En particular, se analizarán las diferentes imágenes que se desprenden del concepto de casa presentes en la novela vinculadas a la melancolía, en las que es posible evidenciar la dicotomía entre el ámbito del hogar y del trabajo que resguarda la ilusión de felicidad doméstica de sus protagonistas. Esta dicotomía permite re&#64258;exionar sobre la hipótesis de análisis acerca de la escisión entre la esfera pública y la privada que afecta a los personajes pertenecientes a las clases medias urbanas de la novela y sobre la función social de esta obra como testimonio histórico de su tiempo. Una re&#64258;exión sobre el sentido de derrota que se desprende de esta novela está en consonancia con el pesimismo que caracteriza a la amplia producción ficcional y ensayística de la obra de Ginzburg, en personajes invadidos por el tedio, cuyas dificultades de formular sus crisis -en este caso- se cristalizan en diferentes mudanzas, a través de las que se proponen escapar de su alienación.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract Natalia Ginzburg&#8217;s (1916-1991) epistolary novel La città e la casa (1984) addresses- as do several of the author&#8217;s late works-the crisis of the traditional institution of the petit bourgeois family. Specifcally, we will address the various images of &#8220;home&#8221; present in the novel that relate to melancholy and alienation, revealing in turn a dichotomy between the home and work environment. This dichotomy allows us to explore the analyzing hypothesis of a division between the public and private spheres that the main characters belonging to the urban middle classes undergo, and this work&#8217;s social role as a historical testimony of its time. This study also intends to explore the sense of defeat that emerges from this novel, as re&#64258;ected by characters invaded by ennui, whose diffculty to formulate their crisis crystallizes in different moves, through which they intend to escape from their alienation.]]></p></abstract>
