LUTHER BLISSETT / WU MING

My most recent work (a doctoral dissertation, 2020), “The Dialectical Relationship of Power and Freedom,” centers on the historical novels of Luther Blissett and the Italian author collective, Wu Ming. My aim in this work is to demonstrate how, through a systematic and dialectical process, Luther Blissett and Wu Ming have shown an engaging and politically committed use of literature intended as a “strumento di lotta.” This form of impegno has the potential to contribute to the creation of a form of participatory culture whose very collaborative nature is to shed light on events that have been neglected and/or distorted by the main historical accounts. I am preparing this work for publication in the near future.
