The Italian Department at Georgetown University, in collaboration with the Embassy of Italy and the Istituto Italiano di Cultura, presents a conference by Prof. Tiziana de Rogatis, Università per Stranieri di Siena, Elena Ferrante’s Key Words: Examining the Neapolitan Quartet.

The conference is conceived as an Ariadne's thread of key words, which, like signal lights, can point to the many twists and turns of Ferrante's writing and help us navigate the labyrinth of her international success.
