This enquiry focuses on the use of a peculiar rhetorical figure in an exemplar literary text of the famous German poet Goethe. We will try to point out the allegorical function of the scene dedicated to the «Mothers’ Kingdom», in his <em>Faust II </em>as a powerful poetical meta-reflection on imagination, cognition and poetics itself.</p></td></tr></tbody></table></div>}, number={8}, journal={ENTHYMEMA}, author={Pulvirenti, Grazia and Gambino, Renata}, year={2013}, month={giu.}, pages={83–95} }
