This essay – presented at the XI Leonardo Sciascia Colloquium «Sciascia primo, ultimo e postumo» which took place online on the 19th and 20th of November 2020 – reconstructs the genesis of a project to create a collection of dialogues, conceptualised by Domenico Porzio in collaboration with Leonardo Sciascia. The resulting volume, Fuoco all’anima, appeared in 1992 and was doubly posthumous and doubly unfinished. This essay seeks to reconstruct the hypothetical profile of a book which remained only virtual, drawing on unpublished documentation from the journalist’s archive, currently housed at the Fondazione Arnoldo e Alberto Mondadori in Milan, and on some of his articles which make direct reference to the project.

This essay – presented at the XI Leonardo Sciascia Colloquium «Sciascia primo, ultimo e postumo» which took place online on the 19th and 20th of November 2020 – reconstructs the genesis of a project to create a collection of dialogues, conceptualised by Domenico Porzio in collaboration with Leonardo Sciascia. The resulting volume, Fuoco all’anima, appeared in 1992 and was doubly posthumous and doubly unfinished. This essay seeks to reconstruct the hypothetical profile of a book which remained only virtual, drawing on unpublished documentation from the journalist’s archive, currently housed at the Fondazione Arnoldo e Alberto Mondadori in Milan, and on some of his articles which make direct reference to the project.
