| Summary: | The present paper deals with the relationship between the "science of myth" and "right-wing culture" in Furio Jesi's (1914-1980) works and intellectual biography. The article describes Jesi's point of view on the presence of metaphysical and political backgrounds in the academic work of some important historians of religion, i. e., Károly Kerényi, Mircea Eliade and Georges Dumézil. The article also summarizes Jesi's epistemological approach concerning the scientific study of myth and mythology, with a particular focus on the concept of what he called the "mythological machine" as well as on his activity as literary critic and essayist. Il presente articulo è dedicato ai rapporti tra "scienza del mito" e "cultura di destra" in Furio Jesi (1914-1980) e affronta la biografia intellettuale dell'autore segundo gli sviluppi del suo pensiero. Il testo descrive e storicizza l'analasi critica delle persistenza de sfondi metafisici e politici nell'opera di alcuni importanti storici delle religioni, come Károly Kerényi, Mircea Eliade e Georges Dumézil. L'articulo si focalizza inoltre sul contrbuto epistemologico di Jesi allo studio scientifico del mito e della mitologia mediante il concetto di "macchina mitologica" e sulla sua attività di critico letterario e saggista. |
