    La poética del viento en La madre (Grazia Deledda, 1920).
    (Universidad de Murcia, Servicio de Publicaciones., 2024) Aja Sánchez, Pedro Luis
    The narrative of Grazia Deledda (1871-1936), characterized by a psychological approach strongly influenced by romantic-idealistic themes in which Sardinian culture and the landscape play a special role, is built around two essential components: the substrate of primitive civilizations and the expressive function of the natural environment, which are embodied through a powerful symbolic structure. This article analyzes the significant value of the wind in the novel “La madre” (1920), allowing us to delve into the understanding of the compositional procedures that the author commonly employs. Our study employs tools from both the philosophy of language and linguistics—specifically semantics—to approach the understanding of the symbol, as well as its referential and dynamic value.
