Elsötétülõ ég alatt. Pasolini szenvedélye
Under Darkening Sky. Psolini's Passion

Summary/Abstract: The essay analyses the link between Pasolini's work and his desperate love for life or 'Passion for Reality', based on pairs of opposites such as love and hate, life and death, creation and destruction, attraction and repulsion, etc. The essay focuses on his highly controversial film adaptation of Euripides's Medea and one of his first short novels Atti impuri (Impure Acts) published only seven years after his death. In Medea we can see the realization of Pasolini's most important theme: the tragic struggle between the old and the new reality, in Atti impuri we can find the personal origins of his mythical approach to both of them.
