 Reality and Imagination, the Potrait of Solitude, Suffering, Desperation and Exclusion, through the Existential Conscoiusnees in the Man’s CharacterElda Talka European Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies Articles, 2015, vol. 1 Abstract: Federigo Tozzi is a Classical Modern Italian writer of the Italian Literature in the early XXth century. The novel analyzed, The Clocks, is written by him and the central character is Bernardo Lotti a man who lives alone in his existence surrounded by clocks that are hanged on the walls around the house. The existential melancholy, ineptitude and loss, painful conception of the character’s life are the demonstration of the XXth century’s crisis in Europe and Italy. The writer tries to be evident with the modern myth of the impossibility of life between consciousness and the reality. The objects in this novel are vitalized and life was given to them. The character is seen through the mechanism of glance and the metaphoric use of the reality, an objective description by the writer and subjective interpretation of the consciousness from Bernardo. In the horizontal plane we have a slow trend and in the vertical plane a fast style, concentrated, with ellipsis of verbs. Keywords: solitude; suffering; desperation; existential; malaise.
