“Translating Pasolini Translating Paul”
A lecture by Professor Elizabeth Castelli, Professor and Chair of the Religion Department at Barnard College.
Not long before his untimely death in the mid-1970s and following on his masterpiece “The Gospel According to St. Matthew”, Italian Marxist cultural worker and filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini wrote a script for a film about Saint Paul that was never produced. This lecture, given by esteemed Professor Elizabeth Castelli, the English translator of Pasolini’s Italian original, situates Saint Paul in the broader framework of Pasolini’s oeuvre and considers how this script relates to the more recent interest in Paul’s letters among continental philosophers.
