Abstract
The work of Carmine Abate is characterised by the presence of certain thematic structures. Among these the motif of a journey should be emphasised, which plays an important role in the writer’s novel, Scanderberg’s Motorcycle, analysed in the article. Apart from the journey, another key structure appears in the work — that of identity. The aim of the text is to demonstrate the relation between the past and the present. Abate sketches this issue in the light of the influence which a journey exerts on identity.
