Latin has no word for jealousy, relying where necessary on the Greek term 'zelotypia', on its translation 'obtrectatio', (15) or more commonly on vague synonyms such as 'timor' which reappear in vernacular poetry.
In "'Il sentimento erroneo': zelotypia, una passione intersoggettiva," Lucamante affronta la tematica della gelosia, passione archetipa che permea il tessuto dell'opera morantiana e ricorre con frequenza assai alta nel testo proustiano.
