I Gemelli come specchi viventi

The figure of the twins is an archetype that crosses different cultural environments. In this article we have outlined a possible mapping of the declination of the subject of the twins, so rich in implications and closely connected with double, identified primarily by psychoanalytic studies and in-depth just from the analysis of some creative texts. An attempt was therefore a game of findings among some literary works and other works relating to the sphere of the visual arts, both painting and sculpture, and photography to cinema.
