Specifically, she looks at the literary extracts that have been used for the five libretti for Ulisse, Laborintus II, Strofe di Ungaretti, Parole da Beckett, and Ausstrahlung; the related context of European and American experimentalism in music up to the seventies; and compositional techniques in these pieces. She also considers personal and political reasons for the literary choices, the relationship between the text and music, and connections between pieces.
