El canto de las sirenas es una novela de la autora italiana Maria Corti, publicada en 1989. La historia, ambientada en Otranto en el siglo XIV, sigue a un joven pintor y navegante fascinado por las marinas. A través de un estilo narrativo refinado y personalísimo, Corti explora temas como la seducción del conocimiento y el encuentro con lo desconocido. La novela ha sido galardonada con el premio Cesare Pavese.
Maria Corti was an Italian philologist, literary critic, and novelist. Considered one of the leading literary scholars of post-World War II Italy, she was awarded numerous prizes including the Premio Campiello for the entire body of her work. Her works of fiction were informed by her literary scholarship but also had a distinctly autobiographical vein, particularly her Voci del nord-est (1986) and II canto delle sirene (1989). For most of her career she was based at the University of Pavia where she established the Fondo Manoscritti di Autori Moderni e Contemporanei, an extensive curated archive of material on modern Italian writers.
