Synopsis
Explore how Italian poets revived and adapted classical metres to shape a new poetic language.
This scholarly study traces the revival of Latin and Greek meters in Italian poetry from the 15th century through the early 1800s. It surveys key figures, publications, and debates that moved Italian verse toward quantitative forms, while examining the influence of Horace, Chiabrera, and Carducci.

- Shows how early editors sparked sustained interest in classical metres
- Discusses debates over Italian quantity versus accent in verse
- Charts the development and reception of notable imitations and guides
