About this title

Synopsis

Giacomo Leopardi (1798-1837), the greatest Italian poet after Petrarch and a chief prose writer of the nineteenth century, need no longer be pieced together in English from fragments - Lowell's 'imitations', John Heath-Stubbs's selections, or Patrick Creagh's versions of the Moral Tales. Here is the essential introduction to the poems and prose. J.G. Nichols provides a critical setting and a translation of the complete Canti, glossing difficulties on the page. A selection of passages from Leopardi's prose, keyed to the poems, illuminates their occasions. The volume concludes with a biography, woven out of Leopardi's own words.
