Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

The most comprehensive collection in English of the founder of
modern Italian poetry Giovanni Pascoli (1855-1912)-the founder of
modern Italian poetry and one of Italy's most beloved poets-has
been compared to Robert Frost for his evocation of natural speech,
his bucolic settings, and the way he bridges poetic tradition and
the beginnings of modernism. Featuring verse from throughout his
career, and with the original Italian on facing pages, Selected
Poems of Giovanni Pascoli is a comprehensive and authoritative
collection of a fascinating and major literary figure. Reading this
poet of nature, grief, and small-town life is like traveling
through Italy's landscapes in his footsteps-from Romagna and
Bologna to Rome, Sicily, and Tuscany-as the country transformed
from an agrarian society into an industrial one. Mixing the
elevated diction of Virgil with local slang and the sounds of the
natural world, these poems capture sense-laden moments: a train's
departure, a wren's winter foraging, and the lit windows of a town
at dusk. Incorporating revolutionary language into classical
scenes, Pascoli's poems describe ancient rural dramas-both large
and small-that remain contemporary. Framed by an introduction,
annotations, and a substantial chronology, Taije Silverman and
Marina Della Putta Johnston's translations render the variety,
precision, and beauty of Pascoli's poetry with a profoundly current
vision.
