Discover the brilliant mind of Giacomo Leopardi, Italy's greatest 19th-century poet, in this groundbreaking English translation of his epic Zibaldone.Hailed as one of the most significant literary figures in Italian history, Giacomo Leopardi's influence spans generations, from Nietzsche to Beckett. His Canti, masterfully translated by Jonathan Galassi, solidified his status as the finest Italian poet after Dante. However, Leopardi's genius extended beyond poetry; he was a prodigious scholar of classical literature and philosophy, and an avid reader in multiple ancient and modern languages.Throughout his career, Leopardi kept an extensive notebook called the Zibaldone, or "hodge-podge," as described by Harold Bloom. This monumental work, spanning over 4,500 pages, contains Leopardi's original and radically modern thoughts on religion, philosophy, language, history, anthropology, astronomy, literature, poetry, and love. The Zibaldone, only published at the turn of the 20th century, has been recognized as a foundational text of modern culture.Now, for the first time, a team led by Michael Caesar and Franco D'Intino of the Leopardi Centre in Birmingham, England, has produced a comprehensive and lively English translation of the Zibaldone. This extraordinary publication promises to reshape our understanding of 19th-century culture and thought.
