Italian Environmental Literature: An Anthology Summary
| This collection brings together for the first time - in Italy or for an English-speaking audience - a collection of over 40 authors from the deep and broad tradition of Italian environmental writing. Poetry and prose, the essay, political and economic thought, and the new visual arts are represented in this anthology. All of the represented authors have lived and written within the past century and a half and include Corrado Alvaro, Mariella Bettarini, Virginio Bettini, Giuseppe Bonaviri, Italo Calvino, Dino Campana, Antonio Cederna, Gianni Celati, Laura Conti, Gabriele D'Annunzio, Gianna Manzini, Tonino Guerra, Carlo Levi, Daria Menicanti, Eugenio Montale, Luciana Notari, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Carlo Sgorlon, Ignazio Silone, Mario Rigoni Stern, Alfredo Todisco, Giuseppe Ungaretti, and Andrea Zanzotto. ".this remarkable anthology fosters and renews the dialogue between Italian and American literature that has long proven so fruitful, and that has never been more urgent than it is today." - John Elder, co-editor of the "Norton Book of Nature Writing" "Nature and culture are both astoundingly complex realms within the small "boot" called the Italian nation, as this most welcome anthology makes clear." - Rebecca West, University of Chicago "Patrick Barron and Anna Re have carefully assembled a variety of voices to sing praise and pain about the Italian landscape. Collectively, they give us a fresh look at an ancient country and culture, affirming that there is no single way to see Italian landscape any more than there is just one way to see Mount Fuji. Bless them for this effort." - Gary Paul Nabhan, author of "Songbirds, Truffles and Wolves" |
