Description

Trapped between an admiration for the classical past and a disappointment in the impoverished present, Leopardi rejected both the easy allure of Catholic faith and the unbridled optimism proposed by science and the Enlightenment.

His unflinching pessimism and existential resolve, here brilliantly rendered in verse by prize-winning translator J.G.

Nichols, make him one of the most fascinating and best-loved Italian poets.
