This carefully organized sequence of 88 lyrics is a diary of a summer spent in Tuscany—part of the time spent with the Italian actress Eleanora Duse. The poems evoke specific times and places and they conjure up emotions, memories, and myths associated with each place. Beginning in early summer, they move through the seasons, changing in verse form and mood, and always reflecting the sensuous qualities of language.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Gabriele d'Annunzio (1863-1938), the most influential and controversial Italian poet of the 20th century, published his masterpiece "Halcyon" in 1903. It is a carefully organized sequence of 88 lyrics which, to gain their full effect, must be read as a whole. Halcyon is a "solar diary" of a summer spent in Tuscany, part of the time with the legendary Eleanora Duse. The poems evoke specific times and places; more importantly, they conjure up emotions, memories and myths associated with each place. Beginning in early summer, they move through the seasons, changing in verse-form and mood, always delighting in the sensuous qualities of language. J.G. Nicholls's translation makes the richness and subtlety of d'Annunzio's poetry accessible to the English-speaking reader, and his introduction illuminates the complex themes and structure of the work. He provides a full glossary of places and references. J.G.
