A Selection of Modern Italian Poetry in Translation
Author: Roberta L. Payne

Publisher: McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
Release Date: 2004
What was Italian poetry like in the years of extraordinary historical, intellectual, aesthetic, and spiritual change between the 1860s and the Unification of Italy in the 1960s? In A Selection of Modern Italian Poetry in Translation Roberta Payne provides a bilingual collection of ninety-two poems by thirty-five Italian poets, including works of classicism and passionate decadentism, examples of crepuscularism, and poetry by Ungaretti, Montale, and Quasimodo. Payne pays particular attention to poets of the fifties and sixties, futurists, and female poets. She notes that the futurists, who have rarely been translated, were particularly important as they were truly original, attempting to develop new notions of word, line, sound, and phrase. Such new notions make translating them particularly challenging. She also offers a large sampling from poets of the fifties and sixties, many of whom have won the Viareggio Prize. Poems by women in this volume reflect diverse schools and directions while maintaining a distinctly female voice. Containing the original Italian and the translation side-by-side, this volume offers a wonderful introduction to Italian poetry to scholars and general readers alike.
Poesia e Filosofia

Sentiments can revive or destroy the spirit. This short collection of poems arose from the feelings I experienced after my mother’s death. The poems reflect my state of mind that progressed from sorrow to being able to embrace and enable myself to see the light in the darkness. My faith and my personal philosophy sustained me and transformed my thoughts into a promising and happier reality. Although this book emerged through the pain of death, the expression and realization of positive thoughts have led to the survival of the soul in a tangible form.
