He received a sparse education but was writing distinctive poetry before he was twenty, ignoring the modernist groups which dominated the day. He came at personal themes in unexpected ways, using an unapologetically contemporary idiom. He acquired an antiquarian bookshop which prospered for a time, but his Jewish background placed him at risk with the rise of Fascism. When the Germans took northern Italy in 1943, he and his family went into hiding in Florence where they escaped detection until the Allied liberation. National fame came late in his life. 100 Poems is the most extensive selection of his work so far published in Great Britain. He emerges as one of the great European writers of his time. The book features writing from every period of his writing life. Patrick Worsnip's translations honour the poet's use of traditional Italian forms while using appropriately colloquial diction. -- Back cover. 500 $a Translated from the Italian. 505 00 $a Machine generated contents note: $t Last. $t My Nurse's House -- $t From a Hill -- $t Glauco -- $t Evening -- $t To Mamma -- $t Meditation -- $t A Conscript's Dream -- $t Random Order -- $t Target -- $t After Lights-out -- $t The Sapling -- $t To My Wife -- $t The Nanny Goat -- $t To My Daughter -- $t Autumn -- $t The Stream -- $t Trieste -- $t Old City -- $t The Cat -- $t After Sadness -- $t Three Streets -- $t Our Time of Day -- $t The Poet -- $t The Wife -- $t New Verses to the Moon -- $t Erotic Melancholy -- $t The Pier -- $t After a Stroll -- $t New Verses to Lina (8) -- $t The Errand-boy with the Wheelbarrow -- $t A Memory -- $t Guido -- $t The Patriarch -- $t Caffe Tergeste -- $t The Cobbler -- $t Bedtime Story for My Little Girl -- $t Portrait of My Little Girl -- $t Winter Noon -- $t Envoi -- $t The Thorn of Love (7) -- $t The Thorn of Love (12) -- $t By the Seashore -- $t Morning Song -- $t Finale -- $t Autobiography (3) -- $t Tocography (10) -- $t Autobiography (12) -- $t Autobiography (15) -- $t The Lustful Man -- $t Girls (1) -- $t Paradise Sonnet -- $t The Sideboard -- $t Eros -- $t The Love Song -- $t Prayer for a Poor Girl -- $t Prayer to His Mother -- $t First Fugue -- $t Bargain Eatery -- $t The Ice Cream Cart -- $t Heroics -- $t Words -- $t Snow -- $t Ashes -- $t Spring -- $t Ulysses -- $t Five Poems for the Game of Football (3): Thirteenth Match -- $t Five Poems for the Game of Football (5): Goal -- $t Winter -- $t Happiness -- $t Three Cities -- $t `Fruit & Veg' -- $t Woman -- $t Mouth -- $t Beginning of Summer -- $t Since -- $t When the Thought -- $t February Evening -- $t The Broken Window -- $t Last Verses to Lina -- $t Portrait -- $t Phaedra -- $t Harbour -- $t Women's Swimming Champion -- $t I Had -- $t Teatro degli Artigianelli -- $t Two Madrigals for the Duchess of Aosta -- $t The Visit -- $t I Loved -- $t Mediterranea -- $t Drunken Songs -- $t Three Poems to Telemachus -- $t Ulysses -- $t Opicina 1947 -- $t Epigraph -- $t Blackbird -- $t Nietzsche -- $t Divertimento -- $t Man and the Animals -- $t Last. 600 10 $a Saba, Umberto, $d 1883-1957 $v Translations into English. 600 17 $a Saba, Umberto, $d 1883-1957. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00043000 655 7 $a Translations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423791 655 7 $a Poetry. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781800171947 700 1 $a Worsnip, Patrick, $e translator. $1 https://isni.org/isni/0000000501144214 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117023121.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=06B5F0CAC48911EDAC2163E35EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
