Giacomo Leopardi is Italy's greatest modern poet, the first European writer to portray and examine the self in a way that feels familiar to us today. A great classical scholar and patriot, he explored metaphysical loneliness in entirely original ways. Though he died young, his influence was enormous, and it is no exaggeration to say that all modern poetry, not only in Italian, derives in some way from his work. Galassi, whose translations of Eugenio Montale have been widely acclaimed, has produced a strong, fresh, direct version of this great poet that offers English-language readers a new approach to Leopardi

Riveduto sull'edizione critica curata da Ottavio Besomi, il testo delle Operette morali si avvale, in questa edizione, dell'introduzione e del commento di Cesare Galimberti. Attraverso una lettura che mette in luce i tratti gnostici della visione di Leopardi, Galimberti restituisce alle Operette il loro carattere di libro metafisico, oggi ritornato prepotentemente all'attenzione negli studi critici sul poeta e pensatore di Recanati

"Giacomo Leopardi was the greatest Italian poet of the nineteenth century and was recognized by readers from Nietzsche to Beckett as one of the towering literary figures in Italian history. To many, he is the finest Italian poet after Dante. He was also a prodigious scholar of classical literature and philosophy, and a voracious reader in numerous ancient and modern languages. For most of his writing career, he kept an immense notebook, known as the Zibaldone, in which Leopardi put down his original, wide-ranging, radically modern responses to his reading"--

Discorso sopra lo stato presente dei costumi deglétaliani by
Giacomo Leopardi(
Book
)
41 editions published between 1988 and 2017 in 5 languages and held by 280 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"Il Discorso sopra lo stato presente dei costumi degl'Italiani, scritto dal ventiseienne Giacomo Leopardi nel 1824 e pubblicato solo nel 1906, mette al centro la scostumatezza della società italiana, manchevole di una sensibilità morale condivisa e ingessata nella memoria di un passato ormai consegnato definitivamente alla storia. In queste pagine, Leopardi non fa professione di progressismo, ma fotografa la mediocre realtà del suo tempo, che oscilla tra la nostalgia per gli antichi fasti della civiltà meridionale a cui apparteneva, e l'incapacità di stare al passo con la modernità settentrionale. Dopo quasi duecento anni dalla composizione del Discorso, i mali denunciati da Leopardi sono ancora tutti presenti e forse persino più gravi. L'Italia, ubriaca del suo glorioso passato, sembra incapace di futuro. È relegata a comparsa sulla scena, a Sud del mondo, provincia, luogo antico destinato irrimediabilmente a perire sotto il peso dei suoi vizi atavici."--
