Risultati per "delle donne" in Poesia

È un canzoniere d’amore Donna cometa di Ernesto Franco, uomo e poeta costretto a fare i conti con il congedo. Congedo da un preciso referente lirico – il «tu» di queste poesie, o la donna, che come la cometa passa, illumina e finisce – ma non per questo congedo dal tempo e dal viaggio di vita e poesia, se è vero che nei 47 frammenti del libro l’io lirico segue, quasi imita per mimesi, la forma breve o brevissima del nostro «immenso camminare».

John Donne, Andrew Marvell, George Herbert, Thomas Carew, and Henry Vaughan: these were some of the 17th-century writers who devised a new form of poetry full of wit, intellect and grace, which we now call Metaphysical poetry. They wrote about their deepest religious feelings and their carnal pleasures in a way that was radically new and challenging to their readers. Their work was largely misunderstood or ignored for two centuries, until 20th-century critics rediscovered it, finding in it a deep originality and a willingness to experiment.
