Beschreibung

Discover the soul of Trieste through the timeless verse of Umberto Saba, one of Italy's greatest poets. This collection, featuring 100 of Saba's most evocative poems, offers a profound exploration of love, loss, and the human condition.

Patrick Worsnip's masterful translations capture the essence of Saba's unique voice, bringing his poignant reflections on Jewish heritage, war, and everyday life to a new audience. Perfect for readers of poetry and Italian literature, this anthology provides a window into the heart of a poet who, despite his modernist contemporaries, remained true to his own distinct vision. Experience the lyrical beauty and emotional depth of Umberto Saba's world.

Über den Autor

After reading Classics and Modern Languages at Merton College, Oxford, Patrick Worsnip worked for more than forty years as a correspondent and editor for Reuters news agency, with postings in Italy, Russia, Poland, Iran, Lebanon, the US, and the UK. Since retiring in 2012, he has devoted himself to translation from Italian and Latin, and to magazine articles on Italian poetry. He divides his time between Cambridge and Umbria, Italy. He is married, with one son. Umberto Saba was born Umberto Poli in 1883. He married Carolina Woelfler in 1909, and their only child, Linuccia, was born the following year. Their financial problems were eased when Saba bought a bookshop in Trieste in 1919. The first edition of his great Canzoniere, 'a sort of Odyssey of man in our times', was published at his own expense in 1921. He described his as a life which was 'relatively poor in external events but rich, at times excruciatingly so, in emotions and inner resonances.' He died in Gorizia in 1957.
