The Expression of the Inexpressible in Eugenio Montale's Poetry

Metaphor, Negation, and Silence

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Locating the greatest Italian poet of the twentieth century, Eugenio Montale, firmly within European Modernism, this book examines the struggle with language that is central to his work. In its unravelling of the inexpressibility paradox, the book offers a new reading of Montale's early verse, and reveals how in articles and metapoetic comments Montale gives us insights into both his poetics and the whole process of expression.
