The Center for Italian Studies at the University of ������Ƶsylvania will celebrate the poetry of Guido Gozzano (1883-1916) with an international conference to be held in Philadelphia October 29-30, 2015.��

Felice Casorati, Il sogno del melograno (1912), private collection

��

Is Gozzano the last poet of the Nineteenth Century or the fist one of the Twentieth Century? The conference deals with this ambivalence. Gozzano unbalances the relations between memory and innovation. Without participating in the European avant-gardes, he challenges the traditional statute of literature and creates the new authorial figure of a poet who moves out of his own poetry, looking at it with an external and ironic gaze.
