Colloqui
'Colloqui' Summary
“I Colloqui” is a collection of poems by Guido Gozzano, an Italian poet who wrote in the early 20th century. The poems are divided into three sections: “The Youthful Error,” “At the Threshold,” and “The Veteran.” The first section, “The Youthful Error,” deals with the themes of youthful idealism and disillusionment. The poems in this section are often characterized by a sense of nostalgia and longing for a lost past. “At the Threshold” explores the themes of love, loss, and the passage of time. The poems in this section are often more introspective and melancholic in tone. The final section, “The Veteran,” deals with the themes of aging, death, and the search for meaning in life. The poems in this section are often more philosophical and contemplative in nature. Gozzano's poems are characterized by their irony, their melancholic mood, and their use of symbolism. They are often seen as a reflection of the anxieties and uncertainties of his time, but they also offer a timeless meditation on the nature of human experience.Book Details
