Cesare Pavese in Spain. The 1971 anthology of poetry
Keywords:
Anthology of poetry, Cesare Pavese, José Agustín Goytisolo, comparatism.
Abstract
This work analyzes the corpus of poetry selected by José Agustín Goytisolo in his famous Anthology of Cesare Pavese’s poems, published in Barcelona in 1971 by Seix Barral. This study demostrates that the selection made by the Spanish poet falsifies the activity of the great Italian writer because the corpus chosen by Goytisolo favours an emotional and decadent image of Pavese. The Goytisolo’s anthology avoids his more realistic, annoying and “revolutionary” aspect, according with the lyrical parameters of the Italian ermetismo, the prevailing movement of poetry in Italy in the thirties.Downloads
