Description
Edition of 1911 of I colloqui, the famous poetic collection by Guido Gozzano (1883–1916), published in Milan by Fratelli Treves Editori.
The copy belongs to the second thousand, as expressly indicated on the title page, and dates from the same year as the work’s first publication.
I colloqui represents one of the foundational texts of Italian crepuscular poetry and one of the most significant works of early twentieth-century literature.
The collection comprises 24 poetic pieces, divided into three sections: Il giovenile errore, Alle soglie and Il reduce.
Among the most famous poems are La signorina Felicita ovvero la Felicità, L’amica di nonna Speranza and Totò Merùmeni.
Through an ironic and melancholy prose, Gozzano tells of disillusionment, memory, unfulfilled loves, and bourgeois everyday life, moving away from the rhetoric of D’Annunzio’s poetry.
Characteristics of the copy
Particularly interesting the original publisher’s softcover with illustration by Leonardo Bistolfi, an important sculptor and Italian Symbolist artist.
The cover features a reclining female figure, rendered with a drawing in gray-green tones, accompanied by the title and publishing data printed in red.
The volume retains both boards of the original softcover and the spine with publishing titles.
Conservation status
Copy in fair condition, with evident signs of time and use.
The original softcover shows widespread foxing, yellowing, abrasions and small losses, particularly visible at the corners and along the margins.
The spine appears worn and weakened, with tears, small losses and traces of previous repairs.
There are creases and signs of wear also on the cover boards.
The inner pages appear overall well preserved, with natural yellowing of the paper and occasional small stains.
