  • “Drammaticità Di Leopardi” (1938): a Stage on Alberto Savinio's Route To
    ITALIAN MODERN ART | ISSUE 2: “Drammaticità di Leopardi” ISSN 2640-8511 A Stage on Alberto Savinio’s Route to a More “Romantic” Italy "DRAMMATICITÀ DI LEOPARDI" (1938): A STAGE ON ALBERTO SAVINIO'S ROUTE TO A MORE "ROMANTIC" ITALY italianmodernart.org/journal/articles/drammaticita-di-leopardi-1938-a-stage-on-alberto- 0 savinios-route-to-a-more-romantic-italy Martin Weidlich Alberto Savinio, Issue 2, July 2019 ----------https://www.italianmodernart.org/journal/issues/alberto-savinio/· -- Abstract This paper deals with Alberto Savinio’s 1938 conference “Drammaticità di Leopardi,” presupposing the nineteenth-century poet as one of his most important sources. Tracking a hidden self-portrait in Savinio’s homage to Giacomo Leopardi, we encounter the problem of identity and the question of cultural belonging. This key issue seems to unite Savinio with Leopardi: both can be considered as outsiders within their culture, and this status appears to be globally connected with their modernity. Thus, dealing with Savinio and Leopardi promises to provide further understanding of “anti-modern” Italian culture from its margins. Introduction 1 Romantic feeling was once characterized by Alberto Savinio as an “invito a morire,” an “invitation to die.” Perhaps nowhere in Italian literature would Giorgio de Chirico’s younger brother have encountered as near perfect an example of this phenomenon as in Giacomo Leopardi’s “Cantico del Gallo Silvestre” (Song of the great wild rooster ).2 In this work of prose – which formed a part of the nineteenth-century poet’s collection Operette morali (The moral essays; the first group of texts was published in 1827) – a large rooster tells of how everything that exists more or less consciously desires not to be.

  • Giacomo Leopardi (1798-1837) Is Better Known As a Remarkable Poet and Writer Than a Philosophical Thinker
    Vol. 5, no. 1 (2010) Category: Article Written by Geir Sigurðsson Giacomo Leopardi (1798-1837) is better known as a remarkable poet and writer than a philosophical thinker. However, he followed closely the philosophical developments of his time, was profoundly critical of it, and even formulated a rather complex, albeit unsystematic, philosophical response, mainly in his chronological diaries, the Zibaldone di pensieri, but also in many of his novels, dialogues and essays. The aim of this paper is to elucidate the core of Leopardi‘s existential critique of the philosophical views dominating the late eighteenth and the beginning of the nineteenth centuries, in particular those found in German Idealism and Romanticism, and provide an introduction to the Leopardian ‘ultraphilosophy’, as he chose to call it himself, a kind of philosophy meant to overcome the ills of the ‘progressive’ philosophy of his day. I. Romanticism was largely a reaction to the rational and materialist pursuit of modern science and the secularism of the Enlightenment philosophy. In Germany, a number of Romantic poets rejected Immanuel Kant‘s vision of art as being governed by reason, and rather saw art as juxtaposed with nature as a second language communicated by God to the human being. In this way, however, they also joined forces with science and philosophy by attempting to comprehend being, albeit through different means. The ‘productive imagination’, a notion originally coined by Kant in his Kritik der Urteilskraft, was conceived as a basic power of all creative potencies. It was held to simultaneously beget and behold, and that its beheld ideas were no arbitrary occurrences within the subjective mind, but revelations of nature, of the first cause of existence, of the world-spirit, of God.

The writings of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, and Madame Anne-Louise- Germaine de Staël embody what Moe calls a “contrastive structure,” in which the glory of Italy’s past was compared to its decadent present, its natural beauty compared to its human failings, and its “backwardness” contrasted to the modern societies of northern Europe. Yet at the same time, this spectacle of backwardness and human failure could “delight, entertain, regenerate” (16). Foreign denunciations of Italy’s decadence could become a celebration of the “picturesque” (17). Over time, as Moe shows, this same contrastive structure, and this same mixture of de- light and disgust, began to inªltrate Italy’s own representations of its “lower,” southern half. For Risorgimento writers like Carlo Cattaneo and Vincenzo Gioberti, “the south [was] clearly ‘other’” (109).

  • Passacaglia and Lament in Ligeti's Recent Music
    tijdschrift 2004 #9/1/2 22-01-2004 09:16 Pagina 1 stephen taylor Passacaglia and lament in Ligeti’s recent music1 György Ligeti’s music since his opera Le Grand Macabre (1974-77, revised 1996) could be described as a collage of different compositional techniques. Two of the most prominent are passacaglia, and a melodic figure Ligeti calls the ‘lament motive’, based on the descending chromatic scale. Passacaglia and chromatic scales have appeared in Ligeti’s music since his student days, but they have become especially prominent in his recent music. This essay examines the development of these two techniques, focusing on their combination in the Horn Trio and Violin Concerto. These works not only show us how Ligeti uses the same ideas in different contexts; they also provide an overview of his recent compositional technique. Of the various compositional devices that appear in Ligeti’s music since his opera Le Grand Macabre (1974-77), two of the most prominent are the passacaglia and a melodic figure Ligeti calls the ‘lament motive’, based on the descending chromatic scale. Table 1 shows a list of works from the opera to the late 1990s in which these techniques appear. This essay examines the two slow movements that combine them: the fourth movement of the Horn Trio, ‘Lamento’, from 1982, and the fourth move- ment of the Violin Concerto, ‘Passacaglia: Lento intenso’, written a decade later. While both movements have much in common, their differences also highlight how Ligeti’s music has developed since he embarked on his new style in the early 1980s.

  • Thinking the Future in Giacomo Leopardi's Zibaldone
    Thinking the Future in Giacomo Leopardi’s Zibaldone Sabrina Ferri In revealing its utopian vocation, modernity undertook to redefine temporal categories and, in the process, endowed the future with new meaning and significance. In his biography of Charles Baudelaire (1821–67), Jean-Paul Sartre declared that the Romantic poet “lived in a period which had just invented the future […]. After the seventeenth century which rediscovered the past and the eighteenth century which made an inventory of the present, the nineteenth century believed that it had discovered a fresh dimension of time and the world.”1 This was the immeasurable dimension of progress. The tale is well known. As Michel Foucault tells it, the last decades of the eighteenth century were marked by a discontinuity that inaugurated a new epistemic era.2 While empirical forms of knowledge such as philology, biology, and economics defined their disciplinary boundaries, the ways of understanding, organizing, and representing the objects themselves of knowledge changed radically. Principles of succession and analogy replaced the interpretive and descriptive tools of nominalization and contiguity which had been at the basis of the post- Renaissance episteme. Once static or topological, the new order of things became dynamic; it was temporalized.3 Critics such as Reinhart Koselleck and, more recently, François Hartog have drawn attention precisely to the temporal dimension of this reordering of conceptual categories.4 Modernity coincided with a temporalization of human experience. Time became the defining element in the way in which people in the modern world perceived, understood, and conceptualized social and technological transformations. This shift was accompanied by a recalibration of the values and reciprocal relations of past, present, and future.

Although he lived in a secluded town in the ultra-conservative Papal States, he came in touch with the main thoughts of the Enlightenment, and, by his own literary evolution, created a remarkable and renowned poetic work, related to the Romantic era. <b>Biography</b> Giacomo Leopardi was born of a local noble family in Recanati, in the Marche, at the time ruled by the papacy. His father, the count Monaldo Leopardi, was a good-hearted man, fond of literature but weak and reactionary, who remained bound to antiquated ideas and prejudices; his mother, the marquise Adelaide Antici Mattei, was a cold and authoritarian woman, obsessed over rebuilding the family's financial fortunes, which had been destroyed by Monaldo's gambling addiction. At home, a rigorous discipline of religion and savings reigned. However, Giacomo's happy childhood, which he spent with his younger brother Carlo Orazio and his sister Paolina, left its mark on the poet, who recorded his experiences in the poem Le Ricordanze. Leopardi, following a family tradition, began his studies under the tutelage of two priests, but his innate thirst for knowledge found its satisfaction primarily in his father's rich library. Initially guided by Father Sebastiano Sanchini, Leopardi quickly liberated himself by vast and profound readings. He committed himself so deeply to his "mad and most desperate" studies that, within a short time, he acquired an extraordinary knowledge of classical and philological culture—he could fluently read and write Latin, Greek and even Hebrew— but he suffered from the lack of an open and stimulating formal education.
