Edorado Sanguineti Bücher

Edoardo Sanguineti war eine zentrale Figur der italienischen Literatur und führte in den 1960er Jahren die neoavantgardistische Bewegung Gruppo 63 an. Sein Werk zeichnet sich durch kühne sprachliche und formale Experimente aus, die die Grenzen des literarischen Ausdrucks verschieben. Neben seinen eigenen Schöpfungen war er auch ein produktiver Übersetzer bedeutender Dramatiker und klassischer Autoren. Sanguinetis Vermächtnis liegt in seinem unermüdlichen Streben nach künstlerischer Innovation und seiner tiefen Auseinandersetzung mit der transformativen Kraft der Worte.

Edoardo Sanguineti (1930 - 2010) was born in Genoa where he was for many years Professor of Italian Literature. His many awards and distinctions include the prestigious Premio Campiello for lifetime achievement. The most important poet of the avant-garde Gruppo 63 movement (which included Umberto Eco and Giorgio Manganelli), Sanguneti was also the translator of poetry by Joyce, Shakespeare, Brecht and a number of Latin and Greek writers. In addition to poems he wrote two novels, Capriccio Italiano / Italian Caprice (1963), and Il Giuoco dell'Oca / Snakes and Ladders (1967), as well as a number of plays; but it is as the author of playful, even exuberantly inventive poems that he is best known. Libretto was first published in 1998 and was his first book-length appearance in the English language.
