Nota su Andrea Zanzotto e la sua lunga ‘digestione’ di d’Annunzio

Abstract

“Before I was fifteen I had already ʻeatenʼ Pascoli and D’Annunzio...”, writes 32-year-old Andrea Zanzotto in a letter to Giuseppe Ungaretti. In this brief statement we can take the food metaphor literally, and ask ourselves whether d’Annunzio was better digested than Pascoli or vice versa; whether the Dannunzian dish was taken off the menu or just set aside due to its overt supermanhood, to the unacceptable public figure of the poet hero. Or whether, on the contrary, d’Annunzio’s work was considered as food to be occasionally tasted and chewed here and there again, for the incomparable ʻsearch for sonorities so new to the point of the absurdʼ.
