Abstract
This monograph presents the first critical and annotated edition of Invettive e licenze (Garzanti, 1971), Dario Bellezza’s debut collection and a landmark in late twentieth-century Italian poetry. Drawing on unpublished manuscripts and documents from the Bellezza Archive, the study reconstructs the collection’s genetic evolution through philological analysis, revealing a broad intertextual framework. The edition thereby demonstrates how Bellezza forged a poetics rooted in literary and everyday language as well as sexuality, dissolving the boundary between the living and the poetic body.
