Giacomo Leopardi

The book is a collection of selected texts from Leopardi's monumental works Zibaldona and Operetta Morali.

The dialogues and essays offer a profound meditation on human existence, depicting life as a struggle between illusions and painful truth. Leopardi does not offer consolation, but calls for a courageous confrontation with meaninglessness through art and introspection. His thought is universal, but also deeply personal, reflecting his life marked by illness and loneliness.
