Hardback. Condición: New. The theatrical tragedies of Vittorio Alfieri (1749-1803), Italy's greatest dramatist of the late 1700s, feature themes and elegant verse that perfectly reflect his neoclassical age. Life presents Alfieri's autobiography, detailing a journey that was anything but measured and orderly, giving the modern reader an entertaining and insightful view of privileged life and travel in pre-Napoleonic Europe and the gradual (and late) development of a cultured, literary mind. Alfieri leads us through childhood humiliations in Torino, introductions to popes and sovereigns, love affairs scandalous and noble, Baltic ice storms, treks across Spain, a late-night duel in London, a narrow escape from revolutionary Paris, venereal inconveniences, and the difficulty of breaking into the literary establishment. A stubborn and proud man, Alfieri includes in his memoirs enough self-awareness and self-deprecation to make his character engaging and often sympathetic. This new translation, the first in seventy years, includes footnotes describing places, people, and events largely unfamiliar to twenty-first-century readers plus Alfieri's own appendices - letters, poems, early drafts of scenes - translated into English for the first time.…
