Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from From the Asolan Hills: A Poem Some fifteen years ago the Italian poet, Carducci, sauntering with a friend over the Asolan hills, turned to him and said: "Your old land is very beautiful and rich in memories; I will write a poem about it." Again some two years later, at Castelfranco, he was stirred to say he would write an ode about Giorgione. The promised poems remain, I believe, unwritten, and Carducci´s friend is dead. But all that moved both on the Asolan heights, overlooking the whole Marca Trivigiana, is there still for the seeing eye, for the living mind, a part of nature, or of the story of the country; and much, if not all of it, imposed itself upon me long before I knew of Carducci´s promise, or of his friend´s enthusiasm so pleasantly expressed in the little book he wrote now ten years ago entitled Asolando: - a title wherein he anticipated that of Mr. Browning´s last volume of verse.
