Description

First edition of this radical reworking of Saba's Canzoniere, published in 1921, now out of print and to be updated with the poetic production of the last twenty years. After some partial publications by Treves (Figure e canti in 1926 and Tre compositi in 1933) and Carabba (Parole in 1934), Saba constructed this new edition with Einaudi, which was published during the publishing house's Roman parenthesis, on 31 August 1945. The print run was 2900 unnumbered copies (10 on selected paper for the poet's friends and a few hundred hardbacks). The preface, signed “L'Editore”, is by Giacomo Debenedetti: “We have decided to publish, in a difficult moment for publishing, all of Umberto Saba's poetic works... because we believe that, for once, useless beauty can teach something in a time in which the problem for man is either to find himself or to accept irreparable ruin”
