GIACOMO LEOPARDI (1798-1837) was an Italian philosopher, poet, essayist, and philologist.  He is considered the greatest Italian lyric poet of the nineteenth century and one of the most important figures in world literature, as well as one of the principal representatives of literary romanticism.  To many, he is the finest Italian poet after Dante.

At the age of 16 he independently had mastered Greek, Latin, and several modern languages, had translated many classical works, and had written two tragedies, many Italian poems, and several scholarly commentaries.  Excessive study permanently damaged his health; he eventually became blind in one eye and developed a cerebrospinal condition that afflicted him all his life.

Leopardi's genius, his frustrated hopes, and his pain found their best outlet in his poetry, which is admired for its brilliance, intensity, and effortless musicality.  The CANTI is an unsurpassed anatomy of man's unhappiness on earth with its themes of mutability, landscape, and love; and his attitude, one of unflinching realism in the face of unavoidable human loss.  But the manners of the poems are a unique amalgam of philosophical toughness and the lyrically bittersweet.

Leopardi is also widely seen as one of the most radical and challenging thinkers of the 19th century with his constant reflection on existence and on the human condition.  While he remained outside the circles of philosophical debate of his century, Leopardi was able to elaborate an extremely innovative and provocative vision of the world, exploring metaphysical loneliness and pessimism in entirely original ways.  The ZIBALDONE (1898) is a monumental miscellanea of personal impressions, aphorisms, moral reflections and observations, philological analyses, literary criticism and various types of notes which were published posthumously in seven volumes.  It has been called "the greatest intellectual diary of Italian literature", its breadth and depth of thought often compared to the work of Schopenhauer and Nietzsche.
