I Violenti (1884-1885)
Excerpt from I Violenti (1884-1885)
Chiudi! Chiudi l - grido il vecchio, con un moto di terrore. - Mio figlio dov' è?
Egli ansava, sul letto, affogato dalla pingue dine, incapace di levarsi poichè aveva tutta la inferior parte del corpo impedita dalla paralisia. Un continuo tremor paralitico gli agitava i mu scoli del collo, i gomiti, le ginocchia. Le sue mani posavano sul lenzuolo, contorte e nodose, per la mostruosità della chiragra, come radici. Un sudore abondante gli stillava dalla fronte e dal cranio calvo, rigandogli la larga faccia che era d' un color roseo disfatto, sottilissima mente venato di vermiglio come la milza dei buoi.

About the author
Gabriele d'Annunzio
1,051 books289 followersGabriele D'Annunzio, Prince of Montenevoso (12 March 1863 – 1 March 1938), was an Italian poet, playwright, orator, journalist, aristocrat, and army officer during World War I. He occupied a prominent place in Italian literature from 1889 to 1910 and later political life from 1914 to 1924. He was often referred to under the epithets Il Vate ("the Poet") or Il Profeta ("the Prophet").
D'Annunzio combined in his work naturalism, symbolism, and erotic images, becoming the best interpreter of European Decadence in post-Risorgimento Italy.
His love affairs, relationship with the world-famous actress Eleanora Duse, heroic adventures during World War I, and his occupation of Fiume in 1919 made him a legend in his own time.
