Poet Giosuè Carducci was the first Italian Nobel laureate in literature. Not that #Italy had to wait a long time for it: it was awarded in its 6th year, in 1906. His work is in the public domain, so I thought I'd try his masterpiece, Barbarian Odes, in their French translation corrected by the author. The poems are quite classical in form & subject, & reject Romanticism. Some were moving, some I found a tad ridiculous.
