Ugo Foscolo (1778–1827)
Author of Last Letters of Jacopo Ortis
About the Author
Ugo Foscolo was a truly international literary figure, drawing inspiration from many lands. He translated Laurence Sterne's A Sentimental Journey, produced a prose masterpiece in his Last Letters of Jacopo Ortis and wrote a poetic masterpiece, On Sepulchres (1807), which celebrates the great show more figures of Italy's past. Of the height of poetic inspiration in this last work, Giosue Carducci would later say that there is a "fusing together in a single sublime choral harmony the accents of sermon and hymn, elegy and satire, tragedy and epic."
