Carcano, Giulio

    0.01 sec.

Carcano, Giulio (1812-1884)

Italian poet and novelist. His novels and collections of short stories, often dealing with domestic life, include Racconti semplici (1843), Damiano (1850), Dodici novelle (1853), and Gabrio e Camilla (1874). His collections of poetry include Poesie edite ed inedite (1861-70) and Poesie varie (1875).

He was a follower of the romantic historical novelist Alessandro Manzoni, but Carcano's first works were poems: Ida della torre (1834) and Angiola Maria (1839). He took part in the fight for the freedom and unification of Italy, and spent some time in exile. He also wrote tragedies, including Spartaco (1857), Ardoino (1860), and Valentina (1870), and translated Shakespeare into Italian 1874-82.
