The Diversity of I Novissimi · In the discussion on Italian poetry and poetics between the fifties and the seventies the so far obvious lyrical nature of poetry is being brought into doubt under the suggestion of the new epic trend brought about in Anglo-American Modernism by Eliot’s The Waste Land and Pound’s Cantos. Curi’s essay, through Anceschi’s influential study on Anglo-American poetics and also through Rizzardi’s important study and translation of Pound’s Pisan Cantos, takes into consideration the Italian side of this new anti-lyrical epic trend, with its effects on the various types of reduction of the lyrical Ego shown by the poetry of the 'Novissimi’, the ‘Gruppo 63’, Sanguineti’s Laborintus, and the poetry of Pagliarani, Balestrini, Giuliani, and Porta.
