This essay focuses on an article by Ippolito Nievo entitled “Il poeta Bürger e le sue tre mogli” [Bürger the poet and his three wives] (Corriere delle Dame, March 1860), in which he traces the tormented vicissitudes of love concerning the famous German poet. Having identified Nievo’s source to be an article written by the Socialist author and journalist Benjamin Gastineau, entitled “Les femmes du poète” (Bulletin de la Societé des gens de lettres, January 1859), this essay analyses the ideological and stylistic strategies adopted by Nievo in yet another example of his rewritings.
