Petru Giovacchini - Works

Works

The literary works of Petru Giovacchini were:

  • Musa Canalinca (1929)
  • Rime notturne (1930)
  • Aurore, poesie corse (1936)
  • Corsica Nostra (1942)
  • Archiatri pontifici corsi (1951)

The Corsican Italians who promoted the ideal of Corsican irredentism published mainly in Italy, because of the persecutions from the French regime in the island. This was the case of Petru Giovacchini, who (after his initial poems Musa canalinca and Rime notturne, done when young) wrote his main literary works in Italy.

Indeed, he wrote Aurore, poesie corse in 1936 in Livorno, followed by Corsica nostra and the Archiatri pontifici corsi in 1942 and 1951 in Rome (the last, just a few years before his premature death).

Famous quotes containing the word works:

    Most works of art, like most wines, ought to be consumed in the district of their fabrication.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    The hippopotamus’s day
    Is passed in sleep; at night he hunts;
    God works in a mysterious way—
    The Church can sleep and feed at once.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    He never works and never bathes, and yet he appears well fed always.... Well, what does he live on then?
    Edward T. Lowe, and Frank Strayer. Sauer (William V. Mong)
