Literary Style
The poetry of Margherita Guidaacci is deeply spiritual but not in the religious sense, rather her poems include profound sentiments and view of life as a search for regeneration, for a resurrection from death. Guidacci regarded life as a passage and its desolation and pain a means toward transformation beyond death.

Famous quotes containing the words literary and/or style:
“There are in me, in literary terms, two distinct characters: one who is taken with roaring, with lyricism, with soaring aloft, with all the sonorities of phrase and summits of thought; and the other who digs and scratches for truth all he can, who is as interested in the little facts as the big ones, who would like to make you feel materially the things he reproduces.”
—Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
“The difference between style and taste is never easy to define, but style tends to be centered on the social, and taste upon the individual. Style then works along axes of similarity to identify group membership, to relate to the social order; taste works within style to differentiate and construct the individual. Style speaks about social factors such as class, age, and other more flexible, less definable social formations; taste talks of the individual inflection of the social.”
—John Fiske (b. 1939)
