""With all his gravity, he has the secret of lightness." --Italo Calvino" Guido Cavalcanti is best known to English readers through the essays, translations, and adaptations of Ezra Pound. Born from the cultural ferment of 13th-century Florence, Cavalcanti's poetry is an extraordinary blend of unorthodox philosophy, sharp psychological insight, and dazzling formal mastery.

This edition includes pictures and an extensive section about the author's life and works.
