" Premier ouvrage en français consacré à cet immense artiste (1877-1959) qui est l'un des plus grands et des plus étranges artistes autrichiens de ce siècle.

Peraltro, volume in ottimo stato (nice copy). Nel corso della sua vita Yves Bonnefoy ha concentrato il proprio interesse sullo studio della civiltà italiana, vale a dire dell'arte e della poesia di un paese che ha finito col considerare come la sua seconda patria. Lo mostrano i suoi libri e tutta una serie di scritti più brevi, dedicati ad autori compresi tra il primo Rinascimento e il pieno Novecento, in quella sorta di particolarissimo territorio della mente e dell'immaginazione che va da Piero della Francesca a Tiepolo e Leopardi. Il volume nasce dall'intento di Bonnefoy di riunire questi saggi di argomento italiano, con l'aggiunta di un'Introduzione e di un importante capitolo sulla Flagellazione di Piero della Francesca e i suoi enigmi, completamente inediti.
