Klappentext

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Venetian literature is the corpus of literature in Venetian, the vernacular language of the region roughly corresponding to Venice, from the twelfth century. Venetian literature, after an initial period of splendour in the sixteenth century with the success of artists such as Ruzante, reached its zenith in the eighteenth century, thanks to its greatest exponent, dramatist Carlo Goldoni. Subsequently, the literary production in Venetian underwent a period of decline following the collapse of the Republic of Venice, but survived nonetheless into the twentieth century to reach peaks with wonderful lyrical poets such as Biagio Marin of Grado.
