Eight centuries of Italian poetry

"The poetry of a nation - two hundred and eighty poets in four hundred and eighteen poems and epic details, and the first eight hundred years of a nation's poetry - is read by the reader," began the introduction of his work published in 1957 by András Mihály Rónai. The Italian poetry of the 19th century is no more and no less than the unique and unrepeatable collection of one of the most significant literatures of European culture in Hungarian. The history of Italian literature can be learned from the study and notes accompanying the poems.
