Abstract
AbstractThe article discusses the presence of matter (organic as well as inorganic) in twentieth-century Italian poetry. The paper offers a diachronic survey of some exemplary authors and texts (Marinetti, Gozzano, Montale, Giudici, Caproni, and Sereni), highlighting the different utilisations of objects and things within literary texts. Objects and things define spaces and places in subjects’ lives, support their identity, and document various ages and generations. The death of their owners makes things and objects lose their original purpose and find different functions with new subjects. In this context, they appear as miniature eternities always ready for a connection with new subjects.
