At the Year's Turning

Besides poetry by Irish writers, this book includes 10 of Leopardi's major poems from "Tutte le opere" (Florence : Sansoni, 1969) with English translations by Eamon Grennan. Also included are the first two critical items on Leopardi published in Ireland: an anonymous review of a French article written by F. Bourbon del Monte published in "Le correspondant", July, 1862, and a lecture by Owen O'Ryan on February 16, 1882 (published in 1883).
