Quotes Son nate nella selva del convento dei cappuccini, tra le morte foglie che al ceppo delle quercie agita il vento. Si respira una dolce aria che scioglie le dure zolle, e visita le chiese di campagna, ch'erbose hanno le soglie. un'aria d'altro luogo e d'altro mese e d'altra vita: un'aria celestina che regga molte bianche ali sospese. https://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/305328.Giovanni_Pascoli External links https://www.treccani.it/enciclopedia/giovanni-pascoli_(Dizionario-Biografico) Giuseppe Nava PASCOLI, Giovanni 81 41750 Giovanni Pascoli Giovanni Pascoli 1462 Category:1855 births Category:1912 deaths Category:Socialists from Italy Category:Italian male poets Category:Deaths from liver cancer in Italy Category:People from the Province of Forlì-Cesena Category:Deaths from cancer in Emilia-Romagna Category:University of Bologna alumni Category:Academic staff of the University of Bologna Category:Academic staff of the University of Messina Category:Italian Freemasons Category:19th-century Italian poets Category:20th-century Italian poets Category:Neo-Latin poets Category:19th-century writers in Latin Category:20th-century writers in Latin Category:Latin-language writers from Italy Category:19th-century Italian male writers Category:20th-century Italian male writers
