Extractions: Ancora in tenera età, deve seguire il padre in esilio prima a Roma, poi a Bergamo e ad Urbino. Il distacco dalla natia Sorrento provoca in lui grande tristezza e il motivo dell'esilio riecheggerà in molte sue opere. Nel 1559 la famiglia si trasferisce a Venezia, dove Torquato scrive un primo abbozzo di un poema sulle Crociate, il "Gerusalemme"; in seguito si iscrive all'Università di Padova, dove studia filosofia ed eloquenza. A Padova compone il poema cavalleresco "Rinaldo" e le prime poesie amorose, e frequenta l'Accademia degli Eterei. Durante i 7 anni di prigionia scrive poesie e gran parte dei "Dialoghi", e difende il suo poema (pubblicato nel 1581) dalle critiche con alcuni scritti apologetici tra cui l' "Apologia della Gerusalemme" (1585). Nel 1586 l'intervento del Gonzaga porta alla sua scarcerazione e al trasferimento a Mantova, ma ben presto ricomincia a viaggiare. I suoi ultimi anni li trascorre tra Napoli e Roma, scrivendo il poema biblico "Mondo creato" e i "Discorsi del poema eroico" (1594), in cui riprende e modifica in senso pedagogico la teoria del poema epico già trattata nei Discorsi dell'arte poetica. La continua revisione del poema porta alla pubblicazione della "Gerusalemme conquistata" edito nel 1593.

Extractions: Jump to: navigation search Previous (Tornado) Next (Torque) Torquato Tasso Torquato Tasso (March 11, 1544 – April 25, 1595) was an Italian poet of the sixteenth century. He is remembered primarily for two things: he was one of the first of the Italian Romantics , and he was able to merge Italian romances—melodramatic stories of passion and fantasy—with the classical, Latin forms of epic poetry. Of a romantic mindset long before the term "romanticism" had been formally coined, Tasso naturally attracted a great deal of attention from the Romantic poets and writers of the eighteenth- and nineteenth-centuries in northern Europe. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe wrote an epic entitled Torquato Tasso , perhaps altering Tasso's ultimate legacy. Through Goethe, Tasso became, and continues to be—particularly to non-Italian-speaking audiences—a symbol for the "tortured artist." His long, unfortunate, and painful life became a model to many authors of Romanticism for the ideal artist who suffers for his art. It is true that Tasso spent most of his adult life labeled a madman, locked up in prisons or asylums ; but it is important to note that most of Tasso's greatest poetry came in the years of his greatest freedom and clarity.

Extractions: Britannica CD Index Articles Dictionary Help (b. March 11, 1544, Sorrento, Kingdom of Naples [Italy]d. April 25, 1595, Rome), greatest Italian poet of the late Renaissance, celebrated for his heroic epic poem Gerusalemme liberata (1581; "Jerusalem Liberated"), dealing with the capture of Jerusalem during the First Crusade. Tasso was the son of Bernardo Tasso, a poet and courtier, and of Porzia de' Rossi. His childhood was overshadowed by family misfortunes: his father followed the prince of Salerno into exile in 1552; the family estates were confiscated; his mother died in 1556; and there was subsequent litigation about her dowry. Tasso joined his father in Rome in 1554 and two years later at the court of the Duke of Urbino, where he was educated with the duke's son. His imagination had already been fired by stories of the Crusades , and he was struck in 1558 by news of an attack by the Turks on Sorrento, where his sister Cornelia narrowly escaped the accompanying massacre. While in Venice the following year, Tasso began to write an epic in ottava rima (an Italian stanza of eight 11-syllabled lines)
