Salvatore Quasimodo's works fall roughly into two periods, divided by World War II. His early poems were difficult with their metaphysical and complex imagery. In later works in his humanistic period he was more concerned with the contemporary history, social conditions, horrors of war, and the problems of human suffering. "Pietà, ch'io non sia / senza voci e figure nella memoria un giorno." (from 'Airone morto') Salvatore Quasimodo was born in Modica, a small town near Syracuse, Sicily, as the son of a railway officer. He started to write in his childhood. When his parents felt that technical training would be more practical, Quasimodo moved in his teens to Rome, where he studied engineering at the Polytechnical Institute. Because of financial problems, he left the school in 1923 and then held a number of jobs. In 1926 he was appointed to the government Civil Engineering Department. Quasimodo's brother-in-law, Elio Vittorini, who became a novelist, introduced him to the literary circles. Among his friends were Eugenio Montale , Giuseppe Ungaretti, and Alessandro Bonsati.

Inicio Buscador Las figuras clave de la historia Reportajes Los protagonistas de la actualidad Salvatore Quasimodo (Siracusa, 1901 - N�poles, 1968) Poeta y ensayista italiano que en sus inicios se afirm� como uno de los exponentes m�s significativos del hermetismo, para m�s tarde crear un lenguaje po�tico muy personal con el que profundiz� en la infelicidad humana a trav�s de un clima evocador de viejos mitos. Despu�s de realizar estudios t�cnicos en Messina, con dieciocho a�os se traslad� a Roma para inscribirse en ingenier�a, pero, atra�do por la literatura, abandon� pronto la carrera universitaria. Mientras estudiaba por s� mismo las lenguas latina y griega, ejerci� trabajos tan distintos como dependiente, contable o dise�ador t�cnico. En 1929 se traslad� a Florencia, donde su cu�ado E. Vittorini lo introdujo en los c�rculos literarios y le present� a E. Montale, que enseguida intuy� sus dotes. All� empez� a colaborar en la revista Solaria y a publicar sus primeras colecciones de poes�a. M�s tarde se traslad� a Mil�n, donde inici� su actividad editorial como ayudante de Cesare Zavattini, quien tambi�n le facilit� su incorporaci�n a la redacci�n de la revista Tempo. En 1939 fue nombrado, por m�ritos propios, profesor de literatura italiana del conservatorio Giuseppe Verdi. Entre los numerosos premios que recibi� destacan el San Babila en 1950, el Etna-Taormina junto a D. Thomas en 1958 y, sobre todo, el Nobel de Literatura en 1959.

Compiuti gli studi medi in Sicilia, nel 1919 si trasferisce a Roma, dove si iscrive al Politecnico. Interrompe presto gli studi per problemi economisti e comincia a lavorare (vari impieghi: disegnatore tecnico, commesso, ecc.); intanto studia le lingue classiche da autodidatta. Nel 1926 si impiega presso il Genio Civile e si trasferisce a Reggio Calabria. Nel 1929 s� trasferisce a Firenze, dove Elio Vittorini, suo cognato, lo introduce negli ambienti letterari. L'anno dopo pubblica Acque e terre. Nel 1931 si trasferisce a Imperia dove conosce Sbarbaro, nel 1934 a Milano. Del 1936 � la raccolta Erato e Ap�llion. Nel 1938 si licenzia dal Genio civile e comincia a lavorare nell'editoria. Collabora a �Letteratura� e a �Corrente�, per le cui edizioni pubblica nel 1940 le traduzioni dei Lirici, l'opera sua oggi considerata pi� importante, che subito suscita vivaci clamori. Per chiara fama l'anno dopo � nominato professore di letteratura italiana al Conservatorio di Milano, cattedra che terr� fino alla morte. Gli anni successivi, che lo vedono collaborare a vari quotidiani e periodici, sono scanditi essenzialmente dall'uscita delle altre raccolte poetiche: Ed � subito sera (1942, raccoglie la precedente produzione); vari volumi di traduzioni (dai Vangeli, da Catullo, da Omero); La vita non � sogno (1949); Il falso e vero verde (1956); La terra impareggiabile (1958); Dare e avere (1966). Ottiene vari riconoscimenti che culminano nell'assegnazione del premio Nobel nei 1959, che suscita per� vivaci polemiche in patria. Negli ultimi anni continua l'attivit� di traduttore, compie viaggi all'estero per tenere conferenze; riceve la laurea honoris causa dall'Universit� di Messina nel 1960 e, da quella di Oxford nel 196?. Muore a Napoli per emorragia cerebrale nei 1968.
