Pre-Owned Six Memos for the Next Millennium (The Charles Eliot Norton Lectures 1985-86) (Paperback) 0679742379 9780679742371
Product Description

One of the most rigorously presented and beautifully illustrated critical testaments in all of literature. -- Boston Globe A brilliant original approach to literature a key to Calvino s own work and a thoroughly delightful and illuminating commentary on some of the world s greatest writing. -- San Francisco Chronicle At the time of his death Italo Calvino was at work on six lectures setting forth the qualities in writing he most valued and which he believed would define literature in the century to come. Here in Six Memos for the Next Millennium are the five lectures he completed forming not only a stirring defense of literature but also an indispensable guide to the writings of Calvino himself. He devotes one memo each to the concepts of lightness quickness exactitude visibility and multiplicity drawing examples from his vast knowledge of myth folklore and works both ancient and modern. Readers will be astonished by the prescience of these lectures which have only gained in relevance as Calvino s next millennium has dawned.
