Ada Negri e D’Annunzio: un mancato sodalizio?

Abstract

Ada Negri’s broad culture did not concern Gabriele d’Annunzio, whose name practically never appears in her literary work, nor in her correspondence; however, the influence of the Vate cannot be denied, as the comparative analysis of the works of both writers confirms. May be this lack of associa­tion can be simply ascribed to a lack of empathy between the fiery writer from Lodi and the dandy author from Pescara.
