In gondoleta by Antonio Negri
"In gondoleta" by Antonio Negri is a collection of poems written in Venetian dialect, likely composed in the mid-1890s. This lyrical work captures the essence of Venice through its romantic and dreamy stanzas, reflecting on themes of love, beauty, and the enchanting atmosphere of the city's canals. The collection presents a personal perspective on Venetian life and nature, intricately entwined with the poet's emotional experiences. The poems within "In gondoleta" articulate avivid tapestry of romantic imagery and emotional expression. Through a series of verses, the speaker invites a beloved, Nineta, to embark on a gondola ride beneath the moonlight, evoking the tranquil and melancholic beauty of the Venetian lagoon. The poet uses rich imagery and sensory details, celebrating the nuances of love and nature—such as the gentle breeze, the shimmering waters, and the reflective moonlight. Interspersed within the romantic musings are moments of introspection, nostalgia, and philosophical contemplation, revealing the poet's deep connection with both his beloved and the enchanting city of Venice.
