Publisher Note

Two proses unpublished in Italy by Rudolf Borchardt (The New Dido, Via del Vento Edizioni, 2023-2024) that are inscribed in a surprising biographical and literary journey of the author, from Pisa to the Medici villas of the Tuscan hinterland to Bremen, revealing an unexpected closeness to the Hanseatic city, and perhaps to the same people who were in contact with the German painter Paula Modersohn-Becker.

A weaver of cultures from Russia to the Mediterranean, a critic of growing mass tourism and its ravages, a profound connoisseur of Dante and the Provençal poets, he can count himself among the last and most fascinating humanists of the twentieth century.
Significantly, research on these materials coincided with the celebration of the 850th anniversary of the founding of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. A place to which Rudolf Borchardt dedicated his major literary-historical work.
