Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on the intersection of willpower and religious sentiment in the life and works of Vittorio Alfieri, an illustrious Italian poet and playwright of the 18th century. The author examines how the concept of the will takes precedence over all other faculties in Alfieri's characters, and how this preoccupation with will and determination permeates his works. The book also explores the scant attention Alfieri paid to religion and religious doctrine in his writings, despite living in a time of significant religious fervor. By analyzing Alfieri's works and personal life, the author sheds light on the complex interplay between volontà and religious sentiment in the writer's thought and art. This book is essential reading for scholars of Italian literature and history, as well as anyone interested in the relationship between personal agency and belief. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
