Sobre IBD

This collection presents a curated selection of letters and sonnets by Pietro Aretino, one of the most outspoken literary figures of the Italian Renaissance. Known for his fearless satire and sharp pen, Aretino corresponded with statesmen, artists, and royalty, offering vivid portraits of 16th-century European life. His sonnets, many deeply personal and reflective, highlight both the formal skill and emotional power that marked his work. With translations and a critical essay by Samuel Putnam, this edition contextualizes Aretino’s controversial reputation and lasting literary influence.

Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....
