«Inni alla notte - Canti spirituali» is Novalis's poetry collection, published by Garzanti in paperback (176 pages, bilingual German-Italian edition).
The volume brings together two poetic cycles by Novalis: 'Hymns to the Night' (1800) arises from the death of his fiancée, Sophie von Kühn, and turns night into a mystical threshold to the eternal, against the clarity of day; 'Spiritual Songs' (1799) seeks with deep musicality the unity between the natural and the supernatural.
The volume belongs to Garzanti's 'I grandi libri' collection and includes the Italian translation by Giovanna Bemporad.
For readers of Romantic poetry and German Romanticism who want to compare the original German text with the Italian translation.
Georg Philipp Friedrich Freiherr von Hardenberg, better known by his pen name Novalis, was a German aristocrat and polymath, who was a poet, novelist, philosopher and mystic. He is regarded as an influential figure of Jena Romanticism.
