For this event, I would like to add information about one of the founders of Futurism.
Palatstseski Aldo (Aldo Palazzeschi) (pseudonym, real name Dzhurlani, Giurlani) Aldo (2.2.1885, Florence, - 17.8.1974, Rome), Italian poet - a futurist and writer. One of the most striking and original figures in Italian literature of XX century. Its still considered to be the greatest poets of our time. Companions called his right hand Timazo Filippo Marinetti and the "banner" of Italian Futurism. Contemporaries considered strange and bizarre.
In 1909, the poet has released one of the first, futuristic-looking, high books, he painted the cover. (Interestingly, in the same year came the famous Manifesto "Italian Futurists.) Book called:
"Poemi di Aldo Palazzeschi." The publisher of a putative Cesare Form (in fact, was the name of a cat, who lived in the poet)., 1909.Firenze.Tipografico Aldino ..
Interestingly the author's autograph on the half-title: Omaggio. Ie 'Daru'.
The book was probably brought to Russia in 1914 Marinetti, along with other books and materials for a gift of the Russian Futurists. The book is rare not only for us but also in Italy.
