Item Number: 135396 Title: Codici e rose. L'erbario di PIERO CALAMANDREI tra storia, fiori e paesaggio Author: Roncarati, Paola ; Rossella Marcucci Price: Not Available ISBN: 9788822263421 Description: Firenze: Olschki, 2015. 24cm., pbk., 200pp. illus. Italian text. Summary: Legal expert, painter, and amateur botanist, Piero Calamandrei collected in his youth samples of wild plants of the regions of Florence and Montepulciano. His later professional and poetical writings echo his 'loving intimacy with the trees and the plants' of the Tuscan territory, that he mainly conceived as a common home. Among the ruins of war, the «flowers friends» renewed the hope that the word 'homeland' could reappear, as 'mysterious and fresh' as ever.
