Italian critic. Born in Florence. Based on the magazine Ronda (1919-23), which he founded with Caldarelli, Bacchelli and others, he developed a new trend in criticism that broke away from Croce's framework, and contributed book reviews and essays to the literary columns of various Italian newspapers for a long time. He was an expert in short prose that aimed for refinement and clarity of form using elaborate techniques, and produced a wealth of results that became a typical example of modern Italian prose criticism. He was a pioneer in the study and translation of not only contemporary Italian literature, but also English and American literature, and left behind many excellent works in a wide range of genres, including art criticism and travelogues to various countries. His theories on authors and works are currently collected in the large volume Italian Literature of the 1900s (1972). Another notable achievement is the nine-volume Garzanti edition of "History of Italian Literature" (1965-69), which he edited together with N. Sapegno. Incidentally, Suso Cecchi D'Amico, one of Italy's leading screenwriters after the Second World War, is his daughter.

イタリアの批評家。フィレンツェの生まれ。カルダレッリ、バッケッリらとともに創刊した雑誌『ロンダ』(1919~23)を拠点に、クローチェの枠を離れた新傾向の批評を展開し、長くイタリアの新聞各紙の文芸欄に書評、随想を寄稿、凝った手法でフォルムの洗練と透徹を目ざした「短文」を自家薬籠(やくろう)中のものとし、現代イタリアにおける散文批評の一典型となる潤沢な成果を実らせた。彼は同時代のイタリア文学に限らず、英米文学の研究、翻訳の先達となったほか、美術批評や諸外国への旅行記などの広範なジャンルで多くの優れた著作を残した。その作家・作品論は、現在、大冊の『1900年代のイタリア文学』(1972)に集成されている。またN・サペーニョとともに編纂(へんさん)にあたったガルザンティ社版『イタリア文学史』(1965~69)全9巻の業績も見逃せない。なお、第二次世界大戦後のイタリアを代表するシナリオ作家のスーゾ・チェッキ・ダミーコは彼の娘である。 [古賀弘人] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
