Giovanni Papini

Giovanni Papini (1881–1956) was an Italian journalist, essayist, literary critic, poet, and novelist. Known for his controversial and provocative assertions, he initially wrote on philosophy and then moved towards a more literary career, publishing numerous books and articles. Papini's early work was associated with the pragmatist and idealist movements, and he later showed interest in Catholicism. His notable works include 'Il Tragico Quotidiano' (1906), 'Un Uomo Finito' (1912), and 'Gog' (1931). Despite his significant influence in the early 20th century, his reputation has been subject to re-evaluation due to his fascist sympathies during the 1920s and 1930s.
