 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Italian Literature
The Italians naturally regarded the language and traditions of Rome as their own, and still clung to the use of Latin while a vernacular literature was already flourishing in France and Provence.
From the seventh century onwards, we begin to find traces in extant documents, from various parts of Italy, of the use of the vernacular, in the shape of forms that are more or less Italian inserted into the corrupt Latin of the epoch.
No Italian since Petrarch had reached the lyrical beauty of his "Canti", in which the contrast between the past and present of his country, the worship of antiquity, political disillusion, hopeless love, and, at length, even the contemplation of nature find utterance in sheer despair.

The fate of Slovene literary texts in Italian anthologies of Yugoslav literatures after 1945 appears to have been the same as that of all Italian anthologies of Slovene literature.
What can be done, however, is an analysis of reasons for the production of Italian anthologies of Yugoslav literatures and circumstances in which they were compiled and published.
On this level, the same motivation is found again and again: attempts to overcome Italian readers' unfamiliarity with and indifference towards Slovene literature.
