Essays by Dino Campana

Teaching qualification exam, Institute of Higher Studies, 1911.

 

The four manuscripts, an essay in Italian (A zonzo per Firenze), one in French (Le repentir), a dictation and a translation from Italian into French, constitute the exam that Dino Campana took during the competition held in 1911 by the Institute of Higher Studies in Florence to qualify for the teaching of foreign languages. Campana took the examination for French, but because of the negative results obtained in the written part he did not qualify to sit for the oral part. The documentation of that experience has recently emerged in the historical archives of the Philosophy and Philology section .
