Clemente Rebora
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Clemente Rebora(1885-1957) was a poet from Milan, Italy. From 1913 to 1922 he wrote anonymous "Songs" and lyrics. In the late 1920s he had a spiritual crisis and became a devout Catholic. By 1931 he entered the seminary and in 1936 he became a Rosminian priest. After this his work became religious in orientation, but his work is popular beyond Catholic circles for its treatment of metaphysics and physics. He is somewhat controversial for his friendship with Julius Evola, but the friendship seems to have been largely based on his hope Julius would convert to Christianity. When this hope grew dim the friendship declined.
