Giorgio Manganelli

Giorgio Manganelli (November 15, 1922 - May 28, 1990) was an Italian journalist, avant-garde writer and literary critic. A native of Milan, he was one of the leaders of the avant-garde literary movement in Italy in the 1960s. He was a baroque and expressionist writer.[1] Manganelli translated Edgar Allan Poe's complete stories and authors like T. S. Eliot, Henry James, Eric Ambler, O. Henry, Robert Louis Stevenson, Byron's Manfred and others into Italian. He published an experimental essay, Hilarotragoedia, in 1964, doing so as part of the avant-garde Gruppo 63 (Group 63). He died in Rome in 1990.
