The narrative follows Ahasver, a Jewish man cursed to wander the earth for eternity, as he journeys to Rome. Throughout his travels, he encounters various historical figures, immersing himself in a rich tapestry of adventures. Divided into six lyrical and poetic sections, the work blends historical fiction with religious allegory, leaving a lasting impact on Austrian literature and culture. This reprint preserves the cultural significance of the original 1881 publication while acknowledging possible imperfections.

First published in 1923, this book presents the complete text of Giacomo Leopardi's Canti in the original Italian with facing-page English translation, along with extensive critical notes. The text also contains a biographical introduction, appendices and a detailed bibliography.
