Usage examples of "belli".

The other was Giuseppe Gioacchino Belli -- a great poet, little known outside Rome, since he wrote in the rough, dirty, blasphemous dialect of the Roman streets.

The second part presents Belli himself as poet, translated by Anthony Burgess.

It also represents, as Belli tells Cardinal Fabiani, the octave of the rhyme scheme of a petrarchan sonnet.

John Keats and the fine-eyed, wavy-maned Guiseppe Gioacchino Belli one forenoon of November sunlight and intense blue Roman sky, song and the noise of fish and vegetable vendors coming from below.

Gulielmi did not say that John Keats also had a fair copy of a rejected sonnet-with-coda written by Belli, a regretted dirty joke, the something regrettable that got into him and out again.

Belli emitted a long mouthful at that, which John understood to convey the shock Belli felt at the impropriety of the employment of such language in a holy place before and under holy pictures.

That mollified Belli somewhat but reproof, dramatised by his flapping candle flames, rested in the fine eyes.

John felt uncomfortable talking of God, more uncomfortable hearing his words about God put into Italian while Belli listened with gravity.

Who or what was this Belli, besides some vague official of the papacy?

But Belli is not satisfied with how God made him, which seems to mean that he is not satisfied with God, and this feeds an ever-growing guilt.

He thought he knew now why Belli was angry and ashamed to have written that sonnet.

Call them all in, Belli and hewing Ewing and Gulielmi, no he is with Shelley and his lordship in in where the tower leans, and our anglophilic Spaniard.

The Russian writer Gogol, who spent some time in Rome, heard Belli and was impressed.

Joyce, the Irish novelist, who worked miserably as a bank clerk in Rome in the 1900s, seems to have read Belli, whose vast sonnet-sequence, presenting realistically the demotic life of a great capital city, may be regarded as a kind of proto-Ulysses.

This boy, born in Moss Side in 1916, was to be -- by a twist if not genetic then purely coincidental, since family interest in Giuseppe Gioacchino Belli was born and apparently died with the founder of the family -- the translator into English of the great Roman poet.
