Abstract
The essay reconstructs Giorgio Caproni's partisan experience in Val Trebbia by aligning the various stages of his personal history which would lay at the core of his future poetic vocation and discourse. In an attempt to place data and facts in a secure framework of historical and topographical references, the essay makes use of a wide range of writings, studies, memories, and unpublished documents.
