Abstract
Virtue, love and pity. About the two "rejected" poems by Giacomo Leopardi The paper analyses the two poems "Per una donna inferma di malattia lunga e mortale" and "Nella morte di una donna fatta trucidare col suo portato dal corruttore per mano ed arte di un chirurgo". After a part dedicated to the two unpublished poems of 1819 and to the inconsistent attention paid by the critics, the essay explores the main reasons, both stylistic and conceptual, that make these two poems of great interest for the evolution of Leopardi's poetics.
