 Cesare Pavese - Biografia
Questo mondo adolescente di Cesare, così difficile, così traboccante di solitudine e di isolamento per Monti sarebbe invece il risultato della introversione tipica della adolescenza, per Fernandez la risultante di traumi infantili (morte del padre e mondo femminile in cui viene allevato, desiderio inconscio di autopunizione).
Cesare trova gusto nelle discussioni, si trova a suo agio nelle trattorie, assieme agli operai, ai venditori ambulanti, alla gente qualunque: molti di questi saranno un giorno protagonisti dei suoi romanzi.
Peccato Cesare, che non puoi vedere cosa ci hai lasciato.

Pavese compì gli studi liceali a Torino con Augusto Monti, collaboratore di Gobetti, narratore, studioso di problemi della scuola.
Durante gli anni dell'università Pavese maturò l'interesse per la letteratura americana; in quegli anni, intanto, alternava il lavoro di traduttore con l'insegnamento della lingua inglese (si era nel frattempo laureato con una tesi sul poeta americano Walt Whitman).

  CONTEXT: John Taylor, Reading Cesare Pavese
Early on, Pavese alludes to this troubled relationship between living and writing by means of a subtitle, Secretum professionale, which covers four months during the first two years (1935-1936) that he records in his diary.
It seems that Pavese was driven by a perpetually adolescent romanticism with respect to women, as well as, in contrast, by an amorous philosophy so inflexibly pessimistic that any enduring partnership was excluded in advance.
Not surprisingly, Pavese elucidated, both for himself and more generally as a critic, the "static essentials" of a novel, as they are incarnated in a hero who remains the same from the beginning to the end.

  Neorealist Authors: Pavese
Cesare Pavese was born in S. Stefano Belbo, a country of the Langhe, in 1908.
In Turin Cesare completed his first studies and he had as teacher Augusto Monti, who later had to be a point of reference of the liberal Turinese youths and an exceptional teacher of a whole generation of patriots.
Pavese’s myth is born and is in force in that climate of symbolic discoveries of the infancy, in that instinctive-irrational world that is really freed during the war.

 Cesare Pavese, biography and works
Cesare’s father dies soon: this episode will strongly affect the child’s temper (he was already introvert and distant).
Cesare likes discussions in the inns with the workers, the street-sellers, or the ordinary people: many of them will be the protagonists of his novels.
Pavese participates to this project enthusiastically, for he is a friend of Giulio: these are his best moments with “the hoarse voice woman”, who was a maths-graduated intellectual, strongly engaged in antifascism.

Cesare Pavese, scrittore dall’esistenza amara e tormentata, aprì nuovi orizzonti culturali nella letteratura italiana del ‘900, pur mantenendo sempre un legame col mondo primigenio e autentico della Langa della sua infanzia.
Fautore della nuova stagione del teatro italiano del ‘700, Vittorio Alfieri infuocò le sue tragedie di alti ideali e insofferenza verso ogni tipo di oppressione e tirannia: un’arte cui si dedicò severamente per l’educazione civile e morale di un pubblico senza tempo.
Augusto Monti fu un modello di rigore morale e fedeltà ai propri ideali per una generazione di intellettuali che con lui hanno condiviso la storia del XX secolo: una storia ripercorsa nelle vicende familiari de "I Sanssossì", il suo capolavoro.

The Selected Works of Cesare Pavese.(Brief Article) - The Review of Contemporary Fiction - HighBeam Research
In four first-person novels Pavese renders with formidable talent extreme isolation, where people group only out of obscure necessity.
As one character observes, "Having money means you can isolate yourself." Everyone is removed from the world, whether or not it be wartime or post-WWII Italy.

Born in 1908, Pavese completed a Ph.D. thesis on Walt Whitman and became one of Italy's leading translators of American writing before committing suicide in 1950.

It is thus fitting that this translation of his poems written from 1930 to 1950 and including works censored by the Fascists as well as poems discovered after his death should be the work of the brilliant translator and annotator Geoffrey Brock.
