This Italian poet, novelist, and dramatist was a military hero and supporter of fascist political ideas. His work masterfully combined naturalism, symbolism, and erotic imagery, establishing him as the foremost interpreter of European Decadence in post-Risorgimento Italy. Beyond his literary contributions, D'Annunzio's passionate love affairs, his celebrated relationship with actress Eleonora Duse, and his heroic wartime adventures, including the occupation of Fiume, cemented his status as a living legend.
