Les Amours D'Italie
By Charles Didier
Published by Libraire De L. Hachette Et Cie: Paris 1859 1st Edition

English Translation: " The Loves Of Italy"

" Charles Didier (15 September 1805 - 7 March 1864) was a Swiss writer, poet and traveller. He followed classic studies in Geneva, where he published two collections of poems, La Harpe helvétique (1825) and Mélodies helvétiques (1825). In 1827, attracted by the myth of Italy, he decided to undertake a trip to the peninsula, where he went as a tutor. In 1829 his travels took him to Sicily. Prevented by impending blindness, to take the road to the East, Charles Didier ended his life by committing suicide March 7, 1864 in Paris after long suffering. "
