Luciano Bianciardi is remembered for writing that changed what came after it.
The record lists Luciano Bianciardi as Italian writer (1922-1971).
Luciano Bianciardi was born at Grosseto in 1922. His recorded nationality is Italy. He was educated at University of Pisa and Scuola Normale Superiore.
Twentieth-century writing was shaped by war, exile and translation; many of its major careers were conducted across more than one language and country.
He worked as linguist, journalist and writer.
The writing is recorded in Italian.
Among his best-known works are La vita agra, Il lavoro culturale and L'integrazione. Reputation in letters is unusually volatile: writers are forgotten for a generation and then recovered by one.
That the work was written from Italy matters: language, censorship and the reach of a publishing industry decide which books travel and which stay local.
Luciano Bianciardi died in 1971, aged 49. The books remain, which is the only durable form a writing life takes.
