II" by Silvio Pellico is a collection of unpublished poetry likely written in the early 19th century. The work explores themes of morality, virtue, and human experiences, presented through a series of narrative poems known as "Cantiche." The author reflects on historical events and figures, intertwining personal and collective emotions with a focus on Italy's moral and civic progress. At the start of the collection, Pellico introduces his approach to poetry, stating his intention to portray various historical narratives with a moral purpose. He acknowledges his previous attempts at creating a more extensive epic but has since shifted to shorter, standalone works. The opening portion presents an excerpt called "Rafaella," which is inspired by the virtues and influences of women, set against a backdrop of historical Italy during the reign of Emperor Otto II. This segment emphasizes the power of poetry to inspire noble sentiments and depict the struggles and triumphs of human nature.
