(This file was produced from images generously made available by Biblioteca Nazionale Braidense - Milano) "Lucifero" by Mario Rapisardi is a poem written in the late 19th century. This work presents a reimagining of the figure of Lucifer, exploring themes of faith, knowledge, and the human condition through the dialogues and experiences of its central character. The poem grapples with profound philosophical questions, evoking interactions with iconic mythological and literary figures, such as Prometheus, and addressing the struggle between divine authority and human intellect. The opening of "Lucifero" introduces a world of silence and uncertainty where God has not spoken, leading to chaos among His followers. Amidst this backdrop, Lucifer incarnates and embarks on a journey, igniting thought and rebellion among humanity. The text presents discussions between Lucifer and Prometheus, highlighting Lucifer’s desire to uplift humanity through knowledge and love, and Prometheus’ cautious stance towards the futility of such endeavors under divine oppression. This establishes a narrative filled with existential inquiry, as the characters grapple with the nature of suffering, the quest for enlightenment, and the challenge of confronting authority.
