Abstract

Prompted by the recendy published annotated edition of Parini's Odi by Nadia Ebani, this article acknowledges the merits of the commentary and its innovative insights, while expressing at the same time some reservations regarding the editor's note. After suggesting some specific revisions, the article goes on to provide a new and original interpretation of the ode "La Tempesta" [The Storm]. Various structural and stylistic features of this poem are typical of the piscatory eclogue, and Parini embraces the kind of political allegory traditionally associated with this genre when alluding to the tempestuous period that saw the Milanese stripped of their political appointments following Joseph II's rise to power.
