Discussion | Silent Moon: On Leopardi's 'Canto Notturno'
The great Romantic poet Giacomo Leopardi's finest work was Night Song of a Wandering Shepherd in Asia. Two experts offer a reading and discussion. As Helen Vendler says, Leopardi's poetry is charged on the one hand with a helpless longing, both sexual and philosophical, and on the other hand by a bitterness that was both personal and political.
Jonathan Galassi (the president and publisher of Farrar, Straus and Giroux) is the acclaimed translator of the 2012 English edition of Leopardis poems. He has also translated the poetry and prose of Eugenio Montale and is the author of two volumes of poems, Morning Run and North Street.

Discussion | The Washington Monthly's 45th Anniversary Celebration
Society needs non-fiction: the Founders saw to that with the First Amendment. But writers need institutional supports, and many of these have been subverted by technology.

There will be a screening of How Washington Really Works, a 30-minute documentary about the magazine and its founder Charlie Peters. A panel discussion will follow moderated by Suzannah Lessard, with Nick Lemann, Joe Nocera, Nick Thompson, and Steve Waldman.
