 The original writings that the Nobel laureate Salvatore Quasimodo left to the library when in 1967 he was engaged in the Ionian capital in the translation of the epigrams of the Greek poet Leonidas of Taranto were found during the operations of the heritage of the Acclavio library in Taranto.

Mayor Rinaldo Melucci announced this, explaining that "the thrill of seeing those texts written by hand, the thrill of seeing the imprint of that same hand, imprinted on the paper to guarantee the authenticity of that intellectual work, was strong as much as the bond that unites us to our history ".

Taranto, adds the mayor, "has been a place of culture for 28 centuries, we breathe the beauty that elsewhere they cannot even imagine. In the days of waiting for the title of Italian Capital of Culture, this rediscovered treasure confirms that our ambition is legitimate ".


    The municipal administration, together with the officials of the Acclavio library and with the Museion operators, who are entrusted with the care of the municipal library patrimony, "is already working - concludes Melucci - to make these wonderful transcriptions a shared patrimony of the entire community. ".
