Tiziano Rossi (born in Milan, 1935) is an Italian poet. He is known for his published books of poetry, but in 2020 he also published a collection of short stories.
A son of the painter Giovanni Rossi, as a poet he is considered an important exponent of the well-known Lombard line (a category which is to be understood in a broad sense, not coinciding perfectly with the geographical area). [1] In his poetry it is often clear a civil wish to defend life from industrial and technological invasions. [2]
Rossi is the editor (with Ermanno Krumm) of the anthological work Poesia italiana del Novecento, with a preface by Mario Luzi (Milan: 1995). [3]
He won the Viareggio Prize for poetry in 2000. [4]
