Italian Edition. Pubblicato a Milano nel 1895, Piccolo mondo antico si svolge a ridosso di alcune vicende del Risorgimento italiano, dal 1849 (anno della bruciante sconfitta di Novara) al 1859, in prossimità della nuova guerra contro l'Austria. Da alcuni appunti dell'autore sappiamo che la stesura del romanzo gli portò via circa 10 anni (Fogazzaro iniziò a scriverlo nell'agosto del 1884 e lo concluse il 31 dicembre 1894, "alle 6 del pomeriggio") e, appena uscito, il romanzo fu immediatamente tradotto in inglese ed in francese, divenendo in breve tempo un successo internazionale, capace perfino di surclassare Le vergini delle rocce di D'Annunzio. Proprio grazie all'enorme fortuna dell'opera, Antonio Fogazzaro ottenne la nomina a senatore.

Antonio Fogazzaro was born in Vicenza, Italy on March 25, 1842. He was the son of a well-to-do family.
Antonio Fogazzaro was a pupil of the Abate Zanella, one of the best of the modern Italian poets, whose tender, thoughtful and deeply religious spirit continued to animate his literary productions.
Antonio Fogazzaro's first published work was Miranda (1874), a sentimental romance in verse.
This was followed two years later by Valsolda, a book of lyrics celebrating the beauties of the Alpine valley adjoining Lake Lugano.
Other novels of note are Piccolo mondo moderno (1900) and Leila (1911), while the volume of short stories Fedele (1887) contains some excellent tales.
His novels, Malombra (1882), Daniele Cortis (1887), Misterio del Poeta (1888), obtained considerable literary success upon their first publication, but did not gain universal popularity until they were discovered and taken up by French critics in 1896.
