About “Halcyon”
Halcyon is a collection of 88 poems by Italian poet Gabriele D'Annunzio. It was written between 1899 and 1903 and published in 1903. The collection was meant to be the third volume of a larger work called Laudi del cielo, del mare, della terra e degli eroi. This seven-book project was never completed. By 1912, only four volumes had been published: Maia, Elettra, Halcyon, and Merope. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
