Gabriele Tinti’s Hungry Ghosts is a cycle of 51 poems
written in collaboration with the photographer Roger Ballen,
whose photographic negatives are reproduced in the book.
The images are mostly terrifying, in keeping with the
otherworldly inclination of the poems. This bilingual edition
includes Tinti’s original Italian poems with English translations
by David Graham, interspersed with Greek lines taken from
inscriptions found on archaeological objects and from ancient
Greek texts.
The book is inspired by the Petavatthu, a Theravada
Buddhist scripture that includes stories about the realm of the
“hungry ghosts,” a category of supernatural beings ubiquitous in
East and South Asian religions, with section headings such as
“Abandoned Ghosts,” “Protectors,” “Guardians,” and “Hungry
Ghosts.” T he poems are quite short and try to emulate the
obscure, esoteric quality of scriptural language, though they
struggle, at times, under the weight of too many venerable
references drawn from both Buddhist and Greek traditions.
Internet:<poetryfoundation.org>(adapted).
About the linguistic and lexical features of the preceding text, judge the following item.
The word “though” (last sentence of the second paragraph) is used to introduce a concessive clause.

“The High Priestess of Soul,” Nina Simone was a singer,
pianist, songwriter, and civil rights activist. Mostly known as a
jazz singer, her music blended gospel, blues, folk, pop, and
classical styles. No popular singer was more closely associated
with the Civil Rights Movement than Simone.
Nina Simone was born Eunice Kathleen Waymon on
February 21st, 1933, in Tryon, North Carolina. Her mother, Mary
Kate Irvin, was a Methodist preacher and housekeeper, and her
father, John Divine Waymon, worked as an entertainer, barber,
and dry-cleaner. The family’s home was filled with music and
Simone’s mother encouraged her musical pursuits but she did not
approve of nonreligious music like blues and jazz. Simone took
up the piano before her feet could reach the pedals, and by the
age of six, she was playing during church services.
In 2008, Rolling Stone named Simone to its list of the
100 Greatest Singers of All Time, and, in 2018, Simone was
inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
