The publication is the second part of the first volume of the Works of Andreas Kalvos and includes various poetic texts (odes, tragedies, translations, etc.) which, either complete or incomplete, remained unpublished in the poet's papers. It includes the tragedies Teramene and Jppia, verses of the planned tragedy "Abantida", the "Ode agli Ionî", the "Excerpt from an untitled poem", the Italian translation of the Sicilian poem "Le Stagioni" (The Seasons) by Giovanni Meli and the verses we know as "Verses in the Album Pieri", while the poem "Anacreontica", which has recently come to light, is published in the Appendix. All of them (except for the "Verses" of 1831) are placed chronologically before the Greek odes (more specifically in the period 1813-1820ca.), while they are all in Italian, except the most important "Excerpt". The poems, accompanied by extensive introductions, commentary and today's faithful Greek translations, offer the Greek reader for the first time the opportunity to approach the precious fruits of Andreas Kalvos' first poetic maturation.
