Note on publication dates: for some works, publication in a magazine preceded the first book edition. Our guides normally list the first book edition and note significant exceptions, such as Cenere (1903 in a magazine, 1904 in book form) and Cosima (serialised in 1936 after the author's death, book edition in 1937).
