Timeline
Pier Giorgio Di Cicco (July 5, 1949 - December 22, 2019) was an Italian-Canadian poet.
Born in Arezzo, Italy, his family immigrated to Canada in 1952.
Di Cicco was brought up in several North American cities, among them Baltimore, Maryland, Montreal, Quebec and Toronto, Ontario.
In the early 1970s he attended the University of Toronto.
While working part-time as a bartender at the university, he began to publish poems in little magazines.
He has since written 13 books of poetry and in 1978 edited a volume of verse by Italian-Canadian poets, Roman Candles which became a seminal volume for the birth of Italian-Canadian literature.
His poems, consisting of deep images in stanzas of free verse - with lines consisting of irregular numbers of syllables and (hypothetical) feet - often referred to di Cicco's immigrant and Italian-family experiences.
In books like Flying Deeper Into the Century (1982) and The Tough Romance (1979) he communicated a modern, sensitive awareness of the confusing welter of 20th-century life.
Di Cicco's unmetrical but imagistic lines flowed on, often with cumulative power, to release their tension at the end of their stanzas.
Di Cicco gradually felt called to a Catholic religious life.
Reducing his output of verse, he spent a period in an Augustinian monastery north of Toronto.
Di Cicco then undertook religious studies and became a friar with a parish in Brampton, Ontario.
In the 1990s he resumed writing and publishing poems, producing a selected volume and several others.
In 2004-5 he taught at the University of Toronto.
In 2005 he became the second Poet Laureate of Toronto.
In 2005, he was chosen Poet Laureate of Toronto; he published a poem weekly in The Toronto Star Sunday newspaper.
The writer and critic Joseph Pivato edited, Pier Giorgio Di Cicco: Essays on His Works (2011), an important analysis of his poetry.
His latest book (2018) is entitled Wishipedia.
