Life
Sanguineti was a connoisseur of Dante's linguistic universe . He also knew his way around classical German-language literature, especially Bert Brecht's work . The aesthetic texts around the Frankfurt School were important to him throughout his life. He gave one of his volumes of poetry the German title Wirrwarr . The public polemical exchange between him and Pier Paolo Pasolini on the tasks of literature is still worth reading for literary scholars today.
From 1979 to 1983 Sanguineti was a member of the Camera dei deputati for the KPI . In 2007 he ran for the mayor's office of Genoa, but did not win. Texts by Sanguineti were set to music by Fausto Razzi , Fernando Mencherini and Luciano Berio .
