In the literary field in the Baroque era stands the extensive use of metaphors in order to obtain the "poetics of wonder", which connects the "concept", a procedure that uses bold links between opposing elements. Other important aspects are the 'sharpness' and the "Genius" exhibition as a sign of prestige of owning the most exquisite techniques in order to impress the reader with this "cult of artifice." So even in the literary field, you try to love the elegance, the game metaphor. The writer focuses on baroque forms, as if to compensate for the limited contenuti.Si also gives great importance to the detailed description made with pure adjectives hidden features belonging to humans, animals or landscapes. Born an innovative genre, the novel, is experimenting with new literary forms such as the mock-heroic poem, the narrative of adventure, scientific prose (Galileo Galilei).

La Murtoleide: Whistle of Marino.
is considered the most representative of poetry Baroque in Italy , identified by his name, as marinism . He n water in Naples October 14, 1569. Lawyer forced by his father to study law, despite its strong inclination for literature, was forced to leave home for his provocative and insubordinate behavior. In 1596, came into contact with the literary circles of the city, became secretary of Matteo di Capua, Prince of Conca. In 1598 he was imprisoned for having seduced the daughter of a wealthy merchant, who died of abortion. He was arrested again the following year for trying to save from death penalty by forcing it to a friend cleric bishop counterfeit notes. He fled to Rome, entered the service of Crescenzio Melchiorre, room clerk of Pope Clement VIII, participating the literary life of the city. After a stay in Venice (between 1602 and 1603), was incorporated in 1604 in the service of Cardinal Pietro Aldobrandini, nephew of Clement VIII, who followed in 1606 in the bishopric of Ravenna and in 1608 in Turin. Here, the court of Carlo Emanuele I of Savoy, received the first major awards. In 1611 he came into conflict with the poet Gaspare Murtola, who, envious of his success, he came to shoot him in the street. Marino was unhurt, but a young man was wounded in his place. Murtola had to pay with the arrest and expulsion from the Piedmont, but the same Marine, for reasons not well understood, tried again the stigma of prison, from which only came out in June 1612. In 1615 Maria
de 'Medici, the widow of Henry IV, invited him to the French court, where, cradled in the honors and comforts sought for a lifetime, Marino tidied and finished his poetic production. In 1623, homesick, sick and tired of court life, he returned to Rome, where he was welcomed triumphantly elected Prince and the Academy of humors. In 1624 he moved to Naples, where he died March 25, 1625. Marino was a prolific and versatile poet. He owes his fame mainly all'Adone Printed in Paris in 1623. The minor works are arranged in the following collections: The lira's epithalamium (1616), poems for the wedding of famous personalities of the court; The Murtoleide, 81 sonnets against Murtola (1619), La Galeria (1619), descrizioni in versi di opere d'arte reali o immaginarie; La sampogna (1620), serie di idilli e di favole pastorali; La strage de gl'Innocenti (1632, postumo), poemetto in ottave sulla storia evangelica. Notevoli per valore documentario sono le Lettere, che costituiscono anche sul piano artistico un eccellente esempio di prosa secentesca.
La poesia di Marino è tutta impostata sul principio della "meraviglia", pur attuando una medietà stilistica che rifugge dai concettismi più arditi e dalle provocazioni più astruse che saranno invece proprie di certi suoi emulatori. Marino non è poeta del facile effetto, ma ingegnoso inventore di immagini preziose, abile falsario della tradizione, irriducibile paladino della looking fantastic. His metaphors are intended to intelligence of the reader, not his impressionability, so that we recognize a design principle of an orderly and rational coldness in the swarm of metaphors and the constantly changing language and books. In composing a poem by Marino and the human world of extraordinary natural richness and variety, mobile, and sensual, very far from the rarefied atmosphere and ethereal Petrarch, but without actually writing it appears realistic. The unceasing efforts of the poet in search of the literature did not change no other purpose than the pleasure of skill and elegance. The
ADONE
The Adonis of Giovanni Battista Marino, published in Paris and Venice in 1623, is a vast mythological poem in the eighth (of more than 40,000 verses, divided into twenty songs), to which the author worked for years and with ambitious plans to darken the reputation of Tasso and Ariosto. Consistent with the rejection of the precepts of the sixteenth century baroque, Marino leaves the model of the heroic poem for the theme (love and mythological, historical and not likely) and for the choices of structure and style, there is indeed a total ignorance of the principle Aristotelian unity of action. The central story concerns the love of Venus for Adonis, the handsome prince born of incestuous union of Myrrha with her father. Cupid, beaten by Venus, in revenge for the strike with his arrow, fall in love making Adonis. The goddess then leads the young man in his palace where he begins to knowledge through the testing of sensory pleasures of the five senses and intellectual knowledge through an exploration of the universe up to the planet Venus.
At this point, Venus and Adonis get married, but for the arrival of Mars, Venus, jealous of the young prince is forced to flee, after a series of adventures adventurous Venus and Adonis are reunited, but Adonis dies for sexual assault a boar fell in love with him because he shot with an arrow of Cupid. Venus transforms the heart of Adonis in an anemone, and celebrates magnificent games in his honor.
This case, however, only a thin cloth on which is grafted a mole impressionante di digressioni, descrizioni, racconti secondari che crescono gli uni sugli altri in base ad associazioni ardite e inattese, indifferenti alla logica e alla coerenza del convegno narrativo. Ciò che interessa Giovanni Battista Marino non è conquistare il lettore attraverso il ritmo della narrazione, ma sottoporlo ad un continuo bombardamento di meraviglie, ricamandogli sotto gli occhi un mondo seducente e lussuoso che si snoda di vicenda in vicenda senza bisogno di un centro e di un ordine logico. Per queste caratteristiche l'Adone, tipica espressione del gusto barocco, fu al centro di un violento sconto, nel quale le regioni estetiche, letterarie e morali dei sostenitori e dei detrattori del marinismo si mescolarono con le feroci rivalità che dividevano i letterati del Seicento.
