But for the poet, who was imprisoned for anti-fascist activities, resistance was a way of being rather than a response to political circumstances. He wrote: \u201cTo resist means to oppose a force that works against us, threatens to overpower us and that invites us to retreat.\u201d Gatto was one of a second generation of Hermetic poets, following in the tradition of Eugenio Montale, who was one of his greatest supporters. Gatto was also a painter and his art influenced his rich verbal portraits of the land he called \u201cla terra dipinta.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Siew David Hii\u00a0<\/strong>lives in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.
