Abstract
The essays analyzes Luciano Cecchinel's poetry written in both Italian and in the dialect spoken in the northern area of the province of Treviso. In doing so, the author employs Dante's categories and argues that the «scented panther of the poetic language» originates from Cecchinel's bilingualism and the constant tension between Italian and the poet's local dialect.
