Maria Grazia Cosima Deledda (Italian: Maria Grazia Cosima Deledda, September 27, 1871 - August 15, 1936) was a naturalist writer from Sardinia, Italy. In 1927, she won the 1926 Nobel Prize for Literature for her work La Via Del Male (1896). Deledda was born into a middle-class family. After completing primary school, she studied with a private tutor and then delved into literature on her own. "A large number of works by Balzac, Gogol, Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, and the magnificent scenery and legends of Sardinia cultivated her soul and opened up her imagination." She first published novels in magazines, and "Nell'azzurro" published in 1890 is regarded as her first work. In 1900, she moved to Rome after marrying Palmiro Madesani, an official in the Ministry of War. After the publication of works such as "Anime oneste" in 1895 and "Il vecchio della montagna" in 1900, critics began to pay attention to Deledda's work. The publication of "Elias Portolu" in 1903 marked Deledda's official start on the road to success. Her representative works include "Cenere" (1906), "The Mother (Novel)" (La Madre, 1920), "After the Divorce" (Naufraghi in porto, 1920), "Cosima" (1937), etc. Ashes inspired a film starring Eleonora Doucet. Meng Xianzhong believes that Deledda's novels can be divided into two categories: "The first is to convey the customs and customs of Sardinia in a kind, clear and clear way, making the world know about Sardinia. The second is to express the contradiction between human emotions and religious spirit with in-depth inner descriptions and sad and silent poetry; these works are always cast with a light and shadow of fate, and have a Biblical meaning." Deleda died in Rome in 1936.
