  • Six Memos for the Next Millennium (Italian: Lezioni americane. Sei proposte per il prossimo millennio) is a book based on a series of lectures written by Italo Calvino for the Charles Eliot Norton Lectures at Harvard, though Calvino died before delivering them. The lectures were written in Italian but were to be given in English in the fall of 1985. There have been two English translations, the first by Patrick Creagh, published in 1988, and the second by Geoffrey Brock, published in 2016. The "memos" are lectures on certain literary qualities whose virtues Calvino wished to recommend to the then-approaching millennium. He intended to devote one lecture to each of six qualities: lightness, quickness, exactitude, visibility, multiplicity, and consistency. Though he completed the first five, he died before he writing the last. (en)

  • 《給下一輪太平盛世的備忘錄》(英語:Six Memos for the Next Millennium;義大利語:Lezioni americane. Sei proposte per il prossimo millennio),又譯《美國講稿》或《新千年文學備忘錄》,是卡爾維諾準備於1985年赴美國演講的演講集。原文以義大利文寫成,翻譯成英文。從英文書名中可得知,此書本來預定有六講,但卡爾維諾還沒有踏足美國就死於腦出血,第六講「一致性」(consistency)尚未完成。遺孀艾瑟(Esther Judith Singe)就收集了卡爾維諾的前五篇演講稿,成了一本給下一輪太平盛世(二十一世紀)的備忘錄,主要是講作者對文學的研究和期望。 (zh)
