Biography
Biography
As a young man, Forster was an exponent of the Julian-Dalmatian irredentists, and for this reason persecuted by the Austrians. He moved to Naples with the help of Gabriele D'Annunzio and Edoardo Scarfoglio. He began to collaborate with Il Mattino as a theater critic. He founded and directed the cultural magazine, Flegrea, from 1899 to 1901. From the beginning, he sided with fascism, and in 1925 at the behest of Benito Mussolini, became the director of the newspaper. Forster held this position until 1928. In 1905 he published a book of poems: La fiorita, consisting of sonnets with a neo-romantic and late-scapigliato style. He also wrote a one-act drama, Revelations, and short novellas inspired by D'Annunzio that were published in the magazines of the day.
