Umberto Piersanti (Urbino, february 26 1941) is an Italian poet, prose writer, professor of sociology of the literature at the University of Urbino, in Italy, and editor of the literary revue "Pelagos".

During his writer career, Piersanti published many poetry books, some novels and essays.

He maked one's debut in 1967 with the collection of poems "La breve stagione"; the melancholy preponderated in his jouvenile poems, like the appenninic nature, trasformed in a mythical and classic place.

In "Nascere nel '40" (1981) e "Passaggio di sequenza" (1986), Piersanti examined the historical and politic contest between '60-'80.

He was nominee at Nobel Prize for Literature in 2005.
