The text traces and analyses the figure of Jacques d'Adelswärd-Fersen through the press and literature. Writer, poet, dandy, Jacques d'Adelswärd-Fersen (Paris, 1880 - Capri, 1923) was the author of numerous texts and director of the magazine "Akademos". In 1904, after a trial similar to Oscar Wilde's, he moved to Capri where he committed suicide at the age of forty-three, putting an end to a life of excess, scandal and poetry. Persona non grata in the Paris of the "belle Epoque", it was his Italian exile that gave rise to his legend. From the evenings in his villa Lysis came the most prominent names in European culture. A stereotype of the modern cursed poet, Jacques d'Adelswärd remains unknown to literary critics even today.
