In 1894, Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900) published two collections of aphorisms: A Few Maxims For The Instruction Of The Over-Educated, in the Saturday Review newspaper, and Phrases and Philosophies for the Use of the Young, in the Oxford student magazine The Chameleon. By turns witty, intellectual, counter-intuitive and obtruse, the collections came to be seen by many as emblematic of Wilde's style, and countless collections of Wildean aphorisms have since been published. (Summary by Carl Manchester)

La Divina Commedia, originalmente Commedìa, è un poema di Dante Alighieri, capolavoro del poeta fiorentino, considerata la più importante testimonianza letteraria della civiltà medievale e una delle più grandi opere della letteratura universale. È diviso in tre parti chiamate cantiche: Inferno, Purgatorio, Paradiso; il poeta immagina di compiervi un viaggio ultraterreno Il poema, pur continuando i modi caratteristici della letteratura e dello stile medievali (ispirazione religiosa, fine morale, linguaggio e stile basati sulla percezione visiva e immediata delle cose), tende a una ...

Story0
De vulgari eloquentia (On Eloquence in the vernacular) is a short essay written by Dante Alighieri in Latin. The work remains incomplete; only one and a half books are extant. It is believed to have been composed during Dante's exile, probably at some point between 1302 and 1305. The work revolves around the relationship between Latin and vernacular, and the need for a literary language, with an excourse on the poetic forms in vernacular. - Summary by Leni

In questa breve ma completa lezione-conferenza, realizzata per l'Università della Terza Età di Roseto degli Abruzzi, si ripercorre l'esperienza erotica ma soprattutto culinaria di Dona Flor, protagonista del celeberrimo romanzo di Jorge Amado. Incatenata tra l'amore del primo marito Vadinho, debosciato e sciupafemmine, e quello del secondo, Teodoro, religioso e onesto farmacista, da cui Dona Flor avrà una vita agiata ma del tutto insoddisfacente sul piano sessuale, Dona Flor si improvvisa maestra di cucina.

Story0
Dorian Gray, a young man of wealth and stature in late 1800's London, meets Lord Henry Wotton while posing for a portrait by his friend Basil Hallward. Once the painting is complete, Dorian realizes that it will always be young and attractive, while he will be forced to age and wither with the years. Carelessly, he wishes the opposite were true. What happens is a treatise on morals, self-indulgence and how crucial personal responsibility is towards one's self. (Summary by John Gonzalez)

Als der berückend gutaussehende Jüngling Dorian Gray sein Porträt betrachtet, kommt ihm der Gedanke, wie herrlich es sein müsste, wenn das Bild an seiner Stelle altern könnte, während er selbst für immer jung und schön bliebe. Als sich dieser fantastische Wunsch zu erfüllen beginnt, genießt Dorian seine ewige Jugend in vollen Zügen - während in seiner Seele ein grauenvolles Werk der Zerstörung seinen Lauf nimmt. (Zusammenfassung von Al-Kadi)

“... an alemaunde tre schal floure, a locuste schal be maad fat, and capparis schal be distried; for a man schal go in to the hous of his euerlastyngnesse...” - Eccl. xii, 5 (see Note below). Traditionally composed by Solomon sometime around 950-970 BCE but dated on linguistic evidence somewhere in the third century, this meditation on the futility of mankind’s striving can bring comfort to those of firm or fragile faith, or of no faith at all. The text used here is a revision of Wycliffe's original translation, made by his follower John Purvey in the mid-1390s. Wycliffe's chapter ...

Questo è il primo di una serie di cinque piccoli volumetti sulla mia esperienza con gli audiolibri.Non si tratta di manualistica o del solito metodo miracoloso per far soldi, bensì di vita vissuta, di quello che si tocca con mano davvero e non in ipotesi in questo particolarissimo settore dell'editoria. Una sorta di "case history" a puntate o a episodi su audiolibri e podcast, ma da leggere. Possibilmente con un sorriso.

No, Chiara Ferragni non è stata assolta. Nonostante la notizia sia stata diramata con grandissima enfasi dagli organi di informazione, la circostanza della presunta assoluzione nel merito della accuse imputate alla influencer italiana, non corrisponde alla realtà effettiva dei fatti.

Una giovane donna siciliana entra a far parte dell’Arma dei Carabinieri e viene assegnata in servizio a una caserma di una grande città del Nord. Attraverso il suo vissuto umano e lavorativo quotidiano e il ripercorrere alcuni gravi eventi di cronaca giudiziaria, ricostruirà la sua identità di persona, raccontandola in prima persona a uno sconosciuto e fittizio “Signor Tenente”, nella piena consapevolezza della conoscenza dei fatti e accompagnando il lettore verso un finale scontato e inevitabile, ma, proprio per questo, estremamente coinvolgente sotto il profilo emotivo.

Youssef è morto. Era stato accoltellato poche ore prima nell’Istituto di Istruzione Superiore che frequentava, da un compagno di classe. Motivi sentimentali, si dice, ma si dice ben poco. Certo, il cordoglio. Certo, il dolore, la pena, lo stupore e lo sbigottimento. Certo l’insegnante ha fermato e disarmato l’assassino con encomiabile coraggio. Ma poi?
