Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduzioni di Mario Giammarco, Sebastiano Saglimbeni e Davide Monda Tavole di Gustave Doré e incisioni di Grandville Edizioni integrali La tradizione favolistica avviata da Esopo, ma affinata e arricchita da Fedro e La Fontaine, ha sempre avuto come protagonisti privilegiati gli animali, simboli evidenti e cristallini di vizi e virtù squisitamente umani. Essi, infatti, data la loro psicologia univoca, si trasformano in maschere: la potenza per il leone, l’operosità per la formica, l’astuzia per la volpe. Nelle favole di Esopo, gli animali sono maestri di saggezza attraverso insegnamenti arguti che si fondono in una narrazione spontanea e originale e richiamano alla mente una vita condotta secondo ritmi ed esigenze autentiche. I suoi celebri apologhi, di cui presentiamo la raccolta completa, sono espressione dell’autenticità dei sentimenti e della semplicità di un vivere senza tempo. A Fedro gli animali consentono di dire la verità senza pericolo, coprendola con una maschera allegorica. La sua visione del mondo è cinica e rassegnata all’immobilismo sociale, priva della possibilità di oltrepassare i propri limiti, ma è arricchita da una comicità vivace, corposa e pittoresca. La Fontaine, curioso, caustico e acuto osservatore dei comportamenti dei suoi simili, si diverte a rivelare i tratti più oscuri e nascosti dell’animo umano, realizzando, dietro la finzione delle maschere degli animali, una serie di felicissimi ritratti. Amante della tradizione favolistica classica greca e latina, nella sua fortunatissima raccolta di favole se ne dimostra particolarmente debitore. Esopo personaggio leggendario, secondo la tradizione fu uno schiavo frigio del VI secolo a.C.; dopo molte peripezie in Egitto, a Babilonia e in altri Paesi dell’Oriente, racconta Erodoto che, per colpa di una falsa accusa, sarebbe stato processato e giustiziato a Delfi. Fedro nacque in Grecia intorno al 20 a.C. Liberto di Augusto, visse a Roma. Fu perseguitato sotto Tiberio e fatto processare da Seiano, che si era visto satireggiare in alcune favole. Morì a Roma intorno al 50 d.C. Jean de La Fontaine (1621-1695) nacque a Château-Thierry nella Champagne. Si trasferì a Parigi nel 1658 e visse a lungo agiatamente grazie ai favori del ministro delle finanze Fouquet. Quando il suo protettore cadde in disgrazia, trovò sostegno in alcuni importanti amici della nobiltà francese. Frequentò poeti e letterati, scrisse poemi e racconti in versi, ma raggiunse la celebrità grazie alle due raccolte delle sue Favole, pubblicate nel 1668 e nel 1678-79.

Book excerpt: A new translation of Bassani's moving novel of childhood friendship and the unexpected loss of innocence The years lived since then have not, in the end, been of any use: I haven't managed to remedy the suffering which has remained there like a hidden wound, secretly bleeding. In the fourth book of the Romanzo di Ferrara cycle, Bassani paints a moving portrait of a 1930s childhood in which even the familiar classroom and playground dramas begin to reflect the sinister forces at work in fascist Italy. This powerful tale of friendship and rivalry in the face of the ever encroaching spectre of adulthood adds yet another intricate thread to Bassani's rich tapestry of his native city, Ferrara. 'Giorgio Bassani is one of the great witnesses of this century, and one of its great artists' Guardian 'Powerful new translations . . . Bassani began as a poet, and McKendrick's redelivery of this taut uncompromising fiction reveals resonance and generosity' Ali Smith

Bilingual Editon. Translated from the Italian by Luigi Bonaffini. THE BEDROOM [La camera da letto] is Bertolucci's best-known work, so popular that the poet once read it to television viewers on a seven-hour program. It is a narrative poem that traces the history of the poet's family across seven generations with directness, precision and attention to everyday details, major events and fantastic surprises. Paolo Lagazzi writes in his introduction: "THE BEDROOM is a sort of a multi-novel, or a distillation of very diverse narrative forms and intuitions: a Bildungsroman and fairytale, an epoch novel, a novel-chronicle, a dramatic novel and a picaresque novel. An experimental work in the most authentic sense of the word..." "Nothing of time's essence escapes or is neglected by the author's ravenous sensibility, no less active in recording the multiple places in which existence rests (the city and the countryside, the sea and the plane, the Po river and the Maremma) in an exuberant display of forms, lights, perspectives, tonalities."—Luigi Ferrara

Book excerpt: A new translation of Giorgio Bassani's haunting collection of short stories that evoke 1930s Ferrara, with an introduction by Ali Smith. Isolated lives and a lost world are evoked in these memorable stories set in the Jewish-Italian community of 1930s Ferrara. A young man's unrequited love; a strange disappearance; a faded hotel; a lonely funfair; the smell of mown hay at the gates of the Jewish Cemetery - these vivid, impressionistic snapshots build a picture of life's brevity and intensity. Part of the sequence including The Gold-Rimmed Spectacles and The Garden of the Finzi-Continis, and featuring people and places from these novels, The Smell of Hay is told with a voice that is by turns intimate, ironic, elegiac and rueful. This new translation contains two pieces, added by Bassani to his earlier collection, which have never appeared in English before. 'Powerful new translations . . . Bassani began as a poet, and McKendrick's redelivery of this taut uncompromising fiction reveals resonance and generosity' Ali Smith 'Giorgio Bassani is one of the great witnesses of this century, and one of its great artists' Guardian Giorgio Bassani (1916-2000) was an Italian poet, novelist and editor. The Smell of Hay is the last in a series of six works collected together as Il romanzo di Ferrara. Other works in the cycle include The Garden of the Finzi-Continis, which received the Viareggio Prize and inspired an Academy Award-winning film adaptation by Vittorio de Sica, The Gold-Rimmed Spectacles, and Within the Walls (originally published as Five Stories of Ferrara), which won the Strega Prize. Jamie McKendrick is a poet and translator. His translations of Bassani's The Garden of the Finzi-Continis and The Gold-Rimmed Spectacles are already available as Penguin Modern Classics, and he is in the process of translating the rest of the Romanzo di Ferrara cycle anew.
