Book Synopsis The Italian Prisoner by : Elisa M. Speranza
Download or read book The Italian Prisoner written by Elisa M. Speranza and published by Burgundy Bend Press. This book was released on 2022-04-11 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1943. New Orleans. Rose Marino lives with her Sicilian immigrant parents and helps in the family grocery store. Her older brother and sister both joined the Army, and Rose prays for their safety as World War II rages overseas. Her parents expect Rose to marry a local boy and start a family. But she secretly dreams of being more like her fiercely independent widowed godmother. Behind her parents’ back, Rose lands a job at the shipyard, where she feels free and important for the first time in her life. When the parish priest organizes a goodwill mission to visit Italian prisoners of war at a nearby military base, Rose and her vivacious best friend, Marie, join the group. There, Rose falls for Sal, a handsome and intelligent POW. Italy has switched sides in the war, so the POWs are allowed out to socialize, giving Rose and Sal a chance to grow closer. When Rose gets a promotion at work, she must make an agonizing choice: follow a traditional path like Marie or keep working after the war and live on her own terms. Inspired by little-known historical events and set to a swing-era soundtrack, The Italian Prisoner is an engrossing story of wartime love, family secrets, and a young woman’s struggle to chart her own course at an inflection point in American history.

Book Synopsis Signora Speranza (Italian Classics) by : Luigi Pirandello
Download or read book Signora Speranza (Italian Classics) written by Luigi Pirandello and published by Mondial. This book was released on 2015-02-22 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Luigi Pirandello (1867-1936), master of style, appeared first as poet, pure in style, severe in inspiration, but later "found himself" in writing humorous tales, novels and especially dramas. His humor, though at bottom sad and almost pessimistic, is not of a quiet sort. To him man appears as a creature more miserable than grotesque, eternally made sport of by the irony of fate. Such is the philosophy in "Signora Speranza", one of the most characteristic of his novellas. In 1934 Pirandello was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature.

Download or read book Vivere la Speranza written by Pierpaolo Barnieri and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-08-04 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I motivi che danno vita alla Speranza e le forme in cui questa si esprime sono i più vari, ma tutti hanno come prerequisito la volontà inenarrabile di dare senso alla propria esistenza, al proprio soffrire e morire. Per chi è stata importante la mia esistenza? Perché sono nato, vissuto, ho sofferto ed infine sono morto? Le risposte sono i compiti esistenziali di ognuno. [...] È chiaro che per riconquistare le condizioni per vivere la Speranza, dovremo applicare una terapia d'urto, come si fa per le gravi malattie: la restaurazione della persona umana, un'educazione del cuore, per dare un senso al nostro soffrire e al nostro esistere".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Per secoli i Balcani occidentali hanno rappresentato un crocevia tra Europa centrale e Oriente. I paesi dei Balcani occidentali, devastati da tragici conflitti, nazionalismi e mancati investimenti, lottano per trovare un nuovo equilibrio. Cittadini e istituzioni balcaniche hanno più volte affermato la propria ambizione di entrare a far parte dell'Unione europea e hanno compiuto notevoli sforzi per trasformare questo sogno in realtà. Negli ultimi vent'anni gli interventi della Banca europea per gli investimenti (BEI) nella regione sono stati consistenti. La BEI ha infatti contribuito alla realizzazione di corridoi di trasporto paneuropei, sostenuto investimenti diretti esteri e promosso la rigenerazione delle aree urbane; ha offerto assistenza tecnica e finanziamenti per migliorare e sviluppare infrastrutture sociali ed economiche e promuovere la crescita del settore privato come motore a sostegno dell'occupazione. I Balcani occidentali possono guardare avanti con la speranza di un futuro più luminoso e più verde. Matteo Rivellini è a capo della Divisione della Banca europea per gli investimenti che si occupa delle operazioni di prestito in Slovenia, Croazia e nei Balcani occidentali. Questo è il tredicesimo essay della serie Big Ideas creata dalla Banca europea per gli investimenti.
