Download or read book Versi d'amore A cura di Cristina Contilli written by Silvio Pellico and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-10-19 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Silvio Pellico e conosciuto per il suo libro di memorie ("Le mie prigioni," pubblicato dall'editore Bocca di Torino nel 1832), ma nel periodo risorgimentale era considerato anche un apprezzato autore sia di testi teatrali sia di poesie a carattere intimista e autobiografico. Silvio Pellico ha avuto, infatti, poche, ma intense storie d'amore che ha saputo rievocare con toni, a volte appassionati, a volte nostalgici, nelle poesie della raccolta "Poesie inedite," stampata a Torino nel 1837, ma anche nel vaudeville "La festa di Bussone," scritto nel 1820 per l'attrice Teresa (Gegia) Marchionni..."
Book Synopsis Tempeste nel silenzio Amicizie, amori e idee politiche di Silvio Pellico in uno dei periodi meno conosciuti della sua vita (1842-1852) Edizione con le illustrazioni a colori by : Cristina Contilli
Download or read book Tempeste nel silenzio Amicizie, amori e idee politiche di Silvio Pellico in uno dei periodi meno conosciuti della sua vita (1842-1852) Edizione con le illustrazioni a colori written by Cristina Contilli and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-12-29 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cristina Contilli ha uno stile di scrittura incisivo e scorrevole, che arriva subito al cuore dei lettori. E anche con questo romanzo non si smentisce. Racconta, in fase romanzata, una delle fasi meno conosciute della vita del grande Silvio Pellico, tra i suoi amori, dubbi, incertezze e problemi di salute. Il titolo del libro è azzeccatissimo, in quanto Pellico per parecchi anni della sua vita ha vissuto dei tempestosi tormenti dell'animo, in assoluto silenzio, che poi solo in età avanzata si sono affievoliti, consentendogli di vivere in pienezza il suo grande amore di sempre. La Contilli, poi, ha svolto un'indagine davvero accurata per scrivere questo romanzo, come fa sempre, d'altronde, senza lasciare nulla al caso. Bello, da leggere!

Book Synopsis New Reflections on Primo Levi by : Risa Sodi
Download or read book New Reflections on Primo Levi written by Risa Sodi and published by Italian and Italian American S. This book was released on 2011-06-13 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Primo Levi’s hold on scholarly, critical and public attention grows with the passing of time. He commands a position of prominence in discourses ranging across the disciplines of Holocaust studies, Jewish studies, Italian literature, politics, history and philosophy. Certain of his concepts (the “grey zone”) or certain concepts popularized through his works (the Musulmann phenomenon) play a significant role in contemporary intellectual discourse. In addition, Levi’s reflections on the act and the possibility of witness, and of recounting trauma, are increasingly cited by a range of thinkers. This book presents a baker’s dozen of interpretative keys to Levi’s output and thought. It deepens our understanding of common themes in Levi studies (memory and witness) while exploring unusual and revealing byways (Levi and Calvino, or Levi and theater, for example). Of special interest and utility are the chapters that situate his thought within wider contexts: his epistemological connection to ancient Greeks, and his contributions to Holocaust phenomenology.

Book excerpt: From one of Italy’s greatest writers, a stunning novel “filled with shimmering, risky, darting observation” (Colm Tóibín) After WWII, a small Italian town struggles to emerge from under the thumb of Fascism. With wit, tenderness, and irony, Elsa, the novel’s narrator, weaves a rich tapestry of provincial Italian life: two generations of neighbors and relatives, their gossip and shattered dreams, their heartbreaks and struggles to find happiness. Elsa wants to imagine a future for herself, free from the expectations and burdens of her town’s history, but the weight of the past will always prove unbearable, insistently posing the question: “Why has everything been ruined?”

Book Synopsis On Crimes and Punishments and Other Writings by : Cesare Beccaria
Download or read book On Crimes and Punishments and Other Writings written by Cesare Beccaria and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2009-05-05 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published in 1764, On Crimes and Punishments by Cesare Beccaria (1738–1794) courted both success and controversy in Europe and North America. Enlightenment luminaries and enlightened monarchs alike lauded the text and looked to it for ideas that might help guide the various reform projects of the day. The equality of every citizen before the law, the right to a fair trial, the abolition of the death penalty, the elimination of the use of torture in criminal interrogations—these are but a few of the vital arguments articulated by Beccaria. This volume offers a new English translation of On Crimes and Punishment alongside writings by a number of Beccaria’s contemporaries. Of particular interest is Voltaire’s commentary on the text, which is included in its entirety. The supplementary materials testify not only to the power and significance of Beccaria’s ideas, but to the controversial reception of his book. At the same time that philosophes proclaimed that it contained principles of enduring importance to any society grappling with matters of political and criminal justice, allies of the ancien régime roundly denounced it, fearing that the book’s attack on feudal privileges and its call to separate law from religion (and thus crime from sin) would undermine their longstanding privileges and powers. Long appreciated as a foundational text in criminology, Beccaria’s arguments have become central in debates over capital punishment. This new edition presents Beccaria’s On Crimes and Punishments as an important and influential work of Enlightenment political theory.

Book Synopsis Mafia Vendetta by : Leonardo Sciascia
Download or read book Mafia Vendetta written by Leonardo Sciascia and published by . This book was released on 1964 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Italian cultural and political discussions, "the problem of the South" occurs as frequently as it does in America, though with quite a different meaning. Inevitably, such discussions must include Sicily, the island that gave to the languages of the world the two words which form the American title of Leonardo Sciascia's novella, along with that nearly untranslatable word omertd. The Italian South (and, especially, Sicily) means crime and violence and the corruption of public justice by a secret organization which cannot even be proved to exist -- since the code of omerto (which means, literally, "connivance") binds even the innocent to what Signor Sciascia calls "the conspiracy of silence." Americans were familiar with the impact of Sicily upon our own crime and justice long before last fall's news stories on the Cosa Nostra -- but when this little book appeared in ItaIy, it created a public sensation, even though the author's afterword describes the care with which he tried to conform
