Book excerpt: This book presents a semiotic study of the re-elaboration of Christian narratives and values in a corpus of Italian novels published after the Second Vatican Council (1960s). It tackles the complex set of ideas expressed by Italian writers about the biblical narration of human origins and traditional religious language and ritual, the perceived clash between the immanent and transcendent nature and role of the Church, and the problematic notion of sanctity emerging from contemporary narrative.

Download or read book The Life of God as Told by Himself written by Franco Ferrucci and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-04-26 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Blessed are the readers, for this tale of God’s long insomnia will keep them happily awake . . . An extraordinary story.” —Umberto Eco, international bestselling, award-winning author At the center of Franco Ferrucci’s inspired novel is a tender, troubled God. In the beginning is God’s solitude, and because God is lonely he creates the world. He falls in love with earth, plunges into the oceans, lives as plant and reptile and bird. His every thought and mood serve to populate the planet, with consequences that run away from him—sometimes delightfully, sometimes unfortunately. When a new arrival emerges from the apes, God believes he has finally found the companion he needs to help him make sense of his unruly creation. Yet, as the centuries pass, God feels more and more out of place in the world he has created; by the close of his memoir, he is packing his bags. Highly praised and widely reviewed, The Life of God is a playful, wondrous, and irresistible book, recounting thousands of years of religious and philosophical thought. “‘God’s only excuse is that he does not exist,’ wrote Stendhal, but now Franco Ferrucci has provided the Supreme Being with another sort of alibi.” —James Morrow, The Washington Post Book World “The Life of God is, in truth, the synthesis of a charming writer’s . . . expression of his boundless hopes for, and poignant disappointments in, his own human kind.” —Jack Miles, The New York Times Book Review “Rather endearing . . . This exceedingly amusing novel . . . is a continuous provocation and delight; there isn’t a dull page in it.” —Kirkus Reviews
Download or read book God s Mountain written by Erri De Luca and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2002-12-03 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a story told by a boy in his thirteenth year, recorded in his secret diary. His life is about to change; his world, about to open. He lives in Montedidio—God’s Mountain—a cluster of alleys in the heart of Naples. He brings a paycheck home every Saturday from Mast’Errico’s carpentry workshop where he sweeps the floor. He is on his way to becoming a man—his boy’s voice is abandoning him. His wooden boomerang is neither toy nor tool, but something in between. Then there is Maria, the thirteen-year-old girl who lives above him and, like so many girls, is wiser than he. She carries the burden of a secret life herself. She’ll speak to him for the first time this summer. There is also his friendship with a cobbler named Rafaniello, a Jewish refugee who has escaped the horrors of the Holocaust, who has no idea how long he’s been on this earth, and who is said to sprout wings for a blessed few. It is 1963, a young man’s summer of discovery. A time for a boy with innocent hands and a pure heart to look beyond the ordinary in everyday things to see the far-reaching landscape, and all of its possibilities, from a rooftop terrace on God’s Mountain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tante volte ribadisco nei libri da me curati o scritti che la preghiera è molto importante, forse è tutto nella vita dell’essere umano. La preghiera è l’ossigeno dell’anima, il nutrimento dello spirito, la forza della vita e la linfa vitale della fede. La preghiera può tutto, la preghiera smuove le montagne, la preghiera ci mette in contatto stretto con l’eterno. I Santi sono Santi perché pregavano, anzi pregavano tanto. Anche noi siamo chiamati a pregare e imitare i Santi, ma questo possiamo ottenerlo solo con la preghiera incessante, con l’amore vero verso il Signore. In questo libro raccolgo numerose preghiere con le quali possiamo consacrare ogni giorno la nostra vita al Signore Gesù.

Brigida Di Svezia (voce: Beppe Amico) and published by Giuseppe Amico. This book was released on 2016-09-25 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Versione delle Orazioni di Santa Brigida con Audiolibro in Omaggio. Certamente molti di voi conoscono le Preghiere di Santa Brigida ed anche le grandi promesse legate a queste orazioni. La recita di queste preghiere è piuttosto impegnativa ed ancor più quelle che prevedono un vincolo di 12 anni. E’ per questo che abbiamo pensato di offrire un supporto che possa aiutarvi a recitarle con minor difficoltà. La versione testo e audio delle orazioni da recitare per un anno contenuta in questo e-book multimediale, vi darà la possibilità di recitarle insieme alla voce narrante, magari seguendo l’opuscolo allegato con le preghiere stampate e presenti in questo stesso libretto. In questo e-book trovate quindi le preghiere da recitare per un anno intero in versione stampata e nella stessa pagina di ciascuna orazione una speciale sezione in cui compaiono le tracce audio che potete utilizzare anche quando non siete davanti al computer. Le potete scaricare a parte in versione mp3 e utilizzarle su qualunque supporto abilitato per la riproduzione di questo tipo di file audio. La voce narrante è quella di Beppe Amico, speaker professionista e doppiatore radiotelevisivo. Il tono della voce è impostato secondo i canoni della preghiera di supplica e permette all’ascoltatore di entrare nel vivo della meditazione e della preghiera anche grazie alle musiche di accompagnamento che sono state inserite come sottofondo a ogni orazione.
