Book excerpt: Dietro la parola “io” c’è oggi una grande confusione, eppure la comprensione di cosa è il mio soggetto è il primo interesse. Nulla è così affascinante come la scoperta delle reali dimensioni del proprio “io”. E nulla è così commovente come il fatto che Dio si sia fatto uomo per accompagnare il cammino faticoso di ognuno alla ricerca del proprio volto umano. L’esistenza rappresenta innanzitutto una “decisione” circa ciò che si riconosce come proprio fondamento: e tale decisione è un avvenimento che si ripropone di continuo. L’incontro con l’avvenimento cristiano è da duemila anni l’incontro con un fenomeno umano nel quale la passione per la scoperta del proprio volto e l’apertura alla realtà risultano “stranamente” desti, ed esso ha come inevitabile conseguenza l’inaugurarsi di un nuovo tipo di “moralità”, che avviene secondo la dinamica ben sorpresa da Romano Guardini: “Nell’esperienza di un grande amore tutto ciò che accade diventa un avvenimento nel suo ambito”.
Download or read book Vivere la nuova nascita written by Angelo Baglio and published by Passerino Editore. This book was released on 2021-04-29 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questo testo si rivela un’autentica testimonianza di fede nel Cristo Risorto, che ti apre la strada, attraverso l’invio dello Spirito Santo, ad una vita nuova. Il mondo propone, in maniera implicita e velata, una mentalità edonista e nichilista: vivi godendoti ogni istante della vita, andando anche al piacere sfrenato, all’attaccamento all’oggi effimero e vuoto, perché dopo la morte non c’è più speranza nell’esistenza che è destinata al vuoto della morte. Il Cristo Risorto inaugura una strada nuova: scegli di vivere pensando anche alla morte, ma come il passaggio ad un’esistenza redenta, come la definiva un teologo, Ladislaus Boros, che già su questa terra puoi vivere grazie all’azione dello Spirito Santo, che è la fonte della novità assoluta. Lo Spirito Santo è la Terza Persona della SS Trinità, che è comunione del Padre e del Figlio, che è Amore ad intra, che nella Rivelazione escono dal Mistero per rendersi comunione visibile con gli uomini e tra gli uomini. Un Mistero di Amore che si è fatto carne in Cristo Gesù, cioè storia concreta vissuta in un per sempre e una volta per tutte che ha trasformato la storia passata, presente e futura. Passata perché ha anche “sorpreso” l’attesa del Messia da parte dei profeti vetero- testamentari; presente perché lo Spirito Santo presenzia nella Chiesa, nella Parola, nei sacramenti, l’unica Presenza che significa tutta la realtà: il Cristo Crocifisso e Risorto. L’autore di questo libro ha fatto esperienza concreta della Presenza del Risorto nella sua vita e attraverso questo testo, vuole testimoniarlo a chi sfoglierà le pagine del testo, che si rivela dono per scegliere la via per eccellenza dell’azione dello Spirito: la conversione. Convertirsi non è solamente cambiare vita- questa è una conseguenza - ma è capacità di vita nuova che anticipa l’esperienza del Paradiso, inteso come uno stato di vita sciolta dai vincoli della morte e del peccato (inteso come “morte interiore”). L’esperienza dello Spirito, come testimonia Angelo Baglio, non è solamente personale, altrimenti rischia di scadere nel privato sentimentalismo, che relega e propriamente “ingabbia” lo Spirito del Risorto entro schemi puramente umani. Ma è un’esperienza comunitaria che si concretizza con l’Ecclesia, che è il radunarsi attorno ad uno stesso altare, ascoltare la medesima Parola, cibarsi dell’unico Pane di Vita, sperimentare la vera carità fra gli uomini. La Chiesa non è famiglia perché esprime solo l’aspetto umano, ma per la sua natura teandrica, cioè di natura divina e umana, annuncia il divino in noi, che ci dà speranza certa per vivere in questo mondo alla continua ricerca dei beni eterni, che non periscono come le cose materiali o gli illusori progetti che un uomo si costruisce. Pertanto il tuo Si a Cristo è il sì alla vita, alla novità dello Spirito in te, alla freschezza del Vangelo, che è continuo annuncio di gioia e di fiducia nella vita eterna. Questo testo aiuta a comprendere come il cristiano non può essere triste, ma deve abbandonare il lievito vecchio ogni giorno, deve ricominciare continuamente a ri-vivere, morendo continuamente a se stesso, ridandosi il coraggio nel si che rinnova ogni mattina, in cui ringrazia il Signore per questa “esistenza di salvezza”. Don Luigi Biancheri

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).

Download or read book The Years of Alienation in Italy written by Alessandra Diazzi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-11 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Years of Alienation in Italy offers an interdisciplinary overview of the socio-political, psychological, philosophical, and cultural meanings that the notion of alienation took on in Italy between the 1960s and the 1970s. It addresses alienation as a social condition of estrangement caused by the capitalist system, a pathological state of the mind and an ontological condition of subjectivity. Contributors to the edited volume explore the pervasive influence this multifarious concept had on literature, cinema, architecture, and photography in Italy. The collection also theoretically reassesses the notion of alienation from a novel perspective, employing Italy as a paradigmatic case study in its pioneering role in the revolution of mental health care and factory work during these two decades.

Download or read book Threadsuns written by Paul Celan and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "One of Paul Celan's most important books of poems, Threadsuns follows the Green Integer press publication of Breathturn, which received international critical acclaim. Consisting of 105 poems, arranged in five cycles, Threadsuns was composed between September 1965 and June 1967. If Breathturn was the opening gambit of Celan's "turn," the entry into the late work, then Threadsuns - the volume that may have received the least amount of commentary and analysis to date - may be said to be not only an extension or continuation of the previous volume, but the full-blown realization of Celan's late work."--BOOK JACKET.

Audacious with ambition, Desdemona is Toni Morrison's intimate reimagining of the fourth act of Shakespeare's Othello, mixing monologue with Rokia Traore's lyrical songs to re-examine the Bard's presentation of race and female suffering. Part-play, part-concert, part-quest into the afterlife, Desdemona is published in Methuen Drama's Modern Classics series, featuring a new introduction by Joyce Green MacDonald.

Download or read book The Good Wife s Guide Le M nagier de Paris written by and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2012-08-22 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the closing years of the fourteenth century, an anonymous French writer compiled a book addressed to a fifteen-year-old bride, narrated in the voice of her husband, a wealthy, aging Parisian. The book was designed to teach this young wife the moral attributes, duties, and conduct befitting a woman of her station in society, in the almost certain event of her widowhood and subsequent remarriage. The work also provides a rich assembly of practical materials for the wife's use and for her household, including treatises on gardening and shopping, tips on choosing servants, directions on the medical care of horses and the training of hawks, plus menus for elaborate feasts, and more than 380 recipes. The Good Wife's Guide is the first complete modern English translation of this important medieval text also known as Le Ménagier de Paris (the Parisian household book), a work long recognized for its unique insights into the domestic life of the bourgeoisie during the later Middle Ages. The Good Wife's Guide, expertly rendered into modern English by Gina L. Greco and Christine M. Rose, is accompanied by an informative critical introduction setting the work in its proper medieval context as a conduct manual. This edition presents the book in its entirety, as it must have existed for its earliest readers. The Guide is now a treasure for the classroom, appealing to anyone studying medieval literature or history or considering the complex lives of medieval women. It illuminates the milieu and composition process of medieval authors and will in turn fascinate cooking or horticulture enthusiasts. The work illustrates how a (perhaps fictional) Parisian householder of the late fourteenth century might well have trained his wife so that her behavior could reflect honorably on him and enhance his reputation.
