Download or read book The Undivine Comedy written by Teodolinda Barolini and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1992-10-30 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accepting Dante's prophetic truth claims on their own terms, Teodolinda Barolini proposes a "detheologized" reading as a global new approach to the Divine Comedy. Not aimed at excising theological concerns from Dante, this approach instead attempts to break out of the hermeneutic guidelines that Dante structured into his poem and that have resulted in theologized readings whose outcomes have been overdetermined by the poet. By detheologizing, the reader can emerge from this poet's hall of mirrors and discover the narrative techniques that enabled Dante to forge a true fiction. Foregrounding the formal exigencies that Dante masked as ideology, Barolini moves from the problems of beginning to those of closure, focusing always on the narrative journey. Her investigation--which treats such topics as the visionary and the poet, the One and the many, narrative and time--reveals some of the transgressive paths trodden by a master of mimesis, some of the ways in which Dante's poetic adventuring is indeed, according to his own lights, Ulyssean.

Download or read book So This is Permanence written by Ian Curtis and published by Chronicle Books. This book was released on 2015-02-24 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A treasure trove of personal writings by the great post-punk singer-songwriter—with a foreword by his wife Deborah and an introduction by Jon Savage. So This Is Permanence presents the lyrics and personal notebooks of one of the most enigmatic and influential music artists of the late twentieth century, Joy Division’s Ian Curtis. The fact of the band’s relatively few releases belies the power and enduring fascination its music holds, especially in light of Curtis’s tragic suicide in 1980 on the eve of the band’s first American tour. This volume features Curtis’s never-before-seen handwritten lyrics, accompanied by earlier drafts and previously unpublished pages from his notebooks that shed fascinating light on his writing and creative process. Also included are an insightful and moving foreword by Curtis’s widow Deborah, a substantial introduction by writer Jon Savage, and an appendix featuring books from Curtis’s library and a selection of fanzine interviews, letters, and other ephemera from his estate.

Book excerpt: Giuseppe Tartini è un giovane violinista che come tanti, per realizzare i propri sogni, è posto davanti al dilemma se seguire la via più giusta per raggiungerli o affidarsi a percorsi più rapidi, ma oscuri. All'inizio del XVIII secolo egli si impossessa, con l'inganno, di alcuni spartiti musicali, dando così inizio ad una vita di grandi successi, ma travagliata. L'intelligenza e l'intraprendenza gli consentiranno di progredire negli studi della più varia natura, tra cui la Magia e la Teurgia, e quindi di scoprire il segreto per non morire. Molti anni dopo, la vita del conte decaduto, Andrè D'Aguilles, attento studioso di antropologia del Sud-est europeo, viene sconvolta dalle Guerre Napoleoniche. Audace ufficiale di cavalleria verrà involontariamente risucchiato nella terribile Crisi di Vampirismo che sconvolgeva l'area carpato-balcanico-danubiana. Fra Moravia, Regno d'Ungheria e Balkan selvaggio, fra indovinelli, saggi ebrei sefarditi, duelli, dolore, morte, sangue e folklore si sviluppa la caccia al misterioso Signore dei Vampiri. Tartini, Paganini e Andrè simboleggiano il Male e il Bene, e le scelte che fin da giovani si è chiamati a fare.
Download or read book Qui non crescono i fiori written by Luca Giordano and published by Isbn Edizioni. This book was released on 2013-07-03 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salvatore e suo fratello Damiano sono nati sull’Isola. Sono cresciuti con il padre, un uomo ruvido che ha una piccola officina meccanica e che ogni tanto cede al vecchio vizio dell’alcol. La madre, Salvatore non se la ricorda, se n’è andata quando lui era piccolo, e nessuno gli vuole raccontare nulla di lei. Questi tre uomini sono – nonostante tutto – una famiglia. Intorno a loro ci sono solo mare a perdita d’occhio, un paesaggio brullo che non lascia scampo e un’afa che sembra paralizzare ogni prospettiva. Una caletta azzurra incastonata tra le rocce è la cornice dei loro momenti di libertà. I due fratelli, ognuno a modo suo, cercano una via per evadere da quell’Isola che pare abitarli come una maledizione, un modo per ammansire la terra selvaggia che li circonda: Salvatore, appena adolescente, li trova in una cascina abbandonata in mezzo ai campi, dove il padre gli ha proibito di andare. Ignorando il divieto, il ragazzino ci si rifugia appena può perché quel luogo è solo suo, e lì tiene nascosto un segreto: un cane randagio con cui sta tentando di fare amicizia. Non sa che quel posto custodisce un altro segreto, molto più oscuro, qualcosa da cui il padre ha sempre cercato di proteggerlo. Una nuova voce della narrativa italiana – aspra e vivida – racconta con sensibilità la storia di due ragazzi che si misurano coi propri nemici, e che ce la mettono tutta per addomesticarli.
