Download or read book Capri written by James Money and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2012-11-29 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The air of Capri has had an extraordinary effect on many remarkable people down the centuries - as if the island had come to the collective decision that it was made for pleasure, a commodity that foreign visitors have always found there in spades. It was on Capri that the Emperor Tiberius built a palace where he 'gave vent to all the vices' that he hadn't been able to indulge in Rome. In the nervous days following the trial of Oscar Wilde, English homosexuals found Capri a perfect haven. And in 1919 one Capri resident even remarked on the necessity of swathing her two dogs in chastity belts...James Money's Capri, first published in 1986, is the first full social history of the island: a rambunctious tale that boasts a vivid cast of characters, usually found in various states of congress.

Download or read book Greene on Capri written by Shirley Hazzard and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2000-02-07 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subtle portrait of a great but difficult man and a legendary island. When friends die, one's own credentials change: one becomes a survivor. Graham Greene has already had biographers, one of whom has served him mightily. Yet I hope that there is room for the remembrance of a friend who knew him-not wisely, perhaps, but fairly well-on an island that was "not his kind of place," but where he came season after season, year after year; and where he, too, will be subsumed into the capacious story. For millennia the cliffs of Capri have sheltered pleasure-seekers and refugees alike, among them the emperors Augustus and Tiberius, Henry James, Rilke, and Lenin, and hosts of artists, eccentrics, and outcasts. Here in the 1960s Graham Greene became friends with Shirley Hazzard and her husband, the writer Francis Steegmuller; their friendship lasted until Greene's death in 1991. In Greene on Capri, Hazzard uses their ever volatile intimacy as a prism through which to illuminate Greene's mercurial character, his work and talk, and the extraordinary literary culture that long thrived on this ravishing, enchanted island.

Download or read book Capri and No Longer Capri written by Raffaele La Capria and published by Nation Books. This book was released on 2003-08-01 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raffaele La Capria creates a portrait of Capri that begins in the time of Ulysses and moves to our present complex and hectic reality, and composes an elegy for a Nature blasted by human negligence and error. Americans have now been visiting Capri for many years, and La Capria's book will offer much to newcomers to the island that they would not otherwise have at their disposal, for his slim volume is a guidebook of a special kind, something like a novel and a local Italian guide. Capri has had a long history as a place of retreat, of sensual license, and of unparalleled natural beauty. Without running through the usual list of sights, La Capria gives his reader the sensation of having peered beneath each stone, and of giving an appreciation of what such a place has done to others, some of whom, once under Capri's spell, gave their lives over to their dreams.
Download or read book The Island of Capri Classic Reprint written by Ferdinand Gregorovius and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Island of Capri The writings of Gregorovius, well known in Europe, are less familiar to American readers. This is, I believe, the first translation which has appeared in America of any of the books of this interesting writer. It is a single chapter of his charming work called "Wanderjahre in Italien." Those who may be led by its perusal to seek the other productions of this author will enjoy the same pleasure which the translator has felt in her present labor. The view of Tiberius taken by Gregorovius, though it is generally received, has, as is well known, been seriously questioned by recent scholars. But the translator has not felt at liberty to modify the expressions of the author on this subject. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
