Download or read book Sulle tracce di George Orwell in Birmania written by Emma Larkin and published by add editore. This book was released on 2018-05-09 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Birmania gira una battuta popolare, secondo cui Orwell non scrisse soltanto un romanzo sul Paese, Giorni birmani, ma un’intera trilogia, completata da La fattoria degli animali e 1984. La connessione della Birmania (oggi chiamata Myanmar) con George Orwell non è metaforica, ma profonda e reale: sua madre era nata in Birmania al culmine del raj britannico e la nonna viveva ancora lì quando lui decise di arruolarsi.Alla scomparsa di Orwell, il romanzo in stesura trovato sulla sua scrivania era ambientato in Birmania.In un intrepido diario di viaggio dal taglio politico e biografico, Emma Larkin guida il lettore alla scoperta dei luoghi dove Orwell ha vissuto e lavorato come agente della Polizia imperiale britannica, vivendo esperienze che condizionarono profondamente la sua visione del mondo.Attraversando Mandalay e Yangon, le isolate aree meridionali del Delta dell’Irrawaddy e le montagne del nord dove gli inglesi andavano in villeggiatura per sfuggire al caldo delle pianure, l’autrice ritrae una Birmania appassionante e struggente.Prima colonizzata e in seguito governata da una giunta militare isolazionista e brutale, la nazione ha visto la propria storia e identità cancellate a più riprese da metodi di governo orwelliani, che hanno soppresso libertà d’espressione e pensiero.Ispirata dalla chiarezza morale e dal rifiuto dell’ingiustizia di Orwell, l’autrice incontra persone che hanno trovato un modo di resistere agli effetti annientatori di uno dei più crudeli Stati di polizia, restituendo loro dignità. Questo libro è una chiave per riscoprire Orwell, appassionarsi alla Birmania e trovare gli strumenti per capire il travagliato e contraddittorio processo di democratizzazione in corso.

In The Life of Luigi Giussani Alberto Savorana, who spent an important part of his life working and studying with Giussani, draws on many unpublished documents to recount who the priest was and how he lived. Giussani’s life story is particularly significant because it shares many of the same challenges, risks, and paths toward enlightenment that are described in his numerous and influential publications. Savorana demonstrates that the circumstances Giussani experienced and the people he encountered played a crucial role in defining his vocation. Illuminating details are shared about Giussani’s parents, professors, and friends in the seminary, the things he read, his priesthood, his experience teaching, misunderstandings and moments of recognition, and illness. Luigi Giussani considered Christianity to be a fact, a real event in human life, which takes the form of an encounter, inviting anyone and everyone to verify its relevance to life’s needs. This is what happened for so many people all over the world who recognized in this priest and leader, with his rough and captivating voice, not only a teacher to learn from, but above all a man to compare oneself with – a companion for the journey who could be trusted to answer the question: how can we live? In addition to providing the first chronological reconstruction of the life of the founder of Communion and Liberation, The Life of Luigi Giussani provides a detailed account of his legacy and what his life’s work meant to individual people and the Church.

Book excerpt: Avete mai cercato un abbraccio? un amore vero? Vi siete mai innamorati perdutamente di qualcuno o avete sognato di farlo anche se abita in un pianeta distante, anche se disturba il pensiero della gente? Un percorso poetico quello di Alessandro De Chirico, giovane studente genovese, che vuole insegnare che dove esiste amore e tempo non esiste né razionalità e neppure la purezza delle nostre azioni. Una sola cosa accomuna gli amori più belli, la nostra voglia di cambiare, di sognare: le panchine. E' in una panchina che scappa il primo bacio, è da una panchina che, quando sei solo, vorresti cambiare veramente.

Book excerpt: Nel leggere i versi di Lina Sirianni scorro il tempo e le sue fasi che s'avvicendano in quei momenti vissuti con la sua proverbiale essenza. Leggo e noto la semplicità dei versi che si lasciano trasportare regalando quello che la poetessa esige: Le sue emozioni. In questa silloge l'autrice ha voluto scindere tre momenti di vita elaborando poesie che si collocano in quei spazi ch'ella ha voluto. Nelle tracce d'amore si possono evidenziare la solvenza di ciò che esprime con quella grazia e dovizia ove i sentimenti si delineano evocando scritture posate sul cuore. Quel cuore a volte sofferente ma sempre pronto a reagire e collocarsi in un piano di evidente sensibilità emotiva.

Download or read book Gift and the Unity of Being written by Antonio Lopez and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2014-09-25 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting from both our originary experience of being given to ourselves and Jesus Christ's archetypal self-donation, 'Gift and the Unity of Being' elucidates the sense in which gift is the form of being's unity, while unity itself constitutes the permanence of the gift of being. In dialogue with ancient and modern philosophers and theologians, Lopez offers a synthetic, rather than systematic, account of the unity proper to being, the human person, God, and the relations among them. The book shows how contemplation of the triune God of love through Jesus Christ in the Holy Spirit allows us to discover the eternal communion that being is and to which finite being is called. It also illustrates the sense in which God's gratuitousness unexpectedly offers thehuman person the possibility to recognize and embrace his origin and destiny, and thus he is given to see and taste in God's light the ever-fruitful, dramatic, and mysterious positivity of being.

They point to an important element in all of Giussani's work - his proposal that the Christian Event is the answer to the deepest and most pressing questions in today's world.
