Book excerpt: Il protagonista pensa che la sua vita si stia disfacendo, sfuggendogli fra le dita. Un giorno, un sogno ripetuto ed indecifrabile e poi una gita in barca che finisce in tragedia impongono un inesorabile ripensamento del proprio percorso umano. Nuotando da solo per ore in un mare forza sette, immerso nel buio della notte e dell’anima, il naufrago ripercorre tutta la sua vita e ricuce la tela di affetti, storie e fallimenti che puntellano la trama della sua storia, spingendo la morte ed il cedimento un po’ più in là, un minuto alla volta, fino ad un’incredibile rivelazione finale. Una storia vera di resilienza, dove la forza dei legami d’affetto va al di là della paura, della stanchezza e della morte stessa e diventa una celebrazione della vita.

Book excerpt: "If now a swell from the Deep has swept over this planetary ship of earth, and I, who alone chanced to find myself in the furthest stern, as the sole survivor of her crew . . . What then, my God, shall I do?" The Purple Cloud is widely hailed as a masterpiece of science fiction and one of the best "last man" novels ever written. A deadly purple vapor passes over the world and annihilates all living creatures except one man, Adam Jeffson. He embarks on an epic journey across a silent and devastated planet, an apocalyptic Robinson Crusoe putting together the semblance of a normal life from the flotsam and jetsam of his former existence. As he descends into madness over the years, he becomes increasingly aware that his survival was no accident and that his destiny?and the fate of the human race?are part of a profound, cosmological plan.

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.
