Book excerpt: The rugged landscape of Baronia on Sardinia sets the scene for this novel of crime, guilt and retribution. This novel presents the story of the Pintor sisters - from a family of noble landowners now in decline - their nephew Giacinto, and their servant Efix, who is trying to make up for a mysterious sin committed many years before. Around, below, and inside them the raging Mediterranean storms, the jagged mountains, the murmuring forests, and the gushing springs form a Greek chorus of witness to the tragic drama of this unforgiving land. Deledda tells her story with her characteristic love of the natural landscape and fascination with the folk culture of the island, with details about the famous religious festivals held in mountain encampments and the lore of the "dark beings who populate the Sardinian night, the fairies who live in rocks and caves, and the sprites with seven red caps who bother sleep." Introduction by the Sardinian ethnographer, Dolores Turchi.

Download or read book Prima di dirti amore Before calling you love written by Giuseppe Berton and published by Aletti Editore. This book was released on 2021-11-15 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Giuseppe Berton è nato a Zurigo, vive a Conegliano con Stefania, lavora come dottore in cardiologia, e come ricercatore. Principalmente si perde in pensieri persi. Altre volte corre maratone a piedi (incluse alcune delle più belle del mondo), trials montani, o fa bici, o scia. È fondatore e presidente dell'ABC Study on Heart Disease Foundation-ONLUS per la ricerca sulla malattia coronarica e tumori. Lui pensa che lo scrivere poesia sia vicino al mondo della pittura, allo stesso modo di mettere giù sulla carta/tela i movimenti dell'anima, le emozioni e i colori. Non serve dizionario per comprendere i versi. Basta il cuore per comprendere la lingua del poeta. Questo libro contiene una lunga poesia dedicata alla Luna. È venuta così, solo per averla guardata fitta in una sera bella, con l'anima vagamente tormentata. L'autore spera che Giacomo Leopardi, quando la leggerà, sia benevolo nel giudizio.

Download or read book Magic written by Ernesto De Martino and published by Hau. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though his work was little known outside Italian intellectual circles for most of the twentieth century, anthropologist and historian of religions Ernesto de Martino is now recognized as one of the most original thinkers in the field. This book is testament to de Martino's innovation and engagement with Hegelian historicism and phenomenology--a work of ethnographic theory way ahead of its time. This new translation of Sud e Magia, his 1959 study of ceremonial magic and witchcraft in southern Italy, shows how De Martino is not interested in the question of whether magic is rational or irrational but rather in why it came to be perceived as a problem of knowledge in the first place. Setting his exploration within his wider, pathbreaking theorization of ritual, as well as in the context of his politically sensitive analysis of the global south's historical encounters with Western science, he presents the development of magic and ritual in Enlightenment Naples as a paradigmatic example of the complex dynamics between dominant and subaltern cultures. Far ahead of its time, Magic is still relevant as anthropologists continue to wrestle with modernity's relationship with magical thinking.
