Per quanto sconfitta e conclusasi in una triste tragedia, la Comune di Parigi del 1871 diede voce a un possibile che si è impresso per sempre nella memoria storica: è concepibile una vita senza rapporti di servitù e sfruttamento, senza il dominio esclusivo del denaro, senza Stato e senza capitale? Con tutti i limiti e le contraddizioni che hanno contribuito alla loro sconfitta, gli uomini e le donne della Comune tentarono di dissolvere le strutture burocratiche dello Stato-nazione centralizzato. Ciò che sembrava fantasma e immagine di sogno si mostrava invece come utopia concreta. La Comune realizzò una riorganizzazione della vita quotidiana, nella sua pratica sociale, molto più rilevante di qualsiasi atto di governo: in tal senso essa è l'indicazione di uno stile di vita: «Estendere la dimensione estetica alla vita quotidiana, come richiesto sotto la Comune dalla Federazione degli Artisti, non solo rende l'arte accessibile a tutti, ma la rende anche parte integrale di qualsiasi processo creativo. Si crea una nuova relazione sensibile con i materiali - la loro consistenza, densità, malleabilità, resistenza - e con i processi lavorativi propri di ciascuno, con le tappe necessarie per la loro realizzazione e, d'altro lato, con la nuova riproduzione delle abilità di chi vi ha partecipato» (Ross). Il lusso comune è una riconfigurazione della vita quotidiana in cui - al di là di ogni separazione di classe - l'arte e la pratica del lavoro si fondono in una nuova unità vitale, in un gioco armonico.

Les rites anciens oubliés dévoile les découvertes archéologiques les plus récentes (2024 2025) sur des traditions longtemps enfouies. De l'ensorcellement transmis pendant douze millénaires en Australie aux offrandes végétales cachées sous un terrain de balle mésoaméricain, l'ouvrage montre comment les rites façonnent les sociétés et traversent les âges.

Pour les lecteurs curieux d'anthropologie, d'histoire ou de spiritualité, il offre une plongée captivante dans les mondes disparus et questionne notre propre rapport au rite.

In `Tijger, tijger' neemt schrijfster Margaux Fragoso een duik in haar verleden, waar ze jarenlang werd misbruikt door een veel oudere man.

`An Echo of Antietam' (1898) is a short story by the American author, Edward Bellamy, most famous for his socialist and utopian novel `Looking Backward: 2000-1887' (1888). Young couple Grace Roberts and Philip King are in love, but the civil war is raging and tearing their country apart. Set during the battle of Antietam, which proved a significant turning point in the war, this love story details the horrors of battle and the power of a just cause. A delightful yet emotional read, ´An Echo of Antietam´ is perfect for fans of Ambrose Bierce's ´An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge´ as well as those generally interested in the American Civil War. Edward Bellamy (1850 - May 22) was an American author, journalist and political activist. His novel `Looking Backward: 2000-1887' (1888) was one of the most successful books published in the United States in the 19th century and influenced a generation of intellectuals. Referenced in many Marxist publications of the time, the book inspired the formation of Nationalist Clubs dedicated to spreading his political ideas. Bellamy's other works include the novels `Six to One' (1878), `Dr. Heidenhoff's Process' (1880), `Miss Ludington's Sister' (1885), `Equality' (1897), and `The Duke of Stockbridge; a Romance of Shays' Rebellion (1900)'.

Con ben cinquant'anni di anticipo sul classico "A sangue freddo" di Truman Capote (1966) e quasi un secolo prima de "L'avversario" di Emmanuel Carrère (2000), Annie Vivanti firma un precoce esempio di "romanzo-verità", raccontando la vita di una donna che nel 1910 aveva sedotto e inquietato l'opinione pubblica italiana. Maria Tarnowskaja (1877-1949), con la sua vita dissoluta, i suoi molteplici amanti e i crimini in cui era coinvolta, rappresenta un personaggio di estremo interesse per l'autrice. Così, dopo aver seguito il processo per l'omicidio del conte Pavel Kamarovsky (consumatosi a Venezia nel 1907), la scrittrice si reca al penitenziario di Trani in cui la femme fatale russa sconta una pena di otto anni. Avrà così modo di ricevere il quaderno di memorie della donna, grazie a cui comporrà questo libro straordinario. Anna Emilia Vivanti (1866-1942) nasce nel sobborgo londinese di Norwood, dove il padre - fautore degli ideali mazziniani - si è rifugiato per scampare all'arresto. Cresciuta fra Italia, Svizzera, Inghilterra e Stati Uniti, esordisce con la raccolta poetica "Lirica" (1890). Dal matrimonio con John Chartres, indipendentista irlandese, nasce la figlia Vivien, che nei primi anni del Novecento si affermerà come enfant prodige del violino. In questi anni pubblica racconti, romanzi e opere teatrali in inglese. "I divoratori" (1911) segna l'inizio di un lungo successo editoriale anche in Italia, dove Annie si trasferisce in seguito alla Grande Guerra. Nel 1941 viene trattenuta dalle autorità fasciste a causa della sua cittadinanza inglese, ma Mussolini in persona intercede per permetterle di abitare a Torino. Personalità eclettica ed estremamente cosmopolita, Annie Vivanti è nota per romanzi come "Naja tripudians", "Mea culpa" e "Vae victis!".

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Benjamin Franklin was one of the first to fear German immigrants, who were flooding the colonies in large numbers. He believed that they would never assimilate and would instead, outnumber the English. #2 The story of German immigrants in Pennsylvania highlights the complexity of xenophobia, as well as the different contexts in which it flourishes. German immigrants were not just feared and hated, but they also provided labor and bodies to settle and develop the colony. #3 Germans were among the first settlers in Pennsylvania, and they were extremely positive about the new land. They were given free land, economic opportunity, and religious toleration, all of which attracted more Germans to Pennsylvania. #4 The German immigration to Pennsylvania was primarily made up of farmers and tradesmen, and they were typically Protestant. They were able to acquire large tracts of land and were relatively prosperous within two decades of settlement.

As the people of Persia celebrate the new year, an Indian stranger arrives at the Sultan's court, riding a wooden horse. More than just a mechanical marvel, this horse has the power of flight, and can carry its rider halfway around the world in a single day. When the Sultan proposes to buy it for his son, though, the stranger agrees to exchange it for one thing: the Sultan's daughter. Be transported by a tale of magic and love in "The Enchanted Horse", the thirty-third of the 34 tales in the classic Arabian Nights collection, translated into English by Andrew Lang. A treasure-trove of timeless stories, the One Thousand and One Nights or Arabian Nights have been loved, imitated, and added to over many centuries. Similar to the fairy tales collected by the Brothers Grimm, the Arabian Nights are drawn from the folklore of India, Iran and the Middle East, and were collected in Arabic versions throughout the medieval period; others were added as recently as the eighteenth century. These stories of the exotic East have been popularised for new generations by film adaptations such as Disney's Aladdin, starring Robin Williams and Gilbert Gottfried in 1992, and Will Smith in 2019, and Dreamworks' Sinbad, starring Brad Pitt and Michelle Pfeiffer. They continue to inspire writers as varied as Salman Rushdie and Neil Gaiman, while numerous Bollywood and manga versions attest to their popularity around the world. These stories of magic, adventure and romance have shaped readers' imaginations for generations, and are sure to be retold for years to come. This selection was translated by Andrew Lang from the French versions by Antoine Galland, who was the first to include the stories of Aladdin and Ali Baba. Born in Scotland in 1844, Lang was a scholar of ancient Greek, a journalist, historian, novelist and poet, and the author of 25 popular collections of fairy tales; his edition of the Arabian Nights' Entertainment was published in 1898. He became a Fellow of the British Academy in 1906, and died in 1912.

Sindbad intraprese il suo sesto viaggio, che naturalmente gli causò molti pericoli. Finì tutto solo su un'isola e, sebbene la sua morte sembrasse ormai predestinata, riuscì a trovare una via d'uscita. Costruì una zattera e navigò lungo uno strano fiume che scorreva in una grotta. La grotta non era però una semplice grotta: era piena di ricchezze e gioielli che Sindbad prese volentieri. Ma dove lo porterà questo fiume? E queste ricchezze, gli faranno bene? Troverai le risposte all'interno del "Sesto viaggio di Sindbad il marinaio". Monumento letterario ineguagliabile e senza tempo, la raccolta di novelle "Le mille e una notte" ha ammaliato per molti secoli l'immaginario di generazioni in tutto il mondo. Complice del successo di questo racconto è senza dubbio il fascino di Shahrazad, figlia del gran visir, che, per salvare le donne della sua città dalla furia del sovrano di Persia Shahriyar, lo trasporta in un mondo di racconti magici fino a farlo innamorare. Forse uno dei più grandi contributi alla letteratura araba e mondiale di tutti i tempi, "Le mille e una notte" è un'opera che ha saputo ispirare grandi classici come il "Decameron" di Boccaccio, ma anche avventure contemporanee sul grande schermo. Chi non ha mai sentito parlare di Aladdin, Ali Baba, Sindbad o del genio della lampada? È il momento quindi di riscoprire la bellezza di questi racconti e gli insegnamenti che celano, uno per uno, per mille e una notte.

"Il Ritratto Ovale" è un racconto dell'orrore che ruota attorno al complesso e spesso tragico rapporto tra la vita e l'arte. Un viandante trova rifugio in una villa abbandonata in un luogo non specificato in Italia. Una volta dentro, rimane affascinato da uno dei dipinti e decide di scoprirne la bellezza. Il racconto esplicativo si intreccia con la narrazione originale, e insieme all'intensa profondità emotiva e psicologica dell'infatuazione del narratore per il ritratto, creano un racconto affascinante e ossessivo, che ha come protagonista l'immortalità dell'arte. Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) è stato un poeta, autore e critico letterario americano. Famoso soprattutto per le sue poesie, i suoi racconti soprannaturali, macabri e misteriosi, è anche considerato l'inventore del genere poliziesco e un contributore del genere fantascientifico, del romanticismo oscuro e della narrativa bizzarra. Le sue opere più famose sono "Il Corvo" (1945), "Il gatto nero" (1943) e "Lo scarabeo d'oro" (1843).
