Non faceva torto a nessuna, Valerio Biraghi, mobiliere e seduttore impenitente, e concedeva i suoi favori alle cinque amanti con salomonica equanimità. Le riceveva a giorni fissi, a settimane alterne, nel suo elegante pied-à-terre, regalava loro fiori, orologi, profumi, soprattutto attenzioni. Eppure una di loro, o forse un marito, ha voluto troncare la sua carriera di casanova infilzandolo con un ago. Come si fa con le farfalle. Toccherà al commissario Ambrosio indagare, tra Milano e la Brianza, a partire da un tavolinetto Luigi XV, da un'agendina con misteriose iniziali e appuntamenti meticolosamente segnati e soprattutto da un mazzo di Polaroid un po' troppo osé. Ma per scoprire l'assassino dovrà rivelare fatti che, per il bene di molti, sarebbe stato meglio mantenere segreti.

“Sexy, surprising, funny, insightful, and wildly entertaining” (Huffington Post)—the definitive biography of Giacomo Casanova, the impoverished boy who became the famous writer, notorious libertine, and self-invented genius in decadent eighteenth-century Europe. Today, “Casanova” is a synonym for “great lover,” yet the real story of this remarkable figure is little known. A figure straight out of a Henry Fielding novel, Giacomo Casanova was erotic, brilliant, impulsive, and desperate for recognition; a self-destructive genius. Over the course of his lifetime, he claimed to have seduced more than one hundred women, among them married women, young women in convents, girls just barely in their teens, women of high and low birth alike. Abandoned by his mother, an actress and courtesan, Casanova was raised by his illiterate grandmother, coming of age in a Venice filled with spies and political intrigue. He was intellectually curious and read forbidden books, for which he was jailed. He staged a dramatic escape from Venice’s notorious prison, I Piombi, the only person known to have done so. He then fled to France, ingratiated himself at the royal court, and invented the national lottery that still exists to this day. He crisscrossed Europe, landing for a while in St. Petersburg, where he was admitted to the court of Catherine the Great. He corresponded with Voltaire and met Mozart and Lorenzo da Ponte—assisting them as they composed the timeless opera Don Giovanni. And he wrote what many consider the greatest memoir of the era, the twelve-volume Story of My Life. Laurence Bergreen’s Casanova recounts this astonishing life in rich, intimate detail, and at the same time, paints a dazzling portrait of eighteenth-century Europe, filled with a cast characters from serving girls to kings and courtiers, “great fun for any history lover” (Kirkus Reviews).

Giacomo Casanova, Cavaliere di Seingalt, giunto a cinquantatré anni, ormai stanco di avventure erotiche e di traffici politici, sente sempre più forte il bisogno di ritornare nella sua città, Venezia, da cui tanti anni prima era fuggito con la sua mirabolante evasione dai Piombi. Ma, proprio quando la meta è vicina, il destino gli fa incontrare la giovanissima Marcolina, non ancora ventenne eppure dotta studiosa di matematiche superiori e lucida illuminista. Questa donna, che lo guarda con una freddezza che Casanova mai prima aveva visto in uno sguardo femminile, lo costringe a gettarsi perdutamente in un intrigo rovinoso. E, proprio in quell’avventura, gli balena l’immagine di una felicità incomparabile, che vince di sorpresa la sua cinica sapienza: un’immagine che gli si mostra per negarsi poi subito e abbandonarlo, come un’ultima beffarda apparizione della vita. Arthur Schnitzler, il magistrale evocatore della Vienna leggera e crudele degli ultimi anni absburgici, rivela in questo breve romanzo, che è forse la sua opera più segreta e personale, tutta la sua chiaroveggenza psicologica – quella per cui Freud gli scrisse che temeva di incontrarlo in quanto riconosceva in lui il suo Doppio. Una trama maliziosa, che potrebbe apparire di sfuggita in un capitolo delle "Memorie" di Casanova, si dilata qui in un feroce scontro fra Amore e Morte, che viene a porre un sigillo sinistro su questa tappa della carriera di un libertino, ormai segnata dall’angoscia della fine. Come nell’"Andreas" di Hofmannsthal, il décor settecentesco, che Schnitzler ricostruisce con sovrana eleganza, accoglie in una luce d’autunno, nitida e sensuale, un teatro di maschere dietro cui si intravede un mondo di quasi insostenibile dolcezza e crudeltà, quale doveva apparire, in uno sguardo di congedo, al limpido occhio nichilistico dello Schnitzler maturo. E tale è la forza e la precisione musicale del racconto che, senza bisogno che vengano additati, vi affiorano naturalmente i suoi temi: l’impossibilità di ogni ritorno e di ogni unione con se stessi, la lotta con il proprio Doppio, la certezza che il principe degli ingannatori è anche il primo degli ingannati, infine che l’inganno è l’unica forma in cui la vita si offre. "Il ritorno di Casanova" è apparso per la prima volta nel 1918.

This book contributes to the understanding of Dionysos, the Greek god of wine, dancing, theatre and ecstasy, by putting together 30 studies of classical scholars. They combine the analysis of specific instances of particular dimensions of the god in cult, myth, literature and iconography, with general visions of Dionysos in antiquity and modern times. Only from the combination of different perspectives can we grasp the complex personality of Dionysos, and the forms of his presence in different cults, literary genres, and artistic forms, from Mycenaean times to late antiquity. The ways in which Dionysos was experienced may vary in each author, each cult, and each genre in which this god is involved. Therefore, instead of offering a new all-encompassing theory that would immediately become partial, the book narrows the focus on specific aspects of the god. Redefinition does not mean finding (again) the essence of the god, but obtaining a more nuanced knowledge of the ways he was experienced and conceived in antiquity.

The Encyclopedia of Italian Literary Studies is a two-volume reference book containing some 600 entries on all aspects of Italian literary culture. It includes analytical essays on authors and works, from the most important figures of Italian literature to little known authors and works that are influential to the field. The Encyclopedia is distinguished by substantial articles on critics, themes, genres, schools, historical surveys, and other topics related to the overall subject of Italian literary studies. The Encyclopedia also includes writers and subjects of contemporary interest, such as those relating to journalism, film, media, children's literature, food and vernacular literatures.
