Nel suo capolavoro, Federico De Roberto narra la saga degli Uzeda di Francalanza, famiglia nobile catanese. Un appassionante romanzo che si svolge sullo sfondo del Risorgimento meridionale e di un’epidemia di colera; le vicende degli Uzeda sono raccontate con sapiente critica ai costumi della nobiltà e alla corruzione ecclesiastica, nonché alla politica della nascente Italia. I personaggi offrono, tra molteplici colpi di scena, una incredibile varietà di sfumature dell’animo umano. In una lettera a De Giorgi, De Roberto lo descrisse così: «La storia d'una gran famiglia, la quale deve essere composta di quattordici o quindici tipi, tra maschi e femmine, uno più forte e stravagante dell'altro. Il primo titolo era Vecchia razza: ciò ti dimostri l'intenzione ultima, che dovrebbe essere il decadimento fisico e morale d'una stirpe esausta». Il romanzo non ebbe fortuna perché considerato troppo critico e sarcastico, finchè nel 1977, finalmente, Leonardo Sciascia lo definì: «Dopo I Promessi sposi, il più grande romanzo che conti la letteratura italiana». Oggi è considerato uno dei massimi capolavori del Verismo italiano. L’autore: Federico De Roberto (Napoli, 16 gennaio 1861 – Catania, 26 luglio 1927) apparteneva ad una nobile famiglia di Catania, e crebbe nella città siciliana. I suoi esordi di narratore avvennero all’insegna del Verismo, alla cui poetica continuò a fare riferimento nel corso della sua lunga attività di scrittore. Nel decennio milanese De Roberto pubblicò numerose raccolte di racconti, tra le quali Documenti umani (1888), L’albero della scienza (1890), Processi verbali (1890); pubblicò inoltre il romanzo L’illusione (1891), il primo dedicato dallo scrittore al ciclo della nobile famiglia Uzeda; seguiranno I Viceré (1894), considerato il suo capolavoro, e quindi L’imperio (pubblicato postumo nel 1929). De Roberto approfondì inoltre la filosofia del Positivismo in numerosi saggi, sia di argomento letterario (Leopardi, 1898; L’arte, 1901), sia dedicati, con taglio prevalentemente scientifico, alle problematiche dell’amore: La morte dell’amore (1892), L’amore. Fisiologia, Psicologica. Morale (1895) e altri. Nel 1920 uscirono altri due volumi di racconti: La cocotte e Ironie. De Roberto morì a Catania nel 1927. Postumo uscì il volume di scritti critici da lui affettuosamente dedicati all’amico Verga, dal titolo Casa Verga e altri saggi verghiani (1964). Il curatore: Cecilia Tomassini nasce a Fermo nel 1994. Inizia gli studi classici al Liceo "Annibal Caro", dove si diploma nel 2013. Nel 2019 si laurea in Filologia classica presso l'Università di Bologna con una tesi in Filologia e letteratura greca relativa all'analisi dei personaggi barbari all'interno delle tragedie euripidee. Attualmente insegna discipline letterarie ed umanistiche nelle scuole secondarie di primo e secondo grado della provincia.

The Imagined Immigrant written by Ilaria Serra and has been published by Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2009 with History categories.
Using original sources--such as newspaper articles, silent movies, letters, autobiographies, and interviews--Ilaria Serra depicts a large tapestry of images that accompanied mass Italian migration to the U.S. at the turn of the twentieth century. She chooses to translate the Italian concept of immaginario with the Latin imago that felicitously blends the double English translation of the word as "imagery" and "imaginary." Imago is a complex knot of collective representations of the immigrant subject, a mental production that finds concrete expression; impalpable, yet real. The "imagined immigrant" walks alongside the real one in flesh and rags.

In 1798, the armies of the French Revolution tried to transform Rome from the capital of the Papal States to a Jacobin Republic. For the next two decades, Rome was the subject of power struggles between the forces of the Empire and the Papacy, while Romans endured the unsuccessful efforts of Napoleon’s best and brightest to pull the ancient city into the modern world. Against this historical backdrop, Nicassio weaves together an absorbing social, cultural, and political history of Rome and its people. Based on primary sources and incorporating two centuries of Italian, French, and international research, her work reveals what life was like for Romans in the age of Napoleon. “A remarkable book that wonderfully vivifies an understudied era in the history of Rome. . . . This book will engage anyone interested in early modern cities, the relationship between religion and daily life, and the history of the city of Rome.”—Journal of Modern History “An engaging account of Tosca’s Rome. . . . Nicassio provides a fluent introduction to her subject.”—History Today “Meticulously researched, drawing on a host of original manuscripts, memoirs, personal letters, and secondary sources, enabling [Nicassio] to bring her story to life.”—History

Dante Alighieri’s Divine Comedy has, despite its enormous popularity and importance, often stymied readers with its multitudinous characters, references, and themes. But until the publication in 2007 of Guy Raffa’s guide to the Inferno, students lacked a suitable resource to help them navigate Dante’s underworld. With this new guide to the entire Divine Comedy, Raffa provides readers—experts in the Middle Ages and Renaissance, Dante neophytes, and everyone in between—with a map of the entire poem, from the lowest circle of Hell to the highest sphere of Paradise. Based on Raffa’s original research and his many years of teaching the poem to undergraduates, The CompleteDanteworlds charts a simultaneously geographical and textual journey, canto by canto, region by region, adhering closely to the path taken by Dante himself through Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise. This invaluable reference also features study questions, illustrations of the realms, and regional summaries. Interpreting Dante’s poem and his sources, Raffa fashions detailed entries on each character encountered as well as on many significant historical, religious, and cultural allusions.

Cosima written by Grazia Deledda and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1988 with Fiction categories.
"Cosima" tells the story of an aspiring writer growing up in Nuoro, Sardinia during the last decades of the nineteenth century when formal education for women was rare and literary careers unheard-of. Based on Deledda's own life, the work describes a young woman's struggle against the dismay and disapproval of her family and friends at her creative ambitions. Yet it also reads like a charming fable with details of family life, rural traditions and wild bandits, and it is as much a novel of memory as of character or action. Deledda's characters are poor country folk driven by some predetermined force. Their loves are tragic, their lives as hard and as rigidly controlled as nature itself in the hills of Sardinia. Deledda creates memorable figures who play out their lives against this backdrop of mountains and bare plains, sheepfolds and vineyards. Shimmering in the distance is the sea and escape - for a few - to the Continent or America. In 1926 Grazia Deledda became the second woman and the second Italian to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature. She wrote thirty-three novels, including "Reeds in the Wind," and many books of short stories, almost all set on Sardinia. Her work has become well known to English-speaking readers through Martha King's translations for Italica Press.

Leopardi, poet and philosopher, explores in humorous but savage dialogue the power of fashion and its strange irrationality. He also imagines conversations between Hercules and Atlas, Nature and an Icelander, and the Earth and the Moon, as well as producing a simple essay praising the humble bird. GREAT IDEAS. Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves - and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives - and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and helped make us who we are.
