Celebre per il seminario clandestino nel quale, durante il governo degli ayatollah, insegnava alle sue migliori allieve dell'Università di Teheran i grandi autori di lingua inglese, Azar Nafisi, oggi cittadina americana, ci parla del valore inestimabile della letteratura «in una società che sembra concedere tutte le libertà»: anche qui, infatti, ha bisogno di essere difesa, diffusa e studiata strenuamente, quale vero antidoto alla «pigrizia dell’intelletto». L'interpretazione di tre classici – "Huckleberry Finn", "Babbitt" e "Il cuore è un cacciatore solitario" – intessuta, come in Leggere Lolita a Teheran, di frammenti autobiografici, trasmette così una visione della letteratura come rifugio e al tempo stesso come mezzo di eversione pubblica e privata. E come sogno: un sogno condiviso, nella Repubblica dell'immaginazione, da quei lettori che non conoscono frontiere o libri proibiti e che sanno apprezzare le parole di Francis Scott Fitzgerald: «Spingi la sedia sull’orlo del precipizio e ti racconterò una storia»

A New York Times bestseller The author of the beloved #1 New York Times bestseller Reading Lolita in Tehran returns with the next chapter of her life in books—a passionate and deeply moving hymn to America Ten years ago, Azar Nafisi electrified readers with her multimillion-copy bestseller Reading Lolita in Tehran, which told the story of how, against the backdrop of morality squads and executions, she taught The Great Gatsby and other classics of English and American literature to her eager students in Iran. In this electrifying follow-up, she argues that fiction is just as threatened—and just as invaluable—in America today. Blending memoir and polemic with close readings of her favorite novels, she describes the unexpected journey that led her to become an American citizen after first dreaming of America as a young girl in Tehran and coming to know the country through its fiction. She urges us to rediscover the America of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and challenges us to be truer to the words and spirit of the Founding Fathers, who understood that their democratic experiment would never thrive or survive unless they could foster a democratic imagination. Nafisi invites committed readers everywhere to join her as citizens of what she calls the Republic of Imagination, a country with no borders and few restrictions, where the only passport to entry is a free mind and a willingness to dream.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • We all have dreams—things we fantasize about doing and generally never get around to. This is the story of Azar Nafisi’s dream and of the nightmare that made it come true. For two years before she left Iran in 1997, Nafisi gathered seven young women at her house every Thursday morning to read and discuss forbidden works of Western literature. They were all former students whom she had taught at university. Some came from conservative and religious families, others were progressive and secular; several had spent time in jail. They were shy and uncomfortable at first, unaccustomed to being asked to speak their minds, but soon they began to open up and to speak more freely, not only about the novels they were reading but also about themselves, their dreams and disappointments. Their stories intertwined with those they were reading—Pride and Prejudice, Washington Square, Daisy Miller and Lolita—their Lolita, as they imagined her in Tehran. Nafisi’s account flashes back to the early days of the revolution, when she first started teaching at the University of Tehran amid the swirl of protests and demonstrations. In those frenetic days, the students took control of the university, expelled faculty members and purged the curriculum. When a radical Islamist in Nafisi’s class questioned her decision to teach The Great Gatsby, which he saw as an immoral work that preached falsehoods of “the Great Satan,” she decided to let him put Gatsby on trial and stood as the sole witness for the defense. Azar Nafisi’s luminous tale offers a fascinating portrait of the Iran-Iraq war viewed from Tehran and gives us a rare glimpse, from the inside, of women’s lives in revolutionary Iran. It is a work of great passion and poetic beauty, written with a startlingly original voice. Praise for Reading Lolita in Tehran “Anyone who has ever belonged to a book group must read this book. Azar Nafisi takes us into the vivid lives of eight women who must meet in secret to explore the forbidden fiction of the West. It is at once a celebration of the power of the novel and a cry of outrage at the reality in which these women are trapped. The ayatollahs don’ t know it, but Nafisi is one of the heroes of the Islamic Republic.”—Geraldine Brooks, author of Nine Parts of Desire

This volume offers a detailed analysis of selected cases in the reception, translation and artistic reinterpretation of Italo Calvino's Invisible Cities (1972) around the world. The book traces the many different ways in which Calvino's modern classic has been read, translated and adapted in Brazil, France, the Netherlands and Flanders, Mexico, Romania, Scandinavia, the USSR, China, Poland, Japan and Australia. It also offers analyses of the relation between Calvino's book and, respectively, the East and Africa, as well as reflections on the book's inspiration for, and resonance in, dance, architecture and art. The volume thus traces the diversity in the reception and circulation of Invisible Cities in different countries and continents, offering a much wider framework for the discussion of Calvino’s masterpiece than before, and a more detailed picture of its cultural and linguistic ramifications. This book will be of interest to scholars in Comparative Literature, World Literature, Translation Studies, Italian Studies, Romance Languages, European Studies, Dance, Architecture and Media Studies, as well as to scholars specialised in paratext and reception.

Nel ricordo di Azar Nafisi, rientrata in patria proprio nel 1979, l’anno della rivoluzione di Khomeini, la parola che più di frequente ricorreva nelle riflessioni sul nuovo destino che incombeva su di lei era «confisca»: la Repubblica islamica aveva infatti confiscato la storia dell’Iran, la sua cultura e la sua tradizione, e insieme l’identità di ogni individuo. Esiliata in patria, prigioniera di un regime totalitario ostile a tutto ciò che lasciasse spazio all’unicità, lacerata da un sentimento di irrealtà, abbandono e isolamento, Azar Nafisi non poteva che tornare all’amato Nabokov, e condividere con i suoi studenti l’esperienza di un rapporto improntato a un’esaltante reciprocità, giacché via via che si immerge nell’universo di uno scrittore il lettore non fa che arricchirlo di una percezione nuova, di una nuova dimensione. È nato così un libro tanto affascinante e singolare da ricordare alcuni ritratti dotati di coperchio del Rinascimento: il ritratto di Nabokov – frutto di un’analisi delle sue opere che sembra rispondere all’auspicio formulato in «Lezioni di letteratura»: «Leggendo, dovremmo prestare attenzione ai particolari, coccolarli» – cela infatti quello della realtà dell’Iran di allora, ma «andando oltre l’Iran, portando alla luce la mentalità totalitaristica in generale e i suoi bersagli».

Il libro raccoglie gli atti del convegno Infanzia: diritti umani, azione educativa, ricerca organizzato dal Dipartimento di Scienze della Formazione dell’Università degli Studi Roma Tre in collaborazione con Amnesty International Italia nel 30° anniversario della Convenzione delle Nazioni Unite sui diritti dell’infanzia. I contributi proposti valorizzano da più prospettive disciplinari la novità epocale della Convenzione del 1989, approfondendo i principali sviluppi del suo dettato giuridico sul piano della ricerca educativa, sul fronte della promozione umana e dell’integrazione sociale e scolastica dei bambini. Una parte del volume è dedicata ai diritti in azione, in quanto sono state inserite le testimonianze di due grandi organizzazioni (Amnesty International e Amref) per analizzare nei diversi contesti e nel quotidiano le discriminazioni (comprese quelle di genere) che continuano ad essere perpetrate a svantaggio di un progetto di benessere e di felicità per i bambini.
