Winner of the 2018 Italian Prose in Translation Award A metaphysical detective story about love and existence from the Italian master, Antonio Tabucchi. When Tadeus sets out to find Isabel, his former love, he soon finds himself on a metaphysical journey across the world, one that calls into question the meaning of time and existence and the power of words. Isabel disappeared many years ago. Tadeus Slowacki, a Polish writer, her former friend and lover, has come back to Lisbon to learn of her whereabouts. Rumors abound: Isabel died in prison under Salazar's regime, or perhaps wasn't arrested at all. As Tadeus interviews one old acquaintance of hers after the next, a chameleon-like portrait of a young, ideological woman emerges, ultimately bringing Tadeus on a metaphysical journey across the continent. Constructed in the form of a mandala, For Isabel is the spiraling search for an enigma, an investigation into time and existence, the power of words, and the limits of the senses. In this posthumous work Tabucchi creates an ingenious narration, tracing circles around a lost woman and the ultimate inaccessible truth.

First comprehensive survey of Isabel de Villena (Sor Isabel), the fifteenth-century Spanish nun and writer. Isabel de Villena (1430-1490) is one of the most fascinating women of the Spanish middle ages. Related to the royal family, she became abbess of the Poor Clare convent, the Santa Trinitat, in Valencia in 1462, a position she heldfor almost thirty years until her death. Her treatise on the religious life, Vita Christi, was the first book by a woman to be printed in the kingdom of Aragon. This is the first full-length survey in English of Isabel's life and literary works. The author pays particular attention to the way in which devotion to the Virgin Mary is manifested and described through material culture, on her rich fabrics, brocades, silks, shoes, and crown. The book thus highlights not only Isabel's distinctive contribution to the genre of the Vita Christi, but also reflects the status of Valencia as a centre for trade and producer of silks and velvets at the time, as well as its flourishing shoe-making industry. Lesley K. Twomey is Principal Lecturer, Hispanic Studies, Northumbria University.

Come definire una storia come questa? A prima vista potrebbe sembrare un romanzo fantastico, ma forse sfugge a ogni possibile definizione. Tabucchi l’ha sottotitolato “Un mandala”, ma a ben vedere, con criteri tutti occidentali, si tratta in fin dei conti di un’inchiesta, una ricerca che sembra condotta da un Philip Marlowe metafisico. Ma con la metafisica, in questa ricerca spasmodica e pellegrina, si sposa un concetto tutto terrestre della vita: sapori, odori, luoghi, città, fotografie che sono legati al nostro immaginario, ai nostri sogni, ma anche alla nostra quotidiana esperienza. E allora? Nella sua nota Tabucchi suggerisce di pensare a un monaco vestito di rosso, a Hölderlin e a una canzone napoletana. Potranno forse sembrare degli ingredienti incongrui. Ma forse è meglio non cercare la congruenza in uno dei più stravaganti, visionari e insieme struggenti romanzi che la letteratura italiana ci abbia mai regalato.

The queenship of the first European Renaissance queen regnant never ceases to fascinate. As fascists to feminists fight over Isabel’s legacy, we ask which recyclings of her image are legitimate or appropriate. Or has this figure taken on a life of her own?

Nel 1524 Eleonora Gonzaga invia da Urbino a Mantova, in dono alla madre Isabella d'Este, una "credenza" di ceramiche appositamente create dal più grande ceramista dell'epoca, Nicola d'Urbino. I ventiquattro pezzi della credenza originale, autentici capolavori oggi sparsi nei musei e nelle collezioni private di tutto il mondo, sono stati accuratamente riprodotti da Ester Mantovani, rendendo possibile ammirarli a distanza di secoli. Al catalogo della mostra sono premessi un ricco saggio sulle "Ceramiche a Mantova al tempo dei Gonzaga" (M. Palvarini Gobio Casali), un profilo di Isabella (D. Ferrari), la ricostruzione delle vicende della credenza (V. Taylor) e un saggio sulla creazione delle interpetazioni contemporanee (E. Mantovani). Il volume è realizzato interamente a colori e comprende la traduzione integrale in lingua inglese dei testi.
