Titoli in Poesia

The Forerunner: His Parables and Poems by Kahlil Gibran is a lyrical and symbolic work that blends poetic prose with short parables to explore the inner life of the human spirit. Written in Gibran’s distinctive, prophetic voice, the book reflects on themes of individuality, freedom, love, suffering, faith, and the tension between the self and society.

William Butler Yeats, the first Irishman to win the Nobel Prize for Literature, is not only one of the greatest poets of the 20th century but one of the most widely read. The landscape, myths, legends, and folklore of his homeland lie at the heart of his poetic imagination, and the unique musicality of Ireland adds to the richness of his verse. But the themes of his poetry are universal and timeless: the conflict between life and death, love and hate, and the meaning of man’s existence in an imperfect world.

In this debut poetry collection, Marina's talent for powerful, evocative song lyrics finds a new outlet as her words weave stories of resilience and self-discovery. Each poem resonates with the same creative melodies and emotional depth that have made her an artistic sensation. Hailed by The New York Times for 'redefining songs about coming of age, and the aftermath, with bluntness and crafty intelligence,' Marina delves even further into teenage trauma, youth, and the highs and lows of relationships in these profound, autobiographical poems.

Chef-d’œuvre épique du XVIIe siècle, Le Paradis Perdu de John Milton déploie, en vers amples et solennels, une méditation vertigineuse sur la tentation, le péché et la rédemption. À l’échelle du cosmos comme au cœur de l’âme, la parole poétique scrute la grandeur et la fragilité humaines, entre épreuve, faute et espérance.

Ci sono poeti che non saranno mai letti. I motivi che possono determinare questa mancata opportunità sono molteplici. Ad esempio, un poeta può decidere di non divulgare i propri scritti, facendo in tal modo della poesia un'esperienza privata e discreta. Un altro, invece, può stabilire di non comporre poesie, rimanendo sì interprete (nella vita quotidiana) della propria indole poetica. Un altro, ancora, pur nutrendo il desiderio di pubblicare le proprie opere, può trovare soltanto l'indifferenza da parte dell'editoria.

Lorenzo Stecchetti è uno degli svariati eteronimi di Olindo Guerrini, che finge sia un cugino morto di tisi. Il libro di poesie ebbe ben 32 ristampe ed edizioni durante la vita dell'Autore, superando di gran lunga la fama di poeti coevi come il Carducci. Contiene il notissimo "Canto dell'odio". Dotato di un gusto per l'eccesso e per il macabro, risente dell'influenza della poesia di Baudelaire e della narrativa di Hoffmann, oltre che dell'inevitabile contributo dell'esperienza della scapigliatura.

A collection of poems written by the revered American poet, essayist, and journalist. Included are selections from this most famous work, Leaves of Grass, as well as Drum Taps and Songs of Parting.

Está en la sala familiar, sombría, y entre nosotros, el querido hermano que en el sueño infantil de un claro día vimos partir hacia un país lejano. Hoy tiene ya las sienes plateadas, un gris mechón sobre la angosta frente; y la fría inquietud de sus miradas revela un alma casi toda ausente.

Dick Davis—“our pre-eminent translator from the Persian” (The Washington Post)—has revised and expanded his acclaimed translation of Ferdowsi’s masterpiece, adding more than 100 pages of newly translated text. Davis’s elegant combination of prose and verse allows the poetry of the Shahnameh to sing its own tales directly, interspersed sparingly with clearly marked explanations to ease along modern audiences.

«Pude seguir adelante, "dejar todo en manos de Dios", como dicen. Y cuando lo hice, las ventanas y las puertas se abrieron de par en par. La luz entró a raudales, una luz que ahuyentó al miedo y eliminó la ira. Lo solté, en verdad lo solté, y fui libre […] la elección fue mía. Podía...

"Quando scrivo poesia mi sento simile alle stelle che vagabondano nel cielo con la loro luce intermittente. La mia poesia vive di segni e di simboli, con la mia parola poetica annuncio eventi. Abito l’immaginazione, vi soggiorno, amo sedurre con le parole e i simboli per rendere sopportabile il mondo che incatena le nostre vite. Mi inabisso fino ai fondali del mondo e più in là nell’infinito, per scrutarne il mistero. Io scrivo poesia per salvarmi dalla mia dannazione, dal mio destino."

Hojoki is an introspective poem written in the 13th century by the enigmatic Japanese hermit Kamo no Chomei, who as a young man served in the capital as official court poet, but later in life withdrew from society.

Langston Hughes is a widely celebrated African American writer and important leader of the 1920s Harlem Renaissance. Deeply inspired by the great poet Walt Whitman, Hughes’ own writings gave voice to the Black community in the American literary canon. His assertion that “I, too, sing America” echoes through history and continues to be a battle cry in the fight for fair representation and equality. The Weary Blues, published in 1926, was Hughes’ first collection of poetry. He was only twenty-four years old at the time, but his insights carry wisdom beyond his years.

POWIEŚĆ O DOJRZEWANIU, BEZRADNOŚCI I ROZPACZY. Jakie tajemnice skrywa stary domek letniskowy? Mieszka w nim Sara, młoda, samotna kobieta. Od siedmiu lat niemal codziennie wkłada znoszone buty i przemierza wielokilometrową trasę w poszukiwaniu grzybów. W ten sposób zarabia na życie i... utrzymuje więź z przeszłością. Wiadomość o śmierci matki przywołuje wspomnienia i wnosi do życia Sary szereg zmian. Bolesne sekrety skrywane od lat powracają i nie pozwalają już o sobie zapomnieć. Istnieje tylko jeden sposób, by wreszcie od nich uciec.

 Radiant and tender, My Baby First Birthday is a collection that examines innocence, asking us who gets to be loved and who has to deplete themselves just to survive. It's about existence and nonexistence, about being born - without consent. Jenny Zhang writes about accepting pain, about the way we fetishize womanhood and motherhood, and reduce women to their violations, traumas, and body parts.

Poetry was Louis de Bernières’ first literary love. Here the much-loved author returns us to the vivid Mediterranean landscape of his fiction. Introduced to Greek poetry while in Corfu in 1983, de Bernières’ own poems about the distant past, the erotic and the philosophical owe much to the influence of the great Alexandrian poet.

Guido, i’ vorrei che tu e Lapo ed io fossimo presi per incantamento e messi in un vasel, ch’ad ogni vento per mare andasse al voler vostro e mio; sì che fortuna od altro tempo rio non ci potesse dare impedimento.

Arthur Rimbaud a écrit Le Bateau ivre en 1871 à l'âge de 16 ans. Le poème raconte la dérive d'un bateau sans maître chahuté par les flots. Le navire est en fait le reflet des tourments de l'âme du poète. On peut y déceler de nombreuses références à Charles Baudelaire, Jules Verne, Edgar Allan Poe, Leconte de Lisle, Théophile Gautier.
