A Ensenada de Barragán, fra Buenos Aires e La Plata, c’era, sino agli anni Cinquanta, un cimitero di barche e di polene.

Dolce e chiara è la notte e senza vento, e queta sovra i tetti e in mezzo agli orti posa la luna, e di lontan rivela serena ogni montagna. O donna mia, già tace ogni sentiero, e pei balconi rara traluce la notturna lampa: Tu dormi, che t’accolse agevol sonno nelle tue chete stanze; e non ti morde cura nessuna; e già non sai nè pensi quanta piaga m’apristi in mezzo al petto. Tu dormi: io questo ciel, che sì benigno appare in vista, a salutar m’affaccio, e l’antica natura onnipossente, che mi fece all’affanno.

Three decades ago, renowned literary expert Robert Alter radically expanded the horizons of biblical scholarship by recasting the Bible as not only a human creation but a work of literary art deserving studied criticism. In The Art of Biblical Poetry, his companion to the seminal The Art of Biblical Narrative, Alter takes his analysis beyond narrative craft to investigate the use of Hebrew poetry in the Bible.

È un canzoniere d’amore Donna cometa di Ernesto Franco, uomo e poeta costretto a fare i conti con il congedo. Congedo da un preciso referente lirico – il «tu» di queste poesie, o la donna, che come la cometa passa, illumina e finisce – ma non per questo congedo dal tempo e dal viaggio di vita e poesia, se è vero che nei 47 frammenti del libro l’io lirico segue, quasi imita per mimesi, la forma breve o brevissima del nostro «immenso camminare».

In questa raccolta di liriche, scritta nel 1930, l'autrice è sempre più vicina al ritrovamento della fede, e la malinconia di cui si tingono i ricordi viene sempre più illuminata dalla coscienza dello spirito. Di fronte alla propria morte, Ada Negri guarda la vita oltre la vita come un continuo, e il trapasso diventa una dolce trasformazione, nella terra che l'ha vista nascere e che continua ad anelare al cielo, con ogni stelo, frutto, fiore.

Rumi's Spiritual Verses is the greatest mystical poem in Islamic culture - and of all time. Rumi examines our human separation from reality, love, and truth. He shows how love - neither erotic nor sentimental but divine, by which the universe is held together - enlightens ignorance and dissolves suffering. The first book of the Masnavi is the key to the whole work: It takes off from simple, amusing tales into realms unimaginable, but wholly familiar to the human heart.

Professor Esolen places a special emphasis on the drama of the poem, leading you through each canto in succession.

In the beginning, the world is spoken into existence with one word: “Earth.” There are no inhabitants, and no sun—only the broad sky, silent sea, and sovereign Framer and Shaper. Then come the twin heroes Hunahpu and Xbalanque. Wielding blowguns, they begin a journey to hell and back, ready to confront the folly of false deities as well as death itself, in service to the world and to humanity. This is the story of the Mayan Popol Vuh, “the book of the woven mat,” one of the only epics indigenous to the Americas.

Toda la obra de Federico García Lorca está rodeada de misterio, toda vez que las balas asesinas de Franco le arrebataron la vida. Y aún más aquellas partes de su obra que podemos considerar inacabadas. Es el caso de Sonetos del amor oscuro, el único texto conocido en el que el poeta habla abiertamente del amor entre dos hombres. Once composiciones de una belleza inigualable, escritas durante el último año de su vida, que no sabemos si iban a formar parte de un determinado conjunto o de qué forma Lorca las había concebido.

Considered by Rumi to be "the master" of Sufi mystic poetry, Attar is best known for this epic poem, a magnificent allegorical tale about the soul's search for meaning. He recounts the perilous journey of the world's birds to the faraway peaks of Mount Qaf in search of the mysterious Simorgh, their king. Attar's beguiling anecdotes and humor intermingle the sublime with the mundane, the spiritual with the worldly, while his poem models the soul's escape from the mind's rational embrace.
