With urgency, and without apology, JoAnne McFarland's multimedia collection Pullman underscores the relationships between the events of our American past and of our present. JoAnne McFarland's Pullman examines themes of labor and love, using as its backdrop the history of the treatment of the Pullman car porters of the late 19th century. The poems and art pieces in this collection both reflect on and interact with cultural and historical sources.

Kahlil Gibran's Little Book of Secrets is a collection of Gibran's words on life's big questions and the mysteries of the spiritual path. It is an exploration of the riddles and conundrums that are part of the fabric of existence, and it is an attempt to penetrate and explain the mysteries of life.

L'œuvre principale de François Villon. Digressions sur l'injustice, la fuite du temps, la mort, la sagesse... Villon n'a pas uniquement renouvelé la forme de la poésie de son époque mais aussi la façon de traiter les thèmes poétiques hérités de la culture médiévale qu'il anime de sa propre personnalité. Il prend ainsi à contre-pied l'idéal courtois, renverse les valeurs admises en célébrant les gueux promis au gibet. Rencontre entre deux rockers passionnés de la langue française, jongleurs de mots et conteurs d'histoires populaires.

""Parigi XXI" parla di amori e abbandoni, di partenze e ritorni, di ferite e cicatrici, di vuoti e riempimenti. Parla di destini, di sogni, di speranze comuni. Parla di Giacomo, che sono io ma anche un po' voi. E di Francesca. Che c'è sempre una Francesca nella vita di qualcuno. Parigi XXI è stato un viaggio, un'escursione, un "safari mentale". La mia ancora di salvezza. Il miglior modo che potessi trovare per esorcizzare alcuni lividi." Iacopo Melio.

"La Guerre de Troie n'aura pas lieu" a été créée en 1935, par les soins de Louis Jouvet. Après Siegfried, elle s'affirma - son succès en a témoigné - comme une des rares œuvres maîtresses du répertoire français contemporain à aborder un des grands problèmes politiques du temps. Jean Vilar l'a montée en 1962, pour le Festival d'Avignon, et l'a reprise au Théâtre National Populaire (TNP) en 1963.

Écrit en 1873, ce long poème en prose est la confession fiévreuse d’un jeune poète en rupture. Dans une langue fulgurante, Rimbaud traverse sa saison comme un enfer intérieur: révolte et lucidité, chute et sursaut, désespoir et désir de salut. Cette voix, tour à tour hautaine, blessée et visionnaire, scrute le mal et la poésie elle‑même, en éprouve les limites et brûle ses illusions. Traversée désespérée et lumineuse, cette œuvre garde la modernité d’un cri: un pacte avec la nuit, une tentative de salut par les mots—jusqu’au silence.

E se le parole, se i versi non fossero altro che la misura di ogni nostra insufficienza? Se non fossero altro che l’indicazione del peso specifico di ogni nostra incertezza e di ogni nostra coscienza d’incompiuto? Come in un mulinello che prende a vorticare nell’acqua, prima piano, a larghi giri, e poi sempre più velocemente, così le poesie che Renato Minore raccoglie in questa sua autoantologia raccontano ogni vita a partire da una vita: perché se ogni cosa è in prestito, lo è anche il dolore e il nome di ciascuno.

There have been many translators of Chinese literature and poetry over time, but Arthur Waley stands out as one of the best known and most loved. This is perhaps because he had an attribute that most others lacked, which is his poetic abilities. Waley was as much a poet himself as a translator, and while his scholarly erudition was matched by a few others at his time, none ever managed to bring out the true character of Chinese poetry quite so well.

Un compendio di emozioni che sgorgano ora inattese e dirompenti dall'intimo più profondo dell'autrice per donarsi al lettore come sottili pennellate di una vita vissuta pienamente nel segno dell'amore più intenso.

Molière wrote some of the most durable and penetrating comedies of all time. The Imaginary Cuckold and The School for Husbands are two of his grand farces of marriage and misunderstanding, one set in Paris and the other in the provinces. In The School for Husbands, a tyrannical husband-to-be seeks to isolate his ward, while unwittingly carrying her messages of devotion to her lover. In The Imaginary Cuckold, an enraged husband imagines his wife is unfaithful, but is reluctant to defend his honor.

In the 1970s, Frank Lucas was the king of the Harlem drug trade, bringing in over a million dollars a day. He lived a glamorous life, hobnobbing with athletes, musicians, and politicians, but Lucas was a ruthless gangster. He was notorious for using the coffins of dead GIs to smuggle heroin into the United States, and, before being sentenced to 70 years in prison, he played a major role in the near death of New York City.

The status of John Donne (1572-1631) as one of the greatest poets in the English language is firmly established. He strongly influenced writers of the 17th century, and modern poets such as T.S. Eliot have praised and imitated Donne's work. His poetry is characterized by dramatic, witty, and bold language; by strikingly original imagery; and rhythms based on everyday speech.

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.
