 Una buona pratica preliminare di qualunque altra è la pratica della meraviglia. Esercitarsi a non sapere e a meravigliarsi. Guardarsi attorno e lasciar andare il concetto di albero, strada, casa, mare e guardare con sguardo che ignora il risaputo. Esercitare la meraviglia cura il cuore malato che ha potuto esercitare solo la paura. Questo è un libro disordinato. E l'autrice ha scelto di lasciarlo cosí. 

Humanitarian, entrepreneur, and content creator Connor Franta first captivated listeners with A Work in Progress, ruminating on his Midwestern roots to his early start as a visionary and online thought-leader.

Now as Franta approaches 30, life is no less confusing, but he finds this journey endlessly fascinating. 

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.

Dotés d'une intelligence pour raisonner, d'une volonté pour décider et d'un cœur pour aimer, notre vie n'aurait aucun sens, aucune orientation précise, si on n'en définissait pas tous les jours, un objectif concret. On naviguerait à vue sur son propre bateau. Étant unique, chacun de nous est appelé à donner à la société une chose qui lui est propre, un cadeau particulier, une contribution concrète que lui seul est capable d’offrir. Cette mission n'est rien d'autre qu'offrir à la société la meilleure version de soi-même.

There are few better ways to discover the identity of a nation or people than by listening to their poetry. From historical events to moral values to the political landscape (and often visions of the actual landscape), poetry, at its best, reveals the soul of a people. And Russia has offered us some of the very best.

With her first full-length poetry collection, Warsan Shire introduces us to a girl who, in the absence of a nurturing guide, makes her own stumbling way toward womanhood.

What is poetry? If music is sound organized in a particular way, poetry is a way of organizing language. It is language made special so that it will be remembered and valued. It does not always work - over the centuries countless thousands of poems have been forgotten. This little history is about some that have not. John Carey tells the stories behind the world’s greatest poems, from the oldest surviving one written nearly four thousand years ago to those being written today. Carey looks at poets whose works shape our views of the world.

Pablo Neruda, ganador del Premio Nobel de Literatura, terminó de escribir Los versos del Capitán en 1952 mientras estaba en el exilio en la isla de Capri, paradisíaco escenario de la exitosa película Il Postino.

These poems have been brought together in order that these spiritual truths and impressions, presented in poetical form, will comfort and edify God's people as they wrestle daily with the world, the flesh, and the devil. To know that others have felt what we have felt, 'Through all the changing scenes of life, In trouble and in joy' to hear the feelings in our hearts echoed back to us, to be reminded of our Lord's love, will comfort the soul and bring encouragement.

Listening to The Satires by Juvenal is to come face to face with the corruption, the debauchery, the waste, the sloth, and the mean-spirited greed of ancient Rome...or is it more like modern times? Indeed, these masterpieces of biting social commentary could easily have been written today about any number of metropolitan areas we are all familiar with.

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.

Crow is read here by the author in its entirety and with narrative links not included in the published text.

Rediscover the greatest love poetry ever written. Shakespeare’s sonnets are some of the nation’s favourite lines of verse, but the Elizabethan language can make it difficult to really understand them. Many guides offer to clarify the meaning, but lose the magic of the words by explaining them away. James Anthony has done something boldly different.
