PATRIOT zeigt Nawalnys absolute Überzeugung: Der Wandel ist nicht aufzuhalten. Er wird kommen.

Un pellegrinaggio compiuto da un uomo che, nel corso della sua vita, è stato un cronista coinvolto in prima persona nella realtà che descriveva; un giornalista capace d'individuare per istinto i segni che un determinato avvenimento lascia sul territorio sconfinato della Storia; un narratore con una voce unica, spesso fuori del coro, sempre autentica e piena di comprensione.

Discover the extraordinary diaries of the real Anne Lister. When this volume of Anne Lister's diaries was first published in 1988, it was hailed as a vital piece of lost lesbian history. The editor, Helena Whitbread, had spent years painstakingly researching and transcribing Lister's extensive journals, much of which were written in an elaborate code - what Lister called her 'crypthand', which allowed her to record her life in intimate, and at times, explicit, detail. Until then, Anne Lister's lesbianism had been supressed or hinted at; this was the first time her story had been told.

The crônica, a literary genre peculiar to Brazilian newspapers, allows writers, or even soccer stars, to address a wide readership on any theme they like. Chatty, mystical, intimate, flirtatious, and revelatory, Clarice Lispector’s pieces for the Saturday edition of Rio’s leading paper, the Jornal do Brasil, from 1967 to 1973, take the forms of memories, essays, aphorisms, and serialized stories. Endlessly delightful, her insights make one sit up and think, whether about children or social ills or pets or society women or the business of writing or love.

The Second World War had been under way for a year when Marie and John Williamson welcomed two English brothers to join them and their two children in their small house in north Toronto for the duration of the conflict.

From their early days as tutor and scholar, discussing philosophy over Spartan dinners, to their work together to publish Einstein’s books in Europe, in Maurice Solovine Einstein found both an engaged mind and a loyal friend. While Einstein frequently shared his observations on science, politics, philosophy, and religion in his correspondence with Solovine, he was just as likely to express his feelings about everyday life.

Il Camilleri dell'epistolario è un infervorato studente fuorisede. Vive a Roma. È un borsista dell'Accademia Nazionale d'Arte Drammatica. Ha due insigni maestri, Silvio d'Amico e Orazio Costa. Fa subito amicizia con Vittorio Gassman, giovane attore del teatro di posa. Lui studia regia teatrale. È un moderno Robinson Crusoe, che di continuo deve inventarsi un alloggio sempre provvisorio, le suppellettili necessarie, tutti i gesti della giornata tra il lavaggio della biancheria e la ricerca di un ristorantino alla portata delle sue tasche semivuote. Camilleri è giovane, giovanissimo.

A small blue box opened in 2008 revealed a wartime world of love, longing and frustration. Inside were bundles and bundles of letters written neatly on thin blue airmail paper or headed army notepaper.

Für Rainer Maria Rilke war Weihnachten schon immer das wichtigste Fest des Jahres, das er oft in selbstgewählter Stille und mit dem Schreiben liebevoller Briefe verbrachte. Am 24. Dezember stellte sie sich ein, die "unvergleichliche Erwartung", die für ihn mit Heiligabend verbunden war. Eindringlich und nahbar beschreibt er in seinen Briefen an Familie und Freunde wie Anton Kippenberg, Lou Andreas-Salomé oder Franz Xaver Kappus, was ihm das "liebe alte Fest" bedeutet.
