Al termine del secondo conflitto mondiale e a Liberazione avvenuta anche a Torino, nelle generazioni più giovani di artisti, che non avevano avuto alcun contatto con la politica culturale del fascismo, scaturisce spontaneo l’anelito di rigenerazione del loro linguaggio espressivo. Implicitamente si tenta di riannodarsi all’esperienza figurativa italiana degli anni trascorsi tra le due guerre, provando a far riaffiorare quanto di valido ancora è sopravvissuto alla visione asfittica di un regime isolato su posizioni arretrate.

Set in England during the early 1200s, the scion of a Western Marches noble family relates the many encounters and battles that he faces with the Saxon yeoman who becomes his fast friend. This yeoman, great of cross-bow skill and strategy, often saves the day, and after earning knighthood, becomes instrumental in the making of the Magna Carta. - Summary by Lynette Caulkins

The first memoir by the poet Lord Alfred “Bosie” Douglas was written 14 years after the death of Oscar Wilde and in the aftermath of Douglas's failed prosecution of Arthur Ransome for libel. Ransome, in his "Oscar Wilde, a Critical Study," had quoted from the expurgated portions of Wilde's prison letter to Douglas, "De Profundis", which was highly critical of his former friend and lover. Having failed to convince a jury that he had been libelled, Douglas appealed instead to posterity by writing his memoir. In "Oscar Wilde and Myself" Douglas refutes Wilde's version of the events that led ...

Esta “Semana de Arte Moderna 1922 - Coletânea Centenário” dá uma noção geral do que foi este “acontecimento” artístico, visto através de artigos de jornais da época, palestras e poemas . Tem colunas escritas pelos próprios Mário de Andrade e Menotti Del Picchia, textos azedos de críticos, conferências e poemas que atearam fogo à discussão e que geraram cacarejos, latidos, grunhidos, vaias e aplausos. Lembre-se que em 1922 os artigos de jornal podiam sair na edição do dia seguinte ao evento, ou mesmo dias e até meses depois, sem deixar de ser “novidade”. Os artigos ...
