Story
Two love stories are set against the backdrop of high society in Tsarist Russia. Anna awakes from a loveless marriage to find herself drawn irresistibly to the dashing cavalry officer, Count Vronsky. Levin struggles with self-esteem, and even flees to the country, before gaining courage to return and offer himself to the beautiful and pure Kitty. Through troubled courtships, reconciliations, marriage and the birth of each one’s first child, Anna and Levin experience joy and despair as they each struggle to find their place in the world and meaning for their lives. (Introduction by MaryAnn)

Story
The Divine Comedy (in Italian, Divina Commedia, or just La commedia or Comedia) is an epic poem written by Dante Alighieri in the first decades of the 14th Century, during his exile from his native Florence. Considered the most important work of Italian literature, the poem has also has enormous historical influence on western literature and culture more generally.

Story
"Metello" è un romanzo storico di formazione che seguendo le vicende di un eroe popolare abbraccia un arco di tempo che va dal 1875 al 1902, il periodo forse più difficile e complesso della storia italiana dopo l'Unità: gli anni delle violente repressioni governative nei confronti degli operai, che organizzandosi per la prima volta in sindacati, assumono progressiva e decisa coscienza dei propri diritti, si identificano in un partito unitario e scoprono una nuova arma: lo sciopero.

Story
"Il Gattopardo" è un romanzo di Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa che narra le trasformazioni avvenute nella vita e nella società in Sicilia durante il Risorgimento, dal momento del trapasso del regime borbonico alla transizione unitaria del Regno d'Italia, seguita alla spedizione dei Mille di Garibaldi. Dopo i rifiuti delle principali case editrici italiane (Mondadori, Einaudi, Longanesi), l'opera fu pubblicata postuma da Feltrinelli nel 1958, un anno dopo la morte dell'autore. Il tema della cucina nel romanzo e ai tempi in cui si svolge l'azione non è stato abbastanza investigato.

In questa breve ma completa lezione-conferenza, realizzata per l'Università della Terza Età di Roseto degli Abruzzi, si ripercorre l'esperienza erotica ma soprattutto culinaria di Dona Flor, protagonista del celeberrimo romanzo di Jorge Amado. Incatenata tra l'amore del primo marito Vadinho, debosciato e sciupafemmine, e quello del secondo, Teodoro, religioso e onesto farmacista, da cui Dona Flor avrà una vita agiata ma del tutto insoddisfacente sul piano sessuale, Dona Flor si improvvisa maestra di cucina.

Una disamina puntuale e dissacrante del libro Cuore di Edmondo De Amicis, icona ottocentesca falsa e ipocrita dei buoni sentimenti, in una lezione-conferenza realizzata e tenuta all'Università della Terza Età di Roseto degli Abruzzi. Da Garrone a Franti, attraverso i racconti mensili, le figure di contorno, i personaggi surreali dell'opera principale dello scrittore, in un susseguirsi di battute, critiche e facezie contro un libro arrogante e prepotente, ingiustamente definito "per ragazzi".

Story
Il "Vangelo secondo Marco" è il secondo dei quattro vangeli canonici del Nuovo Testamento. La maggioranza degli studiosi moderni, però, concorda sul fatto che sia stato il primo ad essere scritto, per poi essere usato come fonte per gli altri due vangeli sinottici (il Vangelo secondo Matteo e il Vangelo secondo Luca), in accordo con la teoria della priorità marciana. Si tratta di un testo la cui versione pervenuta è in lingua greca e di autore anonimo, che l'antica tradizione cristiana attribuisce a Marco evangelista, anche noto come Giovanni Marco, cugino di Barnaba.

Story
En 1880 Argentina exhibía un Estado nacional consolidado, una economía capitalista en expansión, una sociedad dinámica. Los cincuenta años subsiguientes marcaron logros aún más importantes: un crecimiento económico de los mayores del mundo, la vertiginosa diversificación de la sociedad impulsada por la inmigración y expresada en una modesta pero cierta modernización cultural y un sistema político que trabajosamente buscó su estabilidad en la democracia. La inserción en el mundo fue el motor de estos logros, pero también ella, portadora de crisis económicas e ideológicas, le ...

Sus gotas centelleantes han atravesado el granito, la roca calcárea y la arcilla; han sido nieve sobre la cumbre del frío monte, molécula de vapor en la nube, blanca espuma en las erizadas olas.” El autor sigue el arroyo por sus muchos caminos – el desierto, la montaña, la gruta, la sima, etc., ...
