Story
Il giornalino di Gian Burrasca is a novel sited in Tuscany (Italy). It was written by Vamba (Luigi Bertelli’s pseudonym) in 1907 and published in 1912. The first edition was published on instalments by the newspaper “Il Giornalino della Domenica”, between 1907 and 1908. The protagonist, Giannino Stoppani known as Gian Burrasca, writes the story as a diary. His nickname, given by Giannino’s family because of his restless behaviour, has become proverbial, in Italy, to indicate a terrible boy.

Story
Vera; or, The Nihilists is a play by Oscar Wilde. It is a melodramatic tragedy set in Russia and is loosely based on the story of Vera Zasulich. It was the first play that Wilde wrote. It was produced in the United Kingdom in 1880, and in New York in 1882, but it was not a success and folded in both cities. It is nowadays rarely revived.

Story
Der Roman aus der Epoche des russischen Realismus gibt einen tiefgründigen Einblick in das Leben und die Lebensanschauungen der russischen Aristokratie des 19. Jahrhunderts. Mehr noch begeistert er durch die bis ins kleinste Detail mit großer Menschenkenntnis dargestellten Charaktere, deren Wesen Tolstoi uns weitestgehend durch ihre Art zu sprechen, denken, handeln und ihre "Kreise" auszuwählen näher bringt. Seitensprünge sind in der besseren Gesellschaft durchaus üblich, jedoch nicht solche von der Art, wie Anna Karenina ihn begeht. Auch gelten für Ehebruch bei Frauen andere Maßstäbe...

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. Dante represents the three realms of the afterlife in his three canticles (Inferno--Hell; Purgatorio--Purgatory; Paradiso--Paradise) in a way that reflects and, at the same time, goes beyond Christian tradition of the 14th Century. ...

In 1859, officers of the Hudson's Bay Company travel through the Northwest Territories of Canada on a mission to found a fort at 70 degrees, north of the Arctic Circle. At some point, an earthquake occurs, and from then on, laws of physics seem altered (a total eclipse happens to be only partial; tides are not perceived anymore). They eventually realise that they are not where they are supposed to be. (Wikipedia)

Story
L'essenza dell'Abruzzo è declinata in questa novella nei suoi peculiari aspetti culturali. Lo sguardo attento e compiaciuto di Valerio Di Stefano ci accompagna attraverso le viuzze di un paesino dove la vita scorre ancora lenta, tra i profumi e i sapori di una terra "forte e gentile" come i suoi abitanti. "Lo schiaffatone" si differenzia completamente dalle precedenti narrazioni, mantenendo però il solito marchio di fabbrica: un'ironia inconfondibile e sottile che, in queste pagine, diventa bonaria ed empatica.

Il suo nome era Salvatore Chiappa, tortaio, ma soprattutto livornese. Tutti lo conoscevano come "Gagarin". Da cosa venisse il soprannome con cui la gente di Livorno e, conseguentemente e per traslato, del mondo intero, lo identificava è cosa interessante ma del tutto ignota.

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.
