Die tief reichende Freundschaft, in welcher die zwei bekanntesten Dichterfürsten aus deutschsprachigen Landen miteinander verbunden waren, begann laut einigen Quellen alles andere als günstig, da beim ersten Treffen der beiden Goethe Schiller weder erkannte noch diesem irgendwelche Beachtung schenkte. Das änderte sich mit der Zeit, nachdem sich Goethe näher über Schillers Werk informierte und beide in regen Gedankenaustausch traten, besonders in vorliegender Briefwechsel-Reihe.

«Путешествие в Арзрум» Александра Пушкина — редкий для русской литературы опыт подлинных путевых заметок, написанных поэтом, чьё слово само дышит свободой и свежестью дороги.

An octagonal tower on two levels: glass upstairs and stone below, beneath a steep slate roof – a folly, it was said. According to locals, a young woman named Annie who fell ill was confined to the tower by her father for three years and died there, alone. Fascinated by Annie's story, Thea Lenarduzzi attempts to piece the past together in a formidable act of imagination, which, tugging at the strings of the how, why and who of stories, begins to unravel the very idea of storytelling itself.

Si è sparsa, ieri, fulmineamente in città una notizia che ha portato in tutti una vera desolazione: Giovanni Verga, l’illustre letterato, era in condizioni gravissime. Ci siamo subito recati a casa dell’illustre scrittore, dove ci venne riferito dai famigliari che il maestro, dopo la consueta visita al Circolo Unione, rincasò senza che nessuno si accorgesse di un qualsiasi suo malore, nè egli lo accusò. Si ritirò in camera, rinchiudendovisi come il solito.

In sports, not all the long shots who succeed are athletes. In 1984, Tom Hammond, a forty-year-old sportscaster who had primarily worked in Kentucky and the Southeast, got an unlikely opportunity to appear on the NBC Sports telecast of the inaugural Breeders' Cup.

Voltaire n’a pas été l’homme d’un système. Il a été le trouble-fête d’un siècle brillant et faux. Ce qu’il reste de lui n’est pas un modèle à imiter, mais une tension à reprendre : penser sans plaire, contredire sans cesse, et surtout ne jamais devenir ce que l’on dénonce.
