هذا أوّل كتابٍ أُفرد للمرأة في حياة "طه حسين" وأدبه. فبرغم ما عرف عنه من أنّه كان نصير المرأة والدّاعي قولاً وفعلاً إلى تعليمها، إلّا أنّنا لا نجد سوى بحثٍ يتيمٍ هنا أو مقالٍ صحفيٍّ هناك عن علاقة "طه حسين بالمرأة". تتبّعتُ حضور المرأة في حياته سواءً أكان حضوراً طاغياً مثل زوجته سوزان، أم حضوراً خافتاً مثل أمّه وابنته، وعرضتُ لنساءٍ كان لهنّ تماسٌّ معه مثل حبّه الأول وتلميذته وحتى اللواتي اختلفن معه. واستقصيتُ النماذجَ النسوية التي وردت في أدبه من نساءٍ خاضعاتٍ ضعيفاتٍ إلى نساءٍ متعلّماتٍ متحدّيات، ومن مشرقيّاتٍ مستسلماتٍ لأقدارهنّ إلى أوروبيّاتٍ متحرّرات متحضّرات، في صوَرٍ متعدّدة الجوانب للمرأة عند "طه حسين"، عساها تعطي فكرةً لا أزعمها شاملةً، ولكنها كافيةٌ لتوضيح دور المرأة في حياته وانعكاس هذا الدّور على أدبه.

Mary Wollstonecraft is widely hailed as the mother of modern feminism. The book that made her famous, A Vindication of the Rights of Woman, is a work of worldwide renown. Yet the range of her achievements as a thinker and writer reach far beyond this text. She was a multi-faceted author, and although the condition of women was a constant preoccupation throughout her life, she wrote on a wide variety of topics and in a range of literary forms, some of which she created herself.

Anthony Trollope is among the best-loved novelists in the English language. This Very Short Introduction will place Trollope's work in the context of his life and times, drawing on recent scholarship to illuminate his central interests and literary strategies. The major series of novels (the six novels located in the fictional Barsetshire, and the six Palliser novels) are explored alongside the novels set in Ireland, his travel writing, and his less well-known fiction.

Wie kann man über Thomas Mann heute schreiben? So: geistreich, komisch und mit lässigem Ernst. SAA STANII. Los Angeles in den 1940er-Jahren: Die Westküste ist ein Traumort, die Exilanten aus Europa trauen ihren Sinnen nicht, das Farbenspiel, das Licht, das Meer. Hier sind sie alle gestrandet, die im Deutschland der Nationalsozialisten keine Heimat mehr haben oder haben wollen: Arnold Schönberg, Vicki Baum, Theodor W. Adorno, Bertolt Brecht, Lion Feuchtwanger, Helene Weigel, Max Horkheimer, Hanns Eisler, Franz und Alma Werfel und allen voran: Thomas Mann.

Da un lato i riflettori della televisione e il vortice della vita pubblica. Dall'altro l'abbraccio severo della montagna, la fatica del sentiero, la magia della vetta. In mezzo, Massimiliano Ossini: un ragazzo innamorato dei campi che diventa uomo alla ricerca di senso. Tra carriera, famiglia e paternità, Ossini scopre che ogni salita verso le vette è un dialogo intimo con se stesso. Nel silenzio della natura trova un maestro che gli insegna ad amarsi, a capirsi, a leggere dentro di sé.

Paolo Di Paolo ripercorre la vita di Piero Gobbetti in modo personalissimo e con la lente di una prossimità che oggi si avverte con più forza: quella di Piero non è affatto una parentesi chiusa nella storia, nella pagina di una vecchia rivista. Al contrario, la voce del ragazzo con gli occhiali a stanghetta e i capelli arruffati risuona di nuovo nel deserto del nostro cinismo. Ricaricando di senso una grande lezione morale, invitandoci a «restare politici nel tramonto della politica», a non arrenderci mai al pessimismo e alla rassegnazione.

For more than half a century, the names J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis were synonymous with epic fantasy. Thanks to his classics, The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Tolkien both revived interest in fantasy literature and set the standard for the genre, and today he is widely acknowledged as the “father” of modern fantasy.

Renowned as a novelist, journalist, and humorist, Mark Twain is not only one of the most widely read and admired American writers, he is also among the most quoted. Wit and repartee permeate his work — from the short, light pieces to his great novel Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and even later, in dark meditations on the human condition where his humor takes on a cynical, satirical twist.

Dalle prime memorie d'infanzia alla morte della madre, Diario d'inverno è il catalogo della vita di un uomo raccontato attraverso il suo corpo. In nessun altro libro Paul Auster era stato tanto spietato e dolce. Forse perché si tratta di arrivare alla verità, la più nascosta, quella più dolorosa, ma anche quella più preziosa.

A quiet, grounding book in turbulent, uncertain times, Body: My Life in Parts, shows the listener how the treasure chest that is her own body can be a source of meaningful discovery, and recovery, of meaning. This book celebrates the body as witness and recordkeeper; a most dependable collaborator in “keeping the score” and in living a more examined life.

Before he built his cabin at Walden Pond, Henry David Thoreau set out on a quiet journey with his brother—two small boats, two rivers, and seven days of reflection. "A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers" is more than a book—it is an invitation to pause, breathe, and find peace in the flow of life.

With Virginia Woolf as a guide, the stories of eight radical 20th century women--wanderers, rebels, explorers, mentors--who made a life for themselves in spite of everything.

Gatsby: Death of an Irishman is a fresh and compelling insight into the life of F. Scott Fitzgerald and the genesis of his most iconic character. Underpinning Fitzgerald’s brilliant but turbulent life was his complex, evolving and surprising relationship with his Irish identity. From childhood shame at being ‘common’ to a patriotic immersion in Irish literature and revolutionary politics at Princeton.

Después de recibir el Premio Nobel de Literatura en 1957, Albert Camus escribió una carta a su antiguo profesor en Argel, Louis Germain, sin el cual «no habría sucedido nada de todo esto» y le expresó todo su reconocimiento. El conjunto de la correspondencia entre estos dos hombres, nunca antes publicada integra, y un fragmento de El primer hombre donde apareció el personaje del profesor M. Bernard se encuentran compilados en Cartas a mi maestro. Una edición en forma de homenaje a ese magnífico vínculo de gratitud y ternura que los unió.

By the early 1890’s Kate's short stories were published nationally. With this widespread audience also came negative reviews, controversy, and cries of immorality as themes such as interracial relationships, the rights of women and other burning issues of the day were written about.

A lume di candela o su un prato fiorito, in cucina o - le più fortunate - in una stanza tutta per sé, le donne hanno sempre letto. E fintanto che i loro occhi si posavano su libri scelti dagli uomini, non hanno mai fatto troppa paura. Così, per secoli, le donne hanno conosciuto solo gli scritti dei padri, gli stessi che fin da bambina anche Dacia Maraini ha divorato, e che hanno nutrito la sua fantasia.

«Grabar, rayar, esculpir, cavar en una piedra, en un papiro, en un papel, pero, en última instancia, escribir: es la única manera de eternizar la expresión.» Esta selección de los dieciséis volúmenes del Diario (1932-1993) de Miguel Torga constituye un testimonio conmovedor de una época en la que el novelista y poeta portugués reflexiona sobre los acontecimientos que marcaron un siglo, su experiencia como médico y sus primeros pasos como escritor: todo aquello que quiso salvar del olvido.

Murdoch vivió en Londres desde que tenía apenas unos meses, pero se definió siempre como irlandesa o anglo-irlandesa. Estudió en pleno auge de la filosofía analítica y quedó deslumbrada por el existencialismo sartreano. Fue tutora en Oxford durante más de catorce años y abandonó su puesto para dedicarse a escribir novelas de gran popularidad.
