Parue en 1880, Boule de Suif a été depuis adaptée de nombreuses fois au théâtre, au cinéma, à la télévision. La mise en scène sonore de l’œuvre met en lumière toute l’ambiance si particulière du contexte historique de la guerre de 1870, et l’interprétation du narrateur et des dialogues amplifie la compréhension de l’extraordinaire analyse de l’auteur face à une société étriquée, dont l’hypocrisie est mise au grand jour. Le personnage principal, Boule de Suif, prostituée au grand cœur, n’en est que plus bouleversant.

We are all classicists - we come into touch with the classics on a daily basis: in our culture, politics, medicine, architecture, language, and literature.

Alexander Pope (1688-1744) was the most notable literary figure of his time, just as John Dryden (1631-1700) had been of the preceding age. He was born in London, the son of a prosperous linen merchant, and to his dying day, he remained the poet of the town rather than of the country.

Nell'Italia borghese di fine Ottocento, dove disciplina e decoro sembrano dettare ogni gesto quotidiano, si fa spazio una figura femminile sorprendente: energica, indipendente, fuori dagli schemi. Quando la ginnastica diventa passione e l'amore una sfida più complicata degli esercizi alla sbarra, il quotidiano si trasforma in teatro di irresistibili equivoci.

В книгу вошли басни Эзопа – легендарного древнегреческого раба – в переводах Льва Николаевича Толстого. Эзоп прославился тем, что слагал короткие истории про животных, в которых обличал человеческие пороки. Причём делал это так мастерски, что в народе с лёгкостью узнавали прототип героя. Басни Эзопа облетели весь мир и были переведены на разные языки, а строки из них стали крылатыми. Л.Н. Толстой сделал свой перевод эзоповских историй – максимально приближенный к оригиналу, но понятный деревенским детям, которых обучал писатель.

We live in an era rife with cultural conflict. The 21st century is by no means free of wars, terrorism, riots, famine, nor epidemics. We may attempt to solve the challenges of our times by uniting the humanistic disciplines of philosophy, science, and technology. Our modern reality requires a fundamental understanding of the problems beleaguering our existence. Science and literature are key tools for gaining this insight. The wisdom accumulated throughout the centuries by scientists, philosophers, and writers is a solid foundation on which modern man can build the future.

Edward John Moreton Drax Plunkett was born into a very unusual situation in 1878. He was the eldest scion of a family that had lived in the oldest castle in Ireland since its construction in 1180 CE, and became the 18th Baron Dunsany in 1899 at the age of 21, when his father passed away. He was a soldier, lord, military trainer, propaganda writer, activist, and invented Dunsany’s Chess, in which one player has four ranks of pawns and no other pieces.
