Translating Myself and Others
Luminous essays on translation and self-translation by the award-winning writer and literary translator Translating Myself and Others is a collection of candid and disarmingly personal essays by Pulitzer Prize–winning author Jhumpa Lahiri, who reflects on her emerging identity as a translator as well as a writer in two languages. With subtlety and emotional immediacy, Lahiri draws on Ovid’s myth of Echo and Narcissus to explore the distinction between writing and translating, and provides a close reading of passages from Aristotle’s Poetics to talk more broadly about writing, desire, and freedom. She traces the theme of translation in Antonio Gramsci’s Prison Notebooks and takes up t...
Creative Interventions
Who are “intellectuals”? What do they think their role and function in contemporary society is? Are they on the endangered-species list? Is equating conservatism with conservation becoming their dominant survival strategy? This book is a collection of essays that examines some of the changes in the activities, role, function and self-perception of Italian intellectuals since World War II (two major divides are considered to be the crisis of 1956–7 and the fall of the Berlin Wall). The first section examines some of the most influential figures in the early decades, the second the activities of contemporary intellectuals, a third gives voice to some contemporary writers, a fourth contains some comparative essays about the role of intellectuals in influential contemporary Western cultures and a final section is devoted to some cross-disciplinary forays and reflections on the relevance and possible future directions of these inquiries.

Per i ladri e le puttane sono Gesù bambino
«Mi manca tutto di te. Anche i momenti di eroica fragilità che contribuivano a renderti sempre più grande. Ti volevo e ti voglio bene.» Adriano Celentano «Era un uomo profondamente vivace. Ecco: uno che viveva senza risparmi e senza paura di esaurire l’entusiasmo. Un vero testimone della musica, uno che per la musica ha vissuto.» Francesco Guccini Lucio Dalla è uno dei più grandi musicisti italiani di sempre. Riservatissimo nella sua vita privata, ha invece sempre dato tutto di sé nei concerti, nei dischi e nelle apparizioni pubbliche. Finalmente un libro racconta la sua vita e le sue opere, grazie anche alle testimonianze di chi lo ha conosciuto. Una vita intensa e sempre vissuta controcorrente che lo ha portato a diventare un classico della nostra cultura nazionale «È da quello squarcio di cielo e di cuore che vi ascolterò anche quando nessuno mi vorrà ascoltare, che vi cercherò ancora anche se non mi verrete più a cercare. È da lì in alto, fino a quando ci sarà una finestra, che il mio cuore continuerà a cantare.» Lucio Dalla
Bruce Springsteen. 100 Seiten
»Springsteen ist eine poetische und musikalische Einladung ins richtige Leben, mit allen Höhen und Tiefen, mit allen Tränen und Lachfalten.« Bruce Springsteen ist der große Chronist und Erzähler der US-amerikanischen Gesellschaft. Mit einfachen, nachvollziehbaren Bildern zeigt er sich als Dolmetscher hungriger Herzen und Sprachrohr der Arbeiterklasse. Marcus S. Kleiner widmet sich den zentralen Themen Springsteens: dem amerikanischen Traum, der sozialen Ungerechtigkeit oder dem Trauma 9/11. Im Gespräch mit Wolfgang Niedecken und Thees Uhlmann findet er heraus, welche Rolle Springsteen für seine Musikerkollegen spielt. Und er zeigt die Vielseitigkeit eines Künstlers, der so viel mehr ist als ein Rockmusiker.
