Story
Until recently, history had relegated Mastani to forgotten pages as a dancing girl -a myth kept alive by lack of evidence about her true place in the Peshwa household. Daughter of Maharaj Chhatrasal of Bundelkhand, Mastani married Peshwa Baji Rao I while he was in power, but she was obscured almost to anonymity by several forces. Her life as a strategist, both on the field and at home, was veiled with intrigue due to the jealousies of women in zenanas and power-hungry relatives in the Peshwai.

Este não é um audiolivro de respostas, de fórmulas e de resumos explicativos da totalidade. As narrativas apresentadas pelo autor, por meio de ensaios, expressam os valores e as ideias de um ser humano em construção, que olha para esse mundão de equívocos e busca aprimoramento, questionando-se também enquanto homem, pai, cidadão, trabalhador.

テアトロ・マサッティー (Teatro Massati) は作家、島田雅彦氏の朗読シアターです。
“口伝えによる語りは、文学の原点” 古代ギリシャ時代は吟遊詩人が全文(1万2000~1万5000行)暗記したテキストを楽器と共に朗読するのを聞いていました。現代では本にすべて記録してあり、いつでも必要なときにそれを開けばいいという安心感があるから、現代人は記憶力が乏しいのかもしれません…
長年朗読を島田雅彦自身が、声で楽しむ朗読コンテンツの魅力について語ります。-

Story
“Non lasciare mai che la verità intralci una buona storia” amava dire Chuck Kinder a Nicola Manuppelli, il giovane italiano che avrebbe voluto scrivere la sua biografia. Le cose che Kinder gli andava raccontando di sé non erano necessariamente vere, ma erano buone storie. I due si erano conosciuti nel 2008. Divenuti presto intimi amici, il celebre scrittore gli aprì le porte del suo mondo: un’allegra brigata di “pessimi uomini” con i loro meravigliosi romanzi e le loro vite disastrate e complesse, rinsaldate però da un fortissimo senso dell’amicizia.

Story
Con "L’immaginazione melodrammatica" Peter Brooks analizza e spiega, a partire dalla sua nascita in seno alla Rivoluzione francese, cosa è stato, cosa è diventato e qual è la natura del melodramma, da genere teatrale a modello compositivo di romanzi, film e altri tipi di narrazioni. L’immaginazione letteraria contemporanea cela le proprie radici nel melodramma, una forma di teatro in prosa con accompagnamento orchestrale che ha conquistato Parigi nei primi decenni del XIX secolo per diffondersi poi con successo in tutta Europa in quelli successivi.

Story
A settantanni dalla sua tragica scomparsa il presidente della fondazione Cesare Pavese ci guida nella Torino di uno dei più grandi scrittori del Novecento. La città, il Mito, la donna, l’America, le Langhe: isole di un viaggio omerico senza ritorno, senza regno, senza Itaca. Le parole con cui Cesare Pavese ha descritto questo viaggio, le sue opere, sono un’occasione di incontro che il lettore ha con sé stesso; specchi in cui “vedere […] riemergere un viso morto”, trovare il Minotauro indifeso al centro del labirinto borgesiano.

Il libro di Susanna Tartaro è un viaggio, attraverso dodici tappe, nel mondo degli haiku e dei suoi girovaghi autori; Santoka su tutti, ma anche Basho e Issa, letti oggi con l'occhio di chi abita una città con tutte le sue piccole e continue trappole alla nostra felicità. Susanna Tartaro - che lavora a Radio3 e da anni cura Fahrenheit, storico programma di "libri e idee" - nel suo blog Dailyhaiku, racconta la propria passione per la poesia giapponese fatta di 5-7-5 sillabe, in cui si racchiudono, miracolosamente, saggezza e dolcezza, sapere e fantasia.

Vite avanzate da e verso qualcosa. Biografie fatte di resti, di persone scivolate ai margini e finite su questi fogli giusto il tempo di fermarsi prima di avanzare di nuovo. Il genere biografico può essere squisitamente narrativo: dipende da come certe storie vengono raccontate, ma anche da come i protagonisti hanno vissuto le loro vite.

Story
Praz è uno stile, oltre che un conoscitore capace di variare dagli oggetti alla storia delle idee. In questa vastità si affronta la vicenda di La carne, la morte e il diavolo nella letteratura romantica e ovviamente Roma. La prosa di Mario Praz (1896-1982) è un modo conoscitivo in sé che va oltre le vastità delle esperienze accumulate nel corso di una vita e consegnate a tanti libri: ha tratti spiccati, perfino abnormi, e dunque tali da farsi identificare a vista.

In ogni casa ce n'è almeno uno, basta solo guardare bene: sono nascosti sugli scaffali della sala, con le coste gialle che si intravedono dietro a tomi seriosi e capolavori della letteratura; spuntano fuori a sorpresa da un portariviste, tra un quotidiano e un settimanale politico; appaiono magicamente nelle mani di figli e nipoti, cuginetti e fratelli minori, che sgranano gli occhi su quelle vignette con la stessa meraviglia con cui lo abbiamo fatto noi anni fa e i nostri genitori prima di noi.

Incantate fantasmagorie e sorprendenti divagazioni sono quelle che animano il capolavoro letterario di Ariosto. Un'opera che profetizza la modernità e le sue mai prevedibili traiettorie. Un'opera che sembra volerci raccontare di semplici cavalieri erranti appartenenti a un mondo lontano, e invece parla di noi, abitatori del ventunesimo secolo. Questo è l'Orlando furioso. Un'avventura letteraria di cui sono protagonisti la follia e l'amore.

Cosa ci insegnano Ulisse, il suo “multiforme ingegno” e la sua superbia sui limiti della scienza e della conoscenza umane? Come può la tragedia greca (Eschilo in particolare) aiutarci a comprendere i drammi che avvengono nel Mediterraneo? Quale insegnamento possiamo trarre dalle ribellioni di Prometeo e Antigone, in un momento storico in cui la ribellione appare l’unica via di salvezza? Che senso ha, insomma, riscoprire i classici nella nostra epoca iperconnessa e caotica?

"Il nuotatore di Cheever comprime tra le sue tenaglie tutta la vita di un alcolista. Io volevo seguire la stessa traiettoria oscura. Volevo sapere perché gli scrittori bevono e come questa miscela di spiriti si è ripercossa sull'organismo della letteratura." Cresciuta in una famiglia di alcolisti, Olivia Laing legge a diciassette anni La gatta sul tetto che scotta di Tennessee Williams e per la prima volta ritrova sulla pagina i comportamenti che conosce così bene, resi vivi dalle parole del drammaturgo.

“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.
