Esopo, il celebre favolista dell'antica Grecia, con molto acume, ironia e soprattutto talento, compose numerose favole dedicate soprattutto agli animali, con chiari riferimenti ai caratteri e alle abitudini degli esseri umani. Profondo osservatore degli uomini, catalogò sotto forma di favole, i vizi e le virtù dei suoi simili, con obiettività e sagacia. Impossibile non sorridere delle sue osservazioni sulle debolezze degli uomini, che nel suo immaginario, sono impersonati da scimmie, cavalli, muli, corvi, leoni e da tutti gli altri animali conosciuti a quel tempo, e non solo.

Un giallo straordinario, dove il colpevole non sa di esserlo. Un'indagine senza precedenti, in cui assassino e detective sono la stessa persona. Reo dei più turpi delitti, eppure innocente, Edipo è vittima e artefice del Fato che lo travolge, in una trama micidiale che solo gli Dei potevano concepire. Il capolavoro di Sofocle torna in una traduzione che viene da lontano, potenziato da una colonna sonora dei nostri giorni.

Does Nature Discrimate the Downtrodden? I watch the villagers come out when the weather gets cool in the evenings, looking up with eager eyes for signs of rain, praying that their crops are safe and don’t wither under the persistent scorching sun. Seeds dying even before they sprout are as common as the dust-filled roads that mar the paths they tread upon. Their animals, bared of flesh, are constantly in their minds. Their bony form requires nourishment and water so that they can turn the soils of the land and be a source of staples. Can Yearning Hearts Be Pacified With A Touch of Beauty ...

"Les Métamorphoses" d'Ovide (43 avant J-C-17 après J-C) constituent une œuvre épique de douze mille vers composée en 15 Livres. Deux cent quarante-six fables racontent les transformations d'hommes, de dieux ou de héros en animaux, plantes ou minéraux par la magie ou la volonté des dieux. On y reconnaît des légendes antiques, comme le jugement de Pâris, ou les mythes de Phaéton conduisant le char du Soleil, celui de Persée et Andromède, ou encore ceux des Argonautes et du roi Midas.

Forced to make love to beautiful women, this is adult science fiction at its best. The Gods and Goddesses of Ancient Greece and Rome had returned to Earth - with all their awesome powers intact, and Earth was transformed almost overnight. War on any scale was outlawed, along with boom-and-bust economic cycles, and prudery - no change was more startling than the face of New York, where, for instance, the Empire State Building became the Tower of Zeus!

Что случится, если барышня переоденется крестьянкой, а молодой барин — влюбится в простушку с глазами героини романа? Это рассказ о любви, рождении симпатии сквозь игру и притворство, где деревенская роща становится театром настоящих чувств, а старая вражда между соседями — поводом для весёлой, почти опереточной интриги.

La Giudea è in fiamme, rivolte e massacri si susseguono sotto lo sguardo costernato di cinque personaggi che osservano increduli l’ascesa e il declino del re dei Giudei, Simone bar Giora: forse un messia, forse un mistico, forse un mago, di certo un rivoluzionario e un nemico dell’Impero. Tito, il fratello Domiziano, un maestro di cerimonie, un cospiratore ebreo e uno scanzonato vagabondo scrivono all’imperatore Vespasiano, interrogandosi su Simone, l’uomo che sta guidando i Giudei alla rivolta. Dalla sua apparizione tra le fila della guerra giudaica, fino alla sua crocifissione a ...

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.
