World War II rises in its vastness and complexity over the rest of human history. A number of victims difficult to conceive, never surpassed by any other conflict, the war was a gigantic melting pot of violence, power, and ideology that will leave an indelible scar on human history. This diary has been able to cover all facets of the conflict, and it is a fundamentally empirical work, which narrates events as they occurred, rejecting value judgments, and therein lies its value: it is an insurmountable encyclopedia on war. Here, the day by day of the month of: June 1940.

When the state of Colorado ordered its residents to shelter in place in response to the spread of coronavirus, writers Pam Houston and Amy Irvine — who had never met — began a correspondence based on their shared devotion to the rugged, windswept mountains that surround their homes, one on each side of the Continental Divide. As the numbers of infected and dead rose and the nation split dangerously over the crisis, Houston and Irvine found their letters to one another as necessary as breath.

Each working day from January 29 to November 1, 1951, John Steinbeck warmed up to the work of writing East of Eden with a letter to the late Pascal Covici, his friend and editor at The Viking Press. It was his way, he said, of "getting my mental arm in shape to pitch a good game." Steinbeck's...

Questo diario è il terzo libro scritto da me, un’esplorazione degli ambienti cittadini ed extraurbani per osservare gli umani e gli oggetti moderni. Rappresentazioni in forma filosofica o matematica per riuscire a trovare la giusta quantità di moto, le prove che il bene è un più alto sentimento, senz’altro rispetto a un male, la giusta ripetizione di sempre le stesse cose per confermare, che qui non si può dire il falso e tanto meno realizzarlo.

"De Profundis" è una lunga lettera che Oscar Wilde scrisse al suo compagno Alfred Douglas nel 1897. Wilde era stato processato ed incarcerato per omosessualità e scrisse il "De Profundis" dalla sua cella. È una lettera intensamente personale che indaga le fasi del dolore e intreccia il tema religioso con quello dell'arte. Fu pubblicata nel 1905, cinque anni dopo la morte di Wilde, con il titolo latino "De Profundis" che si traduce in "dal profondo". Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) è stato un drammaturgo, romanziere, saggista e poeta irlandese.

Questo diario è il quarto libro scritto da me, una raccolta di venti composizioni che rappresentano il pensiero e le certezze della nostra epoca moderna. Racconti su un passato non molto lontano che potrebbe identificarsi nella realtà odierna, il presente non recensito giornalisticamente, persone che non hanno rappresentazioni comuni pubbliche, troppo impegnate in un certo senso a pensare quel che non hanno mai potuto fare, fino a ciò che gli è stato tolto per non intendere un bene o un male contemporaneo.

"Brief an meine Mutter" ist der berührende Erfahrungsbericht eines dramatischen Generationen-Konflikts und gleichzeitig Waris Diries persönlichstes Werk. Als Waris Dirie erfährt, dass ihre Mutter schwer erkrankt ist, zögert sie nicht, sie aus ihrem Heimatland Somalia für eine Operation in ihre Wahlheimat Wien zu holen. Die medizinische Versorgung in Somalia ist noch immer unzureichend, und in Europa kann geholfen werden.

Congiure di corte, imperatori avvelenati, esili, matricidi, infamie varie, Nerone, Agrippina, Messalina. Quando si fa il nome di Lucio Anneo Seneca, il Giovane, bisogna subito associarlo a un fondale di trame e di lotte all'ultimo sangue per il potere. Bisogna pensare a imperatori pazzi e geniali, a calunnie, a cordate, a rese dei conti, a notti romane popolate di incontri segreti, di patti magari sottoscritti per essere subito disattesi. Sono cose che non vi giungono nuove?

This second volume of the best-selling diaries of Henry 'Chips' Channon takes us from the heady aftermath of the Munich agreement, when the prime minister Chips so admired was credited with having averted a general European conflagration, through the rapid unravelling of appeasement, and on to the tribulations of the early years of the Second World War. It closes with a moment of hope, as Channon, in recording the fall of Mussolini in July 1943, reflects: 'The war must be more than half over.'
