Ciao Carolyne, ecco le parole che formeranno la prima pietra di questa casa/libro che ci darà riparo nei momenti cupi. Sarà un luogo dove ci sentiremo al sicuro, privo di angoli vivi e di insetti dai pensieri che pungono. Siamo qui insieme a poggiarne le fondamenta... come uno strano dialogo a distanza. Il vento colpisce le parole che formano le pietre e alcune lettere volano via. Da tale parziale nudità nasceranno le finestre e le porte. Hi Carolyne, here the words that will form the first stone of this house/booklet giving us shelter in the dark moments. It will be a place where we will feel safe, free from sharp corners and insects with stinging thoughts. We are here together to lay the foundations of it ... like a strange dialogue at a distance. The wind hits the words forming the stones. Some letters will fly away. From this partial nakedness windows and doors will be born. Un duetto poetico tra Uganda e Italia. Poeti: Carolyne Afroetry MA e Marco Marengo A poetry duo between Uganda and Italy. Poets: Carolyne Afroetry MA and Marco Marengo
This book explores social cohesion in rural settlements in western Europe from 700–1050, asking to what extent settlements, or districts, constituted units of social organisation. It focuses on the interactions, interconnections and networks of people who lived side by side – neighbours. Drawing evidence from most of the current western European countries, the book plots and interrogates the very different practices of this wide range of regions in a systematically comparative framework. It considers the variety of local responses to the supra-local agents of landlords and rulers and the impact, such as it was, of those agents on the small-scale residential group. It also assesses the impact on local societies of the values, instructions and demands of the wider literate world of Christianity, as delivered by local priests.

Santagata brings together a vast body of Italian scholarship on Dante’s medieval world, untangles a complex web of family and political relationships for English readers, and shows how the composition of the Commedia was influenced by local and regional politics. “Reading Marco Santagata’s fascinating new biography, the reader is soon forced to acknowledge that one of the cornerstones of Western literature [The Divine Comedy], a poem considered sublime and universal, is the product of vicious factionalism and packed with local scandal.” —Tim Parks, London Review of Books “This is a wonderful book. Even if you have not read Dante you will be gripped by its account of one of the most extraordinary figures in the history of literature, and one of the most dramatic periods of European history. If you are a Dantean, it will be your invaluable companion forever.” —A. N. Wilson, The Spectator

ÔEvil will indeed flourish when good men remain silent, and yet sometimes all that it takes to bring dark practices to light is for a single man to speak out.' This book tells the story of John Anderson, an unassuming and decent living 85 year old retired school teacher who lives outside London. Depressed by years of living in a toxic social environment and under a government whose policies are openly hostile to the elderly, he finally decides to die by euthanasia. Euthanasia clinics claim to offer the sick and elderly a dignified death, free from pain at a time and place of their choosing. But John discovers that beneath the calm and rosy veneer of the clinics there lies a living hell, which he is determined to expose. The scenario portrayed here is surely just a page in mankindÕs history book away from reality!
