Download or read book Last Dream written by Giovanni Pascoli and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-30 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Italian Studies. Translated by Geoffrey Brock. An essential new translation of one of Italian literature's most celebrated poets. Giovanni Pascoli stands as a towering figure at the threshold of modern Italian poetry, yet he is little known in English. He wrote his best poems in the last decade of the nineteenth century and the first few years of the twentieth, in an extraordinary burst that included his three most important collections, Myricae, Canti di Castelvecchio, and Primi poemetti. In this volume, translator Geoffrey Brock offers a personal anthology that conveys the wide-eyed spirit and formal beauty of the originals. "This collection is a revelation. In Geoffrey Brock's impeccable versions, Pascoli becomes a poet who demands to be read out loud. Time and again I found myself stopping to savor a phrase, a line break, a rhyme, a stanza. And then reading the poem over from the start. 'The Sleep of Odysseus' is heart-stopping. It's difficult to overstate my admiration for that tact, grace, and formal imagination that shape these remarkable translations."--Clare Cavanagh "A champion of childlike intuition, muted tones, and 'small things,' Pascoli has until now been confined to his corner of the map. In this personal anthology, poet and translator Geoff Brock conveys to us the best of Pascoli. His Pascoli is the author of subtle, bewitching poems that look both inward and outward, celebrating the natural world and the inner life of humble objects: kites, walking sticks, the little nests of spring. Brock has kept the rhymes and meters, and his deeply intelligent remakings breathe new life into the old idiom."--Will Schutt

Download or read book Virgil's last dream of Aeneas and Homer written by Art Aeon and published by AEON PRESS, Halifax, NS, Canada. This book was released on with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virgil’s Last Dream of Aeneas and Homer by Art Aeon is a fictional narrative poem in the tercet stanza. It unfolds the imaginary dialogues between Augustus (63 BCE-14 CE), the first Roman emperor, and Varius Rufus (74-14 BCE), a literary executor of the great Roman poet, Publius Vergilius Maro (70-19 BCE), known as Virgil. Varius reports Virgil’s untimely death to Augustus and reveals that he keeps Virgil’s unpublished manuscript of The Aeneid. At Augustus’s request, Varius relates a succinct gist of the first six books of The Aeneid and what Virgil told him at his death about his numinous last dream on how the spirit of Aeneas guided Virgil to Dis to meet with the spirit of Homer, and what they discussed on the epic poetry: In his dream, Virgil prayed to muse Calliope for inspiration to bring his Aeneid to a meaningful conclusion. Calliope suggested that Virgil invoke Aeneas to guide him for a supernatural adventure to meet Homer in Dis and ask for expert advice in improving his new epic. At Virgil’s sincere invocation, Aeneas’s spirit appeared to him. Eventually, Aeneas guided Virgil to the palace of the queen of the dead, Proserpina. In an impromptu symposium, held by Proserpina at the plea of Aeneas, Virgil met Homer-Meles, the author of The Iliad, and Homer-Outis, the author of The Odyssey. Virgil recited his Aeneid for his revered Greek poets. After their earnest and enlightening discussions, the Greek bards convinced Virgil that his Aeneid was as good as a human could achieve. Proserpina announced that Virgil’s visit to Dis was overdue; he should return to the world of the living. At that point, Virgil awakes from his numinous dream and finds his dear friend Varius, waiting by his bed. He realizes that the time has come for him to depart from this world to Dis. Virgil requests Varius to publish The Aeneid as it is and impart his dream of Aeneas and Homer to others. Then Virgil gently passes away in peace.

Download or read book Earth. the Last Dream written by Tony Spada and published by Mondial. This book was released on 2009-12-08 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What you are about to read is an adventurous story - a little like a fairy tale. However, it is a wish for an Earth better than the actual one, a kind of "teaching" for the younger people, in the hands of whom one day the destiny of our planet will be placed. Andrew, the main character of the book, will be the chosen one: he who will have to spread Love, Liberty, Happiness, Harmony, Peace, Wisdom, and Respect towards mankind and the environment. This could seem imaginative; but it is really not at all far from reality. It is at the same time a distant and an imminent truth - a truth almost totally and, it seems, deliberately ignored. This is a book substantially for the younger people, but suitable for everyone because it is never too late to start to read books and to believe in the unknown. But, above all, it is never too late to take a cue from reading and behave differently in everyday life.

Will the neurons in our brains be rewired to turn us into servile conformists? Is the clash of dreams the real cause of mankind's afflictions? If neuroscientists succeed, there will soon be a way to access and decipher the brain's most quirky constructs.
