Book Description
Looking at some of the Shakespearean comedies, author John Vyvyan suggests they express a consistent, profoundly Christian philosophy of life based on the Platonic ideas of beauty and love. In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, As You Like It, and All’s Well That Ends Well, the heroines bring to life the idea of love as the force that is awakened in the world by beauty which then leads the soul to perfection. Vyvyan believes that for Shakespeare, love was preeminent over human ideas of justice, that self-discovery was a supreme human experience, and that breaking faith with the ideal—as Agamemnon, Cressida, and Hector all do in Troilus and Cressida —sowed the seeds of tragedy. The author’s recognition of Shakespeare's use of allegory enables him to make sense of certain developments in these plays that seem weak or absurd from the psychological standpoint. He does not suggest that Shakespeare’s philosophy is the most important thing about his plays; it is simply one thing about them that ought to be known. The recognition of this philosophy enhances enjoyment of the plays, giving them a new dimension and richness. This edition contains a list of the author’s Shakespearean references and an enhanced index.

Book Description
Questo lavoro di prosa è composto da quattro episodi che hanno, come filo conduttore, il sentimento amore. I titoli dei singoli episodi sono: L'esca e il cacciatore, Confusione & diritto, Femminicidio, Amore senza amore. Un libro da leggere, una commedia da rappresentare. Io sostengo che "L'amore senza amore" è uno scrigno vuoto, un libro bianco, un bomba ad orologeria messa in mano all'ipocrisia.

Book Description
Endri Kosturi was born in Tirana, Albania, in 1980. When he was only 7 years old, one of his first large-scale painting, Spring, was shown at the National Art Gallery in Tirana. In 1990 his family moved to Italy where he later studied fine arts. Kosturi is earlier influenced by the masters of figurative painting, but ultimately developed his own evocative and conceptual abstract style. Endri is moved by the universal idea of Love manifesting an extraordinary sensitivity to colour. As the ubiquitous windows motif remains his signature theme in his work. Kosturi lives and works in London. He has exhibited in solo and collective shows in London, Paris, Rome, Milan and Trieste. The book has text both in English and Italian language.
