Dalla prefazione delleditor: La scelta dellautore [...] mette in chiaro il fatto che non stiamo leggendo una storia normale con personaggi che vivono la loro vita.Dalla prefazione dellautore: La questione che mi preme molto e far cadere ogni tentativo di narrazione: in breve, dunque, non voglio raccontarvi proprio un bel niente.Sinossi: Matteo, lautore di questopera, ha rinchiuso allinterno di un teatro tre attori chiamati "il protagonista", "il secondo protagonista" e "lattrice". Loro stanno portando avanti le prove per uno spettacolo che si dara a breve, ma purtroppo le cose non sono semplici perche: il protagonista vuole fuggire via, non vuole fare parte di questopera ("In questo luogo ce un divieto categorico da rispettare ed e di non scappare!" recita il cartello sulla porta di uscita, nel primo capitolo), litiga spesso con laltro attore ed e combattuto dalla scelta se evirarlo oppure ucciderlo; questultimo poi e sposato con lattrice, ma lei attrae il desiderio amoroso anche del protagonista. In tutto cio, il narratore dellopera ha ottenuto dagli attori il privilegio di assistere a queste prove, ma egli per timore di cio che andra a vedere e raccontare ha esteso questo privilegio anche ai lettori. Resta dunque da ammirare, tutti insieme, le loro gesta che dimostrano la grande abilita dei tre nel mischiare falsita vitale e verita scenica.

Mein einziger Sohn Robert wurde im Alter von 30 Jahren bestialisch ermordet. Ein grausamer Schicksalsschlag, bei dem Suizidgedanken zu verarbeiten waren. Wenn die Seele schreit, ist sie offen und empfanglich fur alles, speziell fur Krankheiten, die mich hart trafen. Mir ist jedoch ein posttraumatisches Wachstum widerfahren, denn diejenigen, die sich von so schweren Schicksalsschlagen nicht unterkriegen lassen, machen die paradoxe Erfahrung, dass aus der eigentlichen Verletzlichkeit eine neue innere Kraft und Starke erwachst. Und diese habe ich wieder gefunden.

Wuthering Heights is Emily Brontes first and only published novel, written between October 1845 and June 1846, and published in 1847 under the pseudonym Ellis Bell; Bronte died the following year, aged 30. The decision to publish came after the success of her sister Charlottes novel, Jane Eyre. After Emilys death, Charlotte edited the manuscript of Wuthering Heights, and arranged for the edited version to be published as a posthumous second edition in 1850. Wuthering Heights is the name of the farmhouse where the story unfolds. The books core theme is the destructive effect of jealousy and vengefulness both on the jealous or vengeful individuals and on their communities.Although Wuthering Heights is now widely regarded as a classic of English literature, it received mixed reviews when first published, and was considered controversial because its depiction of mental and physical cruelty was unusually stark, and it challenged strict Victorian ideals of the day, including religious hypocrisy, morality, social classes and gender inequality. The English poet and painter Dante Gabriel Rossetti referred to it as "A fiend of a book an incredible monster ... The action is laid in hell, only it seems places and people have English names there." In the second half of the 19th century, Charlotte Brontes Jane Eyre was considered the best of the Bronte sisters works, but following later re-evaluation, critics began to argue Wuthering Heights was superior. The book has inspired adaptations, including film, radio and television dramatisations, a musical by Bernard J. Taylor, a ballet, operas (by Bernard Herrmann, Carlisle Floyd, and Frederic Chaslin), a role-playing game,and a 1978 song by Kate Bush.

THE TRAGEDY OF HAMLET, PRINCE OF DENMARKTHE SONNETSTHE TEMPESTROMEO AND JULIETA MIDSUMMER NIGHTS DREAMTWELFTH NIGHT"Two households, both alike in dignity, In fair Verona, where we lay our scene, From ancient grudge break to new mutiny, Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. From forth the fatal loins of these two foes A pair of star-crossd lovers take their life; Whose misadventurd piteous overthrows Doth with their death bury their parents strife. The fearful passage of their death-markd love, And the continuance of their parents rage, Which but their childrens end naught could remove, Is now the two hours traffic of our stage; The which, if you with patient ears attend, What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend.

The clear, smiling lake wooed to bathe in its deep,A boy on its green shore had laid him to sleep;Then heard he a melodyFlowing and soft,And sweet, as when angelsAre singing aloft.And as thrilling with pleasure he wakes from his rest,The waters are murmuring over his breast;And a voice from the deep cries,"With me thou must go,I charm the young shepherd,I lure him below."

Widowers Houses is a play by George Bernard Shaw, an Irish playwright who became the leading dramatist of his generation, and in 1925 was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature.Widowers Houses was the first play by George Bernard Shaw to be staged. This is one of three plays Shaw published as Plays Unpleasant in 1898. They were termed "unpleasant" because they were intended, not to entertain their audiences as the traditional Victorian theatre was expected to but to raise awareness of social problems and to censure exploitation of the labouring class by the unproductive rich. The other plays in the group are The Philanderer and Mrs. Warrens Profession.

When We Dead Awaken, first published in 1899 as "Naar vi dde vaagner", is the final theatrical drama written by Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen. Set at a Norwegian spa during the wintertime, the story is told in three acts, and charts the existential ruminations of professor and famed sculptor Arnold Rubek as he reunites with his former muse, Irene von Satow. Desperate to recapture the glory of his past inspirations, Rubek must also reconcile his relationship with his estranged wife, Maia. Often called one of Ibsens most confessional works, the play touches on themes of despair, mortality, legacy, nostalgia, artistic expression, petrification, rekindled romances, and ultimately, the acceptance of death. Some scholars believe the play is a biographical blend of Ibsens own life with that of his contemporary, Auguste Rodin.
