Leterna primavera e un lungo viaggio che inizia in Italia e passa per il Messico per poi proseguire ovunque il mondo lo consenta. È la storia di un amore difficile, incerto ma potentissimo. Un amore che nasce nella lontananza e che prova a costruirsi giorno dopo giorno sebbene nessuno possa sapere se e quanto durera. E attorno allamore si costruisce lesistenza dellio narrante, che passo dopo passo scopre e riscopre se stesso nel profondo. Leterna primavera e un testo intimo, ironico e intelligente come pochi altri. Con naturalezza e intensita, porta a galla tutte le difficolta dellamore e ci fa porre una domanda: vale sempre la pena di viverlo fino in fondo anche se e incerto e instabile, oppure dovremmo preferire il grigiore della vita e rinunciare in partenza a quellesperienza indicibile?

The Discovery of Witchcraft is an exposé of the early modern witchcraft. Originally published in 1584, the book was written against the belief in witches, to show that witchcraft did not exist. Part of its content exposed how feats of magic were done, and the book is often deemed the first textbook on conjuring. Moreover, the book contains a small section which describes how the charlatans were able to fool the public and why the prosecutions of the accused were unwarranted for and un-Christian. The author also provocatively held the Roman church responsible to the prosecutions. The book became highly popular as an exhaustive encyclopaedia of contemporary beliefs about witchcraft, spirits, alchemy, magic, and legerdemain. William Shakespeare also drew from his study of Scots book hints for his picture of the witches in Macbeth, and Thomas Middleton in his play of The Witch likewise was indebted to this source.
