Arnaldo Ageno — Thu, 31 Jul 2025 10:34:34 +0000

It’s no surprise that our fast-paced, overly self-analytical culture is pushing many people – especially women – to spend countless hours thinking about negative ideas, feelings, and experiences. Renowned psychologist Dr Susan Nolen-Hoeksema calls this overthinking, and her groundbreaking research shows that an increasing number of women – more than half of those in her extensive study – are doing it too much and too often, leading to sadness, anxiety, and depression. In Women Who Think Too Much, Nolen-Hoeksema shows us what causes so many women to be overthinkers and provides concrete strategies that can be used to escape these negative thoughts, move to higher ground, and live more productively.

Women Who Think Too Much will change lives, and is destined to become a self-help classic.

Non sorprende che la nostra cultura frenetica ed eccessivamente autoanalitica spinga molte persone, soprattutto le donne, a trascorrere innumerevoli ore a pensare a idee, sentimenti ed esperienze negative. La rinomata psicologa Dott.ssa Susan Nolen-Hoeksema chiama questo fenomeno “pensare troppo” e la sua ricerca rivoluzionaria dimostra che un numero crescente di donne – più della metà di quelle oggetto del suo ampio studio – lo fa troppo e troppo spesso, il che porta a tristezza, ansia e depressione. In Women Who Think Too Much, Nolen-Hoeksema ci mostra cosa spinge così tante donne a pensare troppo e fornisce strategie concrete che possono essere utilizzate per sfuggire a questi pensieri negativi, raggiungere un livello superiore e vivere in modo più produttivo.

Women Who Think Too Much cambia la vita ed è destinato a diventare un classico del self-help.

Una misteriosa stirpe di nati con le basette, un’avida tribù di nuore, cognati, generi e cugini, un circo, un bizzarro genitore dal passato eroico, finito, pelle e ossa e in virtù di chissà quale oscura forza, in un maleodorante bugigattolo perso negli inesplorati meandri di una casa grande come il mondo, con sale che ospitano laghi e infilate di stanze disseminate di massi e crepacci. Questi strampalati e teneri personaggi cominciano a muoversi, a beccarsi, a trastullarsi l’un l’altro come fossero pupazzi di papier mâché, impegnati in fantasmagoriche avventure, incantate ed esilaranti. È l’intera storia dell’uomo e della Russia a rivivere in cerchi concentrici fuori del tempo e dello spazio. Una saga familiare popolata di sfavillanti dagherrotipi e di personaggi surreali, raccontata con una lingua speziata e clownesca.

Arnaldo Ageno — Thu, 27 Feb 2025 13:07:31 +0000

Der goldne Topf, Hoffmanns Märchen aus der neuen Zeit, spielt virtuos mit den Ebenen des Wunderbaren und des Bürgerlich-Philiströsen. Der Weg des Studenten Anselmus von Dresden nach Atlantis wird phantasievoll-humoristisch erzählt und zugleich ironisch reflektiert. Seit langem und mit Recht gilt der Märchenroman als ein Höhepunkt romantischer Erzählkunst.

The Last Man

Arnaldo Ageno — Wed, 19 Feb 2025 17:09:53 +0000

With an Introduction and Notes by Dr Pamela Bickley, The Godolphin and Latymer School, formerly of Royal Holloway, University of London. The Last Man is Mary Shelley’s apocalyptic fantasy of the end of human civilisation. Set in the late twenty-first century, the novel unfolds a sombre and pessimistic vision of mankind confronting inevitable destruction.

Interwoven with her futuristic theme, Mary Shelley incorporates idealised portraits of Shelley and Byron, yet rejects Romanticism and its faith in art and nature.

Histoires extraordinaires

Arnaldo Ageno — Thu, 06 Feb 2025 10:52:19 +0000

Les treize nouvelles rassemblées dans ce volume sont le fruit du choix de Baudelaire : il en a lui-même traduit les textes, par admiration pour un auteur dont il partage le goût du macabre et une attirance certaine pour la mort et ses mystères. Styliste hors pair, Edgar Allan Poe crée des univers issus d’une tradition littéraire établie (conte germanique, romantisme noir, aventure), et en même temps uniques. Partant d’éléments réalistes ou scientifiques, il surprend le lecteur en le menant, tour à tour, vers la littérature policière, dont il fut un pionnier, le canular journalistique, le conte fantastique ou la science-fiction. Nourrie des grands auteurs, son œuvre fut à son tour une source d’inspiration, de Jules Verne à H.G. Wells, de Stevenson à Conan Doyle.
