Of Mice and Men

Arnaldo Ageno — Wed, 21 May 2025 20:27:21 +0000

Drifters in search of work, George and his childlike friend Lennie, have nothing in the world except the clothes on their back – and a dream that one day they will have some land of their own. Eventually they find work on a ranch in California’s Salinas Valley, but their hopes are dashed as Lennie – struggling against extreme cruelty, misunderstanding and feelings of jealousy – becomes a victim of his own strength. Tackling universal themes of friendship and shared vision, and giving a voice to America’s lonely and dispossessed, Of Mice and Men remains Steinbeck’s most popular work, achieving success as a novel, Broadway play and three acclaimed films.

Lettres persanes

Arnaldo Ageno — Mon, 11 Nov 2024 16:58:47 +0000

Usbek, un grand seigneur persan intelligent et désabusé, accompagné de son jeune ami Rica, plus malléable et enthousiaste, vient à Paris afin de découvrir les secrets et l’art de vivre du monde occidental. Les moeurs, les caractères, les types sociaux, le décor et la vie – tout les surprend et les pousse au parallèle avec leur propre monde. Puis, une fois surmonté le premier désarroi, cette société nouvelle révèle peu à peu ses fondements et ses lois, mais également ses drames. L’étranger d’abord étonné devient observateur politique, philosophe et quasi-sociologue avant l’heure : « Comment peut-on être persan ? » Si dès leur parution en 1721, les Lettres persanes rencontrent un considérable succès, c’est qu’au-delà du roman par lettres ce livre étrange et neuf est une chronique politique en même temps qu’un journal de voyage. C’est aussi un essai de morale, mais convenons qu’en Montesquieu le moraliste est gai, et que le ton de ses lettres est volontiers narquois. Voltaire, ainsi, a pu juger que, dans cet « ouvrage de plaisanterie », « plein de traits annoncent un esprit plus solide que son livre ». En réalité, le livre est aussi solide que l’esprit car la leçon du roman est que l’impertinence est libératrice : l’écrivain accepte le monde où il vit, mais refuse d’en être la dupe.
