"Timor di me?" | La poesia di Pasolini per la Callas

Nell'estate del 1970, Pier Paolo Pasolini (Scrittore, poeta, autore e regista cinematografico e teatrale italiano, 1922-1975) compose dieci poesie pubblicate nella raccolta Transumanar e organizzar, silloge poetica del 1971, in cui Maria Callas (1923-1977) non veniva mai nominata, nonostante lei fosse, in Verba, «la ragazza ancora orgogliosa di essere di città e piena della morale antica».

Emily Dickinson: Ci sarà davvero un "mattino"?

Ci sarà davvero un "mattino"?
C'è una cosa come il "Giorno"?

Pierre-Auguste Renoir | Jeune fille au chapeau, 1895

Portraits of children were amongst Renoir's favourite themes and feature strongly in the artist's painting of the 1890s.
Over the previous decade Renoir had been commissioned to paint the children of a number of celebrated patrons, including the Lerolles and the Berards.
These commissions gave the artist a renewed interest in portraiture in the 1890s and Renoir painted a number of non-commissioned portraits in addition to more formal requests.
