Translation

Katherine Larson — molecular biologist and revelation of American poetry — here for the first time in Italian. Her way of conceiving existence arises from the awareness of having been mysteriously seen, together with the smallest blade of grass and the migratory motion of clouds. In her poetry one never finds the attempt to explain, because “there is no language for this, for the way I see you when you shine.”

A cura di Pietro Federico

What is democracy? Or rather, what has democracy become today? Written in 1911, The Party System is a description of English political life whose prophetic force remains undeniable — a demonstration of how a man, looking carefully at his past and present, can help us understand our own time.

Traduzione di Tommaso Maria Minardi e Pietro Federico

Published in 1935, a collection of polemical essays defending Catholicism and its cultural tradition — the “well” of the title — from the attacks of a secularized society and Anglican Protestantism — the “puddles.” Chesterton replies to his adversaries with irony and lightness, defending the true meaning of words.

Edizioni San Paolo · Dimensioni dello Spirito · 2011 · 164 pp

Traduzione di Tommaso Maria Minardi e Pietro Federico

An essay on marriage and against the false illusions of divorce. For Chesterton, marriage is not an investigation, an experiment, or an accident — it is a vow, an oath. And the oath is a limit, a window: the only window through which man can understand the meaning of his own life and of History.
