Krapp’s Last Tape, Not I, That Time, & A Piece of Monologue - Samuel Beckett Category: Literature, Plays & Theater Language: EnglishKeywords: Literature Theatre Shared by:ssitimefill Krapp's Last Tape, Not I, That Time, & A Piece of Monologue - Samuel Beckett Written by Samuel Beckett Read by Jim Norton, Juliet Stevenson, John Moffatt, Peter Marinker Format: MP3 Bitrate: 64 Kbps Dramatization Listening Length: 1 hour and 27 minutes These four works show Samuel Beckett at his most penetrating. Both Krapp’s Last Tape (1958) and Not I (1972) are among the most striking pieces written for the theatre in the 20th century. An old man sits at a table, playing back old tapes made when he was younger, mixed glimpses of past feelings. In Not I, we have just a mouth expressing memories and torment in a torrent of words. That Time and A Piece of Monologue are less well-known, but express the Beckettian concerns of introspection, memory, and hopelessness in different ways, yet always with sympathy for the human condition. Though written for the stage, these four monodramas are even more penetrating in the enclosed, intimate medium of the audiobook.

Each story describes a small but significant moment of crisis or revelation in the life of a particular Dubliner, sympathetically but always with stark honesty. Many of the characters are desperate to escape the confines of their humdrum lives, though those that have the opportunity to do so seem unable to take it. This book holds none of the difficulties of Joyce’s later novels, such as Ulysses, yet in its way it is just as radical. These stories introduce us to the city which fed Joyce’s entire creative output, and to many of the characters who made it such a well of literary inspiration.

Provoking an unprecedented outpouring of public grief when it was first published, it follows the story of Little Nell and her feckless grandfather. Forced to leave their magical shop of curiosities in London, they are pursued across the English countryside by the grotesquely evil dwarf Quilp. They escape - but at what cost? Part tragedy, part allegory, this is Dickens at his most intense; drawing on his own experiences, he weaves a story of extraordinary emotional power. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Charles John Huffam Dickens was born on February 7, 1812 in Portsmouth, Hampshire, England. In 1824, his father was imprisoned for debt, so Charles was sent to work in a shoe-dye factory. He later became a clerk in a law firm, a shorthand reporter in the courts, and a parliamentary and newspaper reporter. In 1833, Dickens began to contribute short stories and essays to periodicals, heralding the start of a glittering and prolific literary career. He married Catherine Hogarth in 1836, with whom he had nine surviving children before they separated in 1858. Dickens died suddenly at home on June 9, 1870, leaving behind an internationally acclaimed canon of work, including Oliver Twist (1837), Nicholas Nickleby (1838), David Copperfield (1849-50), Bleak House (1852-53), Little Dorrit (1855-57), A Tale of Two Cities (1859), Great Expectations (1860-61) and Our Mutual Friend (1864-65). He was buried in Westminster Abbey. Michael Slater is Professor of Victorian Literature at Birkbeck College in the University of London. He was editor of The Dickensian (1968-77) and President of the International Dickens Fellowship (1988-90). He has published many books and articles on Dickens. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Selected Poems of Emily Dickinson by Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) Emily Dickinson has come to be regarded as one of the quintessential poets of 19th century America. A very private poet with a very quiet and reclusive life, her poetry was published posthumously and immediately found a wide audience. While she echoed the romantic natural themes of her times, her style was much more free and irregular, causing many to criticize her and editors to “correct” her. In the early 20th century, when poetic style had become much looser, new audiences learned to appreciate her work. Here collected are many of her most contemplative, most rebellious, and “dark” works, expressing her frustrations with the behavioral confines of her times, and the confines of being human and unknowing of eternity. (Summary by Becky Miller)

Alighieri Dante breve biografia Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) nasce a Firenze, da una famiglia di piccola nobiltà e di modeste rendite. La sua attività di poeta comincia nei primi anni ottanta e un contributo notevole a questa sua attività gli deriva dalla sua amicizia con Cavalcanti; dalla conoscenza di Brunetto Latini ricavò l'esempio di una attività poetica impegnata filosoficamente e politicamente. Nella sua prima opera, la "Vita Nuova", ricorda e celebra l'amore per Beatrice, morta nel 1290. Nel 1300 ricopre la carica di priore, cercando di opporsi alle mire temporali del papato per difendere l'autonomia del comune, mosso da spirito di giustizia e da una tensione rigoristico-francescana contro il potere della chiesa.Viene esiliato nel 1302, in seguito al trionfo della fazione nera dei guelfi. Durante l'esilio si colloca il resto della sua produzione tra cui la "Commedia": poema sacro, frutto allo stesso tempo di ingegno immaginativo e di forza realistica; straordinaria sintesi delle sue esperienze letterarie e politiche e delle sue convinzioni.

Novità in Download MP3: LA RAGAZZA CON LA TRECCIA di Dacia Maraini Un nuovo titolo per la collana ‘Voci al femminile’. Pubblicato nel ’94 da Viviani Editore in esclusiva per Alitalia, “La ragazza con la treccia” è un’ opera esemplificativa delle tematiche e dello stile di Dacia Maraini. Si tratta di una raccolta di tredici racconti, letti da quattro attrici, che rivelano l’abilità dell’autrice nel cogliere episodi di vita quotidiana e nel trasferirli nella scrittura con uno stile sobrio, vivace, venato a volte di malinconia, ma spesso anche di umorismo dallo stile agile, in cui le battute dei personaggi sono rare, secche, come i colpi di un bravo cacciatore. I temi dei racconti, sembrano uniti dal filo rosso della giovane età dei personaggi, collocati in una realtà in divenire, ricca di colpi di scena, descritti o lasciati immaginare... continua

The Ballad of Reading Gaol by Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) Wilde’s meditation on capital punishment, the Ballad of Reading Gaol comes after he was convicted and imprisoned under charges of gross indecency. The charges stemmed from his affair with Lord Alfred Douglas, the son of the Marquis of Queensberry. It relates the story of an execution of a man who murdered his wife which Wilde witnessed during his internment. Published in 1898, it was Wilde’s last published poem as he would die in 1900 from cerebral menengitis, caused by syphilis.
