In an overloaded, superficial, technological world, in which almost everything and everybody is judged by its usefulness, where can we turn for escape, lasting pleasure, contemplation, or connection to others? While many forms of leisure meet these needs, Zena Hitz writes, few experiences are so fulfilling as the inner life, whether that of a bookworm, an amateur astronomer, a birdwatcher, or someone who takes a deep interest in one of countless other subjects. Drawing on inspiring examples, from Socrates and Augustine to Malcolm X and Elena Ferrante, and from films to Dr. Hitz's own experiences as someone who walked away from elite university life in search of greater fulfillment, Lost in Thought is a passionate and timely reminder that a rich life is a life rich in thought.Today, when even the humanities are often defended only for their economic or political usefulness, Dr. Hitz says our intellectual lives are valuable not despite but because of their practical uselessness. And while anyone can have an intellectual life, she encourages academics in particular to get back in touch with the desire to learn for its own sake, and calls on universities to return to the person-to-person transmission of the habits of mind and heart that bring out the best in us. Reminding us of who we once were and who we might become, Lost in Thought is a moving account of why renewing our inner lives is fundamental to preserving our humanity. Our guest is: Dr. Zena Hitz, who is a Tutor in the great books program at St. John's College. She has a PhD in ancient philosophy from Princeton University and studies and teaches across the liberal arts. She is the founder of the Catherine Project, and the author of Lost in Thought. Our host is: Dr. Christina Gessler, who works as a developmental editor and grad student coach. She is the founder of the Academic Life project including this podcast, and writes the Academic Life Newsletter at ChristinaGessler.Substack.Com.

Is long form reading a dying pastime? Journalist and cultural critic James Marriott joins EconTalk's Russ Roberts to defend the increasingly quaint act of reading a book in our scrolling-obsessed, AI-summarized age. He urges juggling a paper book and a Kindle, recounts ditching his smartphone to rescue his attention, and shares tactics for finding the "right" beach novel and biography. He and Russ also debate the value of re-reading, spar over Dostoevsky, celebrate Elena Ferrante, and swap suggestions for poetry that "puts reality back in your bones." Throughout, they argue that the shallowness of social media makes the best case for diving into the dense, intellectually difficult, yet uniquely transformative power of books.
Dietro le quarte. Il lavoro sui libri raccontato da chi li fa
Concludiamo la terza stagione del podcast analizzando il caso Elena Ferrante con Giulio Passerini, ufficio stampa di e/o. Come si comunica un'autrice che “non c'è”? Nel corso dell'intervista affrontiamo la gestione della scelta dell'anonimato, l'intermediazione della casa editrice con stampa e media, la traiettoria della critica nel corso del tempo e le prospettive future per la memoria della sua opera.
Vi översvämmas dagligen av råd och tips om hur man vårdar en kärleksrelation. Mer sällan riktas ljuset mot vänskapen, som även den kan vara både livslång och problematisk. Alltsedan antiken har filosofer försökt ringa in vari vänskapen består och samtidigt verkar den vara historiskt föränderlig. Det gäller inte minst vänskap mellan kvinnor. Litteraturvetaren Anna Victoria Hallberg läser Elena Ferrante och tittar på TV-serien Industry, och ser frågor väckas om kvinnlig vänskap i vår tid. Manus och inläsning: Anna Victoria Hallberg. Regi och ljudproduktion: Lars in de Betou Redaktör: Hedvig Härnsten Producent och redaktör: Magnus Bremmer Fler essäer hittar du på anekdot.se.

O Autores e Livros desta semana traz uma edição especial em homenagem ao Dia das Mães, reunindo obras que exploram a maternidade, a feminilidade e os vínculos afetivos. Entre os destaques, está o aclamado romance “A Filha Perdida”, de Elena Ferrante, que retrata os dilemas e incertezas de uma professora universitária de meia-idade ao tirar férias sozinha. A obra aborda temas como identidade feminina, os desafios do papel materno e os conflitos entre os desejos individuais e as responsabilidades familiares. Outro destaque é “Feminina”, da psicóloga Karine Rizzardi, que discute a sobrecarga emocional enfrentada pelas mulheres e a busca por equilíbrio e propósito. Segundo a autora, resgatar o lado feminino com leveza e autenticidade pode tornar a jornada mais suave. A edição conta ainda com uma entrevista especial com a escritora Clara Gavilan, autora de “O Tempo Lá Fora” (VR Editora), livro que retrata a delicada relação entre mãe e filha em meio à correria do dia a dia. Com aquarelas e um texto sensível, Clara convida o leitor a redescobrir a poesia presente nos pequenos gestos e no olhar contemplativo das crianças. Com sugestões de leitura que vão do romance à poesia, o Autores e Livros convida o público a celebrar as mães e as histórias que as inspiram, reforçando a importância da literatura como ferramenta de conexão e reflexão sobre os afetos.

Bohaterką tego odcinka jest Natalia Ginzburg – jedna z najwybitniejszych pisarek XX wieku, której zbiór esejów zatytułowany „Małe cnoty” po 6 dekadach od włoskiej premiery możemy czytać po raz pierwszy w polskim tłumaczeniu.Teksty Natalii Ginzburg, mimo że pisane były w połowie ubiegłego stulecia, dziś wydają się bardziej aktualne niż pół wieku temu. I nie przestają inspirować, do fascynacji „Małymi cnotami” przyznaje się bowiem wiele współczesnych pisarek, między innymi Zadie Smith, Sally Rooney czy Elena Ferrante.Natalia Ginzburg była mistrzynią prostego, ascetycznego języka, w którym nie było miejsca na przypadkowe czy zbędne słowa. Dlatego jej zdania z jednej strony urzekają prostotą, z drugiej zaś niosą w sobie ogromną siłę.Prowadzenie: Agata KasprolewiczGość: Ewa WieleżyńskaKsiążka: „Małe cnoty” Natalia Ginzburg/przekład: Weronika Korzeniecka/ wydawnictwo Filtry---------------------------------------------Raport o stanie świata to audycja, która istnieje dzięki naszym Patronom, dołącz się do zbiórki ➡️ https://patronite.pl/DariuszRosiakSubskrybuj newsletter Raportu o stanie świata ➡️ https://dariuszrosiak.substack.comKoszulki i kubki Raportu ➡️ https://patronite-sklep.pl/kolekcja/raport-o-stanie-swiata/ [Autopromocja]

Vad ska vi med kritiken till när apokalypsen är nära? Annina Rabe får en påminnelse om värdet av den initierade ledsagaren. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Ursprungligen publicerad 2016-12-19.Ibland i mitt yrke som litteraturkritiker kan jag undra vad jag egentligen håller på med. Vad är det här för en profession egentligen? Det är ju någonting besynnerligt och tvetydigt i denna metasysselsättning; att skriva om det som redan är skrivet. Att försöka gestalta det redan gestaltade.Den legendariska litteraturkritikern Klara Johanson skrev i en av sina krasst självhäcklande aforismer apropå kritikeryrket: "Att skriva om diktare är ju dock en malplacerad beskäftighet. Har de inte uttryckt sig? Vilken impertinens då att komma lufsande bakefter och försöka uttrycka dem en gång till!" Och hur mycket vi kritiker än med viss rätt vill framhålla kritiken som en litterär form i sig, ligger den ändå av hävd ett snäpp under den så kallade äkta varan; litteraturen, de verk vi är satta att recensera. Litteraturkritik är dessutom en aktivitet som oftast är dömd en form av misslyckande; för hur kan man någonsin kunna omfatta ett komplext verk på några ynkliga rader? Jag tror att nästan varje kritiker med någon ambitionsnivå alltid känner att hen kunde ha sagt mer, varit rättvisare.En bra litteraturkritiker bör besitta en säregen kombination av orubblig auktoritet och lyhörd ödmjukhet. Hen bör ha kunskaper nog att kunna förankra verket både i en litterär tradition och dagsaktuella tendenser. Hen ska vara en ledsagare, en introduktör, en uttolkare och sist men inte minst: en passionerad läsare med ett skarpt öga för detaljer, såväl språkliga som innehållsliga.Den typen av specialiserad kritiker är, vågar jag påstå, sakta men säkert på utdöende. Hur sällsynt den håller på att bli påminns jag om när jag läser två essäsamlingar av just sådana litteraturkritiker. Det är Madeleine Gustafsson i en samlingsvolym med namnet "Påminnelser". Och det är James Wood, som delar med sig av sin syn på litteratur och kritik i boken med den talande titeln "Så nära livet man kan komma". Det är skönlitteraturen, i Woods fall framför allt prosaberättelsen, som ligger så nära det verkliga och självupplevda man kan komma. Och kritiken tänker jag, närläsningen, är kanske i sin tur det närmaste man kan komma litteraturen utan att skriva den själv.Madeleine Gustafsson - författare, översättare och mångårig kritiker i bland annat Dagens Nyheter och Bonniers Litterära Magasin - är en av de svenska litteraturkritiker jag under många år allra helst har läst. Och när jag läser den här samlingen, ett koncentrat av texter om såväl lyrik som prosa påminns jag om varför. Det finns ett genomgående drag i Madeleine Gustafssons essäistik som jag skulle vilja beskriva som ett slags klarhet. Den rena tanken som löper genom texterna är tillgänglig utan att för den skull släppa i intellektuell skärpa eller sky abstrakta resonemang. Och Gustafssons kritik är framför allt fri från allt koketteri, från allt positionerande av det slag som gärna frodas på kultursidor. Gustafsson är öppen inför varje text hon läser, men hon gör klart att det är just texten som är i centrum. Just därför fungerar även de recensioner och essäer som har några år på nacken fortfarande så bra att läsa; de är inte överlastade av tidsmarkörer."Förståelse" är ett nyckelord som ofta återkommer i hennes texter, inte minst de som handlar om andra kritiker, som när hon skriver om Klara Johanson eller Gunnar Ekelöfs kritikergärning i BLM. I en sammanfattande text om sin egen syn på litteraturkritik skriver Gustafsson om att kritikern talar igenom verket: "Men då", skriver hon, "menar jag inte att skriva om sig själv i andras förklädnad, utan att sträcka sin egen förståelse så långt den kan nå, kasta in sin erfarenhet i ständigt nya former, tänja den, se hur långt den räcker."Just det där sista tror jag också att den brittisk-amerikanske kritikern James Wood skulle skriva under på. "Så nära livet man kan komma" är en serie personliga betraktelser över samspelet mellan liv och litteratur. Han skriver: "Att läsa romaner är att oavbrutet röra sig mellan världsliga och religiösa tillstånd, mellan vad som kunde kallas skede och form. Romanernas världsliga vilja är att vidga och förlänga livet; romanen är den stora handelsmannen när det rör sig om vardagslivets kredit och debet. Den omvandlar varje skede i våra liv till scener."James Wood är en av världens mest inflytelserika litteraturkritiker, och hans texter i framför allt the New Yorker har bidragit till stora internationella genombrott för författarskap som Karl Ove Knausgård eller Elena Ferrante. Han har så mycket rockstjärnestatus man kan få som litteraturkritiker. Men i sin syn på litteratur och kritik är han närmast en klassicist med en gedigen bildning som skiner igenom i det mesta han skriver.Att läsa och sedan skriva om det man läst handlar till stor del om seende och iakttagelser. Att kunna lyfta ut detaljer. Wood ägnar ett kapitel i sin bok åt den noggranna iakttagelsen. Det handlar inte bara om att se och lyfta fram detaljer, det handlar också om att följa med dessa iakttagelser när de ändrar form och utvecklas till något annat. Att se att en yttre iakttagelse i litteraturen samtidigt kan belysa ett inre skeende. Att följa med. Att vara följsam.När Madeleine Gustafsson i en recension av Jean Rouauds "Des hommes illustres" analyserar bokens första mening gör hon det just så grundligt och följsamt. Scenen är kort och gott en man som har klättrat upp på ett plåttak för att såga av några grenar som trasslat in sig i telefontrådar. Gustafsson kretsar först runt den yttre miljön i allt snävare cirklar, kommer sedan in på mannen, hans rörelsemönster och vad det säger om hans personlighet för att därefter göra en snygg gir in på själva prosan.Den recensionen är skriven 1993. Sedan dess har det hänt en hel del på kultursidorna. Kritik har idag allt svårare att hävda sig när kulturredaktionernas uppdrag förändrats och vidgats. Kultursidorna håller på att förvandlas till förlängda ledar- och debattsidor där samhällsdebatt och krönikor prioriteras framför ren kritik. "Jorden håller på att gå under, så vi har inte plats för kritik just nu" sa en redaktör till mig nyligen. Och ja, vem är jag att komma och hävda litteraturens, språkets och kritikens egenvärde när apokalypsen är nära?Det ställs allehanda krav på skönlitteraturen idag: den ska göra oss mer empatiska, den ska göra oss politiskt medvetna, den ska överbrygga klyftor och ge oss ett språk och den ska framför allt få oss att förstå samhället och verkligheten. Allt det där gör förstås skönlitteraturen, och det är viktigt med sådana argument när klåfingriga politiker och andra beslutsfattare vill reducera skönlitteraturens roll i skolan eller på biblioteken. Men om det är något som Gustafssons och Woods kritikböcker gör så är det att påminna om värdet av den initierade ledsagaren. Den som låter oss glänta på dörren till det där vidunderliga som är litteratur. Den som värnar om litteraturen för litteraturens egen skull, och inte för de eventuellt nyttobringande effekter den kan tänkas ha.Annina Rabelitteraturkritiker och kulturskribent Böcker som nämns i essän:Madeleine Gustafsson, Påminnelser, DaidalosJames Wood, Så nära livet man kan komma, Översättning Staffan Söderblom, Norstedts

Ibon Martín investiga la leyenda del Alma negra.Hace décadas que las minas enmudecieron en los Montes de Hierro. Pero en mitad de la noche todavía se pueden oír los lamentos de las almas que quedaron sepultadas en la roca. La aparición de Teresa Echegaray, una poderosa mujer que quería reabrir la explotación, despierta el miedo a las leyendas dormidas. Y regresa el rencor acumulado durante tantos años.Y de forma paralela, Ane Cestero, apartada de su trabajo en la comisaría, es requerida por su amiga Julia, que quiere investigar a su madre.Alma Negra es la nueva novela de uno de sus maestros del género negro.De Stephen King a García Márquez. Todos se llevaron un “no”. Una respuesta negativa. Les hicieron la cobra. Editores con poco ojo que rechazaron manuscritos de obras que luego se convirtieron en clásicas. Repasamos los casos más llamativos de ceguera editorial.Tierra feroz es la primera novela de un guionista, Jota Quijorna, que nos presenta un thriller con un protagonista de trece años, Dani Sorribes. También aquí encontramos una mina, como en la novela de Ibon Martín. Y un bosque.Y en la sección de Audiolibros, Las deudas del cuerpo, la tercera parte de la obra creada por Elena Ferrante.

Whether your holiday book wish list includes classics like The Nutcracker or works by contemporary authors like Jon Fosse and Elena Ferrante... if you want to read them in English, then you'll have to thank a translator. But Damion Searls says that the work of translating is more complicated than simply converting words from one language to another. In the latest instalment of Word Processing – our ongoing look at language – David Common speaks with the noted author and translator about his book The Philosophy of Translation, the nuance needed to make a faithful translation and what gets lost when authors outsource that work to technology.
Welcome to the FINALE of Season 12! I am so excited to say that my guest on the GWA Podcast is the acclaimed writer, Sheila Heti. Born in 1976 in Toronto, where she lives today, Heti is the author of eleven books, from novels to novellas, short stories and children's books. Most recently, her acclaimed books have included Alphabetical Diaries, that ordered a decade worth of diaries in alphabetical order; Pure Colour (2022), a novel that explores grief, art and time; Motherhood (2018), a meditation on whether or not to become a mother in a society that judges you whatever the outcome. Heti's writing is some of the most honest, thoughtful I've ever read, and throughout weaves in the broad subject of art, whether it be paintings or her protagonists' professions… Heti also wrote for the literary journal the Believer, and has conducted many long-form print interviews with writers and artists, including conversations with Joan Didion, Elena Ferrante, Agnes Varda, Sophie Calle, who are among some of the artists we are going to be, very excitingly, discussing today. -- THIS EPISODE IS GENEROUSLY SUPPORTED BY THE LEVETT COLLECTION: https://www.famm.com/en/ https://www.instagram.com/famm_mougins // https://www.merrellpublishers.com/9781858947037 Follow us: Katy Hessel: @thegreatwomenartists / @katy.hessel Sound editing by Nada Smiljanic Music by Ben Wetherfield

Between The Covers : Conversations with Writers in Fiction, Nonfiction & Poetry
Today's craft talk—by Torrey Peters on “Strategic Opacity”— was recorded at the 2024 Tin House summer writers workshop. Peters explores the elements in works of fiction that actually don't make sense—from William Shakespeare to Elena Ferrante —and how, paradoxically, it is these very elements, the unexplainable ones, that can make a work of art great. […] The post Tin House Live : Torrey Peters on Strategic Opacity appeared first on Tin House.
Quais são os autores que lhe vem à cabeça quando falamos de literatura italiana contemporânea? Tá, eu sei em quem muitos de vocês pensaram. Sim, Elena Ferrante é um nome incontornável. Falaremos sobre ela nesta edição do podcast. Mas iremos muito além de Elena. A Maria Carolina Casati é uma leitora que acompanho há algum tempo. Dentre suas iniciativas está a Encruzilinhas, que discute textos sobre negritude, gênero, feminismo e militância. A Carol está terminando seu doutorado na USP, onde desenvolve o projeto "A mulata brasiliana: escrevivência, narrativas orais e memórias de brasileiras negras na Itália que se relacionam com italianos". A partir de conceitos de gente como Conceição Evaristo que a pesquisadora se debruça sobre a atual literatura italiana, especialmente sobre a obra de Igiaba Scego. Igiaba é o ponto de partida para essa conversa não só sobre autores italianos que merecem a sua atenção, mas também sobre muitas questões relacionadas ao país de Dante. * Aqui o caminho para a newsletter da Página Cinco: https://paginacinco.substack.com/

This week we are discussing the much praised, and beloved novel, "My Brilliant Friend" by Elena Ferrante. We delve into Ferrante's mysterious identity and discuss criticism in the modern age. But mostly we discuss this brilliant, personal, and captivating novel. One of the great things about this novel is the many layers it contains and we geek out on how Ferrante uses all the tools in a writers toolbox to create a memorable novel. Finally, we discuss our sports teams and how they're disappointments often lead us to serious books. And we're using that scenario to create a reading plan for some of our longer books on our TBR. As always thanks for listening and enjoy!

If you're a reader of the New York Times – or a lover of books – you might know about the paper's project this summer counting down the top hundred books of the century so far. Number one on the list? “My Brilliant Friend” by Elena Ferrante. It is the first of four novels that tell the story of the friendship between Lila and Elena, two working class girls growing up in post-World War II Naples. In 2018 HBO adapted the series for television. Diane hosted a discussion of “My Brilliant Friend” as part of her Readers Review series back in 2015 on The Diane Rehm Show. She and her guests dug into the characters, the setting, and the mystery surrounding the author's identity. Diane's guests included Maureen Corrigan, book critic for NPR's Fresh Air, and The Nicky and Jamie Grant Distinguished Professor of the Practice in Literary Criticism at Georgetown University; Louis Bayard Author, "Roosevelt's Beast." His other books include "The Pale Blue Eye," "The School of Night" and "Mr. Timothy," a New York Times Notable Book. He teaches fiction writing at The George Washington University; and Professor of contemporary Italian culture, Georgetown University; author of "The Tigress in the Snow: Motherhood and Literature in Twentieth-Century Italy" and of the novel "Un Paese Di Carta."
This July, The New York Times Book Review published a list of The 100 Best Books of the 21st Century. The top choice was “My Brilliant Friend,” by Elena Ferrante, translated by Ann Goldstein.The book is the first novel in Ferrante's so-called Neapolitan quartet, which tracks the lifelong friendship between Lenù and Lila, two women from a rough neighborhood in Naples, Italy, even as family, relationships and work pull their lives in different directions.In this week's episode, MJ Franklin discusses the book with fellow editors Joumana Khatib, Emily Eakin and Gregory Cowles.
We're back!! Niko and Tatiana read the 2024 Booker International Longlist and Strega-Prize winning The House on Via Gemito by Domenico Starnone. We talk about memory, family, painting, and touch on Starnone's possible connection to the mysterious writer Elena Ferrante.

Alla luce del verdetto del New York Times, abbiamo chiesto ai nostri ascoltatori se effettivamente l'opera di Elena Ferrante sia per loro degna di fregiarsi di questo titolo.
Friendships can be the foundation of our earliest memories and most formative moments. But why are they often seen as secondary to romantic, or familial connection, something to age out of and take a back seat to other relationships? BFFs: The Radical Potential of Female Friendship (404 Ink, 2023) by Dr. Anahit Behrooz is an examination of the power of female friendship, not as something lesser, but as a site of radical intimacy, as told through the cultural touchstones around us. From coming-of-age tales through physical intimacy and discovering personhood to break ups and parting of ways, Dr. Behrooz considers the vast significance of our friendships through the work of Toni Morrison and Elena Ferrante, Booksmart and Grey's Anatomy, Insecure, The Virgin Suicides and beyond. To have a life rich in love is often viewed through a specific lens; BFFs shows us that friendship can offer a more expansive and emancipatory understanding of female intimacy, and can be the most important, loving relationships in our lives. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

I'm thrilled that Henriette Lazaridis is back this week to discuss her new novel, Last Days in Plaka - think The Talented Mr. Ripley by way of Elena Ferrante--it explores the lies at the heart of an old woman's identity and the desperation of a young woman's struggle to belong.
This week, we're talking Thingies with Jo Piazza, author of The Sicilian Inheritance—exactly the escapist, immersive book we want at this very moment—and its companion true-crime podcast…because this woman is one of the most ambitious storytellers you've ever encountered, ok? Also: We raise a case for cold-calling your friends, expectations free. Jo's thingies include trad wives (or maybe that's a Claire Thingie?), Oak Essentials moisture rich balm (s/o to the cleansing balm also!), Freda Salvador shoes and the Jada ballet flats in particular, The Other Two on Max (see also: The State, Party Down, and Girls 5Eva), the podcast Time Capsule: The Silver Chain. There was a lot of food talk, naturally: Jo raves about Norah Ephron's pasta alla cecca recipe, and some Philly restaurants she loves include Friday Saturday Sunday, Trattoria Carina, and Zahav.Jo's Italian heritage liaison: Laura Lee of Digging Up Roots in the Boot.Want more Jo? You are in LUCK! Her new release The Sicilian Inheritance has an Elena Ferrante meets Gabrielle Hamilton meets Liane Moriarty vibe, and it pairs perfectly with this non-fiction podcast where Jo, NBD, works to solve a family murder. And dig into her other books We Are Not Like Them, You Were Always Mine, Charlotte Walsh Likes to Win, The Knockoff, and How to Be Married. Want something to listen to?
