Story0
Award-winning narrator Mike Vendetti reads "Ode to a Nightingale", a personal poem that describes Keats's journey into a state of negative capability. The tone of the poem rejects the optimistic pursuit of pleasure found within Keats's earlier poems and, instead, explores the themes of nature, transience, and mortality, the latter being particularly relevant to Keats.

Story2
ll fuoco che ti porti dentro racconta la vita e la morte di Angela, una donna dal carattere impossibile. Una donna che incarna in maniera emblematica tutti gli orrori dell’Italia, nessuno escluso: "il qualunquismo, il razzismo, il classismo, l’egoismo, l’opportunismo, il trasformismo, la mezza cultura peggiore dell’ignoranza, il rancore..." Questa donna era la madre dell’autore. Il romanzo è un’indagine nella vita, nelle passioni e negli odi di una donna, alla ricerca di una spiegazione possibile. La forma è quella della commedia, il contenuto quello della tragedia.

Annes dreijähriger Aufenthalt in Summerside Anne Shirley macht ihre ersten Karriereschritte als Rektorin der Summerside Highschool. Dass man in einer solchen Position nicht immer von allen geliebt wird, ist eine Erfahrung, die sie bitter zu spüren bekommt. Vor allem der im Ort sehr mächtige Pringles-Familienclan macht ihr zu schaffen. Aber Anne wäre nicht Anne, wenn sie allen Sorgen nicht mit viel Optimismus, Mut und einer kräftigen Portion Humor begegnen würde. Eine heitere und lebensbejahende Geschichte voller Schwung.

Story12
Christopher Marlowe's play about a man who sells his soul to the devil is not only one of the first of many works to explore this theme but also one of the most startling. Eschewing the usual division of the drama into acts, it presents the story of Faustus' fall in a series of apparently disconnected scenes. However, the integrity of the drama is maintained by the remorseless unraveling of Faustus' fortunes as he approaches his inevitable damnation.

Story0
The lyrical ballad The Lady of Shalott is one of Tennyson's best-known and best-loved poems. It is based on the story of Elaine of Astolat, a figure from Arthurian legend, who dies from her unrequited love for Sir Lancelot. The subject matter provided inspiration for many of the Pre-Raphaelite painters. Tennyson published two versions of the poem, both of which are included in this recording. The first was written in 1832, and the second—the better-known of the two versions—in 1842.

Jared Lobdell examines Tolkien's methods and his worldview by following the thread of three influences: the Edwardian adventure story, the science of philology, or comparative languages, and Roman Catholic theology. The "Edwardian mode" of adventure story ( King Solomon's Mines, The Lost World) is one in which a small group of Englishmen make an expedition to foreign parts and find supernatural terrors awaiting them, finally returning home, mission accomplished.

These poems have racked up hundreds of thousands of views online, lodging themselves in the hearts and minds of readers and audiences alike. His particular gift is for the many kinds of music a line can contain.
