In June 1862, Dostoevsky left St. Petersburg on his first excursion to Western Europe. Ostensibly making the trip to consult Western specialists about his epilepsy, he also wished to see the source of the Western ideas he believed were corrupting Russia. Over the course of his journey he visited a number of major cities, including Berlin, Paris, London, Florence, Milan, and Vienna. His impressions on what he saw, Winter Notes on Summer Impressions, were first published in the February 1863 issue of "Vremya" (Time), the periodical he edited, and are collected here.

Fortunately, his treatment was showing some improvement, and so, he wrote, “These extra months are a luxury that I hope to have put to good use.”

Chapters from My Autobiography is a collection of twenty-five pieces of autobiographical work published by American author Mark Twain in the North American Review between September 1906 and December 1907.

C'è una linea che lega i percorsi di Anna Maria Ortese, Nikolaj Gogol', James Joyce o Jean Rhys quando, lontani dalla propria terra, si confrontavano con la scrittura e la creatività. Di questi precedenti si puntella il percorso di una scrittrice italiana residente all'estero, nel tentativo di venir fuori dal dilemma mentale di cui si sente prigioniera: voler ritornare, ma senza riuscirci. Una riflessione particolarmente significativa in un mondo ossessionato da un'unicità geografica costruita con l'idea di non dover mai perdere l'orientamento.

It will come as a surprise to some that the greater part of Jorge Luis Borges's extraordinary writing was not in the genres of fiction or poetry, but in the various forms of non-fiction prose. His thousands of pages of essays, reviews, prologues, lectures, and notes on politics and culture—though revered in Latin America and Europe as among his finest work—have scarcely been translated into English.

En este lúcido ensayo, el erudito ensayista francés analiza la obra de Élisabeth Louise Vigee Le Brun, una de las pintoras más brillantes e ignoradas de las últimas decadas prerrevolucionarias en Francia. Retratista magistral "capaz de conjugar el parecido fiel con la idealización im- palpable", Vigee Le Brun fue la aliada a la que escogió María Antonieta para ofrecer una imagen humana y digna de ese mundus muliebris que ella representaba y que, supuestamente, corrompía el prestigio y la autoridad de los monarcas a fuerza de afeminarlos.
