"Sola pushes past the limits of human experience to tell a story of instinct and earth-time that is irresistible in its jagged glory." - C Pam Zhang, author of How Much of These Hills is Gold When Domenec - mountain-dweller, father, poet, dreamer - dies suddenly, struck by lightning, he leaves behind two small children, Mia and Hilari, to grow up wild among the looming summits of the Pyrenees and the ghosts of the Spanish civil war. But then Hilari dies too, and his sister is forced to face life's struggles and joys alone. As the years tumble by, the inhabitants of the mountain - human, animal and other - come together in a chorus of voices to bear witness to the sorrows of one family, and to the savage beauty of the landscape. This remarkable English-language debut is lyrical, mythical, elemental, and ferociously imaginative.
For over a thousand years, Eastern Christendom had as its center the second capital of the Roman Empire-Constantinople, the New Rome,or Byzantium. The geographical division between the Eastern and Western Churches was only one manifestation of deeper rifts, characterized by a long history of conflicts, suspicions, and misunderstandings. Although the art, monasticism, and spirituality of Byzantium have come to be recognized as inspirational and influential in the shaping of Eastern European civilization, and of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance as well, the West has been in the main ignorant of the historical evolution and the doctrinal significance of Byzantine theology.Here, for the first time in English, is presented a synthesis of Byzantine Christian thought. The reader is guided through its complexities to an understanding of Byzantium: its view of man and his destiny of deification; its ability to transcend the Western captivity; its survival under quite adverse historical circumstances.In the end, he may well find himself receptive to the basic positions of Byzantine thought, which have attained, in this time of need for the reintegration of Christianity itself, a surprising, contemporary relevance.

Il catalogo Caravaggio 2025, edito da Marsilio Arte e curato da Francesca Cappelletti e Maria Cristina Terzaghi, accompagna l’omonima mostra allestita a Palazzo Barberini dalle Gallerie Nazionali d’Arte Antica in collaborazione con Galleria Borghese (7 marzo – 6 luglio 2025), un progetto tra i più importanti e ambiziosi dedicati a Michelangelo Merisi detto Caravaggio (1571-1610). Riunendo alcune delle opere più celebri, l’esposizione vuole offrire una nuova e approfondita riflessione sulla rivoluzione artistica e culturale di Caravaggio, esplorando per la prima volta in un contesto così ampio l’innovazione che introdusse nel panorama culturale, religioso e sociale del suo tempo. Il volume illustra gli snodi biografici e gli sviluppi dello stile dell’artista attraverso saggi redatti da studiosi che, in ambito internazionale, hanno maggiormente lavorato su questi temi. Il catalogo si apre con il saggio di Keith Christiansen che traccia la parabola artistica del grande maestro, mentre i contributi delle due curatrici, Maria Cristina Terzaghi e Francesca Cappelletti, si concentrano sull’arrivo del grande maestro a Roma e sul collezionismo delle sue opere da parte delle grandi famiglie romane. Giuseppe Porzio ripercorre gli anni meridionali dell’artista, tra Napoli, Malta e la Sicilia; Alessandro Zaccuri propone una riflessione sul legame di Caravaggio con la spiritualità del suo tempo; Gianni Papi affronta uno degli argomenti più dibattuti, ovvero la ritrattistica – vera o presunta – del Merisi; Francesca Curti presenta, a partire da documenti d’epoca, le figure femminili ritratte dall’artista; Claudio Strinati e Stefano Causa affrontano un excursus storico delle mostre dedicate a Caravaggio e la sua fortuna critica, a partire dalla famosa mostra di Milano del 1951 che di fatto fa riscoprire l’artista dopo secoli di oblio; chiude Rossella Vodret con un’attenta analisi sulla tecnica esecutiva dell’artista. Le opere in mostra – ventiquattro e tutte di mano del Merisi – vengono analizzate attraverso schede dettagliate e approfondite che danno conto dei principali problemi critici, attributivi e di datazione. L’intero catalogo è illustrato con ricchezza di dettagli e le immagini coprono quasi interamente la produzione del maestro; completa il volume un’ampia bibliografia.
