Le onzième volume des Metamorfosi dei Lumi explore le rôle crucial que la période de tournant des Lumières (1780-1820) joue dans la définition du concept moderne d’émotion. La dimension émotionnelle ne peut plus être étudiée dans ces années de manière abstraite, théorique, comme le demandaient les traités des passions du xviie siècle. Au contraire, cette dimension doit être inscrite dans l’expérience concrète. Les émotions naissent et se développent à travers un véritable choc, qui affecte de multiples niveaux d’investigation: à partir des relations interpersonnelles, dans lesquelles naissent et prennent forme les passions, jusqu’à la dimension publique, dans laquelle elles se configurent comme un ciment pour le lien social et un facteur de solidarité.

This remarkable book is the most ambitious work on mythology since that of the renowned Mircea Eliade, who all but single-handedly invented the modern study of myth and religion. Focusing on the oldest available texts, buttressed by data from archeology, comparative linguistics and human population genetics, Michael Witzel reconstructs a single original African source for our collective myths, dating back some 100,000 years. Identifying features shared by this "Out of Africa" mythology and its northern Eurasian offshoots, Witzel suggests that these common myths -- recounted by the communities of the "African Eve" - are the earliest evidence of ancient spirituality. Moreover these common features, Witzel shows, survive today in all major religions. Witzel's book is an intellectual hand grenade that will doubtless generate considerable excitement - and consternation - in the scholarly community. Indeed, everyone interested in mythology will want to grapple with Witzel's extraordinary hypothesis about the spirituality of our common ancestors, and to understand what it tells us about our modern cultures and the way they are linked at the deepest level. -- Publisher description

"Pusterla is a contemporary Swiss poet who writes in Italian. This volume is a selection from Pusterla's six most recent books of poetry, published in Italian. The poems create a solid sense of place-mountains, lakes, streams, villages, occasionally a city. They move from precise and delicate observations of creatures, plants, and atmosphere to harshly historical and sociological pieces, wounded by Italy's past and present. They find striking and unpredictable ways into their subjects, often ending on a surprising, crystallized image. And, in the series editors' words, "the translations compel throughout- through their cadence, pacing, assonance, and tactful alliteration-their texture and their touch. The effect of the whole-of the supple verse renderings and the prose poetry- is of lively variety in theme, point of view, and form, and Pusterla/Schutt in this manuscript emerges as an authentic, original, passionate albeit subtle voice.""--
