In doing so, he discovers that the Lord's Prayer is the best summation of all that Christ taught in the Gospels. - Summary by KHand

The Douay Rheims New Testament, published in 1582, is a translation of St Jerome's Latin Vulgate which dates from the fourth century. It influenced production of the King James version of the Bible to come some years afterward, while being the only Roman Catholic authorized vernacular scriptures up until the middle twentieth century. Although updated linguistically in the 18th and 19th centuries to provide easier understanding by the laity and reduce its use of Latinized words, it strove to be faithful to the original translation. The work's importance is that it remains the scriptural texts ...

Quevedo ocupa un lugar destacadísimo en la literatura española y mundial gracias a esa "universalidad castellana del poeta del Siglo de Oro" como dijo Jorge Luis Borges. Retrató como nadie la condición humana a lo largo de su extensísima y variada producción. Desde los oropeles y riquezas de la corte en la que sirvió en posición muy próxima al rey, hasta los orines y sordidez de las tabernas, prisión y destierro que sufrió en su ajetreada e intensa vida. En este homenaje recopilamos composiciones muy diversas referidas a aspectos filosóficos como la vida, la muerte, el paso del ...

The Divine Comedy (in Italian, Divina Commedia, or just La commedia or Comedia) is an epic poem written by Dante Alighieri in the first decades of the 14th Century, during his exile from his native Florence. Considered the most important work of Italian literature, the poem has also has enormous historical influence on western literature and culture more generally.

In un teatro, in cui si sta provando una rappresentazione, irrompono sei "personaggi" che dotati di vita reale cercano un autore che gli permetta di realizzare e rappresentare il loro dramma. Quest'opera teatrale fu rappresentata per la prima volta il 9 maggio 1921 al teatro Valle di Roma (dunque nel 2021 ricorre il centesimo anniversario), ma in quell'occasione ebbe un esito tempestoso, perché molti spettatori contestarono la rappresentazione, sorpresi dalla novità della stessa che rappresenta il teatro nel teatro e uno dei primi esempi di teatro dell’assurdo. Successivamente l’opera ...

These theories were later elaborated in Volume 1 of Capital, ...
