Story
The Fable of the Bees—a satirical poem, prose discussion, three essays and six dialogues completed in 1729—exposes human vices but defends them as a necessity within a wealthy society. Mandeville’s bees thrive until they start living by honesty and virtue… then they are impoverished. Mandeville did not play by the rules: he satirized the sins of society but also ridiculed the widespread hypocrisy of deploring these sins whilst reaping their benefits. He and his work were attacked for the rest of the century.

Story
In 1892, Gertrude Bell visited Persia (now Iran) shortly after the appointment of her uncle, Sir Frank Lascelles, as British minister in Tehran. Three years later came Persian Pictures, Gertrude Bell’s first written work, which presents a series of vivid sketches of Persian culture and society at the time. Bell explores various cities and landscapes, and encounters local characters along the way, providing a unique perspective on Persian life and customs.

Story
In Viaggio a Ixtlan, il capitolo finale della trilogia dedicata agli insegnamenti di don Juan Matus, Castaneda prosegue il proprio percorso tra i misteri dell’antica cultura sciamanica. Un racconto illuminante, che ci permette di ripercorrere l’ultimo apprendistato dell’autore: il viaggio destinato a portarlo a percepire finalmente l’universo quale è, senza il filtro delle convenzioni. È giunto il momento di accostare, e fare proprio, un concetto fondamentale, che sta alla base del cammino verso una comprensione profonda dell’esistenza: la differenza tra il "guardare" quotidiano e il "vedere" del saggio.

Story
'Indian-Australian' is not a one-size-fits-all descriptor. Given the depth and richness of diversity of the Indian subcontinent, it is fitting that its diaspora is similarly varied. Growing Up Indian in Australia reflects and celebrates this vibrant diversity. It features contributions from Australian-Indian writers, both established and emerging, who hail from a wide range of backgrounds, religions and experiences. This colorful, energetic anthology offers reflections on identity, culture, family, food and expectations, ultimately revealing deep truths about both Australian and Indian life.
