Story2
The poem "Song of Myself" by Walt Whitman first appeared in his 1855 volume Leaves of Grass. "Song of Myself" is written in Whitman’s signature free verse style. The "I" of the narrator should not be confused with the person of the historical Walt Whitman, as the first-person persona is portrayed as having transcended the conventional boundaries of self. Most critics consider "Song of Myself" as the core of Whitman’s poetic vision, and it remains one of the most acclaimed of all American poems.

Story2
Vis and Ramin is one of the world's great love stories. It was the first major Persian romance, written between 1050 and 1055 in rhyming couplets. This remarkable work has now been superbly translated into heroic couplets (the closest metrical equivalent of the Persian) by the poet and scholar Dick Davis. Vis and Ramin had immense influence on later Persian poetry and is very probably also the source for the tale of Tristan and Isolde, which first appeared in Europe about a century later.

Ce chef-d'œuvre du théâtre populaire valut à son auteur une gloire immédiate. Le soir de la représentation générale, c'est un déluge d'applaudissements qui appellent Edmond Rostand sur scène. Ce succès ne s'est jamais démenti et Cyrano de Bergerac, héros tragique et attachant, est entré dans le patrimoine universel. Peut-être parce qu'il incarne superbement un mythe bien ancien : celui de l'amour et du bonheur impossible.

Los dos volúmenes que componen el poema épico Martín Fierro son la culminación del género gauchesco y el máximo exponente de la literatura argentina a nivel mundial. A través de la narración de las peripecias del héroe - el gaucho Fierro, uno de los personajes más vitales, brutales y contradictorios de las letras nacionales - José Hernández pone en evidencia la cruda realidad a la que se veían enfrentados los hombres del siglo XIX enviados a la frontera a luchar contra los indios y denuncia los abusos de poder por parte de un Estado corrupto y arbitrario.

La trama dell' Orlando Furioso è un grandioso susseguirsi di duelli e battaglie, di incontri imprevisti, di mostri e di magie, di castelli incantati e sterminati viaggi fin sulla luna. Il fascino di questo poema non risiede soltanto nel vertiginoso ritmo di avventure che vi sono narrate, ma anche dalla continua e naturale mescolanza fra realtà e sogno. Nel groviglio di storie che compongono il poema ritroviamo i temi dell'amicizia e dell'inganno, della fedeltà e della infedeltà, della lealtà e del tradimento, della prodezza e della superbia.
