Nearly six hundred years ago, a short, genial, cannily alert man in his late 30s took a very old manuscript off a library shelf, saw with excitement what he had discovered, and ordered that it be copied. That book was the last surviving manuscript of an ancient Roman philosophical epic by Lucretius—a beautiful poem containing the most dangerous ideas: that the universe functioned without the aid of gods, that religious fear was damaging to human life, and that matter was made up of very small particles.

Juan Valera defendía que el arte es desinteresado. Empeñado en atacar tanto a los románticos como a los naturalistas, nunca se adscribió a ningún movimiento esteticista, como el simbolismo, que bajo la insignia de l'art pour l'art, intentaba renovar las tendencias artísticas en el cambio de siglo.

In this landmark study of Italy from the 14th through the early 16th centuries, Swiss historian Jacob Burckhardt chronicles the rise of Florence and Venice as powerful city-states, the breakup of the medieval worldview that came with the rediscovery of Greek and Roman culture, and the new emphasis on the role of the individual. All these, Burckhardt explains, went hand in hand with the explorations of science and the more naturalistic depiction of the world in art and literature.

L'Italia non nasce da una guerra o dalla diplomazia; nasce dai versi di Dante. Non solo.
