Sinossi
Il Libro della jungla è opera molto nota, anche se non altrettanto letta. La sua fama si deve, in larghissima parte, alla trasposizione cinematografica disneyana. Ma rispetto al film, il libro - una raccolta di racconti solo in minima parte incentrati sulla figura di Mowgli - riserva numerose sorprese. In questa edizione, commentata in chiave massonica da Marco Rocchi, emergono aspetti legati al pensiero liberomuratorio, un pensiero che caratterizzò anche altre opere di Kipling. Il volume è arricchito da due saggi, dedicati rispettivamente al legame tra massoneria e scoutismo (a cura di Marco Rocchi) e alla fortuna editoriale dell'opera (a cura di Enrica Veterani).

We are the masters of our planet, but we are not very good masters. We are, in the blunt phrase I saw a zoologist use the other day, a plague species.

IMO, Rudyard Kipling is the worst example of the quintessential British Imperialist and Colonialist. His attitude towards India is contemptuous and condescending. As a person, I dislike him intensely. Kipling writes beautifully. His stories are simple, engaging and profound at the same time. As a wri Leggi tutto

“Welcome to the jungleWe've got fun 'n' gamesWe got everything you wantHoney, we know the names” The opening poem of The Jungle Book : “Now Rann the Kite brings home the night” etc. is much more elegant than Axl Rose’s effort, but I feel it would be much nicer for you to read it in the context of the Leggi tutto

Two weeks ago I arrived at Aberdovey, a small seaside village on the Dyfi estuary in west Wales. So to discover sun, and thus an ideal day for the beach, I needed a book. Having no luck finding a bookshop, and minus my Kindle, the young man in the pub mentioned that the RNLI were selling books. So w Leggi tutto
I read this book when I was a child and I really enjoyed the stories at the time. This book was also a favourite with my children. Wonderful classic stories. Pure nostalgia.
