Book cover for Provocations: Collected Essays on Art, Feminism, Politics, Sex, and Education
Much later, I learned to deeply respect the indomitable spunk, professionalism, and craft of both Doris Day and Debbie Reynolds, but at the time, I darkly viewed them as ruthless tyrants of an ossified WASP establishment.

Daniel J. Boorstin
“This sense of time, the awareness that countless others have come before and that others will follow in endless generations, distinguishes man from other animals. With this discovery of the meaning of death—that man’s own life is limited—the life of architecture begins. And so begins man the creator’s effort to conquer time.”
Daniel J. Boorstin, The Creators: A History of Heroes of the Imagination

Daniel J. Boorstin
“The Greeks saw the advance of civilization bringing new ills. Their sour parable of technological progress was the familiar myth of Prometheus. Punished for affronting the gods by stealing fire for men’s use, Prometheus was chained to a rock so an eagle could feed on his liver, which grew back each night. According to Lucretius, necessity had led men to invent, and then inventions spawned frivolous needs that equipped and encouraged them to slaughter one another in war.”
Daniel J. Boorstin, The Creators: A History of Heroes of the Imagination

“Tutto ciò che è, è fiamma che si estinguerà nella luce della Storia; e in essa noi corriamo, cantiamo, danziamo, piangiamo. Ma non lasciarti dietro dei rimpianti – neanche se questo non portasse a nulla. Apri il tuo cuore a Sua Altezza…”
Mamoru Nagano, Five Star Stories #3

Jonathan Crary
“Because one’s bank account and one’s friendships can now be managed through identical machinic operations and gestures, there is a growing homogenization of what used to be entirely unrelated areas of experience.”
Jonathan Crary, 24/7: Late Capitalism and the Ends of Sleep

Oscar Wilde
“The only beautiful things, as somebody once said, are the things that do not concern us. As long as a thing is useful or necessary to us, or affects us in any way, either for pain or for pleasure, or appeals strongly to our sympathies, or is a vital part of the environment in which we live, it is outside the proper sphere of art. To art's subjectmatter we should be more or less indifferent. We should, at any rate, have no preferences, no prejudices, no partisan feeling of any kind. It is exactly because Hecuba is nothing to us that her sorrows are such an admirable motive for a tragedy.”
Oscar Wilde, The Decay of Lying

L'idea è di creare un gruppo di lettura per non sentirmi troppo sola nelle letture che affronto via via nella mia "spericolata vita". Una cosa senza t ...more
