Story
The Betrothed is a cornerstone of Italian culture, language, and literature. Published in its final form in 1842, The Betrothed has inspired generations of Italian readers and writers. Giuseppe Verdi composed his majestic Requiem Mass in honor of Manzoni. Italo Calvino called the novel “a classic that has never ceased shaping reality in Italy” while Umberto Eco praised its author as a “most subtle critic and analyst of languages.”

Story
After the jealous tyrant Don Rodrigo foils their wedding, young Lombardian peasants Lucia and Lorenzo must separate and flee for their safety. Their difficult path to matrimony takes place against the turbulent backdrop of the Thirty Years War, where lawlessness and exploitation are at their height. Lucia takes refuge in a convent, where she is later abducted and taken on a nightmarish journey to a sinister castle, while Lorenzo goes to Milan, where he witnesses famine, riots, and plague - all evoked through meticulous description and with stunning immediacy.

Story
Nell’anno della celebrazione del 150° anniversario dell’unità d’Italia il CD contiene una scelta di testi significativi che intendono ricordare che la poesia, nel corso dei secoli, ha cantato l’identità italiana e l’appartenenza alla patria. Il senso dell’Italia, presente molto prima della sua unità politica, attraversa i secoli e giunge fino ad oggi: la voce dei poeti, come documento e come testimonianza, costituisce un filo rosso dal mondo romano fino al Novecento.

Story
La raccolta degli "Inni sacri" sarebbe dovuta essere composta, secondo le originali intenzioni dell'autore, di dodici testi ("Il Natale", "L'Epifania", "La Passione", "La Risurrezione", "L'Ascensione", "La Pentecoste", "Il Corpo del Signore", "La Cattedra di San Pietro", "L'Assunzione", "Il Nome di Maria", "Ognissanti", "I Morti") riguardanti le principali festività liturgiche del cattolicesimo. Tuttavia, egli concluse solo cinque inni ("La Resurrezione", "Il nome di Maria", "Il Natale", "La Passione", "La Pentecoste") e ne lasciò incompleto un sesto ("Ognissanti").

Story
Citando sus palabras "tragedias de horrores y escenas de maldad, con intermedios de hazanas virtuosas". Pero lo grande de la novela, es su riqueza argumental, que tiene como fondo la Guerra de los Treinta Anos y la dominacion espanola de Italia, ademas del interes que tienen las peripecias de los protagonistas Renzo y Lucia, que solo pueden casarse despues de vicisitudes sin cuento.

Story
La vicenda narra del processo intentato a Milano, durante la terribile peste del 1630, contro due presunti untori, ritenuti responsabili del contagio pestilenziale tramite misteriose sostanze, in seguito ad un'accusa - infondata - da parte di una "donnicciola" del popolo, Caterina Rosa. L'insieme di questa storia di iniquità e violenza del potere, di dolore e di vergogna delle vittime, conferisce all'umana amministrazione della giustizia, smarrito ogni senso religioso, ogni riferimento ideale alla giustizia superiore di "chi solo sa", un che di orribilmente fragile e precario.
