Sarah Bosetti hat einen Weg gefunden, die Demokratie zu retten: mit Poesie gegen Populismus! Wohin man schaut: Weltuntergang. Doch Klimawandel, Krieg und Krisen wären zu meistern, wenn die Menschen ihnen mit ehrlicher Vernunft begegnen würden. Im Kampf gegen Fake News, Diskriminierung und Diskursverschiebung nimmt Sarah Bosetti sich einige der schönsten, schlimmsten oder absurdesten populistischen Aussagen bekannter Persönlichkeiten vor – von Alice Schwarzer über Olaf Scholz bis Wladimir Putin – und beantwortet sie mit klugen, bissigen und witzigen Gedichten.

Long before Amelia Earhart became a superstar, she was a girl who longed to touch the stars. But the dresses women had to wear at the time made those dreams seem almost impossible.

Nice women never wore makeup. Even the word was taboo in polite society—until Max Factor entered the scene. Born in Poland in 1877, Factor worked as a beautician for the Russian royal family, the Romanovs. In 1904, he fled to America, where he opened a cosmetics store in Los Angeles. Creating makeup originally for silent films, then the talkies, and, ultimately, color motion pictures, Factor designed looks for Katharine Hepburn, Rita Hayworth, Bette Davis, and countless other beauties of the day. Soon women everywhere wanted to look like their favorite glamorous stars, and Factor was there to help, bringing his innovative cosmetics to the general public.

And he took sustained inspiration from the isms of art - past and present. In the thirties he photographed costumes by Dali and used props from Giacometti furniture. Dali designed a set for a photograph for Horst to take for American Vogue, with dresses by Hattie Carnegie.

Questa è una raccolta di due testi, di Ovidio e di Catulle Mendès, che l'editore ha sottotitolato come “fisiologia comparata degli amori degli antichi romani e dei parigini moderni”, affidando la prefazione dell'opera appunto ad un fisiologo, il medico e scienziato Paolo Mantegazza. Ma è inutile dire che l'accenno alla medicina è volutamente paradossale, tanto il celebrato amore terreno sia impenetrabile agli innumerevoli sforzi di razionalizzarlo.
