Story
Le idee sbagliate sono sempre pericolose, ma ne esistono due che sembrano resistere nel tempo e, se combinate, costituiscono una miscela deflagrante. Sono la convinzione che esistano lingue migliori di altre, lingue banali e lingue geniali, lingue musicali e lingue stonate, e quella che la realtà si veda in modo diverso secondo la lingua che si parla, come se potesse condizionare i nostri sensi e i nostri ragionamenti. Andrea Moro affronta questi pregiudizi, e ne scopre i limiti, con ogni arma a disposizione: dalla filosofia, alla linguistica, alle neuroscienze.

Story
"Ciao". Una delle nostre parole più famose nel mondo origina dal veneziano sciavo, nel senso di schiavo, usato per salutare qualcuno ponendosi al suo servizio, come a dire Servo vostro! Si è affermata come saluto confidenziale tra Otto e Novecento, per poi diventare di uso generalizzato in tempi più recenti. È una parola-azione: ciao "si dice" e "si fa". La sua fortuna internazionale passa attraverso il made in ltaly, ma è debitrice anche di episodi particolari connessi a canzoni o film di successo.

Story
C'est en linguiste de terrain que Claude Hagège a abordé le champ des langues. Son intérêt pour leur réalité vécue, leur chair vive et le terreau d'origine de la parole humaine en font un adepte d'une approche empirico-inductive, aboutissant ainsi à des conclusions d'ordre général à partir d'une matière concrète.

Story
Insulting the president is an American tradition. From Washington to Trump, presidents have been called "lazy," "feeble," "pusillanimous," and more. Our leaders have been derided as "ignoramuses," "idiots," "morons," and "fatheads," and have been compared to all manner of animals - worms and whales and hyenas, sad jellyfish, strutting crows, lap dogs, reptiles, and monkeys. Political insults tell us what we value in our leaders by showing how we devalue them. In Dangerous Crooked Scoundrels, linguist Edwin Battistella collects over 500 insults aimed at American presidents.

Story
A charming but ineffective prince takes the road less travelled after a hunt, setting in motion events that result in him losing his wife and his kingdom of Grunewald in under a week. The plot is thick with disreputable characters (even the prince) as well as court intrigue, treachery, and deceit...but in the hands of master storyteller Robert Louis Stevenson, these larger-than-life characters are delightful, and the almost-serious events become part of a lighthearted and sweet fairy tale complete with a happy ending.
