Bitches, she is Madonna by Ludovico De Bonis (I Quaderni del Bardo Edizioni di Stefano Donno)
“I dedicate this book to
those who know how to wait, to those who do not stop believing in their dreams,
to those who know how to earn things with sweat and will of mind, to those who
keep smiling in hard times, to those who think that emotions and passions are
the engine of the world.”
Ludovico De Bonis
The author Ludovico De Bonis, with his book, tried to combine his passion (Madonna) with his cultural background, as an expert in Communication and Media Analyst. What makes his work outstanding compared to other works about the artist, is that none of them has neither analyzed the phenomenon from the point of view of the audience, nor focused on the artist's fandom, on her complex identity (as a woman, as a mother and as an international icon) and on the discovery that the performer artist Madonna, according to various sociologists and experts in the sector, is the emblem of popular culture.

Verso ... il Futuro: Poesia Visiva di Carlo Stasi (I Quaderni del Bardo Edizioni di Stefano Donno)
Pur se nato nel cuore dell’Europa ed imbevuto di cultura europea, Carlo
Stasi ha radici profondamente radicate nella sanguigna terra salentina.
Ha sempre amato viaggiare, spinto da un’intensa passione conoscitiva e
da una forte tensione creativa. Alla poesia ha affiancato la musica e la
pittura intrecciando sonorità e motivi grafici nelle sue opere: una
poesia “iconica”, “da vedere” per “leggere” e “riflettere”, dando
“immagine alla parola” e “parola all’immaginazione”. Corredato da
interventi critici, questo libro documenta e raccoglie 40 anni della
produzione poetica visiva edita ed inedita di questo “artista della
parola”.Con la prefazione di Lamberto Pignotti, e gli interventi critici
di Giovanni Dotoli, Maurizio Nocera, Francesco Pasca, Massimo Pasca,
Raffaele Messinese, Emilio Filieri, Mauro Marino, Paola Scialpi, Andrea
D’Urso, Giuliana Coppola, Vincenzo Guarracino, Augusto Ponzio, Luciano
Ponzio, Susan Petrilli, Salvatore Luperto, Carmen De Stasio, Antonietta
Fulvio, Paolo Vincenti, Alessandro Laporta, Mario De Marco, Chiara
Evangelista, Richard Demarco, Stefano Donno, Nicola Salvatore, Donato Di
Poce. Postfazione di Donato Di Poce

ATHANOR: The Secret Science of the Heart (I Quaderni del Bardo Edizioni di Stefano Donno)
The time of our civilisation, which is only one of the possible
civilisations, can be transcribed synthetically through the categories
of thought that specified axiologically its structure and continually
remodelled it. Passages never clearly marked, if anything connoted, by
that “barbarian residue” which, due to a certain instinctual
pertinacity, were painstakingly exceeded. The border between reality and
appearance is always very subtle, we find it so, even today in the
persistence of certain scientifically anachronistic expressions; let us
say, for example, that the sun rises and sets, instead of referring to
the horizon. We need some time to get used to something that differs
from the perception that we had of the world that is, we need time to
change.This, for what it’s worth, is what we believe. In fact, however,
it is only the persistences that weaken our conscious presence, which,
in turn, manifests itself in a wealth of forms commensurate with the
capacity we have to intuit them. Every achievement is as if a new mental
being is produced, almost incapable of empathy with the past self.
Ultimately, the shift over time determines a change of perspective, by
regressing in the memory, we lose the sharpness of the state of mind
that led to the choice or for which we risked that move. We simply
change our mind and this has the effect of no longer permitting us to be
that which we once were. It’s as if they slowly vanish, all the humours
or moods that we have experienced converge here - there is no other
time and if every shift creates a different vision of the world,
everything can be changed in a single instant.
