"Parlare con un sessista è come giocare a scacchi con un piccione". La maggior parte delle volte non siamo noi a scegliere le parole che usiamo: il nostro linguaggio, fatto per lo più di stereotipi, modi di dire e luoghi comuni, deriva da una cultura patriarcale preesistente a noi. In questo audiolibro Lorenzo Gasparrini analizza e studia le forme del linguaggio sessista, da dove hanno tratto origine e come sono cambiate negli anni, e in che modo i femminismi abbiano portato avanti su questo tema le battaglie per la parità.

In "La stella nera", Gary Lachman offre una panoramica sulle radici dei movimenti di pensiero occulto che hanno dato forma al fenomeno Trump (dal pensiero positivo al New Thought, dal Tradizionalismo di Guénon ed Evola, a oscuri personaggi dell'esoterismo francese).

Quella che leggerete è una storia piccola, quasi invisibile. È la storia della mia amicizia con il mio maestro, Giovanni Testori (1923-1993). Se la propongo ai lettori è per due ragioni: la prima è perché essa apre una finestra su uno dei rapporti fondamentali che legano le persone tra loro, il rapporto maestro-discepolo. La seconda è perché Giovanni Testori si è situato in controtendenza rispetto alla grande maggioranza degli intellettuali del suo tempo, che rifuggivano l'idea di far da maestri a qualcuno.
