Story
Fin 1902, un jeune homme de 20 ans envoie ses essais poétiques à Rainer Maria Rilke et lui demande de les juger. Une correspondance s'établit entre les deux hommes. Dix lettres constituent ce recueil, publié en 1929, après la mort de Rilke. "Vous me demandez si vos vers sont bons... Votre regard est tourné vers le dehors ; c'est cela qu'il ne faut plus faire. Personne ne peut vous apporter conseil ou aide, personne. Il n'est qu'un seul chemin."

Story
"Chère Maître", c'est en ces termes que Gustave Flaubert s'adresse à George Sand. Au fil de la correspondance qu'ils échangèrent, de 1866 à 1876, se révèlent deux conceptions du monde, deux esthétiques, deux tempéraments. La générosité et l'attention aux autres de George Sand et l'esprit torturé et solitaire de Gustave Flaubert. L'amitié forte et durable qui les unira ne sera interrompue que par la mort de George Sand. Cette correspondance, belle d'intelligence, pose sur la société du XIXe siècle, un regard d'une grande pertinence.

Story
Street-smart, wickedly funny, piercingly perceptive, and eloquent enough to win a Pulitzer Prize, Mike Royko continues to have legions of devoted fans who still wonder "what Royko would have said" about some outrageous piece of news. One thing he hardly ever wrote or talked about, though, was his private life, especially the time he shared with his first wife, Carol. She was the love of his life, and her premature death at the age of 44 shook him to his soul.

Story
Die Erzählung "Arme Leute" schildert die intensive Brieffreundschaft zwischen einem älteren Mann und einer deutlich jüngeren Frau. Man schätzt sich so sehr, dass persönliche Probleme besprochen werden und man sich gegenseitig bei der Lösung der selbigen beisteht. Die Unterstützung füreinander grenzt an Selbstaufopferung. Man ist sich im Laufe der Zeit immer nähergekommen und hofft jeweils auf das Lebensglück des anderen. Aus heiterem Himmel wird der Frau ein Heiratsantrag von einer unbekannten Person unterbreitet.

Story
Union General William Tecumseh Sherman came right through her yard on their march to the sea in 1864, just as they had other plantations. But the widow mistress of Georgia's Burge Plantation was no typical southern belle. She was a Maine-born transplant with 100 slaves. Here, in Dolly Sumner Lunt's own words, is a description of those days as she watched everything she had and believed in being threatened by an army she described as invaders.

Victory and defeat, love and loss are the prevalent realities of Letters from the Greatest Generation, a remarkable and frank collection of World War II letters penned by American men and women serving overseas. Here, the hopes and dreams of the greatest generation fill each minute, and their voices ring loud and clear. "It's all part of the game. But it's bloody and rough," wrote one soldier to his wife. "Wearing two stripes now and proud as an old cat with five kittens," marked another.

In this series of conversations, John Buffalo Mailer, 27, poses a series of questions to his father, challenging the reflections and insights of the man who has dominated and defined much of American letters for the past sixty years.

Johann Peter Eckermann war einer der engsten Vertrauten Goethes: Zwischen 1823 und 1832 führte er zahlreiche Gespräche mit dem alten Dichterfürsten, die er anschließend in einem umfangreichen und vielbeachteten Werk zusammenstellte und kommentierte. Darin zeichnet Eckermann anhand ihrer Unterhaltungen über Kunst, Wissenschaft und das Leben ein messerscharfes Bild von Goethe: als "vielschichtigen Diamanten, der nach jeder Richtung eine andere Farbe spiegelt".

La Correspondance de Marcel Proust avec sa mère constitue à la fois une véritable biographie de l'écrivain, mais aussi et surtout une porte ouverte sur tous les éléments d'une vie sublimée par l'œuvre à la "Recherche du temps perdu", où on retrouve le narrateur sous un aspect parfois drôle, et souvent provocateur. La sélection de lettres que proposent les Éditions Thélème dresse le portrait vif d'un auteur pour qui "la littérature, c'est la vie".

Ne crois pas, ne crois pas, Alfred, que je puisse être heureuse avec la pensée d'avoir perdu ton cœur. Que j'aie été ta maîtresse ou ta mère, peu importe. Que je t'aie inspiré de l'amour ou de l'amitié ; que j'aie été heureuse ou malheureuse avec toi, tout cela ne change rien à l'état de mon âme à présent. Je sais que je t'aime et c'est tout. Veiller sur toi, te préserver de tout mal, de toute contrariété, t'entourer de distractions et de plaisirs, voilà tout le besoin et le regret que je sens depuis que je t'ai perdu. George Sand à Alfred de Musset, Venise, le 15 avril 1834

Quand on enferme la vérité sous terre, elle s'y amasse, elle y prend une force telle d'explosion, que, le jour où elle éclate, elle fait tout sauter avec elle. On verra bien si l'on ne vient pas de préparer, pour plus tard, le plus retentissant des désastres. Zola publie en 1898 l'article "J'accuse !" dans "L'Aurore", pour dénoncer l'incroyable erreur judiciaire portée à l'encontre d'Alfred Dreyfus.

Story
"Lettres à un jeune poète" regroupe les correspondances qu'échangèrent Rainer Maria Rilke et son élève Kappu entre 1903 et 1908. Rilke a alors 27 ans, mais sa démarche est tellement détachée des velléités d'un "jeune poète", qu'on le croirait déjà revenu d'une longue habitude. Aux envies d'honneur, il répond par la nécessité de créer. Il préconise la solitude et l'introspection et pose au jeune Kappu cette question essentielle : "devriez-vous mourir s'il vous était interdit d'écrire ?"

Story
"L'intranquillité" de Fernando Pessoa met en scène les différents hétéronymes que l'auteur avait inventés pour se permettre des styles d'écriture divers, voire opposés. Ces personnages prennent une certaine consistance dans ce journal intime qui mêle réalité vécue et réalité littéraire. Écrit à partir de 1913 et jusqu'à la mort de Pessoa en 1935, ce texte est à la fois préoccupé, libre et poétique.

Caterina da Siena (1347-1380) fu dichiarata prima santa nel 1461 e poi Dottore della Chiesa nel 1970. È compatrona d'Italia e d'Europa. Caterina, pressoché analfabeta, veniva aiutata nelle sue opere di carità da un gruppo di uomini e donne, fratelli spirituali, detti la "Bella Brigata". A questi stessi dettava le sue lettere, spesso dettandole contemporaneamente a più "scrivani". Scrisse circa 380 lettere, durante gli ultimi dieci anni della sua vita.
