William Wordsworth (1770-1850) was born in Cockermouth, in the Lake District. His Lyrical Ballads, written in collaboration with Coleridge, was published in 1798, and shortly afterwards he settled in Dove Cottage, Grasmere, with his sister Dorothy. Inspired in his early manhood by the French Revolution, he grew disillusioned with revolutionary politics and in later life became decidedly conservative. He left a vast body of work, ranging from delicately simple lyrics to deeply meditative odes.

Hero and Leander is a Greek myth concerning the tragic story of two lovers. One was a priestess of Aphrodite who lived in a tower in Sestos, and the other a young man from Abydos on the opposite side of the strait.

És la tercera peça de la trilogia mestra d'Àngel Guimerà: després de presentar el proletariat urbà a Maria Rosa i el rural a Terra baixa, el dramaturg retrata el món mariner, amb la barreja de minuciós realisme i xardorós romanticisme que el caracteritza. Els poderosos protagonistes (l'Àgata, en Pere Màrtir, la Mariona) són envoltats per un cor de personatges aparentment secundaris que representen la comunitat, l'opinió pública, la caixa de ressonància que amplifica i distorsiona els conflictes i en precipita el tràgic desenllaç.

Paradiso is the third and final part of The Divine Comedy, Dante's epic poem describing man's progress from hell to salvation. In it, the author progresses through nine concentric spheres of heaven. Corresponding with medieval astronomy, the Moon, Mercury, Venus, the Sun, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn deal with the four cardinal virtues Prudence, Fortitude, Justice, and Temperance. The remaining two spheres are the fixed stars and the Primum Mobile, containing the purely virtuous and the angels, followed by the Empyrean, or God itself.
