This week’s discounted eBook offer is the newly-published Best of EasyItalianNews.com 2023-2024, along with five previous years of EasyItalianNews memories.

The newest one is 30% off the usual price, the others are 50% discounted. You can find them all here, or click below for whichever year or years you’d like to re-live:

• Best of EasyItalianNews.com 2018-2019
• Best of EasyItalianNews.com 2019-2020
• Best of EasyItalianNews.com 2020-2021
• Best of EasyItalianNews.com 2021-2022
• Best of EasyItalianNews.com 2022-2023
• Best of EasyItalianNews.com 2023-2024

Unlike our usual ‘easy reader’ offers, these titles have no particular level, and no audio (though all the FREE material on the EasyItalianNews.com website does.)

That’s because the purpose of the ‘Best of’ collections is to motivate students of Italian to read, or re-read.

The text is not a story, as most of our ‘easy readers’ are, there’s no beginning or end, just a collecton of articles from the year that we thought you might enjoy seeing again, or for the first time if you’re not a long-term EIN fan.

As with all our ebooks there are free samples available for you to download (on the product pages, see the links above for all years.) So why not download a few and browse?? Just dip in. You’re sure to find something to read.

N.b. EasyItalianNews.com is funded by donations (see who donated here). All past and recent donors should have already been emailed a link to download a free copy of this latest ebook (as a ‘thank you’), so needn’t buy a copy!

That was last week sometime. So if you ever helped the EIN team out with a cash gift, check your emails carefully for a message from info@easyitaliannews.com. If you don’t see it (check your junk/spam, too), write to the EIN team on that address ( info@easyitaliannews.com ).

A selection of articles from EasyItalianNews.com, July 2023 – June 2024

This week’s half-price eBook ‘easy reader’ offer is the B2/C1 (upper-intermediate/advanced) level ‘Ashraf, l’arciere dell’imperatore’, an original story that will keep you turning the pages and so improving your reading/listening comprehension skills, grammar, and vocabulary.

In the early thirteenth century, Frederick II became Holy Roman Emperor and King of the southern parts of Italy. But in Sicily, a large muslim community rebelled against his rule, so were brutally deported, a safe distance away, to the mainland city of Lucera.

An educated man, the Emperor could speak multiple foreign languages, including Arabic. He enjoyed mixing with the wise men of his day, many of whom were muslim scientists, philosophers or political advisors. With their advice and support, he went on to make peace with the Sultan and to become King of Jerusalem.

Fredrick’s relationship with contemporary popes, at the time the ultimate spiritual authorities and so rivals for power in the Italian pensinsula and elsewhere, was much less positive! Perhaps suspicious of the conflicted loyalties of fellow Christians, the emperor recruiting muslim archers, cavalry and even his personal bodyguard from the exiled Sicilian muslim community, men who would be loyal only to him.

Meanwhile, back in Lucera, a muslim young boy is being schooled in archery by his unsmiling, one-armed father…

This week’s eBook ‘easy reader’ is the C1/2 (advanced/proficiency) ‘Tumulto a Firenze’, another original story written to keep learners of Italian turning the pages and so improving their reading/listening comprehension skills, their grammar (there are lots of examples of the ‘passato remoto’, see below), and their vocabulary.

The thrill of revolution! At half the usual price!

Nel 1378 la situazione sociale, politica ed economica della Repubblica di Firenze è precaria. La città è stata fortemente debilitata dalla Peste del Trecento e da una recente guerra contro lo Stato Pontificio. La nobiltà cittadina e il “popolo grasso” (ricchi banchieri e imprenditori) aumentano dunque la pressione nei confronti dei lavoratori salariati (soprattutto lavoratori della lana).

Nel dialetto toscano, “ciompare” significa battere, colpire, picchiare. Si definivano dunque “Ciompi” i battilana. Vi erano molti tipi di lavoratori di tessuti, e i Ciompi sgrezzavano la lana. Si occupavano solo della fase iniziale e più dura della lavorazione.

Nell’estate del 1378, a fronte di uno scontro tra nobili e corporazioni, anche i poveri salariati si riversano in città. In un primo momento il loro numero e la loro disorganizzazione sono sconcertanti. Presa coscienza della propria superiorità numerica e supportati inizialmente dalle Arti, i lavoratori della lana, detti Ciompi, iniziano a esigere diritti politici.

“Svelto, Luigi, prendi le armi!” mio padre aveva fatto irruzione, tutto trafelato, nel retro della casa. Io e mia sorella Angela, che stavamo battendo la lana, interrompemmo il lavoro.

“Quali armi? Che succede babbo?” chiesi sorpreso.

“Non c’è tempo, ti spiego durante il cammino… tu prendi il coltellaccio, che non si sa mai!” Mi strinse una spalla con la mano. Gli lanciai uno sguardo interrogativo ma obbedii.

This week’s half-price eBook ‘easy reader’ is the C1 (advanced) – level ‘I racconti della vestale’, an original story that will keep you turning the pages, and so help improve your Italian reading/listening comprehension skills!

Comprendo che è un peso stare a sentire una vecchia logorroica, ma non ho molto pubblico ultimamente, però vorrei raccontarti la mia storia.

“La donna ha bisogno di essere protetta da un uomo perché è debole sotto molti aspetti. Per questo nessuna donna è libera. Né le attrici né le prostitute, né le cittadine, né le campagnole, né le matrone né, ovviamente, le schiave”.

Così aveva sentenziato mia nonna, accompagnandomi alla cerimonia di iniziazione, e poi aveva aggiunto, alzando il dito indice: “Ma le sacerdotesse della dea sono protette da Vesta, e sono preparate fin da piccole ad avere grandi responsabilità. Perciò possono scegliere cosa fare della propria vita, e quando finiscono di prestare servizio alla città, hanno la stessa libertà di un uomo”.

Avevo solo nove anni ma non ero stupida: sapevo che sposarsi significava sottostare al volere del proprio marito, produrre eredi per lui e accettarne le scappatelle. Questa era la vita di mia madre, e anche mia sorella Lucilla Maggiore stava per diventare esattamente quel tipo di matrona: a tredici anni aveva sposato un uomo di ventiquattro che aveva conosciuto il giorno prima del matrimonio.

Mi aspettavano dunque trent’anni di servizio alla dea e poi sarei stata indipendente!

This week’s half-price eBook ‘easy reader’ is the C1 (advanced) – level ‘La commediante’, an enjoyable, original story that will keep you turning the pages, and so help improve your Italian reading/listening comprehension skills!

Nel 1500 nasce in Italia un nuovo modo di fare teatro. Si tratta della “Commedia dell’arte”, un tipo di teatro popolare che prende vita nelle piazze.

Le rappresentazioni non si basavano su un copione ben definito ma, piuttosto, su un “canovaccio” ovvero una traccia generica della storia. Toccava poi agli attori improvvisare le battute.

Le “arti” erano le corporazioni dei lavoratori di uno stesso settore. C’era dunque anche una “arte” degli attori. Fino al 1564 le compagnie di attori erano composte di dieci uomini…

Lucrezia is a young prostitute, whose real passion is show business! And because a troupe of players is in town, the local priest is going to have to wait a little longer to see her. Instead of working this afternoon, she’ll get dressed and go down to the piazza to see the show (for the third time!)

This week’s half-price eBook ‘easy reader’ is ‘I racconti di Canterbury‘, a selection of Geoffrey Chaucer’s pilgrims’ tales from medieval England. Improve your Italian comprehension skills as you read/listen to them, just £4.99!

Why read the Italian version of a classic of world literature instead of actual Italian literature?

Well, why not? Sometimes a familiar tale is reassuring when faced with the complexities of reading and listening in the language you’re learning.

Besides, you can do both! We have ‘easy reader’ versions of some of the classics of Italian literature, too!

Geoffrey Chaucer nacque a Londra nel 1340 circa, figlio di un importante mercante di vino. Per gran parte della sua vita, fu in contatto con la corte reale di Londra, tra cui quella di Edoardo III che gli consentì di compiere diversi viaggi in Francia, nelle Fiandre e in Italia.

“I racconti di Canterbury” sono una raccolta di racconti in versi. La cornice narrativa, che permette ai personaggi di raccontare le proprie storie, è un pellegrinaggio da Londra verso Canterbury per visitare la tomba di Thomas Becket.

This week’s half-price eBook of the Week offer is our B2 (upper-intermediate) -level version of Pirandello’s ‘Uno, nessuno e centomila‘.

We did this one as a mini-book-club back in May 2020, when most people were locked down, and because I was promoting our then-new Italian Literature series of ‘easy reader’ ebooks.

A group of us read the Italian original ‘together’. If you have time to kill and/or would like to tackle the original rather than our ‘easy reader’ version, read the commments in the mini-book-club. Scroll down to the bottom of that page to find them, in date order from oldest to newest.

And as regards our simplified version, the reviews were positive, and give a good idea of what you’d be getting should you decide to splash out £4.99 this week. Check out the free sample chapter, too. There’s a link below.

Nobel Prize winner Luigi Pirandello’s long-unfinshed novel of a privileged young man who one day realises that the way others perceive him is not the way he has always seen himself. Dissatisfied with the idea that everyone who knows him has a different picture of who he is, based on their own preconceptions, he decides to shake things up!

Press the ‘Apply coupon’ button and scroll down to check that the CART TOTAL (not the individual item price) really is discounted by 20%.

This promotion ends, and coupon code 2024-Summer-Sale-20%-Off expires, at midnight on Sunday 7th July 2024, so stock up today on the online lesson credits that you’ll need to make progress with your chosen foreign language!

Here’s that coupon code once more:
