Story
Cette œuvre est à la fois roman, histoire et poésie. En imaginant les Mémoires d'un grand empereur romain, l'auteur a voulu "refaire du dedans ce que les archéologues du XIXe siècle ont fait du dehors". Jugeant sans complaisance sa vie d'homme et son œuvre politique, Hadrien n'ignore pas que Rome finira un jour par périr, mais son réalisme romain et son humanisme hérité des Grecs lui font sentir l'importance de penser et de servir jusqu'au bout.

Story
Giudicando la propria vita di uomo e l'opera politica, Adriano non ignora che Roma finirà un giorno per tramontare; e tuttavia il suo senso dell'umano, eredità che gli proviene dai Greci, lo sprona a pensare e servire sino alla fine. "Mi sentivo responsabile della bellezza del mondo" afferma, personaggio che porta su di sé i problemi degli uomini di ogni tempo, alla ricerca di un accordo tra la felicità e il metodo, fra l'intelligenza e la volontà.

Story
When Andrée joins her school, Sylvie is immediately fascinated. Andrée is small for her age, but walks with the confidence of an adult. Under her red coat, she hides terrible burn scars, and when she imagines beautiful things, she gets goosebumps. Secretly Sylvie believes that Andrée is a prodigy about whom books will be written. The girls become close. They talk for hours about equality, justice, war and religion; they lose respect for their teachers; they build a world of their own. But they can't stay like this forever.
