"Социалната функция на изкуството е изчерпана в елитарните и консуматорски пози на креативния потребител, апотеозно честващ експертни статуси и високи морални позиции. Струва ни се, че съвременните автори, ако въобще има такива, изцяло са интернализирали дисциплиниращите дискурси на литературната, научната и политическата власт. Подобно на Фуко откриваме надежда в технологиите на себе си, фиксиращи обаче не дистанциите спрямо властовите центрове, но най-вече спрямо подмяната на екзистенциално-метафизичните търсения, на крайностите на човека, на граничните образи и езици с оправданията на техните тотални отсъствия в ... |

To explore the Tarot is to explore ourselves, to be reminded of the universality of our longing for meaning, for purpose and for a connection to the divine. This 600-year-old tradition reflects not only a history of seekers, but our journey of artistic expression and the ways we communicate our collective human story.

"Handsome, clever, and rich", Emma is also an "imaginist", "on fire with speculation and foresight". She sees the signs of romance all around her, but thinks she will never be married. Her matchmaking maps out relationships that Jane Austen ironically tweaks into a clearer perspective. Judgement and imagination are matched in games the reader too can enjoy, and the end is a triumph of understanding. ... |
