Жан Портанте е един от най-интересните европейски поети, пишещи на език, различен от техния роден. Всеки език е език в Езика, и всеки език си има сянка или самият той е сянка на друг език. Тези две посоки не се взаимоизключват в стихосбирката му "Точки". Едната стига до вътрешния ритъм на дишане, който силно се различава от видимата си форма, както китът изглежда риба, а е млекопитаещо с бели дробове. Другата намира страха от загубването на езика, но и винаги отново и отново отвоювания език. Думите се изтриват сами още при писането, дишат успоредно в езиците, изменят значенията. Point de depart не е начална ... |

Where is the Eastern border of European culture? ... The pobiti kamani complex near Varna was the first region in Bulgaria to be granted protected status in 1937. It has since acquired global renown. this book, however, looks at the complex from a completely new point of view, not as a natural phenomenon, but as a deliberate creation similar to the megalithic complex of Stonehenge in England, with which a number of comparisons are made. The first piece of evidence is that the Pobiti kamani complexes were built in such a way as to follow the path of the Sun in the cardinal moments of its transition - the spring and autumn ... |

Master of the sublime: The essential Impressionist. ... No other artist, apart from J.M.W. Turner, tried as hard as Claude Monet (1840 - 1926) to capture light itself on canvas. Of all the Impressionists, it was the man Cezanne called "only an eye, but my God what an eye!" who stayed true to the principle of absolute fidelity to the visual sensation, painting directly from the object. It could be said that Monet reinvented the possibilities of color. Whether it was through his early interest in Japanese prints, his time as a conscript in the dazzling light of Algeria, or his personal acquaintance with the ... |
