This thesis is the result of research on the 13th-century dream journal of the Buddhist monk Myōe (1173 - 1232), founder and principal of Kōzan-ji temple (⾼⼭寺) in Kyoto. Why are the dream records of this Buddhist monk so important? Myōe was an influential priest in his time. However, his dream records, known under the title Yumeki 夢記, had not been accorded much attention in the past. Yet in recent years, a thorough study of the Kōzan-ji Temple's art collection has revealed evidence concerning their value in understanding the metaphysical world of this monk, as ... |

"Защо по нощница се пише най-добре? Какви са причините един мъж да не звъни на жената, която му е хвърлила око? (1. Умрял е и 2. Не иска) Как да се отървем от вътрешната си тревожност и да заприпкаме игриво по улицата, дарявайки околните със слънчева усмивка, без да опустошим хладилника преди това? Кое е по-добре за психиката - чаша вино или споделяне в приятелски кръг? А може би и двете едновременно? Всичко това в история, разказана със смях, сълзи, сополи и романтика, подправена със здравословен цинизъм. Живейте го този живот, защото е дълъг колкото два маха от крила на пеперуда, дъх на колибри и прозявка на котка. ... |

Сборникът Вълчи разкази разкрива дивия балкански дух, населяващ Трънските земи, където се преплитат история и фолклор, истина и легенда, любов и омраза. Заслепени от своите амбиции и копнежи за любов, справедливост и свобода, героите на разказите се оказват изправени пред избора да загърбят собствените си желания и да останат човеци или да престанат да бъдат себе си, та да се превърнат във вълци. Защото в едно смутно време, като кърджалийското такова, се раждат не само герои. Раждат се и зверове. Васил Попов е автор на разкази и романи, базирани на български митове и легенди. През годините творбите му са отличавани в ... |

"В разказите - както и в романите си, Николай Табаков не изневерява на себе си: описва чешити, описва чудесии, описва самобитности. Описва живота така, че да го превърне в литература, а литературата я кара да описва така, че да се превърне самата тя в живот. А той, авторът, Николай Табаков, обича с неподправен хъс и с преданост и единия, и другата, и тази негова обич избива върху писателското му перо с цялата си свежест, с всичкия му талант. И се предава на нас, читателите, които четем чешитските му разкази, чешитски и самобитни, и се радваме на чудесиите в тях, с цялото си сърце се радваме и - радвайки се, сами ... |

Deep rivers, tall trees, strange animals, beautiful flowers - this is the rainforest. Burning trees, thick smoke, new roads and cities, dead animals - this is the rainforest too. To some people the rainforests mean beautiful places that you can visit; to others they mean trees that they can cut down and sell. Between 1950 and 2000 half of the world's rainforests disappeared. While you read these words, people are cutting down rainforest trees. What are these wonderful places that we call rainforests - and is it too late to save them?
