"In Genesis, my camera allowed nature to speak to me. And it was my privilege to listen." Sebastiao Salgado On a very fortuitous day in 1970, 26-year-old Sebastiao Salgado held a camera for the first time. When he looked through the viewfinder, he experienced a revelation: suddenly life made sense. From that day onward - though it took years of hard work before he had the experience to earn his living as a photographer - the camera became his tool for interacting with the world. Salgado, who "always preferred the chiaroscuro palette of black-and-white images," shot very little color in his early ... |

Страниците и в тази книга са един дълъг разказ. Няколкото така наречени епизода привидно го повеждат в различни посоки. Всъщност единствената посока е навътре към преживяванията на полковник Христо Лазаров от военното разузнаване. Читателят разбира, че името е измислено, за да скрие една конкретна личност. Този жив все още човек обаче е литературно обременен с преживяванията и на други като него. Така той става обобщаващ образ. В самия заник на своя дълъг живот полковникът от резерва Христо Лазаров разбира стойностната страна на нещата. А така също порочността, престъпността и бездушието на политическата класа, която ни ... |

"Какъв е приносът на Цицерон за разбирането на понятието държава и за нейното най-добро организиране и управление? Преди него гърците също заявяват, че законите трябва да управляват държавата, че целта ѝ се свързва с добрия живот на семействата и т.н. Заслугата на Цицерон се състои в това, че доразвивайки теорията на Аристотел , той обосновава и юридизира съдържанието на понятието за държава - res publica. Доминира мнение сред представителите на правната романистика, че римляните не са създали свое учение за държавата и са отделили много по-малко внимание на публичното право в сравнение с частното.
