Requirements For Reconsideration In Ust

About two editors chronic Dissipatio

understand some concern the publishing world moves me to read every book written by editor or bookseller, I feel that I find out some secrets that then allow me to better understand an environment that still seems though such readings strained and affected. An activity halfway between romanticism, optimism and business. The variables could be more, but these three suffice to make the case a porcupine. But I insist, as the writers insist on trying to understand, so I gave a reading of The optimism of the will Jorge Herralde and political education André Schiffrin. Of Schiffrin, famous and legendary editor, was published by Peninsula of Herralde by Economic Culture Fund. Are not comparable, are not on the same path. Schiffrin's chronicle is an autobiographical account in which he recalls the story of his father and the founding of the Pleiade and the appropriation of library by Gallimard. The Herralde book instead is, as he usually does, a compilation of already published texts, lectures, reviews, speeches, presentations of books and texts written expressly for that matter, as "a sort of patchwork defines himself. Schiffrin has an obvious desire narrative seems Herralde instead the head of a troop guide you decide that after making a stop along the way and have certain stories, that although they have historical value, are affected by a high degree of complacency.
Schiffrin and Herralde however have two important points d and match: the political ideas they defend and exercise independent editorial. Both left but Schiffrin has made politics more daily activity, however Herralde interests appears to have waned after the rapture left behind and the charm of the party scene, Franco dropped. Editorial independence is both a defining characteristic. Anagram has been and will be an independent label that is governed only by the interests of its owner and editor, even at times can seem capricious. Schiffrin is undoubtedly one of the major reference of independent publishing in the United States, first from the Pantheon, then from New Press, publishing house he founded after Random House had been acquired by a major publishing groups that bring together the vast majority of the issues in the world.
The independence of these two editors is undoubtedly the largest and most important education, a Catalan perhaps more joyous than the other, that perhaps polished by flight, disloyalty or exercise counter to a trade besieged by the commercial desire, a desire to prevent their owners perceive where they go and where it is futile to do so, because only cause trouble and discomfort, like it or not understanding the world of books can never deliver the earnings that were in other markets.
"I know for certain, for my own recent experience and that of my colleagues, who leads a life much better and Happy outside the whale entered d "Schiffrin writes, which will undoubtedly also received Herralde, who masterfully by others define their slogan: "the work of a literary editor is not to sell products but to discover the best writers of his time and publish books in the most careful and exacting as possible. Hoping and stubbornness tirelessly to convince readers that they will be also necessary books. "
Schiffrin Whether he knows what it calls Herralde apply to booksellers. The latter warns recurrent closeness between the two professions and feel natural confusion of the boundaries that may divide them. (Pfa)

Do You Need A Lisence To Operate A Hyab Au

humani generis. Guido Morselli. Laetoli. Trans. Elena del Amo.

All men have disappeared from a strange and ultimately only one survives, one who just wanted to exclude, to live apart: lonely renegade, a provocative, intelligent hypochondriac who preferred the solitude of the bushes , disturbed by the idolatry of the modern world to the communication . Its purpose was to commit suicide in the lake in a cave but repented when he returned to the surface all humans had volatilized, the rest was intact, or better still, without trace of violence, nature was his way, but without men. The
Survivor not surprised or upset, the end of the absurd world that hated and complacent. Maybe it thinks, the end of the world and God has forgotten him, no lack reasons: "Men have triggered, for thirty centuries approximately 5,000 war. They have been at fault (the finding is of Albert Camus), but the start of history, at least continue it . Do not condemn. Its worst fault or higher has been the world disfigurement. It used to add other charges: the Pollution , the wild (or, euphemistically, the "violence"). The Inflation (without euphemism: African currency). "
The first hours and days of solitude are happy, is heir to all, the top end of humanity, the end. His dream of solitude and autonomy has been reached, can live and move at your leisure, without being overwhelmed thinking, without being required to move the conversation .
The feeling of loneliness but it is distressing, it hurts. The man wanders and tries to find other human beings, without success. It is really only , infinitely alone. senses that inhabits a strange dimension but the objects that surround it, and the remnants of abandonment, the way the beds were apparently reveal that they are occupied, others who have gone to another dimension. He feels abandoned by world Borges, the Apo calipsis maybe. The disfigurement and communication have undoubtedly been the reason for the discomfort of God, but what about their exclusion?. Calls then in a state of hallucination be collected, returned to the group, returned back to the species. Suicide is now impossible: life as time and as the story put on hold if we are alone, take it away then it is an absurdity.
I doubt that is a metaphor. Morselli was not a moralist. Dissipatio humani generis is the creation of an oblique and terrifying universe. No one should care if this story is possible or not, nobody can feel that lonely, less a fair volatile. You better think about the genius of Guido Morselli having thought and written that this prodigy was not published. He committed suicide in 1973 at age 69, excluded itself from the literary world Italian to Calvin had written, fleeing and hiding, "To be of not entirely unknown: I am emiliano , self, alive only on a small piece of land where I do everything, even the builder ... "
"There is something desperate and at the same time, gentle on these pages," said Calasso them when published in Adelphi . No doubt. I dispense to read everything I could. (Pfa )

When Are You Contagious With Type I Herpes

Delights and Shadows. Ted Kooser. Hilario Barrero translation. Pre-texts. 2009. Personal Dictionary

Ted Kooser is convinced that life is uncontrollable : "... even in so short a world made only of small events can a person handle this life ", the claims of man who leaves early in the morning convinced of its role and importance are alien to the poet laureate of Iowa , major events, including detailed knowledge, practical and productive of affairs seems pompous, it is then careful and sensitive enjoyment of our surroundings and the constant wonder in front of small or seemingly insignificant things in the house we made our stay nice and simple people to their chagrin that summarize the entire universe. So the most important action of the businessman takes place may just start the day: "His hands flutter like birds, / each with a tape Silk / to build a nest, / while he was standing before the mirror / dressing for work, was greeted / himself with both hands. "And come out with a nest in the neck.
Some verses of Kooser with fortune subvert the forms and combine feelings: "... this coffee Vietnamese, with its oily light, / the smells in the form of flower ..." or "how heavy is your beauty," while other poems have a narrative force that allows them to look like, without shame, short stories, direct, simple and very personal. Some critics have compared to Chekhov .
vain not the title of this collection of poems , delights and shadows are words that define what he wants Kosse : those that cause us a delicious encourage intense pleasure (says the RAE) and the shadows of ourselves and all those in the dawn or dusk when the strength of the objects and our sensations are broken by their own dark extensions .
is the wonder however what precise or limited best poems Kooser , which causes a blue china, or the starry sky become the tense darkness wall "or" the gentle rain from the distant past, and that generate the strange and unexplained wonders of nature as one of "the little moth that lives on tears."
Poems for the waiting, whatever it is: the passage of time, the final hour, the resolution or answer to any person; waiting in the "no anxiety or impatience / or anger at the sight." I wish everyone had the strength to wait as some hope in the oncology ward, or as the old in these poems that have already realized the futility of looking for something new. (Pfa )

the shade of the leaves

An old-and-seventy years, lecherous professor David Kepesh relates to a listener anonymous, in a 170-page monologue, the vicissitudes of his passion for a Cuban girl, who was student of hers, almost forty years his junior, and which have paradoxically put the name of: Consuelo. We say, slyly, that the listener is not, as in other books of Roth-the psychoanalyst but plastic surgeon: "There are only a few that are displayed without reservation and today, because so much controversy, to me knot are those with the type of breast you would have invented. " (page 156), and the story happens at home of Kepesh: "[There is a picture of Stanley Spencer at the Tate Gallery ...] is one of Spencer's books, below. Then I'll go for. " (page 157). We say, again covertly, that the book should be concluded very soon after September 11 - "A brilliant ... had not been on for Bin Laden. " (page 158) - and maybe then fall into the trap of comparing dates and say alter ego of the author. It The Dying Animal by Philip Roth (Alfaguara, 2 nd edition 2007), which is, again, love and decrepitude.
Three paintings-four if you count Las Meninas, which is used for seduction, indicate the decisive moments in history: the San Sebastian of Mantegna, who compared the girl who shows her menses (page 84), the nude by Modigliani, which illustrates the cover of the edition of Houghton Mifflin, 2001 - on the postcard that you fill Consuelo Kepesh: "A naked breasts whose bulky, could have taken his own [Consuelo] as a model ... inexplicably slept on an abyss of black velvet, given my mood, I associated with the tomb. " (page 112), and finally (pages 156, 157 and 158), Stanley Spencer: "... a portrait in which Spencer and his wife, two forties and appear naked ... " *:, and Kepesh-Roth describes in minute delight, with true morbidity. A still life with decrepit. As well finish the book. Life just as well.
