It was approaching nightfall. The sexton, Savely Gykin, was lying in his huge bed in the hut adjoining the church. He was not asleep, though it was his habit to go to sleep at the same time as the hens. His coarse red hair peeped from under one end of the greasy patchwork quilt, made up of coloured rags, while his big unwashed feet stuck out from the other. He was listening. His hut adjoined the wall that encircled the church and the solitary window in it looked out upon the open country. And out there a regular battle was going on. It was hard to say who was being wiped off the face of the earth, and for the sake of whose destruction nature was being churned up into such a ferment; but, judging from the unceasing malignant roar, someone was getting it very hot.

Faced with Princess Candera’s kidnap by the Asperian Secret Service, our heroes attempt to undertake a daring mission to free her. However their usual level of incompetence quickly strikes and they too find themselves imprisoned in Minaturia’s most fearsome prison Ultricon. No one has ever escaped its magically secure interior. Inside the prison it soon becomes clear that they are not alone in their efforts to escape. Joining forces with the existing prisoners they hope soon to escape through an extremely long tunnel. But why do the guards not seem to care about the obvious escape attempt? Why does the tunnel never reach the surface? In the world outside Casper and his forces are being pushed back to their last fortress by Stephanie's superior army. It seems only a matter of time before he is killed or faced with exile to the underworld. The Pentagram Council while gloating of their success wonder about the force possessing Stephanie's body. Why can't they control her in the way they expect? Can they conquer Minaturia and then turn their attention to the world of the Giants? Can they escape? Is Stephanie lost forever, possessed by an unknown evil force? Will Casper avoid defeat from her advancing forces? Will the Pentagram Council succeed in their efforts at world domination? Find out in the next exciting part of the series, Magpies and Magic: The Great Escape.

Critical Acclaim for Sherry Quan Lee's Chinese Blackbird "Quan Lee eloquently expresses how painful and confusing it can be to embrace the many complex identities that one body can contain. With evocative imagery and words that cut straight to the heart, Quan Lee details her lifelong struggles with both the vagaries and concreteness of race, class, gender and sexual identity. Her guilt and shame are palpable. But so too are her emotional and intellectual triumphs. Like a favorite sad song when we have been dumped by the love of our lives, this volume will be oddly comforting to anyone who has ever been overcome by that sorrow which seems insurmountable." --Eden Torres, Assistant Professor Women's Studies, Chicano Studies, University of Minnesota "It's been a long time since I've been treated to a voice so full of honesty about one's struggle to come to terms with her identity. Through elegant poetry, full of exquisite imagery and detail, Quan Lee takes the reader on her personal, transformative journey in which she explores how race, class, gender and sexual identity inform who she is. Along the way, she encounters rocks and boulders that would have stopped many of us. Instead, she turns them over and examines the creatures hiding in the darkness underneath, leaving no stone on her path unturned. Quan Lee is a courageous woman. She is one of my sheroes." --Carolyn Holbrook, Adjunct Assistant Professor, Dept. of English, Founder and past Artistic/Executive Director of SASE: The Write Place "In Chinese Blackbird, Sherry Quan Lee renders stories of her complex cultural heritage with the lyrical touch of a poet coming into self-possession. Through the generative power of language, Lee creates an inspirational and a multifarious self. This self blows breath unto the page and into the reader, who may have felt quiescent or invisible, often feeling forced to choose among various enriching worlds, until she experiences the truth that only good literature can unveil about the joys and struggles of defining oneself on one's terms." --Pamela R. Fletcher, Associate Professor of English Co-Director of Critical Studies in Race and Ethnicity, College of St. Catherine Learn more about the author at www.SherryQuanLee.com Book #2 in the Reflections of History Series from Modern History Press www.ModernHistoryPress.com Modern History Press is an imprint of Loving Healing Press

Ba?bakanl?k d?neminde ya?anan siyasi ve gündemi olu?turan olaylar kronolojik olarak s?ralanm??t?r. Bu eserde "Ba?ar?l? bir siyaset?i nas?l olunur?" sorusunun cevab?, 13 y?ll?k Ba?bakanl?k yapt??? g?revinde nas?l ba?ar?l? oldu?unun yan?t?, Recep Tayyip Erdo?an'?n hayat?ndan kesitler ve Recep Tayyip Erdo?an'?n farkl? konulardaki de?erlendirmeleri ve g?rü?leri vard?r.

Recep Tayyip Erdo?an'?n Türkiye'sinden bizim almam?z gereken dersler de elbette vard?r...Recep Tayyip Erdo?an, 26 ?ubat 1954'te ?stanbul'un Kas?mpa?a semtinde ailesinin ü?üncü ?ocu?u olarak do?du. Ahmet Erdo?an'?n Tenzile Erdo?an'la olan ikinci evlili?inden bir erkek ?ocu?u, Recep Tayyip dünyaya geldi. Babas?n?n, bir ?nceki evlili?inden iki ?ocu?u daha vard?. Recep Tayyip Erdo?an'?n biri k?z d?rt karde?i vard?. Deniz Hatlar?'nda k?y? kaptan? olarak ?al??an "Reis Kaptan" lakapl? baba Ahmet Erdo?an, o?luna babas?n?n ad? olan Tayyip ad?n? koydu. Eski takvime g?re Recep ay?nda do?an bebe?e Recep ad? da verildi. Recep Tayyip Erdo?an'?n ailesi, Recep Tayyip Erdo?an 13 ya??ndayken Rize'nin eski ad?yla Potamya yeni ad?yla Güneysu il?esinden, yokluk ve i?sizlik nedeniyle ?stanbul'un Kas?mpa?a semtine g?? etti. Recep Tayyip Erdo?an'?n babas? Sahil Güvenlik Te?kilat?nda g?revli oldu?u i?in ?ocuklu?u Rize'de ge?ti. Babas?, o d?nemin “?irket-i Hayriye”si günümüzün Denizyollar?'nda kaptanl?k yapt? ve ve k?y? kaptanl???ndan emekli oldu. Recep Tayyip Erdo?an, o günleri anlat?rken babas?n?n ?stanbul'un varo?lar?nda ko?turdu?unu belirterek, gelecekte nas?l bir ya?am olmas? gerekti?ini ?u s?zlerle ifade ediyordu:“O ?ilelerin i?erisinden geldik. Onlar da oralarda b?yle merdiven altlar?nda odalarda ya?ad?lar. Bunlar? bana a?layarak anlat?rd? rahmetli babam. Biz oralardan geldik. Ama oralarda kalamay?z. Gelecek ku?aklar?m?za da biz oralar? ?rnek olarak veririz ama ‘Orada kal.’ diyemeyiz. Bunlar? ya?ad???m?za g?re gelecek ku?aklara biz ?ok daha farkl? bir Türkiye b?rakmak zorunday?z. O yavrular?m?z ?ok daha farkl? yeti?mek durumunda. E?er ben o?lumu, torunumu bilimde, sanatta her alanda ?ok daha ileri g?türebiliyorsam kendimi ?ok daha ba?ar?l? bir baba ve dede olarak g?rebilirim. E?er g?türemiyorsam o zaman ba?ar?s?z?m, olaya b?yle bakaca??z. Onun i?in bizim bir günümüz di?erine e?it olmamal?. Dün bugünden geri kalmal?. Yar?n bugünden ?ok daha ileri olmal?. Mevlana diyor ya ’Dün dünde kald? canca??z?m yeni bir ?eyler yapmak, s?ylemek laz?m.’ … ??te biz bunu ba?armak durumunday?z.”

“Prima edi?ie din Jurnalul lui Lev Tolstoi a ap?rut la Editura Univers, ?n dou? volume (?n anii 1975 ?i 1976 – vol. I: 1847-1895, vol. II: 1896-1910), incluse ?n colec?ia ?Coresponden??, memorii, jurnale“. Traducerea a realizat-o Janina Iano?i; prefa??, tabelul cronologic, notele ?i comentariile – Ion Iano?i. Respectiva edi?ie a reprezentat o selec?ie din textul integral al edi?iei academice ruse?ti Polnoe sobranie socinenii (iubileinoe izdanie), Opere complete (edi?ie jubiliar?). Din volumele 1-90 (Moscova-Leningrad, 1928-1958), am folosit cele treisprezece volume de jurnal, 46-58 (ap?rute ?ntre 1934 ?i 1958). Orientativ, am consultat ?i o edi?ie de Opere ?n dou?zeci de volume (din 1965) – volumele 19 ?i 20. ?n alegerea textelor am urm?rit devenirea ?i dominantele cople?itoarei personalit??i a marelui scriitor, ?in?nd seama ?i de interesele publicului cititor rom?nesc. Edi?ia a II-a i s-a datorat Editurii Elit (tip?rit?, f?r? specificarea datei, ?n 2000). Ea a urmat, cu unele renun??ri ?i c?teva complet?ri, varianta ini?ial?, dar ?i pe baza confrunt?rii textelor cu cele re?inute ?ntr-o selec?ie ruseasc? ulterioar?, ?n dou?zeci ?i dou? de volume, Sobranie socinenii v dvadtati dvux tomah (Moscova, 1985), Opere ?n dou?zeci ?i dou? de volume, volumele 21 ?i 22. Am constatat cu acel prilej coinciden?a ?ntre majoritatea textelor re?inute ini?ial de noi ?i de alc?tuitorul respectivei edi?ii ruse?ti, dar ?i unele deosebiri: sunt acolo prezente fie pasaje ?teoretice“ mai ample, fie altele cu adres? recognoscibil? doar de c?tre cititorii autohtoni familiariza?i cu mediul specific vremii – ?n schimb, sunt omise at?t detalii biografice considerate a fi prea intime (mai ales erotice, ?n genere legate de starea corporal?, de s?n?tate ori boal?), c?t ?i multe accente sociale considerate de editorul rus de atunci ca indezirabile prin ascutisul lor critic (cu deosebire, cele la adresa revolu?iei, marxismului, socialismului). ?n ceea ce ne prive?te, le-am p?strat ?i pe unele, ?i pe celelalte, ?n schimb nu am dorit – cu rare excep?ii – s? ?nc?rcam selec?ia noastr? cu expozeuri lungite, care oricum variaza idei cunoscute. Amintita edi?ie rus? ne-a servit, mai degrab?, pentru suplimentarea acribiei de care am ?ncercat s? d?m dovada ?nc? din anii ?aptezeci ai secolului trecut. Am urmat aceea?i cale ?i la revederea ?i ?mbun?ta?irea textului pentru prezenta edi?ie, a III-a, finalizat?, dup? al?i cinci ani, prin bun?voin?a Editurii Ideea European?.“ (Ion Iano?i)

Cartea pe care joac? de la ?nceput D. ?epeneag este aceea a (neo)avangardei. A fost firesc ?i miraculos s? o ?nceap? la Bucure?ti, ?ntr-un moment de straniu, nea?teptat ?i viclean experiment politic ?liberal“-na?ional-comunist, c?nd literatura rom?n? ren??tea, ?n felurite chipuri, din cenu?? realist-socialist?. La Paris, ?n ianuarie 1971, descoperea o lume artistic? diferit?, dar cu dificult??i diferite ?i deloc ?ncur?j?toare. Exemplele lui Tzara, Isou, Ionesco, inimitabile, r?m?n, la o analiz? lucida a ?anselor, doar consolatoare. Nu-i u?or s? convingi o lume pentru care ?nnoirile at?t de frecvente au fost confiscate de tradi?ie. Parisul, Fran?a, limba lui Jarry s-au dezobi?nuit temeinic s? mai a?tepte scandaluri estetice de import. Produc?ia artistic? intern? e suficient?, chiar excedentar?. Sunt timpuri f?r? glorie, grele, pentru avangardi?tii parizieni. (Marian Victor Buciu)

Unul dintre volumele de v?rf ale scriitorului german, ?n traducerea romancierului Nicolae Breban.

Existen?a diafana, care continu? volumele de autor Cercul de gra?ie (2003) ?i O carte pe s?pt?m?n? (2007), reprezint? o foarte echilibrat? ?i competent? radiografiere a simptomatologiei editoriale rom?ne?ti din anii 2000-2010, ?tefan Borbely unind ?ntre coper?ile aceluia?i volum at?t texte dedicate unor nume consacrate ale literaturii rom?ne (Marin Sorescu, Mircea Zaciu, Nicolae Breban, Marin Mincu, Livius Cioc?rlie, Adrian Marino, Horia-Roman Patapievici, Mircea C?rt?rescu, Paul Cornea, Dan C. Mih?ilescu), c?t ?i analize ale unor autori tineri, care s-au f?cut cunoscu?i ?n ultimii ani (Adrian Dohotaru, C?t?lin ?i Roxana Ghi??, Adriana Teodorescu, Florina Codreanu, Ioana Macrea-Toma, Constantina Raveca Buleu), cu c?r?i preponderent din domeniul istoriei ?i sintaxei mentalit??ilor ?i cel al studiilor culturale. Fire analitic?, scrut?toare, dotat? cu o bun? deschidere teoretic? ?i cu o impecabil? precizie a conceptelor, ?tefan Borbely este interesat cu prec?dere de idei ?i de simptomatologii culturale, textele dedicate jurnalului lui Adrian Marino (Via?a unui om singur), experimentalismului lui Marin Mincu sau modernit??ii ?n lectura lui Paul Cornea (toate prezente ?n carte) fiind dintre cele mai bune care s-au scris ?n domeniu. Pornind de la cazuri particulare ?i de la volume care au, f?r? excep?ie, o deschidere ideatic? vast?, incitant?, cartea profesorului Borbely reprezint? un foarte suplu efort de sintez? critic?, realizat? cu har, competen?a ?i profesionalism.

O alta fa?? a tranzi?iei ce atinge mediul rural, o familie ce risc? s? se destrame. Stil clasic, de un calm ?i o limpezime imperturbabile. Un roman fascinant, destinat marelui public cititor.

„Bucur?-te de fiecare clip? tr?it?!“ „Principala mea preocupare în via?? a fost s? mi cultiv pl?cerile sim?urilor. Sim?indu-m? n?scut pentru sexul opus, l-am iubit întotdeauna ?i m-am l?sat iubit de el. Mi-a pl?cut la nebunie savoarea meselor bune ?i m-a pasionat tot ceea ce era menit s?-mi incite curiozitatea.“ – Casanova Casanova (n. 1725, Vene?ia), „scandalosul ?i insolitul vene?ian, nu a fost doar ceea ce s-a crezut: un aventurier, escroc ?i libertin. Ci ?i poetul, memorialistul, filosoful, muzicianul ale c?rui Memorii au fost considerate «adev?rata Enciclopedie a secolului al XVIII lea».“ – Blaise Cendrars „Pu?ine persoane îi pot egala cunoa?terea, inteligen?a ?i imagina?ia.“ – Lamberg ?Via?a monden? ?i amoroas? a lui Casanova a fost consemnat? f?r? pudoare în miile de pagini ale Memoriilor sale, intitulate ?i Povestea vie?ii mele, autobiografie lipsit? de complezen??, care traverseaz? Secolul Luminilor. Scris? extrem de savuros, cartea – din care edi?ia de fa?? ofer? o bogat? selec?ie – este considerat? o capodoper? a literaturii, prin picanteria detaliilor, amploarea moravurilor descrise ?i erudi?ia autorului.

Apreciat? la vremea ei pentru angajamentul ?i talentul de a media ?ntre culturi, Regina Elisabeta a Rom?niei (1843-1916) este considerat? p?n? ?n zilele noastre drept una dintre cele mai importante mediatoare ale literaturii ?i culturii rom?ne?ti ?n spa?iul de limb? german? de la sf?r?itul secolului al XIX-lea. Prin apari?ia sa neconven?ional? ca scriitoare, sub pseudonimul literar Carmen Sylva, angajat? ?n prop??irea dinastiei rom?ne, prima regin? a Rom?niei, Elisabeta, a demonstrat ?n fa?a publicului semnifica?ia modern? a ?profesiei“ de so?ie de monarh, un exemplu pe care succesoarea sa, Regina Maria a Rom?niei ?l va des?v?r?i.

Aura Christi posed numeroase virtui. Fora compoziiei pe multe planuri. Impactul personal ntre lecturi bogate i o viguroas inventivitate. Mijloace suple de caracterizare. O stilistic adaptat nevoilor expresive.” (Ion Ianoi) Corpul romanesc conine originalitate i – cel mai mare ctig – un timbru numai al su. E inclasificabil, n termenii triadei manolesciene doric-ionic-corintic. Dar, spre deosebire de alte scrieri tinere, i face s zvcneasc pe toi trei.” (Nicoleta Slcudeanu)
