Critic? literar? Editura Allfa inaugureaz? seria de volume ?Eminescu, poem cu poem” care va cuprinde ?ntreaga oper? poetic? antum? a marelui poet analizat? de scriitorul ?i criticul literar Alex. ?tef?nescu. Lucrarea ?Eminescu, poem cu poem. Luceaf?rul” ne dezva?? de toate vechile obiceiuri de interpretare care au prezentat ?n limbaj de lemn poezia eminescian?. Alex. ?tef?nescu ne face din nou cuno?tin??, de data aceasta ?n cuvinte simple ?i idei proaspete, cu cea mai cunoscut? poezie din literatura rom?n?. Analiza sa cuprinde observa?ii fresh ?i referin?e culturale pe gustul elevilor, tinerilor ?i iubitorilor de literatur? care (re)descoper? ast?zi poezia eminescian?. Numai un scriitor de geniu poate crea un personaj care s? ajung? mai cunoscut dec?t el. A?a cum Hamlet egaleaz? celebritatea lui Shakespeare, iar Don Quijote pe cea a lui Cervantes, ?i Eminescu este concurat ca notorietate de unul dintre personajele sale, luceaf?rul. Mai mult dec?t at?t, poetul a fost numit p?n? la sa?ietate ?luceaf?rul poeziei rom?ne?ti”, sintagm? despre care Alex. ?tef?nescu spune c? este considerat? ?n prezent o expresie uzat? din limba de lemn a omagierii lui Eminescu. Renun??nd la limbajul bombastic ?n care a fost prezentat p?n? acum, criticul literar subliniaz? frumuse?ea literar? a straniului love-story dintre luceaf?r ?i C?t?lina. Este o poveste de neuitat, comparabil? cu alte iubiri irealizabile (sau posibile numai prin sacrificiu) ?ntip?rite ?n memoria noastr? cultural?, precum aceea dintre Zeus, st?p?nitorul cerurilor, ?i Europa, prin?esa fenician?, cea a lui Romeo ?i a Julietei, ?i precum povestea dintre riga Crypto ?i lapona Enigel din poemul lui Ion Barbu. Volumul cuprinde poemul ?Luceaf?rul” ?nso?it de textul critic al lui Alex. ?tef?nescu.

Cartea lui Michael Finkenthal ofer o prim, ptrunztoare, lectur critic mai ampl a scrierilor suprarealiste ale lui Dolfi Trost, unul dintre membrii Grupului suprarealist romn – foarte activ ntre anii 1940 i 1947 la Bucureti –, coautor, alturi de Gherasim Luca, al celebrului manifest Dialectique de la dialectique. E o contribuie valoroas, revelatoare pentru suprarealismul frenetic al bucuretenilor angajai ntr-un ndrzne dialog cu micarea european de avangard. Documente inedite rotunjesc profilul unui spirit nonconformist, pe care interpretul su are grij s-l situeze, atent la nuane, n contextul agitat al epocii. O recuperare, aadar, salutar care mbogete substanial imaginea acestei ultime etape a avangardei istorice romneti.“ – Ion Pop

“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)

Un fascinant atelier de crea?ie unde sunt convocate c?r?ile cele mai importante ap?rute ?n perioada postdecembrist?, meritul acestei monografii fiind acela de a aborda un domeniu marginalizat ?n ultimii ani ?i tratat pe nedrept ca o cenu??reas?. Rostul acestui studiu monografic este acela de a informa lectorul asupra poeziei majore scrise ?n Rom?nia, redeschiz?ndu-i apetitul pentru Poezie. Cartea se adreseaz? elevilor, studen?ilor, precum ?i publicului larg de cititori.

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)

E cu putin?? ca un studiu despre Constantin Noica – unul care se respect? ?i vrea s? fie respectat – s? fie scris de un literat? Noica are la noi statutul filosofului tare (faptul se explic? poate tocmai prin absen?a unei filosofii tari ?n spa?iul cultural rom?nesc) ?i, ?n plus, a cam dezavuat literatura, consider?nd-o cumva frivol?. Poate chiar pe scriitori. Prin urmare, s?nt toate datele ca acest fapt s? par? cel pu?in riscant. Dac? nu o insolen??. Doar c? Dorin Popescu, autorul c?r?ii, de?i absolvent de studii filologice, nu e numai ceea ce se nume?te ?ndeob?te prin literat; pe de alt? parte, din confruntarea cu exerci?iul exegetic nici Constantin Noica nu mai iese la fel de ?ncorsetat ?n tiparele prejudec??ilor. Altfel spus, nici Constantin Noica nu mai este Constantin Noica – a?a cum apare ?n tratatele despre filosofia rom?neasc?. (Mircea A. Diaconu)

Nici avangardi?tii cei mai radicali n-au putut ignora total tradi?ia, de?i, la modul teoretic, au pretins c? au aruncat-o la co?ul de gunoi. Un Urmuz a valorificat absurdul care nu lipse?te din folclor, dar nici din Caragiale. ?Constructivi?tii” au sim?it tenta?ia s?-l asimileze pe Br?ncu?i la avangard? etc. Iat? ?ns? c? postmoderni?tii au ajuns la ??n?elepciunea” c? lumea contemporan? ?ncepe doar cu d?n?ii. Am auzit voci spun?nd c? Liviu Rebreanu este at?t de ??nvechit”, ?nc?t nu mai are ce c?uta ?n programele de ?nv???m?nt. Nu mai vorbim de Eminescu. Acesta n-ar fi dec?t un scriitor ?istoricizat”, interesant, cel mult, prin c?teva poeme cu tent? parodic-textualist?, cum sus?ine un eminent istoric literar, care consider? c? locul ?n ?canonul literar” rom?nesc trebuie cedat postmodernistului Mircea C?rt?rescu, cu detronarea ?poetului na?ional”, sintagm? complet ?dep??it?”.

Angéla gondtalan áhítattal mosolyog a hajnali fénybe, mik?zben széthulló családja életük romjait menekíti, Eszter pedig tehetetlen irigységgel zokog, amiért nem láthatja szenvedni ezt az ártatlan angyalt. ?vekkel kés?bb találkoznak ismét, a kapocs kettejük k?z?tt egy férfi ? férj és szeret?.

The Divine Comedy describes Dante's journey through Hell (Inferno), Purgatory (Purgatorio), and Paradise (Paradiso), guided first by the Roman poet Virgil and then by Beatrice, the subject of his love and of another of his works, La Vita Nuova. While the vision of Hell, the Inferno, is vivid for modern readers, the theological niceties presented in the other books require a certain amount of patience and knowledge to appreciate. Purgatorio, the most lyrical and human of the three, also has the most poets in it; Paradiso, the most heavily theological, has the most beautiful and ecstatic mystic passages in which Dante tries to describe what he confesses he is unable to convey (e.g., when Dante looks into the face of God: "all'alta fantasia qui mancò possa" — "at this high moment, ability failed my capacity to describe," Paradiso, XXXIII, 142). "IN the midway of this our mortal life, I found me in a gloomy wood, astray Gone from the path direct: and e'en to tell It were no easy task, how savage wild That forest, how robust and rough its growth, Which to remember only, my dismay Renews, in bitterness not far from death.." (Dante) IN the midway of this our mortal life,I found me in a gloomy wood, astrayGone from the path direct: and e'en to tellIt were no easy task, how savage wildThat forest, how robust and rough its growth,Which to remember only, my dismayRenews, in bitterness not far from death.Yet to discourse of what there good befell,All else will I relate discover'd there.How first I enter'd it I scarce can say,Such sleepy dullness in that instant weigh'dMy senses down, when the true path I left,But when a mountain's foot I reach'd, where clos'dThe valley, that had pierc'd my heart with dread,I look'd aloft, and saw his shoulders broadAlready vested with that planet's beam,Who leads all wanderers safe through every way. Then was a little respite to the fear,That in my heart's recesses deep had lain,All of that night, so pitifully pass'd:And as a man, with difficult short breath,Forespent with toiling, 'scap'd from sea to shore,Turns to the perilous wide waste, and standsAt gaze; e'en so my spirit, that yet fail'dStruggling with terror, turn'd to view the straits,That none hath pass'd and liv'd. My weary frameAfter short pause recomforted, againI journey'd on over that lonely steep,The hinder foot still firmer. Scarce the ascentBegan, when, lo! a panther, nimble, light,And cover'd with a speckled skin, appear'd,Nor, when it saw me, vanish'd, rather stroveTo check my onward going; that ofttimesWith purpose to retrace my steps I turn'd. ? ?About Dante: ? Durante degli Alighieri, simply referred to as Dante (1265–1321), was a major Italian poet of the Middle Ages. His Divine Comedy, originally called La Comedia and later called Divina by Boccaccio, is widely considered the greatest literary work composed in the Italian language and a masterpiece of world literature. In Italy he is known as il Sommo Poeta ("the Supreme Poet") or just il Poeta. He, Petrarch and Boccaccio are also known as "the three fountains" or "the three crowns". Dante is also called the "Father of the Italian language".

It is not the purpose of this work to write a treatise on instrumentation or to prepare a pedagogical analysis of orchestration only, but rather to trace the evolu-tion of the orchestra and of orchestration in connection with the history of music proper. Special emphasis will be laid upon what may be termed the IMPELLING FORCES to which the development of orchestration is due. This necessitates a considerable repetition of familiar facts that do not lend themselves to further original treatment. The restatement of such facts, however, would seem to form an indispensable background for the main theme, which is thereby exposed with all its attending phases of logical evolution. In addition to extended studies of orchestral scores themselves, the standard works of Berlioz, Geva?rt, Riemann, Parry, and others have, as a matter of course, been referred to. The subject under discussion has already been admirably handled by Lavoix in his voluminous work entitled "Histoire de L'Instrumentation," but it was unquestionably done through French glasses, and the scores of not one German romanticist are submitted to careful analysis beyond those of Weber and Wagner. "Parsifal" had not been produced at the time when Lavoix's book went to press, nor had such representative composers as Brahms, Saint-Sa?ns, Tschaikowsky, Dvorak then won their full meed of recognition. It is obvious, therefore, that the orchestration especially of the nineteenth century offers a fertile field for further profitable research. Again, the present writer is not aware of the existence of any comprehensive work in the English language upon the history of the orchestra and of orchestration. Throughout these pages the achievements of the more prominent composers are set forth in such manner as to indicate not only the distinctive features of their orchestration but of their general creative ability as well. In each case, the general style of composition and its significance as a contribution to musical literature are first enlarged upon. This is followed by an examination of the differentiated treatment of the strings, the wood, the brass, presented in logical sequence. A final analysis is then made of the individual method of orchestration as a whole, together with its relative value in the evolution of orchestration. In the Appendix to this book will be found a few musical illustrations selected from representative orchestral scores. LOUIS ADOLPHE COERNE. Cambridge, Massachusetts, U.S.A.April 30, 1905.

Bu kitapta Türkiye Cumhuriyeti'nin Atatürk'ten sonra gelen en ba?ar?l? lideri Recep Tayyip Erdo?an'?n siyasi hayat? ve ?zellikle icraat?n ba??nda oldu?u Ba?bakanl?k d?nemi yer almaktad?r. Ba?bakanl?k d?neminde ya?anan siyasi ve gündemi olu?turan olaylar kronolojik olarak s?ralanm??t?r.

Ayr?ca Recep Tayyip Erdo?an'?n karakteri, ald??? ?düller ve yabanc?lar?n g?zünden Recep Tayyip Erdo?an hakk?nda yorumlar yer almaktad?r. "Yeni Türkiye" olarak tan?mlad??? 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?.

(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.
