The Garden of Divine Songs and Collected Poetry of Hryhory Skovoroda
￥90.03
Hryhory Skovoroda is considered by many as the first great Slavic philosopher and poet. Written over a period stretching from the 1750s until 1785, his The Garden of Divine Songs is a unique collection of 30 poems, featuring a complex system of strophic structures and with only a few of the songs written in a traditional way. Skovoroda never repeats one and the same strophic structure; this being the case, his Garden of Divine Songs according to writer-scholar Valery Shevchuk functions as a “practical guide to the art of poetry”, exemplifying all the meters and strophic patterns that were possible in Ukrainian poetry of that time. The poet makes masterful use of the accomplishments of academic poetry; the so-called “songs of the world” are the most prominent poems in this collection. These songs are an expression of Skovoroda's views in poetic form, and many ideas from The Garden of Divine Songs, such as the search for happiness in the world in song 21, would later form the basis for some of Skovoroda’s philosophical treatises. Skovoroda’s originality, and his ability to approach the most cardinal problems of human existence, stem from his capacity to combine known motifs, borrowed from literary sources such as classical texts, the Bible, and ancient Ukrainian poetic works, with his own system of thinking that focuses on his philosophy of the heart. The complete poems of Skovoroda are appearing in their entirety here in English for the first time, accompanied by a guest introduction by prominent Ukrainian writer Valery Shevchuk. This title has been realised by a team of the following dedicated professionals: Translated by Michael M. Naydan with an introduction by Valery Shevchuk Translations Edited by Olha Tytarenko Maxim Hodak - Максим Ходак (Publisher), Max Mendor - Макс Мендор (Director), Ksenia Papazova (Managing Editor).
Mirror Sand: An Anthology of Russian Short Poems in English Translation
￥98.02
Edited, translated, and introduced by Anatoly Kudryavitsky, this bilingual anthology presents Russian short poems of the last half-century. It showcases thirty poets from Russia, and displays a variety of works by authors who all come from different backgrounds. Some of them are well-known not only locally but also internationally due to festival appearances and translations into European languages; among them are Gennady Aigi, Gennady Alexeyev, Vladimir Aristov, Sergey Biryukov, Konstantin Kedrov, Igor Kholin, Viktor Krivulin, Vsevolod Nekrasov, Genrikh Sapgir, and Sergey Stratanovsky. The next Russian poetic generation also features prominently in the collection. Such poets as Tatyana Grauz, Dmitri Grigoriev, Alexander Makarov-Krotkov, Yuri Milorava, Asya Shneiderman and Alina Vitukhnovskaya are the ones Russians like to read today. This anthology shows Russia looking back at itself, and reveals the post-World-War Russian reality from the perspective of some of the best Russian creative minds. Here we find a poetry of dissent and of quiet observation, of fierce emotions, and of deep inner thoughts.
Memoirs of My Dead Life
￥40.79
Your outlook on life is so different from mine that I can hardly imagine you being built of the same stuff as myself. Yet I venture to put my difficulty before you. It is, of course, no question of mental grasp or capacity or artistic endowment. I am, so far as these are concerned, merely the man in the street, the averagely endowed and the ordinarily educated. I call myself a Puritan and a Christian. I run continually against walls of convention, of morals, of taste, which may be all wrong, but which I should feel it wrong to climb over. You range over fields where my make-up forbids me to wander.

Simply Dirac
￥65.32
Paul Dirac?(1902–1984) was a brilliant mathematician and a 1933 Nobel laureate whose work ranks alongside that of Albert Einstein and Sir Isaac Newton. Although not as well known as his famous contemporaries Werner Heisenberg and Richard Feynman, his influence on the course of physics was immense. His landmark book,?The Principles of Quantum Mechanics, introduced that new science to the world and his “Dirac equation” was the first theory to reconcile special relativity and quantum mechanics. Dirac held the Lucasian Chair of Mathematics at Cambridge University, a position also occupied by such luminaries as Isaac Newton and Stephen Hawking. Yet, during his 40-year career as a professor, he had only a few doctoral students due to his peculiar personality, which bordered on the bizarre. Taciturn and introverted, with virtually no social skills, he once turned down a knighthood because he didn’t want to be addressed by his first name. Einstein described him as “balancing on the dizzying path between genius and madness.” In?Simply Dirac, author?Helge Kragh?blends the scientific and the personal and invites the reader to get to know both Dirac the quantum genius and Dirac the social misfit. Featuring cameo appearances by some of the greatest scientists of the 20th century and highlighting the dramatic changes that occurred in the field of physics during Dirac’s lifetime, this fascinating biography is an invaluable introduction to a truly singular man.

Am mplinit, la 3 martie anul acesta, 81 de ani. O via de om, cu bune i mai puin bune. Am fost martor i actor al multor evenimente, dintre care unele au schimbat cursul istoriei. n cteva dintre aceste schimbri se poate gsi i contribuia mea.[…] Trecerea n revist a istoriei celor 21 de ani de la Revoluia din Decembrie 1989, cu reuite i nereuite, cu experiene pozitive i negative, cu bune i cu rele, trebuie s fie prilej de nvminte pentru toi, s ne inspire pentru a gsi cile cele mai potrivite de redresare i de cuplare a Romniei la procesul n curs de construcie european, n condiiile adncirii procesului amplu de globalizare a economiei i a vieii sociale, n beneficiul tuturor cetenilor rii.“Sunt un om de stnga, nu neg i nu-mi reneg trecutul. Mi-l asum, cu toate ale lui. Dar nimeni nu-mi poate reproa lipsa bunei-credine n ceea ce am fcut. i nici faptul c nu a fi evoluat, c nu a fi nvat din leciile pe care viaa i oamenii mi le-au dat.[…] Nu m-a interesat puterea n sine i nu am folosit puterea pe care am avut-o pentru a face ru sau n interes personal. Puterea devine interesant doar n momentul n care ai un proiect, i ea devine un instrument pentru materializarea lui.Nimic nu corupe mai mult dect puterea. i trebuie s fii, moral vorbind, extrem de puternic pentru a nu te lsa corupt de putere. mi place s cred c pe mine puterea nu m-a corupt. Muli au fost uimii de modul firesc n care s-a fcut transferul de putere n 1996, dup ce domnul Emil Constantinescu a ctigat alegerile prezideniale. Cei care se ateptau la altceva nu m cunosc. Nu mi-am dorit puterea, n 1989, ci mi-am asumat o responsabilitate. Era normal s fiu primul care s respecte regulile la structurarea crora lucrase.[…] Formal, suntem o ar cu toate instituiile i mecanismele unei ri europene, membr a Uniunii Europene. n realitate, lucrurile sunt departe de a fi normale. Am fost i sunt contient de faptul c acestea sunt marile noastre slbiciuni, cele care ne mpiedic s progresm. Nu tiu s existe o soluie miraculoas care s ne vindece de aceste pcate. Cred doar c libertatea de circulaie i dreptul romnilor de a munci n Europa vor permite, n timp, schimbarea profund a Romniei.“
