Cum se vede orbirea. ?ntr-o colec?ie de eseuri ?n care studiul biografic se ?mbin? p?n? la indistinc?ie cu fic?iunea, Julián Fuks face o incursiune puternic subiectiv? ?n via?a ?i opera a trei dintre cei mai cunoscu?i scriitori ai secolului XX. Inova?ia ?n literatur? nu este singurul punct comun al celor trei biografii, cel asupra c?ruia Fucks se va opri fiind orbirea, ca incident care ?i va afecta pe to?i. Trecerea de la lumea perceput? cu toate cele cinci sim?uri la universul ?n care culorile sunt proiec?ii ale min?ii ?i vagi amintiri difer? de la un autor la altul, iar Fucks va descrie ?i completa prin propria imagina?ie creatoare felul ?n care Borges, Jo?o Cabral ?i Joyce – deveni?i personaje – aleg s?-?i gestioneze limitele senzoriale.

B?rba?ii vin de pe Marte, femeile de la coafor este urmarea best-sellerului Femeile vin de pe Venus, b?rba?ii de la b?ut. Ambele volume s-au n?scut ?n paginile s?pt?m?nalului satiric Ca?avencii. De?i pare c? e vorba de un ?r?zboi ?ntre sexe“, ?n realitate, autorii n-au dus niciodat? un r?zboi, ci un dialog. R?nd pe r?nd, toate stereotipurile care circul? despre via?a de cuplu au fost puse ?ntr-o lumin? umoristic?, eliberatoare. Primul volum s-a bucurat de o primire extraordinar? din partea publicului, ating?nd ?n mai pu?in de doi ani de la lansare un tiraj de aproape 20.000 de exemplare. Ne face pl?cere s? v? oferim acum continuarea lui, const?nd ?ntr-o nou? colec?ie de texte pline de umor, inteligen?? ?i autoironie. * * * De unde naiba s? ?tie b?rbatul care-i sunt hainele murdare??? ??i miroase, timp de dou? ore, toate c?rpele de pe scaunul-cuier. Le ?mparte ?n dou? gr?mezi, unele curate ?i altele murdare. C?nd, transpirat, anun?? c? a terminat, bestia de so?ie se ?nfiin?eaz? ?i ia ambele mormane la sp?lat. — De ce le iei ?i pe-alea curate? o ?ntreab?, confuz. — Pentru c? sunt jegoase. ?i d?-le ?i pe toate alea de pe tine, c? put. — Dar sunt proasp?t sp?late, le-am luat de-abia acum o s?pt?m?n?. Vr?jitoarea e ?ns? de neclintit. ?i ?ntoarce spatele ?i iese, l?s?ndu-l gol, dezorientat, umilit ?i mirosindu-se la subra?. * * * C?nd e o hain? murdar?? C?nd te-ai uitat la ea. Ai p?ng?rit-o cu privirea ta. E ca ?i cum s-a frecat un pechinez ?n c?lduri pe ea, trebuie aruncat? la sp?lat. Multe femei stau la u?a ?ifonierului ?i te urm?resc c?nd ??i alegi haine: — Haaaa, tricou atins, tricou ?mbr?cat, tricou ?mpu?iiiiit!

n lirica decadent a lui Pierre Lous (18701925), actul erotic are valene mistice i chiar religioase. Poemele sale reproduc un adevrat ritual de adoraie.Pierre Lous ncepe ca secesionist (plin de langori i crnuri fezandate) i/sau ca prerafaelit, ca s continue,n lo stile floreale, ca n, bunoar, celebrele Chansons de Bilitis, scriere apocrif a unei aazise discipole din vechea Grecie a Sapphidei, transpus muzical de civa mari compozitori (printre acetia, Debussy) i tradus, de muli ani, i n romn, ca una ce, antic fiind, devine acceptabil cum este, printre altele, Ars amatoria a surghiunitului la Tomis“ – erban Foar.

„C? Lucia Cuciureanu era nu numai predispus?, dar ?i preg?tit? de zbenguial? liric? se vedea deja din volumul las? apa s? curg?, unde lucrarea principal? era f?cut? de verv? ?i de inteligen??. Nici aici, în noua carte (o sut? de kilometri mai la nord), nu lucreaz? altcineva în locul lor. Textul e un joc de compozi?ie cu regul? de imprevizibilit??i cât mai spontane (pe principiul «s? fie u?or ilogic» totul) ?i cu gândul s? par? fermec?toare. A?a ar ?i p?rea dac? din loc în loc n-ar c?dea, în plin? euforie ludic? (inclusiv intra-textual?, nu doar referen?ial? la tot pasul), câte-un strop de ghea?? sau câte-o imagine de frison (de genul lini?tii «din fereastr?/ca un pumn în plex» ori al «creierului strivit de ?enile» ce «pare o poian? cu brându?e» ?.a.) care magnetizeaz? anxios pulberea de nota?ii existen?iale.“ - Al.

Din nord, dup? o experien?? de dasc?l la ?coala din Ieud, Ioan Es. Pop a naufragiat prin ’88, ?n Capital? ca muncitor pe un ?antier, mai apoi, dup? ’89, ca redactor la Luceaf?rul, izbutind s?-?i transforme naufragiul ?n descoperire esen?ial?, precum eroul lui Defoe. Cu migal?, cu entuziasm, cu r?bdare, cu Vineri, Robinson a f?cut din naufragiul s?u o terapeutic? a oric?rei alien?ri, inclusiv a celei de sine ?nsu?i. Cu talent, cu intui?ie, cu imagina?ie, cu nou?zeci?tii, Ioan Es. Pop ?i-a convertit naufragiul ?ntr-o splendid? revocare dramatic-liric? a neantului zilnic, cum numai poe?ilor de tot li se poate ?nt?mpla. Ieudul f?r? ie?ire este expresia plin? de prospe?ime poetic? a cestei convertiri. Lauren?iu Ulici

Plutarch's Morals, Ethical Essays
Plutarch's Morals, Ethical Essays
Plutarch
¥8.09
From the Preface: "Plutarch, who was born at Chaeronea in Boeotia, probably about A.D. 50, and was a contemporary of Tacitus and Pliny, has written two works still extant, the well-known _Lives_, and the less-known _Moralia_. The _Lives_ have often been translated, and have always been a popular work. Great indeed was their power at the period of the French Revolution. The _Moralia_, on the other hand, consisting of various Essays on various subjects (only twenty-six of which are directly ethical, though they have given their name to the _Moralia_), are declared by Mr. Paley "to be practically almost unknown to most persons in Britain, even to those who call themselves scholars." According to Wikipedia: "Lucius Mestrius Plutarchus (c. AD 46 - 120 — commonly known in English as Plutarch — was a Roman historian (of Greek ethnicity), biographer, essayist, and Middle Platonist. Plutarch was born to a prominent family in Chaeronea, Boeotia, a town about twenty miles east of Delphi. His known works consist of the Parallel Lives and the Moralia."

According to Wikipedia: "Washington is seen as a symbol of the United States and republicanism in practice. His devotion to civic virtue made him an exemplary figure among early American politicians. Washington died in 1799, and in his funeral oration, Henry Lee said that of all Americans, he was "first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen." Washington has been consistently ranked by scholars as one of the greatest U.S. Presidents."

Herman Melville
¥8.09
Biography of a soldier in the American Revolution. Melville explains, "Biography, in its purer form, confined to the ended lives of the true and brave, may be held the fairest meed of human virtue--one given and received in entire disinterestedness--since neither can the biographer hope for acknowledgment from the subject, nor the subject at all avail himself of the biographical distinction conferred. Israel Potter well merits the present tribute--a private of Bunker Hill, who for his faithful services was years ago promoted to a still deeper privacy under the ground, with a posthumous pension, in default of any during life, annually paid him by the spring in ever-new mosses and sward." According to Wikipedia: "Herman Melville (August 1, 1819 – September 28, 1891) was an American novelist, short story writer, essayist and poet. His first two books gained much attention, though they were not bestsellers, and his popularity declined precipitously after only a few years. By the time of his death he had been almost completely forgotten, but his longest novel, Moby-Dick — largely considered a failure during his lifetime, and most responsible for Melville's fall from favor with the reading public — was recognized in the 20th century as one of the chief literary masterpieces of both American and world literature."

As the result of a famous trial, he suffered a dramatic downfall and was imprisoned for two years of hard labour after being convicted of the offence of 'gross indecency.'"

Robert Louis Stevenson
¥8.09
Classic travelogue/memoir. According to Wikipedia: "Robert Louis (Balfour) Stevenson ( 1850 - 1894), was a Scottish novelist, poet, and travel writer, and a leading representative of Neo-romanticism in English literature. He was the man who "seemed to pick the right word up on the point of his pen, like a man playing spillikins", as G. K. Chesterton put it. He was also greatly admired by many authors, including Jorge Luis Borges, Ernest Hemingway, Rudyard Kipling, Vladimir Nabokov, and J. M. Barrie. Most modernist writers dismissed him, however, because he was popular and did not write within their definition of modernism. It is only recently that critics have begun to look beyond Stevenson's popularity and allow him a place in the canon."

John Stuart Mill

According to Wikipedia: "John Stuart Mill (20 May 1806 – 8 May 1873), English philosopher, political theorist, political economist, civil servant and Member of Parliament, was an influential British Classical liberal thinker of the 19th century whose works on liberty justified freedom of the individual in opposition to unlimited state control. He was a proponent of utilitarianism, an ethical theory developed by Jeremy Bentham, although his conception of it was very different from Bentham's. Hoping to remedy the problems found in an inductive approach to science, such as confirmation bias, he clearly set forth the premises of falsification as the key component in the scientific method."
