When Black Beauty is trained to carry a rider on his back, or to pull a carriage behind him, he finds it hard at first.

But in the nineteenth century many people were cruel to their horses, whipping them and beating them, and using them like machines until they dropped dead.

Partisan de la position allongée, Oblomov ne trouve le bonheur que dans le sommeil. Ni son ami Stolz, incarnation de l`énergie et de l`esprit d`entreprise, ni la belle Olga avec qui se nouera l`embryon d`une idylle, ne parviendront à le tirer de sa léthargie. Entreprendre et aimer sont décidément choses trop fatigantes. Grand roman de mœurs, Oblomov offre une satire mordante des petits fonctionnaires et des barines russes. La première partie du texte constitue un véritable morceau de bravoure, irrésistible de drôlerie, décrivant les multiples tentatives toutes vouées à l`échec d`Oblomov pour sortir de son lit. La profondeur du roman et la puissance du personnage...

This work tells the story of man`s fascination with butterflies, as symbols, as objects of beauty, and of obsession - in the tradition of Susan Orlean`s "The Orchid Thief". From Hindu mythology to Aztec sacrifices, butterflies have served as a metaphor for resurrection and transformation. Even during World War II, children in a Polish death camp scratched hundreds of butterflies onto the wall of their barracks. But as Sharman Apt Russell points out in this rich and lyrical meditation, butterflies have above all been objects of obsession. From the beastly horned caterpillar whose blood helps it count time, to the peacock butterfly with wings that hiss like a snake, Russell traces butterflies through their life cycles, exploring the...
