Little by little, we all learned something in some way… And like Onegin, I was passing my life way. But by old age, all the experience appeared, Perhaps, someone would like to read it or to hear.

« Tristia dont le titre est emprunte a Ovide est un retour a la culture et a la terre ou Mandelstam situe les sources de la poesie : Homere, Ovide, Catulle, et la Crimee, les contrees de la mer Noire qui s`etendent jusqu`aux monts du Caucase, et qui, pour le poete, sont inseparables du paysage historique, culturel et geographique de la Mediterranee. Ici convergent la pensee juive, grecque et chretienne. C`est aussi, avec les iles Fortunees, le pays fabuleux de l`Age d`or. Le poete vient y chercher le mot vivant dans sa purete originelle. Cette quete du mot retrouve, du mot neuf, est le motif central de plusieurs poemes de Tristia ou il apparait associe a d`autres themes, dans un poeme d`amour comme Tristia, ou dans l`admirable poeme La...

The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman took fiction into unknown realms, combining an entirely new concept in form with an idiosyncratic type of sentimental comedy. The publication of the first two of nine volumes brought the clergyman, Laurence Sterne, instant celebrity, but the novel`s exuberant mixture of bawdry and virtuous feeling also provided considerable moral outrage, which the author relished. An amorphous mass of inconsequential incidents, musings, reminiscences and countless hilarious digressions into side issues of the vaguest tangential relevance, make up this engaging anti-novel which has no beginning, middle or end, and is dominated by the author`s vibrant personality which commands the reader`s active...
