« 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...

Dans ces climats brûlants, où les hommes, uniquement occupés d`un commerce et d`un gain barbares, semblent, pour la plupart, avoir perdu les idées et les sentiments qui pourraient leur en inspirer l`horreur, une jeune fille, nommée Pauline de Gercourt, avait été mariée à l`âge de treize ans à un négociant fort riche, et plus avide encore de le devenir. Orpheline et mal élevée par un tuteur ami de son époux, et tout à fait dans le même genre, elle épousa M. de Valville, sans connaître la valeur de l`engagement qu`elle prenait, sans avoir réfléchi ni sur le présent ni sur l`avenir.

Ensuite est intervenu l`outil, le baton, le pinceau. Un beau jour, on s`est mis a peindre au couteau. Regardez le travail d`un jack l`eventreur. Et puis on a invente le pistolet. Peindre au pistolet apportait quelque chose de definitif et radical. Et maintenant, a l`ere terroriste, on peint a la bombe, dans la ville, dans le metro.

One of the first depictions of marine fauna comes from Samuel Fallours, who was in the service of the Dutch East India Company. On the island of Ambon, one of the Moluccas, he made drawings of fish and other marine organisms of the Indian Ocean and brought them back to Holland in 1712. His drawings belong to a number of sets of similar drawings, depicting hundreds of animals, mostly fish but also crustaceans, insects, a dugong, and even a mermaid. Some of these became the basis for 18th-century publications, among them Louis Renard`s Poissons, Ecrevisses et Crabes and Francois Valentijn`s Verhandeling der Ongemeene Visschen van Amboina, a chapter in his Oud en Nieuw Oost-Indien. These beautiful, elaborately detailed and brilliantly...

Tropical Asia is one of the culturally richest regions of the world. This lavishly photographed book is a sequel to the highly successful Tropical Architecture and Interiors (1994). It continues in its celebration, albeit selectively, of sensual qualities found in the tactile buildings of the region. The architecture of the tropics is indeed a delightful synthesis of simple materiality, consummate craftsmanship and rich moods. Many of these exclusive enclaves and private retreats, designed for an unabashedly hedonistic contemporary lifestyle, are a poetic response to the tropical climate. Others are inspired by a reverence for the unique traditions as well as the pristine environments in which they are located. The architects`...
Miller's groundbreaking first novel, banned in Britain for almost thirty years, now reinvigorated in a new Harper Perennial Modern Classics edition. A penniless and as yet unpublished writer, Henry Miller arrived in Paris in 1930. Leaving behind a disintegrating marriage and an unhappy career in America, he threw himself into the low-life of bohemian Paris with unwavering gusto. A fictional account of Miller's adventures amongst the prostitutes and pimps, the penniless painters and writers of Montparnasse, Tropic of Cancer is an extravagant and rhapsodic hymn to a world of unrivalled eroticism and freedom. Tropic of Cancer's 1934 publication in France was hailed by Samuel Beckett as 'a momentous event in the history...

Tropical Design is not an established architectural style, but a collective description of architecture and interior design in tropical countries, designed by architects from around the equator. The term often calls to mind the association of an island paradise which is an interpretation by the Western world and the tourism industry: A bamboo hut under palm trees, white sandy beaches, crystal clear water and rattan furniture situated on a spacious terrace. However, the tropical architecture presented in this book is more than that. Формат: 17,5 см х 23,5 см.
