Mucus Before Your First Period

Review: The Famous-Roman writer - reader

In this reader, presented the 30 most important representative of the literature of ancient Rome. be illuminated

: Plautus, Ennius, Cato the Elder, Terence, Varro, Cicero, Caesar, Lucretius, Catullus, Sallust, Virgil, Vitruvius, Horace, Livy, Propertius and Tibullus, Sulpicia, Ovid, Phaedrus, Seneca, Apicius , Petronius, Pliny the Elder, Martial, Tacitus, Juvenal, Pliny the Younger, Suetonius, Gellius and Hygine.

One learns more precise name, the dates of life, the literary genre in which the author wrote, and his works. Then, we also revealed who was the corresponding author and he wrote the content. It has an opportunity in specially for the book translated texts read into that reads like everything was delivered and what is in each case.

In a review of all 30 authors to write something out, too far. Propertius and Tibullus were, for example, for a whole lyrical genre: the subjective love elegy. They published their books about 27/26. BC jealousy, heartache and longing are the consequences of love in the two poets. Tibullus writes not without reason: "Evil Amor I wish I could once your arrows, may see / Even still broken the bow / torches extinguished his / You torment me ..."( quote!: S. 94). Mir war bislang nicht bekannt, dass Goethe in seinen "Römischen Elegien" das Versmaß von Properz und Tibull übernahm und auch Rilke in seinen "Duineser Elegien" Anleihen bei Properz und Tibull genommen hat.

Wer Ovid war, wissen nicht nur jene, die Lateinunterricht hatten. In seinem Lehrgedicht "Liebeskunst" (Ars Amandi), erschienen im Jahre 1, lehrte der Dichter den Leser, wie und wo er beispielsweise ein Mädchen kennenlernt, wie man es für sich gewinnt und wie die Liebe bestehen und spannend bleibt, (vgl.: S. 102). Man hat Gelegenheit auch hier Auszüge aus dem Lehrgedicht zu lesen und wird mit dem letzten Vers der "Metamorphosen" konfrontiert. Ich ahnte nicht, wie stark der Einfluss der Werke Ovids auf die Kunst und Literatur des Mittelalters, der Renaissance, der Neuzeit und der Moderne war. Nicht nur in der Literatur, sondern auch in der bildenden Kunst und in der Musik kommt der Einfluss Ovids zur Geltung.

Mir gefällt, wie mit wenigen Sätzen Senecas Philosophie, die bekanntermaßen eine angewandte Ethik ist, dem Leser zugänglich gemacht wird.

Die Tatsache, dass man Gelegenheit hat, in viele Originaltextübersetzungen hineinzulesen, macht für mich das Buch besonders reizvoll, denn mir waren nicht alle Texte der Autoren geläufig. Nach der Leküre der Textauszüge werde ich gewiss den ein oder anderen Read full text and review. Especially the poetry of poets Propertius and Tibullus.

Of the scattered sentences has fallen from me that Sallust best. It reads: "Happiness makes people happy, adversity make him great." I think the sentence is so true today as 2,000 years ago.

Carnival Cruises Babysitting

Review: The celebrity-lovers of the antique-A reader

In this truly beautiful reading book presents the 28 most important love affair of the Greco-Roman antiquity, but does not begin the book with a Greek or Roman love poem, but with the "triplets on love" by Berthold Brecht, which I consider myself very much and have been cited elsewhere.

In the introduction we learn that the author Angela Dierichs by the life stories of ancient lovers intends to convey to readers in terms of their current love tips and sensibilities that, while the outlined couples not meet today's needs. The areas addressed


: Alcestis and Admetus, Alcmene and Zeus, Poseidon and Amphitrite, Aphrodite and Adonis, Aphrodite and Achish, Aphrodite and Ares, Arethusa and Alpheus, Ariadne and Dionysus, and Aspasia Perikles, Baucis und Philemon, Breseis und Archill, Eurydike und Orpheus, Helena und Paris, Hera und Zeus, Hero Leander, Kalypso und Odysseus, Kleopatra und Caesar, Medea und Iason, Penelope und Hades, Poppaea und Nero, Psyche und Eros, Rhodopis und Charaxos, Roxane und Alexander, Selene und Endymion, Theodora und Justinian.


Jedes dieser Paare steht für für eine bestimmte Problematik, Kleopatra beispielsweise für die Symbiose von Erotik und Politik, Poppaea und Nero für eine Beziehung, die ein Gemisch aus Liebe, Frevel und Intrige darstellt.


Zu den einzelnen Liebespaaren erhält man konkrete Daten. Zum einen erfährt man, wer die Protagonisten sind, such as the nature of their relationship was, how many children they had and who their parents. In addition to outlining their appearance and the immutable characteristics and are called the respective residences.


is then presented the love story and held in the following brief post-antique side glances. Finally, finally, gives excerpts from texts of ancient writers and philosophers who have dealt with the mentally respective lovers.


Sun Plutarch writes in regard to Cleopatra's charms: "For in and of itself was her beauty, as they say, not as spectacular, and by the way that they at first sight beguiled, but in handling it had a compelling charm and her form, coupled with the winning ways of their conversation and in all, surround your grace leaving a sting. It was a pleasure to listen to her voice "(quote p. 93).


This quote from Plutarch makes it clear that it is not necessarily the beauty had to be to get admitted in ancient love relationships the female part. beautiful, attractive and educated but was Aspasia of Miletus. She and Pericles developed a passionate love affair that lasted more than 10 years. Because it was different than the Athenian of the time, they tried to marginalize them. She sought a salon spirited chattering ladies at what did not please everyone. Pericles was fascinated by her intellectual alertness and her charming charisma. Linda Marie Gunter, quoted in the book, writes clearly in her analysis in 1994 that was not a courtesan Aspasia, (see: p. 49). Women like her has been imputed in such a time like everything.


The most moving I feel the story of Orpheus and Eurydice, "perhaps because it is so sad, to tell the story like no one can desire for true love.


The book teaches us that we should hear in your heart things on our hearts that love and happiness is rarely permanent.

Scoliosis Extra Vertebrae

Review: Massimo Marini Rolf Dobelli

The writer Rolf Dobelli (Top 10 reviewer on Amazon) is a quotation from his novel Georg Büchner's "Woyzeck", 5th Scene ahead, "" South-North! Ha! Ha! Ha!. Oh, he is stupid, very stupid disgusting. Woyzeck, he is a good man, a good man, but he has no morals! The morality, if one is moral. "After the end of the novel again follows a quotation from Büchner's drama Woyzeck good. You're a good man, a good person. But you think too much, the exhausted, you look always look so incited. The discourse has attacked me quite a bit. `Go now and race is not so;..? slowly, pretty slowly down the street "

Even before I started reading the book made me curious about the quotes, what do they do these two quotes with the contents of the book there ? Dobellis parallels between the protagonist and surrounded by Büchner's drama

Wikipedia Büchner's drama as follows: "The simple soldier Franz Woyzeck, his girlfriend Marie and the common illegitimate child, just live like it on the edge of society, to support attempts, works as an errand boy for his captain. In addition, it can be by an unscrupulous doctor as a test subject to pea diet Change in order to receive an additional merit of his meager pay, he completely delivers on Marie (and child). Captain and doctor Woyzeck use physically and psychologically from him and humiliate in public. Marie begins an affair with a drum major. Woyzecks burgeoning suspicion is it not friendly minded people stirred up, until he caught his rival Marie and dancing in the pub. He hears voices commanding him to kill the unfaithful Marie. Because his money is not sufficient for buying a gun, he picks up a knife and stabs Marie in a forest near a lake. "


I still had not started the book to read the pages, looking for a brief illuminating summary of what was to decide whether I'm going with this novel, or rather not found on page 358 that what I was looking for. "Massismos lifelong experiment in steadfastness Its amazing changes here from the Italian. immigrant child to Zurich socialites. From the Opera House protesters to the Opera house sponsor. From the existentialists to the contractor. From the tunnel drill for Stradivari owners. From left to right. From the depths to the heights. From south to north. His monstrous movement on the coordinate grid of life. And then the flash a woman who destroyed everything. The size of his rise and fall. The chronology of terror. "


Oh, dachte ich, das klingt interessant. Diesen Roman werde ich lesen.


Die Lebensgeschichte des Protagonisten Massimo Marini wird von dessen Anwalt erzählt, der von seinem Klienten fasziniert ist, weil dessen Leben alles andere als gradlinig verlaufen ist, auch weil Massimo von der Natur so viele Vorzüge geschenkt bekam- Schönheit, Intelligenz, Intellektualität, Kampfgeist, wenn es darum ging, seine Ideale oder auch einfach nur seine Ziele durchzusetzen.


Massimo ist das Kind italienischer Immigranten. Seine Kindheit in der Schweiz erlebt er in materiell schwierigen Verhältnissen. Seine fleißigen, aufstiegsbewussten Eltern schaffen es, Swiss citizenship to obtain. His father makes himself then as a freelance contractor. Massimo is an excellent student, one of the best in his class, is interested in philosophy, literature and at school in the drama group of the star. The role of Woyzeck begins his left-slip. His father does not like this development because he wants his son, his company and still continue not to unimagined heights leads.


Massimo enrolled after high school is not in architecture, as he pretends to be home, but instead secretly in philosophy. In 1979, he left Zurich, studied a semester at the Sorbonne and hoped for a resurgence of 1968. Massimo is an idealist who wants to fight against injustice, which holds according to Sartre, Camus and Cohn-Bendit lookout and longs for street barricades and tear gas, (see: p. 153). All this he finds in Paris does not go back to Zurich and is there for the approval of the costly renovation of the opera house active because he would rather see the money invested in an autonomous youth center. This leads to confrontations with the police, he is arrested. His father is disappointed in him. Massimo is now to Berlin, to enroll in literature and philosophy.


It's not his political experience he gained there, it verändern, sondern es ist das private Schicksal, das hier das erste Mal zuschlägt und ihm die Frau, in die er sich verliebt hat, auf tragische Weise nimmt. Als sein Vater stirbt, er daraufhin in der Schweiz eine tatkräftige junge Mitarbeiterin im Betrieb seines Vaters heiratet, nimmt er von allem, was davor war, vermeintlich Abschied und baut mit der diplomierten Bauingenieurin die Firma seines Vaters in der Weise auf, wie dieser sich dies erwünscht hat. Massimo gibt vor, Architekt zu sein. Doch nicht darin liegt seine größte Lebenslüge, sondern im Verleugnen all dessen, was ihm einst etwas bedeutet hat.


Dass er nach 20 Jahren seine Frau wegen einer Cellistin verlässt, hängt wohl weniger with his ascension consciousness finally be part of the Swiss upper classes together, as they accused him, but probably more with his repressed intellectual vocation. Massimo is not really a tunnel builder, his world is a spiritual one. That his two wives have cheated him, makes it clear that he has failed in life and that because he owned in everything he bought, he was never himself.


It is shocking that all women in the book, with the exception of Massimo's mother, can not be faithful. The infidelity of the student Clare and his wives Monica and Julia are the cause of Massimo's tragic history. How is it possible that such a beautiful, intelligent Man in fact is so unlucky with women? Does it related to the fact that women have a keen sense of when a man is standing next to him?


The characters in the book are worked out very well. The particularly been the case even on Julia, who is aged 35 years, pregnant by a 15 year old Raphael, the supposed son Massimo, and also the lawyer who does not suffer unduly from depression.

Most interesting is to read all the factual information about the tunnel. High - low and underground mining was for me been a closed book.

Woyzeck has far more in common with Massimo as you think. Not only that they are confronted with the infidelity of women, but also that both are humiliated in their authenticity, they make related to each other, but not to twin brothers.


Highly recommended.

Beach Voley Camel Toe

review: Indictment - Mark Schollmeyer

The blurb of this excellent, very exciting to read the book that I especially law students to his heart lay, But not only this, one can see that the author Mark Schollmeyer Law in Los Angeles, Hamburg und München studiert hat. Er arbeitet als Anwalt und betreibt neben seiner rechtlichen Arbeit Gerechtigkeitsforschung.

In seinem Buch berichtet er von einem jungen Anwalt, der mit viel Idealismus nach seinem Studium in einer großen Kanzlei zu arbeiten beginnt. Noch glaubt er an sich, noch ist er hungrig nach Gerechtigkeit. Schon bei seinem ersten Fall, bei dem es um vielfachen Kindesmissbrauch geht, überwindet er seine Ideale, weil er in erster Linie siegen möchte. Der Sieg erhöht seinen Bekanntheitsgrad, vergrößert damit auch die Chance irgendwann einmal Teilhaber in der Kanzlei zu werden. Als er den Prozess tatsächlich gewinnt, geht sein Stern in der Kanzlei auf.

Schollmeyer describes the case of child abuse and other cases, such as that of a trafficker, whose interests the young lawyer also represents, very precise and clear that clients who have large material resources, can always buy first-class defense, no matter what they done, and that has given way in large law firms to justice for a long time the filthy lucre, (cf,: p.26).

The author details in court, making clear what is the daily work of lawyers and repeatedly shows the cowardice of the people and their greed that leads to justice flouted is.

A headhunter gives the successful young lawyer in another prestigious law firm. There, however, he experienced essentially nothing more than before. It's always about money and a well-paying clients. The clients are chosen for their Liquididät, not whether they wronged, of which one wants to free her. The high fee invoice is in the foreground. A law firm is a business enterprise, and works according to the laws of economics. It is therefore to achieve the maximum profit. Moral scruples hardly anyone there.

The young lawyer in Schollmeyer's story is shaken when he finds out how the firm responds with a site closure, wen sie zu vertreten bereit ist und wen nicht. Es kommt der Zeitpunkt, wo für ihn das Maß voll ist und wo er den Sprung in die Selbstständigkeit wagen will. Er fragt sich eines Abends: "Bist du das? Derjenige, der sich früher mit Professoren und überhaupt jedem angelegt hat, wenn ihm etwas unrecht erschien? Derjenige, der aus Berufung Anwalt wurde? Oder bist du nur noch das Zerrbild dieses Anwalts? Derjenige, der zu feige und schwach ist, sich gegen den Druck des Geldes zu wehren? Derjenige, der den Mut und damit sich selbst verloren hat? Und sich aufgibt und sich nicht traut, sein Leben mit seinen Idealen zu leben."(Zitat: Seite 170).

Wie sich in der Folge zeigt, ist es fast aussichtslos, den steinigen Weg an idealistic lawyer to go and stay away from the pull of the gutdotierten to this lawyer's view reprehensible mandates of haggling mitigation, and the rapprochement with common but dubious methods (see: p. 215). If this young and dedicated lawyer manage to find a place where you work for the people and humanity, not just for money? Will he make it "the unspeakable greed prevalent in our time" (quote p. 221) leave at the door?

A densely written, really great book, which I hope it will be on the gift table many readers.

Communication Board Stroke Victim

review: The Homecoming (Hardcover)

Debauer Peter, the protagonist in Schlink's latest novel, embarks on the trail.
Will Debauer the beginning nor the author of a booklet novel, which he read as a teenager with his grandparents in Switzerland, find, he is looking for soon after by his believed to be dead father when he noticed that there was one and the same person acts.


Peter lives from childhood, turned back, because he did not really know his roots. His mother lets him in much in the dark, telling half-truths, to save him. Peters is the father of Swiss origin. His mother had once met during the Nazi period in Breslau.


elicited Like Peter, senior Debauer has assumed many identities in the course of his life. The Nazis, he was close. He wrote treatises, in which concepts such as chivalry wrong sophistry in its opposite, and have been misused for ideological purposes. Law had studied in Germany and the old Debauer booklet with novels kept his head above water before he went to the USA where it was under a different name as a law professor career. Wife and child he took care to leave a Swiss passport


Peter, himself a lawyer, wants his Vater kennen lernen und ihn stellen. Der rechtschaffene Sohn ist empört über das chamäleonartige Wesen seines Vaters und auch aufgebracht darüber, dass dieser als Professor es spitzfindig immer noch schafft, Begriffe unentdeckt zu verbiegen, indem er ihnen wortverdreherisch einen neuen , völlig fragwürdigen Inhalt zuordnet.


Worin liegt der Nutzen von Gerechtigkeit? Bei wieviel Kälte, Hunger, Druck, Angst ist der Lack der Zivilisation ab? Ab wann verraten sich die Menschen? Was ist das Böse? Muss man dem Bösen ins Auge schauen, um es in sich selbst und in anderen zu erkennen? Hat das Böse im vergangenen Jahrhundert aufgehört zu existieren oder lebt es fort solange es Menschen there? These are the questions with which Peter deals in search of the conceptual orientation of his father. While he finds the answers to these questions, the ever-restless seeker begins to calm down.


To really go home, you have a journey that can also be an intellectual process, have actually been completed. That's Barbara, Peters wise friend, he realized again and again. While Barbara helps him brighten his unexplained yesterday, and it succeeds Peter in this context, check out essential to ethical issues in thought, he allows himself to the woman he loves to return home fully, completely different than once Odysseus Penelope.

Vanity Unit With Toilet Built In

"Wetten, dass ..?" the hypocrisy is even more unbearable?

who spent the last few days not just in a secluded cave has probably noticed that betting in the past "that ..?"- show a young candidate named Samuel K . in the exercise of his bet suffered a serious accident (his doctors announced today that they have a complete recovery from his paralysis to keep "unlikely").

That's bad for the young man, and bad for his family or his immediate surroundings. But it's not bad "for all of Germany." Of course, throw out above all the media in our country dirt on him like vultures on carrion moldy. Everywhere they link the video of the accident and see the pictures after the fall, the director of ZDF, the image was not as sympathetic. All, of course again the BILD-Zeitung, the hypocritical Pharisees here so God knows not the first time is clear. This post the most esteemed of my PAGE blog describes what I mean.

But "serious journalists" smell the opportunity to improve the declining conditions of their clients. As is the "yaw rate" (sic), "sensationalism" (sic!) And the "settling of bets, dass ..?" "Wetten irresponsible" with its written that turn the keyboards. I do so, that they want to fill their article with something other than write only about the "extreme winter of the century," far too early snow ", and" exploding winter tire prices, "but maybe they might come to church in the village have?

was my opinion ...
    Samuel K.
  • not compelled to offer this bet / perform, but did so voluntarily. That the risk an injury here was larger bets than for example in memory or grape throwing, had to any party for obvious from the start
  • any permanent damage deserves a no fault car accident more compassion (on this thousand cases per year but does not write, unless it is is Lady Diana or any other so-called "celebrity" with which you can do edition). To say nothing of work or sports injuries (actually someone calls for the abolition of the professional game than the last several professional football died of heart attacks?)
  • have both the editorial and the moderators of "Wetten, dass ..?" respond appropriately and behave appropriately
  • is also no discernible change of the channel, bets last more dangerous in the program are increasing - especially if one thinks of the BMX bikers, once the roof of a house jumped - which already 2 years ago is
  • must not the ZDF Wetten, dass ...?" completely rethink, but the hacks their outpourings - and incidentally perhaps hammering again in the bulb that Samuel K. and his environment now probably above all peace and do want to have not presented together every day stolen photos / quotes from the life of the injured
overwhelmed, however, that these flies naturally. But after today's arrest von WikiLeaks-Gründer Assange können sie sich ja an einem anderen Thema austoben, von dem sie nichts verstehen. Da geht es ja immerhin um Vergewaltigungen von blonden Schwedinnen, da müssen sich doch bestimmt Fotos und Stimmen auftreiben lassen …
