L'art d'aimer, selon Ovide, c'est d'abord l'art de séduire. Bien avant que les agences de rencontres et les entreprises de séduction modernes existent, Ovide prodiguait ses conseils. C'était au 1er siècle de notre ère, mais lorsqu'on l'entend dire : " Qui que tu sois, n'aie qu'une faible confiance dans les charmes trompeurs de la beauté ; ajoute d'autres avantages à ces mérites du corps. Ce qui gagne surtout les cœurs, c'est une adroite complaisance".

Art Unbidden, Soul Unhidden is a poetry book that contains 100 poems on the theme of lessons learned that seemingly rose unwanted from the subconscious realms that often surprised the writer or caught them off-guard, with hope that something valuable can be passed onto the listener by what has been created through such a process.

Sarah Bosetti hat einen Weg gefunden, die Demokratie zu retten: mit Poesie gegen Populismus! Wohin man schaut: Weltuntergang. Doch Klimawandel, Krieg und Krisen wären zu meistern, wenn die Menschen ihnen mit ehrlicher Vernunft begegnen würden. Im Kampf gegen Fake News, Diskriminierung und Diskursverschiebung nimmt Sarah Bosetti sich einige der schönsten, schlimmsten oder absurdesten populistischen Aussagen bekannter Persönlichkeiten vor – von Alice Schwarzer über Olaf Scholz bis Wladimir Putin – und beantwortet sie mit klugen, bissigen und witzigen Gedichten.

The Divergent series is delighting the world with its epic of Tris and Four struggling through revolutions to create a better world. But there are deeper meanings and symbols beneath the surface. Why is it fitting that teens numbered three and four should remake the world? How many Biblical references appear? Why are ravens and crows such popular symbols? And what themes and images does this series share with The Hunger Games and all the other dystopias, past and present?

Cameron McGill’s debut collection of poetry, In the Night Field, spotlights the effects of memory: its startling artistry, varied discontents, and casual fallibility. These poems chart the complex relationship between mental health and place; the difficult paths home can be lonely and circuitous, the emotional coordinates we map along the way a reminder of those intimate regions that hold and haunt us. Between the attentive, persistent self and the longed-for, absent other arises a fragmented conversation, an exchange that’s in a constant state of arrival.

I’ve been a professional actor since the precocious age of 12. When I was five, I decided that there could not possibly be any better job than playing and making people laugh. That became my path, and although I’m not a household name, I’ve been able to play and make people laugh most of my life - and somehow pay the bills in the process. “Not bad”, says I.

The Art of Science is a short collection of free verse by G. Michael Vasey.

Questa è una raccolta di due testi, di Ovidio e di Catulle Mendès, che l'editore ha sottotitolato come “fisiologia comparata degli amori degli antichi romani e dei parigini moderni”, affidando la prefazione dell'opera appunto ad un fisiologo, il medico e scienziato Paolo Mantegazza. Ma è inutile dire che l'accenno alla medicina è volutamente paradossale, tanto il celebrato amore terreno sia impenetrabile agli innumerevoli sforzi di razionalizzarlo.

So I’m stepping back from the girl who thinks of myself as meek and incapable or crazy and a quitter. I need to remember all of the power it took to start all of the things I have started. I need to remember the person who finds herself lost in the woods and finds her legs under her and walks barefoot for her own survival.

Here is poetry looking at life. A particular perspective on life which will be alien to many and yet I know through performing these poems in their music form they speak to the hearts and minds of so many others who share my distaste for a treadmill kind of existence. This is my most personal poetry collection to date, here we have quite literally my life’s work or I suppose more accurately it encompasses the story of my journey of personal growth at the point of penning these poems and creating the music album using the poetry as my lyrics.

A brotherhood of angels prepares for battle, tears are shed in heaven, and fire leaps from the holy altar. Thus the stage is set, a showdown looming that will decide the course of a man's soul and with it, all of humanity.

New York Times best-selling author J. A.

What do Sherlock Holmes, Star Wars, A Christmas Carol, and Charlotte's Web have in common? Seven identical and profound themes. Actually we use only these four stories as examples of seven inescapable themes, found in whole or in part in every story in every medium from books to movies. I believe these themes are inescapable, not because our culture imposes them upon creators but because they reflect our deepest longings.
