"US" Poets Foreign Poets / Noi poeți "americani" poeți străini

"With its programmer, algorithmic generator, and input or human authored text on one side, and the (potentially, or temporarily) final text(s) and reader on the other, "US" Poets Foreign Poets illustrates how poems stemming from disparate creative presuppositions, nations, or creative modalities--and otherwise might be perceived as strange bunkmates--may be effectively bridled and expand together through technological lenses. As a result of Herculean efforts by its editors, this anthology illuminates how writing that appears to be on the fringe directly links to what has been determined to be mainstream. This volume, with its built-in transcreation, is effusive with poetry from the human within and the algorithmic generator. Bursting with substance blasting on and on and on and on, the book further proceeds to uniquely chart how disconnected approaches to language may be distinctly connected. Applied and rigorous investigative scholarship (and editorship) in Digital Humanities herein brings to readers not only a hefty assemblage of diverse voices, but, through algorithm(ag)ic processes delivers fascinating graphical partnering amongst its contents. There's a propulsiveness to this compilation that is seemingly unprecedented, a written compendium that refracts, and makes something with its own work. Conceptual policers and polarity are warlings, sometimes dismissively casting out cats for medi(a)cament. Metalurgically heated at conversion, poetry-beam convertible larks become aview within. Strategical stratiforms it seizes! This fiery first autoscopy becomes poetry's alto alternate, which matters because the looney hobnailed beach of tradition (which manoeuvres like pterodactyls into psychologies and the surprise latchkey of being in reverse) is surrounded, lashing reviewers to lathy mythologers who have conspired to produce this collection.

Earthly Delights

Earthly Delights brings together a number of substantial and original scholarly studies by international scholars currently working on the history of food in the Ottoman Empire and East-Central Europe. It offers new empirical research, as well as surveys of the state of scholarship in this discipline, with special emphasis on influences, continuities and discontinuities in the culinary cultures of the Ottoman Porte, the Balkans and East-Central Europe between the 17th and 19th centuries. Some contributions address economic aspects of food provision, the development and trans-national circulation of individual dishes, and the role of merchants, diplomats and travellers in the transmission of culinary trends. Others examine the role of food in the construction of national and regional identities in contact zones where local traditions merged or clashed with imperial (Ottoman, Habsburg) and West-European influences.
Straini

Traducere de Iuliana Oprina Distins cu Premiul Yamamoto Shūgorō în anul 1988, romanul Străini stă la baza a două ecranizări: prima, The Discarnates, în 1988, regia Obayashi Nobuhiko, iar cea de-a doua, All of Us Strangers, în 2023, regia Andrew Haigh, cu Andrew Scott, Paul Mescal, Claire Foy și Jamie Bell. Într-o metropolă devenită un sufocant labirint de trupuri și povești, Hideo Harada, scenarist de succes, se hotărăște să facă o plimbare pe străzile cartierului copilăriei sale, în Asakusa, la Tōkyō. Într-o sală de spectacole, întâlnește un bărbat care pare a fi dublul perfect al tatălui său, mort în urmă cu treizeci de ani într-un teribil accident. Din acest punct al romanului, supranaturalul urban preia comanda cu o dezinvoltură tipică literaturii japoneze: în loc să descindă solemn ca două apariții cețoase, părinții morți ai lui Hideo urmăresc meciuri de baseball și se entuziasmează la jocuri de cărți; în loc de voci guturale și scârțâit de podele, se aude huruitul neîncetat al traficului din marele oraș. Cei doi nu pot fi decât o crudă halucinație. Deși începe să sufere de o misterioasă boală ale cărei semne le sunt limpezi doar celorlalți, iar iubita lui îl imploră să se rupă din mrejele acestei fascinații morbide, Hideo nu-și poate înfrâna dorința de a le sta alături părinților săi din altă lume.
