American poet, critic, and short-story writer Edgar Allan Poe is universally recognized for his cultivation of the macabre in fiction. His stories are characterized by an original kind of supernatural horror, often using the awareness of death as a catalyzing force in its own right. His tales and poems brim with psychological depth and intense imagery, made vivid through his musical language and hypnotic rhythms, which are especially captivating when heard aloud.

Dois ensaios em que Tristão de Alencar de Araripe Júnior explora personagens públicas de seu tempo. Em "O fetiche", a Rainha Vitória está no centro de seus comentários (críticos), ao tempo em que ela celebrava seu jubileu de ouro. "Viagens de Gulliver", por sua vez, nada fala da obra de Johnattan Swift, mas a obra clássica que empresta seu título ao ensaio serve como metáfora para enaltecer a figura do pedagogo Carlos Jansen, que valorizava a literatura infanto-juvenil entre os jovens estudantes brasileiros do final do século XIX.

There is a day in March when people of Irish descent, in whole or part, and those who just wish to partake of the Shamrock Isle’s legendary hospitality, come together the world over to celebrate the world’s most popular national festival: St Patrick’s day. That day is March 17th, the traditional anniversary of his death in 561. Saint Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland and is acknowledged as the one who brought Christianity to its shores and drove out the snakes.

Le haiku, poème traditionnel japonais, "sorte de balafre légère tracée dans le temps", comme dit Roland Barthes, réussit à exprimer en peu de mots ce que l'encre suscite en quelques traits de pinceau dans la calligraphie ou la peinture : un moment privilégié, un instant de lumière, un éveil. L'un et l'autre naissent d'un même souffle, d'un même élan, au terme d'un intense recueillement.

Angels are undeniably associated with religion and more usually Christianity, Islam and Judaism. Often they are seen as supernatural beings, benevolent celestial intermediaries interposed between God, Heaven and humanity. Obviously there are complications, a fact that our classic poets through the centuries, including Alexander Pope, Edmund Spenser, Radclyffe Hall and Hafiz, use as they write verse to explain, to reveal and to help us understand exactly why Angels are so prevalent amongst our thoughts.
