Les fleurs du mal; Le spleen de Paris = The Flowers of Evil Paris Spleen: Selected Poems, Charles BaudelaireCharles Pierre Baudelaire (April 9, 1821 – August 31, 1867) was a French poet who also produced notable work as an essayist, art critic, and pioneering translator of Edgar Allan Poe. His most famous work, Les Fleurs du mal (The Flowers of Evil), expresses the changing nature of beauty in modern, industrializing Paris during the 19th century. Baudelaire's highly original style of prose-poetry influenced a whole generation of poets including Paul Verlaine, Arthur Rimbaud and Stéphane Mallarmé among many others. He is credited with coining the term "modernity" (modernité) to designate the fleeting, ephemeral experience of life in an urban metropolis, and the responsibility art has to capture that experience.تاریخ نخستین خوانش: روز هشتم ماه سپتامبر سال 1976 میلادیعنوان: ملال‌ پاریس‌ و برگزیده ای از گلهای‌ بدی‌؛ شعر و نثر: شارل‌ بودلر مترجم: محمدعلی اسلامی ندوشن؛ تهران، بنگاه ترجمه و نشر کتاب، 1341؛ در 47 و 250 ص؛ موضوع: ادبیات و شعر شاعران فرانسه - سده 19 ممحمدعلی اسلامی ندوشن نوشته: ملال‌ پاریس‌، و گلهای‌ بدی‌، گزیده‌ای‌ از شعر و نثر شارل‌ بودلر، شاعر فرانسوی‌ قرن‌ نوزدهم‌ است ‌(1821-1867) که‌ آنرا سالها پیش‌ به‌ زبان‌ فارسی‌ درآوردم‌. اگر بودلر مهم‌ترین‌ شاعر فرانسوی‌ نباشد به‌ نظر می‌رسد که‌ نافذترین‌ هست‌. و او را پیشوای‌ شعر نو در اروپا خوانده‌ اند در مقدّمة‌ این‌ کتاب‌ آمده‌ است‌: در زبان‌ فرانسه‌ هیچ‌ شاعری‌ چون‌ بودلر دستخوش‌ آن‌ همه‌ تعبیرهای‌ متناقض‌ و گوناگون‌ نبوده‌ است‌. دسته‌ ای‌ او را بازیگر و شیاد خوانده‌ اند و دسته‌ ای‌ دیگر پیام‌ آور؛ ایشان را هم‌ انقلابی‌ ای‌ عنان‌ گسیخته‌ شناخته‌ اند و هم‌ مرتجعی‌ نابکار، هم‌ مسیحی‌ ای‌ مؤمن‌ و هم‌ ملحدی‌ خدا نشناس‌، هم‌ فرزانه‌ و هم‌ دیوانه‌. گفته‌ اند که‌ جز مستحّق‌ فراموشی‌ نیست‌ و گفته‌ اند که‌ در همة‌ رؤیاها و آرمانهای‌ بشری‌ حضور دارد. خود او به‌ سبب‌ تناقض‌ هایش‌ در این‌ گمراه‌ کردن‌ بی‌ تأثیر نبوده‌ است‌. همانند حافظ‌ تا حدّی‌ ملامتی‌ ست‌، می‌گوید: منی‌ که‌ چون‌ کاغذی‌ سفید پاکدامن‌ هستم‌، بی‌ پیرایه‌ چون‌ آب‌، پارسا چون‌ دختری‌ نابالغ‌، بی‌ آزار چون‌ گوسفندی‌ قربانی‌، برایم‌ ناخوشایند نیست‌ که‌ یک‌ بدمست‌، یک‌ نابکار و یک‌ آدمکش‌ قلمداد شوم‌ بودلر شاعر عصیان‌ و انکار است‌، دنیا را بدین‌ گونه‌ که‌ هست‌ نمی‌پذیرد، و به‌ آیینهای‌ دروغین‌ آن‌، به‌ آنچه‌ نامردان‌ و ابلهان‌ به‌ آن‌ احترام‌ می‌گذارند، گردن‌ نمی‌نهد.... می‌کوشد تا به‌ نیروی‌ شعر نشان‌ دهد که‌ مقهور سرگذشت‌ نیست‌....به‌ نسبت،‌ عمر کوتاهی‌ که داشت‌، آثاری‌ نه‌ چندان‌ فراوان‌ از او برجای‌ مانده‌ است‌، ولی‌ آنچه‌ مانده‌، چکیده‌ و نخبه‌ است‌: یکی‌ دیوان‌ شعر است‌ به‌ نام‌ گلهای‌ بدی‌، که‌ منظورش‌ گناه‌ ذاتی‌ ست‌، زیرا بشر بنا به‌ سرشت‌ خود گناه‌ پذیر خلق‌ شده‌ است‌، و باید زندگیش‌ مصروف‌ به‌ تعدیل‌ گناه‌ گردد. دوم‌ قطعه‌ های‌ شعر منثور، که‌ آنها نیز، گرچه‌ به‌ نثر هستند، جوهری‌ شاعرانه‌ دارند، و سوم‌ نقدهای‌ ادبی‌ و هنری‌، که‌ این‌ مقاله‌ ها و یادداشتها نیز ایشان را در ردیف‌ تیزبین‌ترین‌ نقّادان‌ اجتماعی‌ قرار داده‌ اند. بودلر در زمانی‌ زندگی‌ می‌کرد که‌ رگه‌ هایی‌ از اندیشة‌ شرقی‌ به‌ اروپا راه‌ یافته‌ بود، و او نیز نسبت‌ به‌ آنها بی‌ تأثّر نماند. این‌ رگه‌ ها جاب ه‌ جا قابل‌ تشخیص‌ هستند. مترجم در مقدّمة‌ کتاب‌: اگر بخواهیم‌ وضع‌ بودلر را در کشور خودش‌ مجسّم‌ کنیم‌، آنرا تا حدّی‌ نزدیک‌ به‌ مقامی‌ بگیریم‌ که‌ حافظ‌ در زبان‌ فارسی‌ دارد. هر دوی‌ آنها نافذترین‌ شاعران‌ کشور خود هستند. بودلر نیز چون‌ خواجة‌ شیراز، کمابیش‌ همان‌ نغمة‌ سحرآمیز، همان‌ جوّ عطرآگین‌ و مرموز، همان‌ حالت‌ مست‌ کننده‌، لبریز کننده‌، و همان‌ خاصیت‌ ناب بودن و چکیده‌ای‌ در کلام‌ خود دارد. او نیز بیش‌ و کم‌ چون‌ حافظ‌ شاعر شعر مرصّع‌ است‌. با اسن همه، حافظ‌ در وادی‌ شعر به‌ مرحلة‌ اعجاز و کمالی‌ رسیده‌ که‌ بودلر جز به‌ آستانة‌ آن‌ راه‌ نیافته‌ استبودلر را نه‌ می‌توان‌ شاعر بدبین‌ خواند و نه‌ خوشبین‌. او نومیدی‌ و امید را در یک‌ انبان‌ می‌نهد و به‌ کلّ می‌اندیشد. به رغم‌ روشنی‌ سیاهی‌ که‌ بر آثارش‌ افکنده‌ شده‌، موضوع‌ بشریت‌ از نیمة‌ آفتاب‌گیر و بارورش‌ مینگرد. به‌ نظر وی‌ شعر میوة‌ ساعات‌ زیبای‌ زندگی‌ ست‌. یعنی‌ ساعاتی‌ که‌ انسان‌ خود را خوشبخت‌ می‌بیند، فکر می‌کند و زندگی‌ می‌کند. چاپ نخست، بنگاه ترجمه و نشر کتاب، آخرین چاپ انتشارات یزدان؛ آنچه‌ در این‌ کتاب‌ آمده‌: مقدّمه‌؛ شاعر روشنائی‌ سیاه‌؛ جوانی‌ من‌ از کودکی‌ یاد دارم‌؛ آفریدگار و شیطان‌؛ شعر و وضع‌ بشر؛ زن‌؛ متن‌ کتاب‌ - بخش‌ نخست گزیدة‌ ملال‌ پاریس‌ شامل: شعرهای‌ منثور؛ چهل‌ و یک‌ قطعه‌؛ بحش‌ دوم‌ گلهای‌ بدی‌: گزیدة‌ شعرها؛ بیست‌ و شش‌ قطعه‌؛ و توضیحات‌. ا. شربیانی

Ilan Pappe's book traces the history of Palestine from the Ottomans in the nineteenth century, through the British Mandate, the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948, and the subsequent wars and conflicts which have dominated this troubled region. The second edition of Pappe's book has been updated to include the dramatic events of the 1990s and the early twenty-first century. These years, which began with a sense of optimism, as the Oslo peace accord was being negotiated, culminated in the second intifada and the increase of militancy on both sides. Pappe explains the reasons for the failure of Oslo and the two-state solution, and reflects upon life thereafter as the Palestinians and Israelis battle it out under the shadow of the wall of separation. As in the first edition, it is the men, women and children of Palestine who are at the centre of Pappe's narrative.

More than three decades after its first publication, Edward Said's groundbreaking critique of the West's historical, cultural, and political perceptions of the East has become a modern classic.In this wide-ranging, intellectually vigorous study, Said traces the origins of "orientalism" to the centuries-long period during which Europe dominated the Middle and Near East and, from its position of power, defined "the orient" simply as "other than" the occident. This entrenched view continues to dominate western ideas and, because it does not allow the East to represent itself, prevents true understanding. Essential, and still eye-opening, Orientalism remains one of the most important books written about our divided world.

A major journalistic triumph by an intellectual of singular influence, Eichmann in Jerusalem is as shocking as it is informative—an unflinching look at one of the most unsettling and unsettled issues of the twentieth century that remains hotly debated to this day.

Filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky’s insights into the Tarot as a spiritual path • Works with the original Marseille Tarot to reveal the roots of Western wisdom • Provides the key to the symbolic language of the Tarot’s “nomadic cathedral” • Transforms a simple divination tool into a vehicle for self-realization and healing Alejandro Jodorowsky’s profound study of the Tarot, which began in the early 1950s, reveals it to be far more than a simple divination device. The Tarot is first and foremost a powerful instrument of self-knowledge and a representation of the structure of the soul. The Way of Tarot shows that the entire deck is structured like a temple, or a mandala, which is both an image of the world and a representation of the divine. The authors use the sacred art of the original Marseille Tarot--created during a time of religious tolerance in the 11th century--to reconnect with the roots of the Tarot’s Western esoteric wisdom. They explain that the Tarot is a “nomadic cathedral” whose parts--the 78 cards or “arcana”--should always be viewed with an awareness of the whole structure. This understanding is essential to fully grasp the Tarot’s hermetic symbolism. The authors explore the secret associations behind the hierarchy of the cards and the correspondences between the suits and energies within human beings. Each description of the Major Arcana includes key word summaries, symbolic meanings, traditional interpretations, and a section where the card speaks for itself. Jodorowsky and Costa then take the art of reading the Tarot to a depth never before possible. Using their work with Tarology, a new psychological approach that uses the symbolism and optical language of the Tarot to create a mirror image of the personality, they offer a powerful tool for self-realization, creativity, and healing.

Ben and Leslie Cash live largely off the grid with their offspring -- Bodevan, Kielyr, Vespyr, Rellian, Zaja and Nai -- in a cabin in the mountains of Washington state. The parents have passed their socialist and survivalist ideals to their children. Ben considers most of Western society to be fascist, especially corporate America. He also believes that no one will or should be there for you, so you'd better learn how to take care of yourself. As such, the children have been subject to vigorous physical training; know how to deal with minor bumps, bruises, cuts, sprains, and even fractures; and know how to hunt, forage, and grow their own food. The children are also non-registered home schooled, meaning that they have no official academic records. Ben and Leslie have tried to make the children critical thinkers, however, within the context of their ideals. Beyond these issues, Ben and Leslie made the decision to live this lifestyle for Leslie's health. Formerly an attorney, Leslie was diagnosed as bipolar. Ben believes that this disorder started with her postpartum depression with Bo. Yet Leslie's condition has worsened. Despite not believing in Western medicine, Ben sends Leslie to a hospital close to Ben's sister, Harper, so that there can be family close by. While hospitalized, Leslie commits suicide. Beyond the collective grief, Leslie's act brings out a battle between Ben and Leslie's father, Jack Bertrang, a Christian who not only blames Ben for Leslie's death, but believes that what he is doing "to" the children can legally be considered abuse. Jack takes over the funeral arrangements as per his and his complacent wife Abby's Christian morals, against what Ben knows was Leslie's wishes, as she believed in Buddhist philosophies. Although Jack threatens to call the police if Ben shows up to the funeral, Ben and the children believe it is their mission to honor Leslie's last wishes to be cremated as per Buddhist philosophy. This mission not only may bring the divide between Jack and Ben to a head, but may also bring out some long dormant issues between the Cash children as they are exposed to commercial America in all its good and bad, and as Bo grows into manhood, he may have his own ideas of what he should do with the next phase of his life.

But as Beth hones her skills on the professional circuit, the stakes get higher, her isolation grows more frightening, and the thought of escape becomes all the more tempting.

Set in 1950s Manhattan, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is a 60-minute dramedy that centers on Miriam "Midge" Maisel, a sunny, energetic, sharp Jewish woman who had her life mapped out: go to college, find a husband, have kids, and throw the best Yom Kippur breakfasts in town. Soon enough, she finds herself exactly where she had hoped to be, living happily with her husband and two children on the Upper West Side. A woman of her time, Midge is a cheerleader wife of a man who dreams of a stand-up comedy career, but her perfect life is upended when her husband suddenly leaves her for another woman. Utterly unprepared, Midge is left with no choice but to reevaluate her life. When she accidentally stumbles onto the stage at a nightclub, she discovers her own comedic skills and decides to use this newfound talent to help her reinvent her life. The series follows the trajectory of Midge's journey as she pursues a career in the male-dominated stand-up comedy profession, and it transforms from uptown society matron to East Village club performer.
