Proclamation of the Biblical Readings in the Eucharistic Liturgy of the Syriac Churches
2016
In every liturgical family, including the Syriac ones, the proclamation of the Word of God belongs to the essential elements of the celebration. Although in the many communities sharing the same tradition of Antioch, Edessa and Nisibis the practice of the biblical readings within the liturgy looks different there are some common elements. Among them one can list: a great respect towards the Bible (the book seen as a monstrance); the readings take place during the Liturgy of Catechumens; the readings from both the Old and New Testament are divided by the psalmodic chants; the practice of reading the Gospel is strictly reserved for the priest; the presence of the biblical poetry within the wh…

Trwałe dziedzictwo Angelusa Silesiusa na przykładzie kościelnej pieśni „Jezu, Jezu do mnie przyjdź ”
2015
The literary legacy of Johannes Scheffler - Angelus Silesius (1624-1677), known in Polish as Silesian Angel, is one of the most precious jewels of culture created in Silesia in the 17th century. The poet became famous with a small collection of couplets Cherubinischer Wandersmann (Cherub wanderer), which tries to present the mystical path to God in a speculative way. Silesian Angel tried to show an affective way to God and the collection of poems Heilige Seelen-Lust (Holy joy of the soul) is a meaningful example. This work includes the song Die Psyche sehnt sich nach Jesu alleine (Psyche only longs Jesus). It gives basis for the church song Jesus, Jesus, come to me, which is still popular i…
The Romantics of 1909: Arthur Symons, Pierre Lasserre and T. E. Hulme
2016
Arthur Symons’s The Romantic Movement in English Poetry (1909) has elicited scant discussion. Part dictionary of British authors born before 1800, part series of portraits of canonical Romantic poets, The Romantic Movement remains perplexing with its unclear purpose and ungainly format. This article argues that Symons’s monograph should be approached in the turn of the century debate on the definition and value of British Romanticism. As opposed to T. E. Hulme’s ‘Romanticism and Classicism’ (1912?), itself indebted to Pierre Lasserre’s Le Romantisme français. Essai sur la révolution dans les sentiments et dans les idées au XIXe siècle (1907), Symons’s study appears as a defence of the roman…

MOHSEN EMADI – A POET OF EXILE
2019
"I’m from exile”. This is how a poet, a cosmopolitan, and a citizen of the world of poetry Mohsen Emadi describes himself. He writes poems on loss and displacement, charting his experiences of mobility. This essay is based on Emadi’s poems and biographical interviews with the poet. Quotes from the interviews and fragments of his poems are combined with theoretical reflections on diaspora, nomadism, and exile by researchers such as Edward Said and Rogers Brubaker. Following Emadi, I take a critical look at the concept of diaspora and discuss mobility and exile both as a forced condition and as a choice. The experiences of both voluntary and coerced mobility are considered from the perspecti…
Caitrìona O’Reilly : From ecopoetry to ontopoetics
2022
Caitrìona O'Reilly's poetry is remarkable for its attention to the natural world, to fauna, flora, the four elements and landscapes; for its keen sense of nature's superior and mysterious beauty ("Atlantic", "Octopus", "Six Landscapes", "Bee on Agastache") but also fragility ("Polar", "Iceland"). Without question, it can be described as "ecopoetry". I will explore the fundamentals of O’Reilly’s "eco-conscious" and scholarly work, and show how, in her work, "ecopoetry" amounts to "ontopoetics", which is to be understood as "poetics of being". The natural world captured poetically by Caitrìona O'Reilly is a "perceived" world, i.e. a world seen, observed, felt, touched, heard by a subject. The…
Juguetes trágicos para adultos: sexualidad y perversiones del cuerpo en las bañistas de Picasso (Dinard, verano de 1928)
2023
El presente artículo busca ofrecer un análisis en torno a un conjunto de pinturas de pequeño formato que Pablo Picasso realizó durante sus vacaciones en Dinard el mes de agosto de 1928. Estas supusieron una transformación pictórica radical, además de una breve etapa fascinante que afianzaron decisivamente las perversiones monstruosas del cuerpo y su sexualidad en la obra del pintor malagueño. Para ello, será necesario hacer un breve repaso sobre los años anteriores a 1928 para comprender el origen de esta fractura pictórica, además de destacar su huella en algunos cambios significativos que Picasso adoptará en su pintura posterior a esta misma fecha.
