"Very little in this world stays fresh and life-giving for 1,500 years. But when that happens we should ask ourselves why and what that had to do with us."In this book, "The Radical Christian Life: A Year with Saint Benedict," Joan Chittister encourages us to look at that question. In an introductory essay she examines how the insights and values of the sixth-century Visionary Saint Benedict can illuminate today's search for a meaningful life. Then she leads us through the year, reflecting on twelve stories from Benedict's life, anecdotes that give us glimpses into his soul. More than that, she draws from these stories daily thoughts for the development of our own spiritual lives in this day and age."Joan Chittister, OSB, is a Benedictine sister and international lecturer who has been a leading voice in spirituality for more than thirty years. She has authored over forty books, most recently "Uncommon Gratitude" and "The Monastery of the Heart," part of a program she is helping to develop to enable lay groups to live Benedictine spirituality in a contemporary way."… (more)

Roman Jakobson, amigo de Maiakóvski, discute o seu recente suicídio. Quando a imprensa socialista fala de um suicídio completamente inesperado, absurdo, motivado por amor, e a imprensa ocidental fala em decepção com o regime da União Soviética, Jakobson não simplifica. Mesmo que esteja “abalado até os ossos” ele clama: “Eis que a convulsão dessa geração sem sucessores aparece não como um destino particular, mas como o rosto de nosso tempo, uma sufocação da história”. Usando trechos da poesia do amigo, Jakobson se recusa a ver a sua obsessão com os motivos de suicídio, infanticídio, ressurreição e a fusão da arte com a vida cotidiana como meros artifícios de estilo, mas explora sua vida e arte.
Sobre o título:
"Ryléiev foi executado aos 31 anos. Aos 36, Bátiuchkov enlouquece. Aos 22 morre Venetínov, e aos 32 Diélvig. Aos 34, Griboiédov é assassinado, Púchkin aos 37 e Liérmontov aos 26. Suas mortes foram caracterizadas mais de uma vez como formas de suicídio. O próprio Maiakóvski comparava seu combate contra a vida cotidiana aos duelos de Púchkin e Liérmontov."
"O fuzilamento de Gumilióv (1886-1921), a longa agonia espiritual e as torturas físicas levaram Blók (1880-1921) à morte, as privações cruéis e a morte desumana de Khlebnikóv (1855-1922), os suicídios anunciados de Iessiênin (1895-1925) e Maiakóvski (1893-1930). Assim pereceram, no curso dos anos 20 deste século, na idade de 30 a 40 anos, os inspiradores de toda uma geração. E cada um deles teve a nítida e insuportável consciência do irremediável."
Concluindo que é perigoso ser poeta na Rússia. “Quando os cantores são assassinados e as canções, arrastadas ao museu e presas ao passado, a geração atual torna-se ainda mais desolada, mais abandonada e perdida, mais deserdada, no sentido verdadeiro da palavra.”
Edição maravilhosa da Cosac Naify, ilustrada com colagens de Rodchenko para o poema Sobre Isto. ( )
