JGJean Giono

Inspirée par son imagination et ses visions de la Grèce antique, son oeuvre romanesque dépeint la condition de l'Homme dans le monde, face aux questions morales et métaphysiques et possède une portée universelle. Il fut accusé à tort de soutenir le Régime de Vichy et d'être collaborateur avec l'Allemagne nazie pendant la Seconde Guerre Mondiale Il devint l'ami de Lucien Jacques, d'André Gide et de Jean Guéhenno, ainsi que du peintre Gimel.

Christina Rossetti
Christina Georgina Rossetti, one of the most important women poets writing in nineteenth-century England, was born in London December 5, 1830, to Gabriele and Frances (Polidori) Rossetti. Although her fundamentally religious temperament was closer to her mother\'s, this youngest member of a remarkable family of poets, artists, and critics inherited many of her artistic tendencies from her father. Judging from somewhat idealized sketches made by her brother Dante, Christina as a teenager seems to have been quite attractive if not beautiful. In 1848 she became engaged to James Collinson, one of the minor Pre-Raphaelite brethren, but the engagement ended after he reverted to Roman Catholicism. When Professor Rossetti\'s failing health and eyesight forced him into retirement in 1853, Christina and her mother attempted to support the family by starting a day school, but had to give it up after a year or so. Thereafter she led a very retiring life, interrupted by a recurring illness which...

Raymond Carver
The American short story writer and poet Raymond Carver was born in Clatskanie, Oregon, on May 25, 1938, and lived in Port Angeles, Washington during his last ten, sober years until his death from cancer on August 2, 1988. He was a Guggenheim Fellow in 1979 and was twice awarded grants from the National Endowment for the Arts. In 1983 Carver received the prestigious Mildred and Harold Strauss Living Award which gave him $35,000 per year tax free and required that he give up any employment other than writing, and in 1985 Poetry magazine\'s Levinson Prize. In 1988 he was elected to the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters and was awarded an honorary Doctorate of Letters from the University of Hartford. He received a Brandeis Citation for fiction in 1988. His work has been translated into more than twenty languages. At least that\'s the basic biography. Of course there\'s no room in it for the nature of the hardship he and his family went through during most of those fifty...

PIPhaedrus Caius Iulius
Phaedrus, Gaius Julius (c.15 BC—c. AD 50), Thracian slave who came to Rome and became a freedman in the household of Augustus, the author (in Latin) of a collection of fables in five books containing some hundred stories, published probably in the thirties of the first century AD. There is also an appendix of another thirty-two fables, probably also by Phaedrus. The collection includes fables proper, a number of anecdotes (e.g. about Aesop, Socrates, and Menander), and defences of the author against detractors. The fables are based on those of Aesop and on beast-stories from other sources which had come to be attributed to Aesop. They are written in verse, in iambic senarii (see METRE, LATIN 2), and their object is two-fold, to give advice and to entertain. They are generally serious or satirical, dealing with the injustices of life and social and political evils, but occasionally they are light and amusing. In general they express patient resignation. Phaedrus observed in the...

André Gide
Né le 22 novembre 1869 à Paris, André Gide est le fils unique de Paul Gide, professeur de droit, et de Juliette Rondeaux, riche bourgeoise d\'origine normande. «Né à Paris, d’un père uzétien et d’une mère normande, où voulez-vous, monsieur Barrès, que je m’enracine? J’ai donc pris le parti de voyager.» À la mort de son père, Gide n\'a que onze ans. Il est donc élevé par sa mère dans une atmosphère de rigueur morale qu\'on a dit castratrice, entouré presque exclusivement de femmes. Il épousera Madeleine Rondeaux, sa cousine de Rouen, en 1895. Dégagé de tout souci financier grâce à sa fortune personnelle, Gide s\'oriente très tôt vers une carrière littéraire dont ses premiers échecs ne le détournent pas les Cahiers d\'André Walter (1891), publié à compte d\'auteur: il se déclare soucieux de produire une œuvre qui assure sa postérité plus que sa gloire immédiate. Après Paludes (1895), Gide se moque des symbolistes et de lui-même, il publie les Nourritures terrestres (1897). Ce livre...

M-am nascut undeva prin Bucovina, in vremuri in care omenia era un concept mult mai bine definit la modul practic, decat acum. Restul,am sa va spun altadata,ca pe un fel de poveste la gura sobei,intr-o iarna,ca acele de care-mi amintesc ca erau in anii copilariei mele.

RBRupert Chawner Brooke
Rupert Chawner Brooke (middle name sometimes given as Chaucer)(3 August 1887–23 April 1915) was an English poet known for his idealistic war sonnets written during the First World War (especially The Soldier); however, he never experienced combat at first hand. He was also known for his boyish good looks, which prompted the Irish poet William Butler Yeats to describe him as \"the handsomest young man in England\". English poet Brooke was born at 5 Hillmorton Road in Rugby, Warwickshire, the second of the three sons of William Parker Brooke, a Rugby schoolmaster, and Ruth Mary Brooke, née Cotterill. He attended Hillbrow Prep School before being educated at Rugby School. While travelling in Europe, he prepared a thesis entitled \"John Webster and the Elizabethan Drama\", which won him a scholarship to King\'s College, Cambridge, where he became a member of the Cambridge Apostles, helped found the Marlowe Society drama club and acted in plays including the Cambridge Greek Play. Brooke...
