RVRenée Vivien
Renée Vivien, born Pauline Mary Tarn (11 June 1877 - 18 November 1909) was a British poet who wrote in the French language.[1][2] She took to heart all the mannerisms of Symbolism, as one of the last poets to claim allegiance to the school. Her compositions include sonnets, hendecasyllabic verse, and prose poetry. Vivien was born in London, England to a wealthy British father and an American mother from Jackson, Michigan. She grew up in Paris and London. Upon inheriting her father's fortune at 21, she emigrated permanently to France. In Paris, Vivien's dress and lifestyle were as notorious among the bohemian set as was her verse. She lived lavishly, as an open lesbian, and carried on a well-known affair with American heiress and writer Natalie Clifford Barney. She also harbored a lifelong obsession with her closest childhood friend and neighbor, Violet Shillito – a relationship that remained unconsummated. In 1900 Vivien abandoned this chaste love, when the great romance with Natalie...

JJJames JOYCE
James Joyce (1882-1941), Irish novelist, noted for his experimental use of language in such works as Ulysses (1922) and Finneganns Wake (1939). Joyce\'s technical innovations in the art of the novel include an extensive use of interior monologue; he used a complex network of symbolic parallels drawn from the mythology, history, and literature, and created a unique language of invented words, puns, and allusions. James Joyce was born in Dublin, on February 2, 1882, as the son of John Stanislaus Joyce, an impoverished gentleman, who had failed in a distillery business and tried all kinds of professions, including politics and tax collecting. Joyce\'s mother, Mary Jane Murray, was ten years younger than her husband. She was an accomplished pianist, whose life was dominated by the Roman Catholic Church. In spite of their poverty, the family struggled to maintain a solid middle-class facade. From the age of six Joyce, was educated by Jesuits at Clongowes Wood College, at Clane, and then at...

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...

WHWilliam Ernest Henley
William Ernest Henley (23 August 1849 – 11 July 1903) was an English poet, critic and editor. Born 23 August 1849 Gloucester, England Died 11 July 1903 (aged 53) Occupation Poet, critic and editor Nationality English Education The Crypt School, Gloucester Writing period c. 1870–1903 Henley was born at Gloucester and was the eldest of a family of six, five sons and a daughter. His father, William, was a bookseller and stationer who died in 1868 leaving young children and creditors. His mother, Mary Morgan, was descended from the poet and critic, Joseph Warton. From 1861-67 Henley was a pupil at the Crypt Grammar School (founded 1539). A Commission had recently attempted to revive the school by securing the brilliant and academically distinguished T. E. Brown (1830-1897) as headmaster. Brown's appointment was short-lived (c.1857-63) but was a 'revelation' for Henley because it introduced him to a poet and 'man of genius - the first I'd ever seen'. This was the start of a lifelong...

NCNicolae Caratană
Poetul Nicolae Caratana s-a nascut la 23 ianuarie 1914 (data incerta) în localitatea Horopani din Macedonia - Grecia, situata între orasele Veria si Naoussa, de pe istorica artera de comunicatii Via Egnatia. Din informatiile pe care le-a obtinut de la bunicul in linie materna, era convins ca familia sa este originara din partea Albaniei si ca, ulterior, odata cu migratiile de populatie din Albania catre Macedonia centrala, s-au stabilit in localitatea Horopani, dupa ce mai intai, au locuit o perioada de timp si pe Muntele Viciu (o ramificatie a Muntelui Gramos). S-a nascut intr-o familie saraca. Tatal sau era muncitor forestier, lucra departe de casa. O perioada de timp a lucrat si in America. La varsta de opt ani, fara ghiozdan si rechizite s-a prezentat singur la scoala din sat, scoala cu predare in limba greaca. La inceput nu intelegea nimic, dar avand o memorie foarte buna a facut mari progrese in insusirea limbii grecesti si a cunostintelor elementare, in ultimii ani ajungand...

Jimi Hendrix
La 27 noiembrie 1942 se naste la Seattle James Marshall Hendrix dintr-o familie in care s-a amestecat sange de alb, negru si rosu. La unsprezece ani, putin dupa moartea mamei sale, incepe sa cante la chitara. La 16 ani abandoneaza scoala si devine un muzician ratacitor. Ei, nu trubadur, nu, ci rythm&blues si rock’n’roll. Dupa ce face armata la parasutisti, la 21 de ani devine session man, adicatalea canta si el cu cine avea nevoie de un chitarist de acompaniament. In ‚65 isi face primul grup, dar nu are prea mare succes in America, asa ca un baiat dragut, Chas Chandler de la Animals il duce la Londinium, unde Jimi devine star. Dupa ce da niste albume tari gen „Are you experienced?”(‚67) sau „Electric Ladyland”(‚68) si dupa ce face istorie la Woodstock(‚69) si in insula Wight(‚70), Jimi moare din cauza unei supradoze in anul de gratie 1970. Daca va fascineaza chitara lui ca si pe mine, va invit sa-i cititi si versurile. Merita.

CACraciun Andra
M-am născut in Ramnicu Valcea la data de 14 iulie 1995. Mi-am petrecut marea parte a copilariei la Baile Olanesti. Acolo am avut o biblioteca impresionanta. Printre cartile acelei perioade s-a remarcat "Singur pe lume" de Hector Mallot. Recent am descoperit "Mandrie si Prejudecata", "Ratiune si Simtire" de Jane Austen, "Pe aripile Vantului" de Margaret Mitchell,de fapt o mare parte a romanelor adolescentei parintilor si chiar bunicilor mei. Acum am aproape 16 ani, imi place să scriu, să citesc și să cânt la chitară. Deși nu sunt pe profil uman, ador sa merg la concursuri de creatie. Studiez la CNI Matei Basarab de anul acesta.
