Hirokazu Kanazawa
The martial art of karate can be practiced by anyone, regardless of age or gender, and can be undertaken at any time during a person's life. Embraced by people the world over, this traditional Japanese art continues to hold universal appeal. Among the most important aspects of karate practice are the kata, patterns of movement that are carefully choreographed and arranged in sequences. With Karate: The Complete Kata, Hirokazu Kanazawa, the foremost figure in the karate world today and a disciple of Gichin Funakoshi, the father of modern karate, offers the definitive work on the subject. Kanazawa explains all the key kata in great detail; and his text is accompanied by thousands of photographs. He also goes into some of the other more difficult aspects of karate, including steps, breathing techniques, and pressure points. Kata need to be practiced regularly on an individual basis, and this book is written with such training in mind. From the beginner to the most advanced practitioner, anyone interested in this revered martial art will want to add Kanazawa's book to his or her library.
Guy de Maupassant
Bel-Ami este un roman de maturitate creatoare, care marcheaza apogeul carierei literare a lui Maupassant; este un roman despre presa si arivism, incluzand experiente de viata traite de autor insusi: sperantele si setea nepotolita a lui Georges Duroy strabatand fara tinta bulevardele pariziene, dorinta de a pune capat unei situatii materiale precare, de a evada dintr-o lume prea ingusta, care ii condamna pe cei mai buni la esec, nevoia de a da frau liber unei ambitii crescande, cea de a asterne pe hartie gandurile si trairile sale, intr-o forma admirabila, care sa-i asigure celebritatea. [...] Citind romanul, patrundem in atmosfera anilor 1880-1885, in care s-a dezvoltat simtitor societatea capitalista, in care s-au vehiculat sume enorme de bani prin speculatii bancare si s-a instaurat suprematia unei categorii de oameni de afaceri necinstiti, care au stiut sa reduca la tacere presa, atragand-o de partea lor.

Samanismul - Calatorie intre doua lumi
Patrimoniu viu al umanitatii, samanismul este o sursa de cunoastere a omului si a naturii existentei sale. Mircea Eliade afirma ca samanismul este cea mai veche si mai larg raspandita traditie oculta. Aparut cu mult inainte de a se fi conturat institutiile religioase, samanismul a facilitat inca din vremurile ancestrale constientizarea valorii existentei omenesti, ancorata intr-o sacralitate ce avea nevoie sa fie recunoscuta si respectata. Samanul este acel mesager, mediator intre doua taramuri, vizibilul si invizibilul, avand rolul de a stabili o legatura cu sacrul in folosul intregii comunitati din care face parte. Definitoriu pentru calitatile samanului este modul cum comunica nemijlocit cu lumea nevazuta. In extazul samanic, sufletul paraseste corpul fizic si patrunde in lumea de dincolo, unde dialogheaza cu spiritele. Restabilind astfel legatura dintre sacru si profan, samanul nu numai ca obtine binele semenilor sai, dar le reveleaza acestora stransa legatura care exista intre om si natura. Indemnul samanic era acela al respectului fata de sine, fata de ceilalti si fata de viata in general, deoarece omul nu este decat o particica din intregul cosmos. Samanismul ne ...
