Сюжетът на романа е вдъхновен от истинска история: на 2 март 1908 г. Лазар Ейвърбук – източноевропейски емигрант с еврейски произход, оцелял от кървавия великденски погром срещу евреите в Кишинев през 1903 г., се вижда с Джордж Шипи, шеф на полицията в Чикаго. Срещата им завършва с убийството на Лазар, който е обвинен за анархист. Хемон представя как един век по-късно босненският емигрант Брик, който работи в Чикаго като учител и журналист, печели субсидия, за да направи разследване и да напише книга за Лазар. Целта му е да следва Лазар през целия му път от погрома в Кишинев до времето на преместването му в САЩ, за да ... |

Proceedings in the International Conference 24 - 27 October 2018 in the Town of Galabovo."The archeological site Asara or Galabovo, as it is known in the literature, is a prehistoric settlement mound - one of the largest in the Upper Thrace.

Only the old name Asara (meaning fortress) and separate archeological materials without a certain ... |

Изданието е триезично - на английски, немски и френски език. 40th Anniversary Edition. ... "The works of Christo and Jeanne-Claude are monuments of transience. Gigantic in scale, they are always temporary, created to exist only for a limited time and to leave unique, unrepeatable impressions. From the smallest of the Packages made in Paris in the early 1960s, to the delicate pattern of hundreds of branches embraced by a translucent fabric veil... in Christo and Jeanne-Claude's works there is nothing abstract, nothing imagined; it is all there - corporeal and tangible."

In this book, the authors summarize the groundwork developed by various researchers in concern of the kinetics of reactions accompanied by catalyst deactivation, and expound some concepts and approaches which we developed with the aim to extend the knowledge in this area. A new approach is suggested providing opportunities to prognosticate the rate of deactivation according to the reaction mechanism and the current conversion degree. Various deactivation types are distinguished, and the corresponding kinetic descriptions are specified. On this basis, it is proposed to extend the trivial classification for deactivation ... |

"The history of the Jewish ethnicity and its material culture are inseparable from Bulgarian history and culture. Regardless of the preceding series of conscientiously carried separate studies on the topic of the fate of local Jewish communities and especially on the issue of synagogues as their most prominent artistic creations during the long centuries of exile, the "last word" in that respect was not either said or written until now. Professor Jan Assmann of Heidelberg University says: "The cultural memory procures "breathing air" to the world that is too narrow for the everyday realities ... |

"In Genesis, my camera allowed nature to speak to me. And it was my privilege to listen." Sebastiao Salgado On a very fortuitous day in 1970, 26-year-old Sebastiao Salgado held a camera for the first time. When he looked through the viewfinder, he experienced a revelation: suddenly life made sense. From that day onward - though it took years of hard work before he had the experience to earn his living as a photographer - the camera became his tool for interacting with the world. Salgado, who "always preferred the chiaroscuro palette of black-and-white images," shot very little color in his early ... |

Conceived originally as a tool for familiarizing Western intellectuals with the rich history and culture of Bulgaria and its people, the book presents as well - albeit briefly - the other Balkan nationalities and their interrelations. The case is made for the injustice wrought upon the country by the Great Powers, such that within the last 130 years or so since its liberation from the Ottoman yoke it has been splintered into multiple pieces, each donated to a different neighbour. Specifically, the call is justified for unification between Bulgaria and it's southwestern part that is known under the name of Republic of ... |
