Kirchner's work reconciled past and present through an Expressionist prism, reflecting the latest avant-garde ideas in art, while exploring traditional academic approaches and subjects. His works tackled social, moral, and emotional questions with a fierce ... |

Какъв е звукът от пляскането с една ръка? Дзен будизмът не е религия, нито философия, не е психология или наука. Той е начин на живот и път за освобождение, който е прямота, замах, усет за красотата, но преди всичко - способност за преобразяване. Само когато в съзнанието ти няма неща и съзнанието ти не е в нещата, ти си свободен и духовен, празен и чудодеен. Корените на дзен са колкото даоистки, толкова и будистки, така че Алън Уотс търси извора му в китайските духовни традиции. Стремежът на дзен е проумяване на същността на живота. Както "рибата плува във водата, но не мисли за нея, както птицата лети с вятъра, ... |

Set in Alaska during the Klondike Gold Rush of the late 1890s, The Call of the Wild is about Buck, the magnificent cross-bred offspring of a St Bernard and a Scottish Collie. Stolen from his pampered life on a Californian estate and shipped to the Klondike to work as a sledge dog, he triumphs over his circumstances and becomes the leader of a wolf pack. The story records the "decivilisation" of Buck as he answers 'the call of the wild', an inherent memory of primeval origins to which he instinctively responds. In contrast, ... |
