Wolumen 12 Scripta Classica zawiera czternaście artykułów polskich badaczy starożytności poświęconych refleksji nad fenomenem śmierci w czasach antycznych oraz nad jego literackimi reprezentacjami w kulturze śródziemnomorskiej. Autorzy w swych artykułach nawiązując do różnych mitów, religii, obrzędów, tradycji literackiej i filozoficznej, symboli utrwalonych w kulturze śródziemnomorskiej, między innymi dowodzą, że przerażenie z powodu śmierci i lęk przed rozkładem zwłok widoczne było również w antycznej kulturze. Niniejszy wolumen otwiera wspomnienie o Profesorze Kolendo i wprowadza nas w nastrój zadumy i refleksji nad śmiercią, a także uzmysławia nam naszą bezradność w jej obliczu. Publikacja skierowana jest do filologów, historyków, filozofów, kulturoznawców, teologów, archeologów, do wszystkich tych, którzy zechcieliby rozważyć kwestię namysłu starożytnych nad śmiercią oraz tych, którzy zechcą szukać w niej inspiracji i pouczenia.
Sekrety księżnej de Cadignan. Les Secrets de la princesse de Cadignan
Honoré de Balzac
Książka w dwóch wersjach językowych: polskiej i francuskiej. Version bilingue: polonaise et française. Na język polski przełożył Tadeusz Boy-Żeleński. Sekrety księżnej de Cadignan to powieść należąca do cyklu Komedia ludzka. Jest rok 1833, księżna Diana de Cadignan de Mafrigneuse wycofała się z życia wielkiego świata paryskiego, w którym przez lata zdobyła sławę jednej z tych kobiet, które złamały najwięcej męskich serc, niszcząc równocześnie ambicje i fortuny. Mimo tego pani de Cadignan czuje się niespełniona w życiu, gdyż mimo niezliczonej ilości miłosnych przygód nigdy tak naprawdę nie kochała. Dlatego po rezygnacji ze światowego życia utrzymuje kontakt jedynie z przyjaciółką, markizą d'Espard. Ta ostatnia przedstawia jej człowieka jej zdaniem naprawdę niezwykłego: barona Daniela d'Artheza, pisarza, człowieka, który mimo odziedziczenia ogromnej rodzinnej fortuny nadal trudni się pisaniem i odmawia uczestnictwa w wielkoświatowych intrygach, choć jest z tego powodu obiektem licznych żartów... (z Wikipedii). A co będzie dalej, jak się potoczą losy bohaterów, czytelnik się dowie po przeczytaniu całej książki. Zapraszamy zatem do lektury!

Austen, Jane
A level 5 Oxford Bookworms Library graded reader. This version includes an audio book: listen to the story as you read. Retold for Learners of English by Clare West. Sometimes the Dashwood girls do not seem like sisters. Elinor is all calmness and reason, and can be relied upon for practical, common sense opinions. Marianne, on the other hand, is all sensibility, full of passionate and romantic feeling. She has no time for dull common sense - or for middle-aged men of thirty-five, long past the age of marriage. True love can only be felt by the young, of course. And if your heart is broken at the age of seventeen, how can you ever expect to recover from the passionate misery that fills your life, waking and sleeping?
