To tell you the truth I did not particularly original things to say to you today ... Fortunately, Catherine sent me a beautiful poem to be published today! Happy Birthday! Spend this holiday season close to those he loves, and, at least for a few days away from the people you dislike! This is what I would wish today ... stand next to the one you love is a great medicine for the soul. a bitch! ...
It all started with a little challenge on Facebook ... A girl posted a note that contained 100 titles of books and asked to report how many of these had been read. I did not go over thirty. Some were classics, some of the absolute banality, others complete strangers to me. The list put together The New American Bible (bed) and Harry Potter (manca!! Porcalamiseria!) and, as almost always happens on FBs, was devoid of any order or logical sense. From there, I do not know how I came to the unhealthy idea of \u200b\u200bwriting a note back indicating that I have read 100 books. So, I thought, well put together 100 titles, with no order of importance, will not be so difficult ... It took me two hours instead ... a grind! If you do not believe it, try it a bit '!
I have given myself the following rules:
1) Encyclopedias, trilogies, short story collections are valid for a single book (otherwise it's too easy!), But I made an exception for Kafka.
2) I did not put on the list more than two titles by the same author
3) I did not put the list in art history books
4) No cookbooks or gardening
5) essays, novels, classics, children, old or recent, are worth all the same way
6 ) There is no list, those that made me sick I just avoided them and nothing else (such as those by Stephen King, I read two or three, but do not appear in the list. Why? Because no)
7 ) If you also want to try, you do so at your own risk. You have been warned. This is not an invitation to try. If you see one that goes in the ditch, you do, you go there too?
8) There are no comments on the books of the list. If any title intrigues you, you can ask for information. I will answer if I have time, desire, and if I'm lucid enough to do it, since they are in semi-hibernation
9) I bought the first two volumes of Harry Potter, and I think I'll be spending the Christmas holiday reading , in the warm under the duvet
10) Happy reading!

Oggi stavo guardando questo video assieme a mio fratello, e sul finale sono scoppiata in un pianto dirotto. Singhiozzavo così forte che mi sono dovuta away from the room. It made me think about what is evil, pure evil is and how stupid and easy to do, to put into practice. to build a relationship of love and trust it takes so much time and patience, and effort. To destroy everything you need anything. This reality is so terribly real and concrete, so we experience daily, and yet, when I appeared condensed in these few images, I was struck in a direct and violent, making me feel weak, helpless, sad and angry. Think about it, too. STATEC careful. Because the soul of everyone living along the patience and aggression, love and the blind ignorance and indifference, the prey and the hunter. And it almost never is the wolf. ...

The first part (description) I have been busy around the house and the last part (means to and function of the work) now my students should be able to do it yourself! (Hopefully good!). I recommend kids, study! ... Analysis of the work
Title: The Scream Author: Edvard Munch Date: 1893 Technique: tempera and pastel on wood Dimensions: 83.5 x 66 cm Location: Oslo, G allery National About the author:
Edvard Munch (1863 - 1944) was the greatest painter and engraver Norwegian inspiring and precursor of Expressionism. The tragic death of his mother and sister during childhood, and the nervous breakdown of his father were in the negative events that marked his whole life and give a tone of anguish and ill a good part of his work, as seen in his first masterpiece, "The sick child" (1885-86). In 1892 his name sprang to prominence when alc one of his works on display in Berlin (including "The Scream") caused a scandal and the closing of the exhibition. Munch wrote of this: " One evening I walked along a path. On one side stood the city and the fjord below me. I was tired and sick [...] the sun was setting and the clouds were dyed red blood. I heard a scream from nature, and I could almost hear him. I painted this painting, I painted the clouds as real blood. I counter. "
Despite the protests and insults that were directed by the official critics, some young intellectuals and artists took up his defense and he suddenly became famous. Then settled in Germany, he devoted himself the "Frieze of Life", a series of introspective and images on subjects such as love and death. The vagabond life and ISAG, abuse of alcohol we were at the origin and the emotional strain of nervous breakdown that Munch suffered in 1908. Following treatment, she recovered and decided to leave the haunting images of the past. He returned to live in Norway and devoted himself to decoration of public buildings. With the advent of Nazism, the art of Munch was banned as degenerate, and in 1937 his works in German museums present were seized. The artist died in 1944, of pneumonia, after a bomb had shattered the windows of his house. As is depicted Sogge tto?
In this painting, the strong deformation formation of figurative ra human and landscape, a sense of anguish. The bridge seems to stretch to infinity, away from their figures: it is not only physical distance, but also symbolic, as if the artist was unable to communicate are its pain to others.
The sky, the hills, the fjord, the character in the foreground, yelling his head in his hands, are described by curved lines, wavy, as if an external force pushing them themselves.
Cross erso these haunting lines, the painter has managed to convey the idea of \u200b\u200bthe URL, as if it were if a wave of ' shock that propagates from the painting to the viewer. The work is divided into two parts: the lower part that contains the bridge and the human figures, dominated by the oblique line of the bridge, top, dominated by wavy lines and bright colors of the sky. ...
FB is all a click on "like" this and "like" that ... And so for a while 'time I'm wondering: but what is that "like" really? So I started to make a list, a little 'twisted, in truth, and constantly evolving.

library. Like when I buy a new book and discover that you have guessed the purchase. I like
mushrooms, especially the nails. With the polenta.
