Ëndrra dhe Poezia

        Dikur poeti francez Paul Eluard shkruante: - “Rrëfimi i një ëndrre nuk mund të merret si recitim poeme. Te dyja jane realitete te jetuara; por e para është një kujtim, i konsumuar njëherazi, një aventurë; kurse prej te dytes asgjë s’humbet, asgje s’ndryshon. Poezia e naltëson universin për të përfituar vetëm qënia njerëzore me aftësite e veta, i krijon hapsira njeriut të shoh llojshmërinë e gjërave në mënyra të ndryshme.” Ne vazhdim i kemi te dyja, endrren e poezine te shkrira ne nje.

Opinion/Kritike

Where a writer is from is neither here nor there

We should beware of paying more attention to a writer's nationality than their fiction.

       In the literary world, there is perhaps nothing more insulting than being labelled "insular". Any accusation – such as Nobel prize permanent secretary Horace Engdahl's 2008 comments about the parochialism of American letters – is damaging, hurtful and also guilt-inducing. Insularity, after all, is inimical to literature, the opposite of fiction's artistic goal of understanding others. And it's not just writers who are shamed by the allegation. Publishers and, by implication, readers are often indicted on similar charges, their rigid tastes blamed for the shockingly low availability of fiction in translation.
