Selected haiku poems
Where to look for the soul of India in print, or now in digital mode? Is it in the writings of those for whom the muse is their mother tongue or those who happen to muse in the alien English? Where to savour the flavour of Indian life in fictional form? Is it in that ‘stronger and more important body of work of Indian writers working in English’ as trumpeted by Salman Rushdie or in the supposedly ‘true to life’ depictions (not the same thing as the examination of the hum...
That the human condition of the Indian society in their domain is still governed by archaic thinking, insulated from the nuances of human psychology, would expose their collective failure to modernize the mind-set of their readership and contribute to social change. It can be said with a measure of assurance that modernity of thought in our society wherever it is prevalent is owing to the exposure to the writings in English, not necessarily the Indian writing in English....
Deluders of the People offers a view of America through the eyes of its ghosts and entertainers: Johnny Carson, Dick Cavett, Washington Irving, George Washington, and Burfie—the talking device that knows your every move. Each voice joins the national trial, where laughter becomes testimony and politics performance. “Say Burfie before you say hello.” A satire that stages the republic as courtroom, studio, and confession booth.
Yankee Doodle bought the town. Yankee Doodle dandy— Bought the town and raised the rent, Ain’t the laws so handy? Yankee Doodle went to court, With a spiteful grudge; Slipped a dollar in his hand, And bought himself a judge. Yankee Doodle bought the vote, Voices all for sale; Every dollar gets to speak — The biggest stack prevail. Yankee Doodle made it law, Money talks the loudest; Build a mountain billions high, And buy yourself the proudest. Yanke...
This divine separation of commerce and arts that was the norm till the recent past was the source of the enrichment of the latter on the Indian soil, maybe everywhere on the planet earth. As there was no money to make in the pursuit of arts, it was the passionate that embraced art to embellish it with devotion. Thus, avoided by motivated suitors, art got wedded to talent as the Muses blessed the match. In that happy union, talent courted art with passion and tended it wi...
In order to penetrate the book market, the publishers came up with the stratagem of promotional campaigns bringing authors into the media fore. This insensibly glamourized authors thereby attracting the aliens into the arena of writing though publicizing the book is one thing and promoting the author is another. Not to miss out on the new openings in the book trade, some of the opportunists in the west came up with courses in creative writing for aspiring authors thereby...
With a right intent the media could play a sterling role in promoting quality literature. If only the extra half-page that was talked about is earmarked for excerpts from the author published books, then the book lovers would have opportunities to make their literary choices. Likewise, instead of parroting the same news 24x7, the cable networks could air the book readings of the budding authors, who would spare no effort to send in the videos of their reading for the screening.
One only needs to scan the newspapers of the day to note that much of the precious space is mindlessly wasted. Understandably, politics, business and sports besides crime, cinema and trivia take the bulk of the media space for these are the topics that make the average readers buy newspapers in the main. And in what could be seen as tokenism, some, if not all, newspapers concede moderate space for literary subjects; mainly in the form of book reviews that is whatever is ...

Esta obra que nasce de um evento memorável, o Cultural and Creative Industries Days Brazil, uma iniciativa que tivemos a honra de sediar na Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS). Originado na prestigiada Università di Bologna, o evento encontrou em Porto Alegre um terreno fértil para expandir suas fronteiras, promovendo um diálogo vital entre a academia e o mercado, sob o signo da criatividade e da inovação.
O fenômeno dos empreendimentos culturais e criativos (também conhecidas como Cultural and Creative Industries, CCI) torna-se evidente e passa a ser examinado por acadêmicos, administradores e políticos quando se torna claro para todos que existem produtos e serviços nos quais o componente intangível criado pela cultura e pela criatividade multiplica o valor de troca muito além dos fatores que determinam o valor de uso. Países com tradição latino-americana e europei...

From the dawn of creation to the final triumph of good over evil, The Promise: Unlocking God’s Plan of Salvation unveils the timeless story of God’s redemptive purpose for humanity.

Through clear biblical insight and spiritual reflection, Frank Caraveo leads readers on a journey th...
“The Promise was spoken in the shadow of Eden, yet its light has never dimmed. It began as a word of hope to a fallen world, but it unfolds through every age as the song of redemption. From the garden to the cross, and from the cross to the crown, the story of The Promise is the story of God’s unending love—a love that refused to let sin have the final word.”
Paul Kammerer fue un biólogo famoso acusado de manipular el resultado de varios experimentos enfocados a demostrar la veracidad del lamarckismo. En el año de 1926 un prestigiado herpetólogo confirmó la alteración de un resultado en un ejemplar disecado del sapo partero. Cansado de ser señalado como posible falsario durante largos años, e incapaz de desmentir el fraude descubierto por el herpetólogo, Kammerer termina suicidándose, después de escribir varias cartas declara...
La historia de Paul Kammerer es fascinante por muchos motivos: reúne todos los elementos necesarios para escribir una novela de misterio, con enredos amorosos, intrigas politicas, experimentos científicos siempre vistos con brutal escepticismo....sospechas de manipulación de pruebas por manos ajenas, un continente entero devastado por una guerra pavorosa, y un suicidio motivado por causas que nunca han sido aclaradas. Yo no soy novelista, y no tengo capacidad para mostra...

Grace and justice—two profound attributes of God—often seem to stand in tension with one another. On one hand, God is described as infinitely merciful, extending grace to sinners who do not deserve it. On the other, He is a just and righteous Judge, ensuring that sin is punished and truth prevails. This duality can be difficult to reconcile in human understanding. How can a loving God, full of compassion, also be a God of justice who upholds moral law? If He forgives fr...
