        Der griechische Lyriker Pindar (522/18 – nach 446 v. Chr.) hat seine Gedichte zu verschiedenen festlichen Anlässen geschrieben, unter anderem zu den Olympischen Spielen oder zu den Pythischen Spielen, die zu Ehren Apollons gefeiert wurden. Die Achte Pythische Ode ist Pindars Alterswerk, und sie hat über die Jahrhunderte immer wieder zu Nachdichtungen in vielen Sprachen angeregt. Pablo Picasso hat Pindars Ode illustriert, auch diese Bilder ein Spätwerk. Kongenial zeigt er in ihnen den Kampf des Künstlers mit dem Alter, den Kampf gegen das Nachlassen der Kräfte und der Kreativität.Der Band enthält den Text Pindars im Original, in der französischen Fassung, die Picasso vorlag, und in einer modernen Nachdichtung sowie alle Bilder Picassos, die er zu diesem Gedicht angefertigt hat. Das Nachwort stellt die Rezeption des antiken Dichters in der Moderne dar und interpretiert die Bilder des großen Malers.

        Song of Heroes

        by Nie Mao

        Song of Heroes is an ode dedicated to heroes. It consists of seven movements, adorned with starting tune, overture, ending tune and after sound. It is in the form of symphonic poems, dedicated to an integration of being epic, lyrical, realistic and vanguard. With lofty beliefs, the poet started writing from Mao Anying's heroic deeds, using time, space, characters, and events as a narrative line to extol a large number of evocative heroes and heroic deeds moving forward in adversity. Not only did the author write about the hero representatives of various important periods, such as Zhao Yiman, Zhao Dengyu, and Xia Minghan, but also wrote about some hero groups, such as the five heroes of the Langya Mountain, the two bombs and one star hero group, and the space hero group. This majestic ode to heroes is tenacious and tragic. It expresses the immortal historical feats made by the heroes for the Chinese revolution, China's construction and the Chinese people. It helps children understand historical heroes by reading poetry, feels the heroic deeds and inspires them with national pride and cultural self-confidence.

        Das öde Land

        Englisch und deutsch

        by T. S. Eliot, Norbert Hummelt

        »Verschiedene Kritiker haben mir die Ehre angetan, das Gedicht als Kritik an der Gegenwart zu interpretieren, und haben sogar eine gehörige Portion Gesellschaftskritik hineingelesen. Für mich war es nur das Ventil für einen privaten und ganz belanglosen Grant gegen das Leben; es ist lediglich ein Stück rhythmischer Quengelei.« So wehrt ein Autor, ebenso verständlich wie unangemessen und vergebens, den Ruhm ab, mit dem er für eben dieses Gedicht, The Waste Land, überhäuft worden ist. The Waste Land (erschienen 1922) ist das Langgedicht des 20. Jahrhunderts, jedenfalls das mit der größten Wirkung in der westlichen Welt. Ein Blick in Norbert Hummelts schwungvoll rhythmische, „direkte“ Neuübertragung und das Original macht ohne weiteres verständlich, warum. Der puritanischen Traditionslinie der amerikanischen Literatur – über Emerson, Thoreau, Dickinson und Whitman – folgend, bezieht Eliots bewußt fragmentarisch gehaltenes Krisengedicht den Leser geradezu szenisch mit ein. Es läßt ihn mitarbeiten, innehalten, überlegen: Selbsterforschung - des Lesers mehr als des Sprechenden - ist gefragt. Auch dies hat Das öde Land über all die Jahre hinweg lebendig gehalten.

Do you think a tiny girl like Little Pea would be able to defeat a giant beast? “Little Pea and the Sneaky Beast” is an Old Iranian folktale that concentrates on the true potentials and abilities of children regardless of any factors. Little Pea is tiny and different, but that by no means is enough reason that she wouldn’t be able to defeat even the biggest threats! AWARDS & RECOGNITION: Image of the Books Winner, Russia 2020

        There is a Land Beyond Perekop

        by Anastasia Levkova

        Crimea. It was here that the main character of the novel spent her childhood, youth and met first love. It was here that she realized that she is Ukrainian. Neither grandfather, lieutenant colonel of the KGB, nor Russian blood in his veins stood in the way of her self-identification. The novel intertwines Crimean Tatar culture, Ukrainian history and family skeletons in closets like an ornament. Together with the main character and her friends, Aliye who is a Crimean Tatar, and Alyona who is a Ukrainian, the reader travels a long way from their childhood to the present — the occupation of the peninsula by Russia. «There is a land beyond Perekop» is an ode to Crimea. Not to its natural beauty and uniqueness, but to people. This is an attempt to open the mainland for Crimea, and Crimea for the mainland. After all, there is land both there and there. It should be known and stitched.

Testing knowledge is good. But this goes further: encouraging children to be inquisitive and imaginative about nature. At the end each animal sticker book with the little honey bee will look different. However you want it to be.
