It is customary, when referring to the life and work of a poet, to speak in academic terms. But with Jalal-ud-Din Rumi, this custom does not apply. His direct and indirect influence on both our spiritual lives and world literature over the past seven centuries has been immeasurable. Not only does his writing continue to set sales records, he is also remembered as the founder of Mevlevi Sufism—the whirling dervishes—whose followers in this century have numbered in the millions.

There used to be something called JOURNALISM. It was a noble “Fourth Estate”. There was no concept of anything called “fake news”. Cronkite was the “most trusted man in America” and the Times & Post were paragons of integrity. Newspapers were actually “a thing”. Add to that landscape: axe murders; international monetary manipulation; a small-town police department; Congressional corruption; insane religious cults; cover ups; con men; assassinations; and the ugly zeitgeist of Southern racism.

Niels Aage Barfoeds biografiske roman "Verden er et flyvesand" fortæller om den danske digter Ambrosius Stubs (1705-1758) liv og værker. Hvor Ambrosius Stubs digte var smukke, lette og yndefulde, var hans liv og opførsel det stik modsatte. Jo ældre han blev, des mere gik han op i limningen af druk, personlige problemer og sorg over omverdenens manglende anerkendelse af hans digte, som efter hans død vandt stor popularitet.

Si hay un escritor que con su literatura, en una metáfora de guerreros, magos, elfos, gigantes y bestias inverosímiles, haya logrado retratar los horrores de dos guerras mundiales, el desenfreno de la industrialización, la ambición desmedida del poder y el deterioro ambiental del presente...

El pueblo sigue a los condenados de esa tarde que, en solemne procesión, se dirigen al Quemadero, donde morirán abrasados hasta convertirse en cenizas. Entre aquellos miserables destaca un hombre de grandes ideas, cuya habilidad para vencer enemigos con la pluma o la espada se haría legendaria: Guillén Lombardo, el Basilisco, un hombre extraordinario nacido en Irlanda que pasó diecisiete años en prisión por conspirar en contra del virrey y denunciar los abusos de las autoridades civiles y eclesiásticas.

Tre storie. Tre peregrinazioni. Tre immersioni in un passato illustre, reinventato, emozionato, elettrizzato dalla fantasia letteraria di uno scrittore in stato di grazia. Nella prima il poeta-mercante trecentesco Lapo Pegolotti lascia Firenze con le sue carovane di mercanzia; trasformando i suoi viaggi in occasioni letterarie, riesce a farsi ricevere da Dante a Ravenna, prende quasi abusivamente parte alla scalata del Mont Ventoux con Petrarca, ritrova Boccaccio a Firenze dopo la peste e salva il Decamerone, quindi scrive di suo un poema in terza rima.
