La traducción de Sir Richard F. Burton de The Kama Sutra sigue siendo una de las mejores interpretaciones en inglés de este tratado indio temprano sobre política, costumbres sociales, amor e intimidad. Su estilo nitido establece un nuevo estandar para la traduccion sanscrita.El Kama Sutra se destaca unicamente como un trabajo de psicologia, sociologia, dogma hindu y sexologia. Ha sido un clasico celebrado de la literatura india durante 1.700 años y una ventana para Occidente a la cultura y el misticismo de Oriente.

The one that got away is the best-known phrase in fishing. Every angler has at least one story of being outwitted by a huge fish. A refrain of the angler, a taunt from those who live with them: it neatly sums up the way in which anglers are obsessed with the fish they almost caught. Yet to hear a fisherman tell the story of an escapee leviathan is to gain a great insight into why he fishes in the first place and why his sport is the most popular in the world. This is a collection of original stories from well-known angling enthusiasts and writers. They tell of unforgettable fish hooked and lost, of glimpsed monsters which haunt the imagination and draw the narrator back to a particular river or lake, time and again, in search of a re-match.David Steel loses his first-ever salmon after an epic struggle on the Ettrick; George Melly is upstaged by a giant Usk brown trout; Jeremy Paxman describes a fishing trip Sri Lankan style; Max Hastings is punished for being blase and Bernard Venables extending the definition of fish relates a thrilling but tragic whaling adventure in the Azores. Chris Yates, former holder of the British carp record, tells of his close encounter with an even bigger carp; David Profumo is humiliated by a 400lb shark; Brian Clarke has his angling life marked by a monster pike and Conrad Voss Bark actually helped his fish get away.

Los periodistas rosarinos Vanesa Valenti y Lucas Vitantonio escribieron una biografía imperdible de Gerardo Martino, que ayuda a conocer, en toda su dimensión, al sucesor de Alejandro Sabella. El Tata retrata como nunca antes los dias de la infancia de Martino: la escuela primaria con Angelica, su futura esposa; la secundaria con Fito Paez y el habito de deslumbrar haciendo jueguitos con una pelota de ping-pong; su pretension de convertirse en odontologo y el viaje de egresados trunco por la convocatoria a debutar en la primera division. El relato de sus dias como numero ocho no tiene desperdicio. Martino es el jugador que mas partidos jugo con la camiseta de Newells. Y tambien el mas expulsado. Fue pichon de crack, figura indiscutida y finalmente idolo. Pero tambien vivio dias duros, en los que fue acusado de traicion. Dicen sus viejos compañeros y maestros que le gustaba jugar del lado de la sombra, que era un poco remolon. Con eso, le alcanzaba para deslumbrar. Hasta que Marcelo Bielsa, sobre el final de su carrera, lo dirigio y consiguio que su juego tuviera mas intensidad. El tercer pilar del libro es el que descubre el mundo de Martino como DT. Quienes son los tres tecnicos de la vieja guardia que lo marcaron a fuego, que tomo el de cada uno de ellos y cuales son sus secretos como entrenador. Sus inicios sin fuegos artificiales, su salto a la gloria en Paraguay, el regreso inolvidable al club de sus amores y el fracaso en Barcelona. La alegria y la desazon. Dice el Tata que ya sueña con torneos internacionales y con dejar su marca, que su objetivo en la seleccion es ganar y enamorar. Agallas no le faltan.

Poesias lindas do autor ao longo de sua adolescência

In "Lectures on Horsemanship," the anonymous author intricately weaves a tapestry of practical knowledge and philosophical insights into the art of riding and horse management. This influential text, characteristic of its time, not only focuses on the technical aspects of equestrianism but also delves into the deeper relationship between rider and beast, reflecting the Enlightenments fascination with nature and mastery. With a clear, didactic style, the author employs detailed descriptions and systematic exercises that cater to both novices and seasoned riders, highlighting the significant blend of passion and reason in horsemanship. The authorAos anonymity adds an intriguing layer of mystique to the work, yet the rigor and depth of knowledge suggest a seasoned equestrian, possibly influenced by contemporary figures in horsemanship and education. Such an approach may have aimed to elevate the status of equestrian arts within the broader intellectual discourse of the time, encouraging a more profound appreciation for both the skill of riding and the sensitivity demanded in the bond with horses. "Lectures on Horsemanship" serves as an essential read for any equestrian enthusiast or scholar of 18th-century thought. Its timeless wisdom continues to resonate, offering practical lessons alongside a rich philosophical framework that encourages readers to reflect on their own interactions with these majestic animals.

Éste es un libro sobre el mar. No se lee, se bucea. Trata de buscar la significación humana a través de nuestra presencia marina. La profundidad es una distancia donde se esconde la verdadera intimidad de uno. Cuando entramos en el agua se activan en nuestro cerebro muchos mecanismos que nos conectan con la parte de nosotros que nos define, que nos crea. Si bien el buceo a pulmon es uno de los modos para lograr esa sutura con uno mismo, el oceano ofrece un abrazo de posibilidades con cada ola, con cada marea. Farero, naufrago, nadador o entrenador de cetaceos: el hombre y el mar.
