Istorijsko jezgro Talina, Estonija – Tallinn Historic Center, Estonia
S visinom od 46 metara Kiek in de Kök najviša je kula na talinskim odbrambenim zidinama. Njeno ime doslovno znači “gvirenje u kuhinju” jer se, po predanju, kroz ureze u zidovima moglo krišom posmatrati šta jedu stanari kule. Sjeverni ulaz u grad zaštićen je zdepastom kulom poznatom kao “Debela Margareta” (Paks Margareta). Do Gornjeg grada (Toompea) može se stići putem Dugačka noga (Pikk Jalg) što se postepeno penje prateći liniju zidova. Moguće je ići i kraćim, ali težim putem koji se zove Kratka noga (Lühike Jalg). Ova imena primjer su estonskog smisla za humor koji im je pomogao da prežive razna osvajanja što su obilježila njihovu istoriju.



Prvi zapisi o Talinu potiču od arapskog geografa El Ibrisija koji je 1154. godine obilježio na mapi mjesto Kvaleveni, na današnjoj lokaciji grada. Ime Kvaleveni potiče od Kaleva, legendarnog junaka koga Estonci smatraju svojim osnivačem…

An article about Black Inventors
I thought I should have a post for Black History Month, so I thought I would share a link with you. There have been so many African-American inventors that people haven’t heard of. Sadly, you had inventions stolen by the dominant society even after slavery. There have been so many inventions like cotton scrapers, folding beds, yellow traffic lights, filaments, moving blood banks, and video game cartridges to name a few. Feel free to check out the article.

The Narrative of the Womanly path of sorrow by Waciny Laredj – نادية حرحش
Through a novel that exceeded four hundred pages, the Palestinian writer and journalist Nadia Harhash created a highly differentiated narrative distinguished from what we saw in “The Literature of Major Issues.” The most important feature of her novel “On the Trails of Mariam” is the thin thread that continues in its intensity and warmth throughout the entire book: Humans\ men and women, in the end, are a historical fruit and outcome constantly formed through their experiences, not a finished achievement. Heavy historical burden. This is what made the novel based on many international intertexts that gave the narrative its depth and human roots, from the stories of the Virgin and Magdalene, to the Divine Comedy, to Ishtar, to George Orwell, to Nefferi, to Henry Miller, and others. With the breadth of its topics, its controversy, and its times, the novel “On the Trails of Mariam” turned into a narrative of the Arab time that found itself expelled from history, burdened with a history that it has not been able to re-read and understand to change its present, with the constant fear of tragic endings.
