Das literarische Werk Georg Büchners ist verblüffend vielfältig - gerade angesichts seines so dramatisch kurzen Lebens. In nicht einmal 24 Jahren schaffte er es, als Schriftsteller, Naturwissenschaftler und Revolutionär zu einer der bedeutendsten Figuren des deutschen Vormärz zu werden. Vom hessischen Goddelau führte ihn der Weg über Straßbur und Gießen bis nach Zürich, wo er 1837 dem Typhus erlag.

Aquel mediodía del 25 de marzo de 1977, hace 45 años, Rodolfo Walsh llegó puntual a una cita que tenía programada en la esquina de las avenidas San Juan y Entre Ríos, en el centro de la ciudad de Buenos Aires. La reunión había sido confirmada respetando los códigos de seguridad de la clandestinidad: contraseñas secretas y chequeos telefónicos. No sabía que, en verdad, un operativo, que incluía un francotirador, lo estaba esperando para capturarlo.

Poeta guerrillero peruano nacido en 1942, desde muy niño mostró un gran interés por el estudio y la literatura, ocupando el primer puesto en 1958 a la Facultad de Letras de la Universidad Católica del Perú. Su tempranísima muerte, a los 21 años, privó al Perú de seguir gozando de su prometedor estilo poético.

George W. Bush arrived in the White House an untested governor with an unfortunate habit of tripping over his own tongue, presiding over an economy slipping into recession, and a nation more obsessed with reality television than with the reality of international terrorism. He was considered by many opinion-leaders a dupe, an illiterate, a cowboy, a preppie, a child of privilege. Now, it is clear to John Podhoretz that Bush has become, and will be remembered, as one of this nation's strongest leaders.

Oscar Wilde was a wild one. His statements were bold, his career was successful, and his tongue was sharp. Not only did he disturb the common narrative of the nuclear family, the Catholic church, and the idea of patriotism, but he also blew many people away with his defense of his principles, his criticism of the state, philosophies on life itself, and more. Being open about being a homosexual in a time when it was unaccepted and even illegal, his life ended in imprisonment and exile. Yet, despite his orientation and his controversial preferences, his prose and poetry did not suffer.
