Le Symbolisme est un mouvement littéraire et artistique de la fin du 19ème siècle, d'origine française, s'insirant de la spiritualité, de l'imagination et des rêves. Il s'agit d'une conception spirituelle du monde : trouver d'autres moyens d'expression pour dépasser la simple représentation réaliste; les symbolistes utilisent généralement des images et des analogies pour évoquer le monde, suggérer les états d'âme et les idées abstraites sans les expliciter, alors que la pensée logique exploite les données réelles.

Learn to use your natural power center.

The term narcissism started about 2000 years ago when Ovid wrote the Myth of the Narcissus, which tells the story of Narcissus, a beautiful Greek hunter who one day looks and loves his reflection in a water pool. He has his own appearance obsessed and can not leave his reflection until he dies. The concept of narcissism was first suggested by the famous psychoanalyst.

In Black Reconstruction W. E. B. Du Bois wrote, "The slave went free; stood for a brief moment in the sun; then moved back again toward slavery."
