По решение на президента Еманюел Макрон големият френски историк Марк Блок (1986-1944) ще почива в Пантеона в Париж редом с най-заслужилите французи. Марк Блок и колегите му от прочутото списание "Aнали" извършват революция в историческата наука. За Блок историята не се свежда само до събитията - битки, царувания , войни, а още по-важни са дълбинните и бавни промени в обществото,. Затова той включва в историческото дирене социологията, икиномиката, демографията, социалната психолгия, проучва всекидневието и нравите на обществата в миналото. Евреин и член на Съпротивата, Марк Блок е разстрелян от нацистите. Дъкбок поклон!

Raising a glass this evening to Joseph Roth, born on this day 130 years ago in Brody, in what’s now Ukraine. Thank you, Herr Roth, for being the most engrossing, stimulating, sometimes infuriating but always intriguing biographical subject I could ever wish to study.

Today is the 100th anniversary of Joseph Conrad's death.

We all know which is the most famous, but which would you say is his greatest novel?

David Foster Wallace saw it coming

@johnpaul_newman the works of Vesselin Yanchev should be of use for your research.

David Foster Wallace: "I have intelligent friends, who don't like to read. They get - it's not just bored - there's an almost dread that comes up about having to be alone and having to be quiet.

It seems significant that we don't want things to be quiet ever anymore."

Today I did something extraordinary that Covid prevented while I was writing my Joseph Roth biog: I held his personal papers at the Center for Jewish History in NYC. Here’s the handwritten first page of his greatest novel & his copy of the sheet music to Strauss’s Radetzky March.

General Pyotr Wrangel's troops marching in Varna, Bulgaria, 1921. Between 15,000-17,000 White Russian soldiers came to the country that year, a larger force than the standing Bulgarian army at the time.

@joannaelmy Вероятно съм имал очаквания за книга, която отива отвъд по-популярното представяне на региона и грешката си е моя. Същевременно в сравнение с книгата на Gerard Delanty 'Inventing Еurope' от 1995, която на моменти е скандална, тази направо е супер.

[Momchil Milanov @chillmil]

@joannaelmy Започнах я с голям интерес, но бързо си дадох сметка, че 1. не писана за хора от района. 2. съдържа елементарни методологически и концептуални неточности. Пример - отъждествяване на определени географски региони с държавите, които се появяват там векове по-късно. И т.н.
