Story
Antigone by Sophocles, is a classic Greek tragedy that unfolds against the backdrop of Thebes. The play delves into the profound ethical and moral dilemmas faced by its characters, with Antigone at the center of a conflict between personal convictions and civic duty. The narrative begins with the aftermath of a brutal war, where two brothers, Eteocles and Polynices, have fallen on opposing sides. Antigone, their sister, defies the king's decree and buries Polynices, setting the stage for a clash between divine law and human authority.

Story
Sappho is widely recognized as one of the great poets of world literature, an author whose works have caused her readers to repeat in many different forms Strabo's amazed epithet when he wrote that she could only be called "a marvel." The reception of Sappho's poetry even through the twentieth century offers a case study of the conflicts induced by the sexual preferences she seemingly alludes to in her verse. Little is known with certainty about the life of Sappho, or Psappha in her native Aeolic dialect. She was born probably about 620 B.C. to an aristocratic family on the island of Lesbos during a great cultural flowering in the area.

On Believing in Mind

Story
This enigmatic poem is attributed to Seng-t'san, the third Chinese patriarch of Zen, who died in 606 CE. The tone of the work is revealed in the opening stanza in which the patriarch recommends dynamic introspection as the ideal attitude in solving the apparent problems of life. He urges the seeker neither to become trapped in the "outer entanglements of life" nor to isolate himself in solitude, but to remain calm in the procession of personal vicissitudes, seeing the essential oneness of all things.

Story
Still, the Sky is a speculative mythology rendered through poetry that combines the tales of Icarus and the Minotaur and creates for them a shared coming of age through a correspondence of written fragments, artifacts, ecofacts, and ephemera. Fragmented memories, relics, and confessions combine in a labyrinth of fever dreams and meditations that contemplate innocence and experience, war and peace, exile and homecoming, flight and failure, love and loss.

Vater werden ist nicht schwer,
Vater sein dagegen sehr.
Ersteres wird gern geübt,
Weil es allgemein beliebt.
Selbst der Lasterhafte zeigt,
Dass er gar nicht abgeneigt;
Nur will er mit seinen Sünden
Keinen guten Zweck verbinden,
Sondern, wenn die Kosten kommen,
Fühlet er sich angstbeklommen.

Dazu nötigen Papiere
So wie auch die Haushaltsachen

Und in Ehren und beizeiten
Hin zum Standesamte schreiten,
Wie es denen, welche lieben,
Vom Gesetze vorgeschrieben,
Dann ruft jeder freudiglich:

Oh, wie kalt ist sein Gemüt! –
»Wozu« - lauten seine Worte –
»Wozu nützt mir diese Sorte?
Macht sie mir vielleicht Pläsier?
Einfach nein! erwidr' ich mir.
Wenn mir aber was nicht lieb,
Weg damit! ist mein Prinzip.«
