Despite the ongoing process of globalization, there has been definitely set an expressed tendency of so-called ‘international and regional integration’. This tendency is obvious to have become so strong nowadays that almost every field of the international community’s life and activity is subject to integration, which implies regional unification on the basis of similar historic background, geographic location or cultural identity. Therefore, we may safely presume that the all-encompassing process of globalization induces an imminent phenomenon of identification. There are various kinds of such identification: economic, historic, national, etc. Within the framework of our topic, dealing with the ...

When I was very young, I remember I was not very close to many members of my family. I come from a big family with a lot of cousins, aunts, and uncles. There was always so much noise.

Essay on Auerbach and Everything is Illuminated

Auerbach’s book Mimesis: The Representation of Reality in Western Literature discusses the manner in which Homeric story telling is leisurely and digressive.
