Ladies Portraits from a non-ladies man: Women in the Poetry of C.P. Cavafy Martha Vassiliadi
The title of this essay seems as a fake dilemma or almost sacrilege, since it is well known how Cavafy did not love the "weak" sex, how he rejected the post romantic voluptuousness of his time and how he wasn’t inspired by passions and mythical separations. But how and from what poetic passage Cavafy slips, even "imperceptibly" in the ontological cosmology of Women ? How and by what virtue women gain a place in Cavafy’s ritual of historical construction, how do they fit in this highly erotic gay scenery?
formualte paradigms in a technicque of neurolinguistics that can be so profitable as some recurrente neural networks, artificial and natural codes in language and systems

Please enjoy my novel. If you liked it a lot, I hope you'll go over to Amazon or another ebook retailer and buy it as an ebook. I'm trying a "busker" model....if you like it, in other words, please contribute some money by buying it and that will (hopefully) motivate me to write more novels. Without your support, I'm really not motivated, which is sad, but that's just the way it is.

California at Berkeley. From her family background Id(# Guirr acqrrin1rl rr rii~uble
orientation, humanistic and scientific, that shows in all her writ in^. She 7i)tls
educated at Radcliffe College and Columbia University, where she corrrl?l~,tod rr
master's thesis i n medieval romance literature. In 1953 she married the historirrrr
Charles Le G u i n , with w h o m she had three children. Although she wrote her first
science-fiction story at the age of twelve, she didn't begin publishing until t w e n t y
years later. O n e of her stories, "Semley's Necklace," grew into her first publishrd
novel, Rocannon's World (1966). Another story, "Winter's King," introduced the
setting she developed for her first major success, the novel The Left Hand of
Darkness (1969). These stories and novels, along with Planet of Exile (1966),
City of Illusions (1967), The Dispossessed (1974), the novella The Word for
World Is Forest (1976), and stories i n The Wind's Twelve Quarters (1976),
form the Hainish cycle, a series of independent works sharing an imaginary historic
background. Le G u i n has also published several other fantasy novels and three more
story collections.
Although Le Guin's earliest work primarily attracted a devoted audience of
science-fiction readers, her later work - especially The Left Hand of Darkness
- has wider appeal. In that novel she explored the theme of androgyny o n the
planet W i n t e r (Gethen), where inhabitants m a y adopt alternately male and female
roles. Le G u i n insists o n Aristotle's definition of Homo sapiens as social animals,
and she shows how difficult it is to think of our fellow humans as people, rather
than as m e n and women.
Le G u i n brings to fantasy fiction a wealth of literary scholarship, crediting
Leo Tolstoy, A n t o n Chekhov, and Virginia Woolf (among others) as her primary
influences. Most of her stories, like "The Ones W h o Walk A w a y from Omelas," are
about reciprocal relationships, illustrating "the sort of golden rule that whatever
you touch, touches you." This m a x i m has scientific backings i n ecology and philo-
sophical echoes i n Taoism and Z e n . Le G u i n doesn't claim to be a brilliant stylist
or an original thinker. She has said that she works best with what she calls "fortune
cookie ideas" suggested by someone else. Through her stories she shows how simple
concepts hide a mass of complexity and contradiction that can create anarchy when
human beings t r y to act o n them. In 1979 Le G u i n published a book developing her
ideas about writing, The Language of Night: Essays on Fantasy and Science
Fiction.
