thank you, Livia, the two poems are very beautifully read, although this time, I did not understand that much I like the second one, that it's a sort of dialogue. I checked cerbul with google translate, so this is a stag. And the other the emperor who wants to kill him ?livia wrote: ↑July 6th, 2018, 8:37 am Here are two poems by Dimitrie Bolintineanu:

There are several legends about Curtea de Argeș Monastery.
These legends have inspired many Romanian writers.
Neagoe Basarab and his wife were founders of Curtea de Arges Monastery.
Neagoe Basarab's wife offered her jewels for sale, to get money for this cathedral.
This beautiful act is described, in a dramatic way, by D.Bolintineanu in his poem Dómna luĭ Négoe.
You understand well, Sonia
There is a dialogue between a stag and an emperor.
The stag is hunted by the emperor at the request of his wife. The stag (he is also the prophet) asks the emperor to delay his death, but the emperor can not fulfill his prayer. Then, the stag tells him a prophecy: They will both die tonight. The Emperor will be killed by his wife, who will lead the empire together with her lover.
The poem has significant allegorical content.
Best regards,
Livia

wow thank you ! This is a bit of a creepy tale. I have not read anything by Echegaray so far, but if his stories are all a bit like this, I may read some others one of these days. I hope he is already translated in English, as my Spanish is not good enough to really get all the details which are surely important.Epachuko wrote: ↑July 16th, 2018, 9:20 am I bring a little short tale of José Echegaray, I saw that his name is on the data base but no mention that he was the first Nobel Prize of Literature of the spanish letters (award in 1904).

This section is PL ok. And wonderfully narrated again.
there is no limit of sections you can contribute to this project though. Don't worry about "abusing". I don't mind hearing more Spanish stories.I do not want to abuse cause I am reading too much on the same short work collection ahaha so I will keep myself silent on this proyect , cause there are a lot of other readers with so many languages and texts!!!
BTW I updated his biography and mentioned the Nobel prize award. Thank you for the information. https://librivox.org/author/9045
