I was not Born for Quiet
Thanks to Janko Kráľ, as John Minahane has written, the Váh is Slovakia’s most mystical river. Again and again the poet returns to his community via that flagship poem of Slovak romanticism, The Enchanted Maiden in the Váh and Odd Johnny. Characteristic in Kráľ’s poetry is his focus on the inward side of events and stories, turned inside out, since one has to turn one’s clothing inside out/ and leap in the middle of the Váh. By this means, metaphysical space is opened. There the spirit is so blended together with reality that it becomes possible to break the spell on the maiden (motherland) in the river Lethe, which is life’s inverted clepsydra. Time always freshly poses the question, which young man wants to give body to his thought. And what unwinds from that is not only a defiant faith in the mission of poetry, but also Janko Kráľ’s courage to stand up for the language and national rights of Slovaks in 1848. To give the time a face where our identity is mirrored.
To this day we do not know exactly how Janko Kráľ looked in reality. Using the surviving descriptions of Kráľ’s appearance, he therefore created a metaphysical portrait with the digital tool Metahuman Creator, which is designed for creating figures for video games. Subsequently he placed this virtual figure in a contemporary context, in the form of manipulated photographs from the mass media.

A Bridgerton család 1: A herceg és én (filmes borítóval)
A regény alapján készült sorozat 2020 decemberétől látható a Netflixen.
Létezik-e nagyobb kihívás a londoni előkelő társaság ambiciózus anyái számára, mint egy nőtlen herceg, akihez lányukat örömest feleségül adnák?
Minden jel arra mutat, hogy Simon Basset meg fogja kérni legjobb barátja húga, a bájos és okos Daphne Bridgerton kezét. Ami csak kettejük titka: házasságról szó sincs, csak így kívánják Simontól távol tartani a lányaikat férjhez adni kívánó, igen aktív társasági hölgyeket. Daphne pedig, mivel hercegi udvarló találta kívánatosnak, később alkalmas kérőket kaphat.
Ám miközben Daphne sorra keringőzi Simonnal a bálokat, igen nehéz arra gondolnia, hogy az egész csak színlelés. A férfi ravaszkás mosolya talán, de tekintete felragyogása bizonyosan azt a hatást éri el, hogy Daphne beleszeret a szép hercegbe. Ez már egyáltalán nem színlelés. A lány a lehetetlennel próbálkozik: megpróbálja meggyőzni a gyönyörű szoknyavadászt, hogy okos kis tervüket némiképp módosítaniuk kell, és semmi nem olyan jó, mint szerelmesnek lenni...

Poézia pre dvoch Poetry For Two
Básnická kniha Poézia pre dvoch Poetry For Two je napísaná po slovensky a anglicky, v dvoch jazykoch, ktorými poetka Ivana Komanická myslí, v ktorých si uvedomuje svoje bytie a v ktorých tvaruje svet okolo seba. Podoba básní je určená konverzačným tónom reálnych a fiktívnych rozhovorov s partnerom a z virtuálnej podstaty reči sa postupne začínajú formovať skutočné udalosti a skutoční ľudia zachytení v nečakanej a naliehavej situácii. Básne plynú ako políčka filmu a v ich osobitom a ľahkom rytme sa odkrýva a zahaľuje všetko to, čo človek túži povedať alebo hovorením zakryť. Kniha je vnútorne spojená s autorkinou lyrickou prózou Pre teba sa postavím proti sebe (2018) a spolu zobrazujú životný príbeh človeka zasiahnutého prítomnosťou, v ktorej sú zviditeľnené fragmenty individuálnej pamäti a záblesky toho, čo sa môže stať.
