Noaptea Cărților Deschise

Pe 23 aprilie, în lumea întreagă s-a sărbătorit Ziua Mondială a Cărții. În România, Editura Litera a organizat  cea mai importantă campanie dedicată sărbătorii lecturii, Noaptea Cărților Deschise.

Acesta este prilejul nostru din fiecare an de a ne întâlni cu voi, iubitorii de carte, într-un cadru prietenesc, pentru a marca simbolic un eveniment dedicat uneia dintre celei mai importante invenții ale omenirii, CARTEA.
Alături de voi, am făcut din acest eveniment un adevărat manifest pro-cultură ale cărui ecouri au depășit granițele țării. Este o realizare importantă pentru România, țară pe care statisticile europene o plasează la coada listei la capitolul obișnuințelor de lectură.

Sfântul Gheorghe -Saint George

Saint George , according to legend, was a soldier in the Roman army who later became venerated as a Christian martyr. His parents were Christians of Greek background;his father Gerontius was a Roman army official from Cappadocia and his mother Polychronia was a Christian from Lydda in the Roman province of Syria Palaestina (Palestine). Accounts differ regarding whether George was born in Cappadocia or Syria Palaestina, but agree that he was raised at least partly in Lydda. Saint George became an officer in the Roman army in the Guard of Diocletian, who ordered his death for failing to recant his Christian faith.
