الأزرق الأزرق
Amikor a fasizmus uralomra jutása lehetetlenné tette Anna Segher számára is, hogy hazájában éljen és alkosson, hosszú hányattatás után Mexikó, az akkor a demokratikus fejlődés útjára lépő Mexikó volt az az ország, amely a vándort befogadta. De hiába választotta el egy fél világ régi hazájától és a hamarosan lángban álló Európától – az írónő akkor és ott is minden gondolatával otthon járt, mindent leírt szavával az antifasiszták, a becsületes németek harcát igyekezett segíteni. Gyönyörű lírai emléke ennek az időnek önéletrajzi vallomása, A halott lányok kirándulása, amely a kaktuszok szegélyezte mexikói országútra varázsolja egy régi-régi iskolai kirándulás emlékét, felvillantva a hosszú szoknyás, hosszú copfos leányalakok majdani – azóta szintén múlttá vált – jövőjét.
A mexikói idők élményei, emlékei, benyomásai később értek novellákká. Anna Seghers egy kis népcsoport kálváriájával érzékelteti az egész nép történelmi útját, a kegyetlen hódítástól az önálló nemzeti létet és felemelkedést ígérő Cardenas-korszakig. Majd még mélyebbre néz: két ember, egy tudatlan, gyönge és mégis erős leány, Crisanta, és egy szegény falusi fazekas személyében állít örök emléket azoknak az egyszerű embereknek, az oly sok megpróbáltatást elviselt mexikói indiánoknak, akik valóban az írónő otthonává tették a világégés idejére Mexikót.

About the author
Anna Seghers
150 books124 followersAnna Seghers (November 19, 1900, Mainz – June 1, 1983, Berlin) was a German writer famous for depicting the moral experience of the Second World War.
Born Netty Reiling in Mainz in 1900 of partly Jewish descent, she married Laszlo Radvanyi, a Hungarian Communist in 1925.
In Cologne and Heidelberg she studied history, the history of art and Chinese. She joined the Communist Party of Germany in 1928, at the height of its struggle against the burgeoning National Socialist German Workers Party. Her 1932 novel, Die Gefährten was a prophetic warning of the dangers of Fascism, which led to her being arrested by the Gestapo.
After German troops invaded the French Third Republic in 1940, she fled to Marseilles and one year later to Mexico, where she founded the anti-fascist 'Heinrich-Heine-Klub', named after the German Jewish poet Heinrich Heine, and founded Freies Deutschland (Free Germany), an academic journal. During this time, she wrote The Seventh Cross, for which she received the Büchner-Prize in 1947. The novel is set in 1936 and describes the escape of seven prisoners from a concentration camp. It was published in the United States in 1942 and produced as a movie in 1944 by MGM starring Spencer Tracy. The Seventh Cross was one of the very few depictions of Nazi concentration camps, in either literature or the cinema, during World War II.
Seghers best-known story The Outing of the Dead Girls (1946), written in Mexico, was an autobiographical reminiscence of a pre-World War I class excursion on the Rhine river in which the actions of the protagonist's classmates are seen in light of their decisions and ultimate fates during both world wars. In describing them, the German countryside, and her soon-to-be destroyed hometown Mainz, Seghers gives the reader a strong sense of lost innocence and the senseless injustices of war, from which there proves to be no escape, whether or not you sympathized with the Nazi party. Other notable Seghers stories include Sagen von Artemis (1938) and The Ship of the Argonauts (1953), both based on myths.
In 1947, Anna Seghers returned to Germany, moved to West Berlin, and became a member of the SED in the zone occupied by the Soviets. In 1950, she moved to East Berlin and became a co-founder of the freedom movement of the GDR. In 1951, she received both the first Nationalpreis der DDR and the Stalin Peace Prize, and in 1959 the "Ehrendoktorwürde der Universität Jena." In 1981, she became "Ehrenbürgerin" of her native town Mainz.

"في ظل أمل كهذا يعيش الإنسان بأمان يغمر قلبه، حتى لو كان اليأس قد أخذ منه مأخذه"
نوفيلا عن بينيتو الخزّاف المشهور بخزفيّاته الزرقاء، لكِن بسبب الحرب ينقطع استيراد هذه الزرقة المميزة التي هي كل حياة بينيتو فيُضطر لترك بلدته والترحال لإيجاد زرقته.
القصة هادئة وبسيطة للغاية، الترجمة لم تكُن الأفضل ولكن لا بأس بها.
