La Baronesa y la Pasionaria – Folha de S. Paulo, 19 de diciembre de 1977
Por Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira Hasta la caída del gabinete de Chamberlain, con los primeros estruendos de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, Winston Churchill, su personalidad y su figura me resultaban más o menos indiferentes. De hecho, desde la perspectiva del público brasileño, el sucesor de Chamberlain hasta entonces se perdía entre la multitud —por […]
Ayer, hace tanto tiempo – Folha de S. Paulo, 25 de octubre de 1980
Por Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira El año 1980 se acerca a su fin. Dentro de dos meses, todos tendrán la mirada puesta en las fiestas de fin de año. Y así llegarán las clásicas e inevitables retrospectivas para hacer un balance de lo que quedó atrás. Por mi parte, empiezo hoy. ¿Se podría […]
L’uomo-formica – Folha de S. Paulo, 11 luglio 1981
L’uomo-formica è pronto a svendere la sua patria, come fa con le sue credenze. Preferisce non vedere il nemico.
The Termite Man: the triumph of midgets in modern society – Folha de S. Paulo, July 11, 1981
By midgets I mean those small-minded men who fit neatly into the little slots of everyday life. They want a life made of everyday banalities. Yesterday was colorless, odorless, and insipid for them, just like today and tomorrow. Banality is the oxygen they breathe, and the pleasure they derive from things is essentially repetition.
The Mediocre and the “Mediocrats” – Folha de S. Paulo, June 20, 1981
Mediocrity is the evil of those who, completely absorbed by the pleasures of laziness and taking delight only in whatever is within reach of their hands, totally confining themselves to the immediate, make stagnation the normal condition of their existences.
Be Consistent – Folha de S. Paulo, May 9, 1981
On the night of last April 12th, a strong reddish glare, also seen with shades of green, orange, and light yellow, illuminated the skies of the United States. The night became so bright that cars could drive with their headlights off. Is it a new sign to humanity whose impenitence continues to affront Our Lady of Fatima?
Softliners and “Softliners” – Folha de S. Paulo, April 11, 1981
The most universal, continuous, and enthusiastic symphony of publicity is no reason to confide in anyone. On the contrary…
What Next? – Folha de S. Paulo, April 08, 1981
While a certain degree of cunning is required of the spy, much more is required of the deviator. His mission is to infiltrate the core of the opposing party, sow factors of division, propose wrong maneuvers, and foment the discouragement arising from reverses. I tremble for “Solidarity” in Poland as I think of this.
Living Tableaux – Explosions – Folha de S. Paulo, March 13, 1981
According to the Polish Army paper “Zolnierz Wolnosci” some Catholic priests affirm that there is a betrayal on the part of Cardinal Wyszinski, who is playing a game in complicity with the communists. Is this an invention? – The Kremlin and Eurocommunism – Suspense on the Brazilian scene.
Water, Fire and Flower – Folha de S. Paulo, February 23, 1981
For many religious, historical, ethnic, and geographical reasons Poland of itself merits special respect and affection from all Catholics. Consequently, current events there should attract everyone’s attention – Warsaw communist government, the episcopate and “Solidarity”.
