Ultima Ratio Regum


The last of the reason Kings, "Ultima Ratio Regum".
£250.00

Ti Noel had spent his inheritance and, despite having reached the last misery, was leaving the same inheritance received. It was a body of flesh elapsed. And he understood now that the man never knows who suffer and wait for ....... But the greatness of man is precisely that he is wanting to improve what he is. In imposing Tasks to himself. In the Kingdom of Heaven there is no greatness to conquer, since there all is an established  hierarchy, cleared incognita , eternal existence ...  therefore, overwhelmed with grief and tasks, beautiful in his misery, able to love in the midst of the plagues, the man just can find his greatness in the Kingdom of this World.
Alejo Carpentier, "The Kingdom of this World".



Ti Noel habia gastado su herencia y, a pesar de haber llegado a la ultima miseria, dejaba la misma herencia recibida. Era un cuerpo de carne transcurrida. Y comprendia, ahora, que el hombre nunca sabe para quien padece y espera....
...Pero la grandeza del hombre esta precisamente en querer mejorar lo que es. En imponerse Tareas. En el Reino de los Cielos no hay grandeza que consquistar, puesto que alla todo es jerarquia establecida, incognita despejada, existir sin termino... por ello, agobiado de penas y de tareas, hermoso dentro de su miseria, capaz de amar en medio de las plagas, el hombre solo puede hayar su grandeza en el Reino de este Mundo.
Alejo Carpentier. "El Reino de este Mundo".
