| Introduction | Offshore [George Colang] began publishing articles in 2007 on a Romanian blog, which deals, primarily, with philosophy - A Mental Exercise. Then, in 2010, the idea came to create a mirror blog where these articles would be translated into English and posted. This is what you are offered here, a mirror of a Romanian philosophy blog. Responsible with the translation of these texts is Imola [Eleanor Heaney who, on occasion, might post an article or two, which deal with literature and cultural studies]. |
