تتجاوز النزعة الصوفية في الأدب حدودَ الزمان والمكان، لتصبح تجربة إنسانية عميقة تبحث عن المعنى الكامن خلف ظاهر الجمود. وهي ليست مُجرَّد تأملات رُوحانية عابرة، بل هي مشروع معرفي ووجودي يسعى إلى اكتشاف الحقيقة عبر التجربة الذاتية، والتَّوَحُّدِ معَ الطبيعة، والانفصالِ عن سَطوة العالَم المادي.  في هذا السياق، يلتقي عَالَمَان متباعدان جُغرافيًّا وثقافيًّا: عالَم الصحراء … ظهرت المقالة النزعة الصوفية بين إبراهيم الكوني وهيرمان هيسه أولاً على التنويري.

(The Center Square) – There is another call to end Wisconsin’s April elections. Former Gov. Scott Walker said during a weekend appearance on UpFront that voters would be better served by one, statewide election in November. "Bring it to November when the most people in the state turn out, not only for the courts, for school boards, for every election, have a higher turnout, get everyone involved,” Walker said. Wisconsin has its non-partisan elections for school boards, local councils, and the Wisconsin Supreme Court in April. The former governor said while that may have once been the case, none of those races are non-partisan any longer. "The facade that somehow these are nonpartisan positions, particularly on the Supreme Court, it is clear conservatives get behind one candidate, liberals versus the other, just lay it out there," Walker added. Walker is not the only Republican to call to move the spring elections to November. Former candidate for governor Josh Schoemann proposed moving the spring elections to the fall as part of his proposal to overhaul elections in the state. He too said the April election has grown beyond where it first started. He said voters need to be honest about the politics at play, particularly during the Supreme Court races, and "stop pretending we're something we're not." Moving Wisconsin’s spring elections, however, will not be easy or quick. It would take a constitutional amendment to end the April election. That will take two votes in the legislature in two back-to-back years. It would then require voters to approve the move. The governor would not be able to veto the plan.

(The Center Square) - Voters in Ohio will head to polls on Tuesday to select their respective party nominees after the state legislature conducted a mid-decade redistricting effort to yield greater representation for Republicans in Congress. Voters in the Buckeye state will head to polls to engage in competitive races for federal and statewide representatives. Here are some of those races. Governor Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine is term-limited and cannot run for reelection in the Buckeye state. Instead, a competitive race to succeed the governor is taking place with high-profile names vying for the spot. Vivek Ramasway and Casey Putsch are all vying for the Republican nomination in the state’s governors race. Ramaswamy previously ran against President Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election. Trump endorsed Ramaswamy shortly after he announced the bid for governor in 2025. The endorsement appears to have propelled Ramaswamy to the top of the Republican ticket. “Vivek is a very good person who truly loves our Country,” Trump wrote on social media. “He will be a GREAT Governor of Ohio, will never let you down, and has my COMPLETE AND TOTAL ENDORSEMENT!” Putsch, an entrepreneur, has focused his campaign on targeting DEI programs and immigrant work visas. He has specifically targeted abuses in the H-1B visa lottery system, which recruits high-skilled immigrants to work in technology and science sectors throughout the country. “Ohio is suffering under a corrupt, out of touch political establishment that is selling out the state to mass immigration, data center special interests and more,” Putsch wrote. Ramaswamy’s running mate is Ohio Senate President Rob McColley. He has served in the state senate since 2017. Either Ramaswamy or Patsch will go on to face Dr. Amy Acton, the sole Democratic candidate in Ohio’s gubernatorial race. U.S. Senate U.S. Sen. Jon Husted is looking to win his first election to the congressional body after being appointed to fill Vice President JD Vance’s open Senate seat. Ohio’s U.S. Senate race will count as a special election to determine who fills the remainder of Vance’s term, which is set to end in 2028. Husted faces no challenger in Tuesday’s Republican primary, but a slew of Democrats are vying for the nomination to face off against him in the November election. Former U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown appears to be the frontrunner to challenge Husted in November. Brown previously served as a U.S. Senator for nearly 20 years before being ousted by Sen. Bernie Moreno, R-Ohio, in 2024. Brown has attacked Husted’s voting record and called for bans of stock trading in Congress. He also criticized Husted’s vote on the One Big Beautiful Bill. Brown has also criticized giving tax breaks to corporations. “Ohio deserves a leader who is focused on bringing down costs and making Ohioans’ lives easier every single day,” Brown wrote. Brown will face off against Rob Kincaid for the Democratic nomination. Kincaid proposed a tax on artificial intelligence and automation companies to mitigate the loss of jobs in Ohio. “The result is a modest, guaranteed monthly dividend that helps families cover essentials like rent, groceries, and utilities — without replacing the dignity or value of a good job,” Kincaid wrote. U.S. House In District 1, incumbent Democrat Greg Landsman will look to defend his seat in Congress after the Ohio legislature redrew congressional district boundaries in October 2025. The new map appears to be aimed at unseating Landsman as more Republican favoring areas will now be included in his district. Landsman has highlighted his work to lower healthcare costs and cap insulin costs. He boasted of his prior city council work designed to get wage increases. “Greg is focused on investing in job training and small businesses, raising the minimum wage, and protecting the right to organize,” Landsman’s campaign website reads. Three Republicans have declared candidacy to represent Ohio’s first congressional district. Holly Adams, Eric Conroy and Rosemary Oglesby-Henry have thrown their names in the ring. Conroy, an Air Force veteran and former CIA officer, has focused his campaign on increased national security and competition with foreign nations, like China. “I care deeply about policies that strengthen American competitiveness, support working families, ensure energy independence, and uphold the rule of law,” Conroy wrote. With new traditionally Republican communities in the district, the race toward a general election will be especially competitive in Ohio’s first district. Ohio voters will also head to the polls on Tuesday to select candidates for secretary of state, treasurer, attorney general and the state legislature. Ohio has a Republican trifecta, which means the state senate, house and governor’s office are all controlled by the GOP. Voters will elect 17 of the Senate’s 33 seats in 2026 and will elect all 99 offices in the state’s House of Representatives. The Senate currently has a 23-9 Republican majority while the House has a 65-34 majority. Early voting ends today. Polls are open from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m on Tuesday.

La víctima se había detenido a hacerse una fotografía frente al cartel de una obra de teatro cuando los dos ocupantes de un vehículo descendieron del coche y comenzaron a insultarle con expresiones homófobas antes de propinarle una paliza, según ha denunciado la entidad Sa Clau de s'Armari“Le han jodido la vida”: agresión homófoba al grito de “maricón” contra un vendedor en un mercado de Palma Un hombre ha resultado herido tras sufrir una agresión homófoba este fin de semana en Formentera. Tal como ha denunciado la asociación Sa Clau de s'Armari, el suceso se produjo en una calle peatonal de Formentera cuando la víctima se había detenido a hacerse una fotografía frente a un cartel de la obra de teatro Entrepares. En ese momento, un vehículo con dos ocupantes realizó un amago de atropello para apartarlo. Tras recriminar la maniobra, los supuestos agresores descendieron del coche y, al percatarse del contenido del cartel, comenzaron a insultarle con expresiones homófobas -“y encima maricones”- antes de propinarle una paliza. Según la entidad, el ataque dejó a la víctima con lesiones de consideración, incluyendo hematomas, contusiones y heridas en la cabeza, que requirieron atención médica urgente e incluso tratamiento posterior. Subrayan que no se trata de un altercado aislado, sino de una agresión claramente motivada por odio hacia la orientación sexual. En su nota, Sa Clau de s’Armari reclama una respuesta contundente por parte de las instituciones y exige que se abra una investigación exhaustiva para identificar y detener a los responsables. Insiste en que este tipo de violencia no puede quedar impune y piden la implicación directa tanto de las autoridades insulares como autonómicas. “Una agresión cometida al grito de 'y encima maricones' no es un simple altercado; es un claro y directo delito de odio”, aseveran desde el colectivo, que hace un llamamiento a la Fiscalía de Delitos de Odio para que actúe “con firmeza y trate este caso con la gravedad que merece”. “Instamos a la justicia a ser clara y contundente en la aplicación de la ley para que este hecho no quede sin el castigo adecuado”, inciden. La asociación también pide una condena pública unánime por parte de instituciones, partidos y sociedad civil, especialmente en un contexto cercano al Día Internacional contra la LGTBIfobia, toda vez que advierte de que este caso evidencia la necesidad urgente de reforzar las políticas de prevención y educación en diversidad: “Este lamentable suceso demuestra, desgraciadamente, que nuestro proyecto para prevenir y erradicar la LGTBIfobia no solo es necesario, sino imprescindible. La educación en la diversidad y el respeto es la única vía para borrar el odio al diferente de nuestras calles”. Rechazo institucional a los hechos El caso ha provocado la reacción institucional tanto del Govern balear como del Consell Insular de Formentera, que han condenado lo ocurrido y han trasladado su apoyo a la víctima. La consellera de Familias, Bienestar Social y Atención a la Dependencia, Sandra Fernández, ha calificado los hechos de “absolutamente intolerables” y ha subrayado que “no hay espacio para el odio en Balears”. Además, ha insistido en que cualquier agresión por motivos de orientación sexual “interpela al conjunto de la sociedad”. Desde el Consell de Formentera han señalado que se trata de unos hechos “absolutamente incompatibles” con los valores de la isla y han expresado su voluntad de colaborar para esclarecer lo sucedido y depurar responsabilidades. Ambas instituciones han coincidido en la necesidad de reforzar la denuncia de este tipo de agresiones y de avanzar en políticas públicas que prevengan la LGTBI-fobia y garanticen la protección de las víctimas.
