Save Plural - relaunched!

The fate of Plural magazine is still under the axe and awaiting a conclusion. Just in case any of you still haven't written to support its survival, you can still do so addressing your mails to icr@icr.ro and for the attention of Horia Roman Patapievici, ICR director.

Should you still not know what Plural is all about, here's a copied and pasted explanation from their 'About Us' page:

Plural is an English-language book-format (since 2008, online) magazine published under the aegis of the Romanian Cultural Institute in Bucharest, Romania (with branches in: Berlin, Brussels, Budapest, Istanbul, Lisbon, London, Madrid, New York, Paris, Prague, Rome, Stockholm, Szeged, Tel Aviv, Venice, Vienna, Warsaw). The first issue came out in 1999. 

Its chief objective is to offer English (and, in special editions, other languages) speakers – students and teachers, individuals and organizations – interested in various aspects of Romanian life a comprehensive, balanced and ever-broadening perspective on a variety of subjects, through fiction, articles, and essays by classic and contemporary authors, as well as graphic art and photographs. In this respect, Plural is unique among Romanian periodicals.

Themes and domains covered so far include literature, history, art and architecture, anthropology, sociology, ethnography, philosophy, science, music and choreography, minorities, children, the environment, and many more. Beginning with 2005, the translations have been supervised (and some of them made) by native English speakers.

In 2008, Plural went online, with the editors’ intention to make www.plural-magazine.com the largest English-language online database of Romanian culture and civilization and a prime source of reference. Significant portions from the 31 issues printed until 2008 are incorporated into the website, to which new, exciting themes continue to be added, as well as links to relevant websites and video and sound clips, while Plural remains open to suggestions and proposals.
