Overture to April's Issue.

 Kept these imprisoned children of the Hours
Within my hand,—and then, elate and gay,
I hastened to the spot whence I had come,
That I might there present it!—Oh! to whom?“


The season of bloom has begun… at least astrologically, since the weather is as unstable as a woman’s mood. Nevertheless, when the sky is not gloomy, that wintery thin layer of snow or ice on the pavement is absent and a ray of fresh sunlight beams at us through the clouds, merry muses are awakened. Our physical and especially mental energy is renewed and as the concluding lines of P. B. Shelley’s The Question imply, the intense desire to share what our minds or hands have created is reborn... Hence here is the second issue of the student magazine The Musepaper!
As promised, this issue is of a more varied content – movie reviews have been extended to a recollection of Two Door Cinema Club’s concert and instead of a satire, one can find two humorous accounts of the annual Ball of our faculty… New genres are also included: poems, a travel report, an event planner, a short story, an interview with one of our beloved teachers and a section named “Visual Muses” that refers to art created by our course-mates – in this issue it is a glance into the sketchbook of one of the ever-busy double-subject students. Make haste! It’s all ahead of you to read and enjoy.
