 Bulgarian diplomat Irina Bokova has become the first woman to head Unesco, the UN culture and education agency, beating the controversial Egyptian favourite, Farouk Hosni, who sparked a row over censorship and his comments on book-burning. |  PARIS — One of the world’s oldest novels has just become one of the newest. “The Tale of Genji,” an 11th-century Japanese romp that is sometimes called the first true novel, is among about 1,250 books, maps, artworks and other cultural items that went on display online Tuesday in an international library supported by Unesco and the U.S. Library of Congress. |
