1930s Scrapbook
Filled to the brim with images, this scrapbook of the 1930s overflows with nostalgia, for those who remember that extraordinary era. For those who do not, this wealth of imagery provides a vivid insight into a time when sliced bread had just reached the table and Butlin's holiday camps had recently opened.Life in the 1930s for many was not easy; for others, who had known Victorian times, the pace of change was frightening, and 'modern' life led to 'nerve tension'. Yet change brought a better standard of living and numerous new products helped the daily routine. Electrical appliances were a boon to housewives without servants, affordable motor cars made access to the countryside easier, new fun included Dinky Toys, Monopoly and a stream of delectable confectionery (Mars bars, KitKat, Black Magic, Cadbury's Roses). The aluminium milk bottle top made its appearance. Design was memorable for the red telephone kiosk, the Anglepoise lamp and the Underground map - all still in evidence today.The Royal Family went through a turbulent year following the death of George V, when Edward VIII decided he had to abdicate. The speeding motorist was hampered by 30 mph restrictions, and pedestrian crossings were guarded by Belisha beacons. By the end of the 1930s, television held exciting promise for the future, but a growing tension focused on impending war.The 1930s Scrapbook has drawn together the best from the Robert Opie Collection. The images are as bright today as when they were purchased in the shops. Coronation souvenirs, film and fashion magazines, fireworks, comics and Christmas crackers - all survived to tell a remarkable story.

Scrapbook - fotoalba a dárky - Blanka Dudašková - e-kniha
eBook: Podrobná kniha na českém trhu o scrapbooku, který si u nás získává stále větší popularitu. Co je to Scrapbook? To je v prvé řadě spousta času stráveného nad fotkami, papíry, ozdobami, památkami z výletů a opět fotkami. Výsledkem jsou pak jedinečná fotoalba, která se vždy stávají předmětem nadšeného obdivu všude, kde je ukážete. Je to možnost, jak si vlastníma rukama poskládat rodinná alba i se všemi vzpomínkami a rodinnými historkami, které chcete zachovat. Takovéto cestovní deníky a alba z dovolené odrážejí náladu blízkých či dalekých krajů nejen fotkami, ale i laděním a zdobením stránek. Scrapbook vám také dává dobré důvody procházet si staré fotografie a vzpomínky a častěji se vracet i k těm již zpracovaným. Scrapbookové fotoalbum totiž obsahuje vzpomínky dvoje – nejen na samotné snímky a popisované události, ale i na proces tvoření – jak vám u téhle stránky děti málem lezly po hlavě a tam na té máte papírem zakryté flíčky od drobků chleba, když se manžel přišel podívat, na čem právě pracujete. Scrapbook je také dobrý pocit, že tvoříte něco, co zůstává. Mezi denními starostmi, prací, úklidem apod. je úžasné odreagování tvořit něco trvalejšího, než je nedělní oběd. V neposlední řadě scrapbook přináší i možnost poznat nové a stejně „postižené“ lidi, povídat si s nimi, probrat a obdivovat jejich i vaše stránky, účastnit se soutěží, jezdit na srazy, bavit se. Hlavní ale vždy zůstávají fotky a tvorba fotoalb. Pro praktickou představu to funguje nějak takhle: vyberete si pár fotografií k určitému tématu, rozložíte je na čtvrtku papíru, doplníte dalšími vzorovanými papíry, na kartičku napíšete datum a popisek k fotografiím, vymyslíte a z písmen vytvoříte výrazný nadpis, doladíte vhodnými ozdobami a celé slepíte a zařadíte do alba. Se scrapbookovým materiálem nemusíte tvořit jen fotoalba, ale i originální ručně dělaná přáníčka, která jsou mnohem hezčí a osobnější než kupovaná. Také obrázky, diplomy, kalendáře, rámečky na fotografie, krabičky a jiné zdobené předměty – takovéto dokonalé dárky ke všem příležitostem značně zvýší vaši popularitu v rámci rodiny. Baví vás tvořit? Pojďte spolu s knihou objevovat kouzlo originálních fotoalb, přáníček a dalších dárků z papíru zvané scrapbook. Není to tak složité, jak se na první pohled zdá. V této knize najdete mnoho rad a zkušeností autorek pro nákupy, uskladnění materiálu i samotnou tvorbu a také velký výkladový slovník pojmů. S postupy „krok za krokem“ snadno zvládnete své první stránky a pro ty další se můžete inspirovat v ukázkové galerii. Dozvíte se tu vše, co budete pro své scrapbookové začátky potřebovat.

In the Eye of the Storm: Modernism in Ukraine, 1900–1930s - Konstantin Akinsha, Katia Denysova, Olena Kashuba-Volvach
A major study of Ukrainian art from 1900 to the mid-1930s – with loans from major museums in Ukraine, elsewhere in Europe, the United States (including MoMA) and Israel. How does artistic life flourish during revolution and conflict? Ukraine in the early 1900s endured unimaginable political upheaval, yet this became a period of true renaissance in Ukrainian art, literature, theatre and cinema. In the Eye of the Storm: Modernism in Ukraine, 1900–1930s presents the ground-breaking art produced in Ukraine in the early 20th century, focusing on the three key cultural centres of Kyiv, Kharkiv and Odesa. Against a complicated socio-political backdrop of collapsing empires, World War I, the revolutions of 1917 with the ensuing Ukrainian War of Independence, and the eventual creation of Soviet Ukraine, several strands of distinctly Ukrainian art emerged. While émigrés such as Sonia Delaunay and Alexander Archipenko found fame outside their homeland, the followers of Mykhailo Boichuk focused on Byzantine revivalism, and the artists of the Kultur Lige sought to promote the development of contemporary Yiddish culture. The first avant-garde exhibitions in Ukraine featured the radical art of Davyd Burliuk and Alexandra Exter, and the dynamic canvases of the Kyiv-based Cubo-Futurist Oleksandr Bohomazov. In Kharkiv, Vasyl Yermilov championed the industrial art of Constructivism, while Vadym Meller, Anatol Petrytskyi, Oleksandr Khvostenko-Khvostov and Borys Kosarev revolutionized theatre design. The attempt to build a national identity in Ukraine resulted in a polyphony of styles and artistic developments across a full range of media – from oil paintings, sketches and sculpture to collages, cinema posters and theatre designs. Twelve internationally renowned scholars, including curators from the National Art Museum of Ukraine, bring to life this astonishing period of creativity in Ukraine and all the movements it encompassed.

To Kill A Mockingbird - Harper Leeová
''Shoot all the Bluejays you want, if you can hit ''em, but remember it''s a sin to kill a Mockingbird.''Lawyer Atticus Finch gives this advice to his children as he defends the real mockingbird of Harper Lee''s classic novel - a black man charged with the rape of a white girl. Through the young eyes of Scout and Jem Finch, Harper Lee explores with exuberant humour the irrationality of adult attitudes to race and class in the Deep South of the 1930s. The conscience of a town steeped in prejudice, violence and hypocrisy is pricked by the stamina of one man''s struggle for justice. But the weight of history will only tolerate so much...A benchmark of classic American literature, To Kill A Mockingbird approaches the highly sensitive topic of racism in 1930s America with humour, warmth and compassion, making it widely recognised as one of the best books of the twentieth century and in American literature.

Aenne Biermann: Up Close and Personal - Raz Samira
First new monograph in English on the legendary avant-garde photographer Aenne Biermann since the 1930s Features some 100 of Biermann’s works in best color and duotone reproduction, several of which published in this book for the first time ever New essays on Aenne Bierman’s photography in art-historical context and on selected aspects of her oeuvre An exhibition featuring the work of Aenne Biermann is taking place at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art from 5 August 2021 Text in English and Hebrew Aenne Biermann (1898–1933) was one of the leading figures of photography in the 1920s and 1930s. Today, she is considered one of the most important avant-garde photographers of the 20th century. In just a few years of practice, the self-taught artist became a well-known representative of German photography, participating in almost all the important exhibitions of her time. She captured plants, objects, people, and everyday situations in pictures that have to this day lost none of their allure and poignancy. By means of clear structures, precise compositions of light and contrast, as well as narrow framing, she drew a special kind of poetry out of the motifs of her personal environment and developed her own, distinctly modern pictorial style. This is the first substantial new book in English on this exceptional artist since the 1930s, published to coincide with a major exhibition at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art in fall 2021. The large-format volume features some 100 of Aenne Biermann’s photographs in colour and duotone reproduction, several of them published here for the first time ever. This impressive selection is complemented by essays on Biremann’s photography in art-historical context and on selected aspects of her oeuvre. Text in English and Hebrew.

A prophetic and experimental masterpiece by J. G. Ballard, the acclaimed author of ‘Crash’ and ‘Super-Cannes’, featuring an introduction by Hari Kunzru.The human organism is an atrocity exhibition at which he is an unwilling spectator …As the protagonist spirals into the depths of a nervous breakdown, his dreams are haunted by images of John F. Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe, astronauts and car-crash victims. A kaleidoscopic scrapbook of mass culture, his mind fixates on the consumerism of the modern world – a hallucinatory obsession with celebrity, media, sex and violence. With the media infiltrating every corner of our psyche, have the lines blurred between fiction and reality?

Down and Out in Paris and London & The Road to Wigan Pier - George Orwell
George Orwell is a difficult author to summarize. He was a would-be revolutionary who went to Eton, a political writer who abhorred dogma, a socialist who thrived on his image as a loner, and a member of the Imperial Indian Police who chronicled the iniquities of imperialism. Both the books in this volume were published in the 1930s, a \"a low, dishonest decade,\" as his coeval W.H. Auden described it. Orwell's subjects in Down and Out in Paris and London and The Road to Wigan Pier are the political and social upheavals of his time. He focusses on the sense of profound injustice, incipient violence, and malign betrayal that were ubiquitous in Europe in the 1930s. Orwell's honesty, courage, and sense of decency are inextricably bound up with the quasi-colloquial style that imbues his work with its extraordinary power. His descriptions of working in the slums of Paris, living the life of a tramp in England, and digging for coal with miners in the North make for a thoughtful, riveting account of the lives of the working poor and of one man's search for the truth.Our edition includes the following essays: Marrakech; How the Poor Die; Antisemitism in Britain; Notes on Nationalism

Fontana - Barbara Hessová
Debuting in Milan, Fontana settled in Paris in the mid-1930s, where he joined the Abstraction-Création group and created expressionist sculptures in ceramic and bronze. He later moved to Argentina, where he developed his highly influential Technical Manifesto of Spatialism, a modernist marvel, characteristic of postwar innovation and fueled by a forward-looking synthesis of art, technology, and science. With Spatialism, the artist sought to project color and form into spaces, most famously in his minimally ripped or slashed canvases, such as his extensive Spatial Concept Waiting series.

Auschwitz: A History - Steinbacher Sybille
At the terrible heart of the modern age lies Auschwitz. In a total inversion of earlier hopes about the use of science and technology to improve, extend and protect human life, Auschwitz manipulated the same systems to quite different ends. In Sybille Steinbacher's terse, powerful new book, the reader is led through the process by which something unthinkable to any European in the 1930s had become a sprawling, industrial reality during the course of the world war. How Auschwitz grew and mutated into an entire dreadful city, how both those who managed it and those who were killed by it came to be in Poland in the 1940s, and how it was allowed to happen, is something everyone needs to understand.

'On Tyranny is a must read, a clear-eyed guidebook' Ken Burns History does not repeat, but it does instruct.

Memoirs of a Geisha - Arthur Golden
This is a seductive and evocative epic on an intimate scale, which tells the extraordinary story of a geisha girl. Summoning up more than twenty years of Japan's most dramatic history, it uncovers a hidden world of eroticism and enchantment, exploitation and degredation. From a small fishing village in 1929, the tale moves to the glamorous and decadent heart of Kyoto in the 1930s, where a young peasant girl is sold as servant and apprentice to a renowned geisha house. She tells her story many years later from the Waldorf Astoria in New York; it exquisitely evokes another culture, a different time and the details of an extraordinary way of life. It conjures up the perfection and the ugliness of life behind rice-paper screens, where young girls learn the arts of the geisha - dancing and singing, how to wind the kimonok, how to walk and pour tea, and how to beguile the most powerful men.

The unforgettable new novel from the National Book Award-winning, Oprah Book Club-picked, Barack Obama pick, James McBride. In 1972, when workers in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, were digging the foundations for a new development, the last thing they expected to find was a skeleton at the bottom of a well. Who the skeleton was and how it got there were two of the long-held secrets kept by the residents of Chicken Hill, the dilapidated neighbourhood where immigrant Jews and African Americans lived side by side and shared ambitions and sorrows. As the story moves back in time to the 1930s and the characters' stories overlap and deepen, it becomes clear how much the people who live on the margins struggle and what they must do to survive. When the truth is finally revealed about what happened on Chicken Hill, McBride shows us that even in dark times, it is love and community - heaven and earth - that sustain us.

Kniha - anglicky Harper Lee’s novel, published in 1960, has been the centre of controversy again of late, with the question of its appearance on UK schools’ reading lists. For me, it’s no surprise that it’s one of the most studied books in the canon - it’s a classic of American literature, a powerful meditation on prejudice and intolerance which is also a complex and highly skilled exploration of character, social standing and class. At its centre, it’s a novel about tolerance and acceptance. Set in fictional Maycomb, Alabama during the 1930s at a time of unrest – the town is divided by race and class – the narrative is told through the eyes of Scout, a young girl whose father, Atticus, has been employed to defend a black man convicted of the rape of a young white woman.
