Na základě kvalitativní analýzy biografických rozhovorů s přistěhovalci z Běloruska, Ukrajiny a Ruska žijících v České republice autorka zjišťuje, jak se utvářejí symbolické hranice přináležení skrze stigma v každodenních interakcích v sociálním a kulturním kontextu imigrace. Kniha si všímá rozporuplné kulturní reprezentace této skupiny migrantů v českém prostoru etnizovaných vztahů – zvláštního napětí mezi pozicí ‚Druhého‘ (‚Other) a ‚Bratra‘ (‚Brother‘) ve vztahu k Čechům.

I met Reda on Christmas Eve 2012, at around four in the morning. He approached me in the street, and finally I invited him up to my apartment. He told me the story of his childhood and how his father had come to France, having fled Algeria. We spent the rest of the night together, talking, laughing. At around 6 o'clock, he pulled out a gun and said he was going to kill me. He insulted me, strangled and raped me. The next day, the medical and legal proceedings began. History of Violence retraces the story of that night, and looks at immigration, class, racism, desire and the effects of trauma in an attempt to understand a history of violence, its origins, its reasons and its causes.

Časť Nízkych Tatier s krasovým reliéfom tu vytvorila rôzne zaujímavé útvary a jaskyne, najmä v Demänovskej doline a v Jánskej doline. Osou územia okresu je Váh. Najdlhšia slovenská rieka vzniká sútokom Bieleho Váhu a Čierneho Váhu pri Kráľovej Lehote. Ďalej už pokračuje iba ako Váh. Z pravej strany je jej najvýznamnejším prítokom rieka Belá, ktorá pramení priamo pod vrchom Kriváň. Asi to predurčilo jej dravosť, vďaka čomu ju vyhľadávajú milovníci horského splavovania. Ale má aj svoju pokojnú stránku. K zaujímavým miestam pri rieke totiž patrí aj Múzeum liptovskej dediny v Pribyline, kam bol prenesený zo zátopovej oblasti ranogotický Kostol Panny Márie z Liptovskej Mary.

Mimoriadne zachované stredoveké opevnenie a majestátna renesančná mestská veža strážia a kraľujú celému mestu. Zo starobylých uličiek dodnes dýcha atmosféra jedného z najvýznamnejších uhorských miest. Avšak nie je to len najdlhšia história spomedzi miest, ktorá dodáva Trnave iskru jedinečnosti. Trnavu zdobí aj množstvo kostolov, vďaka ktorým si vyslúžila pomenovanie „malý Rím“. Pozorne načúvajte starobylým múrom Baziliky sv. Mikuláša či Katedrály sv. Jána Krstiteľa, ktoré v sebe ukrývajú množstvo príbehov. Korunu nad celým regiónom tvoria Malé Karpaty. Osobitným šarmom oplývajú starobylé zrúcaniny hradov, ukryté v ich lesoch. Hlavnou úlohou hradov Ostrý Kameň a Dobrá Voda bola kedysi ochrana dôležitej cesty z Trnavy na Záhorie a na Moravu. Časy najväčšej slávy už majú síce dávno...

Kniha - autor Matej Schwarzbacher, 160 stran, slovensky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá Bolo to dávno-pradávno, keď sa Hron predral pomedzi tri pohoria, aby stvoril tento kraj. Aby sa zo zajatia hôr dostal na šíru nížinu, vytvoril medzi nimi úzky zárez, tzv. Slovenskú bránu. V tejto oblasti sa našlo pomerne veľa pravekých osád či slovanských hradísk a sú s ňou spojené pamiatky našej najstaršej histórie. Kláštorný komplex s majestátnou gotickou bazilikou v Hronskom Beňadiku sa nazýva aj „perla Pohronia“. V roku 1083 tu bol napísaný Nitriansky kódex – najstaršia listinná ručne písaná pamiatka Slovenska. Počas stredoveku sa celý región rozvíjal najmä vďaka baníctvu. V mnohých obciach sa dodnes stretneme s nádhernou baníckou architektúrou od klopačiek cez meštianske domy až po honosné budovy bývalých banských úradov. Baníctvu vďačíme aj za pamiatku UNESCO v tomto regióne. Ide o Voznickú dedičnú štôlňu – unikátne a najdlhšie banské dielo na Slovensku. Odvodňuje bane od...

Kniha - autor Bohuš Schwarzbacher; Lubor Vyskoč, 208 stran, slovensky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá Zemplín a Šariš. Poznáte? Dva rázovité východoslovenské regióny. Úchvatná príroda,malebné zákutia, bohatá história a pestrá prítomnosť. A práve tomuto čarovnému kúsku Slovenska je venovaná táto unikátna kniha. Punc výnimočnosti jej dáva jedinečný pohľad na krajinu, na jej hlboké lesy, rozľahlé lúky, farebné polia, životodarné rieky Topľu a Ondavu, očarujúcu Domašu, mestá Vranov nad Topľou a Hanušovce nad Topľou, dediny a dedinky, všetky historické, kultúrne i technické pamiatky či iné zaujímavosti kraja hodné navštívenia. A to všetko z pohľadu, aký má možnosť vidieť len málokto. Južná časť regiónu leží na okraji Východoslovenskej nížiny. Okolo nej jej korunu vytvárajú pohoria Slanské vrchy a Ondavská vrchovina. Uprostred tejto koruny leží aj centrum celého regiónu – Vranov nad Topľou. Jeho pýchou je majestátna bazilika minor s kláštorným komplexom. Krása histórie a...

Kniha - slovensky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá Centrálna osídlená časť kraja leží v Liptovskej kotline, nad ktorou sa na severe dvíhajú Západné Tatry a Chočské vrchy, na juhu Nízke Tatry a Kozie chrbty. Časť Nízkych Tatier s krasovým reliéfom tu vytvorila rôzne zaujímavé útvary a jaskyne, najmä v Demänovskej doline a v Jánskej doline. Osou územia okresu je Váh. Najdlhšia slovenská rieka vzniká sútokom Bieleho Váhu a Čierneho Váhu pri Kráľovej Lehote. Ďalej už pokračuje iba ako Váh. Z pravej strany je jej najvýznamnejším prítokom rieka Belá, ktorá pramení priamo pod vrchom Kriváň. Asi to predurčilo jej dravosť, vďaka čomu ju vyhľadávajú milovníci horského splavovania. Ale má aj svoju pokojnú stránku. K zaujímavým miestam pri rieke totiž patrí aj Múzeum liptovskej dediny v Pribyline, kam bol prenesený zo zátopovej oblasti ranogotický Kostol Panny Márie z Liptovskej Mary. Váh svojou silou dlho narúšal bezpečný život v tejto oblasti, časté potopy obyvatelia Liptova...

Kniha - autor Bohuš Schwarzbacher, 144 stran, slovensky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá rnava – prvé privilegované slobodné kráľovské mesto. Týmto prvenstvom sa pýši Trnava od roku 1238. Mimoriadne zachované stredoveké opevnenie a majestátna renesančná mestská veža strážia a kraľujú celému mestu. Zo starobylých uličiek dodnes dýcha atmosféra jedného z najvýznamnejších uhorských miest. Avšak nie je to len najdlhšia história spomedzi miest, ktorá dodáva Trnave iskru jedinečnosti. Trnavu zdobí aj množstvo kostolov, vďaka ktorým si vyslúžila pomenovanie „malý Rím“. Pozorne načúvajte starobylým múrom Baziliky sv. Mikuláša či Katedrály sv. Jána Krstiteľa, ktoré v sebe ukrývajú množstvo príbehov. Korunu nad celým regiónom tvoria Malé Karpaty. Osobitným šarmom oplývajú starobylé zrúcaniny hradov, ukryté v ich lesoch. Hlavnou úlohou hradov Ostrý Kameň a Dobrá Voda bola kedysi ochrana dôležitej cesty z Trnavy na Záhorie a na Moravu. Časy najväčšej slávy už majú síce dávno...

Kniha - autor Miroslava Daranská; Bohuš Schwarzbacher, 200 stran, slovensky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá Hlohovec je už niekoľko desaťročí známy ako „mesto ruží“. Tento prívlatok mesto získalo pomerne nedávno – približne v 60. rokoch minulého storočia. A úzko súvisí s tunajšou zámockou záhradou v štýle záhrad francúzskych zámkov. V tomto období tu vo veľkom začali pestovať ruže, čo pretrvalo dodnes. Ruže však nie sú len okrasou zámockej záhrady. Rastú skutočne po celom meste. Pre samotný Hlohovec to v minulosti znamenalo aj istú prestíž. Ruže, alebo kvety vo všeobecnosti, sa vo veľkom vysádzali najmä v šľachtických sídlach či kúpeľných mestách. Mesto, ale najmä región okolo neho je odpradávna známy aj ako kraj vína. Cesta nápoja bohov začína v rozprávkových scenériách vinohradov, slnkom zaliatych strání či malebných starodávnych pivničiek. V tomto kraji sa však nachádza aj mnoho iných, menej známych miest, ktoré stoja za spoznanie. A keďže človek je tvor zvedavý,...

Kniha - autor Brene Brown, 288 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná Every time we are introduced to someone new, try to be creative, or start a difficult conversation, we take a risk.
