''A sublime piece of literary detective work that shows us once and for all how to be precisely the sort of reader that Austen deserves.'' Caroline Criado-Perez, GuardianAlmost everything we think we know about Jane Austen is wrong. Her novels don''t confine themselves to grand houses and they were not written just for readers'' enjoyment. She writes about serious subjects and her books are deeply subversive. We just don''t read her properly - we haven''t been reading her properly for 200 years.Jane Austen, The Secret Radical puts that right. In her first, brilliantly original book, Austen expert Helena Kelly introduces the reader to a passionate woman living in an age of revolution; to a writer who used what was regarded as the lightest of literary genres, the novel, to grapple with the weightiest of subjects - feminism, slavery, abuse, the treatment of the poor, the power of the Church, even evolution - at a time, and in a place, when to write about such things directly was seen as akin to treason.Uncovering a radical, spirited and politically engaged Austen, Jane Austen, The Secret Radical will encourage you to read Jane, all over again.

eBook: První latinskoamerický papež v dějinách svou snahou vytvořit vstřícnější a pozornější církev, která by se lidským problémům věnovala s důrazem na Boží milosrdenství, vyvolal u některých lidí intenzivní strach, že se podřizuje modernímu světu a ničí tradici. František, který na jedné straně čelí vzpourám kvůli svému přístupu k rozvedeným katolíkům a obavám z otázek, jako je migrace a změna klimatu, i bouři kritiky kvůli postupu církve v oblasti pohlavního zneužívání, se na straně druhé ukazuje jako vůdce s pozoruhodnou vizí a schopnostmi, neúnavně zaměřený na duchovní cíle – jako vůdce, který i uprostřed všudypřítomného zmatku zůstává klidný. Kniha barvitě a s nadhledem vykresluje portrét papeže Františka a uvádí nás do turbulencí vyvolaných jeho dalekosáhlými změnami. Ivereighova cesta po klíčových okamžicích Františkovy reformy v Římě a v celé církvi využívá zábavných historek, svědectví přímých účastníků i odborných analýz, aby vrhla světlo na frustraci a zuřivost, ale také radosti a úspěchy, které provázejí jeden z nejpozoruhodnějších pontifikátů současnosti.

„Na prvý pohľad hlavný problém zmeny klímy predstavujú skleníkové plyny. Sú však len symptómom. V jadre klimatickej krízy je sociálny problém... Klimatická zmena sa dá korigovať iba ak zmeníme naše správanie.“ Z tejto pozície analyzuje autor Graeme Maxton, ešte nedávno generálny tajomník Rímskeho klubu, systémové príčiny krízy našej civilizácie, aby sa tak dostal k systémovým riešeniam. Ide teda o viac ako len redukciu uhlíka v atmosfére. Za ničením planetárneho ekosystému musíme vidieť dominantný systém kultúry, ktorý podporuje a priam núti ľudí do organizovaného drancovania prírody. Takéto nastavenie nedokážu zmeniť individuálne akcie, ani apelovanie na uvedomelosť ľudí. Navyše, rozpad ekosystémov a narušenie klímy sú už v takom stupni, že pomôže len okamžitá, skutočne účinná záchranná akcia. Jej nevyhnutnou podmienkou je radikálna zmena ekonomického a politického systému v globálnom rozsahu. „Ako sme sa dostali do tejto situácie, aké dôsledky môžeme očakávať a čo by sme mali ako jednotlivci a spoločnosť urobiť – práve o tom je táto kniha.“

With an Introduction and Notes by Dr Nicola Bradbury, University of Reading. Jane Austen teased readers with the idea of a 'heroine whom no one but myself will much like', but Emma is irresistible. 'Handsome, clever, and rich', Emma is also an 'imaginist', 'on fire with speculation and foresight'. She sees the signs of romance all around her, but thinks she will never be married. Her matchmaking maps out relationships that Jane Austen ironically tweaks into a clearer perspective. Judgement and imagination are matched in games the reader too can enjoy, and the end is a triumph of understanding.

eBook: In time for the highly-awaited TV series, a new edition of Jane Austen\'s delightful final work, set in a newly established seaside resort with a glorious cast of hypochondriacs and speculatorsIn the final months of Jane Austen\'s life, she began work on a new novel about social drama in the small seaside town of Sanditon, once a small fishing village and now a bustling spa town. In the story of Charlotte Heywood, a new arrival, Austen she contemplated a changing society with a mixture of skepticism and amusement, and notably crafted her only character of color in the mixed-race heiress Miss Lambe. Though unfinished at the time of her death, it is a key work for readers of Jane Austen, and all the moreso with a major upcoming TV adaptation. This volume includes Sanditon, as well as two other lesser-known works, Lady Susan and The Watsons. The early epistolary novel Lady Susan depicts an unscrupulous coquette, toying with several men. And The Watsons is a delightful fragment, whose spirited heroine, Emma, finds her marriage opportunities restricted by poverty and pride. With three vital and less familiar works by one of the most important novelists in the English language, this book is a must-have for Austen fans.

A melodramatic story of two cousins who are to be wed and the theatrics of family, this story is perfect if you\'re looking for a lighthearted and funny read. This is an unpolished story from the mind of a girl destined to become one of the greatest female authors of all time and a wonderful example of the flare that Jane Austen had for storytelling.

Exciting facts are woven together with a myriad of architectural styles; the material feats are skillfully and artfully placed upon bold maps, situating the constructions within a geographic context. Alexandre Verhille illustrates maps for a variety of international newspapers and magazines.
