Sylvia Plathová (1932 - 1963), americká prozaička a básnířka, je známa českým čtenářům díky románu Pod skleněným zvonem (Argo, 1998) a sbírce Noční tance (Argo, 2002). Nyní Argo přichází se souborem tří kratších dětských příběhů, které potěší nejen děti, ale uchvátí i dospělé. Obdivovatele Plathové jistě překvapí nečekaná hravost a rozmarná potrhlost textů. Prozaický příběh Kuchyň paní Třešinkové napsala Plathová v roce 1958 pro dětský časopis, publikován byl ale poprvé až v roce 2001, tedy 38 let po autorčině dobrovolné smrti. Vypráví se v něm o kuchyňských přístrojích, jež jsou přesvědčeny, že dokážou lépe plnit úkoly svěřené jejich kolegům v kuchyni, a způsobí tím naprostý chaos. Ve veršované Knížce o postelích, poprvé vydané v roce 1976, sestavila Plathová úžasnou kolekci všemožných postelí s překvapivými, báječnými schopnostmi - dovedou kupříkladu cestovat pod vodou, plachtit vzduchem, spát pod sněhem, poskakovat či malovat. Třetí příběh o Tomášovi a jeho vytouženém hořčicově žlutém obleku pro všechny příležitosti má název Oblek, kterému nic nevadilo

Druhá básnická sbírka Sylvie Plathové nazvaná Ariel, vydaná v roce 1965, tedy dva roky po autorčině smrti, patří k nejslavnějším angloamerickým básnickým knihám dvacátého století. K jejímu kultovnímu statusu samozřejmě nemalou měrou přispěl příběh obestírající její vydání: mladá, nadějná, půvabná básnířka, zmítaná od dětství úzkostmi a depresí, si po rozpadu svého manželství vzala život; texty z její pozůstalosti pak vydal její manžel a otec jejích dvou dětí, básník Ted Hughes - a ukázalo se, že Ariel je autorčino opus magnum… Výsadní postavení Sylvie Plathové v rámci moderní angloamerické literatury ovšem není způsobeno jen oním tragickým příběhem, nýbrž především nespornou silou její poezie: Plathová je básnířka nesmírně sensitivní, básnířka přetavující veškeré podněty zvenčí v zcela svébytný, bolestný výraz, který je přitom v básních reflektován, pozorován jaksi z odstupu, s drsnou a všeprostupující ironií. K věhlasu autorčiny poezie v českém kontextu pak bezesporu přispěly překlady Jana Zábrany, pro něhož Plathová představovala velké, uhrančivé téma. Překladu sbírky Ariel se věnoval bezmála dvacet let - a nad hotovým dílem si poznamenal: "Žádná ženská mě v životě neutahala tak jako Sylvia Plathová (…) Do těch básní se nelze dostat paklíčem, spíš to chce rozrazit skořápku jako ořech - a pak začít pracovat se střepy (…) ...

The complete edition of Sylvia Plath''s prose including much unpublished and previously uncollected material, edited by Peter K. Steinberg.The Collected Prose stands alongside the Journals (2000) and the two volume Letters (2017 and 2018) to support a more complete understanding of Sylvia Plath’s ambition and achievement as a writer. Expanding on the selection published as Johnny Panic and the Bible of Dreams (1977), this volume draws together all of Sylvia Plath’s shorter prose, much of which is previously uncollected and unpublished. The volume embraces her experiments with the short story and pieces of non-fiction from the 1940s through to her more polished compositions of the fifties and early sixties, including fragments of fiction as well as her journalism and book reviews. Themes and associations become apparent as the volume offers new, intertextual ways of reading across Plath’s oeuvre, colouring and shading our understanding and appreciation of her extraordinary talent.‘To see so much of [Plath’s] surviving fiction and journalism, so many of her essays and reviews, finally published under one cover is to be surprised all over again by the breadth of her vision, ambition and talent . . .

Jediný román kultovní americké básnířky Sylvie Plathové Pod skleněným zvonem vznikl v roce 1962 – údajně hektickým tempem – a vyšel pod pseudonymem Victoria Lucas v lednu 1963, pouhý měsíc před dobrovolnou smrtí autorky. Kniha se dnes počítá k americké klasice a bývá stavěna především do sousedství Salingerovy přelomové prózy „Kdo chytá v žitě“. Dospívající vypravěčka Esther vstupuje do „velkého světa“, který jí ale zůstává cizí a přiměje ji až k rozhodnutí odejít ze života, realizovaném v sérii nezdařilých pokusů. Jedinečnost románu tkví v tom, jak proti sobě – či spíše vedle sebe – staví život a smrt, konformitu a sebedestruktivitu, „zdravý rozum“ a údajnou choromyslnost. Knihu vydáváme ve vynikajícím překladu Tomáše Hrácha, pro nějž byla Sylvia Plathová doslova osudovou autorkou.

Upon the publication of her posthumous volume of poetry Ariel in 1965, Sylvia Plath became a household name. Readers may be surprised to learn that the draft of Ariel left behind by Plath when she died in 1963 is different from the volume of poetry eventually published to worldwide acclaim.This facsimile edition restores, for the first time, the selection and arrangement of the poems Sylvia Plath left at the point of her death. In addition to the facsimile pages of Sylvia Plath''s manuscript, this edition also includes in facsimile the complete working drafts of the title poem ''Ariel'' in order to offer a sense of Plath''s creative process, as well as notes the author made for the BBC about some of the manuscript''s poems, including ''Daddy'' and ''Lady Lazarus''In her insightful foreword to this volume, Frieda Hughes, Sylvia Plath''s daughter, explains the reasons for the differences between the previously published edition of Ariel as edited by her father, Ted Hughes, and her mother''s original version published here. With this publication, Sylvia Plath''s legacy and vision will be reevaluated in the light of her original working draft.

Sylvia Plath: Drawings is a portfolio of pen-and-ink illustrations created during the transformative period spent at Cambridge University, when Plath met and secretly married poet Ted Hughes, and traveled with him to Paris and Spain on their honeymoon, years before she wrote her seminal work, The Bell Jar.

This collection sheds light on these key years in her life, capturing her exquisite observations of the world around her. It includes Plath’s drawings from England, France, Spain, and New England, featuring such subjects as Parisian rooftops, trees, and churches, as well as a portrait Ted Hughes.

Including poems such as ''Lady Lazarus'', ''Edge'', ''Daddy'' and ''Paralytic'', it was the first of four collections to be published by Faber & Faber. Ariel is the volume on which Sylvia Plath''s reputation as one of the most original, daring and gifted poets of the twentieth century rests.''Since she died my mother has been dissected, analysed, reinterpreted, reinvented, fictionalized, and in some cases completely fabricated.

The Journals of Sylvia Plath offers an intimate portrait of the author of the extraordinary poems for which Plath is so widely loved, but it is also characterized by a prose of vigorous immediacy which places it alongside The Bell Jar as a work of literature. These exact and complete transcriptions of the journals kept by Plath for the last twelve years of her life - covering her marriage to Ted Hughes and her struggle with depression - are a key source for the poems which make up her collections Ariel and The Colossus.''Everything that passes before her eyes travels down from brain to pen with shattering clarity - 1950s New England, pre-co-ed Cambridge, pre-mass tourism Benidorm, where she and Hughes honeymooned, the birth of her son Nicholas in Devon in 1962. These and other passages are so graphic that you look up from the page surprised to find yourself back in the here and now . . .

Faber Stories, a landmark series of individual volumes, presents masters of the short story form at work in a range of genres and styles. Lips the colour of blood, the sun an unprecedented orange, train wheels that sound like 'guilt, and guilt, and guilt': these are just some of the things Mary Ventura begins to notice on her journey to the ninth kingdom. 'But what is the ninth kingdom?' she asks a kind-seeming lady in her carriage.'It is the kingdom of the frozen will,' comes the reply. 'There is no going back.' Sylvia Plath's strange, dark tale of independence over infanticide, written not long after she herself left home, grapples with mortality in motion. Bringing together past, present and future in our ninetieth year, Faber Stories is a celebratory compendium of collectable work.

Originally published in 1960, The Colossus was the only volume of Sylvia Plath''s poetry published before her death in 1963. Showing a scholarly dedication to the craft, the poems in this collection are brimming with originality and the startling imagery that would later confirm her status as one of the most important poets of the twentieth century. ''On every page, a poet is serving notice that she has earned her credentials and knows her trade.'' Seamus Heaney ''She steers clear of feminine charm, deliciousness, gentility, supersensitivity and the act of being a poetess. She simply writes good poetry. And she does so with a seriousness that demands only that she be judged equally seriously . . .

Sharing her more than 15 years of compelling research—including analysis of Sylvia Plath’s unpublished calendars, notebooks, scrapbooks, book annotations, and underlinings, as well as published memoirs, biographies, letters, journals, and interviews with Plath and her husband, friends, and family—Plath scholar Julia Gordon-Bramer reveals Sylvia Plath’s enduring interest and active practice in mysticism and the occult from childhood until her tragic death in 1963. She examines Plath’s early years growing up in a transcendentalist Unitarian church under a brilliant, if stern, Freemason father and a mother who wrote her master’s dissertation on the famous alchemist Paracelsus. She reveals Plath’s early knowledge of Hermeticism, how she devoured books on the occult throughout her life, and how, since adolescence, Plath regularly wrote of premonitory dreams. Examining Plath’s tumultuous marriage with poet Ted Hughes, she looks at their explorations in the supernatural and Hughes’s mentoring of Plath in meditation, crystal-gazing, astrology, Qabalah, Tarot, automatic writing, magical workings, and use of the Ouija board. She also reveals how, at the end of her marriage, Plath used her husband’s hair and fingernails in rituals. Looking ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Elizabeth Gaskell''s only historical novel, Sylvia''s Lovers, is set in 1790 in the seaside town of Monkshaven (Whitby) where press-gangs wreak havoc by seizing young men for service in the Napoleonic wars. One of their victims is whaling harpooner, Charley Kinraid, whose charm and vivacity have captured the heart of Sylvia Robson. But Sylvia''s devoted cousin, Philip Hepburn, hopes to marry her himself and, in order to win her, deliberately withholds crucial information - with devastating consequences. With its themes of suffering, unrequited love, and the clash between desire and duty, Sylvia''s Lovers is one of the most powerfully moving of all Gaskell''s novels, reputedly described by its author as ''the saddest story I ever wrote''.

'There's no mistaking the writing of Sylvia Patterson' Sunday TimesHow does the big stuff in life truly change us? In late 2019, Sylvia Patterson was a celebrated pop journalist, still merrily writing about the musical greats. But with the diagnosis of a life-threatening disease, a global pandemic and the collapse of her industry, life was about to take a drastic turn. It was a misadventure that would teach her many things. The power of friendship, the shock of mortality and what happens when love is tested. How a walk in the park, a spontaneous dance and a TV hero can save your life. How your perspective can shift on everything, from work, family and music, to what truly makes you happy. And what really happens when your body, never mind your kitchen, falls apart. The follow-up to the Costa-shortlisted I'm Not with the Band, this is Sylvia's unflinching, poignant and gallows-funny odyssey through the mid-life trials we all face, as she tries to answer the big question: would it all change her, or would she stay that same old girl?

Along with her mother Emmeline, and her sister Christabel, Sylvia Pankhurst was one of the leading women’s suffrage activists in early twentieth-century England, working with the militant Women’s Social and Political Union. Unlike her family, however, who looked to parliament and spoke to elite and middle-class women’s concerns, Sylvia consistently looked to working women and the labour movement as central to her feminist politics.In this illuminating political biography, feminist historian Barbara Winslow recovers Sylvia Pankhurst’s life and work for a new generation of socialists and feminists. From Pankhurst’s organizing with immigrant and working women in London’s East End to her revolutionary communism and growing internationalism and anti-fascism, Winslow gives us the story of a brilliantly inspiring unorthodox feminist and unorthodox socialist.With a preface from internationally recognized socialist feminist historian and activist, Sheila Rowbotham.

"This is a much needed book on the Weight Aids which should be close to the heart of all who teach and coach riding." - Patrick Print OBE FBHSThis book is designed for all riders from the very novice to the most advanced. Sylvia Loch teaches through illustrations and photos how each tiny shift of the riders weight will affect the horses balance.The weight aids are generally taught only to higher level students especially those learning the more advanced skills. Yet, by including them from the beginning, novice riders will develop a much greater understanding of their own bodies and abilities and those of the horse from day one.In Sylvia''s words...: The time has surely come to show all riders how their body-weight impacts on the horse for good or bad. Feel and balance should govern the whole ethos of equitation. In this book, I show through pictures how the giving of the aids can transform the horse in each and every movement so that our communication with this wonderful animal takes us to new levels of understanding and empathy.
