When fiddler and farmer Henry Smith and his wife Harriet moved from Michigan to southwest Missouri in 1858, they considered themselves part of a Yankee cultural community whose taste and aspirations were shaped by northern publications and represented by the new Republican Party. By 1861 Vernon County Court Judge Henry Smith no longer called himself a Yankee or Republican, but he hoped his isolated prairie community would remain in the Union. Montevallo’s location at the intersection of roads from Boonville and Lexington south to Carthage and from Springfield to Fort Scott, Kansas, placed the Smith family’s log house in the path of troops fighting to establish Confederate or Union control of Missouri. The Smiths saw neighbor turn against neighbor as they played reluctant host to the succession of Union troops, Confederate soldiers, bushwhackers, and jayhawkers who swarmed past their homestead.

Celý ten neveselý životní příběh Marilyn se začal psát krátce po jejím narození.

Not only a picaresque hero himself, he was also a scholar of the adventuring rogue in literature and art, witnessing the rise of America''s new liberalism, civil rights, the space race, the New York critics, and was Marilyn Monroe''s constant companion.Maf was very much a real historical figure, with his license and photographs sold at auction along with Marilyn''s other person affects. Through his eyes we get an insight into the life of Monroe herself, and a fascinating new angle on the most talked-about decade of recent times.

“This book is really two books. It is a biography, and it is also a pictorial retrospective of an actress whose greatest love affair was conceivably with the camera,” wrote Norman Mailer in his 1973 biography, Marilyn. TASCHEN has paired Mailer’s original text with Bert Stern’s photographs from the legendary Last Sitting—widely considered the most intimate photographs of Monroe ever taken—to create a fitting tribute to the woman who, at the time of her death in 1962, was the world’s most famous, a symbol of glamour and eroticism for an entire generation. But though she was feted and adored by her public, her private life was that of a little girl lost, desperate to find love and security. Mailer’s Marilyn is beautiful, tragic, and complex. As Mailer reflects upon her life—from her bleak childhood through to the mysterious circumstances of her death—she emerges as a symbol of the bizarre decade during which she reigned as Hollywood’s greatest female star. This book, conceived by Lawrence Schiller, Mailer’s collaborator on five works, combines the author’s masterful text with Stern’s penetrating images of the 36-year-old Marilyn. Photographed forVoguemagazine over three days at the Bel-Air Hotel, Marilyn had never allowed such unfettered access, nor ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Poslední měsíce života slavné hvězdy. Na veřejnost se poprvé dostávají záznamy z deníku, který si vedla. Konec života Marilyn Monroe se přiblížil ve chvíli, kdy slunce zalilo kapotu luxusního Lincolnu Continental, který vyjel z letiště v Los Angeles a zamířil přes Santa Moniku dál na sever. Důležití muži v jejím životě, ona klika báječných a slavných mužů, kdysi jí tak bezmezně oddaných a zcela okouzlených, zatím prošla zlověstnou proměnou. Když naleštěný lincoln zpomalil, aby zabočil doprava na bulvár San Vicente a pak do centra Los Angeles, byl ten nejvyděšenější z Marilyniných milenců už skálopevně přesvědčen o nutnosti provést plán, který situaci vyřeší. To, co uslyšel v prvních minutách krátké cesty, ho přesvědčilo, že jediným řešením je Marilynina smrt. Její neochota mlčet byla pro jednoho z nejmocnějších mužů světa mimořádně nebezpečná. Marilyn už pro něj nepředstavovala mámivý sen ani opojnou fantazii, ale jen noční můru. V sobotu 4. srpna 1962 odpoledne, kdy nad pobřežím svištěl "ďábelský vichr" z kalifornských hor, pohlíželi jistí odhodlaní jedinci na nejzářivější hollywoodskou hvězdu a nejkrásnější ženu světa, novodobou Helenu Trójskou, se zlověstným odporem… "Hollywood je místo, kde vám dají tisíce dolarů za jednu pusu, a padesát centů za vaši duši." Marilyn Monroe, 1958.

Světoznámý psychiatr a autor Irvin Yalom věnoval svou kariéru práci s lidmi, kteří se potýkají s úzkostí a zármutkem. Sám ovšem úzkosti a zármutku začal čelit až ve chvíli, kdy jeho milovaná žena Marilyn onemocněla rakovinou. V této knize se potkávají cesty obou z nich. Marilyn odešla v pokoji, Irvin se učí žít bez ní.V prvních měsících po diagnóze společně psali o tom, jaké to je, čelit vlastní smrtelnosti a zvládat to, že ztratí někoho, koho milujeme. Jejich společný život byl skutečně požehnaný, obklopený milující rodinou a nádhernou přírodou Palo Alta, naplněný společnou láskou, ale stejně jako my museli čelit nevyhnutelnému v podobě smrti. Společně psali o intimitě, lásce a zármutku. Když Marilyn odešla, Irvin i jejich děti společně oslavili její život a v závěrečné části knihy Irvin velmi upřímně píše o věcech, které přišly s čerstvým vdovstvím. O touze po intimitě, která se s Marilyiným odchodem vytratila, o tom, jaké to je být po tak dlouhých společných letech sám, o vděčnosti za to, co spolu se svou milovanou ženou prožil. O tom, že smysl života není v našich úspěších, v naplnění někdy nereálných představ, ale v hlubokých vztazích, které společně pěstujeme.

Monografie v anglickém jazyce je poctou Marilyn u příležitosti 50. výročí její smrti. Je plodem pečlivého výzkumu editorů Stefanie Ricci a Sergia Risaliti i Museo Salvatore Ferragamo. Představují se v ní fotografie, oděvy, obuv a některé osobní věci této filmové hvězdy spolu s důležitými dokumenty odhalujícími její složitou osobnost. Pozoruhodná série snímků Marilyn v každodenním životě je porovnána se silou archetypu a trvající legendou, jejíž velikost nejspíše spočívá v ambivalentní povaze této ženské ikony a postavy popkultury. Na základě studia pramenů a bulvárních informací se autoři pokusili interpretovat pozoruhodnou genezi některých proslulých uměleckých fotografií (Beaton, Stern, Barris, Greene), které Marilyn zachycují v "klasických" pózách. Současně tyto portréty srovnávají s některými nejslavnějšími uměleckými díly minulosti, v nichž lze najít tytéž pózy a výrazy.

Po první knize uznávané trilogie Carol Priceové Border kolie pod lupou: Povaha, která přinesla neotřelé poznatky o tom, jak funguje mozek border kolií, se autorka nyní zaměřila na to, jak se border kolie učí. Co by měla obsahovat výchova vašeho psa? Jak cvičit plemeno, které je v některých ohledech mimořádně inteligentní a citlivé, ale v jiných dokáže být nesmírně tvrdohlavé a náročné na zvládnutí? Carol zpochybňuje mýtus o tom, že border kolie se "snadno cvičí", a předkládá cvičení a lekce, které jsou pro ně zásadní. Vysvětluje nejčastější důvody nezdarů při výcviku a doporučuje, jak je řešit. Zdůrazňuje také, jak nesmírně důležité je, abyste výcvik své vlastní borderky přizpůsobili na míru její individuální osobnosti, protože jen tak získáte ty nejlepší výsledky. Je přesvědčena, že při výcviku border kolií se až příliš často klade nadměrný důraz na stanovené úkoly a aspekty výkonu a přitom se zanedbává potřeba širší a hlubší sociální výchovy. K němu patří zvládnutí základních životních dovedností, které borderky potřebují, pokud mají žít ve světě jako šťastní a dobře přizpůsobení jedinci. Už jen proto je tato kniha zásadní pro každého majitele border kolie, který chce skutečně porozumět svému psovi a vychovat z něj příjemného společníka pro život.

Anyone who wishes to understand why Brexit is so intractable should read this book. I can think of several MPs who ought to.'' The TimesFor the past two decades, you could cross the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic half a dozen times without noticing or, indeed, turning off the road you were travelling. It cuts through fields, winds back-and-forth across roads, and wends from Carlingford Lough to Lough Foyle. It is frictionless - a feat sealed by the Good Friday Agreement. Before that, watchtowers loomed over border communities, military checkpoints dotted the roads, and smugglers slipped between jurisdictions. This is a past that most are happy to have left behind but might it also be the future?The border has been a topic of dispute for over a century, first in Dublin, Belfast and Westminster and, post Brexit referendum, in Brussels. Yet, despite the passions of Nationalists and Unionists in the North, neither found deep wells of support in the countries they identified with politically. British political leaders were often ignorant of the conflict''s complexities, rarely visited the border, and privately disliked their erstwhile unionist allies. Southern leaders'' anti-partition statements masked relative indifference and unofficial cooperation with British security ... Unknown localization key: "more"

This book attempts to provide a comprehensive understanding of the circumstances which have shaped India’s approach towards its international borders and the framework it has developed to better manage its borders. The book argues that persistence of various cross-border threats and challenges and an absence of robust intra-regional trade among its neighbouring countries forced India to employ a security-centric and unilateral approach to border management with emphasis on hardening the borders to cross-border trade and travel and keeping the border areas underdeveloped to act as a buffer against external conventional threats. Besides discussing the threats and challenges that India faces along the borders, the book aims to develop an understanding of India’s border management practices by analysing various programmes and initiatives such as the raising of border guarding forces; building of physical and electronic fences; the establishment of modern facilities for smoothening legitimate cross-border travel; the development of the border areas through special programmes; and increasing trade and connectivity as well as other cooperative bilateral mechanisms.Print edition not for sale in South Asia (India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Bhutan).

The notion of a living world is one of humanity’s oldest beliefs. Though once scorned by many scientists, the concept of Earth as a vast interconnected living system has gained acceptance in recent decades.Life not only adapts to its surroundings – it also shapes them in dramatic and enduring ways. Over billions of years, life transformed a lump of orbiting rock into our cosmic oasis, breathing oxygen into the atmosphere, concocting the modern oceans, and turning rock into fertile soil. Life is intertwined with Earth’s capacity to regulate its climate and maintain balance.Through compelling narrative, evocative descriptions and lucid explanations, Ferris Jabr shows us how Earth became the world we’ve known, how it is rapidly becoming a very different world, and how we will determine what kind of Earth our descendants inherit for millennia to come.
