#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the co-author of Mad Honey comes an “inspiring” (Elle) novel about two women, centuries apart—one of whom is the real author of Shakespeare’s plays—who are both forced to hide behind another name. “You’ll fall in love with Emilia Bassano, the unforgettable heroine based on a real woman that Picoult brings vividly to life in her brilliantly researched new novel.”—Kristin Hannah, author of The WomenYoung playwright Melina Green has just written a new work inspired by the life of her Elizabethan ancestor Emilia Bassano. But seeing it performed is unlikely, in a theater world where the playing field isn’t level for women. As Melina wonders if she dares risk failure again, her best friend takes the decision out of her hands and submits the play to a festival under a male pseudonym.In 1581, young Emilia Bassano is a ward of English aristocrats. Her lessons on languages, history, and writing have endowed her with a sharp wit and a gift for storytelling, but like most women of her day, she is allowed no voice of her own. Forced to become a mistress to the Lord Chamberlain, who oversees all theatre productions in England, Emilia sees firsthand how the words of playwrights can move an audience. She begins to form a plan to secretly bring a play of her own to the stage—by paying an actor named William Shakespeare to front her work.Told in intertwining timelines, By Any Other Name, a sweeping tale of ambition, courage, and desire centers two women who are determined to create something beautiful despite the prejudices they face. Should a writer do whatever it takes to see her story live on . . . no matter the cost? This remarkable novel, rooted in primary historical sources, ensures the name Emilia Bassano will no longer be forgotten.

“A high-stakes, high-drama mystery…led by a plucky, determined hero I would have followed anywhere…[A] romantic, delightful romp!” —Mackenzi Lee, New York Times bestselling author of A Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue A down-on-his-luck actor and an English lord reluctantly team up to solve the murder of Christopher Marlowe in this Shakespearean-era “quippy, heart-wrenching debut…ideal for fans of Mackenzi Lee and F.T. Lukens” (Kirkus Reviews).London, 1593. Sixteen-year-old Will Hughes is busy working on Shakespeare’s stage, stuffing his corsets with straw and pretending to be someone else. Offstage, he’s playing a part, too. The son of traitors, Will is desperate to keep his identity secret—or risk being killed in the bloody queen’s imperial schemes. All he wants is to lay low until he earns enough coin to return to his family. But when his mentor, the famous playwright Christopher Marlowe, is murdered under mysterious circumstances, Will’s plans are hopelessly dashed. What’s worse, Marlowe was a spy for the queen, tasked with stalking a killer rumored to be part of an elusive order of assassins, and his secrets and untimely death have put Will under a harsh spotlight. Then, when Will unwittingly foils an attempt on the queen’s life, she names him her next spymaster. Now, to avoid uncomfortable questions, prison, or an even more terrible fate, Will reluctantly starts his new career, which—yes—will secure him the resources to help his family…but at what cost? Adding insult to injury is the young Lord James Bloomsbury, Will’s new comrade in arms, whose entitled demeanor and unfairly handsome looks get under Will’s skin immediately. Together, the two hunt the cunning assassin, defend the queen’s life, and pray to keep their own...all while an unexpected connection blossoms between them.

Chinese and Any Other Asian - Anna Sulan Masing

Chinese or Any other Asian . The boxes that people of vastly varied East and South East Asian heritage have to tick when declaring their ethnicity on many forms in the UK.This represents a shameful sweeping together of a diverse heritage and experience. East and South East Asian people have lived and worked in the UK for centuries, fought for the British Army in both world wars, have influenced British culture through food, writing, music and art in a multitude of ways. And yet this influence is often overlooked.People of ESEA heritage experience unique forms of racism. Asian food is mocked as unhealthy and Asian restaurants as dirty. ESEA women are exoticised and sexualised, and assumed to be the nanny of their mixed-race children. The community was scapegoated for the Covid-19 pandemic.Anna Sulan Masing addresses these issues in a comprehensive way. She explores what it means to be East and South East Asian in Britain today, and celebrates the varied experiences that make up ESEA identity. Powerful, moving and illuminating, this will be a must-read for anyone interested in the make-up of our multicultural society. Vital reading, but also vital in the truest sense - real, alive, full of humanity, interrogatory, empathetic, energising Claire Kohda, author of WOMAN, EATING

The book draws on cultural production concerning the years of lead â ”a period of authoritarianism and political violence between Morocco s independence in 1956 and the death of King Hassan II in 1999â ”to examine the transformative roles memory and trauma play in reconstructing stories of three historically marginalized groups in Moroccan history: Berbers/Imazighen, Jews, and political prisoners. The book shows how Moroccan cultural production has become an other-archive: a set of textual, sonic, embodied, and visual sites that recover real or reimagined voices of these formerly suppressed and silenced constituencies of Moroccan society. Combining theoretical discussions with close reading of literary works, the book reenvisions both archives and the nation in postcolonial Morocco. By producing other-archives, Moroccan cultural creators transform the losses state violence inflicted on society during the years of lead into a source of civic engagement and historiographical agency, enabling the writing of histories about those Moroccans who have been excluded from official documentation and state-sanctioned histories. The book is multilingual and interdisciplinary, examining primary sources in Amazigh/Berber, Arabic, Darija, and French, and drawing on memory studies, literary theory, archival studies, anthropology, and historiography. In addition to showing how other-archives are created and operate, El Guabli elaborates how language, gender, class, race, and geographical distribution are co-constitutive of a historical and archival unsilencing that is foundational to citizenship in Morocco today.

The House of Bernarda Alba and Other Plays - Federico García Lorca

In The House of Bernarda Alba, a tyrannical matriarch rules over her house and five daughters, cruelly crushing their hopes and needs. The other plays here also portray female characters whose desires are tragically and violently frustrated: a womanâ ™s longing for a child in Yerma, and a brideâ ™s yearning for her lover in Blood Wedding. All appeal for freedom and sexual and social equality, and are also passionate defences of the imagination: in Christopher Maurerâ ™s words, â ˜poetic drama unsurpassed by any writer of our timeâ ™.

Novel and Other Poems - George Seferis

Often compared during his lifetime to T.S. Eliot, whose work he translated and introduced to Greece, George Seferis is noted for his spare, laconic, dense and allusive verse in the Modernist idiom of the first half of the twentieth century. At once intensely Greek and a cosmopolitan of his time (he was a career-diplomat as well as a poet), Seferis better than any other writer expresses the dilemma experienced by his countrymen then and now: how to be at once Greek and modern. The translations that make up this volume are the fruit of more than forty years, and many are published here for the first time.

A Nation Unmade By War - Tom Engelhardt

As veteran author Tom Engelhardt argues, despite having a more massive, technologically advanced, and better-funded military than any other power on the planet, in the last decade and a half of constant war across the Greater Middle East and parts of Africa, the United States has won nothing. Its unending wars, in fact, have only contributed to a world growing more chaotic by the second.From its founding, the United States has been a nation made by wars. Through incisive analysis and characteristic wit, Engelhardt ponders whether in this century, its citizenry and government will be unmade by them.Tom Engelhardt created and runs the TomDispatch.com website, a project of the Nation Institute, where he is a fellow. He is the author of The United States of Fear, Shadow Government, and The American Way of War all published by Haymarket Books; a highly praised history of American triumphalism in the cold war, The End of Victory Culture, and a novel, The Last Days of Publishing.

Woody Allen: Film By Film

The quintessential guide to Woody Allen s lifetime of work, Woody Allen: Film by Film examines each of Allen s movies, from when he vented his first neuroses in 1965 with What s New Pussycat, by way of Oscar winner Annie Hall, Hannah and Her Sisters, all the way to his latest works of Wonder Wheel and Cafe Society. Woody Allen has enjoyed a career unlike any other writer or director in Hollywood. The impact of his comedy and his psychoanalysis of the modern world have been hugely influential and had a profound effect on popular culture ever since. Filled with key images of his films, as well as lots of behind-the-scenes content.As Woody said about himself: The two biggest myths about me are that I m an intellectual, because I wear these glasses, and that I m an artist because my films lose money. As self-critical as ever - and with a hotly tipped Oscar material new film scheduled for the end of 2017 - Woody Allen remains a force to be reckoned with.

Poverty, by America - Desmond Matthew

The United States is the richest country on earth, yet has more poverty than any other advanced democracy. One in seven Americans live below the poverty line, a line which hasn t shifted over the last fifty years, despite the efforts of successive governments. Why is there so much scarcity in this land of dollars? In Poverty, by America, acclaimed sociologist Matthew Desmond examines American poverty today and the stories we tell ourselves about it.Spanning social isolation, mass incarceration, the housing crisis, domestic violence, crack and opioid epidemics, welfare cuts and more, Desmond argues that poverty does not result from a lack of resources or good policy ideas. We already know how to eliminate it. The hard part is getting more of us to care. To do so, we need a new story. As things stand, liberals explain poverty through insurmountable structural issues, whereas conservatives highlight personal failings and poor life choices. Both abdicate responsibility, and ignore the reality that the advantages of the rich only come at the expense of the poor. It is time better-paid citizens put themselves back in the narrative, recognizing that the depth and expanse of poverty in any nation reflects our failure to look out for one another. Poverty must ultimately be met by community: all this suffering and want is our doing, and we can undo it.

Tyto chaluhy jsou plné živin a jsou bohatým zdrojem&nbsp;jódu,&nbsp;který je nezbytný pro správnou&nbsp;funkci štítné žlázy. Prospívá energetickému metabolismu pro podporu hubnutí (zrychluje metabolismus) a podílí se i na zdraví zubů – efektivně redukuje zubní plak. Přispívá taktéž k normální činnosti&nbsp;nervové soustavy. Spirulina podporuje přirozenou obranyschopnost. Doporučujeme pro normální hladinu cukru v krvi. Jedná se o přírodní antioxidant. Navozuje vitalitu a tonus. Používá se ke kontrole tělesné hmotnosti za současného udržení svalové hmoty. Spirulina obsahuje vysoké množství chlorofylu, proto je významná k tlumení zápachu z úst.</p> <p><strong>Aktivní látky: </strong></p> <table class="tabulka"> <tbody> <tr> <td> <p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> </td> <td> <p style="text-align: center;"><strong>1 tobolka</strong></p> </td> <td> <p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Denní dávka<br /> 1 tobolka</strong></p> </td> <td> <p style="text-align: center;"><strong>% RHP<br /> Referenční hodnota příjmu</strong></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p><strong>Spirulina prášek</strong></p> </td> <td> <p style="text-align: center;">300 mg</p> </td> <td> <p style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: center;">300</span>&nbsp;mg</p> </td> <td> <p style="text-align: center;">Není stanoveno</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p><strong>Laminaria japonica stand. extrakt z&nbsp;řasy</strong></p> </td> <td style="text-align: center;">30 mg</td> <td style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: center;">30 mg</span></td> <td style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: center;">Není stanoveno</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong>z toho jód 1 %</strong></td> <td style="text-align: center;">300 μg</td> <td style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;<span style="text-align: center;">300&nbsp;</span><span style="text-align: center;">μg</span></td> <td style="text-align: center;">200 % RHP</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p><strong>Složení:</strong> Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) prášek, Laminaria japonica (Laminaria japonica) standardizovaný extrakt z&nbsp;řasy (jód 1 %), mikrokrystalická celulóza (plnidlo), stearan hořečnatý (plnidlo), vegetariánská kapsle</p> <p><strong>Doporučené dávkování: </strong>1 tobolka 1 x denně.</p> <p><strong>Skladování: </strong>Uchovávejte v&nbsp;suchu při pokojové teplotě.
