In a world of globetrotting explorers and record-breaking journeys - of which he has been part himself - Johno Ellison decided to return to his roots and walk the entire length of the River Wharfe, the Yorkshire waterway beside which he grew up. In his new book for Bradt, Walking the Wharfe, Ellison retraces the steps of Victorian author Edmund Bogg to investigate how the riverscape and its communities have evolved during the intervening 120 years. While wild camping, meeting modern-day Vikings, wartime ghosts and the fearless Dales Dippers , and learning how not to deal with a herd of over-inquisitive cows, Ellison encounters a microcosm of English history and culture. Starting in the Vale of York, Ellison walks upstream to explore the region s Viking and Roman heritage, as well as more modern developments such as Tadcaster s disastrous bridge collapse in 2015. He examines a profusion of Victorian spa towns, considers the impact of the Industrial Revolution and enjoys rare wildlife such as red kites and an otter, creatures that have returned to the area following successful conservation initiatives.Traversing the Yorkshire Dales National Park, including along the Dales Way long-distance footpath, Ellison is first bewitched by local legends of giants, trolls and witches, then seduced into wild swimming in a chilly river - albeit not the Strid, a section of the Wharfe notorious worldwide for reportedly drowning everyone who has ever tumbled into it - before seeking refuge in a candlelit pub during a storm that caused a power blackout. During his ascent, Ellison learns from a family who have farmed the Yorkshire hills for five generations before reaching the Wharfe s trickling source amid a vast boggy moorland.This enchanting travelogue is a must-read for anyone interested in nature, the great outdoors , or English history and culture. Residents and fans of Yorkshire will love it, as will anyone who has hiked the Dales Way. Above all, by combining personal connections with journalistic curiosity and a nose for a story, Walking the Wharfe affirms that even lesser-known parts of the small island of Britain can hold their own against renowned tourist sites the world over.

Vše nové, svěží a odlišné je ve vypravěčském řemesle velevzácné, avšak Harlan Ellison jako rozený vypravěč vytvářel povídky odvážné, nebojácné a pokaždé znovu překvapivé; svou prózu dováděl na pokraj drzosti a podivnosti, psal zkušeně i s neomalenou přízemností - a vždy se postaral, aby jeho slova i v našem slovy předávkovaném světě byla až nečekaně plná života a vášně. Byl jako vulkán chrlící žhavou lávu v podobě příběhů. Od převratných padesátých a šedesátých let dvacátého století, kdy svět nacházel svou novou dynamickou identitu, až po přítomnost plnou klišé a povrchnosti, psal stále elegantně a neotřele, přesto vždy živelně, a stále byl s to dostat se čtenářům pod kůži. A teď je to konečně tady. Vrchol vulkánu: Oceněné povídky Harlana Ellisona je právě ta sbírka, ve kterou jsme dlouho jen doufali. Třiadvacet nejlepších povídek, které od první do poslední vyhrály významné ceny, vycházejí v jediném svazku a spolu s tím se v českém překladu konečně šířeji představuje vskutku neobyčejný prozaik. Jsou to texty plné světla a ohně od autora, jenž měl vždy co říct a přesně věděl jak. V jednom svazku přichází to nejlepší od jednoho z nejvýraznějších hlasů nejen fantastického žánru. Povídky vhodné jak pro nováčky, tak i pro dlouholeté fanoušky science fiction - ba i pro protřelé profesionály; všem připomenou, jakých kvalit může literatura dosáhnout. V americké literatuře nikdo takový nebyl - a ani nebude. Zuřivý, zábavný, výmluvný, obrovsky nadaný. Pokud existuje nějaký posmrtný život, Harlan teď všechno bere hákem i tam. Stephen King

And explains how he came to be living underground . . .

A compilation of spiritual messages and writings received by a well-respected medium, Sheila Margarets, together with the comments and interpretations of the author. These messages pull no punches in addressing issues such as the destruction of the Earth Plane for material gain, the destruction of mother nature and the broad animal kingdom, the massacre of humans and shocking behaviour of those humans who have no respect for all forms of life. The messages and writings prove that life is eternal and that we cannot erase the past as nothing is ever lost. All experiences, good and bad, are part of Spiritual Progression, whether in the body or in the World of Spirit, whether in past lifetimes, this incarnation, or future reincarnations. They also show nothing is ever missed by the universe, that we can⠙t ⠜get away with murder⠝, we are accountable for all our thoughts, words, and deeds and that we are all part of one source and thus connected. These are incredibly enlightening messages received by a very humbly lady from Advanced Ancient Souls such as Jesus, his mother Mary, Isaiah, Mary Magdelene, and Sheila⠙s many guides, Silver Birch, Pope John Paul II and John Lennon.

When Jude Doyle began his transition in the summer of 2020, he had a very public career as a feminist-winning awards from women s organizations, writing for women s magazines, publishing books on women s issues. Then, after a decade in the movement, he had to walk out in front of the public and tell them he had never been a woman at all. Doyle offers a seldom-heard and much-needed transmasculine perspective on feminist subjects, drawing together strands of intersectional feminist theory and queer and trans politics to show that all their struggles are the same struggle: The fight for bodily sovereignty against a patriarchy that is always eager to hollow us out and use us to further its own agenda. DILF offers a strong rebuke to trans-exclusionary feminisms that seek to drive a wedge between gender-marginalized communities. Using interviews, critical analysis, and Doyle s own personal experience, DILF proves that feminism is a vital and necessary tool for understanding the politics of the body, whoever you are.

Trojjazyčná publikace (česky, anglicky, německy) - Chladné zbraně z období Habsburské monarchie - představuje v současné době jeden z početně nejrozsáhlejších a sběratelsky nejvyhledávanějších tematických souborů. V depozitářích muzeí, v soukromých sbírkách i v nabídce aukčních síní a obchodů se starožitnostmi se nacházejí desítky tisíc kusů zbraní, které se od sebe liší někdy menšími, někdy většími rozdíly. Sběratel, ať už profesionál nebo amatér, se často dostane do situace, kdy si není zcela jist správností vlastního určení původu zbraně nebo její datace. Jako vhodnou pomůcku pro tyto případy předkládáme publikaci, která v šesti kapitolách přináší bezmála 300 sbírkových předmětů, zahrnujících všechny základní typy a vzory šavlí, palašů, kordů, tesáků, bodáků a dřevcových zbraní. Každému předmětu je věnována podrobná ilustrace, rozsáhlý technický popis a přehledná tabulka základních srovnávacích rozměrů. Záměrně je tato práce věnována především vzorovým zbraním, chronologicky řazeným tak, jak byly postupně zaváděny do výzbroje ozbrojených složek habsburské monarchie.

Elektronická kniha - ze série Yorrân, autor Jan Dobšenský, 317 stran, anglicky EN: He, who never finds the courage to leave the native home, never finds who he truly is. This applied in the past and will apply in the future, and thus it‘s no surprise that it applies to the world created by the author of the Yorran saga, too. Only the obstacles and trials which the heroes of this fantasy story need to face are different from ours. There are people who set out on such journey voluntarily, and some will be forced to take it by the ruthless power of their destiny. And the story of our hero isn‘t any different. Abarhil is not a boy anymore. The question, however, is whether he really is the man who can face up to the trials which the fate lays before him. The author of the saga has created a complex world which he populated with unknown nations and curious animals. He created a history of the world in which he planted the seeds of events which just now begin to...

Prague in the early twentieth century was the city of cubists, surrealists, and the Good Soldier vejk. This book takes a new approach to interwar Prague by identifying religion as an integral part of the city s cultural history. As Prague emerged as a modern city and the Czech nation gained independence, Catholics, Protestants, and those who imagined a non-sectarian religion debated questions of faith and morality. Contrary to the conventional view of modern Czech elites as atheistic, Berglund shows how they were deeply concerned with the place of religion in modern life. Based upon a wide array of sources, the monograph explores the linkages between politics, theology, and architecture in the building of new symbols and a civil religion for the first Czechoslovak republic (1918-1938). Berglund views the contest of the sacred and secular in Prague within the broader context of religious change in twentieth-century Europe. His book lays a foundation for understanding both Czech culture of the interwar period as well as the nation s and Europe s religious history in the modern age. The author takes an approach that is both interdisciplinary and biographical by focusing on important figures in the politics and culture of interwar Prague, including Tomá Masaryk, the philosopher who became Czechoslovakia s first president; his daughter Alice, founding director of the Czechoslovak Red Cross; and Joze Plecnik, the Slovenian architect who directed the renovations of Prague Castle and designed one of the city s most renowned churches. This study of the beliefs and doubts held by these and other figures shows the transition from a (mostly) Catholic tradition to a new religious conception that was modern, humanistic, and detached from any institution much like the religious beliefs held by many Europeans today.

I tu nejprobádanější krajinu můžeme objevovat stále znovu a znovu. Naši krajinu domova máme krásně vymezenou zvláštní kruhovou hradbou pohraničních hor. Kotlina Čech, sevřená tímto prstencem, je do sebe uzavřeným světem, zatímco široké úvaly Moravy se naopak otevírají jako náruč. Člověk se v té krajině učil žít a hospodařit tak dlouho, až z ní vytvořil prostor, kterému sám pro sebe začal říkat Zahrádka. Krajinu domova vnímáme jako zemský ráj, o kterém se zpívá v naší hymně. Najdeme zde mnoho koutů, kde jedinečné kouzlo a nezaměnitelná poetika Zahrádky ožívá i dnes. V této knize se spolu s námi projdete krajinou Hustopečské pahorkatiny a Pálavy, Železných hor a Žďárských vrchů, Bílých Karpat, Jizerských hor a Krkonoš, Nízkého a Hrubého Jeseníku. Podíváme se i na místa, v nichž se otiskly vzpomínky na sopky – do Českého středohoří a Slavkovského lesa. Kniha navazuje na stejnojmenný úspěšný televizní pořad, který získal prestižní hlavní cenu Tourfilmu, mezinárodního festivalu filmů s cestovatelskou tematikou. Úchvatné fotografie doprovázejí texty vyzdvihující pozoruhodnosti české a moravské krajiny a dokreslují je působivé ilustrace. Vychází v trojjazyčné verzi – česky, anglicky a německy. Fotografie Michal Matuška a Pavel Vacek Ilustrace František Žáček ------------------------------ Even the most explored land can be rediscovered again and again. Our homeland is beautifully delimited by a special rounded wall of borderline mountains. The Czech Basin, enclosed in this mountainous ring, is a world wrapped up in itself, while the wide valleys of Moravia seem to open their arms. The man has been learning to live in this land and manage it for such a long time that he created a space the man himself named a small garden. We perceive our homeland as the Paradise on Earth, the one that is sung about in the national anthem. There are many places left in our country where its unique magic and its unmistakable poetics are still alive to these days. In this book you can join us for a walk in the country of the Hustopeče Downs and the Pálava, the Iron Mountains and the Žďár Heights, the White Carpathians, the Jizera Mountains and the Giant Mountains, the Nízký and the Hrubý Jeseník. We can also visit places where memories of volcanoes left their prints – the Central Bohemian Highlands and the Emperor’s Forest. The book is a follow-up to a successful TV series with the same name, which achieved the prestigious main prize of Tourfilm, an international festival of travel movies. Breath-taking photographs are accompanied by texts emphasizing Czech and Moravian regions and supplemented with impressive illustrations. Photos Michal Matuška end Pavel Vacek Illustrations František Žáček ----------------------------- Auch die meisterforschte Landschaft können wir immer wieder neu entdecken. Unsere Heimatlandschaft ist schön eingegrenzt durch den besonderen ringförmigen Wall der Grenzgebirge. Der von diesem Ring umschlossene böhmische Kessel ist eine in sich abgeschlossene Welt, während sich dagegen die weiten Täler Mährens öffnen wie ausgebreitete Arme. Der Mensch hat so lange in dieser Landschaft leben und wirtschaften gelernt, bis er einen Raum aus ihr gemacht hat, den er für sich selbst Garten zu nennen begann. Wir nehmen unsere Heimatlandschaft wie das Paradies auf Erden wahr, von dem in unserer Hymne gesungen wird. Es gibt in unserer Landschaft noch viele Ecken, wo ihr einzigartiger Zauber und unverwechselbare Poesie lebendig bis heute ist. In diesem Buch werden Sie mit uns durch die Landschaften des Auspitzer Hügellands und der Pollauer Berge, des Eisengebirges und der Saarer Berge, der Weißen Karpaten, des Isergebirges und des Riesengebirges, des Mährischen Gesenkes und des Hohen Gesenkes wandern. Wir werden auch Orte sehen, die Erinnerungen an Vulkane bergen: das Böhmische Mittelgebirge und den Kaiserwald. Das Buch knüpft an die gleichnamige erfolgreiche Fernsehsendung an, die den renommierten Hauptpreis von Tourfilm, dem internationalen Reisefilmfestival gewonnen hat. Die Texte, die das Bemerkenswerteste der böhmischen und mährischen Landschaften hervorheben, sind begleitet von hinreißende Fotos und eindrucksvollen Illustrationen.

A brand new book from the Sunday Times and internationally bestselling author of The Silk Roads Masterly mapping out of a new world order – Evening Standard Revised and updated edition The New Silk Roads takes a fresh look at the relationships being formed along the length and breadth of the ancient trade routes today. The world is changing dramatically and in an age of Brexit and Trump, the themes of isolation and fragmentation permeating the western world stand in sharp contrast to events along the Silk Roads, where ties are being strengthened and mutual cooperation established. This prescient contemporary history provides a timely reminder that we live in a world that is profoundly interconnected. Following the Silk Roads eastwards from Europe through to China, by way of Russia and the Middle East, Peter Frankopan assesses the global reverberations of continual shifts in the centre of power – all too often absent from headlines in the west. The New Silk Roads asks us to re-examine who we are and where we stand in the world, illuminating the themes on which all our lives and livelihoods depend. The Silk Roads, a major reassessment of world history, has sold over 1 million copies worldwide.
