'Suzuki's works on Zen Buddhism are among the best contributions to the knowledge of living Buddhism' Carl JungEssays in Zen Buddhism was the first book to fully introduce Zen in the West. In it, Dr D.T. Suzuki outlines the origins of Zen as a unique Chinese interpretation of the Doctrine of Enlightenment with the aim of attaining Satori ('Sudden Enlightenment').He describes how Satori can be achieved and the methods that can bring it about - but always stresses that Zen has to be a way of life that can cope with the demands and frustrations of everyday life. Exploring the history of Buddhism, the daily life of a Zen monk and the path to enlightenment, Essays in Zen Buddhism offers an understanding of Zen not as a religion but as a way of perceiving, acting and being. It is both a classic introduction to Zen and a foundation for living a fulfilled life.After reaching enlightenment at the age of 27, Dr Suzuki spent the next 65 years writing about Buddhism and teaching in universities in Europe and the US. Widely regarded as the twentieth century's leading authority on Buddhism, he was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1963.

Zen Buddhism is a form of Mahayana Buddhism that originated in China and is strongly focused on meditation. It is characteristically sceptical towards language and distrustful of conceptual thought, which explains why Zen Buddhist sayings are so enigmatic and succinct. But despite Zen Buddhism’s hostility towards theory and discourse, it is possible to reflect philosophically on Zen Buddhism and bring out its philosophical insights.  In this short book, Byung-Chul Han seeks to unfold the philosophical force inherent in Zen Buddhism, delving into the foundations of Far Eastern thought to which Zen Buddhism is indebted. Han does this comparatively by confronting and contrasting the insights of Zen Buddhism with the philosophies of Plato, Leibniz, Fichte, Hegel, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, Heidegger and others, showing that Zen Buddhism and Western philosophy have very different ways of understanding religion, subjectivity, emptiness, friendliness and death.  This important work by one of the most widely read philosophers and cultural theorists of our time will be of great value to anyone interested in comparative philosophy and religion.

Since Buddhism does not include a belief in a personal god instrumental to the creation of the world or to human salvation, it is often assumed that gods play no part in Buddhism at all. This Element complicates the simplistic assessment of Buddhism as an ''atheistic religion'' and discusses the various roles deities play in Buddhist texts and practice. The Problem of God in Buddhism includes a comprehensive analysis of the Buddhist refutations of a creator God, the idea of salvation without divine intervention, the role of minor deities in Buddhism, the question of whether Buddhas and Bodhisattvas can function as gods in certain forms of Buddhism, and the notion of the sacred as apart from the divine in Buddhist traditions.

Firmly grounded in the day-to-day reality of being a mother, this revised and updated edition of The Complete Buddhism for Mothers gives personal and honest advice based on Buddhist teachings as applied to the everyday challenges of bringing up children. Become a calmer and happier mother with The Complete Buddhism for Mothers, fully revised and updated for the modern mother. Parenthood can be a time of great inner turmoil for a woman yet parenting books invariably focus on nurturing children rather than the mothers who struggle to raise them. This book is different. These two acclaimed bestselling books - Buddhism for Mothers and Buddhism for Mothers of Young Children - bound together in this edition, explore the joy of being with your children in the all-important present moment. In these books, mothers have found the inspiration to be more patient, loving and attentive towards their children, other family members, other parents, but most of all, themselves. In her clear and engaging way, Sarah Napthali takes us on a journey through the challenges (and the pleasures!) of raising children, using Buddhist teachings and principles to help her answer the eternal questions of mothers everywhere: Who am I now? Where am I going? And how can I do my best by my children and myself? This wisdom also allows space for the deeper reflections about who we are and what makes us happy. Writing from personal experience, and weaving in stories from other mothers throughout her narrative, Sarah shows us how spiritual and mindful parenting can help all mothers to be more open and content. Even if exploring Buddhism at this busy stage of your life is not where you thought you''d be, it''s well worth reading this book. It can make a difference.

Což je jistě užitečné, ale ne příliš vzrušující… Pak se ale u domu Vilminy rodiny zjeví nejobávanější čarodějka celého Hvězdosvitu a prosí ji o pomoc. Ztratilo se totiž celé úterý. Naprosto. A bez něj by se celý vesmír mohl zhroutit. Vilma tak svírá ve svých nijak zvlášť význačných rukou osud celého světa. Dokáže zachránit svůj domov? Dá se ztracený den vůbec najít?

From one of America’s most brilliant writers, a New York Times bestselling journey through psychology, philosophy, and lots of meditation to show how Buddhism holds the key to moral clarity and enduring happiness.At the heart of Buddhism is a simple claim: The reason we suffer—and the reason we make other people suffer—is that we don’t see the world clearly. At the heart of Buddhist meditative practice is a radical promise: We can learn to see the world, including ourselves, more clearly and so gain a deep and morally valid happiness. In this “sublime” (The New Yorker), pathbreaking book, Robert Wright shows how taking this promise seriously can change your life—how it can loosen the grip of anxiety, regret, and hatred, and how it can deepen your appreciation of beauty and of other people. He also shows why this transformation works, drawing on the latest in neuroscience and psychology, and armed with an acute understanding of human evolution. This book is the culmination of a personal journey that began with Wright’s landmark book on evolutionary psychology, The Moral Animal, and deepened as he immersed himself in meditative practice and conversed with some of the world’s most skilled meditators. The result is a story that is “provocative, informative and...deeply rewarding” (The New York Times Book Review), and as entertaining as it is illuminating. Written with the wit, clarity, and grace for which Wright is famous, Why Buddhism Is True lays the foundation for a spiritual life in a secular age and shows how, in a time of technological distraction and social division, we can save ourselves from ourselves, both as individuals and as a species.

Edmund Husserl vytyčil nové filosofické téma: pole samotné zkušenosti. Když Emmanuel Levinas hovoří o Touze a Druhém, jakým zkušenostem tato okázale pronášená slova vlastně odpovídají? Dá se ještě tvrdit, že se jejich domnělý obsah stává předmětem sledovatelné filosofické úvahy? A navazuje současná fenomenologie ve Francii na Husserla, nebo na Levinase? Takto lze schematicky shrnout jádro stále živé polemiky, kterou v roce 1991 rozvířil Dominique Janicaud publikací „Teologického obratu ve francouzské fenomenologii“. Ve stati „Otevřená fenomenologie“ z roku 1998 se pak Janicaud k tématu vrátil a upřesnil pozitivní jádro sporu úvahou o chápání fenomenologie u Heideggera, o vztahu fenomenologie a hermeneutiky a o vyhlídkách „minimalistické fenomenologie“, jež by se vzdala metafyzických nároků a využívala škály inspiračních zdrojů od Husserla, Sartra a Merleau-Pontyho po Wittgensteina, Dennetta a Deleuze. Dominique Janicaud (1937–2002) proslul především jako znalec francouzské recepce Heideggerova díla. Jeho stať o „teologickém obratu“ ve francouzské fenomenologii je všeobecně uznávána jako zásadní příspěvek k sebereflexi současného francouzského myšlení.

He has been called the world''s best pastry chef. But this wasn''t always the case.

With easy-to-follow instructions and kitchen tips, home cooks can master the building-blocks of desserts.

Vůně mají mnoho tajemství. Objevit je znamená vyrazit na cestu kolem světa. Hlava, srdce, základ. To jsou tři stěžejní součásti parfému, které se rozvoní v různou chvíli. Každou z těchto složek může tvořit hned několik vůní a celý parfém pak i desítky esencí. Úspěšné, mámivé a afrodiziakální kombinace jsou proto dobře střeženým tajemstvím velkých luxusních značek a globálního parfémářského byznysu. Kde se však berou samotné vůně? Dominique Roques už přes třicet let dodává parfémářům po celém světě vonné esence z více než sto padesáti surovin a padesáti zemí. A teď se chce podělit o příběh vůní, míst i lidí, kteří za úspěšnými parfémy stojí, ať už to jsou sadaři, sběrači, pěstitelé, dřevorubci, byznysmeni, nebo dokonce mafiáni. Roques ukazuje, na jak složitém a křehkém systému parfémářský průmysl stojí, kolik práce a úsilí je za každou esencí a jak vše dělat udržitelně a odpovědně. A při svém vyprávění vezme čtenáře na dobrodružnou výpravu od Andalusie po Laos, od Venezuely po Somálijsko, od prastarých metod až po nejmodernější technologie.

Francouzský autor ve svém díle přibližuje čtenářům komplikovanou osobnost světoznámého českého a francouzského romanopisce. Popis jeho neméně spletité umělecké, intelektuální, politické i literární pouti Jean-Dominique Brierre zasadil do kontextu československých dějin, rámovaného lety 1948 (únorový puč) a 1989 (sametová revoluce). Čerpal přitom ze zápisků, rozhovorů a doposud nezveřejněných svědectví, například ze vzpomínek Kunderova přítele Alaina Finkielkrauta a jeho překladatele Françoise Kérela. Pohled "zvnějšku" na naše dějiny vztažené k životu spisovatele, jenž stále budí zvědavost, ať v kladném, či záporném smyslu, je bonus, přidaný k dalšímu z mnoha Kunderových portrétů.

V listopadu 1947 rozhodla OSN o rozdělení Palestiny na židovský a arabský stát. Tento akt roztočil spirálu násilí, která přerostla v regulérní válku. Světoznámí autoři Larry Collins a Dominique Lapierre rozehrávají strhující drama, které literaturu faktu povýšilo na velký román. Historické události, jejichž tragické důsledky jsou dodnes tématem zpráv, ožívají na stránkách knihy jako v přímém přenosu. Dramatické okamžiky vedoucí ke vzniku židovského státu a krvavý boj za jeho nezávislost nahlížejí skrze mozaiku příběhů a individuálních dramat. Momenty radosti se střídají s momenty smutku, naděje se zoufalstvím, láska s násilím, hrdinství se zbabělostí, vítězství s porážkami… Za jedinečným plastickým portrétem boje o Jeruzalém byly roky práce. Stovky setkání - s králi, premiéry, generály, obyčejnými vojáky, osadníky, teroristy, pekaři… Tisíce prostudovaných dokumentů odhalily dosud nezveřejněné informace. Díky tomu může čtenář nahlédnout do komnat arabských panovníků, do utajených velitelských štábů židovské armády, do válečných zákopů, do synagóg, mešit i kostelů, za stěny bytů i kaváren. Tam všude byli lidé, kteří v onom velkém zápase sehráli svou roli. V zápase, který se pro Židy jevil beznadějný. A přece Izrael dokázal vytrvat. Měl něco, co nepříteli chybělo. Odhodlání.

Kniha francouzského významného politologa Dominique Moiseho (* 1946) se neotřelým způsobem zabývá otázkou emocí v dnešním světě, jež vysvětluje na podkladu současných nejpopulárnějších televizních seriálů (Hra o trůny, Dům z karet, Okupace, Homeland, ale i Panství Downton). Autor upozorňuje na to, že od 11. září 2001 zasahuje světová politika stále více nejen do našeho každodenního života, ale i do naší imaginace. Seriály se staly odkazem stejně tak kulturním jako politickým a skoro se přitom zdá, že jejich scenáristé se díky své intuici stávají lepšími analytiky současného světa než profesionální politologové. Na otázku, jaká emoce tedy nejvíce charakterizuje současnou společnost, Moise odpovídá: je to strach. Strach z barbarství a vítězství chaosu, jak jej zobrazuje Hra o trůny, strach z toho, že dosavadní řád a smysl světa mizí, jejž pociťují hrdinové Panství Downton, strach z terorismu, který je hlavním tématem série Homeland a konečně strach z ruské hrozby, již velmi realisticky zobrazuje norsko-švédský seriál Okupace.

Svým vstupem do světa báseň utváří prostor, v němž se ocitá. Prostřednictvím lyrických gest klade otázky, otevírá, volá, slibuje, dává či uchovává. Dominique Rabaté v sérii esejů ukazuje na příkladech autorů jako Baudelaire, Apollinaire, Frénaud, Bonnefoy nebo Michaux způsob, jímž tato gesta-pohyby napomáhají překračovat hranice řeči směrem k obrazovosti a navracejí jazyku jeho účinnost ve snaze dospět k něčemu, co stojí zcela mimo něj. Čtením básně se tak podílíme na dobrodružství, jež započal autor, když pokynul svou rukou směrem za obzor, o němž jsme si doposud mysleli, že je nedosažitelný.

According to Anna Heringer, “Beauty has nothing to do with money or finance, but everything to do with creativity and love”. With statements like this she clearly has her finger on the pulse of our time, judging by the packed lecture halls, international awards such as the 2007 Aga Kahn Award or the 2020 OBEL Award, and exhibitions at MoMA, MAM Sao Paulo, and the Venice Biennale. In Form Follows Love, Anna Heringer talks to author Dominique Gauzin-Müller about her career as an architect, her studies, her experiences during a workshop by Martin Rauch, her practice in the Global South, and current projects in the Global North.

Mingling fact and fiction, The Three Rimbauds imagines how Rimbaud’s life would have unfolded had he not died at the age of thirty-seven. The myth of Arthur Rimbaud (1854–1891) focuses on his early years: how the great enfant terrible tore through the nineteenth-century literary scene with reckless abandon, leaving behind him a trail of enemies, the failed marriage of an ex-lover who shot him, and a body of revolutionary poetry that changed French literature forever. He stopped writing poetry at the age of twenty-one when he left Europe to travel the world. He returned only shortly before his death at the age of thirty-seven.  But what if 1891 marked not the year of his death, but the start of a great new beginning: the poet’s secret return to Paris, which launched the mature phase of his literary career? This slim, experimental volume by Dominique Noguez shows that the imaginary “mature” Rimbaud—the one who returned from Harar in 1891, married Paul Claudel’s sister in 1907, converted to Catholicism in 1925, and went on to produce some of the greatest works in twentieth-century French prose—was already present in the almost forgotten works of his childhood, in style and themes alike. Only by reacquainting ourselves with the three Rimbauds—child, young adult, and imaginary older adult—can we truly gauge the range of the complete writer.
