A myth-busting chronicle of bad-tempered, Brexit-riven England SUNDAY TIMESâ ˜Wonderfully evocative. Too honest, too nuanced and too deep for any party manifesto MATTHEW PARRISAfter an election where people voted for a politics that our new Prime Minister describes as treading more lightly on peopleâ ™s lives , this must-read book charts a gentler course for a country that has suffered the ructions of profound change in recent decades.Some politicians will still talk of restoring an English birthright of liberty and the swashbuckling self-confidence to rule the waves. Others yearn for the old-fashioned morality which they claim once civilised a savage world or want to look inwards to a story of an enchanted island that can stand alone and isolated against the world. But England, by Tom Baldwin, the bestselling biographer of Keir Starmer, and Marc Stears, an influential think tank head, unravels the myths that have distorted ideas of this country and provided ammunition for culture warriors from both left and right. Instead of vainly promising to solve everything all at once, Baldwin and Stears provide clues for how a humbler, less grandiose, set of ideas rooted in real lives can help fix some of the things that have gone so badly wrong in recent years. They travel from muddy fields in the Home Counties to the ports of Plymouth and Hull. They visit the old industrial heartland of Wolverhampton, spend weekends in the worn-down seaside resort of Blackpool, then gaze up the gleaming towers of modernity on the edge of London and the dreaming spires of Oxford. Along the way, they speak with many different people who tell stories of England, including politicians Nigel Farage and David Lammy, campaigner Chrisann Jarrett, playwright James Graham and scientist Sarah Gilbert. What emerges is a startlingly fresh and vivid picture of an old country that belongs to everyone, or at least, to no one in particular.

To Be a Problem - Dara Baldwin, Keith P. Jones
A searing critique of the disability rights movement from within, and a call for collective liberation that is pro-Black and centers disabled people of colorFor over twenty years, Dara Baldwin has often been the only person of color in the room when significant disability policy decisions are made. Disenfranchisement of people of color and multi-marginalized communities within the disability rights community is not new and has left many inside the community feeling frustrated and erased.In To Be a Problem, Baldwin candidly shares her journey to becoming a disability activist and policymaker in DC while critiquing the disability rights community. She reveals the reality of erasure for many Black people and people of color in the disability movement and argues that, in turn, many white disabled people center themselves within the work without addressing their own white privilege.Disability rights groups have been centering white, straight, cisgender people while racial justice groups often fail to center disabled people, leading many Black and Brown disabled people to start their own Disability Justice organizations. Drawing from her unique vantage point, Baldwin calls readers to understand the shortcomings of the disability rights movement while inspiring us to push all movements towards a more inclusive and authentic liberation.

Drawing on James Baldwin s own boyhood in a religious community in 1930s Harlem, his first novel tells the story of young Johnny Grimes. Johnny is destined to become a preacher like his father, Gabriel, at the Temple of the Fire Baptized, where the church swells with song and it is as if the Holy Ghost were riding on the air . But he feels only scalding hatred for Gabriel, whose fear and fanaticism lead him to abuse his family. Johnny vows that, for him, things will be different. This blazing tale is full of passion and guilt, of secret sinners and prayers singing on the wind. His prose hit me, almost winding me with its intensity.

Manual Not Included - Hilaria Baldwin
In thoughtful, candid, and often funny vignettes, Hilaria Baldwin—mother, wellness expert, and star of TLC’s The Baldwins—reveals the highs and lows and unpredictable outtakes from her different and not-so-different life.There’s no set of instructions when it comes to navigating the challenges life throws at us. However, by sharing our narratives and finding our commonality, we can better deal with what comes our way. After meeting her husband, actor Alec Baldwin, Hilaria found joy and purpose entering the public eye, where she sought to build community and connection with others. She also faced the challenges of the uglier, more toxic parts of the spotlight, living under a warped magnifying glass. Through the ups and downs, Hilaria leaned into wisdom and support offered by others, learning that optimism, kindness, and a sense of humor can put life into perspective. And additionally learning that we are not alone, that we are more alike than we are different. In Manual Not Included, Hilaria writes about the relatable, hard-earned insights she’s gained from her experiences as an individual, a partner, and a parent—from feeling empowered, to having a fulfilling relationship, to being as good a mother as possible, all while still being a work in progress. Within chapters about love, motherhood, and friendship, Hilaria offers up her candid stories around common themes facing women—from feeling like you’re too much and also not enough, to grappling with the expectation to be a “good girl,” and to striving for unattainable perfection. While there is no one right way to live, by sharing what we’ve learned along the way, with compassion and without judgment, we can each create our own perfectly imperfect manual.

A creatively conceived appreciation for a decorated life and its far-flung influences on race, queer culture, and art.â â ”Kirkus Reviews  James Baldwin (1924â “1987) was a pivotal figure of the twentieth century, an influential author, intellectual, and activist who led a celebrated public lifeâ ”and whose words and image and persona remain current in our culture. Baldwinâ ™s many incarnations⠔⠜son of Harlem,â â œBlack icon,â â œgreat twentieth-century writer,â â œrace man,â â œprophet,â â œwitnessâ â ”have reemerged in the digital age as Baldwinâ ™s work becomes a touchstone for a new generation.

Taking a cue from Baldwinâ ™s own love of the blues, Zaborowska presents his biography as a series of tracks on a vinyl record, introducing, developing, and remixing the themes and relationships from his life. She recounts episodes from Baldwinâ ™s troubled childhood, his struggles with sexuality and gender, his intimate relationships, and the overlooked influence of women, Jews, and queers on his writing. This Life Album revolves around Baldwinâ ™s development of a unique worldview, â œBlack queer humanism,â premised on African diaspora aesthetics, resilience, joy, community, internationalism, activism, and justice.

Everyone has heard of Robin Hood, the brilliant archer who robbed the rich to give to the poor and who always triumphed over the forces of evil, but the man behind the legend is as mysterious as King Arthur. There were outlaws who lived in the royal forests preying on unwary travelers, and Robin Hoods whose names are recorded in historical documents: but no one has been able to prove that one of these real Robins was the individual whose exploits were commemorated in ballad and song. David Baldwin sets out to find the real Robin Hood, looking for clues in the earliest ballads and in official and legal documents of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. His search takes him to the troubled reign of King Henry III, his conclusions turn history on its head and David Baldwin reveals the name of the man who inspired the tales of Robin Hood.

Nevidite?ná staroba.txt - Jolana Novotná, Linn Sandberg, Marlene Goldman, May Chazan, Melissa Baldwin
Prostřednictvím překladových i autorských textů Jolana Novotna, Linn Sandberg, Marlene Goldman, May Chazan a Melissy Baldwin odhaluje jednu z nejméně viditelných součástí života ve vyšším věku - prožívání sexuality a sexuálních vztahů. Vyvrací mýty o asexuálnosti starých lidí a ukazuje, že sexualita ve vyšším věku je tvořená širokou paletou erotických a emancipačních výrazů. Neviditelná staroba.txt je druhou sbírkou edice, kterou sestavují Display - Sdružení pro výzkum a kolektivní praxi, angažovaný měsíčník Kapitál a umělecký kolektiv APART. Edice .txt přináší eseje reagující na aktuální umělecké a společenské trendy, které zatím navzdory své urgenci nemají v českém a slovenském prostředí výrazné zpracování. Jedná se o soubor překladů významných světových myslietelek a myslietelů, a také původních slovenských či českých textů, které promptně reagují na nejnovější filozofické, kulturní, umělecké a společenské fenomény. Tyto eseje se pohybují na pomezí akademického a uměleckého výzkumu a angažované praxe - aktivně se zapojují do společenské debaty, exponují problémy, které je trápí; jejich hlas není tichý a rezignovaný, ale výrazný a naléhavý. Právě pro tyto hlasy chce být edice .txt otevřenou platformou.

Another Country - James Baldwin
When Another Country appeared in 1962, it caused a literary sensation. James Baldwin s masterly story of desire, hatred and violence opens with the unforgettable character of Rufus Scott, a scavenging Harlem jazz musician adrift in New York. Self-destructive, bad and brilliant, he draws us into a Bohemian underworld pulsing with heat, music and sex, where desperate and dangerous characters betray, love and test each other to the limit.

Nordic Hero Tales from the Kalevala - James Baldwin
A homesick hero, a pair of friendly rivals, a triumphant bridegroom, and a golden maiden populate the pages of this treasury, a collection of awe-inspiring stories from Finnish mythology. Assembled by educator James Baldwin, a specialist in adapting ancient narratives into captivating prose, these 38 entrancing tales are drawn from the oral traditions of the Finnish national epic, the Kalevala.The Kalevala spans many ages, from the beginning of the earth to the remote past, long before its legends were sung and chanted in humble homes and grand palaces alike. Its tales of heroes and gods center on the fate of a sampo, a highly prized and jealously guarded magical artifact. J. R. R. Tolkien was much influenced by this fantasy cycle of the Far North, and readers of all ages continue to fall under its spell. This edition of the beloved classic features four magnificent illustrations by N. C. Wyeth.

On James Baldwin - Colm Tóibín
Colm TóibÃnâ ™s personal account of encountering James Baldwinâ ™s work, published in Baldwinâ ™s centenary year.  Acclaimed Irish novelist Colm TóibÃn first read James Baldwin just after turning eighteen. He had completed his first year at an Irish university and was struggling to free himself from a religious upbringing. He had even considered entering a seminary and was searching for literature that would offer illumination and insight. Inspired by the novel Go Tell It on the Mountain, TóibÃn found a writer who would be a lifelong companion and exemplar.  From On James BaldwinBaldwin was interested in the hidden and dramatic areas in his own being, and was prepared as a writer to explore difficult truths about his own private life. In his fiction, he had to battle for the right of his protagonists to choose or influence their destinies. He knew about guilt and rage and bitter privacies in a way that few of his White novelist contemporaries did. And this was not simply because he was Black and homosexual; the difference arose from the very nature of his talent, from the texture of his sensibility. â œAll art,â he wrote, â œis a kind of confession, more or less oblique. All artists, if they are to survive, are forced, at last, to tell the whole story, to vomit the anguish up.â On James Baldwin is a magnificent contemporary authorâ ™s tribute to one of his most consequential literary progenitors.

Fighting the First Wave - Peter Baldwin
COVID-19 is the biggest public health and economic disaster of our time. It has posed the same threat across the globe, yet countries have responded very differently and some have clearly fared much better than others. Peter Baldwin uncovers the reasons why in this definitive account of the global politics of pandemic. He shows that how nations responded depended above all on the political tools available - how firmly could the authorities order citizens lives and how willingly would they be obeyed? In Asia, nations quarantined the infected and their contacts. In the Americas and Europe they shut down their economies, hoping to squelch the virus s spread. Others, above all Sweden, responded with a light touch, putting their faith in social consensus over coercion. Whether citizens would follow their leaders requests and how soon they would tire of their demands were crucial to hopes of taming the pandemic.

Going To Meet The Man - James Baldwin
‘Everyone’s life begins on a level where races, armies, and churches stop. And yet everyone’s life is always shaped by races, churches, and armies’ In these eight extraordinary stories of love, conflict, desperation and fear, James Baldwin shows people trapped by the roles they must play in society, and those who try and escape them. From the child in ‘The Rockpile’ whose God-fearing father will not forgive his illegitimacy, to the adolescent who hides his sexuality from his community in ‘The Outing’, and from the down-and-out jazz pianist recovering from addiction in ‘Sonny’s Blues’ to the chilling initiation of a racist in ‘Going to Meet the Man’, these tales, first published in 1965, explore the subtle and profound wounds that discrimination leaves – both in its victims and its perpetrators.

King Cnut and the Viking Conquest of England 1016 - W. B. Bartlett
The Viking Conquest of England in 1016 ⠓ a far tougher and more brutal campaign than the Norman Conquest exactly half a century later ⠓ saw two great warriors, the Danish prince Cnut and his equally ruthless English opponent King Edmund Ironside, fight an epic campaign. Cnut sailed in two hundred longboats, landing first in September 1015 on the Wessex coast with 10,000 soldiers. The two forces fought each other to the point of exhaustion for the next fourteen months. It was a war of terrifying violence that scarred much of England, from the Humber to Cornwall. It saw an epic siege of the great walls of London and bruising set-piece battles at Penselwood, Otford, and the conclusive Danish victory at Assandun on 18 October 1016.Edmund⠙s death soon afterwards finally resolved a brutal, bloody conf lict and ended with Cnut becoming the undisputed king of England. This book tells the extraordinary story of Cnut the Great⠙s life. Cnut was far removed from the archetypal pagan Viking, being a staunch protector of the Christian Church and a man who would also become Emperor of the North as king of Denmark and Norway. His wife, Emma of Normandy, was a remarkable woman who would outlive the two kings of England that she married. Their son Harthacnut would be the second and last Danish king of England, but the greatness of his dynasty did not long survive his death. This saga also features the incompetent Æthelred the Unready, the ferocious Sweyn Forkbeard and the treacherous Eadric Streona, recreating one of the great stories of Dark Age England.
