evanjelium o uhoroch patrik svensson

Koľko toho vlastne môžeme o úhoroch vedieť? Alebo o človeku? Úhor, Anguilla anguilla, je jedným z najzáhadnejších tvorov, aké príroda kedy stvorila. Ryba, ktorá dlho predstavovala prírodovedeckú záhadu, zvanú aj „úhoria otázka“. Ryba, ktorej sa bezúspešne snažili porozumieť všetci od Aristotela až po Sigmunda Freuda. Ryba, ktorá dnes vymiera, a my nevieme prečo. Evanjelium o úhoroch je aj knihou o autorovi, o jeho otcovi a o tom, ako ich úhor spojil: „,Úhory, tie sú ti zvláštne,‘ povedal otec. Vždy keď nejakého videl, vyzeral nadšene. Akoby to tajomno k životu potreboval. Akoby v ňom vypĺňalo akési prázdno. Nechal som sa tým sám presvedčiť. Rozhodol som sa, že človek nájde to, v čo chce veriť, keď to potrebuje. Úhory sme potrebovali. Bez nich by sme neboli rovnakí.“

Part H Is for Hawk, part The Soul of an Octopus, The Book of Eels is both a meditation on the world’s most elusive fish—the eel—and a reflection on the human conditionRemarkably little is known about the European eel, Anguilla anguilla. So little, in fact, that scientists and philosophers have, for centuries, been obsessed with what has become known as the “eel question”: Where do eels come from? What are they? Are they fish or some other kind of creature altogether? Even today, in an age of advanced science, no one has ever seen eels mating or giving birth, and we still don’t understand what drives them, after living for decades in freshwater, to swim great distances back to the ocean at the end of their lives. They remain a mystery.Drawing on a breadth of research about eels in literature, history, and modern marine biology, as well as his own experience fishing for eels with his father, Patrik Svensson crafts a mesmerizing portrait of an unusual, utterly misunderstood, and completely captivating animal. In The Book of Eels, we meet renowned historical thinkers, from Aristotle to Sigmund Freud to Rachel Carson, for whom the eel was a singular obsession. And we ... Unknown localization key: "more"

''This is one of those special books . . . Even if it were only a book about eels, it would be wonderful.'' - Sunday Times''I never thought I would see myself in an eel, until I read Svensson’s beautiful book, in which he anthropomorphizes eels and shows how mysterious they are, and how little we know about them. It’s a beautiful book that makes you realize that the eel is our cousin — we are the eel, and the eel is us.'' - Michaela Coel’I can’t recall us ever talking about anything other than eels and how to best catch them, down there by the stream. Actually, I can’t remember us speaking at all. Maybe because we never did.’The European eel, Anguilla anguilla, is one of the strangest creatures nature ever created. Remarkably little is known about the eel, even today. What we do know is that it’s born as a tiny willow-leaf shaped larva in the Sargasso Sea, travels on the ocean currents toward the coasts of Europe – a journey of about four thousand miles that takes at least two years.

"My, kresťania západnej Európy, čítame evanjelium, ako by sme nemapli peniaze a používame peniaze tak, akoby sme nepoznali z evanjelia vôbec nič." Musíme pripustiť, že ako cirkvi sme zaradili evanjelium, zabudli sme na radikálnosť Ježiovho učenia: na slová "alebo Boh, alebo mamona" ale prikázanie bohatému: "Choď, predaj všetko čo máš a rozdaj chudobným". V historickom kontexte, akým je ten náš, kde sa z mamony stal boh, ho cirkvi ako dedičky silného Ježišovho slova musia začať ohlasovať bez strachu a bez prikrášľovania tak uprostred liturgických zhromaždení, ako aj na verejných námestiach.

Patricia Highsmithová - 5x Tom Ripley. Nenávidí zločin, pokud ho k němu jeho ctižádost nedonutí. Audioverze úspěšných detektivních románů Patricie Highsmithové. První román s postavou Toma Ripleyho vydala Patricia Highsmithová v roce 1955 a dala mu název, pod nímž by si čtenář mohl spíše představit životopisnou knihu o nějakém neznámém umělci než detektivku. Talentovaný pan Ripley. Už ten název byl ironickou provokací autorky, která svým životem, názory a skutky provokovala, ba někdy šokovala své okolí. Ty talenty, kterými oplýval malý podvodníček Tom táhnoucí svou bezvýznamnou existenci ze dne na den v ušmudlaném newyorském podnájmu, nebyly totiž žádné povznášející a ušlechtilé schopnosti. Naopak, jestli Tom v něčem skutečně vynikne, pak je to lež, přetvářka, cynismus a zločin. Highsmithová svého antihrdinu provede postupnou proměnou: ze zamindrákovaného mladíčka se vyklube prohnaný parazit šikovně využívající svou známost s mladíkem z milionářských kruhů, posléze nelítostný zločinec vraždící s rozmyslem a z prospěchu a nakonec hotový mistr převleku, který bez sebemenších potíží falšuje svoji identitu. Kdysi toužil po kariéře herce a nyní může konečně svou touhu uskutečnit, s tím rozdílem, že jevištěm je mu sám život. Romány s Tomem Ripleym nejsou detektivky v pravém slova smyslu, ale spíše příběhy o zločinu. Highsmithová nadaná uměním psychologizace, jímž ... Unknown localization key: "more"
