Nyní však západosaské království Wessex čelí novému přílivu krvelačných Dánů, který zažene krále Alfreda a jeho věrné až do nepřístupných bažin, kde jsou nuceni skrývat se před nepřáteli jako nějací psanci.Zbožný panovník usilující o sjednocení Anglie, jemuž historie dala přídomek Veliký, se však nevzdává a pomalu shromažďuje vojsko, s nímž chce pohanské vetřelce vyhnat ze své země. Uhtred hraje v jeho plánech klíčovou roli, jejich vztah ovšem není zrovna ideální – horkokrevný mladý válečník totiž chová více sympatií k divokým Seveřanům než ke svému králi, který spíše než středověkého rytíře připomíná křesťanského světce. Jemu však přísahal věrnost a také by jednou rád získal zpět své panství, k čemuž by mu mohl dopomoci právě Alfred.

Srdnatý mladík však nezapomíná na křivdy, které mu kdysi způsobil zlovolný strýc Ælfric, a míří proto do Northumbrie, aby se pomstil za útrapy v útlém dětství. Jenže býčí odhodlání ani rytířská horkokrevnost nebudou bijci nic platné, poleví-li v ostražitosti.Ironií osudu namísto na bebbanburský trůn usedá k veslu otrokářského plavidla, z nějž očividně nelze uniknout jinak než coby mrtvola hozená přes palubu.

An extraordinary and dramatic depiction of the legendary battle of Agincourt from the number one historical novelistAzincourt, fought on October 25th 1415, St Crispin''s Day, is one of England’s best-known battles, in part through the brilliant depiction of it in Shakespeare''s Henry V, in part because it was a brilliant and unexpected English victory and in part because it was the first battle won by the use of the longbow – a weapon developed by the English which enabled them to dominate the European battlefields for the rest of the century.Bernard Cornwell’s Azincourt is a vivid, breathtaking and meticulously well-researched account of this momentous battle and its aftermath. From the varying viewpoints of nobles, peasants, archers, and horsemen, Azincourt skilfully brings to life the hours of relentless fighting, the desperation of an army crippled by disease and the exceptional bravery of the English soldiers.

Film na DVD - Příběh o králi Artušovi a jeho rytířích kulatého stolu získává od vizionářského filmového tvůrce Johna Boormana ve snímku Excalibur tu nejlepší podobu. Legenda o králi Artušovi a rytířích Kulatého stolu se dočkala nejpůsobivějšího ztvárnění v Excaliburu, filmu vizionářského režiséra Johna Boormana (Vysvobození, Naděje a sláva). Jsou v něm přítomny všechny prvky klasického příběhu sira Thomase Maloryho Le Morte Darthur: Artuš (Nigel Terry), který dokázal vytáhnout z kamene meč Excalibur, vznik a tragický úpadek šlechetného společenství Kulatého stolu, hrdinský pokus o nalezení Svatého grálu a proměnlivá rovnováha moci mezi lstivým kouzelníkem Merlinem (Nicol Williamson) a ďábelskou čarodějkou Morganou (Helen Mirren). Za účasti Patricka Stewarta, Gabriela Byrnea a Liama Neesona, kteří tu na sebe poprvé výrazněji upozorňují, nabízí Excalibur, slovy Pauline Kael v The New Yorkeru: „Jednu šťavnatou, úchvatnou scénu za druhou.”

An intimate testament to the power of friendship between two creative forces“I exaggerate, I sometimes make changes to the subject, but I still don’t invent the whole of painting; on the contrary, I find it ready-made—but to be untangled—in the real world.” —Vincent van Gogh to Émile Bernard The painter and poet Émile Bernard’s firsthand account of the beloved painter Vincent van Gogh’s life offers deep perspective into the Dutch artist’s process, artistic preoccupations, and difficulties. In the 1890s, Bernard penned prefaces for collections of letters from Van Gogh, some of which were published while others were not. In 1911, Bernard gathered together these prefaces for a new publication, to which he also contributed a new introductory text, of the artist’s letters and sketches which he enclosed in his correspondence. This volume comprises these prefaces, published in English for the first time, as well as a selection of letters from Van Gogh to Bernard. In addition to including biographical details and reflections on art and friendship, Bernard chronicles his attempts to have Van Gogh’s work recognized after his death. Shedding light on the artistic community they inhabited, he also discusses notable figures such as Claude Monet and Paul Gauguin. Letters ... Unknown localization key: "more"

From a childhood steeped in racism from neighbours, priests and even some white members of her own family, to discovering the arts through her local youth theatre; from stuffing her belongings into bin bags, always on the move between temporary homes, to exploring many romantic partners both toxic and loving, male and female, and eventually finding her soulmate; from setting up Britain''s first theatre company for Black women in the eighties to growing into the trailblazing writer, theatre-maker, teacher, mentor and activist we see today - Bernardine charts her rebellion against the mainstream and her life-long commitment to community and creativity.
