Forgotten Times and Spaces (978-80-210-7781-2)
Elektronická kniha - autor Martin Novák, 617 stran, anglicky Kniha přináší přes čtyřicet příspěvků mezinárodního kolektivu autorů a jejím záměrem je především shromáždit a popsat střípky předchozích, zapomenutých způsobů života. Lidský život a evoluce překlenuje různé historické epochy i místa, osud člověka se však zdá neúprosný, protože svědkové, vzpomínky i hmatatelné důkazy lidské existence se nevyhnutelně vytrácejí. Kniha současně odráží výsledky široké, mezinárodní spolupráce Jiřího A. Svobody, významného vědce, s autory příspěvků, včetně těch, kteří se jeho dílem inspirují.

Kati pražského jara - Martin Novák
Jméno Leonid Brežněv zná v České republice skoro každý, včetně těch, kteří se narodili nebo vyrůstali po listopadu 1989. Muž, spojený s likvidací reformního procesu v Československu v roce 1968, ovlivnil životy Čechů a Slováků tak jako málokterý jiný zahraniční politik. A s ním i ti, kteří od poloviny šedesátých do poloviny osmdesátých let v Kremlu rozhodovali o tom, co velmoc jménem SSSR udělá: Alexej Kosygin, Jurij Andropov, Michail Suslov, Andrej Gromyko, Konstantin Černěnko a další. Reportér a publicista Martin Novák poprvé přehledně a z různých pohledů mapuje brežněvovské období, jež nazývá érou “katů Pražského jara”. Řadu míst spojených s Brežněvovým životem a jeho režimem autor navštívil a dlouho shromažďoval dokumenty i svědectví. Popisuje Brežněvovo složité dětství a dospívání na Ukrajině, Stalinův dlouhý posmrtný stín na veškeré dění v Sovětském svazu, dramatické detaily spiknutí proti Chruščovovi, tvrdý boj o pozice v Kremlu, pronásledování a týrání disidentů, marné pokusy o reformování nemocné sovětské ekonomiky. Vedle toho se zabývá také podrobnostmi dialogu mezi Washingtonem a Moskvou v první polovině sedmdesátých let, vpádem vojsk Varšavské smlouvy do Československa, konfliktem s Čínou, invazí do Afghánistánu či krizí v Polsku v roce 1981.

24. únor 2022 změnil moderní historii a obrátil ji naruby. Ruská invaze na Ukrajinu znamenala zásadní zlom v poválečném uspořádání Evropy. Náš kontinent zasáhla největší válka za posledních osmdesát let. Válka, která se odehrává jen pár stovek kilometrů daleko. Ruský diktátor a teď už i válečný zločinec Putin se ale přepočítal. Ukrajina nepadla a nepodvolila se. Povstala, brání se a bojuje. Její statečnost obdivuje celý svět. A Kremlu se podařil přesný opak, než zamýšlel. Agrese sjednotila NATO a EU v bezprecedentní pomoci Kyjevu. Sjednotil i samotnou Ukrajinu, která byla před invazí rozdělena na ruskojazyčný východ a západ, kde převládala ukrajinština. Nyní je Ukrajina jednotná jako nikdy v historii. Válka je přítomna i u nás. Do Česka dorazily stovky tisíc uprchlíků a česká vláda a veřejnost patří mezi největší podporovatele Ukrajiny v jejím spravedlivém boji. Intenzivní zpravodajství z války mohlo sotva někoho nechat stranou tohoto konfliktu. Historie, která se odehrává přímo před našima očima, vyvolává spoustu otázek. Proč Putin Ukrajinu napadl? Jak to, že se tak přepočítal? Kde se vzala v Ukrajincích taková odvaha? Může Ukrajina celou válku vyhrát? Kde jsou příčiny mohutné vlny české solidarity? Může Moskva použít jadernou zbraň? Má Rusko šanci na změnu? Třináct předních reportérů, publicistů a expertů se snaží nalézt odpovědi na tyto otázky a nabízí svůj pohled a reflexi toho, co se na Ukrajině, v Rusku i u nás děje. Kniha tak předkládá plastický a mnohovrstevnatý pohled na současné události. V této knize se sešla unikátní společnost: Jakub Szántó, Jakub Železný, Lenka Klicperová, Stanislav Krupař, Martin Novák, Petr Pavel, Petr Kolář, Šimon Pánek, Václav Bartuška, Jevhen Perebyjnis, Anton Litvin, Tomáš Pojar, Daniela Vodáčková

Na Slovensku sa stal známym a obľúbeným vďaka televíznej šou, v ktorej inšpiruje kuchárov.Martinovou najväčšou inšpiráciou a oporou sú však jeho manželka a dve deti, s ktorými zdieľa nielen svoj čas, ale aj lásku k jedlu a vareniu, čím si spolu vytvárajú nezabudnuteľné rodinné chvíle okolo stola.Jeho filozofia varenia sa zakladá na štyroch pilieroch: čerstvosti, lokálnych surovinách, hravosti a fantázii.

Utterly Lazy and Inattentive - Martin Parr, Wendy Jones
By the age of 14, I decided I would be a photographer. â ˜Itâ ™s what I will do for the rest of my life, until I drop dead.â ™ I knew when I was very young. It was a definite decision. Donâ ™t ask me why. I just knew it was the right thing.When Martin Parr was fourteen, his teacher wrote that he was â ˜utterly lazy and inattentiveâ ™ in a school report. He went on to become one of the most successful and sought-after photographers in the world. Martin has published over one hundred photobooks on many different subjects, from seaside resorts to smoking, over his career. Now, for the first and only time, Martin has produced a book about himself, telling his own story, in his own words.This autobiography combines over 150 of Martinâ ™s photographs â “ from his earliest snapshots to the work he is doing today â “ with his recollections and reflections on each image. We meet a boy growing up in suburbia, who collects obsessively and notices everything. We see him exploding into the public consciousness in the late eighties with a series of startling, ultra-saturated colour images of the British seaside â “ and scandalising the photography establishment in the process. We see society changing over the decades, from the demise of steam trains, through the opening of the first McDonaldâ ™s in Moscow, to the transformations of the post-pandemic world.As Martin shares his story, his distinctive voice delicately captured by his friend, the writer Wendy Jones, he also reveals his approach to work and commissions; his tricks for gaining access and getting the shot; and he divulges his particular passions: for crowds and queues, fetes and placards, bad weather on beaches, and more.This is the definitive account of a great photographerâ ™s career, curating the work that has defined his life. By looking at the world through his eyes and his lens, we come away seeing Martin Parr â “ and ourselves â “ a little differently.

Svoboda slova v zrcadle univerzitních dějin - Alena Mizerová, Radka Vyskočilová, Lea Novotná, Radek Gomola
Univerzita bez vlastního nakladatelství je jako katedrála bez varhan: planá a němá. Masarykova univerzita své nakladatelství má, počtem vydaných publikací dokonce patří k největším ve střední Evropě. Neúnavně šíří univerzitní vědění a étos nejen prostřednictvím knih, ale na všech dnes myslitelných nosičích. Barevné panoráma činnosti Nakladatelství Munipress i historické ohlédnutí přináší tato jubilejní publikace. Je věnována stému výročí založení Masarykovy univerzity a všem umlčovaným autorům v jejích dějinách.

Jan Špáta - Martin Štoll
Prof. Mgr. Jan Špáta (25. 10. 1932 v Náchodě – 18. 8. 2006 v Praze) měl v českém dokumentu roli zakladatelskou a průkopnickou. Kromě filmů (např. Respice finem, Země sv. Patricka, Variace na téma Gustava Mahlera, Největší přání, Mezi světlem a tmou, 777 vteřin v Československu, GEN – Miroslav Horníček, GEN – Vlastimil Brodský nebo Láska, kterou opouštím) se čtenářům vybaví jeho přístup k realitě a humanistický a etický rozměr práce dokumentaristy, který důsledně naplňoval po celou dobu své kariéry. Jeho jméno je svým způsobem firemní značkou: evokuje filmy, které jsou přes svůj smutek pozitivní, které dovedou rozplakat i rozveselit, které nabízejí katarzi, načechrají duši a pohladí a s nimiž se člověk musí cítit dobře – nejsou zákeřné a neubližují. Podobné jsou i jeho fejetony, které po léta vydával v MF Dnes, v Lidových novinách a v Týdeníku Rozhlas.Monografie přináší shrnující pohled na klasika českého filmu a představuje podrobně jeho bohatý životní příběh. Je koncipována nejen pro laiky, kteří mají rádi Špátův přístup ke světu a jeho svéráznou filozofii, ale také pro odborníky a filmaře, kteří zde mají možnost nahlédnout do jeho tvůrčí kuchyně. Knihu napsal a četnými přílohami vypravil Špátův přítel, bývalý student, Martin Štoll.

Forgotten Founders and Other Neglected Social Theorists
This edited volume highlights the work of ten forgotten and neglected social theorists in the hope of reinvigorating interest in their work and their potential contributions to the analysis of contemporary social issues. Each chapter includes a brief biographical sketch, an overview of the selected theoristâ ™s work and significance, and the relevance of their work to one or more contemporary social issues. While other similar texts tend to focus primarily on intellectual biography, our emphasis here is on the scholarâ ™s theories and their application to contemporary social issues. We provide a contextualization of each scholarâ ™s work, using present-day social issues or problems. Many of these individuals played a significant role in the development of sociology. Our hope is to provide a resource that will help re-integrate these marginalized social theorists, rescuing them from obscurity and elevating their status.

Forgotten Times - Allan Hailstone
The 1950s and 1960s saw great change across the British Isles, but there were also huge variations in everyday life in the streets and countryside around the UK and Ireland at the time. In Forgotten Times: The British Isles in the 1950s and 1960s, Allan Hailstone presents a photographic portrait of this era from his travels around Scotland, England, Wales, Ireland and some of the other smaller islands making up the British Isles. To many readers today, this time seems remarkably far away, with many of our modern conveniences not yet imagined. This nostalgic look at a fascinating era will be of interest to all those who remember the 1950s and 1960s well, or those who wish to have a window into that world.

Freedom in the Mirror of University History - Alena Mizerová
A university without its own publishing house is like a cathedral without an organ: wild-growing and silent. Masaryk University has got its publishing house, which even ranks among the largest in Central Europe by the number of publications, tirelessly spreading university knowledge and ethos not only through books, but on all present-day conceivable media. This jubilee publication brings a colourful panorama of the Munipress publishing house activities together with a historical overview. It is dedicated to the centenary of the Masaryk University and to all the silenced authors in its history.

Off the Beaten Track: England and Wales - Martin Dorey
England and Wales might feel familiar to many, but there are countless hidden idylls and remote wildernesses to discover amongst the soaring passes, spectacular coastlines and boundless moorlands. For many, Martin s slow road routes will have opened up the country s most well known highways and byways, but there is so much more to England and Wales than these, at times overcrowded, hotspots. This book is the next, natural step in Martin s wanderings around England and Wales. If Take The Slow Road whetted the appetite for a Great British adventure, this book will be the main course, filling you up with inspiring writing and beautiful imagery from the most remote and wild corners of England and Wales. It will take you to the very edges of the map, on a series of personal journeys to uncover parts of these countries that the masses never reach but wish they could. In discovering these secret and beautiful places this fabulous book shows the reader that, with a little imagination, and some effort, they too can get off the beaten track in their own country.

Míla Doleželová - Aleš Filip, Jana Horváthová, Alena Mizerová, Tomáš Mazáč, Markéta Bártová
Kniha přináší nový, objevný pohled na tvorbu zcela mimořádné malířky Míly Doleželové (1922–1993). Žila a tvořila v Praze a hlavně na Vysočině, pod horou Javořicí, v Jihlávce, Klatovci a Telči. Milovníkům umění zanechala nesmírně obsažné a monumentální dílo sestávající z fresek a nesčetného množství olejomaleb, kreseb a grafik.Úvodní kapitola knihy z pera Markéty Bártové přiblíží životní osudy Míly Doleželové i jejího manžela, malíře a grafika Jiřího Mareše (1932–1984). Umělkyně se nejvíce proslavila jako „malířka cikánů“, hloubka jejího zájmu o romskou tematiku však značně přesáhla pouhé vnější okouzlení, neboť romský prvek, romipen, v jejím díle hluboce rezonoval. Ve své kapitole, jejíž záběr přesahuje až k současným romským umělcům, to názorně dokládá Jana Horváthová. Navzdory nepřízni ateistického režimu Doleželová po dobu tří desetiletí tvůrčím způsobem rozvíjela křesťanská témata. Možné odpovědi na otázky po filozofickém a teologickém obsahu této významné části jejího díla formuluje ve své kapitole Tomáš Mazáč.Monografie vychází u příležitosti 100. výročí narození malířky, doprovází ji téměř tři sta reprodukcí obrazů, fotografií a dokumentů, obrazové kalendárium jejího života a díla a několik příloh.

Two surreal graphic novels about technology, corporatization, and alienation in the modern world by a cult-favorite comics innovator.In 1968, the British artist and writer Martin Vaughn-James emigrated to Canada. Over the next eight years, he proceeded to produce some of the most mesmerizing and inventive works in comics, light-years ahead of his contemporaries. Among them were Elephant and The Projector, linked graphic novels that guide the reader (and a bespectacled Everyman) through landscapes built out of both the everyday and the nightmarish. Jam-packed superhighways, plummeting horses, vast urban wastelands, colossal businessmen, demented cartoon animals, and interstellar oranges are just a small part of Vaughn-James’s prophetic vision of society’s turn away from the natural world to the artificial.Together for the first time in a single volume, designed and edited by Seth and with an introduction by Jeet Heer, Elephant and The Projector stand as a reminder that we have yet to catch up to Vaughn-James.

Pier Railways and Tramways - Martin Easdown
The nineteenth-century craze for building pleasure piers around the coast of Britain has left a legacy of seaside fun unmatched around the world. Although some of Britainâ ™s piers have succumbed to fire and storm damage over the years, over fifty of these remarkable structures are still standing today. A number were built with railways and tramways to convey holidaymakers to the end of the pier, several of which survive today. These include the longest pier, at Southend-on-Sea, which opened an electric railway in 1890, when the pier was rebuilt to its present extent; the oldest seaside pleasure pier, at Ryde, which has a railway from the pier head that links to the rest of the network on the Isle of Wight; and the Hythe Pier Railway, which takes passengers to and from the ferry link at the end of the pier.Martin Easdown has been researching Britainâ ™s piers and their railways for many years and presents a photographic survey of them around the UK and Ireland. The photographs show both self-contained pier railways and tramways and pier railways connected to the National Rail Network. As well as the vehicles, pier stations are illustrated, including those that were not actually on the piers but the shore beside them. With many rare and fascinating photographs, this book will be of interest to railway enthusiasts and those nostalgic for the quintessential British seaside holiday.

Anger and Forgiveness - Martha C. Nussbaumová
Anger is not just ubiquitous, it is also popular. Many people think it is impossible to care sufficiently for justice without anger at injustice. Many believe that it is impossible for individuals to vindicate their own self-respect or to move beyond an injury without anger. To not feel anger in those cases would be considered suspect. Is this how we should think about anger, or is anger above all a disease, deforming both the personal and the political?In this wide-ranging book, Martha C. Nussbaum, one of our leading public intellectuals, argues that anger is conceptually confused and normatively pernicious. It assumes that the suffering of the wrongdoer restores the thing that was damaged, and it betrays an all-too-lively interest in relative status and humiliation. Studying anger in intimate relationships, casual daily interactions, the workplace, the criminal justice system, and movements for social transformation, Nussbaum shows that anger s core ideas are both infantile and harmful. Is forgiveness the best way of transcending anger? Nussbaum examines different conceptions of this much-sentimentalized notion, both in the Jewish and Christian traditions and in secular morality. Some forms of forgiveness are ethically promising, she claims, but others are subtle allies of retribution: those that exact a performance of contrition and abasement as a condition of waiving angry feelings. In general, she argues, a spirit of generosity (combined, in some cases, with a reliance on impartial welfare-oriented legal institutions) is the best way to respond to injury. Applied to the personal and the political realms, Nussbaum s profoundly insightful and erudite view of anger and forgiveness puts both in a startling new light.

The Kaiser's Holocaust: Germany's Forgotten Genocide and the Colonial Roots of Nazism (057123142X)
Kniha - autor Casper Erichsen; David Olusoga, 394 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná On 12 May 1883, the German flag was raised on the coast of South-West Africa, modern Namibia - the beginnings of Germany's African Empire. As colonial forces moved in , their ruthless punitive raids became an open war of extermination. Thousands of the indigenous people were killed or driven out into the desert to die. By 1905, the survivors were interned in concentration camps, and systematically starved and worked to death. Years later, the people and ideas that drove the ethnic cleansing of German South West Africa would influence the formation of the Nazi party. "The Kaiser's Holocaust" uncovers extraordinary links between the two regimes: their ideologies, personnel, even symbols and uniform. The Herero and Nama genocide was deliberately concealed for almost a century. Today, as the graves of the victims are uncovered, its re-emergence challenges the belief that...

Aston Martin - Russell Hayes
Aston Martin is the Great British survivor among car manufacturers.Created as Bamford Martin in 1913, Aston Martin’s subsequent century-long existence has seen the company go bust seven times, win the Le Mans 24 Hours and become indispensable transport for a certain movie spy. This comprehensive and timely two-volume study by Russell Hayes covers Aston Martin’s adventure from the very beginning, setting the cars in context with the changing automotive world and rivals, and adding insights from contemporary road tests and first-hand accounts from recent company personalities. Fourteen chapters make sense of every Aston Martin for both the cognoscenti and the uninitiated, supported by a lavish array of photographs. • Beginnings, 1913–26: Robert Bamford and Lionel Martin started producing small sporting cars that showed prowess in racing.• The Bertelli and Sutherland eras, 1926–39: Under the leadership of Augustus ‘Bert’ Bertelli and then investor Gordon Sutherland, Aston Martins became rakish road cars bred through racing endeavor, notably at Le Mans.• The early David Brown cars, 1948–59: A glorious period unfolded under tractor magnate David Brown, with the fine DB2 family of road cars and a serious racing programme that culminated in victory at Le Mans in 1959, plus Lagondas.• The new six-cylinder cars, 1958–69: The superb DB4 was followed by the DB5, which shot the company’s image into orbit thanks to James Bond in Goldfinger, then DB6 and DBS completed the line.• A family tree of V8s, 1969–2000: Despite numerous ups and downs, Aston Martin’s big hand-built V8 engine powered an enduring family of super-exclusive cars with evocative names like Vantage, Volante and Zagato, plus the ‘wedge’ Lagonda.• Into the big time with Ford, 1987–2007: The all-new and very successful DB7 began a revival, leading to a new V12 engine, the mighty Vanquish and then the ‘VH’ cars including the DB9, V8 Vantage, Rapide and many specials.• A successful return to racing with the DBR9 and the Vantage GTE is given a dedicated chapter.• The rollercoaster continues, 2007 to date: From purchase by a consortium led by Prodrive boss David Richards to Canadian billionaire Lawrence Stroll’s present-day stewardship, Aston Martin’s activities have been enormously varied, even embracing an SUV (the luxury DBX) and a Formula 1 programme.• Full specifications are included and appendices cover the James Bond Astons and ‘continuation’ cars.This major book, a labor of love for its author, is the last word on Aston Martin and is presented to the highest standards as two volumes in a cloth-bound slipcase.

Spending his weekends exploring historic churches across the idyllic English countryside – and sharing their beauty and unsung history across social media – Luke Sherlock is bringing English history and the heritage of our rural countryside to a new audience. England is full of incredible churches, from small stone chapels and quiet Romanesque masterpieces, to thousand-year-old Saxon stalwarts, dramatic Gothic monuments and high Victorian treasures. These special places, often under-celebrated and overlooked, dot the English landscape but collectively tell a remarkable story of our nation. Travelling to all corners of England – from the Kent marshlands to the Norfolk fens, Somerset lanes and beyond – Sherlock carefully documents these unique buildings, celebrating their histories and decoding their hidden meanings. Bringing together 70 of the most unusual, intriguing and atmospheric of England’s churches, Sherlock tells stories of craftsmanship and local community, whilst centering these buildings at the heart of our national story and revealing their forgotten secrets and cultural significance.

Metaphysics and Nihilism - Martin Heidegger
The two treatises The Overcoming of Metaphysics (1938/39) and The Essence of Nihilism (1946â “1948) do not belong together temporally or formally, but they are brought together in this volume because they both treat a common thesis from the standpoint of different questions â “ namely, that nihilism is the essence of metaphysics in relation to the history of being. The overcoming of metaphysics is, for Heidegger, the decisive historical moment in which metaphysics is experienced as the history of the abandonment by being and overcome at the same time. The abandonment of beings by being reveals itself in the final and most extreme intensification of metaphysics as the â œunconditioned predominance of manipulation.â Manipulation means here the all-dominating producibility of beings. The Essence of Nihilism is linked to the idea of overcoming. This text deals with the attempt to elucidate the essence of nihilism through Nietzscheâ ™s words â œGod is dead.â  The killing of God springs from the will to power as the most extreme form of manipulation. The being of beings is grasped here as the positing of values emanating from the will to power. In this positing of being as value, it becomes clear that being itself remained unthought in metaphysics. Therefore, metaphysics as such is nihilism proper. These key works by Heidegger, now available in English for the first time, will be of great interest to students and scholars of philosophy and to anyone interested in Heideggerâ ™s thought.
