Nacismus byl alternativou královské vlády; nikdy by nemohly existovat bok po boku, jak Hitler dobře věděl. Odstranění německých a rakouských panovníků v roce 1918 umožnilo Hitlerův nástup k moci. Jejich nástupci pak v roce 1945 přispěli k jeho porážce. Role, kterou sehrály panovnické evropské rody v porážce Hitlera, se často přehlíží. Frank Millard ve své knize přibližuje příběhy monarchů a jejich účasti v odporu proti nacismu, které byly potlačeny do pozadí slavnějšími politickými a vojenskými akcemi, jenž stály v centru pozornosti médií. Kniha Královské rody proti Hitlerovi ukazuje, jak hluboce byl princ Ludvík Ferdinand Pruský zapojen do hnutí německého protinacistického odporu. Všímá si osudů Otto von Habsburka, který byl odsouzen k trestu smrti, ale podařilo se mu uprchnout a koordinovat úsilí o osvobození své vlasti, či prince Ruprechta Bavorského, který musel uprchnout před pronásledováním esesáků a jeho žena a děti skončily v koncentračních táborech. Ať už se monarchové nacházeli v zemích Spojenců, schovávali se, byli v koncentračních táborech či vězení, všude se snažili zapojit do boje proti nacismu. Jejich koordinované úsilí bylo sice nenápadné, ale podstatně přispělo k pádu diktátora, zejména díky jejich nesmírné a trvalé morální autoritě.

S naší vlastní minulostí se vede válka. Probíhá kulturní křížová výprava s cílem učinit historii západní civilizace toxickou – ať už jde o strhávání soch, „dekolonizaci“ učebních osnov nebo vymazávání výrazů z našeho slovníku. Co je v sázce, když je ve společnosti tak silně podporován pocit hanby vůči západním dějinám?Profesor Frank Furedi ve své knize ostře hájí historii Západu a vyzývá k odporu proti delegitimizaci jejích ideálů i nesporných úspěchů. Vnímání minulosti jako příběhu hanby se v mnoha zemích stalo samozřejmým postojem, který prostupuje vzdělávací a kulturní život západní společnosti. Jeho zastánci to mohou považovat za kulturní nezbytnost, ale společnost, která ztratí kontakt se svou minulostí, se odsuzuje k trvalé krizi identity.Promarnit moudrost, kterou nám předávají dějiny, znamená zradit pozitivní výdobytky lidstva. Profesor Furedi tvrdí, že je zápas o naši historii jedním z nejdůležitějších konfliktů naší doby.

The Reynolds Pamphlet (1797) is an essay by Alexander Hamilton. Written while Hamilton was serving as Secretary of the Treasury, the Pamphlet was intended as a defense against accusations that Hamilton had conspired with James Reynolds to misuse funds meant to cover unpaid wages to Revolutionary War veterans. Admitting to an affair with Maria, Reynolds’ wife, Hamilton claims that the accusation is nothing more than an attempt at blackmail. This revelation not only endangered Hamilton’s career as a public figure, but constituted perhaps the earliest sex scandal in American history. “The bare perusal of the letters from Reynolds and his wife is sufficient to convince my greatest enemy that there is nothing worse in the affair than an irregular and indelicate amour. For this, I bow to the just censure which it merits. I have paid pretty severely for the folly and can never recollect it without disgust and self condemnation. It might seem affectation to say more.”Accused of corruption in his role as Secretary of the Treasury, Alexander Hamilton was forced to confess his adultery, bringing shame to himself as a married man and supposedly honorable public figure, yet saving his political career in the process. Looking back on his affair with Maria Reynolds from a distance of five years, Hamilton expresses regret for his foolishness, yet wholeheartedly denies her husband’s accusation that he had been involved in his scheme to misuse government funds. Perhaps the first sex scandal in American history, the Reynolds affair sent shockwaves throughout the burgeoning republic, leaving many to question the motives and character of their leaders for the first time, though certainly not the last.

Twenty-five years since acid house and Ecstasy revolutionized pop culture, Simon Reynolds''s landmark rave history Energy Flash has been expanded and updated to cover twenty-first-century developments like dubstep and EDM''s recent takeover of America.Author of the acclaimed postpunk history Rip It Up and Start Again, Reynolds became a rave convert in the early nineties. He experienced first-hand the scene''s drug-fuelled rollercoaster of euphoria and darkness. He danced at Castlemorton, the illegal 1992 mega-rave that sent spasms of anxiety through the Establishment and resulted in the Criminal Justice and Public Order Bill. Mixing personal reminiscence with interviews and ultra-vivid description of the underground''s ever-changing sounds as they mutated under the influence of MDMA and other drugs, Energy Flash is the definitive chronicle of electronic dance culture.From rave''s origins in Chicago house and Detroit techno, through Ibiza, Madchester and the anarchic free-party scene, to the pirate-radio underworld of jungle and UK garage, and then onto 2000s-shaping genres such as grime and electro, Reynolds documents with authority, insight and infectious enthusiasm the tracks, DJs, producers and promoters that soundtracked a generation. A substantial final section, added for this new Faber edition, brings the book right up to date, covering dubstep''s explosive rise to mass popularity and America''s recent but ardent embrace of rave. Packed with interviews with participants and charismatic innovators like Derrick May, Goldie and Aphex Twin, Energy Flash is an infinitely entertaining and essential history of dance music.

Simon Reynolds''s first book in eight years is a celebration of music that feels like a taste of tomorrow. Sounds that prefigure pop music''s future - the vanguard genres and heroic innovators whose discoveries eventually get accepted by the wider mass audience. But it''s also about the way music can stir anticipation for a thrillingly transformed world just around the corner: a future that might be utopian or dystopian, but at least will be radically changed and exhilaratingly other. Starting with an extraordinary chapter on Giorgio Moroder and Donna Summer, taking in illuminating profiles of Ryuichi Sakamoto, Boards of Canada, Burial, and Daft Punk, and arguing for Auto-Tune as the defining sound of 21st century pop, Futuromania shapes over two-dozen essays and interviews into a chronological narrative of machine-music from the 1970s to now. Reynolds explores the interface between pop music and science fiction''s utopian dreams and nightmare visions, always emphasising the quirky human individuals abusing the technology as much as the era-defining advances in electronic hardware and digital software. A tapestry of the scenes and subcultures that have proliferated in that febrile, sexy and contested space where man meets machine, Futuromania is an enthused listening guide that will propel readers towards adventures in sound. There is a lifetime of electronic listening here.

Mack Reynolds' novel "Mercenary" is a science fiction novel. This thought-provoking tale takes place in a future society dominated by political beliefs, power struggles, and international interactions. Miles Gilbert, the protagonist, is a professional mercenary, a soldier for hire in a world where nations no longer fight traditional wars but instead hire mercenaries to fight on their behalf.

As the novel progresses, Gilbert becomes engaged in a succession of worldwide wars, each of which is motivated by the interests of strong nations and companies. His experiences shed insight on the complex mechanics of a society where conflict has become a profitable business. Mack Reynolds deftly employs "Mercenary" as a vehicle for exploring themes of war, diplomacy, and the ethics of violence.

A strap. A piece. A biscuit. A burner. A heater. A chopper. A gat. A hammer A tool for RULE Or, you can call it a gun. That’s what fifteen-year-old Will has shoved in the back waistband of his jeans. See, his brother Shawn was just murdered. And Will knows the rules. No crying. No snitching. Revenge. That’s where Will’s now heading, with that gun shoved in the back waistband of his jeans, the gun that was his brother’s gun. He gets on the elevator, seventh floor, stoked. He knows who he’s after. Or does he? As the elevator stops on the sixth floor, on comes Buck. Buck, Will finds out, is who gave Shawn the gun before Will took the gun. Buck tells Will to check that the gun is even loaded. And that’s when Will sees that one bullet is missing. And the only one who could have fired Shawn’s gun was Shawn. Huh. Will didn’t know that Shawn had ever actually USED his gun. Bigger huh. BUCK IS DEAD. But Buck’s in the elevator? Just as Will’s trying to think this through, the door to the next floor opens. A teenage girl gets on, waves away the smoke from Dead Buck’s cigarette. Will doesn’t know her, but she knew him. Knew. When they were eight. And stray bullets had cut through the playground, and Will had tried to cover her, but she was hit anyway, and so what she wants to know, on that fifth floor elevator stop, is, what if Will, Will with the gun shoved in the back waistband of his jeans, MISSES. And so it goes, the whole long way down, as the elevator stops on each floor, and at each stop someone connected to his brother gets on to give Will a piece to a bigger story than the one he thinks he knows. A story that might never know an END…if WILL gets off that elevator. Told in short, fierce staccato narrative verse, Long Way Down is a fast and furious, dazzlingly brilliant look at teenage gun violence, as could only be told by Jason Reynolds.

What are you willing to do to survive? What are you willing to endure if it means you might live?'Achingly moving, gives much-needed hope . . . Deserves the status both as a valuable historical source and as a stand-out memoir' Daily Express'A story that needs to be heard' 5***** Reader Review Entering Terezin, a Nazi concentration camp, Franci was expected to die. She refused. In the summer of 1942, twenty-two-year-old Franci Rabinek - designated a Jew by the Nazi racial laws - arrived at Terezin, a concentration camp and ghetto forty miles north of her home in Prague. It would be the beginning of her three-year journey from Terezin to the Czech family camp in Auschwitz-Birkenau, to the slave labour camps in Hamburg, and finally to Bergen Belsen. Franci, a spirited and glamorous young woman, was known among her fellow inmates as the Prague dress designer. Having endured the transportation of her parents, she never forgot her mother's parting words:'Your only duty to us is to stay alive'. During an Auschwitz selection, Franci would spontaneously lie to Nazi officer Dr Josef Mengele, and claim to be an electrician. A split-second decision that would go on to endanger - and save - her life. Unpublished for 50 years, Franci's War is an astonishing account of one woman's attempt to survive. Heartbreaking and candid, Franci finds the light in her darkest years and the horrors she faces instill in her, strength and resilience to survive and to live again. She gives a voice to the women prisoners in her tight-knit circle of friends. Her testimony sheds new light on the alliances, love affairs, and sexual barter that took place during the Holocaust, offering a compelling insight into the resilience and courage of ordinary people in an extraordinary situation. Above all, Franci's War asks us to explore what it takes to survive, and what it means to truly live. 'A candid account of shocking events. Franci is someone many women today will be able to identify with' 5***** Reader Review'First-hand accounts of life in Nazi death camps never lose their terrible power but few are as extraordinary as Franci's War' Mail on Sunday'Fascinating and traumatic. Well worth a read' 5***** Reader Review

Frank Sayi grew up in Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe, in the 1970s. His childhood straddled two very significant periods in his country''s history, both of which heavily influenced his memoir. The first was the war of liberation (1975-1979), closely followed by the post-independence internecine war (1981-1987).Crucially, Frank was raised in a native reserve in colonial Rhodesia, a country under white minority rule, governed by Ian Smith''s racist and illegal regime. Native reserves were places of repression, and containment-replete of hope.Frank and his two older sisters, Thoko and Gift, lived with their grandmother, a stern, wise, mercurial matriarch, capable of intimidating severity, and her son Uncle Sami. Frank''s mother, the main breadwinner, lived in the city. Frank and his siblings didn''t see much of her; in his mind she was just another sister.The memoir is intricately woven around the lives of the members of Frank''s immediate family, whom he uses to foreground the tragic lives of a people caught within the web of war.Their lives were extremely hard. During the war a dusk-to-dawn curfew was declared, schools were closed, and food supply chains and clothing contaminated with poison. Thousands of refugees fled the warring factions. There seemed to Frank to be no difference between government soldiers, various law enforcement agencies, and the guerrillas fighting for freedom: they were all men of violence, who terrorised the civilian population.However, by June 1979 there was a brief hiatus in fighting. And after protracted negotiations, Blacks gained their independence from white rule in April 1980. The country had a new name: Zimbabwe; Blacks welcomed a new national anthem-Nkosi sikelel''Africa! - God Bless Africa - but after an extra-ordinarily convenient discovery of an arms cache was made on a farm in Matabeleland, the stronghold of the opposition, Robert Mugabe declared total war on Matabeleland. He unleashed Gukurundi, his North Korean-trained partisan army on the Ndebele people who hadn''t voted for him. Simply put, this was a war of retribution.By 1982 Frank had joined his father''s family in N''kayi, one of the areas to experience the most intense violence and massacres by Gukurahundi soldiers. By using scorched-earth tactics, they brought famine, disease, murder, rape, and terror.Within their first week of deployment, they''d ruthlessly dispensed with more than 2000 lives.And as a silhouette of war, Frank''s memoir showcases human capacity for extra-ordinary violence, but also, compassion, endurance, survival and the triumph of the human spirit. It binds together the narratives from two wars and acts as lens through which the implications of political violence in Zimbabwe can be understood. Frank goes beyond and beneath standard historical narratives of war and examines the psychological impact of war on ordinary people.But more importantly, Frank''s memoir tells of a childhood conditioned in the shadow of the mayhem brought about by the structure and dehumanising effects of colonialism and it''s dreadful legacy, and the impact of civil war. Yet it is full of moving, hilarious, and beautiful stories of innocence and the increasingly hard-won experience of a war-torn childhood, and the development of a man who was determined to leave this violence behind.

Kniha zkoumá divokou dobrodružnou hudbu vytvořenou po punku. Renomovaný hudební novinář Simon Reynolds oslavuje futuristického ducha Joy Division, Gang of Four, Talking Heads či Devo a dalších kapel, který vyústil v nekonečné inovace v hudbě, textech, vystoupení a stylu a pokračoval počátkem osmdesátých let videem - například důvtipným synth popem Human League, Depeche Mode či Soft Cell, jejichž úspěch se shodoval s nástupem MTV. Celou knihou se jako červená nit vine téma návaznosti na v té době už utichlou punkovou explozi. Nejde ale ani tak o odkaz punku jako hudebního stylu, mnohem důležitější je jeho nastolený étos, snaha vymanit se přístupem DIY z osidel zavedeného hudebního byznysu - po hudební stránce šlo spíše o to, kam po odeznění punku dál. V jednu chvíli jsme uvažovali o nahrazení výrazu post punk výrazem nová vlna, českým pamětníkům přece jen důvěrněji známým. Je pravda, že u nás se toto sousloví používalo dlouhou dobu a výraz post punk se ujal později než jinde. Záhy jsme však narazili na dvě významná ale. Zaprvé jen těžko můžeme za novou vlnu označit industriální kapely nebo např. Residents či Birthday Party. A co newyorské kapely, které se výrazem no wave proti new wave přímo vyhrazovaly? Mnohem víc se vžila představa novovlňáků jako fešných mládenců s dlouhými patkami a očními stíny, důležitě se tvářícími za svými synťáky (pravda, v druhé části knihy jich pár najdeme). Zadruhé se dnes běžně hovoří o postpunkovém revivalu - jen stěží by někdo použil výraz novovlnný revival. A není tohle všechno koneckonců jedno? Je jen na vás, jestli držíte v ruce knihu, mapující historii post punku, nebo raději nové vlny.

The manga edition of the long-awaited sequel to the award-winning classic Ronin by Frank Miller A cursed Ronin. Psychological manipulation by a sentient AI. A security commander turned savior. And a postapocalyptic biotech war in the demon-teeming pits of a twenty-first century New York inadvertently started by the once benevolent Aquarius Corporation. Eisner Hall of Famer Frank Miller’s Ronin is cited as the inspiration for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Samurai Jack. Now—40 years later—Miller, with the team Philip Tan and Daniel Henriques, returns to the world of Ronin, continuing his story for a new generation in Frank Miller’s Ronin Rising. With Philip Tan and Daniel Henriques providing pencils and inks for chapters 1, 2, 3, and 5 of the manga, and the masterful Frank Miller himself drawing chapters 4 and 6, Frank Miller’s Ronin Rising is a visual feast, with skillfully executed battle sequences that seem to jump off the page. Miller and his team continue the story of Ronin deftly and intentionally, drawing the reader into his postapocalyptic world as completely as he did in the original series run, published in 1983–84 by DC Comics, which is widely considered to be one of his most influential original works. This affordable manga edition pays homage to Frank Miller’s inspirations for the original Ronin, appealing to Frank Miller fans and manga readers alike.
