The story of a runaway slave girl and her dangerous journey through the murky underworld of Roman Britain, by Carnegie Medal-winning author Tanya Landman.From Tanya Landman, author of the 2015 Carnegie Medal winner Buffalo Soldier, comes a heart-stopping tale of love, corruption and the power of choice.

Yet the mighty Roman Empire has its limits. Beyond her master’s estate, beyond the river, far to the north stands Hadrian’s Wall. And beyond the wall? Freedom. With dogs on her trail and a bounty on her head the journey seems impossible. But then Cassia meets Marcus – slick, slippery, silver-tongued – a true and perfect son of Rome. And her only hope.

In this anthology, scholar of the fantastic David Sandner explores the first hundred years of Frankenstein’s influence. Dr. Frankenstein’s monster is one of the most iconic figures in English literature, popularized through decades of writing, film, and comedy. But even before the invention of film, Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein profoundly impacted scores of writers, gathering force for the genre that would ultimately become what we know as science fiction. This collection of short stories and excerpts from work published between 1818 to 1918 demonstrates what a pioneering myth Frankenstein has always been—from the very day when lightning first struck and it opened its eyes on the world. “Fear of age and death often creeps coldly into my heart; and the more I live, the more I dread death, even while I abhor life. Such an enigma is man—born to perish—when he wars, as I do, against the established laws of his nature.” –Mary Shelley, The Mortal Immortal

The Rights Track: Sound Evidence on Human Rights and Modern Slavery uses rich content from The Rights Track podcast [www.rightstrack.org] in an innovative book that enhances and enriches our understanding of the human rights challenges facing the world today. This book showcases the important role of evidence in tackling those challenges and explores the medium of podcasting as a tool for discussing how research evidence is used to protect and promote human rights. From counting torture victims to the joy of human rights, from modern slavery to gay rights, refugees to the radical right, the authors draw new insights and intelligence from conversations between podcast host Landman and an array of experts and advocates who are leaders in their field. Through close analysis of the voices and commentary of podcast guests from six series of the podcast, the authors illustrate the enduring importance of human rights and the need to keep talking about them.

Mary Shelleyová - Frankenstein. Světoznámý horor vypráví příběh mladého vědce Viktora Frankensteina, který stvoří umělého člověka, ohavné monstrum s nadlidskou silou? Stovky adaptací divadelních, filmových i rozhlasových, komiksy, a dokonce i počítačové hry. Přestože vznikl ve století páry, román Frankenstein opanoval zábavní průmysl i v jeho virtuální éře a stal se trvale inspirujícím dílem populární kultury. Trvalo mu to bezmála dvě století, během nichž vydělal miliardy, paradoxem je, že ne svojí autorce. Mary Wollstonecra Shelleyová u prvního vydání ani nezveřejnila své autorství, takže Frankenstein vyšel v roce 1818 anonymně a v nákladu pouhých pěti set výtisků. Předmluvu napsal již tehdy známý a skandály opředený básník Percy Bysshe Shelley, Maryin manžel, což podnítilo spekulace o jeho utajeném autorství. Dnes víme, že na románu měl jistý podíl, jako řekneme ?rodinný editor?, a právě on povzbudil svou novomanželku, aby původní náčrt povídky rozšířila na román. Ostatně byl i u toho, kdy se Mary nadchla myšlenkou napsat nějaký hrůzostrašný příběh.

Frankenstein obsahuje singly z tvorby skupiny XIII. století, které nevyšly na řadových albech. Většina z nich zde vychází v nových verzích. Především je však doplňují dvě nové písně (Frankenstein, Chaotika). Titulní skladba je poklonou gotickému žánru a zároveň odkazem k dílu Mary Shelleyové a jejímu slavnému románu. Všechny skladby napsal a album produkoval filosof temnoty Petr Štěpán, vůdčí osobnost skupiny. Skupina XIII. století vznikla v roce 1991. Hraje kytarový gothic rock vycházející z původního odkazu gotické vlny a punku. Ve svém žánru patří k naší absolutní špičce s přesahem do zahraničí.
