Vlk a plch - Vratislav Brabenec, Richard Pecha
Bude to už deset let, co Vráťa Brabenec, básník, spisovatel, zahradník a bývalý člen legendárních The Plastic People of the Universe, slíbil Bertě pohádku. Jenže místo psaní pohádky koncertoval, psal básně, zahradničil a tak. Berta mezitím vyrostla a na Vráťův slib se zapomnělo. Pak přišla taková ta doba, kdy člověk musel trávit doma víc času, než by si přál a Vráťa začal pořádat kosmický chaos na svém pracovním stole. A ejhle, zjistil, že v nějakých červích dírách svého bytí pohádku přece jen napsal. Dokonce ne jen jednu. Když je člověk čte, zdá se možná lepší, že Bertě už nejsou čtyři roky. Ačkoliv, kdo ví. Ilustrace přidal Richard Pecha, graficky upravil Jan Kloss (OKOLO) a není to čtení pro slabý kusy, milý babies, jak k tomu poznamenal Jan Vitvar z Respektu.

Karlín - přístav/Karlin - the Port - Vratislav Brabenec, Richard Pecha
Vratislav Brabenec, člen legendárních The Plastic People of the Universe, básník, spisovatel a zahradník, čtenářstvu, po dlouhých 26 letech, znovu předkládá svou deliriální prózu Karlín - přístav, tentokrát v česko-anglickém dvojjazyčném provedení. Autorem převodu do angličtiny je starý Vráťův kumpán z Toronta, Josef Vykydal (pro čtenáře Brabencových próz nikoliv neznámá postava). Sepsáno jedné noci roku 1981 v šíleném období probíhající akce Asanace, po brutálním výslechu a následném pokusu o uklidnění se rumem. Vzdouvající se a klesající tok Vltavy, nespoutaná imaginace, karlínské hospody - lze to vyjádřit jinak než česky? Posuďte sami.

Trdliště - Vratislav Brabenec, Richard Pecha
Když I. M. Jirous nemohl z důvodu úmrtí pokračovat v psaní textů pro Divadelní noviny, zkusili oslovit Vráťu Brabence. A vyšlo najevo, že takový kratší, většinou jednostránkový, formát nejlépe vyhovuje jeho vypravěčskému stylu. Po prvním sborníku s názvem Podoby, vrhá se Brabenec vstříc trhu s dalším souborem textů, tentokrát pojmenovaném příznačně Trdliště. Vyzrálejší, vtipnější, moudřejší, smutnější, přesto stále stejný vypravěč Vráťa dokáže popsat setkání s lesy, zvířaty i lidmi v Kanadě právě tak poutavě, jako cestu do vršovické večerky pro placku rumu. Opět s ilustracemi Richarda Pechy.

Payday - Vratislav Brabenec, Richard Pecha
Kniha úvah, vzpomínek a pozorování z pera básníka, zahradníka, saxofonisty a textaře The Plastic People of the Universe Vratislava Brabence. Čistá a přímá, autor při psaní nepomýšlel na zveřejnění textů. Každý z nich je opatřen datem vzniku, nejsou však řazeny chronologicky, je na čtenáři jakou metodu čtení zvolí. Jako ilustrace byly použity skicy Richarda Pechy k cyklu obrazů Zůstal bych v lese, ale bydlím ve městě, který tím pádem již nevznikne. Ilustrátor, za použití písma Tabac, uspořádal každý text tak, aby byl sám sobě grafickým doprovodem. Ideální příloha k pivu a vínu. A k rumu.

Stromečky - Vratislav Brabenec, Jaromír E. Brabenec
V domě, ve kterým se můj bratr Jaromír narodil, jsem kdysi, když mi bylo asi 15, zasadil tis, tehdy značený jako fastigiata. Časem bylo zřetelný, že je spíš erecta. Tak představil v knize Payday Vratislav Brabenec, básník, spisovatel, zahradník a bývalý člen legendárních The Plastic People of the Universe, svého staršího bratra. Vráťa s oblibou líčí, jak po atentátu na Heydricha Jaromír unikl ze školy a proplížil se německým obklíčením Prahy, jen aby si mohl prohlédnout svého čerstvě narozeného nejmladšího bráchu. Nyní, po 79 letech od oné události, přichází s novou knihou svých textů, bohatě ilustrovanou právě bratrem Jaromírem. Unikátní a první spolupráci obou Brabenců (Jaromír je známý sochař, malíř a kreslíř) graficky upravil Jan Kloss (OKOLO) a dal tak vzniknout mimořádnému literárně-výtvarnému artefaktu.

Vráťa Brabenec a Berta Vlčí mák jsou kamarádi. Celej život. Teda ten Berty. Vráťa se totiž narodil o 66 let dřív, takže se znají 9 let. Bude to 5 let, co spolu uzavřeli smlouvu. Kolik je Bertě? A kolik jí bylo, když dohodli tu smlouvu? Ale ne, to není zajímavý. Podstatný je, na čem se v tý smlouvě dohodli - Vratislav napíše pohádku, ona vysype prasátko a koupí mu pivo. A když se jí pohádka bude jó líbit, přikoupí i rum. Takhle jednoduchá ta smlouvička byla. Jenže Vráťa měl jinou práci, a když Berta tvrdě vyžadovala splnění smlouvy, tak jí řekl: - Nevím, kam jsem rozum dal, holka, pohádky takhle nemůžou psát kamarádi, ale jen fotři. Berta se poučila. S tátou žádnou smlouvu nesjednávala a prostě mu oznámila: - Tati, napíšeš mi pohádku a v ní budou - Vráťa, vlci, princezna, drak, potravní řetězec, dalajláma, rytíř, všechny možný zvířata, les, bohové a babička, co umřela, než jsem se narodila.

What Is Mathematics? - Herbert Robbins, Richard, 1888-1972 Courant
For more than two thousand years a familiarity with mathematics has been regarded as an indispensable part of the intellectual equipment of every cultured person. Today, unfortunately, the traditional place of mathematics in education is in grave danger. The teaching and learning of mathematics has degenerated into the realm of rote memorization, the outcome of which leads to satisfactory formal ability but does not lead to real understanding or to greater intellectual independence. This new edition of Richard Courant''s and Herbert Robbins''s classic work seeks to address this problem. Its goal is to put the meaning back into mathematics. Written for beginners and scholars, for students and teachers, for philosophers and engineers, What is Mathematics?, Second Edition is a sparkling collection of mathematical gems that offers an entertaining and accessible portrait of the mathematical world. Covering everything from natural numbers and the number system to geometrical constructions and projective geometry, from topology and calculus to matters of principle and the Continuum Hypothesis, this fascinating survey allows readers to delve into mathematics as an organic whole rather than an empty drill in problem solving. With chapters largely independent of one another and sections that lead upward from basic to more advanced ... Unknown localization key: "more"

And the Garden Is You - Michael Taussig
A new collection of essays reflecting on the centrality of writing anthropological practice from one of the discipline’s most influential thinkers.  Michael Taussig’s work is known for its critical insights and bold, experimental style. In the eleven essays in this new collection, Taussig reflects on the act of writing itself, demonstrating its importance for anthropological practice and calling for the discipline to keep experiential knowledge from being extinguished as fieldnotes become scholarship.  Setting out to show how this can be done, And the Garden Is You exemplifies a form of exploratory writing that preserves the spontaneity of notes scribbled down in haste. In these essays, the author’s reflections take us from his childhood in Sydney to trips to Afghanistan, Colombia, Finland, Italy, Turkey, and Syria. Along the way, Taussig explores themes of fabulation and provocation that are central to his life’s work, in addition to the thinkers dearest to him—Bataille, Benjamin, Burroughs, and Nietzsche, among others. This collection is vintage Taussig, bound to interest longtime readers and newcomers alike. Â

Garden Futures: Designing with Nature - Mateo Kries, Viviane Stappmanns
The garden as laboratory for our Anthropocene future, from Derek Jarman to Piet Oudolf, urban farming to vertical gardensGardens have always been places of leisure, pleasure and production; they reflect identities, dreams and visions. Deeply rooted in their culture, gardens have immense symbolic potential. The recent revival of horticulture has focused less on the garden as a romantic refuge than as a place where we might imagine the future and develop solutions. Urban farms, vertical gardens and other innovative projects in art, architecture and urban planning demonstrate that the present return to the garden is no timid retreat, but a pioneering quest for a world in which social and ecological justice count for something.Garden Futures examines what gardens and their design reveal about our relationship to nature. In exploring the history of ideas behind the genesis of the modern garden, the book takes a close look at the present, goes in search of origins in the past and builds bridges into the future. Stunning photographs illustrate groundbreaking gardens by such designers as Derek Jarman and Piet Oudolf, while critical articles by well-known authors question conventional garden ideals—from perfect lawns to the ubiquitous garden plants and their colonial roots.

Melbourne Hall Garden - Jodie Jones
Explore the famous historical gardens of Melbourne Hall, widely considered one of the most treasured historical gardens in England. The garden is admired for its natural tunnel made up of the sweeping branches of an ancient yew tree, as well as its wrought iron arbour created by Robert Bakewell (known as the ‘Birdcage’, which made Bakewell famous, but also left him penniless). There have been few radical alterations to the gardens since the early 18th century. However, in the earlier part of the 20th century, extensive restoration was carried out. Now home to Lord and Lady Ralph Kerr, the garden remains a beautifully kept treasure. Lady Kerr has developed the garden and her eye for colour and detail means that the Melbourne Garden is a haven of delightful and unusual specimen trees, shrubs and herbaceous borders. Although still very much an 18th-century garden, the new planting schemes have introduced greater botanical interest. Covering both the early history and more recent developments under its current owners, this stunning book contains numerous specially commissioned images by renowned garden photographer Andrea Jones, which show this spectacular garden through the seasons.

The Wild Garden - Cynthia Cliff
Filled with charmingly rustic illustrations of people, plants and animals, this story about community and biodiversity introduces children to the variety of ways things can grow and flourish in nature.  In the village of Mirren, a tidy community garden is carefully organized and tended by the townspeople. On the other side of the garden wall is a wild patch of land— a jumble of trees, a pond, and tall grassy places. While the garden is cared for in different ways throughout the seasons, Jilly and her grandfather like to visit the wild place, foraging for mushrooms, asparagus, and nuts, and watching the insects, birds and other animals. When the townspeople decide they need a bigger garden, they make plans to expand beyond the wall into the wild place. Worried about what will happen to their special piece of nature, Jilly and her grandfather come up with a plan, inviting the townspeople to discover a new kind of gardening. Their plan works and the wild place and the community garden merge harmoniously; the bees pollinate the crops, berry bushes take over a garden corner, pumpkins grow along the pond, and delicious herbs appear among the ferns.
