In the decades it took her to recover from the experience, Suzanne came to understand her suffering as part of something larger: a long tradition of women whose complicated and compromised stories of self-discovery are reduced to madwoman narratives. Transporting, honest and unflinching, Committed is a story of discovery and recovery, reclaiming the idea of the madwoman as a template for insight and transcendence through the works of Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Virginia Woolf, Sylvia Plath, Janet Frame, Shulamith Firestone and others.

A new history of how the musical worlds of German towns and cities were transformed during the Nazi era. In the years after the Nazis came to power in January 1933 and through the war years all aspects of life in Germany changed. However, despite the social and political upheaval, gentile citizens were able to continue leisure activities such as attending concerts. In this book, historian Neil Gregor surveys the classical concert scene in Nazi Germany from the perspective of the audience, rather than institutions or performers. Gregor delves into the cultural lives of ordinary Germans under conditions of dictatorship. Did the ways in which Germans heard music in the period change? Did a Nazi way of listening emerge? For audiences, Gregor shows, changes to the concert experience were small and often took place around the edges. This, combined with the preserved idea of the concert hall as a space of imagined civility and cultivation, led many concertgoers and music lovers to claim after the war that their field and their practice had been innocent-a place to retreat from the vicious violence and racism of the Nazi regime. Drawing on untapped archival sources, The Symphony Concert in Nazi Germany reveals that the true history was one of disruption but also of near effortless adaptation. Through countless small acts, the symphony concert was reframed within the languages of strident nationalism, racism, and militarism to ensure its place inside the cultural cosmos of National Socialist Germany.

THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER A scientific memoir as gripping as any HBO drama series Kate Kellaway, ObserverA dazzling scientific detective story from the ecologist who first discovered the hidden language of trees No one has done more to transform our understanding of trees than the world-renowned scientist Suzanne Simard. Now she shares the secrets of a lifetime spent uncovering startling truths about trees: their cooperation, healing capacity, memory, wisdom and sentience. Raised in the forests of British Columbia, where her family has lived for generations, Professor Simard did not set out to be a scientist. She was working in the forest service when she first discovered how trees communicate underground through an immense web of fungi, at the centre of which lie the Mother Trees: the mysterious, powerful entities that nurture their kin and sustain the forest. Though her ground-breaking findings were initially dismissed and even ridiculed, they are now firmly supported by the data. As her remarkable journey shows us, science is not a realm apart from ordinary life, but deeply connected with our humanity. In Finding the Mother Tree, she reveals how the complex cycle of forest life - on which we rely for our existence - offers profound lessons about resilience and kinship, and must be preserved before it s too late.

The Cinema of Sofia Coppola provides the first comprehensive analysis of Coppolaâ ™s oeuvre that situates her work broadly in relation to contemporary artistic, social and cultural currents. Suzanne Ferriss considers the central role of fashion - in its various manifestations - to Coppolaâ ™s films, exploring fashionâ ™s primacy in every cinematic dimension: in film narrative; production, costume and sound design; cinematography; marketing, distribution and auteur branding. She also explores the theme of celebrity, including Coppolaâ ™s own director-star persona, and argues that Coppolaâ ™s auteur status rests on an original and distinct visual style, derived from the filmmakerâ ™s complex engagement with photography and painting.Ferriss analyzes each of Coppolaâ ™s six films, categorizing them in two groups: films where fashion commands attention (Marie Antoinette, The Beguiled and The Bling Ring) and those where clothing and material goods do not stand out ostentatiously, but are essential in establishing charactersâ ™ identities and relationships (The Virgin Suicides, Lost in Translation and Somewhere). Throughout, Ferriss draws on approaches from scholarship on fashion, film, visual culture, art history, celebrity and material culture to capture the complexities of Coppolaâ ™s engagement with fashion, culture and celebrity. The Cinema of Sofia Coppola is beautifully illustrated with color images from her films, as well as artworks and advertising artefacts.

Suzanne Simardová nás zavede do svého světa, do srdce lesa. Uká­že nám, že stromy nejsou pouze zdrojem dřeva či buničiny, ale že tvoří složitý a vzájemně provázaný koloběh života. Právě její pře­vratné pátrání vedlo k objevu „lesního internetu“ (Wood Wide Web), který ve svých knihách popisuje také Peter Wohlleben. S ob­jevitelskou vášní popisuje, jak se stromy rostoucí stovky let vedle sebe vyvíjejí, jak se učí a přizpůsobují okolnostem, poznávají své sousedy a rafinovaně spolu soupeří i spolupracují. V centru jejího výzkumu přitom stojí tzv. mateřské stromy – prastaré, mocné a ta­jemné velikány, které spojují a chrání ostatní stromy ve svém okolí. „Suzanne Simardová sdílí moudrost své­ho života, kdy naslouchala lesu... Její vě­decké paměti jsou stejně napínavé jako seriály HBO.“ - THE OBSERVER „Ve své objevné prvotině o ,překvapivých tajemstvích‘ stromů Suzanne Simardová umně spojuje vědu s autobiografií... Toto průkopnické dílo čtenáře stejnou měrou poučí i dojme.“ - PUBLISHERS WEEKLY „Suzanne Simardová desítky let noři­la ruce do hlíny, navrhovala výzkumné experimenty a postupně odhalovala pozoruhodná tajemství lesní ekologie... Elegantně a podrobně popsané, hlu­boce osobní... Její kniha svědčí o tom, že Suzanne Simardová umí psát o vědě.

V současnosti vyučuje na Lesnické fakultě Univerzity Britské Kolumbie ekologii lesa a žije ve městě Nelson. Je považována za průkopnici v oblasti rostlinné komunikace a inteligence, její TED Talks zhlédlo více než deset milionů lidí po celém světě. „Začala jsem tedy podnikat výzkumné výpravy, abych zjistila, kde jsme se tak šeredně spletli, a abych rozlouskla záhadu, proč se krajina sama zahojí, když jí k tomu dáme prostor — jak jsem viděla v případě vlastních předků, kteří káceli lehčí rukou. Bylo zvláštní, téměř strašidelné, jak se má práce prolínala s mým osobním životem a splývala s ním tak důvěrně jako prvky ekosystému, které jsem zkoumala.“ Interpretka Známá je především díky dabingu, jemuž se od roku 1993 věnuje téměř výhradně. Začínala u kultovních filmů a seriálů a ikonické postavy mluví dodnes – svůj hlas propůjčila desítkám předních hollywoodských hvězd (např. Sandře Bullockové, Jodie Fosterové či Kim Basingerové).

Státní opera Praha vydává k nedožitým osmdesátinám dirigenta Bohumila Gregora knihu Aleny Martínkové s názvem Bohumil Gregor - Chtěl jsem sloužit divadlu. Publikace není odbornou monografickou studií, ale čtivou vzpomínkovou knihou, která se zrodila z autorčiných rozhovorů s touto výjimečnou uměleckou osobností.Od dětství a hudebních začátků popisuje umělcovu cestu až k nastudování poslední opery (Mertova La Roulette) ve Státní opeře Praha. Vyjadřuje nejen umělcovo celoživotní krédo, ale ukazuje i konkrétní postupy při studování a realizaci jednotlivých operních děl. Speciální kapitola je věnována práci na operách Leoše Janáčka, který byl jeho hudebnímu naturelu nejbližší. Kniha je doplněna vzpomínkami mnoha umělců, kteří s Bohumilem Gregorem spolupracovali (např. Dalibor Jedlička, Daniela Šounová-Brouková, Jana Jonášová, Hana Jonášová, Eva Děpoltová, Jiří Nekvasil ad.) a obsahuje bohatý, mnohdy doposud nepublikovaný fotografický materiál.Dirigent Bohumil Gregor (1926-2005) byl jedním z největších operních dirigentů druhé poloviny 20. století. Stal se výraznou osobností opery Národního divadla, působil v Královské opeře ve Stockholmu, ve Státní opeře v Hamburku a od roku 1986 byl hlavním hostujícím dirigentem Nizozemské opery v Amsterodamu. Hostoval pravidelně ve velkých amerických a evropských operních centrech (San Francisco, Washington, Philadelphia, Berlín, Kolín nad Rýnem, Curych, Ženeva aj.). Českou hudbu - především Janáčka, ale také Smetanu, Dvořáka a Martinů prezentoval na četných evropských festivalech.V letech 1999-2002 zastával funkci hudebního ředitele Státní opery Praha. Nastudoval zde světovou premiéru opery Bubu z Montparnassu Emila Františka Buriana, následovaly opery Polský žid Karla Weise a Hamlet Ambroise Thomase. Připravoval hudební nastudování opery La Roulette Zdenka Merty (světová premiéra 17. 3. 2005), na jejíž partituře s autorem dlouhou dobu úzce spolupracoval.Mistr Bohumil Gregor zemřel 4. 11. 2005 ve věku 79 let.
