Audiokniha: Pan Stevens byl celý život loajálním, oddaným, uctivým a pečlivým majordomem na Darlingtonském panství. Jeho pojetí svědomité služby má však za následek hradbu upjatosti, přes kterou si nikdy nedovolil projevit ani ty nejzákladnější city. Když jeho letitý zaměstnavatel prodá své sídlo zbohatlickým Američanům, pokusí se zrekapitulovat svůj život, který hrdě položil na oltář abstraktnímu ideálu, aniž by se dosud odvážil reflektovat, čemu to vlastně bez oddechu sloužil. Nejznámější román Kazuo Ishigura, který obdržel Nobelovu cenu za Literaturu 2017. Podle románu vznikla stejnojmenná filmová adaptace (režie James Ivory, 1993) s Anthonym Hopkinsem a Emmou Thompsonovou v hlavních rolích. Kazuo Ishiguro (*1954) Britský spisovatel japonského původu strávil rané dětství v Japonsku, ale již jeho v šesti letech se celá rodina přestěhovala do Velké Británie, kde Ishiguro také vystudoval (od základní školy po univerzitu v Kentu). V roce 1981 publikoval první povídky a o rok později vyšel jeho první román A Pale View of Hills. Pět let poté následoval další román Malíř pomíjivého světa (Argo, 1999), který byl nominován do užšího výběru na prestižní Bookerovu cenu.

The Science Delusion is the belief that science already understands the nature of reality. The fundamental questions are answered, leaving only the details to be filled in. In this book (published in the US as Science Set Free), Dr Rupert Sheldrake, one of the world's most innovative scientists, shows that science is being constricted by assumptions that have hardened into dogmas.The 'scientific worldview' has become a belief system. All reality is material or physical. The world is a machine, made up of dead matter.Nature is purposeless. Consciousness is nothing but the physical activity of the brain. Free will is an illusion.God exists only as an idea in human minds, imprisoned within our skulls. Sheldrake examines these dogmas scientifically, and shows persuasively that science would be better off without them: freer, more interesting, and more fun. In The God Delusion Richard Dawkins used science to bash God, but here Rupert Sheldrake shows that Dawkins' understanding of what science can do is old-fashioned and itself a delusion.

Hands up if you’ve ever been given lesson observation feedback that you didn’t understand, didn’t agree with, or just thought was plain rubbish. If your hand is in the air, you’re in good company! When it comes to teachers receiving high-quality feedback that helps them improve their teaching, we have a serious issue in our schools. Teachers want to improve their teaching. They embrace any opportunity to learn. They want other professionals to watch them teach and to get into conversations about developing their practice. What they don’t want is to be criticised, patronised, sent down blind alleys, or left utterly confused. Those who’ve been giving feedback telling teachers to ‘differentiate more’, ‘talk less’, or ‘let students lead their own learning’ have a lot to answer for. The Teaching Delusion 3: Power Up Your Pedagogy has been written to address the issue of teachers receiving poor feedback in our schools. As a self-improvement and coaching resource, it is essential reading for all teachers and school leaders. Through a detailed exploration of 12 key elements of pedagogy, author Bruce Robertson sets out a clear, researched-informed guide to improving pedagogy in every classroom, across every school.

A longtime American foreign policy insider’s penetrating and definitive reckoning with this country’s involvement in the Middle East—and its bitter endThe culmination of almost forty years at the highest levels of policymaking and scholarship, Grand Delusion is Steven Simon’s tour de force, offering a comprehensive and deeply informed account of U.S. engagement in the Middle East. Simon begins with the Reagan administration, when American perception of the Middle East shifted from a cluster of faraway and frequently skirmishing nations to a shining, urgent opportunity for America to (in Reagan’s words) “serve the cause of world peace and the future of mankind.”Reagan fired the starting gun on decades of deepening American involvement, but as the global economy grew, bringing an increasing reliance on oil, U.S. diplomatic and military energies were ever more fatefully absorbed by the Middle East until the Obama administration and its successors finally sought to disentangle America from the region. Grand Delusion explores the motivations, strategies, and shortcomings of each presidential administration from Reagan to today, exposing a web of intertwined events—from Lebanese civil conflict to shifting Iranian domestic politics, Cold War rivalries, and Saudi Arabia’s quest for security to 9/11 and the war on terror—managed by a ...

This volume brings together recent work on the nature of belief, imagination, and delusion. Whilst philosophers of mind and epistemology employ notions of belief and imagination in their theorizing, parallel work seeking to make these notions more precise continues. Delusions are standardly taken to be bizarre beliefs occurring in the clinical population, which do not respond to evidence. The purpose of this collection of essays is to get clearer on the nature of belief and imagination, the ways in which they relate to one another, and how they might be integrated into accounts of delusional belief formation. The jumping off point is the idea that recent work in philosophy of mind and epistemology which has sought to characterize the nature of belief and imagination allows us to formulate the issues with new precision, by, for example, drawing on work concerning how imagination is involved in delusion formation, or work concerning how to properly distinguish imagination from belief.The volume also considers questions concerning imagination''s architecture, the role of metacognitive error in our mental lives, how best to understand delusional experience, and the relationship between delusion and evidence. The contributors are ideally placed to explore these issues, both individually and as a ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Ishigurův román Klára a Slunce je zpovědí vyřazené robotky jménem Klára, nadané pokročilou umělou inteligencí i pozoruhodnými pozorovacími schopnostmi. Klářiným úkolem je starat se o dospívající dítě, které si ji v obchodě vybralo, podle svého nejlepšího vědomí a svědomí. Klára ovšem coby výjimečný robot dostává výjimečný úkol – starat se o dítě vážně nemocné, na jehož nemoc není léku. V příběhu vyprávěném jazykem poznamenaným zvláštnostmi v Klářině vnímání a vyjadřování skutečnosti potvrzuje Ishiguro opět své literární mistrovství. Průzračně prostými slovy vytváří záludně složitý obraz současného spíš než budoucího lidstva. Klára v něm figuruje coby výplod civilizace, v níž obyčejný, technologicky nevylepšený lidský život stále více připomíná minulost, která bude brzy definitivně překonána, případně politováníhodný omyl. Díky rafinovanosti, s níž Ishiguro vtahuje čtenáře do Klářiny snahy pochopit, jak vlastně lidi fungují, přesahuje román meze pouhé společenské kritiky, satiry či alegorie. Podobně jako dřívější Ishigurova próza Neopouštěj mě sice i jeho nový román patří do žánru sci-fi, daleko víc však připomíná tu tragikomickou, tu melancholickou pohádku. Pohádku o lidském světě odkázaném na nelidské Slunce, v jehož proměnlivém světle se dospělí nejednou jeví dětinštější než děti a roboti lidštější než lidé.

V románové tvorbě britského nobelisty Kazua Ishigura představují Neutěšenci (The Unconsoled, 1995) význačný předěl. Po světově úspěšném Soumraku dne (The Remains of the Day, 1989, č. 1997), jemuž předcházela dvě raná díla s japonskou tematikou, Vybledlá vyhlídka s kopci (A Pale View of Hills, 1982, č. 2018) a Malíř pomíjivého světa (An Artist of the Floating World, 1986, č. 1999), se autor rozhodl opustit tvůrčí jistoty, jimiž si vydobyl přední postavení na britské literární scéně: ať už jde o postkoloniální tematiku, "tichý", ale vycizelovaný jazykový styl, realistický způsob vyprávění ve dvou prolínajících se časových rovinách či celkově melancholické ladění próz. Nově se pustil do odvážného experimentu: jeho výsledkem je osobitá románová tragikomedie, která si v mnohém nezadá s absurdní komikou Kafkova Zámku či Beckettova Čekání na Godota, případně se satirickým řízem próz Thomase Bernharda. Do nejmenované evropské metropole, připomínající složený portrét Prahy a Vídně, přijíždí světově proslulý klavírní virtuóz. Od jeho vystoupení si místní občané slibují nejen nevšední hudební zážitek, ale hlavně duchovní obrodu upadající obce.

Román Když jsme byli sirotci patří k vrcholným dílům britského nositele Nobelovy ceny za literaturu Kazua Ishigura. Autor zde v mnohém navazuje na své předchozí čtyři prózy, v nichž zkoumá nejistý vztah člověka k prožité skutečnosti a jeho věčnou náchylnost k sebeklamu. Tentokrát tak činí skrze vzpomínky a osudy Christophera Bankse, jenž poté, co se stane slavným detektivem, napne všechny své síly, aby vyřešil případ svých rodičů, kteří beze stopy zmizeli v době jeho dětství prožitém v čínské Šanghaji. Román se geograficky pohybuje mezi Dálným východem a Londýnem v době před druhou světovou válkou a zdá se, že v něm nejde o nic menšího než o záchranu světa před zlem, které ho má brzy pohltit. Je však také možné, že realita tohoto světa, již Ishiguro zobrazuje optikou archetypu geniálního soukromého detektiva, nakonec bude úplně jiná. Autor prostřednictvím odkazů ke klasickým britským autorům, ke zlatému věku anglické detektivky či Kafkovým románům vytváří na první pohled ishigurovsky nenápadnou, ale čtenářsky vzrušující fikci, která mu podprahově klade ty nejzákladnější otázky týkající se paměti, historie a mechanismů, jimiž si tvoříme příběh vlastního života.

In this debut novel from acclaimed Booker Prize-winning Kazuo Ishiguro (The Remains of the Day, Never Let Me Go), post-war Japan serves as the haunting backdrop to a subtle story of memory, suicide, and psychological trauma. Etsuko lives alone in rural England, trying to come to terms with the recent suicide of her daughter, Keiko. A visit from her other daughter Niki sends Etsuko retreating into the depths of her memory. She finds herself reliving one particular hot summer in Nagasaki, when she and her friends struggled to rebuild their lives after the horrors of the bomb and WWII. But when her thoughts turn to her strange friendship with Sachiko and Sachiko's daughter Mariko, the memories begin to take on a disturbing cast. As Etsuko examines her relationship with her daughters and struggles to cope with her guilt, the lines between the past and the present-between Etsuko's own daughter and Mariko, between reality and recollection-start to blur. Read the evocative and atmospheric novel that began Kazuo Ishiguro's illustrious literary career. Winner of the Winifred Holtby Prize in 1982, A Pale View of the Hills is still haunting readers decades later.

Druhý román Kazua Ishigura Malíř pomíjivého světa nás přivádí do Japonska po konci druhé světové války, kdy mnozí z těch, kteří zemi přivedli do zkázy, čelí historické změně a svému svědomí. Jedním z nich je i vypravěč, malíř Ono, věhlasný umělec, který své umění odevzdal do služeb válečného režimu. Ono nespáchá sebevraždu, jak to učinili mnozí jiní; namísto toho se pokouší ve své paměti zrekonstruovat svou životní cestu. Poté, co mu ve válce zemřela manželka a syn, mu totiž zbývá poslední úkol - provdat dceru, což se v poválečném Japonsku stále ještě neobejde bez důkladného prověřování rodinné historie. Jeho pohled do minulosti se ovšem vyznačuje zvláštní strategií, v níž se slučuje upřímné hledání pravdy a prozření se záměrnou manipulací, vytěsňováním, přetrvávajícím sebeklamem a melancholií. Ishiguro nám skrze svého nespolehlivého vypravěče pronikavě předvádí, jakými cestami se ubírá naše paměť a jak se ji snažíme prezentovat svému okolí, abychom si o sobě vytvořili "dobrý příběh". Malíř pomíjivého světa se tak stává komplexním obrazem plným skrytého napětí mezi realitou a vlastní fikcí - obrazem, který je v dnešní době více než aktuální.

A tak i trojice studentů, která tu utvořila milostný pakt, svědomitě respektuje, že zdejší vychovatelé vyžadují perfektní zdraví, umělecké nadání a loajální plnění nezvykle pojmenovaných úkolů. Jenže do elitního Etonu, Harrow nebo Winchesteru – natožpak do kouzelnických Bradavic – má toto venkovské učiliště daleko a připomíná spíš dům hrůzy na samotě. I s ochranitelskou vypravěčkou Kathy, vznětlivým Tommym a odbojnou Ruth se v „krásném novém světě“ za plotem areálu počítá pro něco neslýchaného. A nejhorší na jejich osudu je, že jim čísi zrůdnost namydlila schody – není jim totiž dáno nahlédnout pravdu o své existenci, jíž se zmateně řítí vstříc, dokud sám autor nestrhne závoj jejich nevinnosti…Kastovní manýry internátního vzdělávání poskytly držiteli Nobelovy ceny za literaturu za rok 2017 další skvělou příležitost, jak nabourat pochybné jistoty ostrovního způsobu života. Podezřele úhledná, místy až uhrančivá pokřivenost tragického příběhu – číhající ve všech Ishigurových románech jako morální test – ústí v naléhavou dystopii o bezútěšné budoucnosti, přešlapující dost možná už za nejbližším rohem.

Už v prvotině Vybledlá krajina s kopci otevírá držitel Nobelovy ceny za rok 2017 Kazuo Ishiguro téma, v němž se posléze stal mistrem tiché hrůzy naaranžované do úhledné ikebany. Noblesně, nevtíravě, a přece nesmlouvavě porovnává „zastydlé projevy velké sfingy“ – jak problém svého času pojmenoval kolega John Fowles – a zjišťuje, že zdánlivě prospěšná, ba důstojná uměřenost je typické japonské a britské povaze na škodu, protože ve skutečnosti strojeného člověka i jeho okolí drtí. Krátká návštěva jediné přeživší dcery přinutí stárnoucí Ecuko, ovdovělou Japonku žijící nyní na anglickém venkově, přenést se ve vzpomínkách zpět do horkého léta v rodném Nagasaki. Na sklonku druhé světové války se tu ale duše jejích spoluobčanů změnily k nepoznání. Nic už není jako za předválečného militantního režimu, po ulicích se plouží mátohy někdejších známých a jen málokdo v sobě najde sílu posunout se dál. Úslužná Ecuko si v krajině blednoucích vzpomínek vybavuje zejména měsíce před porodem prvního dítěte, kdy byla nucena přitakávat jediným žijícím příbuzným: panovačnému prvnímu choti a jeho stejně manipulátorskému otci.

But then as he traverses a landscape by turns eerie and comical - and always strangely malleable, as a dream might be - he comes steadily to realise he is facing the most crucial performance of his life. Ishiguro's extraordinary and original study of a man whose life has accelerated beyond his control was met on publication by consternation, vilification - and the highest praise.

HOW CAN WE KNOW WE’LL GO TO HEAVEN? A recent poll indicated that for every American who believes he or she is going to hell, there are 120 who believe they’re going to heaven. This optimism stands in stark contrast to Jesus Christ’s words written in the Bible: “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few” (Matthew 7:13–14). The truth is that according to the Bible we don’t automatically go to heaven. In fact, hell―not heaven―is our default destination. Unless our sin problem is solved once and for all, we can’t enter heaven. That’s the bad news. But once that’s straight in our minds we’re ready to hear the good news of Jesus Christ.

In The Net Delusion: How Not to Liberate the World Evgeny Morozov argues that our utopian, internet-centric thinking holds devastating consequences for the future of democracy. We were promised that the internet would set us free. From the Middle East''s ''twitter revolution'' to Facebook activism, technology would spread democracy and bring us together as never before. We couldn''t have been more wrong. In The Net Delusion Evgeny Morozov shows why internet freedom is an illusion.

A fascinating examination of delusional thinking and how it might benefit health, relationships, and wellbeing.Although reason and rationality are our friends in almost all contexts, in some cases people are better off putting reason aside. In a number of very important situations, we benefit by not seeing the world as it is, and by not behaving like logic-driven machines. Sometimes we know we aren''t making sense, and yet we are compelled to act against reason; in other cases, our delusions are so much a part of normal human experience that we are unaware of them. As intelligent as we are, much of what has helped humans succeed as a species is not our prodigious brain power but something much more basic. The Uses of Delusion is about aspects of human nature that are not altogether rational but, nonetheless, help us achieve our social and personal goals. Psychologist Stuart Vyse presents a lively, accessible exploration of the psychological concepts behind "useful delusions", fleshing out how delusional thinking may play a role in love and relationships, illness and loss, and personality and behavior. Along the way Vyse draws on the work of William James, Daniel Kahneman, and Joan Didion - who wrote ... Unknown localization key: "more"

As it promised, technology has produced an explosion of information. Unfortunately, much of that information consists of misinformation and seemingly conflicting facts. Our innate capacity to process all these purported facts, to distinguish fact from fiction and truth from lies, has become a nearly impossible challenge. Yet, it is a challenge that we must meet because actual, verifiable facts and truth do still matter. Pandemic of Delusion is a very readable book that takes you on a wild journey through all of the ways that beliefs are spread and how they break through our defences to become delusions. It offers practical advice to resist misinformation and to recognise fallacious arguments. And beyond helping you to merely immunize yourself from delusional thinking, Pandemic of Delusion offers an inspirational vision of lives and societies that embrace the wonder of the universe as seen through science and fact-based thinking.

One of the most celebrated writers of our time gives us his first cycle of short fiction: five brilliantly etched, interconnected stories in which music is a vivid and essential character. A once-popular singer, desperate to make a comeback, turning from the one certainty in his life . . . A man whose unerring taste in music is the only thing his closest friends value in him . . . A struggling singer-songwriter unwittingly involved in the failing marriage of a couple he's only just met . . . A gifted, underappreciated jazz musician who lets himself believe that plastic surgery will help his career . . . A young cellist whose tutor promises to "unwrap” his talent . . . Passion or necessity-or the often uneasy combination of the two-determines the place of music in each of these lives. And, in one way or another, music delivers each of them to a moment of reckoning: sometimes comic, sometimes tragic, sometimes just eluding their grasp. An exploration of love, need, and the ineluctable force of the past, Nocturnes reveals these individuals to us with extraordinary precision and subtlety, and with the arresting psychological and emotional detail that has marked all ...

Pohřbený obr je nejnovější próza držitele Nobelovy ceny za literaturu za rok 2017. Děj románu zasadil autor do počátků raného středověku, kdy se Británie, kterou dávno opustili Římané, nezadržitelně mění v trosky. Král Artuš jistě vykonal pro smír na ostrově své, ale i on už se odebral do propadliště dějin a neklidnou zemí bloumají různá individua, včetně těch nadpřirozených. Příběh začíná rozhodnutím starých manželů Axla a Beatrice vydat se krajem mlhy a deště v naději, že se shledají se synem, kterého léta neviděli. Očekávají mnohá nebezpečí, ale netuší, že jim tato cesta odhalí dávno zapomenutá temná místa jejich vzájemné lásky. Kazuo Ishiguro nabízí podmanivý, hluboce jímavý příběh o ztracených vzpomínkách, lásce, pomstě, válce a síle zapomnění.

Někdy se říká, že praví majordomové se vyskytují pouze v Anglii. V ostatních zemích mají - i když jsou nazýváni různě - jenom sluhy. Já se k tomuto názoru přikláním. Evropané nemohou být majordomy, protože svou přirozeností nejsou schopni potlačovat city tak, jak to dokážou jen příslušníci anglické rasy," říká o sobě majordom Stevens, vypravěč románu Sou- mrak dne, který celý svůj život zasvětil oddané službě na panství Darlington Hall. A jeho charakteristika trefně vystihuje především jeho samého: jeho loajalitu vůči pánovi i ochotu nevidět znepokojivé dění na panství předčí právě jen jeho schopnost potlačovat city, včetně těch milostných, jejichž adresátkou byla po dlouhá léta společného zaměstnání hospodyně slečna Ken- tonová. Vytěsněné city i tužby se ovšem rády vracejí, a nejinak tomu je i u Stevense: během šestidenní dovolené se mu jeho minulost zpřítomní s nečekanou silou - a on se s ní musí chtě nechtě vyrovnat. Román Soumrak dne, oceněný prestižní Booker Prize, je obec- ně považován za vrcholné dílo Kazua Ishigura; k jeho nesmírné popularitě nepochybně přispělo i mistrné filmové zpracování s Anthony Hopkinsem a Emmou Thompsonovou.

*Kazuo Ishiguro’s new novel Klara and the Sun is now available*In Nocturnes, Kazuo Ishiguro explores ideas of love, music and the passing of time. From the piazzas of Italy to the ‘hush-hush floor’ of an exclusive Hollywood Hotel, the characters we encounter range from young dreamers to cafe musicians to faded stars, all of them at some moment of reckoning. Gentle, intimate and witty, this quintet is marked by a haunting theme – the struggle to keep alive a sense of life’s romance, even as one gets older, relationships founder and youthful hopes recede.‘Each of these stories is heartbreaking in its own way, but some have moments of great comedy, and they all require a level of attention that, typically, Ishiguro’s writing rewards.’ Observer ‘[They] come up on you quietly, but then haunt you for days … These little pieces could only be the work of a great composer.’ Evening Standard‘A fine and moving collection of stories, displaying his unique combination of the sad, the stoic and the consoling. It’s about failure, but it dignifies failure, and with it, the human condition.’ Margaret Drabble, Guardian

Believers know that when we die we enter heaven and will spend eternity there with God and the saints who have gone before us. But what actually happens in heaven? What are we going to be doing there? Won''t it get boring at some point?According to Scripture, a large part of our experience of heaven will be a continual revealing of God''s glory. Not just his glory in the moment, but during all of time. The mysteries of providence, the hidden movements of God throughout history, and the forgotten and unnoted works of even the most obscure of God''s people will be unveiled so that we can see how wise, loving, gracious, and powerful our God is. And though we will experience perfection in heaven, we will never be omniscient, which means we will always be learning more about God''s glory, inspiring us to return joyful praise and thanksgiving.If your vision of heaven has been limited to clouds and harps and angels, it''s time to expand that view with the truth found in this biblically based look at the afterlife.
