Teoretik Karel Teige ve dvacátých letech minulého století použil slovní metaforu "divadlo ulice" pro pulzující, dynamický vizuálně-akustický děj, který se tou dobou odehrával v centrech větších měst. Měl tím na mysli nejen všudypřítomný dopravní lomoz a ruch, ale i novou urbánní ikonografii, kterou tvořily vývěsní štíty, portály obchodů, osvětlené výkladní skříně, fasádní velkoplošná reklama a blikající neony.Výkladní skříně s rafinovaně aranžovaným zbožím neušly pozornosti surrealistů, kteří obdivovali jejich absurdní a vynalézavé sestavy, světelné iluminace byly blízké experimentům konstruktivistů, reklamy a nápisy vycházely z moderní typografie a osvědčených postupů, jak získat pozornost kolemjdoucích a "flanérů".Pro pochopení meziválečného modernismu představuje ono pomíjivé "divadlo ulice" klíčové téma, přesto se tato oblast nestala nikterak rozšířeným námětem pro odborné studie.Tato kniha se snaží najít průsečík mezi obchodem a uměním, mezi "nízkým" a "vysokým", mezi popkulturou, komerční propagací a nezávislou tvorbou. Publikace obsahuje pět odborných studií, které reklamní praktiky prezentují v kontextu výtvarného umění, architektury, fotografie, filmu a nových technologií spjatých s elektrifikací měst. Místně a časově se studie soustřeďují na rámec Československa vymezený lety 1918-1938 s výběrovými odkazy na evropské relace.Textovou část doplňuje bohatá obrazová dokumentace vycházející z rešerší dobových periodik, archivů, soukromých i veřejných sbírek.

Designéři a architekti Michal Froněk a Jan Němeček založili společné studio - nazvané Olgoj Chorchoj - v roce 1990. Od roku 2000 jsou vedoucími Ateliéru produktového designu na Vysoké škole uměleckoprůmyslové v Praze. V českém i globálním kontextu Olgoj Chorchoj patří ke špičce ve svém oboru. Kniha představuje profesní dráhu Olgoj Chorchoj v oblasti designu, architektury, výstavnictví formou autorských esejů a kompletním soupisem jejich dosavadních realizací. Produkce Olgoj Chorchoj mezi lety 1990-2016 je symptomatická pro představení širšího rámce postkomunistické transformace (v oblasti designérské praxe, uměleckého školního vzdělávání, tovární výroby a restartu kapitalistického tržního hospodářství). V rovině dějin a teorie designu je aktivita Olgoj Chorchoj pozoruhodná počáteční inklinací k emotivnímu postmodernismu a pozdějším příklonem ke strohým, logickým principům neomodernismu. Publikace vychází u příležitosti retrospektivní výstavy konané v Uměleckoprůmyslovém muzeu Moravské galerie v Brně.

Across the centuries, as people have considered their individual and social needs, many solutions for transforming human existence have been offered — psychological, political and religious. However, the New Testament claims that genuine and lasting change can only be found in Jesus Christ. The transformation he makes possible is spiritual, moral and physical, bringing us ultimately to share in his resurrection from death in a new creation. Foundational to this teaching is the promise of 'a new covenant' in Jeremiah 31:31-34 and in parallel predictions in Ezekiel and Isaiah. In this valuable new study, David Peterson expounds Jeremiah's oracle and its significant influence on the way New Testament writers understand transformation in Christ. The definitive forgiveness of sins achieved by his sacrificial death brings a new knowledge or experience of God and his grace, which transforms hearts and minds, leading to a new devotion to God and obedience to his will. In this way, the people of the New Covenant are established in an eternal relationship with God and a renewed community that embraces every nation. In terms of the Bible's teaching as a whole, the New Covenant fulfils and perfects the covenant first established by God with Abraham and ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The "fifth season" saga of the Star Trek: Enterprise TV series continues with this action-packed original novel! Admiral Jonathan Archer has barely settled in as Starfleet Chief of Staff when new crises demand his attention. The Starfleet task force commanded by Captain Malcolm Reed continues its fight against the deadly Ware technology, but one of the task force ships is captured, its Andorian crew imprisoned by an interstellar Partnership that depends on the Ware for its prosperity. Worse, the Partnership has allied with a renegade Klingon faction, providing it with Ware drone fleets to mount an insurrection against the Klingon Empire. Archer sends Captain T''Pol and Endeavour to assist Reed in his efforts to free the captured officers. But he must also keep his eye on the Klingon border, for factions within the Empire blame Starfleet for provoking the Ware threat and seek to take revenge. Even the skill and dedication of the captains under Archer''s command may not be enough to prevent the outbreak of the Federation''s first war! ™, ®, & © 2016 CBS Studios, Inc.

'I am tired of submitting my will to the caprices of others-of resigning my own judgement in deference to those to whom I owe no duty, and for whom I feel no respect.'The unfinished fictions collected here are the novels and other writing that Jane Austen did not publish. The protagonist of the earliest story is Lady Susan, a sexual predator and a brilliant and manipulative sociopath. The Watsons, a tale of riches to rags, is set in a village deep in mud and misery where the Watson sisters waste away, day after dull day, waiting for the suitors who never appear.Sanditon, the novel interrupted by the author's death, is a topical satire onthe niche marketing campaign waged by investors in the latest seaside resort, the fictional Sanditon, situated on England's over-supplied south coast. If The Watsons shares the disturbed life of a Chekhov short story, Sanditon's cast of eccentrics anticipates the zany world of Dickens.

A compelling history of the Ptolemies, the decline of Egypt, and the rising power of the Roman Empire  The Ptolemaic era, Egypt’s last and one of its longest dynasties, was in many ways a gilded age. Its early rulers restored and even expanded Egyptian power. Over a span of 300 years the period was witness to intellectual enlightenment, imaginative state-building, and some of the most memorable characters in ancient history, including Alexander the Great and Cleopatra VII.  But these Macedonian Greek pharaohs embarked on ruinous warfare, faced rebellion, and descended into murderous family feuds. Increasingly reliant on the dizzying rise of Roman power, Ptolemaic Egypt was finally annexed by Augustus in 30 BCE. How did such an ancient civilization come to this?  Exploring the lives of the Ptolemaic pharaohs, de la Bédoyère reveals the jealousy, greed, and murderous ambition in their Egypt and the legendary city of Alexandria, their capital. This is a lively, accessible account of Ancient Egypt’s last days—and of the new power rising in its place.

The story of Catholic Emancipation begins with the violent Anti-Catholic Gordon Riots in 1780, fuelled by the reduction in Penal Laws against the Roman Catholics harking back to the sixteenth century. Some fifty years later, the passing of the Emancipation Bill was hailed as a 'bloodless revolution'. Had the Irish Catholics been a 'millstone', as described by an English aristocrat, or were they the prime movers? While the English Catholic aristocracy and the Irish peasants and merchants approached the Catholic Question in very different ways, they manifestly shared the same objective. Antonia Fraser brings colour and humour to the vivid drama with its huge cast of characters: George III, who opposed Emancipation on the basis of the Coronation Oath; his son, the indulgent Prince of Wales, who was enamoured with the Catholic Maria Fitzherbert before the voluptuous Lady Conyngham; Wellington and the 'born Tory' Peel vying for leadership; 'roaring' Lord Winchilsea; the heroic Daniel O'Connell. Expertly written and deftly argued, THE KING AND THE CATHOLICS is also a distant mirror of our times, reflecting the political issues arising from religious intolerance.

On the morning of her thirtieth birthday, Dr. Trish Russo, a math professor at Cascadia University, discovers a disembodied but living infant head on her dresser.

At the university, her colleagues are mortified, not of the head itself, but that Trish has brought it into the office with her. She is soon put on leave and hopes that visiting her parents might provide some solace and advice on what she should do with the head. But no matter where she turns, Trish finds no help and is instead vilified for not knowing what to do with this impossible thing that has happened to her.The Head is a bizarre journey through trauma, bad relationships, and toxic workplace culture.
