Howard Hughes - Peter Brown, Pat Broeske

Remembered primarily as an eccentric and deluded billionaire, Howard Hughes was once America''s golden boy, a celebrated aviator and Hollywood legend who romanced hundreds of beautiful women. The scope of his life made him one of the most influential figures in America. Where previous biographies have concentrated on Hughes''s business empire, Howard Hughes: The Untold Story unveils the full story of the tycoon, tracing his bold efforts to reshape Hollywood, his devastating health problems, his erratic behaviour during his last decades and his tangle of steamy relationships with stars such as Katharine Hepburn, Bette Davis, Ava Gardner and Ginger Rogers.Drawing on hundreds of exclusive interviews and documents charting, among many other revelations, his troubled family relationships, drug addiction, secret harem of teenage mistresses and the part he played in the Watergate scandal, Howard Hughes: The Untold Story follows Hughes''s transformation from lover and business innovator into reclusive captive of his own fears.

Journeys of the Mind - Peter Brown

A beautifully written personal account of the discovery of late antiquity by one of the world’s most influential and distinguished historiansThe end of the ancient world was long regarded by historians as a time of decadence, decline, and fall. In his career-long engagement with this era, the widely acclaimed and pathbreaking historian Peter Brown has shown, however, that the “neglected half-millennium” now known as late antiquity was in fact crucial to the development of modern Europe and the Middle East. In Journeys of the Mind, Brown recounts his life and work, describing his efforts to recapture the spirit of an age. As he and other scholars opened up the history of the classical world in its last centuries to the wider world of Eurasia and northern Africa, they discovered previously overlooked areas of religious and cultural creativity as well as foundational institution-building. A respect for diversity and outreach to the non-European world, relatively recent concerns in other fields, have been a matter of course for decades among the leading scholars of late antiquity. Documenting both his own intellectual development and the emergence of a new and influential field of study, Brown describes his childhood and education in Ireland, his university ...

The World of Late Antiquity - Peter Brown

A remarkable study in social and cultural change that explains how and why the Late Antique world, between c. 150 and c. 750 AD, came to differ from 'Classical civilization'. The first century AD was one of momentous events: the end of the Roman empire, the rise of Christianity across western Europe and the disappearance of Persia from the Near East; an era in which the most deep-rooted of ancient institutions disappeared for all time creating divergent legacies which are still present. Renowned historian Peter Brown examines these changes and the reactions to them, to show that the period of Late Antiquity was one of outstanding new beginnings and far-reaching impacts. The result is a lucid answer to a crucial question in world history; how the exceptionally homogenous Mediterranean world of the first century AD became divided into the three mutually estranged societies of the Middle Ages: Catholic Western Europe, Byzantium and the Islamic world. Brown's remarkable study in social and cultural transformation explains how and why the Late Antique world, came to differ from the 'Classical civilization' of the Greeks and Romans.

Augustin z Hipponu - Peter Brown

Nejznámější Brownovou prací je nepochybně životopis jednoho z nejvýznamnějších křesťanských myslitelů - sv. Augustina. Ačkoli Brown tuto biografii napsal již na konci 60. let, přesto právě ona nadále představuje nejkomplexnější pojednání o katolickém biskupovi, jenž položil pevné základy pozdně antickému křesťanství. Brown svoji práci několikrát zrevidoval a poslední podoby se jí dostalo v roce 2000. V něm reflektoval nejnovější výzkumy a naznačil, jak se jeho obraz sv. Augustina pod vlivem nových pramenných objevů liší od dnešního pojetí. Augustinův životopis Brown staví jako klasickou biografiii, jež se striktně drží chronologického rámce. To mu umožňuje podrobně zachytit genezi Augustinových náboženských, nábožensko-politických i teologických představ. Vydání knihy podpořilo hlavní město Praha.

A History of Love and Hate in 21 Statues - Peter Hughes

From antiquity to the present day, this book offers a fascinating insight into the histories, movements and conflicts which have come to shape our world, viewed through the stories of the destruction of 21 statues. Confederate soldiers hacked to pieces. A British slave trader dumped in the river. An Aboriginal warrior twice beheaded. A Chinese philosopher consumed by fire. A Greek goddess left to rot in the desert… Statues stand as markers of collective memory connecting us to a shared sense of belonging. When societies fracture into warring tribes, we convince ourselves that the past is irredeemably evil. So, we tear down our statues. But what begins with the destruction of statues, ends with the killing of people. This remarkable book is a compelling history of love and hate spanning every continent, religion and era, told through the destruction of 21 statues. Peter Hughes’ original approach, blending philosophy, psychology and history, explores how these symbols of our identity give us more than an understanding of our past. In the wars that rage around them, they may also hold the key to our future. The 21 statues are Hatshepsut (Ancient Egypt), Nero (Suffolk, UK), Athena (Syria), Buddhas of Bamiyan (Afghanistan), Hecate ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The menu takes in prime fish such as Dover and lemon sole, brill and salmon, with seasonal specials such as Esk sea trout with lovage and girolles, roast lobster with sweetbreads and salt baked bass. Old favourites include lobster thermidor and Sheekey''s famous fish pie.J Sheekey Fish immortalises recipes from this renowned kitchen.

Tom Brown's Schooldays & Tom Brown at Oxford - Thomas Hughes

Lively and mischievous, idle and brave, Tom Brown is both the typical boy of his time and the perennial hero celebrated by authors as diverse as Henry Fielding (in Tom Jones) and Alec Waugh (in The Loom of Youth).The book describes Tom''s time at Rugby School from his first football match, through his troubled adolescence when he is savagely bullied by the unspeakable Flashman, to his departure for a wider world as a confident young man. This classic tale of a boy''s schooldays under the benevolent eye of the renowned Dr Arnold still retains the appeal for which it was acclaimed on its first publication in 1857.In its less well-known sequel, Tom Brown at Oxford, we follow our hero to St Ambrose''s College, and, in sharing his undergraduate experiences, gain a vivid impression of university life in the mid nineteenth century.

Nauč se to! - Peter C. Brown, Henry L. Roediger III, Mark A. McDaniel - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Nauč se to! je návod, jak se efektivně porvat s učením a pamatováním si – a pokud jste pedagog nebo lektor, tak i s tím, jak svoje znalosti předávat co nejúčinněji. Schválně, vzpomenete si, kdy vám naposledy někdo radil s tím, jak se vlastně učit? A kolik vám tehdy bylo? Většina z nás používá při studiu zastaralé kontraproduktivní metody. Díky novým poznatkům psychologie a dalších věd přišel čas se jich zbavit. Nejrozšířenější postupy, jako je podtrhávání v textu a jeho biflování, v nás sice vyvolávají dojem, že jsme si látku výborně osvojili, ale už po krátké době z ní umíme pouhý zlomek. Hlouběji a trvaleji si ji osvojíme díky postupům, které nejsou příliš intuitivní. Jde třeba o přerušované učení (při němž látku pozapomeneme a poté se ji pokoušíme vybavit), generování (snahu vyřešit úkol předtím, než se dozvíme řešení) nebo prokládané učení (při kterém se nesnažíme jedno téma dokonale zvládnout naráz, ale záměrně ho střídáme s jinými). Své rady autoři opírají o věrohodné vědecké studie a dokumentují je na pozoruhodných životních příbězích. Poslechněte si Nauč se to!, patříte-li mezi: - studenty vysokých i středních škol a chcete být při učení produktivnější - učitele a rodiče, kterým záleží na trvalém osvojení ...

Smallcreep's Day - Peter Currell Brown

When factory worker Pinquean Smallcreep, who has slotted a certain type of slot into a certain type of pulley for many years, packs his sandwiches and sets out on a journey to investigate what it is he is producing, his discoveries become increasingly more bizarre and disturbing. Peter Currell Brown''s brilliantly surreal satire of automation and alienation is as exhilarating and unforgettable today as when it was first published.

Ebenezer Howard - Frances Knight

Ebenezer Howard (1850-1928) is famous worldwide for founding the Garden City movement, and he continues to be frequently cited by planners and theorists. When he was dying, he urged his prospective biographer to remember that ''the spiritual dimension'' had always been central to his life and work. He wanted this to be prominently brought out in any biography. Almost a century after his death, Ebenezer Howard: Inventor of the Garden City is the first book that does justice to that wish. Frances Knight has written a very readable biography, the first since the 1980s, with a properly contextualized analysis of Howard''s religious views. Shaped in the world of London Congregationalism, he became a keen seeker after unity and peace. He grafted new religious ideas, particularly from spiritualism, and later from Theosophy, into his biblically-informed, Protestant faith. Prone to spiritual epiphanies, he believed that he had been raised up to preach the ''gospel of the garden city'' and to tackle the housing crisis by beginning to build the New Jerusalem in the Hertfordshire countryside. Although he sometimes appeared naïve, he was astute, and highly skilled at combining different, and sometimes conflicting, ideas in a way that built consensus and gained support ...

Touch of Death - Robert E. Howard - audiokniha

Audiokniha: The eighth step into the Darkness takes place on the American side of the Atlantic. It features two short stories by a single author – Texas native Robert Ervin Howard. Sadly enough, Howard died at age 30, but he still managed to create several immortal heroes – and was one of the founders of the now popular genre of heroic fantasy (along with J. R. R. Tolkien). R. E. Howard created Conan the Barbarian, Red Sonja, and Solomon Kane. Together with H. P. Lovecraft and others, R. E. Howard was one of the most prominent purveyors of the Cthulhu Mythos (the best-known contemporary author of this fictional mythology is Stephen King). The Horror from the Mound, and The Fearsome Touch of Death, are excellent even by today’s standards – and the stories are further highlighted by incredible vocal performances, stunning music, and superb graphics on the cover.
