The town of St Andrews in Fife has much to celebrate. Its cathedral was the largest church built in Scotland and the bishops, and later archbishops, played an important role in ruling medieval Scotland. Scotland’s first university was established in St Andrews, which began teaching religious studies in 1410. The university has been the choice for many famous people and is also responsible for many of the town’s traditions. The town was a favourite of Mary, Queen of Scots, who owned a home in St Andrews. In 1663, astrologer and mathematician James Gregory published a design for the first reflecting telescope in St Andrews, and in 1673 Gregory laid the first Meridian line, which earned St Andrews the title ‘the place where time began’. St Andrews is best known, however, as the home of golf. The game had been played and developed in the town for centuries before the formation of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club in 1754, which is considered the headquarters of golf. The town is also famous for its long, sandy beaches, which attracted filmmakers who shot the opening sequence of Chariots of Fire on the West Sands.

'I beg as soon as you get Fielding's Joseph Andrews, I fear in Ridicule of your Pamela and of Virtue in the Notion of Don Quixote's Manner, you would send it to me by the very first Coach.' (George Cheyne in a letter to Samuel Richardson, February 1742) Both Joseph Andrews (1742) and Shamela (1741) were prompted by the success of Richardson's Pamela (1740), of which Shamela is a splendidly bawdy parody. But in Shamela Fielding also demonstrates his concern for the corruption of contemporary society, politics, religion, morality, and taste. The same themes - together with a presentation of love as charity, as friendship, and in its sexual taste - are present in Joseph Andrews, Fielding'sfirst novel.It is a work of considerable literary sophistication and satirical verve, but its appeal lies also in its spirit of comic affirmation, epitomized in the celebrated character of Parson Adams. This revised and expanded edition follows the text of Joseph Andrews established by Martin C. Battestin for the definitive Wesleyan Edition of Fielding's works.The text of Shamela is based on the first edition, and two substantial appendices reprint the preliminary matter from Conyers Middleton's Life of Cicero and the second edition of Richardson's ...

Hníka a i QR kód s originální skladbou M. Pavlíčka, texty historiků a dokumenty z roku 1968 a fotografie z vernisáže v Armádním muzeu. "Je hanba, že po 55 letech neexistuje žádný památník, který by byl naším výrazem respektu k obětem invaze v roce 1968" říká v rozhovoru malíř a sochař Jiří Sozanský, známý svými díly, která se často vztahují k temnějším stránkám české historie (Respekt 35). Umělec se proto rozhodl na vlastní náklady vytvořit 5,5 m vysoký bronzový monument, na kterém je 137 jmen lidí, kteří zahynuli v důsledku invaze do konce roku 1968. Jména obětí nesměla být za minulého režimu nejen připomínána, ale dokonce jejich pozůstalí byli šikanováni a bylo jim vyhrožováno, pokud budou hovořit o tom, jak a proč jejich nejbližší zemřeli.
