Billy Budd, Bartleby, and Other Stories - Herman Melville

A new, definitive edition of Herman Melville’s virtuosic short stories—American classics wrought with scorching fury, grim humor, and profound beauty  Though best-known for his epic masterpiece Moby-Dick, Herman Melville also left a body of short stories arguably unmatched in American fiction. In the sorrowful tragedy of Billy Budd, Sailor; the controlled rage of Benito Cereno; and the tantalizing enigma of Bartleby, the Scrivener; Melville reveals himself as a singular storyteller of tremendous range and compelling power. In these stories, Melville cuts to the heart of race, class, capitalism, and globalism in America, deftly navigating political and social issues that resonate as clearly in our time as they did in Melville’s. Also including The Piazza Tales in full, this collection demonstrates why Melville stands not only among the greatest writers of the nineteenth century, but also as one of our greatest contemporaries.  This Penguin Classics edition features the Reading Text of Billy Budd, Sailor, as edited from a genetic study of the manuscript by Harrison Hayford and Merton M. Sealts, Jr., and the authoritative Northwestern-Newberry text of The Piazza Tales.  For more than sixty-five years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,500 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

You Are More Than Your Body weaves together clinical expertise, personal stories, and practical, evidence-based tools to help readers with chronic health conditions better cope with pain, fatigue, depression, and the emotional vulnerability that comes with living in a world not designed for our bodies. The methods in this book synthesize a wide range of emotional regulation skills and coping techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness practices, all of which Dr. Caspari has successfully used with her own clients.

Moby Dick; or, the Whale - Herman Melville

American author Herman Melville published his first novel, Moby-Dick; or, The Whale, in 1851. The story of Ahab, the captain of the whaling ship Pequod, and his irrational pursuit for vengeance against Moby Dick, the huge white sperm whale that wounded him on a previous journey, is told in the book by the sailor Ishmael. Moby-Dick, a work that contributed to the literature of the American Renaissance, had received mixed reviews upon publication, was a commercial flop, and was out of print when the author passed away in 1891. It wasn't until the 20th century, on the centennial of its author's birth in 1919, that it gained recognition as a "Great American Novel." William Faulkner expressed regret for not having written the novel himself, while D. H. Lawrence praised it as "the best book of the sea ever written" and "one of the oddest and most wonderful books in the world." One of the most well-known starting lines in all of literature is "Call me Ishmael." Moby-Dick was started by Melville in February 1850, and it was finished a year later than he had intended, in 18 months. Melville drew on his observations as a common sailor between 1841 and 1844, especially those of whalers, as well as extensive reading in the literature on whaling.

TypeeA Romance of the South Seas (Edition2024) - Herman Melville

Typee: A Romance of the South Seas by Herman Melville explores themes of freedom, cultural conflict, and the clash between civilization and primitive societies. The novel centers around a sailor who, after fleeing a whaling ship, finds himself among the Typee people in the Marquesas Islands. Initially fascinated by their idyllic way of life, the protagonist soon begins to question the true nature of their customs.The book contrasts Western notions of civilization with the seemingly simple, but complex, lifestyle of the islanders. Through the protagonist's experiences, Melville examines how cultural misunderstandings can lead to tension and fear, even in what initially appears to be a paradise. The themes of captivity and escape also play a significant role, as the protagonist navigates his feelings of entrapment within the Typee community and his desire for freedom. Ultimately, Typee delves into the complexities of human nature and the challenges of understanding and accepting different cultures.

Mozek, duše a tělo - Johann Caspar Rüegg

To, že strukturální změny v mozku, např. po zranění nebo při degenerativním onemocnění, ovlivňují naše chování, vědí vědci již poměrně dlouho. Ale jak naopak mozkovou strukturu ovlivňují zkušenosti s bolestí, strachem, depresí či dětskými traumaty? Jakým způsobem mají změny vztahů nebo proces psychoterapie či psychosomatické medicíny za následek neuronální restrukturalizaci? A jak může mozek a psychika ovlivnit zdraví našeho těla, zejména funkci srdce a krevního oběhu, funkci obranyschopnosti organismu proti infekcím a malignitám či funkci žláz s vnitřní sekrecí? Těmto a podobným otázkám složitých interakcí psychických a tělesných procesů se věnuje právě tato publikace. Vědecky fundovaná kniha, která v němčině vyšla již v pátém, aktualizovaném a rozšířeném vydání, začíná každé téma od skutečně základních poznatků, takže všechny neurofyziologické a biochemické pochody a jejich vztah k behaviorálním jevům a psychosomatickým poruchám je snadno pochopitelný a srozumitelný. Kniha je věnovaná aktuálním psychosomatickým oblastem: chronické bolesti, kardiovaskulárnímu systému, psychoendokrinologii a stresu, imunitnímu systému, vztahu neuronální plasticity a psychoterapie. Prof. Dr. med. Dr. phil. Johann Caspar Rüegg byl švýcarský lékař v oboru fyziologie a autor několika publikací o psychosomatice.

Bílá velryba - Herman Melville - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Píše se rok 1814. V přístavním městečku New Bedford se chystá mladý Izmael na moře. Dá se najmout na velrybářskou loď, jejíž kapitán Achab kdysi přišel o nohu v boji s bílou velrybou zvanou Moby Dick. Brzy se ukáže, že cílem nové výpravy není lov, ale pomsta za každou cenu. Herman Melville (1819-1891) Americký prozaik a básník, jeden z největších klasiků americké literatury. Narodil se v bohaté rodině, ale otcův obchodní úpadek a jeho smrt zanechaly jeho rodinu bez prostředků. Chlapec byl nucen doslova bojovat o přežití. Stále však toužil dál cestovat. Stal se členem posádky velrybářské lodi, ovšem pobouřen surovým zacházením uprchl v tropických Marquesách na ostrov Nuku Hiva, kde byl měsíc zajatcem lidojedského kmene v údolí Taipi. Podařilo se mu uprchnout na australské velrybářské lodi a přes Tahiti a Havajské ostrovy se vrátil s americkou válečnou fregatou do Bostonu. Prožitá dobrodružství přivedla Hermana Melvilla k spisovatelské činnosti. Po prvních spisovatelských úspěších se setkal s nepochopením právě u svých vrcholných děl a upadl v zapomenutí. Posledních dvacet let svého života pracoval jako celní dozorce v newyorském přístavu. Miroslav Středa (1945) Český divadelní a filmový herec a dabér. Vyučil se seřizovačem textilních strojů a pracoval v továrně. Jeden z mistrů, zanícený divadelník, ho přivedl do ochotnického souboru a nakonec se přihlásil ke studiu herectví na JAMU, kterou absolvoval v roce 1968. Deset let strávil ve Státním divadle v Brně, potom přešel do Činoherního klubu v Praze, kde zůstal natrvalo. Kromě divadelních rolí je rozsáhlá jeho filmografie, která čítá sice desítky titulů pro film i televizi, ale uplatnil se především ve vedlejších až epizodních rolích. Další výraznou aktivitou je pole dabingu. Jeho hlas zazněl z řady známých filmů i seriálů. Neméně významná je také jeho práce pro rozhlas.

Bílá velryba (rozhlasová hra) - Herman Melville - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Řekne-li se Bílá velryba, většinu z nás napadne Moby Dick. Tak nazval Herman Melville onoho tvora, který je ztělesněním přírody a současně jakýmsi symbolem tajemství, které není dáno člověku odhalit. Obsáhlý román amerického spisovatele - mimochodem obsahuje celkem 135 kapitol - je starý více než 150 let a řadí se ke klenotům světové literatury.Právě pro svou obsáhlost a složitou kompoziční stavbu jako by se vzpíral rozhlasovému zpracování. Vždyť šedesátiminutová nahrávka představuje přibližně jen třicet stran scénáře. Jak na tak malém prostoru zachovat původní autorovo poselství?To byla otázka, se kterou se potýkali všichni tvůrci nové rozhlasové inscenace. Od počátku bylo jasné, že původní vyznění literární předlohy musí zůstat zachováno. Scénář pro to vytvořil dobrý základ, ale pořád to byl jenom základ. Je paradoxem, že jeho autor Petr Mandel, který složil scénickou hudbu k desítkám, možná i stovkám rozhlasových her a pohádek, byl jako hudebník v tomto případě skoupý. Jak on, tak režisér Vladimír Rusko měli totiž jasnou představu - žádná hudba, žádná stylizace! Právě pro vytvoření ojedinělé atmosféry byly při realizaci použity výhradně konkrétní zvuky natočené přímo pro tento účel v exteriéru nebo ve studiu a částečně byly využity také některé reálné zvukové kulisy z rozhlasového archivu.

Moby-Dick - Herman Melville

"It is the horrible texture of a fabric that should be woven of ships' cables and hawsers. A Polar wind blows through it, and birds of prey hover over it."So Melville wrote of his masterpiece, one of the greatest works of imagination in literary history. In part, Moby-Dick is the story of an eerily compelling madman pursuing an unholy war against a creature as vast and dangerous and unknowable as the sea itself. But more than just a novel of adventure, more than an encyclopaedia of whaling lore and legend, the book can be seen as part of its author's lifelong meditation on America. Written with wonderfully redemptive humour, Moby-Dick is also a profound inquiry into character, faith, and the nature of perception.This edition of Moby-Dick, which reproduces the definitive text of the novel, includes invaluable explanatory notes, along with maps, illustrations, and a glossary of nautical terms.

Moby Dick - Herman Melville

Moby Dick is the story of Captain Ahab’s quest to avenge the whale that ‘reaped’ his leg. The quest is an obsession and the novel is a diabolical study of how a man becomes a fanatic.But it is also a hymn to democracy. Bent as the crew is on Ahab’s appalling crusade, it is equally the image of a co-operative community at work: all hands dependent on all hands, each individual responsible for the security of each.Among the crew is Ishmael, the novel’s narrator, ordinary sailor, and extraordinary reader. Digressive, allusive, vulgar, transcendent, the story Ishmael tells is above all an education: in the practice of whaling, in the art of writing. Expanding to equal his ‘mighty theme’ – not only the whale but all things sublime – Melville breathes in the world’s great literature. Moby Dick is the greatest novel ever written by an American.

Moby Dick - Herman Melville

With an Introduction and Notes by David Herd, Lecturer in English and American Literature at the University of Kent at Canterbury and co-editor of ‘Poetry Review’.Moby Dick is the story of Captain Ahab’s quest to avenge the whale that ‘reaped’ his leg. The quest is an obsession and the novel is a diabolical study of how a man becomes a fanatic.But it is also a hymn to democracy. Bent as the crew is on Ahab’s appalling crusade, it is equally the image of a co-operative community at work: all hands dependent on all hands, each individual responsible for the security of each.Among the crew is Ishmael, the novel’s narrator, ordinary sailor, and extraordinary reader.

Expanding to equal his ‘mighty theme’ – not only the whale but all things sublime – Melville breathes in the world’s great literature. Moby Dick is the greatest novel ever written by an American.

Few literary masterpieces cast quite as awesome a shadow as Herman Melville’s Moby Dick. Captain Ahab’s quest for the white whale is a timeless epic – a thrilling tale of vengeance and obsession, and a searing parable about humanity lost in a universe of moral ambiguity.Inspired by true events, Moby Dick is a work of astonishing psychological depth. It is perhaps the greatest sea story ever told and one of the great classics of literature.‘Towards thee I roll, thou all-destroying but unconquering whale; to the last I grapple with thee; from hell’s heart I stab at thee; for hate’s sake I spit my last breath at thee…’

Teams are everywhere: At work we are part of many different teams: the department team, the sales team, the planning team and the project team. At play we join the football team, the netball team, the swimming team, the bridge team and the dance team. Socially we support teams, watch teams and are served by teams in restaurants, hotels, shops and at events. But how much do we really know about them, what makes a successful team and why do teams fail? Effective teamworking is a perennial issue – there are so many difficulties and traps. We have all worked in teams and seen these problems at first hand and have suffered from them. This book will help you to identify the most common issues and give you and your team the tools to improve them and achieve better teamwork and performance. get the best out of yourself and others and avoid the common pitfalls that prevent teams from being the best they can be. We will look at how sports and business teams are developed and work, as well as giving examples and learning lessons from specialist teams in the many different areas such as the military, restaurants, orchestra’s, aerobatics and many more. These examples will be woven in throughout the book, and lessons drawn about what we can learn for our own teams. Developing high performance teams and effective teamwork is a perennial issue for team leaders and team members alike.

This book is for team players, team leaders and anyone who is setting up and supporting a team.

I Didn't Do The Thing Today - Madeleine Dore

''A radical masterpiece ... While many books insist on changing your life, this one invites you to deepen and expand it.'' - Mari Andrew, author of My Inner Sky''Deep, thoughtful, gently instructive, nourishing.'' - Clare Bowditch, author of Your Own Kind Of Girl''Read it and sigh with relief.'' - Hugh Mackay, author of The Kindness RevolutionAny given day brings a never-ending list of things to do. There''s the work thing, the catch-up thing, the laundry thing, the creative thing, the exercise thing, the family thing, the thing we don''t want to do, the thing we''ve been putting off (despite it being the most important thing). Even on days when we get a lot done, the thing left undone can leave us feeling guilty, anxious or disappointed. After five years of searching for the secret to productivity, Madeleine Dore discovered there isn''t one-instead, we''re being set up to fail. I Didn''t Do the Thing Today is an inspiring call to take productivity off its pedestal, to embrace the joyful messiness and unpredictability of life. For anyone who has ever felt the pressure to do more, be more, achieve more, this antidote to our doing-obsession is the permission slip we all need to find our own way.

The Real Thing - Tom Stoppard

I do envy you being married to a man with a sense of humour. Henry thinks he has a sense of humour, but what he has is a joke reflex.The play begins with Max and Charlotte, a couple whose marriage seems about to rupture. But nothing one sees on a stage is the real thing, and some things are less real than others. Charlotte is an actress who has been appearing in a play about marriage written by her husband Henry. Max, her leading man, is also married to an actress, Annie. Both marriages are at the point of rupture because Henry and Annie have fallen in love. But is it the real thing?The Real Thing premiered at the Strand Theatre, London, in 1982, winning the Evening Standard Award for Best Play. It received the Tony Award for Best Play in 1984, and, in 2000, the Tony Award for Best Revival of a Play.''What is this thing called love? In The Real Thing, we watch Henry find the answer - and we watch Mr. Stoppard do so too. The author of such high-flying neo-Shavian farces as Jumpers and Travesties turns his attention to private passion - and he does so without mortgaging an intellect that has few equals in the contemporary theater. The Real Thing is not only Mr. Stoppard''s most moving play, but also the most bracing play that anyone has written about love and marriage in years . . . so densely and entertainingly packed with wit, ideas and feelings that one visit just won''t do.''

I Did a New Thing - Tabitha Brown

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER“America’s Mom” Tabitha Brown presents an inspirational guide for encouraging positive changes in your life—one day and one challenge at a time. I did a new thing today!Years ago, Tabitha Brown started a 30-day personal challenge that she called “I Did a New Thing!” The challenge was simple. Every day she would do something she’d never done before. Sometimes it was something small like trying a new food. Other times, she’d step it up a bit and speak to someone she’d never spoken to before. Still other times, she’d do the hard thing—facing a fear that she had, like having that tough conversation with a friend. No matter what it was, the point was that she was going to take a leap of faith and watch God open up a new lane for her. One of the “new things” she tried was a vegan challenge. She’d been struggling with illness for nearly a year and was desperately searching for healing. She challenged herself to eat vegan every day for thirty days, and six years later, her life has never been the same—all because she decided to do a new thing. In I Did a New Thing, Tab shares her own stories and those of others, alongside gentle guidance and encouragement to create these incredible changes for yourself and see what good can come from them. Whether that means having the hard conversation or trying for a promotion or simply wearing something different or doing something kind for someone else, Tab has a plan for you: Try one new thing, every single day, for thirty days. You don’t have to wait until Monday or the beginning of a new month or year to get started. There’s no set time and place or any extra preparation required. All you have to do is show up for yourself. And that can start right now.
