Over the last three decades, Jacqueline Humphries (b.1960) has, through an innovative painterly process, challenged the limits of abstraction. She has produced a body of work that reaches beyond modernism, Abstract Expressionism, and abstraction as we know it.Multi-layered in application, Humphries challenges the viewer to interact with her painting in diverse ways, inviting new approaches to looking and being with a work. Expertly analysing the ways in which Humphries has challenged convention and placed abstract painting at the centre of our twenty-first century visual environment, Frances Guerin''s illuminating text reveals an artist at the peak of her powers.

«Este equilibrio sobrehumano es lo primero que sorprende al lector de Guerra y paz. Este equilibrio sutil, cuyo secreto escapa a todo análisis formal, permite que la narración fluctúe continuamente, que pase de un salón a un campo de batalla, de un diálogo íntimo a un plan de regeneración nacional, de una reflexión filosófica a una carga de caballería, de una reunión del Alto Estado Mayor francés al lecho de un moribundo, sin transiciones bruscas, sin forzar el estilo y sin necesidad de explicación ni artificio.»De la introducción de Eduardo Mendoza

Svět bez mužů není zdaleka tak idylický, jak se nám ženy snaží namluvit… Necelé čtyři roky poté, co globální pohroma vybila všechny samčí savce na světě, se jediné dvě výjimky, Yorick Brown a jeho opičák Ampersand, ocitají v Japonsku. Ampersanda sem unesla záhadná žoldačka vyzbrojená samurajským mečem a Yorick se svými průvodkyněmi, agentkou 355 a doktorkou Allison Mannovou, jej vysledovali až sem, do Země vycházejícího slunce, která se vyrovnala se ztrátou mužů typicky japonským způsobem. Ampersandem v sobě zřejmě má klíč k přežití lidstva, a Yorick s agentkou 355 se za ním musí vydat do Tokia, kde na ně čeká setkání s pozůstatky jakuzy, dětskými gangsterkami a jednou někdejší hvězdou pop music, která zešílela. Dr. Mannová se zatím s novou přítelkyní Rose vydává za svou matkou. I když nečeká přívětivé přivítání, skutečnost předčí veškeré její obavy.

Poems from a critically acclaimed Cuban writer available in English for the first time.  Imbued with a sensuality reminiscent of the work of Anaïs Nin, Wendy Guerra’s Delicates takes readers on an exhilarating journey through the cities of love, where women leave their bodies “in the showers of men,” marking their territory “like animals in heat,” their panties “saturated with sand and a sidereal isolating odor.” Guerra’s shocking metaphors and images invite us to enter her gallery of striking and provoking poems where we witness a flight through the air from a thirty-fourth-story window and a woman’s pilgrimage to the salt flats “to taste the pink in stones” on her lover’s behalf. Guerra’s relationship with her native Cuba—much like her relationships with men—is complex and multilayered. Her work confronts the realities of a political system that doesn’t celebrate artistic freedom. Here we have a new way of looking at a woman, an artist, a country, and the colonizers of that country. In these music-infused poems, Guerra shares with us her hard-won truths. Â

Jacqueline Duncan founded the Inchbald School of Interior Design in 1960, and the Inchbald School of Garden Design in 1972. War-time experiences as a young evacuee living in grand English country houses kindled her fascination with buildings and gardens before she met and married Michael Inchbald, a leading interior decorator. Britain had no equivalent of the Parsons School of Design in the USA, so Jacqueline Duncan became determined to establish a school in London. An important component of Inchbald courses is interior design history, which Jacqueline Duncan outlines, explaining how the profession developed out of associated trades and gift ed amateurism. Many distinguished interior designers and garden designers are Inchbald graduates. Examples of their work are included in an appendix.

Critically acclaimed, award-winning biography of CS Lewis, JRR Tolkien and the brilliant group of writers to come out of Oxford during the Second World War.C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien and their friends were a regular feature of the Oxford scenery in the years during and after the Second World War. They drank beer on Tuesdays at the ‘Bird and Baby’, and on Thursday nights they met in Lewis’ Magdalen College rooms to read aloud from the books they were writing; jokingly they called themselves ‘The Inklings’.C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien first introduced The Screwtape Letters and The Lord of the Rings to an audience in this company and Charles Williams, poet and writer of supernatural thrillers, was another prominent member of the group.Humphrey Carpenter, who wrote the acclaimed biography of J.R.R. Tolkien, draws upon unpublished letters and diaries, to which he was given special access, in this engrossing story.

We feel therefore we are. Conscious sensations ground our sense of self. They are essential to our idea of ourselves as psychic beings: present, existent, and mattering. But is it only humans who feel this way? Do other animals? Will future machines? To answer these questions we need a scientific understanding of consciousness: what it is and why it has evolved. Nicholas Humphrey has been researching these issues for fifty years. In this extraordinary book, weaving together intellectual adventure, cutting-edge science, and his own breakthrough experiences, he tells the story of his quest to uncover the evolutionary history of consciousness: from his discovery of blindsight after brain damage in monkeys, to hanging out with mountain gorillas in Rwanda, to becoming a leading philosopher of mind. Out of this, he has come up with an explanation of conscious feeling—''phenomenal consciousness''—that he presents here in full for the first time. Building on this theory of how phenomenal consciousness is generated in the human brain, he turns to the morally crucial question of whether it exists in non-human creatures. His conclusions, on the evidence as it stands, are radical. Contrary to both popular and much scientific opinion, he argues that phenomenal consciousness is ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Humphrey Carpenter je autorem Tolkienova životopisu, který i přes nespoutaný rozvoj tolkienovských studií nepřestal patřit k základnímu kánonu literatury o JRRT. Ve své knize Inklingové Carpenter nyní otevírá českému čtenáři dveře do světa pozoruhodného literárního kroužku, v němž se setkávali J. R. R. Tolkien, C. S. Lewis a jejich přátelé. S lehkostí a erudicí, s hlubokou znalostí oxfordského univerzitního prostředí i s moudře uplatňovanou imaginativností v ní Carpenter odhaluje intelektuální i duchovní zázemí skupiny, která zásadně ovlivnila podobu moderní fantasy literatury. Poutavě i zasvěceně přibližuje přátelství, intelektuální rivalitu a zdroje inspirace v tvůrčím prostředí, z něhož vytryskla jedinečná literární imaginace 20. století. Carpenterovi Inklingové jsou strhujícím příběhem o síle představivosti a lidského společenství.

The artist Humphrey Ocean RA has painted portraits of Sir Paul McCartney and Philip Larkin, among many others. But alongside these prestigious commissions, he has always returned to drawing the simpler things in life: our ''alluringly unnatural world'', as he puts it. The result is this idiosyncratic and charming collection of birds, all rendered in with humour and a bold brush. With a species to discover on every page, this book is the perfect gift for any keen ornithologist, aspiring twitcher or dedicated listener to Tweet of the Day.As well as birdwatching around his home and studio in South London, Ocean regularly visits his sister, who is a nun in Nairobi and has loved birds all her life. There, he paints Kenyan birds such as the Eurasian bee-eater, the bulbul and the flycatcher that are ''local, a bit like our garden birds so nothing overly exotic, but of course to me they are''. They join the familiar gulls, thrushes and tits of the gardens, parks and hedgerows of the UK in this beautifully produced collection.

William Roy was a polymath and a visionary. His work established the path that would lead to the formation of the Ordnance Survey and to all of the paper-based and digital mapping products that we use today. His story – very much one of the Enlightenment – demonstrates how one man’s curiosity and diligence enabled him to excel across a diverse range of topics: military reconnaissance and intelligence; the lessons that could be learned from the past about the tactical use of landscape; the science of determining the height of mountains; and the development of a meticulous methodology to achieve an unprecedented accuracy in topographical measurement. In this biography, Humphrey Welfare uncovers the career and activities of this important figure, and in doing so paints a vivid picture of the inner complexities of 18th-century Britain.
