Amongst the ancient papyri of the Dead Sea, a remarkable scroll is discovered. Written in the first century AD, it purports to be the true account of the life of Jesus, as told by Youdas the sicarios - Judas Iscariot: the missing Gospel of Judas. If authentic, it will be one of the most incendiary documents in the history of humankind. The task of proving - or disproving - its validity falls to Father Leo Newman, one of the world's leading experts in Koine, the demotic Greek of the Roman Empire, and a man the newspapers like to call a 'renegade priest'. But as Leo absorbs himself in Judas' testimony, the stories of his own life haunt him. The story of his forbidden yet irresistible love for a married woman. The story of his mother's passionate and tragic affair amidst the war-time ruins of Rome. They are stories of love and betrayal that may threaten his faith just as deeply as the Gospel of Judas...With a dramatic narrative that spans from the Europe of the Second World War to Jerusalem two thousand years after Jesus' birth, THE GOSPEL OF JUDAS is a compelling and erudite thriller.

Gabrielle Bates’s electric debut collection Judas Goat plumbs the depths of intimate relationships. The book’s eponymous animal is used to lead sheep to slaughter while its own life is spared, and its harrowing existence echoes through this spellbinding collection of forty poems, which wrestle with betrayal and forced obedience, violence and young womanhood, and the “forbidden felt language” of sexual and sacred love. These poems conjure encounters with figures from scriptures, domesticated animals eyeing the wild, and mothering as a shapeshifting, spectral force; they question what it means to love another person and how to exorcise childhood fears. All the while, the Deep South haunts, and no matter how far away the speaker moves, the South always draws her back home.In confession, in illumination, Bates establishes herself as an unflinching witness to the risks that desire necessitates, as Judas Goat holds readers close and whispers its unforgettable lines.

WINNER OF THE JAMES TAIT BLACK BIOGRAPHY PRIZESHORTLISTED FOR THE RATHBONES FOLIO PRIZELONGLISTED FOR THE BAILLIE GIFFORD PRIZE FOR NON-FICTIONSelected as a Book of the Year in the Herald In 1845, a Reading bookseller named John Snare came across the dirt-blackened portrait of a prince at a country house auction. Suspecting that it might be a long-lost Velázquez, he bought the picture and set out to discover its strange history - a quest that led from fame to ruin and exile.Fusing detection and biography, this book shows how and why great works of art can affect us, even to the point of mania. And on the trail of John Snare, Cumming makes a surprising discovery of her own. But most movingly, The Vanishing Man is an eloquent and passionate homage to the Spanish master Velázquez, bringing us closer to the creation and appreciation of his works than ever before.

Kniha - autor Rob Halford, 386 stran, česky, brožovaná bez přebalu lesklá Rob Halford, legendární frontman Judas Priest, jedné z nejúspěšnějších heavymetalových kapel všech dob, popisuje ve svých pamětech cestu k hudební slávě spojenou s alkoholismem, závislostí, nešťastnými sexuálními schůzkami a bezútěšnou osobní tragédií, ale také s vykoupením ... a hledáním lásky. Doznání rockera je také příběhem o tom, jak se během pěti desetiletí změnil hudební průmysl. Setkáme se mimo jiné se Supermanem, Andym Warholem, Madonnou či Jackem Nicholsonem. Nejvíce se ale dozvíme o vývoji heavy metalu, jehož je kniha oslavou.

Elektronická kniha - autor Sergio Stevan, 88 stran, slovensky V knihe Judáš - Záblesk v tme nájdeme nevšedný pohľad na jednu z najkontroverznejších postáv Nového zákona, Judáša Iškariotského. Zo stránok dona Stevana sa vynára naliehavá otázka: Prečo to všetko? Prečo zrada? Ako mohol apoštol, povolaný Kristom a zdieľajúci s ním tri roky svojho života, dospieť do tohto bodu? Je to vôbec možné? Je ťažké odpovedať na tieto otázky. A možno práve to je dôvod, prečo už v prvých storočiach kresťanstva boli vyskúšané mnohé cesty, ako nejakým spôsobom rehabilitovať postavu Judáša, ako zmierniť temnotu, ktorá ho obklopuje, ako ospravedlniť – ak je to vôbec možné – jeho činy a ako vpustiť do tejto udalosti aspoň záblesk svetla. Autor sa snaží dostať do najtajnejších zákutí duše tohto apoštola, jedného z dvanástich, a rekonštruuje jeho osobný príbeh vo svetle Svätého písma: hlas Krista, ktorý ho povoláva za apoštola, pokušenie peňazí, uhryznutie...

Charles IV, King of Bohemia and Holy Roman Emperor, has been called "one of the most learned and diplomatically skillful sovereigns” of the fourteenth century. Having moved the seat of the Holy Roman Empire to Prague and founding the first university in Central Europe, Charles IV is a towering figure in Czech history and a crucial character in the story of medieval Europe.Recent research, especially in art history, has tended to present Charles IV in a purely positive, unblemished light: viewing him and his imperial court as the engine behind a flourishing of culture in the region. This book views Charles IV through a more critical lens, examining the careful construction that went into the way he presented himself, winning over people of the time and even today, as well as the most characteristic manifestations of Charles' execution of royal power.The first part of the book offers a chronological description of Charles' life within the broader context of the times and the House of Luxembourg. The second part provides a close look into Charles IV's style of rule while focusing on phenomena that reveal his personal conception of power and how it was wielded.

The English naturalist Charles Darwin wrote an autobiography titled The Autobiography of Charles Darwin. Recollections of the Development of my Mind and Character is the title of a text written by Charles Darwin for his family. He claims to have begun writing it about May 28 and finished it by August 3. The work, which included an autobiographical chapter, was published in 1887 by John Murray as part of The Life and Letters of Charles Darwin, five years after Darwin's passing. Francis Darwin, Darwin's son, changed the text that appeared in Life and Letters, deleting key sentences reflecting his father's skepticism about Christianity and God. The missing chapters were eventually added by Nora Barlow, Darwin's granddaughter, in a 1958 edition published to mark the book's 100th anniversary of publication. The Autobiography of Charles Darwin 1809-1882 was the title of this publication, which Collins published in London. restored, along with the initial omissions edited with an appendix and notes by Nora Barlow, his granddaughter.
