Knots are well known as symbols of moral relationships. This book develops an exciting new view of this otherwise taken-for-granted image and considers their metaphoric value in and for moral order. In chapters that focus on Japan, China, Europe, South America and in several Pacific Island societies, granular ethnography depicts how knots are deployed to express unity in daily and ritual embodiment, political authority and the cosmos, as well as in social thought. The volume will be of interest to anthropologists and other scholars concerned with metaphor and symbolism, material culture and technology.

Zázračná cesta Trevora Noaha z juhoafrického apartheidu k pracovnému stolu The Daily Show sa začala kriminálnym činom: jeho narodením. Trevor je potomkom belocha a černošskej matky. V tom čase im za takéto spojenie hrozilo päť rokov väzenia. Bol živým dôkazom nerozvážnosti svojich rodičov, preto musel stráviť prvých päť rokov života schovaný vnútri, aby ho matka ochránila pred vládnymi úradníkmi, ktorí ho kedykoľvek mohli odviesť. Trevorove zážitky sú veselé a dramaticky pôsobivé. Či už večeria húsenice, lebo časy sú ťažké, alebo ho počas únosu vyhodia z idúceho auta, Trevor opisuje svoj zvláštny svet vtipne a pravdivo.

Trevor Noah je oblíbeným komikem a moderátorem z Jižní Afriky. Uvádí populární satirický pořad v americké televizi, ale především vystupuje ve vlastní stand-up comedy show. V ní s břitkým humorem líčí historky ze svého dětství a mládí a ve stejném duchu koncipuje i tuto knihu.Narozený mimo zákon je sbírkou veselých, dramatických a někdy také dojemných příběhů, které se vzájemně proplétají a prolínají a dohromady vytvářejí obraz pro nás nezvyklého a neznámého světa.Trevorova pozoruhodná životní pouť začala zločinem: příchodem na svět. Narodil se totiž černošské matce a bílému otci v době, kdy Jihoafrickou republiku sužoval apartheid a vztahy mezi partnery odlišné barvy pleti byly pokládány za trestný čin. Pád apartheidu znamenal v tomto ohledu vysvobození, ale život v Jižní Africe ani pak nebyl procházkou růžovým sadem. Ač se musel Trevor živit housenkami, byl vyhozen z jedoucího auta nebo se jen snažil přežít nástrahy randění, odhodlaně se vrhal vstříc dalším dobrodružstvím vyzbrojen důvtipem, smyslem pro humor a bezpodmínečnou láskou své nekonvenční matky.

As seen on The Daily Show, an illustrated portrait of the Donald J. Trump Twitter account, with analysis and 'scholarly' commentary from the writers of The Daily Show and an introduction by Trevor Noah. In June 2017, just steps from Trump Tower in midtown Manhattan, The Daily Show with Trevor Noah opened The Donald J. Trump Presidential Twitter Library, a 4,000-square-foot museum space that gave the 45th president and his amazing Twitter legacy the respect they deserve. In the single weekend it was open to the public, the Library pop-up drew 7,500 visitors and had to turn away countless others. But the Presidential Twitter Library experience should not be limited to the elite coastal few. Not fair! All citizens, even the Mexican ones, should have the chance to see Donald Trump's tweets in their rightful context - organized and commented on in the fearless, hilarious, insightful voice of The Daily Show.

První Stolperstein byl v Praze instalován 8. října 2008 a již čtyřstý byl položen 22. června 2021. Sage sestavil tuto knihu jako poctu obětem nacistického režimu.

Trevor Noah sa narodil ako syn juhoafrickej matky z kmeňa Xhosa a švajčiarskeho občana. V čase apartheidu boli vzťahy medzi partnermi odlišnej farby pleti neakceptovateľné a pokladali sa za trestný čin. Trevor bol dieťa, ktoré sa vlastne nemalo narodiť, a tak ho museli skrývať. Zažil chudobu, prejavy rasizmu, ale aj odvážnu vzburu svojich "farboslepých rodičov", ktorí sa s dôvtipom snažili prekonať etnické a rasové predsudky. Dnes je z neho obľúbený moderátor s vlastnou show, cestuje po celom svete a vystupuje ako stand-up komik pred vypredanými sálami. Jeho rozprávanie sledujeme v navzájom prepojených príbehoch, mnohé sú zábavné či dramatické, iné zasa hlboko dojemné. Trevorova kniha sa pokladá za najúspešnejšiu autobiografiu 21. storočia, keďže nám s dôvtipom a úprimnosťou približuje nezvyčajný svet, na ktorý by sme najradšej zabudli. Spoznávame ťažké detstvo, keď jeho jedálniček pozostával čisto z húseníc, alebo keď ho pri únose vyhodili z idúceho minibusu. Autor nevynechá ani spomienky na sladké trápenie, čo mu pripravili stredoškolské lásky. Celou knihou sa vinie jeho neutíchajúci zmysel pre humor a satiru aj krásne puto k nebojácnej a milujúcej matke. Chránila svojho syna pred kolotočom chudoby, násilia a týrania a ukázala mu cestu k slobode, vzdelaniu a dôstojnému životu.

An illuminating account of urban botany in the British Isles – its ecology, history and cultural significance.The walls, pavements, lawns, parks, playing fields, verges and waste ground that make up the built environment of Britain and Ireland are home to an extraordinary array of plant species. Native and non-native species together find ways to endure in often harsh and uncompromising habitats. In Urban Plants, leading botanist Trevor Dines tells the stories of our urban flowers, ferns and conifers: how they arrived, how they survive, and how a select few seize the opportunity to become masters of the streets, thriving in the face of constant upheaval and change.We learn how our villages, towns and cities have changed over time – from Roman Britain to reconstruction after World War II – and the resulting geographical variation that exists in our flora today, such as London Rocket at the Tower of London or the newly evolved York Groundsel recently discovered in a railway station carpark. Trevor also looks to the future and the potential impacts of invasive species, herbicides and climate change, as well as the concept of urban rewilding.Illustrated with around 350 colour photographs, maps and diagrams, as well as text boxes ...

One late summer''s day in 1642 two rival armies faced each other across the rolling Warwickshire countryside at Edgehill. There, Royalists faithful to King Charles I engaged in a battle with the supporters of the Parliament. Ahead lay even more desperate battles like Marston Moor and Naseby. The fighting was also to rage through Scotland and Ireland, notably at the siege of Drogheda and the decisive battle of Dunbar.Few periods in English history are more significant than that to which acclaimed author Trevor Royle turns his attention in CIVIL WAR. From his shrewd analyses of the characters who played their parts in the wars to his brilliantly concise descriptions of battles, Trevor Royle has produced a vivid and dramatic narrative of those turbulent years. His book also reveals how the new ideas and dispensations that followed from the wars - Cromwell''s Protectorate, the Restoration of Charles II and the ''Glorious Revolution'' of 1689 - made it possible for England, Ireland and Scotland to progress towards their own more distant future as democratic societies.

As a child in the 1960s, Luke Jennings was fascinated by the rivers and lakes around his Sussex home. Beneath their surfaces, it seemed to him, waited alien and mysterious worlds. With library books as his guide, he applied himself to the task of learning to fish.His progress was slow, and for years he caught nothing. But then a series of teachers presented themselves, including an inspirational young intelligence officer, from whom he learnt stealth, deception and the art of the dry fly. So began an enlightening but often dark-shadowed journey of discovery. It would lead to bright streams and wild country, but would end with his mentor''s capture, torture and execution by the IRA. Blood Knots is about angling, about great fish caught and lost, but it is also about friendship, honour and coming of age. As an adult Jennings has sought out lost and secretive waterways, probing waters ''as deep as England'' at dead of night in search of giant pike. The quest, as always, is for more than the living quarry. For only by searching far beneath the surface, Jennings suggests in this most moving and thought-provoking of memoirs, can you connect with your own deep history.
