Lessons from Kafka - Petr Koťátko, Tomáš Koblížek

Kniha konfrontuje úvahy o díle Franze Kafky od třinácti autorek a autorů z šesti zemí a tří kontinentů. Kafkovo dílo je zde zkoumáno z perspektivy různých filozofických oborů: ontologie, epistemologie, filozofie jazyka, etiky, politické filozofie, filozofie literatury a estetiky. Formální a metodologická rozmanitost příspěvků je stejně bohatá: zahrnuje detailní interpretace vybraných Kafkových textů, analýzy charakteristických rysů rozpoznatelných napříč Kafkovým dílem, srovnání Kafky s jinými autory, diskuse s vlivnými kafkovskými interprety či úvahy o problému kafkovských adaptací. Texty jsou tematicky rozděleny do tří kapitol: Struktura světa a hranice poznání, Společenská realita a prostor morálního hodnocení a Fikční světy a způsoby vyprávění. Kniha je v angličtině. The book is conceived as an opportunity for thirteen authors from six countries and three continents to confront the lessons they draw from Kafka's work. They approach it from the perspectives of several philosophical disciplines: ontology, epistemology, philosophy of language, ethics, political philosophy, philosophy of literature, and aesthetics. The formal and methodological variety of their contributions is equally rich: it includes detailed interpretations of particular texts, analyses of characteristic features recognizable across Kafka's work, confrontations with other writers, disputes with influential Kafka interpreters, reopening the problem of Kafkian adaptations, etc. The articles are thematically divided into ...

Máslem dolů (Petr Šabach-Tomáš Hanák) (MP3-CD)

Audiokniha od autora: Petr Šabach, čte: Tomáš Hanák a Petr Šabach. Petr Šabach nejen autorem, ale i jedním z hrdinů svého díla! Petr Šabach čerpá náměty ze života svého, svých přátel a kombinuje je do příběhů s přirozenými pointami způsobem neobyčejně věrohodným, jenž má navíc dar oslovovat všechny generace. Velkou oblibu získal pak zvláště u mladých lidí. K tomu jistě přispěly i filmy, které vznikly na základě Šabachových knih (Šakalí léta, Pelíšky, Pupendo, U mě dobrý, Občanský průkaz), ale zároveň mimořádně lidský, sdělný a bezprostřední styl autorova vyprávění. Vyšly mu úspěšné tituly Babičky, Hovno hoří, Jak potopit Austrálii, Opilé banány, Putování mořského koně, Škoda lásky, Zvláštní problém Františka S. Zatím poslední dílo, novela Máslem dolů, je z významné části dialogem dvou přátel Arnošta a Evžena, vedeném v hospodě nazvané Ticho. Název knihy nejen upozorňuje na situaci, kterou každý z nás zná při pádu namazaného pokrmu, ale symbolicky pojmenovává několik základních rovin událostí knihy. Vypravěč Arnošt sleduje jako pozorovatel dění, kterému nemůže zabránit, ale je schopný nalézt humor a komiku i v obyčejnosti. Tomáš Hanák je vypravěčem a zároveň Arnoštem, Petr Šabach čte postavu Evžena.

Dějištěm i hybatelem příběhu je místo s pohnutou historií: opuštěný dům ve slezské Vidnavě, v němž býval kněžský seminář, pak zajatecký lágr, po něm lazaret wehrmachtu a po něm dětská ozdravovna. Hlavní část textu psaného na rozhraní žánrů tvoří záznamy v sešitu nedávno nalezeném v tamním archivu.

Tradiční ročenka, milovaný i nenáviděný výběr z české poezie.

Sebedestrukce Západu - Václav Klaus, Ladislav Jakl, Milan Knížák, Tomáš Břicháček, Jiří Weigl, Ivo Strejček, Aleš Valenta, Michal Semín, Petr Hájek

Ve společenském vývoji západního světa došlo k závažnému negativnímu posunu. V minulých letech nás většinou zneklidňovala "jen" jednotlivá, i když zásadní témata (jako je nadměrná a stále rostoucí regulace trhu, nezastavitelná evropská centralizace, klimatické inženýrství, pokrokářství apod.), dnes ale nastalo něco jiného. Nyní se všechna témata spojují a slévají do jednoho širokého globálního proudu, jehož ambicí není nic menšího než naprostá přeměna světa, jak jej známe. Proto se IVK rozhodl prezentovat svůj přístup ke společenské krizi Západu v celé jeho šíři, hloubce a celistvosti. I když nejextrémnější a nejradikálnější podobu mají tyto trendy v posledních letech a měsících v USA, sborník textů autorů IVK a jeho nejbližších spolupracovníků nevznikl jako prostá reakce na aktuální americké dění. Je pokusem o rozbor širších souvislostí. Je příspěvkem k pochopení faktu, že navzdory tomu, o jak rozdílných oborech mluvíme, ve skutečnosti jde jen o dílčí projevy jednoho jediného frontálního útoku na západní civilizaci v podobě, jak ji vybudovaly celé generace před námi. Editorem sborníku je Václav Klaus. Svými texty dále přispěli Jiří Weigl, Ladislav Jakl, Aleš Valenta, Ivo Strejček, Michal Semín, Petr Hájek, Tomáš Břicháček a Milan Knížák.

Lessons from Madame Chic - Jennifer L. Scottová

Inspired by Paris, this lighthearted and deceptively wise contemporary memoir serves as a guidebook for women on the path to adulthood, sophistication, and style, perfect for any woman looking to lead a more fulfilling, passionate, and artful life.Paris may be the City of Light, but for many it is also the City of Transformation. When Jennifer Scott arrived in Paris as an exchange student from California, she had little idea she would become an avid fan of French fashion, lifestyle, and sophistication. Used to a casual life back home, in Paris she was hosted by a woman she calls “Madame Chic,” mistress of a grand apartment in the Sixteenth Arrondissement. Madame Chic mentors Jennifer in the art of living, with elegance and an impeccably French less-is-more philosophy. Three-course meals prepared by the well-dressed Madame Chic (her neat clothes covered by an apron, of course) lure Jennifer from her usual habit of frequent snacks, junk food, sweatpants, and TV. Additional time spent with “Madame Bohemienne,” a charming single mother who passionately embraces Parisian joie de vivre, introduces readers to another facet of behind-closed-doors Parisian life. While Francophiles will appreciate this memoir of a young woman’s adventure abroad, others who may not ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Life Lessons from 1 Samuel - Max Lucado

It matters how you finish.A good start is crucial, but it''s the end that matters. First Samuel is a book of good starts but bad finishes. Eli was a sterling religious leader, but by the end of his life, the ark of the covenant had been captured and his two rebellious sons killed. Samuel was a prophet of God who anointed kings, but his sons also turned away from the Lord. The most dramatic example is Saul. He seemed to be the perfect choice for Israel''s first king. But success led to disobedience, and he slid from prominence to paranoia to suicide. These stories remind us that when it comes to our faith, we also need to finish well. As the apostle Paul wrote, we must "run in such a way as to get the prize" (1 Corinthians 9:24).The Life Lessons with Max Lucado series brings the Bible to life in twelve lessons filled with intriguing questions, inspirational stories, and poignant reflections to take you deeper into God''s Word.

Hard Lessons from the Hurt Business - Ed Latimore

We''ve all got a choice. We can get better at fighting or worse at life. Every day, we absorb body blows: some glancing, others that knock us to the mat. It doesn''t matter how well-prepared or tough you think you are. Everyone, at some point, is hit with a haymaker from life. It''s the cost of living. And just like in the ring, opting out of pain is not an option. In Hard Lessons From The Hurt Business, former heavyweight boxer Ed Latimore takes readers on a journey from his hardscrabble childhood in Pittsburgh''s public housing projects to his signing with Jay-Z''s Roc Nation Sport.

Life Lessons from the Little Red Wagon - Ronald E. Simmons

In The Little Red Wagon, prolific business leader and public servant Ron Simmons invites you to leave ordinary behind and glide into the richly meaningful life you were intended to live.

Lessons from the Afterlife - Matthew McKay

A guided journey to discover your soul’s answers to life’s great questions. Human life is surrounded by mystery. At the centre of this mystery is the question: Why are we here? is there a purpose to our existence, a reason why we’re experiencing the beauty and pain of physical life? There is also the mystery of the universe itself. What is it and where did it come from? Religious and spiritual traditions have created complex cosmologies to answer these questions, but each tradition has a different answer and we are left with profound uncertainty about deeper reality. As psychologist Matthew McKay reveals, we can each discover our own answers to these questions, our own inner truth, by connecting with the wisdom of our souls.

10½ Lessons from Experience - Paul Marshall

In 10½ Lessons from Experience, Paul Marshall distils the experience of 35 years of investing, including over 20 years at Marshall Wace, the global equity hedge fund partnership. He describes the disconnect between academic theory and market practice, in particular the reality and persistence of ''skill'' - the continuing ability of the best practitioners to beat the market. But he also underscores the prevalence of uncertainty and human fallibility, showing how a successful investment management business must steer a path which recognises both the persistence of skill and the pitfalls of cognitive bias, human fallibility and hubris.
