Lost Argyll - Marian Pallister
In Lost Argyll, Marian Pallister looks not only at the lost architectural heritage of Argyll but also at its lost industries, ferries, roads, bridges and archaeological monuments. Poltalloch House, for example, built in the 1840s as a monument to commerce and investment, lies ruinous, its owners having stripped it of its roof to avoid paying crippling rates; Campbeltown once bristled with distilleries until a cocktail of economic factors left it with only two whilst others have been subsumed into the modern townscape; little remains of even the jetties at Loch Awe and West Loch Tarbert, two of the busiest waterways in times past.This largely rural county has seen its fair share of forts, castles and mansions rise and fall. Some were destroyed in battle; others simply lost the financial battle to remain standing in the face of increasing taxation. Vernacular architecture has also disappeared: the houses of the fishermen and those in agricultural settlements crumbled in the wake of depredations, clearances, afforestation and government demands on landlords to house tenants in fitting conditions.In this fascinating yet poignant study, Marian Pallister introduces the many varied aspects of lost Argyll, showing how ancient and even relatively modern landscapes have changed inexorably, often with little thought for conservation or preservation.

Argylle - Elly Conway
Zábavný a napínavý špionážní thriller pro fanoušky Jamese Bonda! Sen jednoho ruského magnáta o obnovení velikosti národa spustí řetězec událostí, které mohou přivést svět na pokraj chaosu. Zabránit tomu může pouze Frances Coffeyová, nejlegendárnější špionka CIA. K tomu však potřebuje pomoc někoho mimořádně schopného. A tak do hry vstupuje Aaron Argylle, problémový agent s pošramocenou minulostí. Kniha Argylle volně inspirovala stejnojmenný akční film s hvězdným obsazením (mj. Henry Cavill nebo Samuel L. Jackson) v režii Matthewa Vaughna (např. Hvězdný prach či špionážní trilogie Kingsman).

The Terezin Album of Marianka Zadikow - Deborah Dwork
An imprisoned bookbinder wrote these words in a small blank book that he had secretly crafted from pilfered materials at the Terezin (Theresienstadt) concentration camp in September 1944. He presented the album to a fellow prisoner, twenty-one-year-old Marianka Zadikow. Over the next several months, as the Nazis pressed forward with mass deportations from Terezin to Auschwitz, Marianka began to collect inscriptions and sketches from her fellow inmates.Marianka Zadikow s album, presented here in a facsimile edition, is a poignant document from the last months of the Holocaust. The words and images inscribed here - by children and grandparents, factory workers and farmhands, professionals and intellectuals, musicians and artists - reflect both joy and trepidation. They include passages of remembered verse, lovingly executed drawings, and hurried farewells on the eve of transport to Auschwitz.Facing-page translations render the book s many languages into English, while historical and biographical notes give details, where known, of the fates of those whose words are recorded here. An introduction by Holocaust scholar Deborah Dwork tells the story of the Terezin camp and how Marianka and her family fared while imprisoned there. The array of voices and the glimpses into individual lives that The Terezin Album affords make it an arresting reminder of the sustaining power of care, community, and hope amid darkness.

Úvahy v nečase - Marian Váross
Umenovedec a estetik, ale aj filozof, axiológ a psychológ Marian Váross patril medzi najvzdelanejších Slovákov druhej polovice 20. storočia. Výber z jeho publicistickej tvorby – zbierka esejí a glos, úvahy o dialektike, človeku a strachu, o analógii v dejinách, viere a ideáloch, o spoločenských systémoch. O politike medzi privátnym a verejným, o reálnom (alibistickom) socializme či komunistickom cynizme, totalite a entropii, ale aj o fašizme a komunistickej xenofóbii, o postavení a pocitoch človeka v socialistickej prítomnosti – je aj po desaťročiach stále aktuálny pre kriticky mysliaceho čitateľa.Marian Váross (1923 – 1988), kunsthistorik, estetik, axiológ, autor výtvarných monografií (Alexy, Lea Mrázov

Popamäti - Marián Reisel
Zbierka Popamäti má bilančný charakter. Marián Reisel (nar. 1951) sa ňou pripomína po dvoch zbierkach: Odpoveď (1986) a Po pýtaní (1995) v kontexte životného jubilea. Venovanie deťom určuje základný tón – sumuje prežité, vnútorne vybojované a hodnotovo vyčírené – s nádejou, že stopa ľudskej bytosti z konkrétneho historického času zostane, jej hlas bude rezonovať aj v čase individuálneho nebytia. Zbierka je členená do šiestich oddielov s náznakom motivických hniezd (predkovia, dejiny, žena, ja, poézia, symbióza života a smrti). Cesta v čase je zároveň záznamom o meniacom sa jazyku tvorby. Autor osciluje medzi viazaným veršom s vysokými významovými polohami a tendenciou k vecnosti, ironickému odľahčeniu. Odkazmi na kontext tvorby dobovo významných básnikov (L. Novomeský, M. Válek, J. Ondruš, M. Rúfus, K. Chmel) sa Marián Reisel pripomína aj ako dôležitá postava kultúrneho života – bývalý redaktor časopisov Dotyky, Kultúrny život, Tvorba T, Fragment K.

Pomológia - Ivan Hričovský, Marián Komžík
222 AKTUÁLNYCH ODRÔD NA SLOVENSKU Kniha podrobne popisuje ovocné odrody, ktoré sú v súčasnosti dostupné u nás. Na túto novú pomológiu sme čakali až dlhých 15 rokoch Krátky slovník slovenského jazyka definuje na svojich stránkach slovo pomológia ako vedný odbor skúmajúci ovocné druhy a ich odrody. Prierezom histórie sa tejto problematike venuje mnoho odborníkov u nás i v zahraničí, ktorí sledujú pribúdajúce odrody ovocných druhov vo svojej oblasti. K najvýznamnejším odborníkom u nás v celej histórii patrí prof. Ing. Ivan Hričovský, DrSc., ktorý za ostatných 50 rokov spolu s kolektívmi ďalších skvelých odborníkov priniesol na slovenský knižný trh hneď niekoľko pomológií. Okamžite sa stali bestsellermi a potom celé roky boli praktickými pomocníkmi pre pestovateľov ovocia a záhradkárov - najmä ako návod pri výbere pestovaných odrôd. Kto je zostavovateľom tejto pomológie? Na to, aby niekto mohol napísať kvalitnú pomológiu svojej súčasnosti, musí byť nielen veľmi skúsený v oblasti starostlivosti o ovocné stromky a drobné ovocie a ich výsadby, ale aj ich šľachtenia i vrúbľovania, avšak aj odborne podkutý v pestovateľskej praxi. Nesmie mu chýbať trpezlivosť pri pátraní po autoroch nových, iba málo propagovaných vyšľachtených odrôd. Nejeden si myslí, že čím je svet kozmopolitnejší, tým je zostavovanie takejto odbornej publikácie jednoduchšie. Verte, nie je to tak. Takýmto odborníkom je práve hlavný autor tejto publikácie Ing. Marián Komžík. Dlhé roky pracuje na rozširovaní svojej odbornosti. Dennodenne v odbornej praxi pomáha nielen slovenským záhradkárom, ovocinárom a sadárom pri rozširovaní kvalitných a chutných odrôd ovocných druhov. Tým, že je človek z praxe s obrovskými skúsenosťami, je v súčasnosti najvhodnejší odborník na zostavenie pomológie, ktorá zachytáva väčšinu nových u nás ponúkaných odrôd ovocia. Pre súčasné a budúce generácie Marián Komžík zachytil dnešný stav pestovaných a predávaných odrôd. Dlhé mesiace pátral po ponúkaných, dostupných a pestovaných odrodách na Slovensku. Náš trh sa medzičasom výrazne otvoril svetu a dnes u nás záhradkári pestujú ovocné stromky a drobné ovocie z okolitých krajín, ako sú najmä Česko, ale aj Poľsko, Ukrajina či Maďarsko. Rozšírené sú i dovezené odrody z Nemecka, Holandska, Švajčiarska a Anglicka, ale aj z Ruska, Talianska, Francúzska, mnohé sú však aj spoza Atlantického oceánu z Kanady, Brazílie a Spojených štátov amerických.

Šepot života - Marian Škotka
Marian Škotka vo svojom knižnom debute Šepot života ponúka deväť poviedok o zložitých medziľudských vzťahoch v modernom svete. Deväť osudov ovplyvnených ľudským egom, vášňami, slabosťami, láskou, ale aj náhodou. Pútavo napísané príbehy sú akoby vystrihnuté zo života, možno sa odohrávajú aj pred našimi očami, len ich vnímame z úplne iného uhla. Sú autenticky súčasné, no svojou hĺbkou odrážajú nemenné a opakujúce sa ľudské snaženie o naplnenie vlastných predstáv o živote rešpektujúc alebo ignorujúc mravný zákon. Marian Škotka vytvoril príbehy, ktoré sú nielen pútavé, ale privádzajú aj k hlbšiemu zamysleniu o živote a jeho skutočných hodnotách. Reflektujú moderný mestský život s jeho pestrou ponukou i mnohými nástrahami. Tak ako život sám často smerujú k prekvapivému rozuzleniu.Peter Jaroš Škotka má výrazne vyvinutý zmysel pre detail, priam akúsi skrytú a nenápadnú „filozofiu detailu“, ktorá dodáva jeho prózam punc vierohodnosti bez toho, aby sa detail stal dominantou kompozície.Dalimír Hajko

LOST: Back to the Island - Emily St. James, Noel Murray
A comprehensive critical companion to the blockbuster TV show LOST, revisiting its core themes, lore, and impact on culture For fans of one of the most successful and highly discussed shows in recent memory, LOST: Back to the Island is both a delightful time capsule and a rousing work of entertainment criticism. Before it premiered in the fall of 2004, LOST looked doomed to be an expensive, disastrous plane crash of a TV show. Instead, LOST was a massive hit, debuting with the biggest audience for a new drama on ABC in over a decade, reaching heights of over 23 million viewers at its peak, and holding on to a hefty fan-base for its entire six-season run. The elements that made the series seem like a boondoggle proved, instead, to be a big part of its appeal. Audiences loved the exotic island setting, became invested in the morally compromised characters, and feverishly tried to unravel the show’s many mysteries. In LOST: Back to the Island, TV critics and veteran LOST recappers Emily St. James and Noel Murray revisit what made the show such a success and an object of enduring cultural obsession, twenty years later. Through essays, episode summaries, and cultural analysis, they take us back to the island and examine LOST’s lasting impact—and its complicated, sometimes controversial legacy—with a clear-eyed and lively investigation.

Lost Gardens of the World - Lawrence Sandra
A romantic journey through forty captivating gardens lost to time. All over the world, once-flourishing horticultural spaces have been abandoned and forgotten. From the once-crumbling grandeur of the Villa d’Este and the magic of the Lost Gardens of Heligan, to the sculptural surrealism of Las Pozas and the colourful rebirth of Le Jardin Majorelle, there are countless gardens around the world with fascinating stories to tell. Author and journalist Sandra Lawrence takes readers on a tour of 40 horticultural gems from around the world that have been lost either through neglect, abandonment or destruction. Many have been consigned to history, never to be seen again, while others have been revived and restored by the care and dedication of new owners and communities. These marvels of horticulture take many forms: stately homes, floating allotments, roof gardens and more. But all of them have one thing in common: the romance of paradise lost. Featuring one bespoke illustration of each garden by renowned artist Lucille Clerc, this book is a written celebration of our love of nature, and the importance of keeping these oases of green alive and well – if not in reality, then at least on the page. These charming gardens are brought back to life, including: The Lost Gardens of Heligan, England Las Pozas, Mexico Le Jardin Majorelle, Morocco The Garden of Dreams, Nepal Villa d’Este, Italy Paleis Het Loo, Netherlands Crowninshield Garden, USA Discover the remarkable stories behind the creation, decline and occasional rebirth of these astonishing spaces, and meet the people and societies that first created and enjoyed them. The perfect gift for garden lovers, armchair travellers and cultural enthusiasts.

In Search of Lost Time: Volume 1 - Marcel Proust
One of the greatest, most entertaining reading experiences in any language, Marcel Proust s In Search of Lost Time Vol. 1: The Way by Swann s is published in a new translation from the French by Lydia Davis in Penguin Classics.The Way by Swann s is one of the great novels of childhood, depicting the impressions of a sensitive boy of his family and neighbours, brought dazzlingly back to life by the famous taste of a madeleine. It contains the separate short novel, A Love of Swann s, a study of sexual jealousy that forms a crucial part of the vast, unfolding structure of In Search of Lost Time. This book established Proust as one of the greatest voices of the modern age - satirical, sceptical, confiding and endlessly varied in his responses to the human condition.Since the original pre-war translation Remembrance of Things Past by C. K. Scott Moncrieff and Terence Kilmartin, there has been no completely new rendering of Proust s French original into English. This translation brings to the fore a more sharply engaged, comic and lucid Proust. As the great story unfolds from its magical opening scenes to its devastating end, it is this Penguin Classics edition of In Search of Lost Time that makes Proust accessible to a new generation.Marcel Proust (1871-1922) is generally viewed as the greatest French novelist and perhaps the greatest European novelist of the 20th century. He lived much of his later life as a reclusive semi-invalid in a sound-proofed flat in Paris, giving himself over entirely to writing his masterpiece In Search of Lost Time (Ã la recherche du temps perdu).If you enjoyed In Search Of Lost Time, you might like James Joyce s Ulysses, also available in Penguin Modern Classics. The latest Penguin Proust is a triumph, and will bring this inexhaustible artwork to new audiences throughout the English-speaking world Sunday Telegraph

Shakespeare and Lost Plays - David McInnis
Shakespeare and Lost Plays returns Shakespeare s dramatic work to its most immediate and (arguably) pivotal context; by situating it alongside the hundreds of plays known to Shakespeare s original audiences, but lost to us. David McInnis reassesses the value of lost plays in relation to both the companies that originally performed them, and to contemporary scholars of early modern drama. This innovative study revisits key moments in Shakespeare s career and the development of his company and, by prioritising the immense volume of information we now possess about lost plays, provides a richer, more accurate picture of dramatic activity than has hitherto been possible. By considering a variety of ways to grapple with the problem of lost, imperceptible, or ignored texts, this volume presents a methodology for working with lacunae in archival evidence and the distorting effect of Shakespeare-centric narratives, thus reinterpreting our perception of the field of early modern drama.

Confidently Lost - Gavin Oattes
Heartfelt, honest and hugely comforting. Gavin writes beautifully, weaving calm (and most importantly, joy), through the chaos of modern living. A wise and perspective-shifting guide to making the most of your beautiful life. Â Donna Ashworth - Sunday Times bestselling author of Wild Hope and To The Women Not another self-help book promising â œfive steps to happiness.â This is a wake-up call, a rallying cry, and a much-needed hug all in one. Brace yourself for the book that flips self-help on its head and gives personal growth a much-needed shake-up. Renowned speaker and bestselling author, Gavin Oattes latest release, Confidently Lost, is not your typical guide to happiness. Instead, it s an unfiltered, deeply human exploration of what it means to fall apart and rebuild yourself - messy, unpredictable, and gloriously real. Born out of chaos and a lifequake moment that shattered his world in 2023, Confidently Lost offers a refreshingly honest take on navigating the aftermath of profound disruption. From unpacking the weight of grief to rediscovering joy in the smallest glimmers, Oattes delivers life lessons with humour, warmth, and the kind of raw vulnerability that feels like a friend grabbing you by the shoulders and saying, â œYou ve got this.â But Confidently Lost isn t just about survival, it s about thriving. Oattes draws readers into powerful reflections, challenging them to ditch perfection, embrace their inner anti-hero, and reclaim the magic of everyday moments. This isn t a book about having all the answers, it s about the courage to admit you re figuring it out as you go, and realising that s more than enough. A Book for Anyone Who s Ever Felt Stuck Using vivid storytelling and laugh-out-loud humour, Confidently Lost tackles universal themes: Letting go of the invisible rucksack of emotional baggage. Smashing the myth of â œhaving it all figured outâ and embracing life s chaos. Discovering the beauty in daydreams and the power of stillness. Breaking free from societal expectations (and the tyranny of the Joneses). Reclaiming joy, curiosity, and even the childlike wiggle that comes from pure excitement. Whether you re on the verge of a breakdown, in the middle of a breakthrough, or just figuring out what the hell to do next, Confidently Lost is here to remind you: you re not alone, and you re exactly where you need to be.
