lucincino zatloukani edward t welch

Někdy je opravdu těžké říct pravdu a přiznat, že jsme udělali něco špatně. Zároveň chceme, aby naše děti byly pravdomluvné. Chceme jim důvěřovat. Jak toho docílit? Tomu se věnuje knížka Lucinčino zatloukání. Je to knížka o selhání, vyznání, a především o radosti z pravdy a odpuštění. Lucinka Mývalová dostala pětku z testu z matematiky a cítí se hrozně. Jenže to není ta největší šlamastika – zalhala, protože se jí nechtělo učit, a teď zatlouká, aby se neprovalila pravda. Ed Welch pomocí úžasného příběhu od Jocelyn Flanders provádí děti procesem vyznání a prosby za odpuštění. Zároveň poukazuje na to, že hlavní roli v pravdomluvnosti dětí hraje jednání rodičů. A tak v závěru knížky Ed Welch vysvětluje, jak vytvořit milující bezpečné prostředí, ve kterém se oslavuje pravda a děti se nebojí přiznat chybu.

Mixing the contemporary with the ancient, MOSAICS spotlights ground-breaking emerging artist Cameron Welch.The inaugural monograph of multidisciplinary artist Cameron Welch presents a vivid, comprehensive look into a young artist’s practice. Welch’s work has straddled sculpture, collage, and textiles, but in early 2017, he shifted to mosaic as his primary medium. As a child, the artist was introduced to mosaic by his grandmother, an experience that has a lasting impact on the way he works the age-old medium to piece together disparate materials and histories. Welch treats mosaic as a physical manifestation of intertextuality, referring to the colliding contexts he unearths in the work as a kind of "infiltration."While Welch’s chosen medium evokes ancient traditions, the effect of his work is decidedly contemporary. His chaotic, jumbled compositions speak to the same anxiety felt in the Information Age, an era when unlimited information is available at the tap of a screen. Amidst the pictorial chaos of Welch’s mosaics, the figures who emerge range from familiar to foreign, comical to heroic. Frequently depicting himself and figures from his own life, Welch sheds light on unsung histories within the intricate topology of his creations.

Více zdravotní péče rovná se lepší zdraví? Ne! Právě naopak. Tvrdí to a v této knize dokazuje profesor v oboru medicíny H. Gilbert Welch. Podle něj až příliš mnoho lidí podstupuje screeningové testy a vyšetření se všemi škodlivými dopady. Na základě nepřiměřených, zbytečně poplašných diagnóz pak absolvují léčbu, kterou nepotřebují - a která jim v lepším případě neprospěje a v horším ublíží. Lidem se vnucuje představa, že vyhledávání zdravotní péče je nejdůležitějším prostředkem zachování zdraví a životní pohody. Welch upozorňuje, že s výjimkou akutní zdravotní péče je všechno jinak: -více informací někdy škodí (protože dotyčného vyděsí), -včasná diagnóza může ze vcelku zdravého jedince udělat předčasného pacienta, -snaha omezit rizika paradoxně vytváří rizika nová, -nové metody léčby nemusejí být nutně lepší (jsou jen nebezpečnější), -přehnané úsilí vyhnout se smrti může člověku zkazit celý život. Zkušený lékař a epidemiolog dochází k jednoznačnému závěru: hlavním problémem zdravotní péče je její nepatrná prospěšnost.

A magnificently illustrated study of skin in Renaissance Europe.People in the Renaissance saw skin differently from how we do today. The Europe of 1500 to 1700 was a world of humours, and skin – the clothing of the body – was thought to be dangerously porous.In this landmark book, Evelyn Welch explores Renaissance skin as a bodily surface, as physical matter and as a generator of new knowledge. Ranging across anatomy, surgery and sausage making, she reveals how skin was managed by physicians as well as by glovemakers, butchers and parchment makers. How did people protect their health in a changing global environment, one where the air itself could be pathogenic? How did they see their bodies in a world where there was suddenly a multiplicity of skin colours and decorations? Addressing these questions and more, Welch show us what happens when you see skin differently, either in the marketplace, where men and women from far-away lands were put on display, or under the microscope. In doing so, she reveals that the past had a distinctive and very different way of understanding bodily experiences.

The British and Russian royal families had just three full meetings before the Romanovs’ tragic end in 1918. In The Imperial Tea Party, Frances Welch draws back the curtain on those fraught encounters, which had far-reaching consequences for 20th-century Europe and beyond.Russia and Britain were never natural bedfellows. But the marriage, in 1894, of Queen Victoria’s favourite granddaughter, Alicky, to the Tsarevich Nicholas marked the beginning of an uneasy Anglo-Russian entente that would last until the Russian Revolution of 1917.The three extraordinary meetings that took place during those years, although generally hailed as successes, were beset by misunderstandings and misfortunes. The Tsar and Tsarina complained bitterly about the weather when staying at Balmoral, while British courtiers later criticised the Russians’ hospitality, from the food to the music to the slow service.In this wonderfully sharp account, Frances Welch presents a vivid snapshot of two dynasties at a time of social unrest. The families could not know, as they waved each other fond goodbyes from their yachts at Cowes in 1909, that they would never meet again.

Westernová novela Zima v krvi, zasazená do šedesátých let 20. století, uvádí čtenáře do života indiánské komunity v rezervaci Fort Belknap v severoamerickém státě Montana. Protagonistou příběhu a současně jeho vypravěčem je bezejmenný indiánský mladík, odcizený své rodině i zemi, ubíjený pocitem existenciální prázdnoty, před níž marně uniká ke kerouacovsky nevázanému životu plnému divokých jízd, alkoholu či náhodného sexu. Jeho výpravy do nepřátelského světa mimo rezervaci, zpočátku motivované opětovným získáním odcizených věcí, se však postupně proměňují v cesty za nalezením vlastní identity a štěstí. A jeho pouť jej navíc přivede k odhalení dávného rodinného tajemství… Novela je prvotinou klasika americké indiánské literatury Jamese Welche (1940-2003). Autor patřil k předním představitelům hnutí Native American Renaissance (L. M. Silková, L. Erdrichová ad.), jež se od konce šedesátých let minulého století podílelo na oživení historického a kulturního dědictví původních obyvatel Severní Ameriky. Na motivy knihy byl v roce 2013 natočen stejnojmenný film. České vydání doplňuje doslov amerikanisty Miroslava Černého, který zasazuje Welchovo dílo do kontextu soudobé americké literatury a současně stručně naznačuje jeho význam ve vztahu k literatuře s indiánskou tematikou dosud vydané v České republice.

In The Fleet Street Girls, Julie looks back at the steps that led to that moment, from the National Union of Journalists nearly calling a strike when she dared to write an article as a mere secretary (despite allowing men who weren''t journalists to write for the same pages), and many other battles in between. Julie also shines a light on the other trail-blazing women who were climbing the ladder against all odds, from Lynn Barber (of An Education fame) to Wendy Holden, a war correspondent for the Daily Telegraph, and many more, as well as some of the secretaries whom the men overlooked but who actually knew everything. Pioneers one and all. ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The lead guitarist of Grammy Award–winning mega-band KoRn tells the incredible story of his life after leaving the hardcore music scene and of God leading him back to the band—now in paperback.He left KoRn to help himself. He went back to help others. And along the way, he nearly lost everything.A life-changing spiritual awakening freed Brian “Head” Welch from a stranglehold of drugs and alcohol and prompted him to leave the highly successful nu-metal band KoRn in 2005. What followed was a decade-long trial by fire, from the perils of fathering a teen lost in depression and self-mutilation to the harsh realities of playing solo and surviving the shattering betrayal of a trusted friend. In this intensely inspiring redemption saga, perhaps most inspiring is Brian’s radical decision to rejoin KoRn and reconcile with the tribe of people he once considered family in the metal music scene.Brian returned to his musical roots with a clear head and a devoted heart. Though his story is wild, hilarious, and deeply poignant, the message is simple: God will love you into the freedom of being yourself, as long as you keep the relationship going and never, ever quit.

Edward III comes to life in a new version by playwright Octavio Solis. Written after England’s victory over the Spanish Armada in 1588, Edward III follows the exploits of King Edward III and his son Edward, the Black Prince of Wales. England dominates on the battlefield as the play explores questions of kinghood and chivalry through the actions of King Edward and his son. Octavio Solis’s translation of the play provides all of the complexity and richness of the original while renewing the allusions and metaphors lost through time. This translation of Edward III was written as part of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival’s Play On! project, which commissioned new translations of thirty-nine Shakespeare plays. These translations present work from “The Bard” in language accessible to modern audiences while never losing the beauty of Shakespeare’s verse. Enlisting the talents of a diverse group of contemporary playwrights, screenwriters, and dramaturges from diverse backgrounds, this project reenvisions Shakespeare for the twenty-first century. These volumes make these works available for the first time in print—a new First Folio for a new era.

Edward the Confessor was the son of King Aethelred the Unready of the House of Wessex. The family was exiled to Normandy when the Danish invaded England in 1013 but, with the nation in crisis on the death of King Harthacnut twenty-nine years later, Edward was named King of England, restoring the throne to English rule. Often portrayed as a holy simpleton, Edward was in fact a wily and devious king. For most kings a childless marriage would have been an Achilles'' heel, but Edward turned it to his advantage. He cunningly played off his potential rivals and successors, using the prize of the throne as leverage. Though his reign was peaceful, his death would wreak havoc. Bloody wars were waged, two claimants were cut down and William the Conqueror earned his name. Edward''s posthumous reputation grew as stories were spread by the monks of his magnificent foundation, Westminster Abbey. The childless king was transformed into a chaste, pious and holy man. Miracles were attributed to him and he was credited with the King''s Touch - the ability to cure illnesses by touch alone. In 1161 he was canonised as Saint Edward the Confessor and to this day he remains ... Unknown localization key: "more"

A teenage William Catesby leaves his studies to join the war effort. Parachuted into Occupied France as an SOE officer, he witnesses remarkable feats of bravery during the French Resistance. Yet he is also privy to infighting and betrayal - some of the Maquisards are more concerned with controlling the peace than fighting the war. Double agents and informers abound, and with torture a certainty if he is taken, Catesby knows there is no one he can trust. Passed from safe house to safe house, with the Abwehr on his tail, he is drawn towards Lyon, a city of backstreets and blind alleys.

Edward the Elder succeeded his father Alfred the Great to the kingdom of Wessex, but was largely overlooked by his contemporaries (at least in terms of the historical record) and to a greater or lesser extent by later historians. He is the forgotten son of Alfred. Edward deserves to be recognised for his contribution to Anglo-Saxon history and a new assessment of his reign is overdue. He proved equal to the task of cementing and extending the advances made by his father, and paved the way for the eventual unification of the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms and the nation-state of England. The course of English medieval history after his death was a direct outcome of military successes during his reign.Edward was a ruthlessly efficient military strategist and commander, a strong and stable ruler and administrator, and the most powerful figure during the early decades of the tenth century. He and his famous sister Æthelflæd constructed fortresses to guard against Viking attacks and Edward conquered the southern Danelaw. He should be acknowledged as a great Anglo-Saxon king in his own right, and is entitled to stand comparison with every English monarch in the millennium that has passed since his reign.

Hugh Despenser the Younger and Edward II tells the story of ‘the greatest villain of the fourteenth century’, his dazzling rise as favorite to the king and his disastrous fall.Born in the late 1280s, Hugh married King Edward I of England’s eldest granddaughter when he was a teenager. Ambitious and greedy to an astonishing degree, Hugh chose a startling route to power: he seduced his wife’s uncle, the young King Edward II, and became the richest and most powerful man in the country in the 1320s. For years he dominated the English government and foreign policy, and took whatever lands he felt like by both quasi-legal and illegal methods, with the king’s connivance. His actions were to bring both himself and Edward II down, and Hugh was directly responsible for the first forced abdication of a king in English history; he had made the horrible mistake of alienating and insulting Edward’s queen Isabella of France, who loathed him, and who had him slowly and grotesquely executed in her presence in November 1326.
