Mathematics of the Breath and the Way - Charles Bukowski
In The Mathematics of the Breath and the Way, Charles Bukowski considers the art of writing, and the art of living as writer. Bringing together a variety of previously uncollected stories, columns, reviews, introductions, and interviews, this book finds him approaching the dynamics of his chosen profession with cynical aplomb, deflating pretensions and tearing down idols armed with only a typewriter and a bottle of beer. From numerous tales of the author's adventures at poetry readings, parties, film sets, and bars, to an unprecedented gathering of Bukowski's singular literary criticism, the author discusses his writing practices and his influences. The Mathematics of the Breath and the Way is a perfect guide to the man behind the myth and the disciplined artist behind the boozing brawler.

The Life and Lies of Charles Dickens - Helena Kelly
Think you already know the story of Charles Dickens' life? Think again. Almost everything you're familiar with was first mentioned in an authorised biography written by Dickens' close friend John Forster 150 years ago. It's the version of events that Dickens himself chose to make public, and newly accessible archives reveal that it's crammed with gaps, inconsistencies, and outright lies. There's the sister whose existence Dickens kept secret and the Jewish relations whose faith he strove to conceal. There's plagiarism, fraud, and suicide. And that's only for starters. Helena Kelly, author of the acclaimed Jane Austen, the Secret Radical, retells Dickens' story from his childhood to his deathbed, uncovers the truths he tried to keep hidden, and offers a fresh - and deeply troubling - perspective on the man who remains one of Britain's best-known novelists. You won't be able to look at him - or his work - in the same way again.

In The Way of the Hermit, seventy-four-year-old Ken Smith recounts a life he has chosen to spend alone with the wilderness.Ken Smith has spent the past four decades in the Scottish Highlands. He lives alone, with no electricity or running water. His home is a log cabin nestled near Loch Treig, known as 'the lonely loch', where he lives off the land: he fishes for his supper, chops his own wood, and even brews his own tipple. He is, in the truest sense of the word, a hermit.For the first time, Ken shares the story of his life. From his working-class origins in Derbyshire, to the formative years he spent travelling in the Yukon and finally how he came to be the Hermit of Loch Treig. Looking back through decades of diary entries, Ken reflects upon the reasons he turned his back on society, the vulnerability of old age and the awe and wonder of a life lived in nature. The Way of the Hermit is a humorous, transcendent and life-affirming memoir.

The Way of the Champion - Paul Rabil
Long before Paul Rabil had become lacrosses''s most acclaimed player, the sport''s first million-dollar man, and the cofounder of the Premier Lacrosse League, he always strove for greatness. The problem was he lacked a manual for how to achieve it - so, he set out to create one himself. He talked to Bill Belichick about how to prepare, Steph Curry about how to practice, Sue Bird about how to develop resilience, and Mark Cuban about how to build a career with longevity. From the wisdom of these and other legends, and through his own - often painful - trial and error, he forged himself into a true champion. And in doing so, he wrote the manual he always wanted. The Way of The Champion is the synthesis of everything Rabil learned on his path to becoming one of the greatest lacrosse players of all time. But this is not merely a sports book. It is a guide to embodying a champion''s mindset - in sports, in business, and in relationships. According to Paul Rabil, ''No one is born to be a champion. It can only be earned -through equal parts philosophy, execution, and sheer determination. I''ve won and lost championships, business deals, and relationships. I''ve learned that our best moments come after we''ve faced our most devastating defeats - when we choose to rise with unwavering resolve. That''s the way of the champion.''

Faktótum - Charles Bukowski
V jednom z nejlepších románů Charlese Bukowského sledujeme, jak Henry Chinaski, autorovo alter ego, prožívá období druhé světové války. Když jej nevezmou do armády, vydává se napříč Amerikou, od jednoho města ke druhému, střídá špatně placená zaměstnání, dělá si nové, bizarní známosti a především: pije a přemýšlí nad nesmyslností života. Faktótum mistrovsky evokuje autorův život i dobu a nadchne nejen Bukowského oddané čtenáře, nýbrž i ty, kteří se s tímto velkým americkým autorem dosud neseznámili. Charles Bukowski : Do širšího povědomí čtenářů se dostal v 60. letech, s nástupem tzv. malých časopisů, které dávaly prostor nezávislé, proti establishmentu zaměřené tvorbě. Svým bohémským životním stylem a nevybíravým politickým slovníkem si vysloužil pozornost agentů FBI a několikrát pobyl ve vězení, především za výtržnictví. Zemřel roku 1994 jako kultovní a světově uznávaný autor a počet jeho čtenářů po celém světě stále roste.

Hollywood - Charles Bukowski
I tento Bukowského román vypráví autorovo alter ego Henry Chinaski, tentokrát se však s ním a jeho ženou Sarah dostáváme do poněkud nezvyklého prostředí: do hollywoodských filmových studií. Chinaski totiž pro Hollywood píše autobiografický scénář - a v průběhu psaní se setkává s všemožnou filmovou i společenskou smetánkou, od pohledných a povolných hereček přes slavné režiséry po velké spisovatele. Ti všichni jsou přitom pro autora terčem sžíravé ironie. Netřeba dodávat, že i u tohoto románu si přijdou na své příznivci svérázného Bukowského stylu - i zde hlavní hrdina ze všech sil děvkaří, sází na dostizích, excesivně konzumuje alkohol a vůbec všeobecně zanedbává životosprávu a dobré mravy: Chinaski se zkrátka nezmění ani v Hollywoodu.

Jelito - Charles Bukowski
Drsňák Hank Chinaski líčí své dospívání v Los Angeles, poznamenané despotickým otcem, šikanou ve škole, bídou za hospodářské krize a narůstajícím pocitem odcizení, jemuž čelil vzdorem, násilím a únikem do světa literatury. Tento nejlepší Bukowského román je vyprávěn s typickým gustem a ironickým humorem, navíc dokonale vykresluje atmosféru doby. Anglický název Ham on Rye odkazuje nejen na tehdejší typickou svačinu do školy (žitný sendvič se šunkou) a obrazně i vypravěčův pocit stísněnosti, ale také na Salingerův román Kdo chytá v žitě. V neposlední řadě tím ovšem Bukowski naráží na svůj styl psaní (a ham writer on rye whiskey, tj. "přehánějící neumětel na žitné") - a tuto sebeironii se snaží zachytit nový překlad Boba Hýska. Do širšího povědomí čtenářů se dostal v 60. letech, s nástupem tzv. malých časopisů, které dávaly prostor nezávislé, proti establishmentu zaměřené tvorbě. Svým bohémským životním stylem a nevybíravým politickým slovníkem si vysloužil pozornost agentů FBI a několikrát pobyl ve vězení, především za výtržnictví.

Škvár - Charles Bukowski
Poslední dokončené dílo Charlese Bukowského, vydané krátce po jeho smrti roku 1994, se už svým názvem hlásí k žánru literárního braku. Využívá četné stereotypy šestákových románů a dovádí je ad absurdum. Bukowskému nezáleží na dokonalé konstrukci detektivní zápletky, spíš se vyžívá v barvitých popisech odvrácené tváře Los Angeles. Bukowski se rozloučil ve velkém stylu - v tomto případě se pro jeho román nadchli nejen čtenáři, ale i kritici.

O psaní - Charles Bukowski
Výbor z Bukowského korespondence ukazuje oblíbeného autora z jiné stránky: dopisy přátelům, redaktorům i kolegům, chronologicky řazené, se dotýkají především tématu psaní. Zachycují jednak pomalu se rozvíjející Bukowského tvůrčí kariéru "zevnitř", očima autora, který líčí, jak začínal poezií v malých časopisech, jak na dlouhá léta psaní úplně přerušil, protože propil psací stroj; jak na jeho možnosti psát působila jeho zaměstnání i lidé kolem něj. Současně čtenář objevuje jakýsi autorský manifest, který Bukowski neformuluje jako prohlášení pro veřejnost rozepsané do okázale formulovaných tvůrčích zásad: spíše mezi řádky čteme autorova zaujetí "pro svůj způsob", přezíravost vůči mainstreamovému "správnému psaní" i rigidním zásadám literárních škol. Navzdory takovému zdánlivě ledabylému postoji je zřejmé, jak důležité psaní pro Bukowského bylo a s jakou vážností se mu věnoval.

On Love - Charles Bukowski
In On Love, we see Charles Bukowski reckoning with the complications of love and desire. Alternating between the tough and the tender, the romantic and the gritty, Bukowski exposes the myriad faces of love in the poems collected here - its selfishness and its narcissism, its randomness, its mystery and its misery, and, ultimately, its true joyfulness, endurance and redemptive power.Whether writing about his daughter, his lover, or his work, Bukowski is fiercely honest and reflective, using love as a prism to look at the world and to view his own vulnerable place in it.

Catalogue of the Late Roman, Byzantine and Barbaric Coins in the Charles University Collection (364 - 1092 A.D.) - Federico Gambacorta - e-kniha
eBook: Je velkým problémem sbírek archeologické či historické povahy, nejenom mincí, pokud nejsou publikační formou prezentovány odborné veřejnosti. Prezentovat skupinu mincí zveřejněných v tomto katalogu znamená nejen je chránit jako veřejný majetek jedné konkrétní univerzity, ale dát je k dispozici celé vědecké společnosti a tím umožnit pokrok v oblasti historických a numismatických studií. V práci Federica Gambacorty lze proto uvítat významné rozšíření publikovaného numismatického materiálu ve vlastnictví Univerzity Karlovy. Tato práce důstojně navazuje na dílo V. Marka, který před více než čtvrtstoletím podnikl první krok k publikaci univerzitní mincovní sbírky. Oproti původnímu rozhodnutí věnovat se pouze pozdně římským mincím autor do svého zpracování zahrnul rovněž mince byzantské a barbarské. Tento katalog seznamuje publikum se skupinou mincí, které byly samy o sobě hlavními postavami a svědky doby, kdy byly vytvořeny. Mince narozdíl od jiných kategorií objektů byla používána na všech společenských úrovních a všude dokázala předat srozumitelné informace i těm, kteří neuměli číst. Obrazy na nich zpodobených vládnoucích císařů, členů císařské rodiny, dědiců a ručitelů kontinuity a stálosti říše tyto osoby umožňují rozpoznat a představují vhodné modely k napodobení u poddaných všech tříd. Jiná vyobrazení na reverzu mají za účel uklidňovat uživatele ohledně úsilí císaře o zajištění míru, solidnosti institucí, neporušenosti hranic. V poslední fázi říše se množí legendy oslavující vítěze císařů, slávu Římanů, bezpečnost státu, obnovu státu, zdraví státu a concordie císařů s vyobrazením Říma na trůně a se symboly moci. Typy a legendy na mincích nás informují o sociálních a náboženských změnách, které proběhly ve struktuře římské říše v době od Konstantina Velikého a dále. Byzantské mince a mince vyráběné Ostrogóty v Itálii v posledním století výroby mincí před krizí, která v západní části starého římského impéria způsobí zmizení mince, se prakticky od mincí římských neliší.

Brideshead Revisited: The Sacred and Profane Memories of Captain Charles Ryder - Evelyn Waugh
Brideshead Revisited is Evelyn Waugh''s stunning novel of duty and desire set amongst the decadent, faded glory of the English aristocracy in the run-up to the Second World War.The most nostalgic and reflective of Evelyn Waugh''s novels, Brideshead Revisited looks back to the golden age before the Second World War. It tells the story of Charles Ryder''s infatuation with the Marchmains and the rapidly disappearing world of privilege they inhabit. Enchanted first by Sebastian Flyte at Oxford, then by his doomed Catholic family, in particular his remote sister, Julia, Charles comes finally to recognise his spiritual and social distance from them.Evelyn Waugh (1903-66) was born in Hampstead, second son of Arthur Waugh, publisher and literary critic, and brother of Alec Waugh, the popular novelist. In 1928 he published his first work, a life of Dante Gabriel Rossetti, and his first novel, Decline and Fall, which was soon followed by Vile Bodies (1930), A Handful of Dust (1934) and Scoop (1938). In 1939 he was commissioned in the Royal Marines and later transferred to the Royal Horse Guards, serving in the Middle East and in Yugoslavia. In 1942 he published Put Out More Flags and then in 1945 Brideshead Revisited. Men at Arms (1952) was the first volume of ''The Sword of Honour'' trilogy, and won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize; the other volumes, Officers and Gentlemen and Unconditional Surrender, followed in 1955 and 1961.If you enjoyed Brideshead Revisited, you might like Waugh''s Vile Bodies, also available in Penguin Classics.''Lush and evocative ...

The Way of the Strangers: Encounters with the Islamic State (Defekt) - Wood Graeme
A radical rethinking of what ISIS is and what it really wants From Graeme Wood, author of the explosive Atlantic cover story "What ISIS Really Wants," comes the definitive book on the history, psychology, character, and aims of the Islamic State. Based on Wood's unprecedented access to supporters, recruiters, and high-ranking members of the most infamous jihadist group in the world, The Way of the Strangers is a riveting, fast-paced deep dive into the apocalyptic dogma that informs the group's worldview, from the ideas that motivate it, to the "fatwa factory" that produces its laws, to its very specific plans for the future. By accepting that ISIS truly believes the end is nigh, we can understand its strategy-and predict what it will do next.

Příběhy obyčejného šílenství - Charles Bukowski
Čtyřiatřicet povídek z neobyčejně plodného období v životě Charlese Bukowského, konce šedesátých a začátku sedmdesátých let. Tehdy svými provokativními texty pravidelně zásoboval undergroundové časopisy, aby nonkonformním, drsně originálním stylem reflektoval své existenciální zoufalství, pijáckou samotu, smysl pro laškovnou perverzi a morbidní humor, ale i silnou potřebu lásky a upřímnosti. Samozvaný "starý prasák" americké literatury ve svých povídkách brázdí bary, kriminály, milostná lože i psychiatrické léčebny, přežívá v drsných ulicích velkoměst, upíjí se k smrti, ubíjí prací, užírá láskou. Rád se oddává podivuhodným formám sexu, s gustem trousí životní moudra, tepe do literátů i politiků, utahuje si z hippies, je pronásledován šíleným ložním prádlem.

The Children of Athena - Charles Freeman
A compelling and fascinating portrait of the continuing intellectual tradition of Greek writers and thinkers in the Age of Rome.In 146 BC, Greece yielded to the military might of the Roman Republic; sixty years later, when Athens and other Greek city-states rebelled against Rome, the general Lucius Cornelius Sulla destroyed the city of Socrates and Plato, laying waste to the famous Academy where Aristotle had studied. However, the traditions of Greek cultural life would continue to flourish during the centuries of Roman rule that followed, in the lives and work of a distinguished array of philosophers, doctors, scientists, geographers, travellers and theologians.Charles Freeman''s accounts of such luminaries as the physician Galen, the geographer Ptolemy and the philosopher Plotinus are interwoven with contextual ''interludes'' that showcase a sequence of unjustly neglected and richly influential lives. Like the author''s The Awakening, The Children of Athena is a cultural history on an epic scale: the story of a rich and vibrant tradition of Greek intellectual inquiry across a period of more than five hundred years, from the second century BC to the start of the fifth century AD.

The Origin of Species - Charles Darwin
Charles Darwin's classic that exploded into public controversy, revolutionized the course of science, and continues to transform our views of the world. Few other books have created such a lasting storm of controversy as The Origin of Species. Darwin's theory that species derive from other species by a gradual evolutionary process and that the average level of each species is heightened by the "survival of the fittest" stirred up popular debate to fever pitch. Its acceptance revolutionized the course of science. As Sir Julian Huxley, the noted biologist, points out in his illuminating introduction, the importance of Darwin's contribution to modern scientific knowledge is almost impossible to evaluate: "a truly great book, one which can still be read with profit by professional biologist." Includes an Introduction by Sir Julian Huxley

The Descent of Man - Charles Darwin
In The Descent of Man Darwin addresses many of the issues raised by his notorious Origin of Species: finding in the traits and instincts of animals the origins of the mental abilities of humans, of language, of our social structures and our moral capacities, he attempts to show that there is no clear dividing line between animals and humans. Most importantly, he accounts for what Victorians called the 'races' of mankind by means of what he calls sexual selection. This book presents a full explanation of Darwin's ideas about sexual selection, including his belief that many important characteristics of human beings and animals have emerged in response to competition for mates.This was a controversial work. Yet Darwin tried hard to avoid being branded as a radical revolutionary. He is steeped in Victorian sensibilities regarding gender and cultural differences: he sees human civilization as a move from barbarous savagery to modern gentlefolk, and women as more emotional and less intellectual than men, thus providing a biological basis for the social assumptions and prejudices of the day.The Descent of Man played a major role in the emergence of social Darwinism. This complete version of the first edition gives the modern reader an unparalleled opportunity to engage directly with Darwin's proposals, launched in the midst of continuing controversy over On the Origin of Species. Janet Browne is the author of the prize-winning biography, Charles Darwin: Voyaging and Charles Darwin: The Power of Place.

The Origin of Species - Charles Darwin
With an Introduction by Jeff Wallace. 'A grain in the balance will determine which individual shall live and which shall die...'. Darwin's theory of natural selection issued a profound challenge to orthodox thought and belief: no being or species has been specifically created; all are locked into a pitiless struggle for existence, with extinction looming for those not fitted for the task.Yet The Origin of Species (1859) is also a humane and inspirational vision of ecological interrelatedness, revealing the complex mutual interdependencies between animal and plant life, climate and physical environment, and - by implication - within the human world. Written for the general reader, in a style which combines the rigour of science with the subtlety of literature, The Origin of Species remains one of the founding documents of the modern age.
