Legendární irský hrdina Sláine prochází dějinami - se zlodějským trpaslíkem po boku a se sekerou Mozkohryz v ruce. V každé epoše bojuje ve službách Bohyně za udržení starých pořádků, za živočišnost „barbarství“ a zachování kontaktu s přírodou... což je v protikladu s idejemi nastupujícího křesťanství, propagujícího zdrženlivost a odříkání. To není nic pro Sláina. Ve dvou epických příbězích se Sláine dostane do doby Robina Hooda, aby zachránil nové převtělení své věčné lásky Niamh - a následně se přenese do Anglie po pádu krále Artuše, aby dal dohromady ztracené poklady Británie a zachránil tak umírajícího krále a s ním i celou zemi. Legendární irský autor Pat Mills Sláinem přináší fascinující odpověď na conanovského barbara. V jeho příbězích se mísí historické detaily se starými legendami a anarchistickými postoji autora. K ruce mu je jako vždy výkvět kreslířů: Greg Staples, Dermot Power a Clint Langley. S nimi stvořil Pat Mills opravdu mistrovské dílo evropského komiksu. A nezdálo se mu to málo.

To be human is to experience fear, but what is it exactly that makes us fearful? Landscapes of Fear—written immediately after his classic Space and Place—is renowned geographer Yi-Fu Tuan’s influential exploration of the spaces of fear and of how these landscapes shift during our lives and vary throughout history.In a series of linked essays that journey broadly across place, time, and cultures, Tuan examines the diverse manifestations and causes of fear in individuals and societies: he describes the horror created by epidemic disease and supernatural visions of witches and ghosts; violence and fear in the country and the city; fears of drought, flood, famine, and disease; and the ways in which authorities devise landscapes of terror to instill fear and subservience in their own populations. In this groundbreaking work—now with a new preface by the author—Yi-Fu Tuan reaches back into our prehistory to discover what is universal and what is particular in our inheritance of fear. Tuan emphasizes that human fear is a constant; it causes us to draw what he calls our “circles of safety” and at the same time acts as a foundational impetus behind curiosity, growth, and adventure.

An engaging reassessment of the celebrated essayist and his relevance to contemporary readersMore than two centuries after his birth, Ralph Waldo Emerson remains one of the presiding spirits in American culture. Yet his reputation as the starry-eyed prophet of self-reliance has obscured a much more complicated figure who spent a lifetime wrestling with injustice, philosophy, art, desire, and suffering. James Marcus introduces readers to this Emerson, a writer of self-interrogating genius whose visionary flights are always grounded in Yankee shrewdness. This Emerson is a rebel. He is also a lover, a friend, a husband, and a father. Having declared his great topic to be “the infinitude of the private man,” he is nonetheless an intensely social being who develops Transcendentalism in the company of Henry David Thoreau, Margaret Fuller, Bronson Alcott, and Theodore Parker. And although he resists political activism early on—hoping instead for a revolution in consciousness—the burning issue of slavery ultimately transforms him from cloistered metaphysician to fiery abolitionist. Drawing on telling episodes from Emerson’s life alongside landmark essays like “Self-Reliance,” “Experience,” and “Circles,” Glad to the Brink of Fear reveals how Emerson shares our preoccupations with fate and freedom, race and inequality, love and grief. It shows, ... Unknown localization key: "more"
