nabokov s dozen thirteen stories vladimir nabokov

Thirteen strangely wrought, ingeniously crafted stories make up Nabokov's baker's dozen. In some of these stories shadowy people pass through, cooped up by life, with nowhere to escape to. Their dreams lie stifled, smothered by routine and repetition, and frustrations lurk in all the corners. In others, elusive glimpses of fleeting happiness, which flutter away before they can be snatched, waylay their victims. Like the shimmer of the sea, the gleam of a glass caught by the sun, they sparkle brilliantly only to dissolve again.

'Vladimir Nabokov was a literary genius' David Lodge'Of all my novels this bright brute is the gayest', Nabokov wrote of King, Queen, Knave. Comic, sensual and cerebral, it dramatizes an Oedipal love triangle, a tragi-comedy of husband, wife and lover, through Dreyer the rich businessman, his ripe-lipped ad mercenary wife Martha, and their bespectacled nephew Franz. 'If a resolute Freudian manages to slip in' - Nabokov darts a glance to the reader - 'he or she should be warned that a number of cruel traps have been set here and there...

No marriage of a major twentieth-century writer lasted longer than Vladimir Nabokov's. Vera Slonim shared his delight at the enchantment of life's trifles and literature's treasures, and he rated her as having the best and quickest sense of humour of any woman he had met. From their meeting in 1921, Vladimir's letters to his beloved Vera form a narrative arc that tells a forty-six year-long love story, and they are memorable in their entirety. Almost always playful, romantic, and pithy, the letters tell us much about the man and the writer; we see that Vladimir observed everything, from animals, faces, speech, and landscapes with genuine fascination.

Audiokniha: Výstřední zpověď čtyřicátníka Humberta Humberta o jeho zničující erotické posedlosti kouzlem „nymfičky“ Dolores Hazeové vzbudila krátce po svém vzniku bouři odporu i nemístná očekávání, aby pak zajistila svému autorovi celosvětový věhlas. Postupně začala být chápána jako mistrovsky komponované mnohovrstevné pojednání na téma smyslnosti, lásky a hříchu, prosycené pro Nabokova typickou slovní virtuozitou, humorem i ironií. Román Lolita zfilmoval roku 1962 režisér Stanley Kubrick a druhou filmovou adaptaci natočil roku 1997 Adrian Lyne s Jeremym Ironsem v hlavní roli Humberta Humberta. Vladimir Nabokov (1899-1977) Původem ruský a později americký prozaik a básník patří k nejvýznamnějším autorům 20. století, které obohatil skvostnými povídkami a úchvatnými romány jako Smích ve tmě, Lužinova obrana, Dar, Ve znamení levobočka, Bledý oheň či Ada aneb Žár. Mezi nejznámější z jeho knih patří právě Lolita (Odeon, 1991; Paseka, 2003), jejíž vydání provázely mnohé kontroverze – nakonec však dosáhla nebývalého úspěchu a byla dvakrát zfilmována. Nabokov se narodil se v Petrohradě, v roce 1919 prchla celá rodina před bolševiky na Západ. Absolvoval studium oboru slovanské a románské jazyky a literatury na cambridgeské Trinity College. Poté se zabydlel se v Berlíně, kde v roce 1926 vydal pod pseudonymem své první literární dílo, novelu Mášeňka. Až do roku 1938, ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Vladimir Nabokov's early novel is the dazzling story of the coarse, strange yet oddly endearing chess-playing genius Luzhin. Discovering his prodigious gift in boyhood and rising to the rank of International Grandmaster, Luzhin develops a lyrical passion for chess that renders the real world a phantom. As he confronts the fiery, swift-swooping Italian Grandmaster Turati, he brings into play his carefully devised defence. Making masterly play of metaphor and imagery, The Defense is the book that, of his early works, Nabokov felt 'contains and diffuses the greatest warmth'.

A beautiful hardcover edition of one of Nabokov’s greatest masterpieces, the fantastical love story that was the glorious culmination of his career as a novelist.This story of a man’s lifelong entanglement with his sister is not only a love story; it manages also to be a fairy tale, an epic, a philosophical treatise on the nature of time, a parody of the history of the novel, and an erotic catalogue. It concludes with an ingeniously sardonic appendix by the author, written under the anagrammatic pseudonym Vivian Darkbloom. Ada, or Ardor, published just after Nabokov’s seventieth birthday, is the supreme work of a virtuosic imagination at white heat.Nabokov is the most allusive and linguistically playful writer in English since Joyce, and like \"Pale Fire\" and \"Lolita,\" his new novel abounds in delightful minor parodies and pastiches, countless multilingual puns and literary jokes.Ada or Ardor is at its core a love story, the stuff that’s sold reams of pop music, and piles of books.

"Špatný autor životopisu retušuje svou minulost a výsledkem je fotografie, kterou pořídil cizí člověk, aby utěšil žal nad bolestnou ztrátou blízké osoby. Dobrý naopak dělá všechno, co je v jeho silách, aby zachoval podrobnosti s nejvyšší věrností." Tak charakterizuje memoárové psaní jeden z největších spisovatelů 20. století Vladimir Nabokov. Autobiografie Promluv, paměti, původně vydaná roku 1951 a zásadně přepracovaná o patnáct let později, je nejen dokladem jeho slov, ale také výsostným uměleckým dílem. Zachycuje Nabokovův život v rozpětí let 1903 až 1940, počínaje šťastným dětstvím v Rusku a konče emigrantským životem v Paříži a Berlíně. Kniha vyšla původně anglicky a autor sám ji přeložil do rodné ruštiny v přestávkách mezi lovem motýlů a psaním Lolity.

V příběhu redaktora Hugha Persona, který během dvaceti let navštěvuje jedno švýcarské městečko, se tvůrčí genialita potkává s tématem paměti, zločinu, lásky i šílenství. Jeden z nejvýznamnějších spisovatelů dvacátého století tak zpřítomňuje erbovní motivy a postupy, které známe z jeho předcházejícího díla. Doslov napsal Jiří Pelán. "Vladimir Nabokov, který celý život stavěl Tádž Mahal, se ve svých třiasedmdesáti letech rozhodl - pro své vlastní pobavení i pro naše potěšení - postavit jeho malou maketu." Těmito slovy přivítala v roce 1972 recenze v The New York Times Book Review vydání Nabokovovy elegantní novely Průzračné věci.

These masterly poems span the decades of Nabokov's career, from 'Music', written in 1914, to the short, playful 'To Vera', composed in 1974. 'The University Poem', one of Nabokov's major poetic works, is here in English for the first time: an extraordinary autobiographical poem looking back at his time at Cambridge, with its dinners, girls and memories, it is suffused with rich description, wit and verbal dexterity. Included too are the surreally comic 'A Literary Dinner', the enchanting, 'Eve', the wryly humorous 'An Evening of Russian Poetry' and a meditation on the act of creation, 'Tolstoy', as well as verse written on America, lepidoptery, sport, love and Nabokov's Russian homeland.

When Lolita was first published in 1955 it created a sensation and established Nabokov as one of the most original prose writers of the twentieth century. This annotated edition, a revised and considerably expanded version of the 1970 edition, does full justice to the textual riches of Lolita, illuminating the elaborate verbal textures and showing how they contribute to the novel''s overall meaning. Alfred Appel, Jr. also provides fresh observations on the novel''s artifice, games and verbal patternings and a delightful biographical vignette of Nabokov. The annotations themselves were prepared in consultation with Nabokov while newly identified allusions were confirmed by him during the final years of his life.

Vladimir Nabokov''s Lolita is one of the best-known novels of the 20th century: the controversial story of Humbert Humbert who falls in love with twelve year old Lolita, beautifully repackaged as part of the Penguin Essentials range.''Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins.

The darkly comic Transparent Things, one of Nabokov's final books, traces the bleak life of Hugh Person through murder, madness, prison and trips to Switzerland. One of these was the last journey his father ever took; on another, having been sent to ingratiate himself with a distinguished novelist, he met his future wife. Nabokov's brilliant short novel sinks into the transparent things of the world that surround this one Person, to the silent histories they carry.Remarkable even in Nabokov's work for its depth and lyricism, Transparent Things is a small, experimental marvel of memories and dreams, both sentimental and malign.

''In general Glory is my happiest thing.'' ''The fun of Glory is . . . to be sought in the echoing and linking of minor events, in back-and-forth switches, which produce an illusion of impetus; in an old daydream directly becoming the blessing of the ball hugged to one''s chest, or in the casual vision of Martin''s mother grieving beyond the time-frame of the novel in an abstraction of the future that the reader can only guess at, even after he has raced through the last seven chapters where a regular madness of structural twists and a masquerade of all characters culminate in a furious finale, although nothing much happens at the very end - just a bird perching on a wicket in the greyness of a wet day'' - Vladimir Nabokov

Nabokov described this novella, written in Paris in 1939 but only published twenty years later, as 'the first little throb of Lolita'. The plot is similar: a middle-aged man wedding an unattractive widow in order to indulge his paedophilic obsession with her daughter.However, The Enchanter has an utterly different atmosphere, as time, place and even names remain a mystery. Nabokov transforms his protagonist's attempts to lull his twelve-year-old step-daughter into a state of 'enchantment' into a graceful, chilling fairytale.

A Times Literary Supplement Book of the Year 2019The last major collection of Nabokov's published material, Think, Write, Speak brings together a treasure trove of previously uncollected texts from across the author's extraordinary career.Each phase of his wandering life is included, from a precocious essay written while still at Cambridge in 1921, through his fame in the aftermath of the publication of Lolita to the final, fascinating interviews given shortly before his death in 1977.Introduced and edited by his biographer Brian Boyd, this is an essential work for anyone who has been drawn into Nabokov's literary orbit. Here he is at his most inspirational, curious, playful, misleading and caustic. The seriousness of his aesthetic credo, his passion for great writing and his mix of delight and dismay at his own, sudden global fame in the 1950s are all brilliantly delineated.

Lužinovu postavu, hoci fiktívnu, kritici hodnotia ako najvernejšie zobrazeného Nabokovovho hrdinu. Lužin sa od detstva cíti cudzo vo svete, ktorý ho obklopuje, kým sa nestretne so šachom. Táto hra ho uchváti tak, že sa mu stáva životom. Po nesmiernych úspechoch však začne zlyhávať a prehrávať turnaje. Súperenie s Turantom pohltí všetky Lužinove myšlienky. V rovnakom čase stretáva svoju budúcu ženu a v jeho živote nastáva prelom. Počas partie s Turanom dostane porážku – v tej chvíli nazrie do hrôzy bezodného šachového sveta. Po tomto zážitku prestane hrať a ožení sa. Istý čas ide všetko normálne. No šachový svet ho nenechá na pokoji, Lužin sa ocitne v pasci, z ktorej niet úniku. Nabokov vykonštruoval dej knihy ako skutočný šachový útok, ktorý do základov ničí duševné zdravie úbohého hrdinu. No aj únik je pre Lužina prehrou, padá do priepasti, ktorá sa rozpadá na biele a čierne políčka a hrdina vidí, aká večnosť čaká práve naňho.

Nabokovov druhý po anglicky písaný román je originálne poňatým príbehom slobodného človeka v diktatúre. Jeho hlavný hrdina Adam Krug, najväčší filozof fiktívneho štátu ovládaného vzmáhajúcim sa totalitným režimom, je presvedčený, že ho medzinárodný ohlas a mravná odvaha ochráni pred krutosťami policajného štátu, v čele ktorého stojí jeho dávny nepriateľ zo školských čias. Nabokov sa v tomto antiutopickom románe prejavuje ako majster vedomia i podvedomia. Dielo je napísané svojským štýlom, ktorý je plný tajomstva so zameraním na presný detail. K náročnej téme pristupuje inak ako Arthur Koestler či George Orwell a prekvapuje čitateľov neočakávanými trikmi. Dej sa odohráva vo fiktívnom európskom štáte v 20. storočí, ktorý má črty Hitlerovho Nemecka a tiež sovietskeho režimu: štátna ideológia stanovuje identitu každého občana a odmieta akékoľvek odlišnosti jedného človeka od druhého. Štýl románu sa výrazne líši od ostatných autorových diel. Chýbajú obvyklé geografické a biografické koordináty, dielom sa nesie odraz všetkých totalitárnych režimov, ktorých podstata ťažila autora. Kniha bola preložená do viacerých jazykov, ale v slovenčine vychádza po prvýkrát.

S nadsázkou lze říci, že Nabokov měl kromě literatury tři velké vášně - šachy, motýly a filmy. Román, v němž umělecký kritik Albert Albinus zatouží po sedmnáctileté adeptce herectví Margot a rozehraje s ní vztahovou partii plnou ochromující posedlosti, jako by byl poctou právě filmovému médiu. Ostatně první ruské vydání tohoto díla v roce 1932 neslo pojmenování Kamera obskura, tedy "temná komora". Autor jej po šesti letech přeložil do angličtiny pod názvem Smích ve tmě, přičemž jeho slávu stvrdila i stejnojmenná filmová adaptace z roku 1969. V knize, která na čtenáře působí stejně podmanivou silou jako příšeří biografu, splétá spisovatel tkanivo psychologického thrilleru o nevyváženém milostném vztahu, v němž se z lovce stává kořist. Vykresluje tak kontury dramatu, které se stane předzvěstí skandální Lolity. Doslov napsal Jiří Kratochvil.

'A great work of art, radiant and rapturous, affirming the power of love and imagination' The New York Times Book ReviewAda or Ardor is a romance that follows Ada from her first childhood meeting with Van Veen on his uncle's country estate, in a 'dream-bright' America, through eighty years of rapture, as they cross continents, are continually parted and reunited, come to learn the strange truth about their singular relationship and, decades later, put their extraordinary experiences into words. Written in mischievous and magically flowing prose, Nabokov's longest, richest novel is a love story, but also a fairy tale, a historical parody, an erotic satire, an exploration of the passing of time and a supreme work of the imagination.

''One of the greatest books I''ve ever read.

"Rozsudek smrti byl v souladu se zákonem oznámen Cincinnatovi C. šeptem." V žádné jiné ze svých próz se Nabokov nepřiblížil literárnímu světu Franze Kafky tak jako v Pozvání na popravu. Zjitřené vnímání společenské látky se tu spojuje s pocitem hlubokého existenciálního traumatu, jež má obecný charakter a o to více promlouvá k současnému čtenáři. Mladý hrdina čeká na svou popravu, přičemž není zcela zřejmá ani povaha jeho skutečného provinění, ani bližší okolnosti chystané exekuce. V tomto svíravém rámci jde odsouzenci o jediné - vymezit se vůči netečnosti světa prostřednictvím vlastního psaní. Román pochází z Nabokovova "ruského" období, tedy z doby, kdy autor již nežil ve své vlasti, ale byl součástí široké ruské diaspory v Evropě. Přestože se příběh odehrává ve fiktivním prostředí, odkaz k mašinérii stalinské hrůzovlády je nepopiratelný. Kniha je tak považována za stěžejní dílo ruské literatury 20. století. Román doprovází doslov literárního vědce Richarda Müllera.

Berlin, in the words of Philip Hensher, editor of this anthology, ''has always been a city of desperate modernity'', both in terms of urban architecture - largely a creation of the progressive 19th century, laid waste by World War II, temporary home of the infamous Wall - and in ways of living and behaving. As early as the 1920s it was the gay capital of Europe; the Communist East/free West barrier presented unique problems for a divided population; and in the 1990s, in the aftermath of reunification, the cheap, run-down city became a vibrant centre for creative artists. ''The sense of making it up as you go along is never far away in Berlin.'' The stories in this volume are the product of this series of multiple rebirths from the viewpoint of both insiders and outsiders. From pre- 1914 there are contributions from Theodor Fontane and Robert Walser; from the Weimar Republic, Alexander Döblin, Vladimir Nabokov, Erich Kästner, Ernst Haffner, Irmgeud Keun and Christopher Isherwood; from the Third Reich, Thomas Wolfe, Hans Fallada and Heinz Rein; from the Cold War era, Peter Schneider, Thomas Brussig, Len Deighton, Christa Wolf and Ian McEwan; from post-reunification, Günter Grass, Wladimir Kaminer, Chloe Aridjis, ...

Since 1981, when Alasdair Gray''s first novel Lanark was published by Canongate, his characters have aged as fast as their author. The Ends of Our Tethers shows the high jinks of many folk in the last stages of physical, moral and social decrepitude - a sure tonic for the young. The first work of fiction in over six years by one of Britain''s most original and brilliant writers, this wonderful (and very funny) new collection reaffirms Gray''s position as a master of the short story. The Ends of Our Tethers is vintage Gray - experimental, mischievous, wide-ranging but also subtly connected. And as always the work is hallmarked with his highly engaging prose style, dry wit and fecund imagination. These thirteen tales challenge prejudice, question social imbalances and explore human foibles. In ''No Bluebeard'', a socially reclusive man, veteran of three marriages, meets a disturbed and eccentric woman desperate to remain hidden from her family. In ''Job''s Skin Game'' a father develops a skin condition in response to the emotional shock of losing his two sons in the September 11th attacks and his fortune in the dot-com crisis. The exquisite pleasure he takes from scratching and peeling his dead epidermis ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Od vzniku ručních palných zbraní koncem 14. století byla střelba značně komplikovaná, protože zbraně byly předovky, nabíjely se ústím hlavně, odděleně prachem a střelou. Složitým zůstával zápal výmetné náplně, tvořené černým prachem. Vznik jednotných nábojů a zadovek v polovině 19. století střelbu značně zjednodušil. Zbraň se začala nabíjet nábojem do komory. Jediným pohybem se do komory zasunula střela, výmetná náplň a zápalka, spojené nábojnicí do jednoho celku. Nábojnice zároveň utěsňuje při výstřelu komoru vůči závěru. Náboje se začaly odlišovat nejen podle způsobu využití, ale také způsobem výroby a prodeje. Vedle průmyslově vyráběných nábojů se objevují náboje experimentální, jejichž vývoj se z různých důvodů nepodařilo dokončit. Stále se rozšiřuje počet wildcatů a vznikají náboje soukromé (proprietární). Existující počet konstrukcí nábojů, odborně nazývaných "rážemi", se dnes již odhaduje na více než 10 000. Tento vysoký počet ráží se stal předmětem velmi rozšířeného sběratelství nábojů.
