Komiksová legenda Alan Moore (STRÁŽCI, Z PEKLA) a geniální umělec Jacen Burrows představují mrazivý příběh lovecraftovského hororu! Brearsová a Lamper, dva mladí a nafoukaní agenti FBI vyšetřují sérii čerstvých rituálních vražd nějak spojenou s posledním tajným posláním Aldo Saxe - kdysi zlatým hochem FBI, nyní odsouzeným vrahem a chovancem ve věznici s maximální ostrahou. Podle Saxova výslechu (kdy mluví výlučně nelidským jazykem) a podle informací z razie související s drogami v pochybném klubu pomalovaném kouzelnými symboly a s hudbou z jiného světa, očekávají, že jsou na stopě něčeho hrůzostrašného… ale nic je nedokáže připravit na příšerné šílenství a nevyslovitelné hrůzy, kterým budou čelit v malém přístavním městě Salem. NEONOMIKON obsahuje komiksovou sérii Alana Moora z roku 2010, včetně původní povídky, VNITROBLOK, která popisuje tragické setkání Aldo Saxe s (poněkud) smrtelnými agenty Starých Bohů!

V letech 1983-1987 mladý britský scenárista jménem Alan Moore zmodernizoval americký komiks. Jeho přelomové pojetí Bažináče nastavilo nové standardy pro grafické vyprávění a vyvolalo v komiksovém médiu malou revoluci. Navázal na rámec gotického hororu svých předchůdců a umocnil jej intuitivním stylem vyprávění a bezprecedentní hloubkou postav. Moorovu vizi pak realizovali znepokojivě krásnou kresbou takoví spolupracovníci jako Stephen Bissette, John Totleben, Dan Day a Rick Veitch. Výsledkem je mistrovské dílo odolávající zubu času. V tomto prvním ze šesti dílů Moorovy Ságy o Bažináčovi jsou sebrány sešity 20-28. Svazek obsahuje rovněž předmluvu známého hororového autora Ramseyho Campbella a úvod od spolutvůrce a redaktora původní série Lena Weina.

Podle Saxova výslechu (kdy mluví výlučně nelidským jazykem) a podle informací z razie související s drogami v pochybném klubu pomalovaném kouzelnými symboly a s hudbou z jiného světa, očekávají, že jsou na stopě něčeho hrůzostrašného… ale nic je nedokáže připravit na příšerné šílenství a nevyslovitelné hrůzy, kterým budou čelit v malém přístavním městě Salem.

In Art Worker: Doing Time in the New York Art World, Alan W. Moore weaves stories of a New York downtown art scene collectively engaged in provocative anti-curation and television production to bridge boundaries between art and the wider world. On New York in the ''70s and ‘80s, a dense cultural ecology that birthed of video art, punk, hip-hop, anti-curation and so much more. The long rolling crescendo of Art Worker comes in Alan W. Moore’s discussion of the expansive art scene around Collaborative Projects (Colab) that had its heyday from 1977 to the mid-1980s. Colab, situated in New York’s downtown art scene, was a collective that engaged in provocative anti-curation and television production in efforts to bridge boundaries between art and the wider world. Moore’s accounting makes this a very personal story. He allows us alongside him and his friends and comrades as they make things that will eventually be called “historical” – the Real Estate Show, the Times Square Show – exhibitions Colab produced that were key events for some art history. Moore entangles them within an expansive linear narrative that starts with summers of love spent tramping in Europe and days of wonder doing radical cultural programming ...

In October 1835, Samuel Burrows was slowly dying. Suffering from liver disease, the 63-year-old knew he had little time left to confess his sins. The Reverend William Clarke offered Burrows some religious guidance so he could attempt to salvage Burrows’s soul before the eyes of God. He knew the struggle that fell before him; after all, it was not every day that Clarke had to provide religious comfort to a man who had sent around 53 individuals to meet their maker. Burrows felt little remorse for his actions. In his view, the law was the law and they deserved their final punishment, a punishment which also provided Burrows with some much-needed income. Clarke spent a week with Burrows as he died. He attempted to help Burrows examine his life and career as Chester’s Hangman.

In 1972, when the packing and crating for a major exhibition made it impossible for him to work in his sculpture studios, Henry Moore retreated to a small studio that looks out on a sheep meadow. Over the course of several months, as sheep were suckled and sheared, Moore produced this delightful flock of sketches and drawings. Sheep are as much a commonplace of the English countryside as hedgerows, but Moore looked at them afresh. Here are ewes nurturing their lambs, lambs playing in the meadow, and the swollen stateliness of sheep with full coats of wool. Many of the sketches evoke themes that are important in all Moore''s work. The depiction of a ewe and lamb, for instance, suggests the mother-and-child theme often evoked in Moore''s sculpture by a large form sheltering a smaller one. Henry Moore presented the sketchbook to his daughter, Mary. In this facsimile edition, first created under Moore''s personal supervision, Mary''s little lambs will charm anyone who sees these tender, vigorous drawings.

The Falkland Islands had been invaded and a Task Force was already steaming south at full speed. On board the carriers were the Harriers that would provide essential aerial cover for the British troops and ships sent to re-capture the islands. They would be entering particularly hostile territory, and the type’s capabilities had urgently to be expanded and proved. This was a job that Ron Burrows and the test pilots of his elite Fighter Test Squadron at Boscombe Down were ready to take on. From the 1960s through to the 1990s, Ron test-flew all of the RAF’s fast-jets of the era, in the process of which he survived two crash landings and two emergency ejections, as well as numerous other close shaves. A master of his craft, he rose to become the Aeroplane and Armament Experimental Establishment’s chief test pilot – and this is his remarkable story. With four test flying tours under his belt and close-air-support missions flying Hunters in the Aden Emergency, Ron’s experiences extended throughout the critical final decades of the Cold War. Ron was a graduate of the US Navy’s test pilot school and in his long career he has flown an unusually broad range of ... Unknown localization key: "more"

During her lifetime Marianne Moore was that rarest of combinations, a genuine leader in the art of poetry, as well as a bona fide celebrity. She was an instantly recognisable symbol of Brooklyn, New York, appearing on the cover of Life magazine, asked by the Ford Motor Company to christen their new family sedan, and by the New York Yankees to throw the opening pitch of their baseball season. However, because of Moore’s restless, seldom-ceasing, decade-spanning revision of her own poems, creating a ‘stable’ text of her work has posed editors a challenge ever since. Moore tackled the problem herself: Complete Poems (1967) was her own selection, but she favoured the later work, including less than half of her output up to that point. ‘Omissions are not accidents,’ she wrote pointedly in that edition, but for some readers the absence of more than one hundred poems constituted a wilful neglect of her startlingly innovative, highly influential early work, and contributed to Moore’s undervaluing as a ‘modernist’ poet. Marianne Moore scholar Heather Cass White has prepared an edition of poems that, for the first time, presents the full range of Moore’s work in its published order, while honouring the complex textual ...

Prayer is a word we take for granted but what do we mean by prayer? Almost always when we talk about prayer we refer to something we DO. But Burrows argues that our Christian knowledge assures us that prayer is essentially what God DOES. And what God is doing for us is giving us the Divine Self in love. This is the vision of a contemplative nun who contradicts the heresy of so much modern spiritual writing. The growing fascination in the contemplative and monastic life is evidence of the profound appeal of this approach. For this there is a real hunger. Ultimately, we live for God and not for ourselves.
