From clay to kiln and all the techniques in-between, this book is an exploration into the techniques and processes of over forty-five working ceramicists.Earth and fire represent the two elements that produce a ceramic object. Without the other they are simply components; together they create both practical objects and pieces of art. Working as both primer and inspiration, Earth & Fire explores the techniques, practices and tools of over forty-five working ceramicists.Creating everything from wood-fired and fine porcelain wares; sculptured vases; everyday cups, bowls, and plates; to jewelry and wall pieces, these artists work in a wide range of styles and mediums to create their ceramics. Although the methods vary, the overall sentiment is that the earth and fire that the artists use to make their objects are the ultimate masters. Just when they think they know one thing, the clay, glaze and heat will teach them another. There will always be more to learn. Working with clay is, quite simply, humbling.Written and compiled by Kylie Johnson and Tiffany Johnson, Earth & Fire captures the diverse beauty and utility of ceramics, demonstrating that clay doesn’t just get under your fingernails: it gets under your skin.

Finding the path to radiance through deeply felt, sitting meditation• Shares practices to show how sitting meditation can be reconnected to lived, bodily experience and help you rediscover your natural somatic radiance• Explores how the modern thought-focused frame of mind introduces patterns of holding and tension into our bodies• Draws on techniques from the Buddhist, Sufi, and somatic wisdom traditions as well as insights from the author’s own teachers and collaborators, including Ida Rolf and Judith AstonThe modern practice of seated meditation is in serious need of reformation. What began as a living, vibrant, and felt practice—the primary practice of the Buddhist path to spiritual realization—has painted itself into a corner of frozen stillness, divorced from lived, bodily experience.Presenting an accessible and deeply felt guide to sitting meditation as an active exploration, Will Johnson offers a revitalized understanding of this essential spiritual practice through deeper connection with the body. Johnson argues that the thought-focused mode of consciousness of modern rigid seated meditation introduces patterns of holding and tension into our bodies and virtually guarantees that awakening will not occur. He explains how our focus on thought, rather than embodied experience, results in a numbing of our connection to our physical ... Unknown localization key: "more"

In Boswell''s Life of Samuel Johnson, one of the towering figures of English literature is revealed with unparalleled immediacy and originality, in a biography to which we owe much of our knowledge of the man himself. Through a series of richly detailed anecdotes, Johnson emerges as a sociable figure, vigorously engaging and fencing with great contemporaries such as Garrick, Goldsmith, Burney and Burke, and of course with Boswell himself. Yet anxieties and obsessions also darkened Johnson''s private hours, and Boswell''s attentiveness to every facet of Johnson''s character makes this biography as moving as it is entertaining. In this entirely new and unabridged edition, David Womersley''s introduction examines the motives behind Boswell''s work, and the differences between the two men that drew them to each other. It also contains chronologies of Boswell and Johnson, appendices and comprehensive indexes, including biographical details.For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.

Samuel Johnson is a towering figure of eighteenth-century literature. As well as the celebrated Dictionary of the English Language, Johnson was the leading literary critic of his time, and a celebrated author who contributed to almost every genre from poetry to political pamphleteering.

This book offers a concise introduction to Johnson''s many-sided work, and its complex and rich historical contexts. Presenting Johnson in his different guises – Journalist, Poet and Storyteller, Scholar, Critic, Political and Social Thinker, Biographer and Legend – it carefully guides the reader through Johnson''s writings, and provides detailed expert treatments of his major texts.

An intimate collaboration between mother and son, bringing together poems by Cheryl Johnson-Odim and drawings by her son, the acclaimed American artist Rashid Johnson. Poems by Cheryl Johnson-Odim, Rashid Johnson’s mother, are accompanied here by a selection of Johnson’s drawings and a far-ranging conversation between mother and son. The book is based on an updated version of Johnson-Odim’s Other Women Before Me—first published in 1985, the year Rashid turned eight years old. In 2022, Johnson presented the stapled pamphlet—along with titles by the likes of Amiri Baraka, Nikki Giovanni, Claudia Rankine and Sylvia Plath—in a reading area accompanying his exhibition ‘Sodade’ at Hauser & Wirth Menorca, where the artwork featured on the cover of this publication was also on view.

V obľúbenom románe Raymonda Chandlera si pán Bowling kupuje noviny len preto, aby zistil, či sa v nich nepíše o vraždách, ktoré práve spáchal. No uprostred nemeckým letectvom neustále bombardovaného Londýna akoby záhadné úmrtia nikoho nezaujímali a stopy zanechané na mieste činu ostávajú bez povšimnutia. Pán William Bowling je vzdelaný, šarmantný a znudený sériový vrah, ktorý túži po pozornosti. Je pripravený pykať za svoje činy, ale kvôli celosvetovému konfliktu neustále uniká spravodlivosti. Koľko ďalších novín si bude musieť kúpiť, kým ho polícia konečne dolapí? Donald Landels Henderson (1905 - 1947) bol anglický herec, prozaik a autor divadelných aj rozhlasových hier. Počas druhej svetovej vojny pracoval pre BBC a v roku 1943 napísal temný psychologický thriller Pán Bowling si kupuje noviny. Vďaka neodolateľnému spôsobu, akým so zvláštne humorným, no zároveň desivým spôsobom vykreslil portrét sériového vraha, si vo vojnovej Británii vyslúžil mimoriadnu pozornosť čitateľov aj kritikov. Krátko pred svojou predčasnou smrťou spracoval román do podoby divadelnej hry a na základe tejto autorskej adaptácie vznikli o niekoľko rokov dva úspešné televízne filmy

Základní dílo kognitivní lingvistiky způsobilo ve své době revoluci ve filosofii jazyka a přístupu k němu vůbec. Fundamentální premisy, na základě nichž byly jazyk a myšlení v jazyce teoreticky i prakticky zpracovávány a pojímány, byly tímto dílem narušeny a musely být přebudovány. Základní strukturou jazyka už nebylo slovo či propozice, ale metafora, která se dostala do popředí zájmu jazykovědců i filosofů. Metafora sama současně přestala být výsostnou doménou básnického světa a aktualizace jazykových forem a přesunula se v celé šíři do sféry běžné komunikace. Současně se ukázala podstatná role metafory také v nejazykových oborech: v teorii poznání, estetice, kulturní antropologii, sociologii, psychologii ad. Metafora je podle autorů prvotním konceptem organizace světa, myšlení i sebe sama. Autoři vycházejí z nejběžnějších příkladů každodenních situací, v jejichž vnitřní struktuře nacházejí podobnosti s vytyčenými centrálními metaforami a ukazují jejich uspořádání. Na mnoha analytických příkladech dokazují formativní sílu metafory: její vliv v politice, válce, finančnictví, byznysu, kultuře, médiích. Způsob, jimiž svůj výklad podávají, je velmi jednoduchý, čistý, terminologicky nezatížený a přístupný. Toto revidované vydání je rozšířeno o rozsáhlý autorský doslov, v němž Lakoff a Johnson shrnují výsledek působení své knihy od 80. let, kritiku a rozšířené badatelské pole jejich teorie metafor a srovnávají svá východiska ...
