Světová kinematografie pamatuje celou řádku režijních bohů, kteří ji pozvedli do nových dimenzí. Mezi těmito revolučními bohy je však Cameron Diem.

Camerone - Michal Odstrčil

Píše se rok 1863 a v Mexiku pokračuje válka s Francií. Koncem dubna vyráží z Vera Cruzu do Puebla francouzský konvoj, složený z 64 vozů a několika desítek mul, který veze pro obléhající francouzské vojáky zásoby munice, potravin, ošacení, léků, ale především tři milióny franků ve zlatě k vyplacení žoldu. Mexický plukovník Milan se od svých zvědů o tomto konvoji dozvídá a rozhodne se ho zmocnit. K dispozici má přes dva tisíce mužů, nejprve však musí zlikvidovat malou doprovodnou skupinku kapitána Danjoua, která je vyslaná k obraně tohoto tolik cenného konvoje a která se skládá jen ze 65 mužů cizinecké legie, naprosto zdecimovaných od tropických horeček, úplavice a žluté zimnice.Jejich zbraně se zkříží 30. dubna 1863, kdy se opuštěný statek v Camerone stává scénou epického boje. Legionáři zde zůstávají obklíčeni a izolováni jako v pasti na myši. Milan si myslí, že k porážce Francouzů mu stačí jen 15 minut, ale legionáři byli veterány z těch nejhorších evropských bojišť a měli tak obrovské zkušenosti, disciplínu a výcvik, zatímco jeho muži ještě před nedávnem orali svá pole a do boje proti francouzským vetřelcům šli většinou jen s mačetami v rukou. Kapitán Danjou dostává možnost se vzdát se ctí, ale raději posílá své muže do nerovného boje proti třicetinásobné přesile s jasným cílem - ochránit francouzský konvoj. Bitva u Camerone je historiky označována za nejstatečnější bitvu všech dob: muži kapitána Danjoua vytvářejí legendu a všemi opovrhovaná cizinecká legie je náhle považována za elitní jednotku.

Cameron Welch: Mosaics

Mixing the contemporary with the ancient, MOSAICS spotlights ground-breaking emerging artist Cameron Welch.The inaugural monograph of multidisciplinary artist Cameron Welch presents a vivid, comprehensive look into a young artist’s practice. Welch’s work has straddled sculpture, collage, and textiles, but in early 2017, he shifted to mosaic as his primary medium. As a child, the artist was introduced to mosaic by his grandmother, an experience that has a lasting impact on the way he works the age-old medium to piece together disparate materials and histories. Welch treats mosaic as a physical manifestation of intertextuality, referring to the colliding contexts he unearths in the work as a kind of infiltration. While Welch’s chosen medium evokes ancient traditions, the effect of his work is decidedly contemporary. His chaotic, jumbled compositions speak to the same anxiety felt in the Information Age, an era when unlimited information is available at the tap of a screen. Amidst the pictorial chaos of Welch’s mosaics, the figures who emerge range from familiar to foreign, comical to heroic. Frequently depicting himself and figures from his own life, Welch sheds light on unsung histories within the intricate topology of his creations. An incisive essay by Greek and Roman Art scholar Alexis Belis helps readers contextualize Welch’s work within historical and contemporary creative practice.

Positively Energizing Leadership - Kim Cameron

This practical guide, the first to show how leaders can achieve extraordinary results through the positive energy generated by virtuous interactions with employees, is written by one of the giants in the study of positive leadership.This book reveals one of the most important but frequently ignored factors that lead to spectacular performance in organizations. Kim Cameron, a true pioneer in the study of positive leadership, offers validated scientific evidence that all individuals are inherently attracted to and flourish in the presence of positive energy, a principle known in biology as heliotropism. Further, he shows that the positive relational energy generated by leaders’ virtuous behaviors—such as generosity, compassion, gratitude, trustworthiness, forgiveness, and kindness—is tightly linked to extraordinary organizational outcomes like greater innovation, higher profits, and increased engagement and retention. Cameron has not written a feel-good tome about the power of positive thinking, “happiology,” or unbridled optimism. This research-based explanation shows how to achieve performance that exceeds expectations. He provides practical suggestions, assessments, and exercises showing how leaders can improve their own positive energy and increase positive relational energy in their organizations. Positively Energizing Leadership is a major contribution to the theory and practice of leadership.

Julia Margaret Cameron - Virginia Woolfová, Julia Margaret Cameron, Roger Fry

At the age of 48, when she moved to the Isle of Wight, Julia Margaret Cameron (1815-1879) was given a camera by her daughter: It might amuse you, Mother, to try to photograph during your solitude at Freshwater. The gift was to begin Cameronâ ™s short but prolific career as one of photographyâ ™s first great artists. From the first moment I handled my lens with a tender ardour, and it has become to me as a living thing, with voice and memory and creative vigour. The modern interest in Cameronâ ™s photography began with the pioneering 1926 book by her great-niece Virginia Woolf and art critic Roger Fry. Their essays and the original plates are reprinted here, together with Cameronâ ™s own account of her life in photography, Annals of My Glass House, her only surviving poem, On a Portrait, and an introduction by Tristram Powell. Thirty-nine plates and other illustrations have been added, including many of Cameronâ ™s most famous images.

Breaking Hel - Cameron Miles

Before iron helmets and steel swords, when dragons roamed the world, was an age of bronze and stone, when the Gods walked the earth, and people lived in terror. In this era a scribe, a warlord, a dancer, a mute insect and a child should have no chance against the might of the bickering gods and their cruel games. But the gods themselves are old, addicted to their own games of power, and now their fates may lie in the hands of mere mortals . . . The third in this original, visceral epic series weaving together the mythologies of a dozen pantheons of gods and heroes to create something new and magical, this tale of the revolt against the tyranny which began in Against All Gods is a must-read from a master of the fantasy genre. Praise for Miles Cameron: #39;Utterly, utterly brilliant. A masterclass in how to write modern fantasy - world building, characters, plot and pacing, all perfectly blended. Miles Cameron is at the top of his game #39; John Gwynne, author of The Faithful and the Fallen series #39;Cold Iron is fantastic. It shimmers like a well-honed sword blade #39; Anna Smith Spark, author of The Court of Broken Knives #39;Promising historical fantasy debut featuring an expansive cast, an engaging plot, and a detailed eye for combat #39; The Ranting Dragon on The Red Knight #39;Literate, intelligent, and well-throughout . . . a pleasingly complex and greatly satisfying novel #39; SFF World on The Red Knight

The Green Hill - Sophie Pierce

In 2017, Sophie Pierceâ ™s life changed forever when her twenty-year-old son Felix died suddenly and unexpectedly. Thrown into an unimaginable new reality, she had to find a way to survive. By writing letters to Felix â “ composed during walks and swims taken close to his burial place by the River Dart â “ Sophie gradually learned how to live in the landscape of sudden loss, navigating the weather and tides of grief. The Green Hill collects these letters alongside Sophieâ ™s account of the years following Felixâ ™s death, into which she weaves poignant memories of his life. What results is a deeply moving, beautifully captured record of how â “ amid the rivers and rocks of Dartmoor, and in the sea off the South Devon coast â “ Sophie was able to hold on to and nurture her bond with Felix, both in her mind and through a physical engagement with the landscape: actively mourning, rather than grieving. This book is a celebration of the natural world and the role it plays in our lives and relationships, as well as an examination of how beauty, a sense of place and the passing seasons can help us contend with our own mortality. Above all, The Green Hill is one womanâ ™s story of navigating through trauma and loss, and towards a fragile, complicated kind of joy. In The Green Hill, Sophie Pierce writes about the sudden death of her son Felix with an aching and gentle honesty. Struggling to come to terms with the loss not only of the young man he was, but everything that he would eventually become, she finds herself overwhelmed not only by grief, but also by love. Her writing is illuminated by a remarkable attention to the beauty and consolation of the natural world, and by the wisdom and tenderness which has been so painfully acquired. This is a book that will be a great comfort to those who need it Sarah Perry, author of The Essex Serpent and Melmoth Unforgettable, necessary. This beautiful book is a map, compass and ration of courage for anyone arrived in the landscape of sudden loss. Full of love and learning Tanya Shadrick The Green Hill is an extraordinary bookâ ¦ I thought of the fairy tale in which a captured princess must weave clothes from stinging nettles: Sophie Pierce has wrought something beautiful and useful from the darkest pain Cressida Connolly, novelist and critic

Nothing Stopped Sophie - Cheryl Bardoe

The true story of eighteenth-century mathematician Sophie Germain, who solved the unsolvable to achieve her dream. When her parents took away her candles to keep their young daughter from studying math...nothing stopped Sophie. When a professor discovered that the homework sent to him under a male pen name came from a woman...nothing stopped Sophie. And when she tackled a math problem that male scholars said would be impossible to solve...still, nothing stopped Sophie. For six years, Sophie Germain used her love of math and her undeniable determination to test equations that would predict patterns of vibrations. She eventually became the first woman to win a grand prize from France #39;s prestigious Academy of Sciences for her formula, which laid the groundwork for much of modern architecture (and can be seen in the book #39;s illustrations). Award-winning author Cheryl Bardoe #39;s inspiring and poetic text is brought to life by acclaimed artist Barbara McClintock #39;s intricate pen-and-ink, watercolor, and collage illustrations in this true story about a woman who let nothing stop her.

The Flying Child - A Cautionary Fairytale for Adults - Patricia Walsh, Sophie Olson

⠘And then came the session where I felt I would give up. I felt frustrated as I⠙d worked so hard on trying to speak but the most important words; the worst ones, had simply not come out. I implied I would not necessarily come back the following week and as I got up to leave the room, Pat said, ⠘Try detaching from it entirely. Try writing it as a fairy story. Start with the words, once upon a time there was a little girl⠙.  That evening, I tried. I sat on my bed and typed on the note⠙s app of my phone Once Upon A Time ⠦ and finally, four decades after the abuse began, the words started to flow.⠙ This book documents the therapeutic journey undertaken by Sophie and her therapist, Pat. It includes all chapters of the fairy tale and the drawings Sophie created to help her make sense of her experiences and to reconnect with herself. It also contains the many in-between session conversations Pat and Sophie had by email, WhatsApp, and texts, with important insights into how to work safely with trauma.  Essential reading for all therapists, counsellors, health professionals, educators, and social workers, interested in understanding or working with survivors of child sexual abuse, and for those who are survivors of sexual abuse, The Flying Child ⠓ A Cautionary Fairy Tale for Adults- Finding a purposeful life after Child Sexual Abuse through compassionate and creative therapy ⠓ is a must- have for your bookshelf.  Today, Sophie is a survivor activist, writer, founder and managing director of The Flying Child: a non-profit, National Lottery Community Funded organisation improving the awareness of child sexual abuse and the consequences of trauma. The core aim of The Flying Child is to normalise speaking about CSA. The Flying Child Project brings lived experience into the heart of professional settings, providing training in Education, Social Work and Healthcare.  Pat Walsh is an experiential and intuitive counsellor with over forty years⠙ experience of working in trauma. Her background in nursing and occupational therapy taught her that to heal properly, wounds must be deeply cleansed, and purpose and meaning must be established to build any long -lasting recovery. She brings these learnings into her therapeutic work with survivors of sexual violence and childhood sexual abuse.
