Rozhlasové hry - Petr Novotný, Milan Nápravník

Psaním rozhlasových her se Milan Nápravník začal intenzivně zabývat po roce 1968, poté co emigroval do Západního Německa. Texty pro rozhlas představují v rámci jeho tvorby zcela zapomenutou oblast, a nutno podotknout, že zcela neprávem. Tyto textové kompozice, byť se nikdy nedočkaly žádné výraznější odezvy, rozhodně nepředstavují žádné marginálie, nýbrž hodnotná literární díla, která dobře zapadají do celkového kontextu autorovy tvorby. Je mnoho způsobů, jak Nápravníkovy rozhlasové kompozice vnímat a interpretovat: můžeme je uchopit jako díla jazykově filozofická, můžeme zkoumat jejich vazbu k surrealistickým postupům, lze se soustředit i na jejich jazykovou hudebnost a variační bohatost, v neposlední řadě můžeme tyto texty vnímat i jako intimní zprávu o osamění básníka v exilu. Ať zvolíme jakoukoli perspektivu, dojdeme k závěru, že ve své tvůrčí mimoběžnosti byl Nápravník dokonale nekompromisní a důsledný - a s odstupem řady desetiletí se jeho texty jeví jako nadčasová a zneklidňující díla.

Eseje a kritiky - Milan Nápravník

Svazek Eseje a kritiky přináší výbor z autorových textů vytvořených v období let 1971-2016. Milan Nápravník (1931-2017) byl český surrealistický básník, esejista, dramaturg, autor rozhlasových her, malíř, fotograf a sochař. V roce 1968 odchází do emigrace, kde po přechodném pobytu v Západním Berlíně a Paříži působí jako rozhlasový redaktor v německém Kolíně nad Rýnem. Autor několika knižních titulů - básnických sbírek, próz a souborů esejistických textů. Se svými asamblážemi, malbami, skulpturami a fotografiemi se zúčastňuje řady výstav ve Francii, Velké Británii a Spolkové republice Německo. V roce 1996 vystavuje také v Praze ve výstavní síni Mladé Fronty a po jeho smrti uspořádá retrospektivní výstavu Nápravníkova výtvarného díla pražská Galerie Maldoror (2018). Jako člen Sociálnědemokratické strany Německa (SPD) se hlavně v sedmdesátých a osmdesátých létech podílí aktivním způsobem na tamním politickém dění.

Avantgarda a iluze - Milan Nápravník

Kniha Milana Nápravníka Avantgarda a iluze přináší výbor z autorových studií, esejů či jiných textů, které pojednávají o historii levicové kulturní avantgardy a v širším smyslu o problematice vztahu surrealismu a novodobých politických ideologií. Zevrubnost analýz a polemická povaha autorova pohledu staví tento svazek do sousedství tak důsažných svědectví, jaká svého času podali např. Milovan Đilas či u nás Karel Teige nebo Záviš Kalandra. Milan Nápravník (1931-2017) byl český surrealistický básník, esejista, dramaturg, autor rozhlasových her, malíř, fotograf a sochař.

Prokletá slast a jiné eseje - Milan Nápravník

Monografie zpřístupňuje výbor deseti textů Milana Nápravníka z let 1978 až 2016. Čtenář si tak udělá představu o zaměření esejisticko-kritického díla surrealistického autora, které je českému publiku v úplnosti dosud neznámé. Název knihy postihuje jednu z otázek, které Nápravník učinil předmětem svého zkoumání: Nebyl pud k moci původně pudem ke slasti? Nedošlo k metamorfóze erotické touhy v touhu po ovládání, jež se v rámci soudobé civilizace uskutečňuje prostřednictvím vztahu podřízenosti a nadřízenosti? Autor se ve svých pracích opakovaně vrací k pojmu ideologie a vlivu náboženských nebo politických ideologií na životy velkých lidských kolektivů. Na rozdíl od soudobých tendencí, jež význam faktoru ideologie spíše přehlížejí, chce identifikovat její historické, ale i mytologické podloží. Součástí výboru je rovněž kalendárium autorova života a fotografická příloha. K vydání editorsky připravil Ladislav Fanta.

Inspirace - Milan Kundera, Eduard Goldstücker, Karel Kosík, Antonín J. Liehm, Robert Kalivoda

Soubor statí publikovaných v Literárních novinách mezi lety 1967-69. Mezi autory se objevují nejvýznamnější čeští myslitelé druhé poloviny dvacátého století (Milan Kundera, Karel Kosík, Robert Kalivoda a další). Od konce padesátých let se český kulturní týdeník zvaný Literární noviny nesměle pokoušel znovu začlenit českou kulturu do evropského kontextu a naopak. Začalo se to dařit až začátkem šedesátých let a na jejich konci se to v podstatě podařilo. LN se staly jedním z nejlepších evropských časopisů svého druhu a psalo se o tom všude vůkol, ač nebylo mnoho těch, kteří je dokázali přečíst. Ale i to se překonalo a jejich proslulost se trvale zvyšovala. Až to všechno skončilo pod pásy sovětských tanků. Na podzim 1990 požádal A. J. Liehm Milana Kunderu o příspěvek pro česko-slovenskou Lettre. Kundera tento fejeton nazval O slavnosti a hostech: Milý Tondo, když jsi mi řekl o příspěvek pro první české číslo Lettre internationale, myslel jsem, že nic nemám. Navrhoval jsi mi (jako už tolikrát), abych přeložil do češtiny něco z toho, co jsem v cizině napsal o českých věcech. Ano, napovídal jsem mnoho interview, napsal mnoho textů týkajících se okupovaného Československa, české hudby, české literatury, mých kolegů, byla by z toho dost tlustá kniha, ale nestála ...

As self-employed artists, we have become used to performing our services anywhere, for anybody who books us. One day we might be doing a happy crafty afternoon in a primary school, the next day a post-graduate seminar on exhibition-making, the day after we’re making soup for the reading group we organised.

Postupně se seznamuje s jeho přáteli o dílem Milana Kundery, aby nakonec autora pochopil do hloubky... Proč dílo Milana Kundery tak zaujalo po celém světě? Proč odešel do Francie a začal psát ve francouzštině? Co je za tím, že bránil překladům svých posledních románů do češtiny? Nebo že se vyhýbá kamerám a publicitě? Dokument o Kunderově díle nás zavede do rodného Brna, do dob, kdy studoval a učil na FAMU, nebo do normalizace, kdy mu bylo bráněno v tvorbě a nebyl vydáván, přestože už získával úspěchy v zahraničí.

When Species Meet - Donna J. Haraway

“When Species Meet is a breathtaking meditation on the intersection between humankind and dog, philosophy and science, and macro and micro cultures.” —Cameron Woo, Publisher of Bark magazine In 2006, about 69 million U.S. households had pets, giving homes to around 73.9 million dogs, 90.5 million cats, and 16.6 million birds, and spending over $38 billion dollars on companion animals. As never before in history, our pets are truly members of the family. But the notion of “companion species”—knotted from human beings, animals and other organisms, landscapes, and technologies—includes much more than “companion animals.” In When Species Meet, Donna J. Haraway digs into this larger phenomenon to contemplate the interactions of humans with many kinds of critters, especially with those called domestic. At the heart of the book are her experiences in agility training with her dogs Cayenne and Roland, but Haraway’s vision here also encompasses wolves, chickens, cats, baboons, sheep, microorganisms, and whales wearing video cameras. From designer pets to lab animals to trained therapy dogs, she deftly explores philosophical, cultural, and biological aspects of animal-human encounters.  In this deeply personal yet intellectually groundbreaking work, Haraway develops the idea of companion species, those who meet and break bread ...

The Beaker People

The Beaker People: isotopes, mobility and diet in prehistoric Britain presents the results of a major project that sought to address a century-old question about the people who were buried with Beakers a – the distinctive pottery of Continental origin that was current, predominantly in equally distinctive burials, in Britain from around 2450 BC. Who were these people? Were they immigrants and how far did they move around? What did they eat? What was their lifestyle? How do they compare with Britain’s earlier inhabitants and with contemporaries who did not use Beaker pottery? An international team of leading archaeologists and scientists, led by Professor Mike Parker Pearson, was assembled to address these questions. Around 300 skeletons were subjected to isotope analysis to explore patterns of mobility and diet, and 150 new radiocarbon dates were obtained. Dental microwear was examined for 64 individuals to provide further information about the food they had eaten, and new information on the sex and age of 201 people obtained. A comparative study was undertaken of the shape and size of Beaker users’ skulls and those of Neolithic people in the Peak District of England, to examine the long-held claim that there was a switch from ...

Democracy for Busy People - Kevin J. Elliott

Advances an alternative approach to democratic reform that focuses on building institutions that empower people who have little time for politics. Â How do we make democracy more equal? Although in theory, all citizens in a democracy have the right to participate in politics, time-consuming forms of participation often advantage some groups over others. Where some citizens may have time to wait in long lines to vote, to volunteer for a campaign, to attend community board meetings, or to stay up to date on national, state, and local news, other citizens struggle to do the same. Since not all people have the time or inclination to devote substantial energy to politics, certain forms of participation exacerbate existing inequalities. Â Democracy for Busy People takes up the very real challenge of how to build a democracy that empowers people with limited time for politics. While many plans for democratic renewal emphasize demanding forms of political participation and daunting ideals of democratic citizenship, political theorist Kevin J. Elliott proposes a fundamentally different approach. He focuses instead on making democratic citizenship undemanding so that even busy people can be politically included. This approach emphasizes the core institutions of electoral democracy, such as political ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The Lone Ranger and Tonto Meet Buddha - Coyote Peter

Reveals how to use masks, meditation, and improvisation to free yourself from overthinking, self-doubt, and fixed ideas of who you think you are Sharing a series of mindfulness techniques and acting exercises that show how malleable the self can be, award-winning actor, narrator, and Zen Buddhist priest Peter Coyote reveals how to use masks, meditation, and improvisation to free yourself from fixed ideas of who you think you are and help you release your ego from constant defensive strategizing, calm the mind’s overactivity, and allow spontaneous playfulness to arise out of your deepest nature. Developed through 40 years of research and personal study, Coyote’s synthesis of mask-based improv games and Zen practices is specifically designed to create an ego-suppressed state akin to the mystical experiences of meditation or the spiritual awakenings of psychedelics. After preparatory exercises, seeing yourself in a mask will temporarily displace your familiar self and the spirit of the mask will take over. Likening the liberated state induced by mask work to “Enlightenment-lite,” Coyote draws on Buddhist philosophy to describe how and why the exercises work as well as how to make your newly awakened and confident self part of daily life.
