Constitution of the United States of America - kolektiv autorů

In 1787. . . We were given the right to practice the religion of our choice. We were given the right to say what we wanted without persecution. It was written that our house and property were secure from unreasonable search and seizure. We were given the right to a public trial. Fifty-five men we will never know sat in a sweltering room and fought for us. We were given our rights as citizens of the United States. Every second fall, as we return again to the ballot box to decide the course of our country's leadership, every voter must find their way back to that room in Philadelphia. Welcome Books is proud to provide a map.

The Later Diaries Of Ned Rorem - Ned Rorem

Ned Rorem is celebrated as one of America''s greatest living composers. His diary of his early years, The Paris Diary and the New York Diary, was widely acclaimed. The Later Diaries continues one of the most sustained efforts in the intimate journal form ever undertaken and offers candid insights into his astonishing life, career, art, friendships, and love. In these years, Lions, Miss Julie, and Poems of Love and the Rain were composed and most of his books written; he also continued to meet the famous and infamous and to write of them with the charm that Janet Flanner characterized as "worldly, intelligent, licentious, highly indiscreet."

So Bright and Delicate: Love Letters and Poems of John Keats to Fanny Brawne - John Keats, Jane Campion

So Bright and Delicate: Love Letters and Poems of John Keats to Fanny Brawne is a testament to the love that inspired the passion and creativity of one of the greatest English Romantic poets. This Penguin Classics edition includes an introduction by Jane Campion, Oscar-winning director of the film Bright Star.John Keats died aged just twenty-five, leaving behind some of the most exquisite and moving verse and love letters ever written, inspired by his great love for his neighbour, Fanny Brawne. Although they knew each other for just a few short years and spent a great deal of that time apart - separated by Keats''s worsening illness, which forced a move abroad - Keats wrote again and again about and to his love, right until his very last poem, called simply ''To Fanny''. She, in turn, would wear the ring he had given her until her death. So Bright and Delicate contains the love poems and correspondence composed by Keats in the heat of his passion, and is a dazzling display of a talent cruelly cut short.John Keats (1795-1821) lost both his parents at an early age.

Stung with Love: Poems and Fragments of Sappho - Sappho

More or less 150 years after Homer''s Iliad, Sappho lived on the island of Lesbos, west off the coast of what is present Turkey. Little remains today of her writings, which are said to have filled nine papyrus rolls in the great library at Alexandria some 500 years after her death. The surviving texts consist of a lamentably small and fragmented body of lyric poetry - among them poems of invocation, desire, spite, celebration, resignation and remembrance - that nevertheless enables us to hear the living voice of the poet Plato called the tenth Muse. This is a new translation of her surviving poetry.

New Collected Poems of Marianne Moore - Marianne Moore

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 ...

New Selected Poems of W. S. Graham - W.S. Graham

One hundred years after his birth, W. S. Graham''s words seem more awake than ever. His subtle exploration of the paradoxes of language, his passionate conviction of the importance of art and the love he expresses for the people and landscapes of his native Clydeside and adopted home of Cornwall attract more readers each year. In startlingly original poems, he celebrates family and friendship and probes the limits of our understanding of the world and our place in it. Graham''s New Collected Poems (2004) marked a crucial point in the growth of his reputation, bringing together for the first time all the poems of his seven collections as well as some of the unpublished material that had come to light since his death in 1986. Now, as we honour his centenary, this New Selected Poems presents his best and most characteristic: from his epic seafaring masterpiece ''The Nightfishing'' to the quirky metaphysics of ''Implements in their Places'', as well as a selection of his early neo-romantic poems, which Graham himself believed were essential to a full understanding of his oeuvre, and some remarkable uncollected work.

Selected Poems of Emily Dickinson - Emily Dickinsonová

Although Emily Dickinson wrote nearly 2,000 poems, only a handful were ever published in her lifetime, and those anonymously. Today, she is recognized as one of the most important American poets of the nineteenth century, one whose unconventional use of language and rhyme anticipated the break with tradition of much modern poetry written after it. The Selected Poems of Emily Dickinson collects more than 150 of Dickinson's brief but memorable poems. Bursting with insights about life, love, nature, death, and immortality, these poems are among the best loved and most reprinted in English literature. The Selected Poems of Emily Dickinson is one of Barnes & Noble's Collectible Editions classics. Each volume features authoritative texts by the world's greatest authors in an elegantly designed bonded-leather binding, with distinctive gilt edging.

Darkness Spoken: The Collected Poems of Ingeborg Bachmann - Ingeborg Bachmannová

Darkness Spoken is the most complete volume of Ingeborg Bachmann’s poetry in English and German. Considered one of the premiere poets of her generation, Bachmann’s various awards include the Georg Büchner Prize, the Berlin Critics Prize, the Bremen Award, and the Austrian State Prize for literature. Darkness Spoken collects her two celebrated books of poetry, as well as the early and late poems not collected in book form. First published by Zephyr Press in 2006, the volume also contains 129 poems released from Bachmann’s archives that had never been translated before. Twenty-five of them also appeared in German for the first time. Continued research by Peter Fikins on Bachmann’s writing since 2006 as well as his current work on Bachmann’s biography (forthcoming in 2026 from Yale University Press), has drawn him even closer to Bachmann’s poems and deepened his understanding of their context and meaning. For this second revised edition, roughly a quarter of the poems have benefitted from revisions in word choice for the purposes of greater clarity, better syntax or rhythm, or in a few instances, corrections in punctuation and of interpretive errors.

Jsou zde zastoupeni kněží ve světské pastoraci (Jan Pauly), biskupové (Jan Valerián Jirsík), řeholníci (Andreas Hamerle), teologové (Eduard Winter), politici (Bohumil Stašek) i básníci (Jakub Deml). Autory zajímá jak identita osobní (otázka sebepojetí kněze a jeho re? exe okolím), tak identita sociální (sounáležitost s farností, klérem či národem). Právě moderní doba v důsledku zrychlujících se změn společnosti generovala větší možnosti individuální volby.

Ekologie a zdraví včel - Karel Sládek, kolektiv autorů, Květoslav Čermák

Aktuálně není ve včelařství naléhavějšího tématu, než je zdraví včel. Téma výsostně praktické a bytostně důležité. Hromadné kolapsy včelstev posledních let jsou toho více než reálným důkazem. Včely a jejich zdraví jsou již od počátku neodmyslitelně provázány s krajinou. Na otázky, jaký je jejich nynější stav, odpovídá velice fundovaně společná monografie odborníků z Mendelovy společnosti pro včelařský výzkum a přizvaných zahraničních autorů. Kniha volně navazuje na publikaci z roku 2016 s názvem Ekologie chovu včel. Autorský kolektiv a uchopená témata jsou zárukou odborně kvalitní a čtivé publikace, která nezůstává jen u pouhé deskripce, ale nabízí i možnosti řešení, klade další otázky a připomíná témata, která je nutno prozkoumat. Tento přístup ocení nejen čtenáři, ale bude přínosná i pro cíl a objekt našeho společného zájmu, a tím jsou zdravé včely.

Gastroenterologie a hepatologie v algoritmech - kolektiv autorů, Trunečka Pavel, Pavel Martínek

Gastroenterologie a hepatologie jsou obory charakterizované dynamickým rozvojem diagnostiky i dříve nepředstavitelným spektrem nových léků a dalších způsobů terapie. Rostoucí komplexnost oboru si však žádá přehlednou publikaci, v níž se může lékař rychle orientovat. Autorský kolektiv vedený předními českými experty prof. MUDr. Janem Martínkem, Ph.D., AGAF, a MUDr. Pavlem Trunečkou, CSc., (IKEM) proto připravil k vydání knihu Gastroenterologie a hepatologie v algoritmech, která je svou strukturou poměrně ojedinělá. Nabízí spektrum více než 90 diagnóz, se kterými se lékaři mohou běžně setkat v nemocniční i ambulantní praxi. Cílem autorů je představit stručný a přehledný popis nejdůležitějších onemocnění z obou oborů a především lékaře detailně provést aktuálním terapeutickým algoritmem sestaveným na základě mezinárodních doporučení. Každá klinická jednotka proto obsahuje základní popis a aktuální léčebný postup zpracovaný formou přehledného diagramu, který si najde svoje místo v každodenní praxi, ale i v rámci přípravy k atestačním zkouškám.

Karcinom jícnu - kolektiv autorů, Vrba Radek

Karcinom jícnu patří k nejzávažnějším malignitám současnosti, jde o onemocnění léčitelné, avšak jen zřídka plně vyléčitelné. Péče o nemocné s karcinomem jícnu vyžaduje mezioborovou spolupráci gastroenterologů, onkologů, chirurgů a dalších odborností. Kolektiv autorů, v jehož čele stojí doc. MUDr. Radek Vrba, Ph.D., připravil knižní publikaci věnovanou problematice jícnových malignit v celé šíři – od anatomie, epidemiologie a diagnostických metod až k léčebným postupům, a to jak konzervativních, tak operačních. Samozřejmou součástí jsou kapitoly týkající se přípravy nemocných k těmto rozsáhlým operačním výkonům a zásadám vedení anestezie, ale také pooperační péče či paliativní problematiky.

Zákon o preventivní restrukturalizaci Praktický komentář - Adam Sigmund, kolektiv autorů

Vychází první komentář ke zcela novému zákonu o preventivní restrukturalizaci, jenž nabyl účinnosti 23. 9. 2023 a byl do našeho právního řádu zařazen povinnou transpozicí evropské směrnice o restrukturalizaci a insolvenci. Preventivní restrukturalizace je zcela novým právním nástrojem, jehož smyslem je: pomoci obchodním korporacím ve finančních obtížích, aby mohly pokračovat v podnikání (změnou struktury jejich majetku, závazků, kapitálu či provedením provozních změn); přinést řešení, které chrání manažery a vlastníky podniků před žalobami na osobní majetek; umožnit uspořádání vztahů s obchodními partnery. Autorský kolektiv praktického komentáře je složen z advokátů, insolvenčních správců a ekonomických poradců aktivně praktikujících na poli insolvencí. Snahou autorů díky jejich zaměření je nalézt a podat praktický pohled na fungování preventivních restrukturalizací, tedy na možnou budoucí praxi preventivních restrukturalizací, která se teprve bude formovat, stejně jako judikatura.

Mezi náboženstvím a politikou - Johann P. Arnason, Milan Hanyš, kolektiv autorů

Kolektiv autorů sestávající ze sociologů, filosofů, historiků a politologů v knize zkoumá vztahy mezi náboženstvím a politikou z rozmanitých teoretických, metodologických a disciplinárních hledisek. V teoreticky zaměřených kapitolách pojednávají J. Sokol, J. P. Arnason a J. Homolka o složitých souvislostech vztahů mezi náboženstvím a modernitou a pokaždé z jiného zorného úhlu téma začleňují do širších perspektiv antropologických, filosofických a historicko-sociologických. M. Šimsa, P. Barša a M. Hanyš se dotýkají aktuálních diskuzí o nábožensko-politických vztazích a pojednávají o problematice islámu a demokracie, roli náboženství v liberálně-demokratickém diskursu a vztahu mezi monoteismem a násilím. Kapitoly psané P. Kratochvílem, T. Doležalem, Z. R. Nešporem, K. Černým a M. Jaluškou analyzují vybrané historické i současné případy nábožensko-politických konfigurací (EU, česká společnost, arabské jaro, středověká Galicie) a na konkrétním materiálu ukazují jejich rozmanitost a dynamičnost.

The Selected Poems of Emily Dickinson - Emily Dickinsonová

Explore the essence of life, love, nature, and time in exquisite verse with this elegantly designed edition of Emily Dickinson’s finest poems. Born in 1830 in Amherst, Massachusetts, to a prominent New England family and educated at Amherst Academy and Mt. Holyoke Female Seminary, Emily Elizabeth Dickinson lived most of her life in seclusion, devoted to writing. She scarcely left home, nor did she have many visitors. Only ten of her poems were published in her lifetime, submitted without her permission by friends. It was only after her death in 1886 that the scope of her work as a poet came to light—over 1,700 poems were discovered in a dresser drawer by her sister, Lavinia. Emily Dickinson’s poems reflect her loneliness, as well as her love of nature, the influence of the Metaphysical poets of seventeenth century England, and her strong Puritan religious beliefs. Yet, it is her use of language, form, and the deceptive simplicity of her verse that categorize her as an important force in nineteenth century American letters and, along with Walt Whitman, a founder of a distinctly American voice in modern poetry.
