„Book „The Vedute of Prague“ describes the development of Prague cityscape in the period of last 5 centuries and emphasizes future possible scenarios how the city composition could be continuously developed in the 21st century,“ comments the content of the book Roman Koucký, the co-author of the book and the chief of the Metropolitan plan office, that prepares new urban plan of Prague, called Metropolitan plan.The overall visual composition of the city forms a significant part of its identity and the collective mental “city image”. The layered and diverse composition of the city “from medieval times up to now” is, as emphasized in the book’s first chapter, the reason for Prague’s inscription in the prestigious UNESCO Register of World Cultural Heritage. The second chapter describes how it is not only possible but indeed necessary to read the contemporary city/metropolis, and what to emphasis in supplementing its composition. The third chapter is a brief history of the formulation of Prague’s historic urban landscape, particularly in the turbulent 20th century, and an outline of a possible solution for its further development based on the Metropolitan Plan. It describes how it is possible to supplement the historically layered city with a contemporary cultural layer precisely as assumed in the wording of the UNESCO inscription from 1992. The attempt of the book is to place today’s views of the city into a historical context. For this reason, in the first excursus, the book provides a selection of historic Prague vedute from the collection of the City of Prague Museum. In the second excursus, the book presents selection from the archival collections of IPR Praha with views of the design of the city from the 20th century.The main part of the book represents in the 3rd excursus series of new Prague vedute: the panoramic photographs taken from 2014 to 2017 as the artistic vision of Ester Havlová, capturing of a crucial historical moment in the search for a vision of the future of Prague. The final, fourth excursus is a description of the entirely new depiction of the proposed future composition of the city, the ‘digital veduta’ using orthogonal imaging, used aswell in the Metropolitan plan of Prague proposal. The present book is published to mark the 25th anniversary of the inscription of the historic centre of Prague to the UNESCO Register of World Cultural and Natural Heritage. The book also commemorates the 5th anniversary of the founding of the Office of the Metropolitan Plan. For the text and illustrations, the materials used are results of research by the Office of the Metropolitan Plan, published in full in the volume Metropolitní plán, koncept odůvodnění 2014, supplemented by an extensive new research including methodological principles of defining the height composition of the city.

WINNER OF THE THURBER PRIZEThe compelling, inspiring, (often comic) coming-of-age story of Trevor Noah, set during the twilight of apartheid and the tumultuous days of freedom that followed.One of the comedy world s brightest new voices, Trevor Noah is a light-footed but sharp-minded observer of the absurdities of politics, race and identity, sharing jokes and insights drawn from the wealth of experience acquired in his relatively young life. As host of the US hit show The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, he provides viewers around the globe with their nightly dose of biting satire, but here Noah turns his focus inward, giving readers a deeply personal, heartfelt and humorous look at the world that shaped him. Noah was born a crime, son of a white Swiss father and a black Xhosa mother, at a time when such a union was punishable by five years in prison. Living proof of his parents indiscretion, Trevor was kept mostly indoors for the first years of his life, bound by the extreme and often absurd measures his mother took to hide him from a government that could, at any moment, take him away.A collection of eighteen personal stories, Born a Crime tells the story of a mischievous young boy growing into a restless young man as he struggles to find his place in a world where he was never supposed to exist. Born a Crime is equally the story of that young man s fearless, rebellious and fervently religious mother - a woman determined to save her son from the cycle of poverty, violence and abuse that ultimately threatens her own life.Whether subsisting on caterpillars for dinner during hard times, being thrown from a moving car during an attempted kidnapping, or just trying to survive the life-and-death pitfalls of dating in high school, Noah illuminates his curious world with an incisive wit and an unflinching honesty. His stories weave together to form a personal portrait of an unlikely childhood in a dangerous time, as moving and unforgettable as the very best memoirs and as funny as Noah s own hilarious stand-up. Born a Crime is a must read.

As Prague settles into the European Union club, its rebirth as a vibrant Western-style city continues to blossom, with the traces of East bloc communism increasingly hard to uncover. But the City of 100 Spires is also returning to its roots as a decadent, jubilant place that made the word bohemia into a common noun. The smoky jazz clubs, rowdy, cruisy bars and stunning symphony halls have been restored to the spirit and role they once served. And it s fast making up for lost time with local designers and artists creating confrontational work at dozens of galleries while the frisson of the Cold War remains in Soviet-era meat shops and chilling monuments. *Sightseeing in Prague *Prague hotels *Prague restaurants *Prague bars *Prague shops *Prague maps

Prague in the early twentieth century was the city of cubists, surrealists, and the Good Soldier vejk. This book takes a new approach to interwar Prague by identifying religion as an integral part of the city s cultural history. As Prague emerged as a modern city and the Czech nation gained independence, Catholics, Protestants, and those who imagined a non-sectarian religion debated questions of faith and morality. Contrary to the conventional view of modern Czech elites as atheistic, Berglund shows how they were deeply concerned with the place of religion in modern life. Based upon a wide array of sources, the monograph explores the linkages between politics, theology, and architecture in the building of new symbols and a civil religion for the first Czechoslovak republic (1918-1938). Berglund views the contest of the sacred and secular in Prague within the broader context of religious change in twentieth-century Europe. His book lays a foundation for understanding both Czech culture of the interwar period as well as the nation s and Europe s religious history in the modern age. The author takes an approach that is both interdisciplinary and biographical by focusing on important figures in the politics and culture of interwar Prague, including Tomá Masaryk, the philosopher who became Czechoslovakia s first president; his daughter Alice, founding director of the Czechoslovak Red Cross; and Joze Plecnik, the Slovenian architect who directed the renovations of Prague Castle and designed one of the city s most renowned churches. This study of the beliefs and doubts held by these and other figures shows the transition from a (mostly) Catholic tradition to a new religious conception that was modern, humanistic, and detached from any institution much like the religious beliefs held by many Europeans today.

NEJPROSLULEJŠÍ PRAŽSKÉ PAMĚTIHODNOSTI OPŘEDENÉ LEGENDAMI Půvaby Prahy tkví hluboko v její historii a nezaměnitelné atmosféře. Když jednou vstoupíte do jejích tajemných zákoutí, už se nedokážete z tohoto magického objetí vymanit. Zamilujete se. Vnímáte Prahu všemi smysly. Mezi tóny kostelních zvonů a zvonků možná zaslechnete z věže Pražského hradu i skřipky rytíře Dalibora. Na Karlově mostě se náhodou dotknete kamene, který skrývá čarovný Bruncvíkův meč, a na Staroměstské mostecké věži zahlédnete portrét odvážné lazebnice Zuzany. V kostele u Pražského Jezulátka pocítíte závan křídel sedmi strážných andělů a na Židovském Městě se stín obrovského muže z hlíny mihne kdesi za Staronovou synagogou. Socha knížete Václava na Václavském náměstí, ohnivý kostlivec nebo šílený holič v Karlově ulici ...ti všichni a mnohé další legendární postavy skládají poezii staré Prahy. THE MOST FAMED PRAGUE SIGHTS SWATHED IN LEGEND Prague‘s charm lies deeply buried in its history and its one-of-a-kind atmosphere. Once you set foot in its dark recesses, you never manage to free yourself from its magical embrace. You fall in love. All your senses come alive. Among the tones of Prague‘s bells and chimes you may catch the distant fiddling of the knight Dalibor from his tower in Prague Castle. On Charles Bridge you may happen to stumble across the right stone and discover Bruncvík‘s magical sword. And you are certain to catch a glimpse of the portrait of the brave barber girl Zuzana in the Old Town Bridge Tower. In the church with the Infant Jesus of Prague you will feel the flurry of wings of the seven guardian angels and in the Jewish Town the shadow of the giant man made of clay will pass over you somewhere behind the Old-New Synagogue. The statue of Prince Wenceslas on Wenceslas Square, the fiery skeleton and mad barber on Karlova Street... these and other legendary figures make up the poetry of historic Prague.

NEJPROSLULEJŠÍ PRAŽSKÉ PAMĚTIHODNOSTI OPŘEDENÉ LEGENDAMIPůvaby Prahy tkví hluboko v její historii a nezaměnitelné atmosféře. Když jednou vstoupíte do jejích tajemných zákoutí, už se nedokážete z tohoto magického objetí vymanit. Zamilujete se. Vnímáte Prahu všemi smysly. Mezi tóny kostelních zvonů a zvonků možná zaslechnete z věže Pražského hradu i skřipky rytíře Dalibora. Na Karlově mostě se náhodou dotknete kamene, který skrývá čarovný Bruncvíkův meč, a na Staroměstské mostecké věži zahlédnete portrét odvážné lazebnice Zuzany. V kostele u Pražského Jezulátka pocítíte závan křídel sedmi strážných andělů a na Židovském Městě se stín obrovského muže z hlíny mihne kdesi za Staronovou synagogou. Socha knížete Václava na Václavském náměstí, ohnivý kostlivec nebo šílený holič v Karlově ulici ...ti všichni a mnohé další legendární postavy skládají poezii staré Prahy. LES MONUMENTS LES PLUS CONNUS DE PRAGUE SONT ENTOURÉS DE LEGENDESLe charme de Prague est profondément ancré dans son histoire et son ambiance inimitable. Apres avoir eu l’occasion de découvrir ses recoins mystérieux, vous ne pourrez plus vous soustraire a son étreinte magique. Vous tomberez amoureux. Vous la percevrez a travers tous vos sens. Parmi les tintements des cloches et clochettes pragoises, vous distinguerez peut-etre le son du violon que le chevalier Dalibor fait retentir de la tour du Château de Prague. Sur le pont Charles, il pourrait vous arriver de marcher sur la pierre qui ouvre le chemin vers le glaive enchanté de Bruncvík et, sur la Tour qui relie le pont Charles a la Vieille Ville, vous apercevrez surement le portrait de la vaillante chambriere Zuzana. Dans l’église qui abrite l’enfant Jésus de Prague, vous sentirez le mouvement des ailes des sept anges protecteurs, et au cour de la Ville Juive, l’ombre d’un immense personnage en argile disparaîtra subrepticement quelque part derriere la synagogue Vieille Nouvelle. La statue du prince Venceslas sur la place Václavské náměstí, le squelette en feu ou encore le barbier fou dans la rue Karlova... tous ces personnages, ainsi que nombreuses autres figures légendaires, composent l’univers poétique du vieux Prague.

The spirit of Prague is difficult to describe, although many have tried. For artists at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries the city was a black temptress hidden in the négligé of the white mists of the Vltava, a tempting and treacherous woman, a capricious harlot - a dark Salome who dances with the heads of her paramours. In 1902 the French sculptor Auguste Rodin said that Prague is one of the most sublime cities. Approximately thirty years later another Frenchman, the poet André Breton, proclaimed that Prague was the magic capital of old Europe. And in his celebrated book Magic Prague, written in the latter half of the 20th century, the Italian academic Angelo Maria Ripellino wrote when I seek another word for mystery, the only word I can find is Prague. And he described the city as a breeding ground for phantoms, an arena of sorcery … It is a trap which - once it takes hold with its mists, its black arts, its poisoned honey - does not let go, does not forgive.

A gorgeously jacketed hardcover anthology of stories set in Prague, by an international array of brilliant writers. The Golden City of Prague has long been an intellectual center of the western world. The writers collected here range from the early nineteenth century to the present and include both Prague natives and visitors from elsewhere. Here are stories, legends, and scenes from the city s past and present, from the Jewish fable of the golem, a creature conjured from clay, to tales of German and Soviet invasions. The international array of writers ranges from Franz Kafka to Ivan Klíma to Bruce Chatwin, and includes the award-winning British playwright Tom Stoppard and former American Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, both of whom have Czech roots. Covering the city s venerable Jewish heritage, the glamour of the belle-époque period, World War II, Communist rule, the Prague Spring, the Velvet Revolution, and beyond, Prague Stories weaves a remarkable selection of fiction and nonfiction into a literary portrait of a fascinating city.

Audiokniha: Presvedčivý, inšpiratívny a komicky vznešený príbeh dospievania v doznievajúcom apartheide a búrlivých dňoch slobody, ktoré nasledovali. Zázračná cesta Trevora Noaha z juhoafrického apartheidu k pracovnému stolu The Daily Show sa začala kriminálnym činom: jeho narodením. Trevor je potomkom belocha a černošskej matky. V tom čase im za takéto spojenie hrozilo päť rokov väzenia. Bol živým dôkazom nerozvážnosti svojich rodičov, preto musel stráviť prvých päť rokov života schovaný vnútri, aby ho matka ochránila pred vládnymi úradníkmi, ktorí ho kedykoľvek mohli odviesť. Trevorove zážitky sú veselé a dramaticky pôsobivé. Či už večeria húsenice, lebo časy sú ťažké, alebo ho počas únosu vyhodia z idúceho auta, Trevor opisuje svoj zvláštny svet vtipne a pravdivo. Výsledkom je dojemný a smutno zábavný portrét chlapca, ktorého dnes vďaka televíznym obrazovkám pozná celý svet. „Potešenie obohacujúce dušu… obrovský dar.“ - Denník USA Today „Presvedčivý a neodolateľný životopis... Chvíľami smutný, chvíľami zábavný príbeh prináša znepokojivý obraz Južnej Afriky počas apartheidu cez prizmu netypickej rodiny... Kniha Vinný od narodenia nie je iba tiesnivým opisom dospievania v časoch krutého diskriminačného režimu, ale aj vyznaním lásky autorovej pozoruhodnej matke.“ - New York Times „Nezabudnuteľná kniha... Noah vyrastá pod ostražitým dohľadom svojej obdivuhodnej, nebojácnej matky… Ich intenzívne puto osviežuje a povznáša celý príbeh.“ - People „Toto nie je tuctový životopis jedného komika – je to jedinečný portrét muža, ktorého formovala jeho kultúra, a zároveň prenikavo výstižný ponor do sveta, kde bola časť populácie dlho odstrkovaná a zažila veľmi temné časy.“ - Refinery29 „Trevorov životopis je výnimočný... povinné čítanie v každom ohľade. Ťažko si predstaviť, že by to niekto napísal lepšie.“ - Seattle Times „Noahov príbeh o prežití a ceste k úspechu je ohromujúci.“ - Cosmopolitan „Talentovaný rozprávač so schopnosťou šikovne pretkať dojímavé príbehy zábavnou iróniou.“ - Entertainment Weekly „Dojemná autobiografia je úprimným vyznaním lásky a vďačnosti matke.“ - Washington Post

Trevor Noah je oblíbeným komikem a moderátorem z Jižní Afriky. Uvádí populární satirický pořad v americké televizi, ale především vystupuje ve vlastní stand-up comedy show. V ní s břitkým humorem líčí historky ze svého dětství a mládí a ve stejném duchu koncipuje i tuto knihu. Narozený mimo zákon je sbírkou veselých, dramatických a někdy také dojemných příběhů, které se vzájemně proplétají a prolínají a dohromady vytvářejí obraz pro nás nezvyklého a neznámého světa. Trevorova pozoruhodná životní pouť začala zločinem: příchodem na svět. Narodil se totiž černošské matce a bílému otci v době, kdy Jihoafrickou republiku sužoval apartheid a vztahy mezi partnery odlišné barvy pleti byly pokládány za trestný čin. Pád apartheidu znamenal v tomto ohledu vysvobození, ale život v Jižní Africe ani pak nebyl procházkou růžovým sadem. Ač se musel Trevor živit housenkami, byl vyhozen z jedoucího auta nebo se jen snažil přežít nástrahy randění, odhodlaně se vrhal vstříc dalším dobrodružstvím vyzbrojen důvtipem, smyslem pro humor a bezpodmínečnou láskou své nekonvenční matky.

Prague in the Reign of Rudolph II takes readers back to the days of the Habsburg Emperor Rudolph II (1576-1611) when Prague became the metropolis of the Holy Roman Empire, and when the imperial court was a much sought-after milieu for scholars and artists, as well as magicians and adventurers. As the author notes, almost anyone of importance from inside and even outside the empire had to spend some time in Prague if they wanted to make their name. After an introduction in the form of an historical outline, the reader is guided on an engaging and informative stroll through Rudolphine Prague, which to this day remains full of mystery and legend. On this tour through the period and its monuments, including a peek into the famous imperial collection, the reader is guided by Eliška Fučíková, an outstanding and internationally reknowned expert on Rudolphine art. Her lively and authoritative account is accompanied by about a hundred colour plates of buildings and historic monuments dating from the late Renaissance, together with other graphic documentation, an index of locations with a map of Rudolphine monuments, and an overview of prominent figures.

As seen on The Daily Show, an illustrated portrait of the Donald J. Trump Twitter account, with analysis and scholarly commentary from the writers of The Daily Show and an introduction by Trevor Noah. In June 2017, just steps from Trump Tower in midtown Manhattan, The Daily Show with Trevor Noah opened The Donald J. Trump Presidential Twitter Library, a 4,000-square-foot museum space that gave the 45th president and his amazing Twitter legacy the respect they deserve. In the single weekend it was open to the public, the Library pop-up drew 7,500 visitors and had to turn away countless others. But the Presidential Twitter Library experience should not be limited to the elite coastal few. Not fair!

This book of over 200 photographs by Bernis and Peter von zur Muehlen covers the sweep of Prague’s history from World War II to the “Velvet Revolution.” The first chapter, illustrated by his mother’s black and white snapshots of the city, is an account of Peter’s life in Prague as a young boy during the months leading up to the end of World War II and of his family’s narrow escape days before the Red Army entered the city. The following chapters describe four visits by Bernis and Peter between 1985 and 1992, an epoch that saw Czechoslovakia’s transformation from Communist dictatorship to the restoration of democracy. The images reveal not only a glorious city, but also the many less prominent sites that give Prague its unique charm.Haunting images of the Old Jewish Cemetery remind the reader of the turbulent history of the Jews, nearly exterminated by the Nazis. One chapter traces the evolution of the Lennon Wall, a famous symbol of Prague’s long struggle for freedom. Lively accounts of the photographers’ travel experiences document a city slowly coming to terms with its own history.An afterword by Ori Z. Soltes, noted lecturer and author of twenty books, illuminates the city’s Judaeo-Christian history.

Trevor Noah sa narodil ako syn juhoafrickej matky z kmeňa Xhosa a švajčiarskeho občana. V čase apartheidu boli vzťahy medzi partnermi odlišnej farby pleti neakceptovateľné a pokladali sa za trestný čin. Trevor bol dieťa, ktoré sa vlastne nemalo narodiť, a tak ho museli skrývať. Zažil chudobu, prejavy rasizmu, ale aj odvážnu vzburu svojich farboslepých rodičov , ktorí sa s dôvtipom snažili prekonať etnické a rasové predsudky. Dnes je z neho obľúbený moderátor s vlastnou show, cestuje po celom svete a vystupuje ako stand-up komik pred vypredanými sálami. Jeho rozprávanie sledujeme v navzájom prepojených príbehoch, mnohé sú zábavné či dramatické, iné zasa hlboko dojemné. Trevorova kniha sa pokladá za najúspešnejšiu autobiografiu 21. storočia, keďže nám s dôvtipom a úprimnosťou približuje nezvyčajný svet, na ktorý by sme najradšej zabudli. Spoznávame ťažké detstvo, keď jeho jedálniček pozostával čisto z húseníc, alebo keď ho pri únose vyhodili z idúceho minibusu. Autor nevynechá ani spomienky na sladké trápenie, čo mu pripravili stredoškolské lásky. Celou knihou sa vinie jeho neutíchajúci zmysel pre humor a satiru aj krásne puto k nebojácnej a milujúcej matke. Chránila svojho syna pred kolotočom chudoby, násilia a týrania a ukázala mu cestu k slobode, vzdelaniu a dôstojnému životu.
