A magnificently illustrated study of skin in Renaissance Europe.People in the Renaissance saw skin differently from how we do today. The Europe of 1500 to 1700 was a world of humours, and skin – the clothing of the body – was thought to be dangerously porous.In this landmark book, Evelyn Welch explores Renaissance skin as a bodily surface, as physical matter and as a generator of new knowledge. Ranging across anatomy, surgery and sausage making, she reveals how skin was managed by physicians as well as by glovemakers, butchers and parchment makers. How did people protect their health in a changing global environment, one where the air itself could be pathogenic? How did they see their bodies in a world where there was suddenly a multiplicity of skin colours and decorations? Addressing these questions and more, Welch show us what happens when you see skin differently, either in the marketplace, where men and women from far-away lands were put on display, or under the microscope. In doing so, she reveals that the past had a distinctive and very different way of understanding bodily experiences.

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.

Více zdravotní péče rovná se lepší zdraví? Ne! Právě naopak. Tvrdí to a v této knize dokazuje profesor v oboru medicíny H. Gilbert Welch. Podle něj až příliš mnoho lidí podstupuje screeningové testy a vyšetření se všemi škodlivými dopady. Na základě nepřiměřených, zbytečně poplašných diagnóz pak absolvují léčbu, kterou nepotřebují - a která jim v lepším případě neprospěje a v horším ublíží. Lidem se vnucuje představa, že vyhledávání zdravotní péče je nejdůležitějším prostředkem zachování zdraví a životní pohody. Welch upozorňuje, že s výjimkou akutní zdravotní péče je všechno jinak: -více informací někdy škodí (protože dotyčného vyděsí), -včasná diagnóza může ze vcelku zdravého jedince udělat předčasného pacienta, -snaha omezit rizika paradoxně vytváří rizika nová, -nové metody léčby nemusejí být nutně lepší (jsou jen nebezpečnější), -přehnané úsilí vyhnout se smrti může člověku zkazit celý život. Zkušený lékař a epidemiolog dochází k jednoznačnému závěru: hlavním problémem zdravotní péče je její nepatrná prospěšnost.

Ed Welch pomocí úžasného příběhu od Jocelyn Flanders provádí děti procesem vyznání a prosby za odpuštění. Zároveň poukazuje na to, že hlavní roli v pravdomluvnosti dětí hraje jednání rodičů.

Histories you can trust.The Renaissance is one of the most celebrated periods in European history. But when did it begin? When did it end? And what did it include?Traditionally regarded as a revival of classical art and learning, centred upon fifteenth-century Italy, views of the Renaissance have changed considerably in recent decades. The glories of Florence and the art of Raphael and Michelangelo remain an important element of the Renaissance story, but they are now only a part of a much wider story which looks beyond an exclusive focus on high culture, beyond the Italian peninsula, and beyond the fifteenth century.The Oxford History of the Renaissance tells the cultural history of this broader and longer Renaissance: from seminal figures such as Dante and Giotto in thirteenth-century Italy, to the waning of Spain s golden age in the 1630s, and the closure of the English theatres in 1642, the date generally taken to mark the end of the English literary Renaissance.Geographically, the story ranges from Spanish America to Renaissance Europe s encounter with the Ottomansâ ”and far beyond, to the more distant cultures of China and Japan. And thematically, under Gordon Campbell s expert editorial guidance, the volume covers the whole gamut of Renaissance civilization, with chapters on humanism and the classical tradition; war and the state; religion; art and architecture; the performing arts; literature; craft and technology; science and medicine; and travel and cultural exchange.

Audiokniha: Znal ji celý svět, ale své tajemství si málem odnesla do hrobu… Mladou začínající novinářku Monique Grantovou zaskočí nabídka stárnoucí hollywoodské hvězdy, stranící se už celé roky veřejnosti a médií, aby napsala její knižní biografii. V životní cestě Evelyn Hugo, která byla plná skandálů i úspěchů a jejímiž milníky se stalo vedle několika oscarových nominací především sedmero hereččiných manželství, se odráží nejen proměna americké továrny na sny, ale do jisté míry též dějiny ženské emancipace ve Spojených státech. Což je trochu paradox, protože ona sama je nejlepším příkladem toho, že některé věci se zkrátka nemění – ženy stále těží ze své krásy, šoubyznys je pořád plný falše a obyčejné lidi nepřestává fascinovat svět bohatých a mocných. Není divu, že barvitý příběh filmové divy vzbuzuje v Monique plno otázek. Jedna ji ovšem trápí víc než ostatní: Proč právě ona? Nejúspěšnější z řady bestsellerů, které úspěšné americké spisovatelce získaly miliony fanoušků po celém světě. „Evelyn Hugo je okouzlující ikona, kterou budete obdivovat, ale také nezdolná bojovnice, jakou byste chtěli být. Její životní příběh vezme člověka za srdce a pohltí čtenáře až do poslední stránky.“ – Jamie Blynn, US Weekly. „Nejdřív sňatek, který uzavřela ještě jako neplnoletá a který skončil rozvodem v jejích osmnácti letech. Potom námluvy zosnované filmovým studiem a bouřlivé manželství s králem Hollywoodu Donem Adlerem. Zvěsti o tom, že ho opustila, protože ji bil. Její comeback ve snímku Francouzské nové vlny. Blesková svatba ve Vegas se zpěvákem Mickem Rivou. Oslnivé manželství s elegantním Rexem Northem, které zkrachovalo na mimomanželských avantýrách obou zúčastněných. Krásný milostný příběh jejího života s Harrym Cameronem a narození jejich dcery Connor. Srdcervoucí rozvod a Evelynina téměř okamžitá svatba s jejím dávným režisérem Maxem Girardem. Údajná aféra s o mnoho mladším kongresmanem Jackem Eastonem, která ukončila vztah s Girardem. A konečně manželství s finančníkem Robertem Jamisonem; o sňatku se šuškalo, že Evelyn k němu přinejmenším částečně ponoukla touha pomstít se své někdejší herecké kolegyni – a Robertově sestře – Celii St. James. Teď už jsou však všichni její manželé po smrti, a Evelyn je tudíž jediná, kdo má do výše zmíněných vztahů vhled.“ – ukázka z knihy.

Featuring the beauties of Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci, combined with the dark and hidden side of the Renaissance, by an acclaimed historian and expert in the period.Renowned as an age of artistic rebirth, the Renaissance is cloaked with an aura of beauty and brilliance. But behind the Mona Lisaâ ™s smile lurked a seamy, vicious world of power politics, perversity and corruption that has more in common with the present day than anyone dares to admit. Enter a world of corrupt bankers, greedy politicians, sex-crazed priests, rampant disease, and lives of extravagance and excess. Enter the world of the ugly Renaissance. Uncovering the hidden realities beneath the surface of the periodâ ™s best-known artworks, historian Alexander Lee takes the reader on a breathtaking and unexpected journey through the Italian past and shows that, far from being the product of high-minded ideals, the sublime monuments of the Renaissance were created by flawed and tormented artists who lived in an ever-expanding world of bigotry and hatred. The only question is: will you ever see the Renaissance in quite the same way again?

The Renaissance is one of the most studied and celebrated eras of history. Spanning the end of the Middle Ages to the beginning of modernity, it has come to symbolise the transformative rebirth of knowledge, art, culture and political thought in Europe. And for the last two hundred years, historians have struggled to describe what makes this famous golden age unique.In Inventing the Renaissance, acclaimed historian Ada Palmer provides a fresh perspective on what makes this epoch so captivating. Her witty and irreverent journey through the fantasies historians have constructed about the period show how its legend derives more from later centuries⠙ mythmaking than from the often grim reality of the period itself. She examines its defining figures and movements: the enduring legacy of Niccolò Machiavelli, the rediscovery of the classics, the rise of the Medici and fall of the Borgias, the astonishing artistic achievements of Michelangelo, Leonardo, and Cellini, the impact of the Inquisition and the expansion of secular Humanism. Palmer also explores the ties between culture and money: books, for example, could cost as much as grand houses, so the period⠙s innovative thinkers could only thrive with the help of the super-rich. She offers fifteen provocative and entertaining character portraits of Renaissance men and women, some famous, some obscure, whose intersecting lives show how the real Renaissance was more unexpected, more international and, above all, more desperate than its golden reputation suggests.Drawing on her popular blogs and writing with her characteristic energy and wit, Palmer presents the Renaissance as we have never seen it before. Colloquial, funny and brilliant, you would never expect a work of deep scholarship to make you alternately laugh and cry.

An exploration of the rich creative influence of Italian Renaissance art on the designs of contemporary Italian fashion houses  Successful Italian fashion houses such as Armani, Dolce Gabbana and Versace are among the most high-profile and cutting-edge on the global fashion scene. Many of the innovative designs created by these and other major Italian houses draw on imagery from Italy⠙s rich cultural and artistic past. Weaving together insightful texts and vivid illustrations, this book explores the creative, cultural and social dialogues between contemporary Italian fashion houses and the enduring legacy of Renaissance Italy.  During the Renaissance, the Italian peninsula was dominated by powerful aristocratic families or ⠜houses,⠝ such as the Medici in Florence and the Sforza in Milan, whose members used fashion and art to communicate their power. Through essays by scholars and fashion industry professionals, including Luca Missoni of the House of Missoni and Stefania Ricci, director of the Ferragamo Museum, this book provides an insider look at the creative connections between Italian Renaissance ⠜houses⠝ and contemporary Italian fashion houses, and the design innovations that celebrate the vital legacy of Italian Renaissance imagery. Art directed by Luca Stoppini, former Vogue Italia creative director, this book features an inventive, oversize design reminiscent of Vogue magazine⠙s storied annual ⠜September Issue,⠝ conveying a gripping story about contemporary Italian fashion and enlivened with runway and art images, as well as original photography inspired by nostalgic glossy editorials.  Distributed for the Cleveland Museum of Art  Exhibition Schedule:  Cleveland Museum of Art (November 9, 2025⠓February 1, 2026)

Brideshead Revisited is Evelyn Waugh s stunning novel of duty and desire set amongst the decadent, faded glory of the English aristocracy in the run-up to the Second World War.The most nostalgic and reflective of Evelyn Waugh s novels, Brideshead Revisited looks back to the golden age before the Second World War. It tells the story of Charles Ryder s infatuation with the Marchmains and the rapidly disappearing world of privilege they inhabit. Enchanted first by Sebastian Flyte at Oxford, then by his doomed Catholic family, in particular his remote sister, Julia, Charles comes finally to recognise his spiritual and social distance from them.Evelyn Waugh (1903-66) was born in Hampstead, second son of Arthur Waugh, publisher and literary critic, and brother of Alec Waugh, the popular novelist. In 1928 he published his first work, a life of Dante Gabriel Rossetti, and his first novel, Decline and Fall, which was soon followed by Vile Bodies (1930), A Handful of Dust (1934) and Scoop (1938). In 1939 he was commissioned in the Royal Marines and later transferred to the Royal Horse Guards, serving in the Middle East and in Yugoslavia. In 1942 he published Put Out More Flags and then in 1945 Brideshead Revisited. Men at Arms (1952) was the first volume of The Sword of Honour trilogy, and won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize; the other volumes, Officers and Gentlemen and Unconditional Surrender, followed in 1955 and 1961.If you enjoyed Brideshead Revisited, you might like Waugh s Vile Bodies, also available in Penguin Classics.

The Harlem Renaissance was a cultural awakening among African Americans between the two world wars. It was the cultural phase of the New Negro movement, a social and political phenomenon that promoted a proud racial identity, economic independence, and progressive politics. In this Very Short Introduction, Cheryl A. Wall captures the Harlem Renaissance s zeitgeist by identifying issues and strategies that engaged writers, musicians, and visual artists alike. She introduces key figures such as Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, Claude McKay, and Jean Toomer, along with such signature texts as Mother to Son, Harlem Shadows, and Cane. In examining the New Negro, she looks at the art of photographer James Van der Zee and painters Archibald Motley and Laura Wheeler and the way Marita Bonner, Jessie Fauset, and Nella Larsen explored the dilemmas of gender identity for New Negro women. Focusing on Harlem as a cultural capital, Wall covers theater in New York, where black musicals were produced on Broadway almost every year during the 1920s. She also depicts Harlem nightlife with its rent parties and clubs catering to working class blacks, wealthy whites, and gays of both races, and the movement of Renaissance artists to Paris.From Hughes s The Negro Speaks of Rivers to W.E.B. Du Bois s novel Dark Princess, black Americans explored their relationship to Africa. Many black American intellectuals met African intellectuals in Paris, where they made common cause against European colonialism and race prejudice. Folklore - spirituals, stories, sermons, and dance - was considered raw material that the New Negro artist could alchemize into art. Consequently, they applauded the performance of spirituals on the concert stage by artists like Roland Hayes and Paul Robeson. The Harlem Renaissance left an indelible mark not only on African American visual and performing arts, but, as Cheryl Wall shows, its legacies are all around us.

A provocative essay collection that theorizes the Renaissance through the lens of kink. The Kinky Renaissance is a groundbreaking collection of essays that explore kink as a theoretical analytic, a historical formation, and an aesthetic mode. The essays in this work expand the sexual archive and its lexicon by introducing new vocabularies to familiar sexual scenes in early modern literature and culture and by bringing lesser-known scenes to bear on the study of sexuality in the period. Providing a capacious theory of sexuality and historical precedents for contemporary kinky practices, The Kinky Renaissance explores the erotic potential of early modern literature and pauses over various kinks nestled between and beside them. The collection boldly argues for a broader concept of a kinky Renaissanceâ ”one which reorients the terms of both the history of sexuality and queer theory more broadly.

Westernová novela Zima v krvi, zasazená do šedesátých let 20. století, uvádí čtenáře do života indiánské komunity v rezervaci Fort Belknap v severoamerickém státě Montana. Protagonistou příběhu a současně jeho vypravěčem je bezejmenný indiánský mladík, odcizený své rodině i zemi, ubíjený pocitem existenciální prázdnoty, před níž marně uniká ke kerouacovsky nevázanému životu plnému divokých jízd, alkoholu či náhodného sexu. Jeho výpravy do nepřátelského světa mimo rezervaci, zpočátku motivované opětovným získáním odcizených věcí, se však postupně proměňují v cesty za nalezením vlastní identity a štěstí. A jeho pouť jej navíc přivede k odhalení dávného rodinného tajemství… Novela je prvotinou klasika americké indiánské literatury Jamese Welche (1940-2003). Autor patřil k předním představitelům hnutí Native American Renaissance (L. M. Silková, L. Erdrichová ad.), jež se od konce šedesátých let minulého století podílelo na oživení historického a kulturního dědictví původních obyvatel Severní Ameriky. Na motivy knihy byl v roce 2013 natočen stejnojmenný film. České vydání doplňuje doslov amerikanisty Miroslava Černého, který zasazuje Welchovo dílo do kontextu soudobé americké literatury a současně stručně naznačuje jeho význam ve vztahu k literatuře s indiánskou tematikou dosud vydané v České republice.

Smrt Jima Loneyho (1979) je po novele Zima v krvi (1974) druhou autorovou prózou věnovanou novodobým osudům původních obyvatel Severní Ameriky. Jim Loney je míšenec bělošského a indiánského původu. Odcizený oběma těmto společenstvím, vede v malém městečku v Montaně samotářský a bezútěšný život, naplněný nicneděláním a alkoholem. V dětství jej opustila matka i otec, a tak mu zůstala jen sestra Kate, která ale nechápe jeho svět. A také přítelkyně Rhea, která touží dát Loneyho životu nový cíl. Jeho existenci však může dát smysl jediné - přestat utíkat před minulostí a pokusit se nalézt své skutečné kořeny. A to i za cenu ztráty vlastního života… Rozsahem nevelká Welchova próza rozvíjí dojemný příběh o lásce bez naděje a životní cestě za pravdou vedoucí k sebezničení. - Vychází za laskavé podpory Ministerstva kultury ČR. James Welch (1940-2003) byl indiánský autor, jehož předkové pocházeli z kmenů Blackfeet a Gros Ventre. Jako přední představitel hnutí Native American Renaissance (L. M. Silková, L.

In just a short amount of time, the foundations for European life were uprooted and examined, leading people, including Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo, to explore new ways of thinking and being. Readers will learn why the Renaissance was such a pivotal time in European history and how it still influences us.

Peter Adamson explores the rich intellectual history of the Byzantine Empire and the Italian Renaissance.Peter Adamson presents an engaging and wide-ranging introduction to the thinkers and movements of two great intellectual cultures: Byzantium and the Italian Renaissance. First he traces the development of philosophy in the Eastern Christian world, from such early figures as John of Damascus in the eighth century to the late Byzantine scholars of the fifteenth century. He introduces major figures like Michael Psellos, Anna Komnene, and Gregory Palamas, and examines the philosophical significance of such cultural phenomena as iconoclasm and conceptions of gender. We discover the little-known traditions of philosophy in Syriac, Armenian, and Georgian. These chapters also explore the scientific, political, and historical literature of Byzantium. There is a close connection to the second half of the book, since thinkers of the Greek East helped to spark the humanist movement in Italy. Adamson tells the story of the rebirth of philosophy in Italy in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. We encounter such famous names as Christine de Pizan, Niccolò Machiavelli, Giordano Bruno, and Galileo, but as always in this book series such major figures are read alongside contemporaries who are not so well known, including such fascinating figures as Lorenzo Valla, Girolamo Savonarola, and Bernardino Telesio. Major historical themes include the humanist engagement with ancient literature, the emergence of women humanists, the flowering of Republican government in Renaissance Italy, the continuation of Aristotelian and scholastic philosophy alongside humanism, and breakthroughs in science. All areas of philosophy, from theories of economics and aesthetics to accounts of the human mind, are featured. This is the sixth volume of Adamson s History of Philosophy Without Any Gaps, taking us to the threshold of the early modern era.
