A Globe 100 Best Book of 2025 • A Globe and Mail Fall Book of 2025"A writer only feels like a writer when in the act. And the will, I said, is never enough . . . Where does inspiration, that sacred rage, originate? Maybe it’s just a matter of stubbornly starting something new and writing your way into the slot."—Steven HeightonIn the years before his unexpected death, Steven Heighton wrote to his longtime editor John Metcalf to say that he understood that the short story marked his most important contribution to literature, and that “after the novels, rereading and writing short stories again felt like returning home.” In the fifteen stories taken from across his four collections, Sacred Rage offers us Heighton as the moral explorer of the global suburbs, as chronicler of our innermost stories of love and fear, sleeping and waking, of a rebel “unabashedly devoted to the old pursuit,” as he once called it, “of truth and beauty.” These are stories of grace and the lack of it; of elegy and requiem; of hope and care in a world where these seem increasingly alien, stories by one of our most sharp-eyed and generous writers, whether you’re ...

This anthology asks how the handling, use, and embodied enactments of sacred texts regulate, entangle, occlude, tolerate, or even subvert religious and gendered identities. While many studies have looked at the semantic content of sacred texts to answer this question, the volume mends a knowledge gap by looking at the effects on gender that follow both from uses of sacred texts as directly accessible, material objects and from embodied enactments of sacred texts in indirect ways. To signify the embodied enactment of sacred texts, not directly at hand, Marianne Schleicher coins the term sacred texture in the introduction to extend sacred text studies to capture both the textuality of poetic and narrative expressions in oral cultures and how most lay people, often women, have expressed their religiosity through indirect uses of sacred texts through bodily enactments. Among the insights this volume offers are how Old Norse women''s composition of oral sacred textures renders their gender fluid, how a sacred text in Numbers 5 is used to handle a woman and simultaneously bolsters the masculinities of the involved men, how Jewish women through centuries have been intelligible as such by enabling men''s direct access to sacred texts or by bodily enacting ...

Although claims to sacredness are often linked to the power of a distant past, the work of making places sacred is creative, novel, renewable, and reversible. This Element highlights how sacred space is newly made. It is often associated with blood, death, and geographic anomalies, yet no single feature determines sacred associations. People make space sacred by connecting with ]''extrahuman'' figures – the ancestors, spirits, and gods that people attempt to interact with in every society. These connections can be concentrated in people''s bodies, yet bodies are particularly vulnerable to loss. The Element also examines the multidimensional and multisensory dimensions of sacred space, which can be made almost anywhere, including online, but can also be unmade. Unmaking sacred space can entail new sacralization. New and minority religions in particular provide excellent sites for studying sacredness as a value, raising the reliably productive question: sacred for whom?

From classicist James Romm comes a “striking…fascinating” (Booklist) deep dive into the last decades of ancient Greek freedom leading up to Alexander the Great’s destruction of Thebes—and the saga of the greatest military corps of the time, the Theban Sacred Band, a unit composed of 150 pairs of male lovers.The story of the Sacred Band, an elite 300-man corps recruited from pairs of lovers, highlights a chaotic era of ancient Greek history, four decades marked by battles, ideological disputes, and the rise of vicious strongmen. At stake was freedom, democracy, and the fate of Thebes, at this time the leading power of the Greek world. The tale begins in 379 BC, with a group of Theban patriots sneaking into occupied Thebes. Disguised in women’s clothing, they cut down the agents of Sparta, the state that had cowed much of Greece with its military might. To counter the Spartans, this group of patriots would form the Sacred Band, a corps whose history plays out against a backdrop of Theban democracy, of desperate power struggles between leading city-states, and the new prominence of eros, sexual love, in Greek public life. After four decades without a defeat, the Sacred Band was annihilated by ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Sacred Nature: Animism and Materiality in Ancient Religions is the second volume of the series Material Religion in Antiquity (MaReA). The book collects the proceedings of the international online workshop carrying the same title organized by CAMNES, SoRS on 20–21 May 2021. Sacred Nature brings together the perspectives of scholars from different disciplines (archaeology, anthropology, iconography, philology, history of religions) about the notions of nature, sacredness, animism and materiality in ancient religions of the Old and the New World. The contributions highlight various ways of understandings the relationships that occurred between human beings, animals, plants, rivers, deities and the land in the religious life of ancient societies. In particular, each chapter explores entangled aspects of the perception of nature and its other-than-human inhabitants, and contributes to readdress some notions about nature, personhood/agency, divinity/sacrality, and materiality/spirituality in ancient religions and cosmologies. In this line, the book seeks to promote a starkly inter-disciplinary and religious-anthropological approach to the definition of ‘sacred nature’, especially engaging with the analytical category of animism as a fruitful conceptual tool for the investigation of human-environmental relations in the ancient religious conceptions, representations and practices.

Sourozenci Melanie, Annie a Steven Fordovi zažili to, co zažívá mnoho dětí – jejich rodiče se rozvedli. Ve své knize popisují, čím si prošli, co se naučili zvládnout a jak vnímali to, že se jejich rodiče rozešli. „Co mám dělat, když se rodiče hádají?“ „Co to znamená, když se rozvedou?“ „Jak to, že mi nedokážou říci, že se budou rozvádět?“ „Můžu to nějak zastavit?“ Kde budu bydlet, co se mnou bude?“ „Táta si našel přítelkyni. Jak se k ní mám chovat?“ a podobné otázky se honí hlavou většině dětí, jejichž rodiče procházejí rozvodem. Melanie, Annie a Steven na ně dokážou odpovědět, protože to také zažili. Knihu zapsala Jann Blackstone-Ford, mediátorka specializující se na rozvody a konflikty v nevlastních rodinách. Založila neziskovou organizaci Bonus Families, která se věnuje tématu komunikace mezi rozvedenými partnery a jejich novými rodinami.

Odehrál třetí nejvyšší počet zápasů za reprezentaci v historii anglického fotbalu. Byl pravděpodobně nejlepším a zcela jistě nejzanícenějším britským sportovcem své generace. Ale kdo je vlastně Steven Gerrard? Za svůj milovaný Liverpool odehrál více než 700 zápasů a za národní tým Anglie dalších 114. Steven Gerrard je sportovec, jemuž se nikdo nevyrovná v oddanosti spoluhráčům, a je nezpochybnitelným vzorem. Ale díky čemu se stal tím, kým je? A díky čemu se mu podařilo zůstat tak dlouho na vrcholu v nejtěžší lize světa? V knize Můj příběh vypráví Gerrard upřímně o své mimořádné kariéře, klíčových zápasech a momentech, na něž nám nabízí vlastní pohled ze hřiště. Ať už je to úžasný obrat Liverpoolu ve finále Ligy mistrů 2005 nebo jeho starty na mistrovstvích světa a Evropy, podává nám vzrušující obraz výher – a proher – před desítkami tisíc bouřících fanoušků. A především je to úžasný a velmi vzácný osobní příběh o tom, jaké to je zůstat věrný jedinému klubu v časech dobrých i zlých. Bez vytáček, odvážně a upřímně se v knize Stevena Gerrarda Můj příběh vypráví o typu hráčů, kteří už vymírají – o muži, jenž drží slovo a jenž je věrný svému klubu i sám sobě.

STEVEN GERRARD odohral za reprezentáciu Anglicka tretí najvyšší počet zápasov v jej histórii. Možno ho považovať za najväčšieho a nepochybne najoddanejšieho britského športovca jeho generácie. No kto je v skutočnosti Steven Gerrard? Predovšetkým je to jeden z najpríťažlivejších športových vzorov. Za svoj milovaný Liverpool odohral viac než sedemsto zápasov a ďalších stoštrnásť v drese anglického národného tímu. Ako sa však stal tým, kým bol? Ako sa mu podarilo udržať tak dlho v špičke najťažšej futbalovej ligy sveta? V knihe Môj príbeh hovorí Steven Gerrard otvorene o svojej výnimočnej futbalovej kariére, o pozadí kľúčových zápasov a prináša zaujatý pohľad hráča priamo na ihrisku. Či rozpráva o ohromujúcom triumfe Liverpoolu v Lige majstrov v roku 2005, alebo o svojich výkonoch na mnohých svetových a európskych turnajoch, zakaždým nám sprostredkúva vzrušujúci zážitok z prežívania výhier – i prehier – pred zrakmi desiatok tisícov rozvášnených divákov. Nadovšetko však spoznávame neuveriteľný a zriedkavý osobný príbeh o lojalite k jednému klubu v dobrom i v zlom, nech bola cena akákoľvek. Kniha Môj príbeh je poslednou bodkou odvážneho, statočného, poctivého, no i chybujúceho futbalistu, akí sa už nerodia, je príbehom muža, ktorý si stál za svojím slovom, za svojím klubom a bol vždy sám sebou.

"Zlomový okamžik v životě Vladimira Vladimiroviče Putina nastal na podzim roku 1989 v Drážďanech. Před místní rezidenturou KGB, kde mladý Putin sloužil, se shromáždil dav protestujících, kteří chtěli vzít nenáviděnou organizaci útokem. Bez vojenské podpory nemohl Putin budovu dlouho udržet. Rozhodl se tedy blafovat. Vyšel neozbrojen před bránu a prohlásil: "Moji vojáci mají zbraně. Vydal jsem jim rozkazy: pokud někdo vkročí do objektu, mají zahájit palbu." Zástup protestujících se rozešel. Ve své knize Nový car: Vzestup a vláda Vladimira Putina předkládá americký investigativní novinář Steven Lee Myers barvitý obraz muže, který se z řadového agenta KGB vyšvihl až na vrchol vládní pyramidy - stal se ruským prezidentem. V důkladně rešeršovaných kapitolách rozebírá Putinovu rodinu a dětství, jeho kariérní růst i kontroverzní rozhodnutí v pozici prezidenta. Výsledkem je přesvědčivý a živý psychologický portrét člověka, jehož prvotní motivací je zachování zdání autority za každou cenu, člověka, který nedává najevo slabost, který improvizuje i chladně kalkuluje a u něhož se cílevědomost váže s výkonností a flexibilitou.

This lucid, brilliant book refuses to abandon capitalism to those who believe morality and justice irrelevant to an economic system." -Ezra Klein, founder and editor-at-large, VoxPulitzer Prize-winning economics journalist Steven Pearlstein argues that our thirty year experiment in unfettered markets has undermined core values required to make capitalism and democracy work.With a New Introduction by the AuthorThirty years ago, "greed is good" and "maximizing shareholder value" became the new mantras woven into the fabric of our business culture, economy, and politics. Although, around the world, free market capitalism has lifted more than a billion people from poverty, in the United States most of the benefits of economic growth have been captured by the richest 10%, along with providing justification for squeezing workers, cheating customers, avoiding taxes, and leaving communities in the lurch.

In Scotland’s Sacred Goddess: Hidden in Plain Sight, Stuart McHardy delves into the rich tapestry of pre-Christian Scottish beliefs, uncovering the enduring presence of ancient mythologies in today’s landscape. Long before the arrival of Christian monks, the Scots revered a pantheon of deities, with the Cailleach Goddess at its heart. McHardy skillfully weaves together ancient oral traditions, place names, local folklore and the shapes of the land itself to reveal the lingering echoes of these ancient beliefs. He traces how the stories of witches, the Devil and other supernatural beings are rooted in these early mythologies, highlighting a powerful feminine force central to creation and understanding the world. This book explores how ancient stories, though transformed over millennia, continue to influence Scotland’s cultural and physical landscape, offering a fresh perspective on how ancient myths and the sacred feminine still influence the modern world. McHardy’s work is a profound testament to the enduring legacy of Scotland’s sacred goddess.

A fascinating and incisive examination of our language instinct from award-winning science writer Steven Mithen.Along with the concepts of consciousness and intelligence, our capacity for language sits right at the core of what makes us human. But while the evolutionary origins of language have provoked speculation and impassioned debate, music has been neglected if not ignored. Like language it is a universal feature of human culture, one that is a permanent fixture in our daily lives.In THE SINGING NEANDERTHALS, Steven Mithen redresses the balance, drawing on a huge range of sources, from neurological case studies through child psychology and the communication systems of non-human primates to the latest paleoarchaeological evidence.The result is a fascinating and provocative work and a succinct riposte to those, like Steven Pinker, who have dismissed music as a functionless and unimportant evolutionary byproduct.

Sowing the Sacred traces the development of Pentecostalism among Mexican-American migrant laborers in California''s agricultural industry from the 1910s to the 1960s. At the time, Pentecostalism was often seen as a distasteful new sect rife with cultish and fanatical tendencies; U.S. growers thought of Mexicans as no more than a mere workforce not fit for citizenship; and industrial agriculture was celebrated for feeding American families while its exploitation of workers went largely ignored. Farmworkers were made out to be culturally vacuous and lacking creative genius, simple laborers caught in a vertiginous cycle of migrant work. This book argues that farmworkers from La Asamblea Apostólica de la Fe en Cristo Jesús carved out a robust socio-religious existence despite these conditions, and in doing so produced a vast record of cultural vibrancy. Examining racialized portrayals of Mexican workers and their religious lives through images created by farmworkers themselves, Sowing the Sacred draws on oral histories, photographs, and materials from new archival collections to tell an intimate story of sacred-space making. In showing how these workers mapped out churches, performed outdoor baptisms in grower-controlled waterways, and built and maintained houses of worship in the fields, this book considers the role that historical memory ...
