The Masque of Africa - V.S. Naipaul
Moving beyond travelogue, V. S. Naipaul''s The Masque of Africa considers the effects of belief (in indigenous animisms, the foreign religions of Christianity and Islam, the cults of leaders and mythical history) upon the progress of African civilization. Beginning in Uganda, at the centre of the continent, Naipaul’s journey takes in Ghana and Nigeria, the Ivory Coast and Gabon, and ends, as the country does, in South Africa.Focusing upon the theme of belief – though sometimes the political or economical realities are so overwhelming that they have to be taken into account – Naipaul examines the fragile but enduring quality of the old world of magic. To witness the ubiquity of such ancient ritual, to be given some idea of its power, was to be taken far back to the beginning of things. To reach that beginning was the purpose of this book.‘The quality of Naipaul’s writing – simple, concise, engaging – rarely varies . . . Above all, Naipaul’s latest African journey is eyewitness reporting at its best’ TimePart of the Picador Collection, a series celebrating fifty years of Picador books and showcasing the best of modern literature.

The Enigma of Arrival - V.S. Naipaul
Taking its title from the strangely frozen picture by the surrealist painter Giorgio de Chirico, The Enigma of Arrival tells the story of a young Indian from the Caribbean arriving in post-imperial England and consciously, over many years, finding himself as a writer. It is the story of a journey, from one place to another, from the British colony of Trinidad to the ancient countryside of England, and from one state of mind to another, and is perhaps V.S. Naipaul’s most autobiographical work. Yet alongside this he weaves a rich and complex web of invention and observation.Finding depth and pathos in the smallest moments – the death of a cottager, the firing of an estate’s gardener – Naipaul also comprehends the bigger picture – watching as the old world is lost to the gradual but permanent changes wrought on the English landscape by the march of ‘progress’.‘Written with the expected beauty of style . . . Instead of diminishing life, Naipaul ennobles it’ Anthony Burgess, The ObserverNow part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the very best of modern literature.

The Writer and the World - V.S. Naipaul
During forty years of travel, V. S. Naipaul has created a wide-ranging body of work, an exceptional and sustained meditation on our world. Now his finest pieces of reflection and reportage – many of which have been unavailable for some time – are collected in one volume. With an abiding faith in modernity balanced by a sense of wonder about the past, Naipaul has explored an astonishing variety of societies and peoples through the prism of his experience. Whether writing about Indian mutinies and despair, Mobutu’s mad reign in Zaire, or the New York mayoral elections, he demonstrates time and again that no one has a shrewder intuition of the ways in which the world works. Infused with a deeply felt humanism, The Writer and the World attests powerfully not only to Naipaul’s status as the great English prose stylist of our time but also to his keen, often prophetic, understanding. ‘All [of these essays] are worth reading (and rereading), both for the contemporary and historical information and insight they artfully impart and for what they tell us about a uniquely complex writer’ Spectator

An Introduction to Journalism - Silvio Waisbord
Journalism remains a vital, irreplaceable institution in the public sphere, even though technology, political and economic trends, and globalization continue to impact it in negative ways. An Introduction to Journalism is the new go-to textbook for journalism studies. Organized around three thematic sections – structures, practices, and change and continuity – this textbook covers a broad range of issues central to the study of journalism. These include the nature of news as a socio-cultural construct; the impact of social forces (political, economic, technology, cultural) on journalistic practices and news content; the origin and the impact of journalistic norms, values, and ideologies; patterns of news access and consumption; the relation between journalism and public life; and the role of the press in democracy and authoritarianism. Taking a global perspective throughout, the textbook is grounded in the conviction that we need to examine developments across countries and regions, and understand how global forces shape news, journalism, and the news industry.  Supported by extensive examples and clear case studies throughout, this accessible textbook, written by a leading scholar in the field, provides a comprehensive and analytical survey of the key themes that shape journalism.

Investigative Journalism in Changing Times
This book offers new insights into the crucial role of investigative journalism at a pivotal time of technological changes and upheavals. It surveys innovations and unexpected impacts of the field, from past and present challenges and what may be in store for the future of the industry. The book begins by exploring the increasingly investigative innovations in political and independent reporting, along with a comparison of the rhetoric and reality of a so-called golden era of investigative journalism in the past and the present. It goes on to analyse the growth of creative and sports investigative reporting, as well as the ability of contemporary conflict journalism to overcome surmounting challenges. It also examines the capacity of groundbreaking investigations, including data reporting, to expose injustices involving women, indigenous communities and other minorities.

Journalism - Ian Hargreaves
Journalism entered the twenty-first century caught in a paradox. The world had more journalism, across a wider range of media, than at any time since the birth of the western free press in the eighteenth century. Western journalists had found themselves under a cloud of suspicion: from politicians, philosophers, the general public, anti-globalization radicals, religious groups, and even from fellow journalists. Critics argued that the news industry had lost its moral bearings, focusing on high investment returns rather than reporting and analysing the political, economic, and social issues of the day.Journalism has a central and profound impact on our worldview; we find it everywhere from newspapers and television, to radio and the Internet. In the new edition of this thought-provoking and provocative Very Short Introduction, Ian Hargreaves examines the world of contemporary journalism. By looking not only at what journalism has been in the past, but also what it is becoming in the digital age, he examines the big issues relating to reportage, warfare, celebrity culture, privacy, and technology worldwide.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area.

An Area of Darkness - V.S. Naipaul
A classic of modern travel writing, An Area of Darkness is Nobel laureate V. S.

These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition is introduced by internationally acclaimed author Paul Theroux.Traveling from the bureaucratic morass of Bombay to the ethereal beauty of Kashmir, from a sacred ice cave in the Himalayas to an abandoned temple near Madras, Naipaul encounters a dizzying cross-section of humanity: browbeaten government workers and imperious servants, a suavely self-serving holy man and a deluded American religious seeker. An Area of Darkness also abounds with Naipaul’s strikingly original responses to India’s paralyzing caste system, its acceptance of poverty and squalor, and the conflict between its desire for self-determination and its nostalgia for the British raj. This may be the most elegant and passionate book ever written about the subcontinent.

Guerrillas - V.S. Naipaul
Set on a troubled Caribbean island – where Asians, Africans, Americans and former British colonials co-exist in a state of suppressed hysteria – V. S. Naipaul''s Guerrillas is a novel of colonialism and revolution. A white man arrives with his mistress, an Englishwoman influenced by fantasies of native power and sexuality, unaware of the consequences of her actions. Together with a leader of the ‘revolution’, they act out a gripping drama of death, sexual violence and spiritual impotence. Guerrillas depicts a convulsion in public life, and ends in private violence. The novel comes with extraordinary force from the centre of a profound moral awareness of the world’s plight. ‘Impeccable . . .

Journalism and the Metaverse - John V. Pavlik
Journalism has been in a state of disruption since the development of the Internet. The Metaverse, what some describe as the future of the Internet, is likely to fuel even further disruption in journalism. Digital platforms and journalism enterprises are already investing substantial resources into the Metaverse or its likely components of augmented reality, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence.. Although research shows most of the public has little knowledge of the Metaverse, many are keenly interested in what it or its components may bring. Gartner (2022) predicts that a quarter of the public will spend at least one hour per day in the Metaverse by 2026. Journalism may be an important part of this future. This book will provide a critical examination of the implications of the Metaverse for the continuing transformation of journalism in the digital age.

The Loss of El Dorado - V.S. Naipaul
At the centre of this extraordinary historical narrative are two linked themes: the grinding down of the aborigines during the long rivalries of the quest for El Dorado, the mythical kingdom of gold; and, two hundred years later, the man-made horror of the new slave colony. In The Loss of El Dorado, V. S. Naipaul shows how the alchemic delusion of El Dorado drew the small island of Trinidad into the vortex of world events, making it the object of Spanish and English colonial designs and a Mecca for treasure-seekers, slave-traders, and revolutionaries. And through an accumulation of casual, awful detail, he takes us as close as we can get to day-to-day life in the Caribbean slave plantations – at the time thought to be more brutal than their American equivalents. In this brilliantly researched book, living characters large and small are rescued from the records and set in a larger, guiding narrative – about the New World, empire, African slavery, revolution – which is never less than gripping.

The Mimic Men - V.S. Naipaul
With a preface by the author.V. S. Naipaul''s The Mimic Men is a profound, moving and often humorous novel that evokes a colonial man’s experience in the post-colonial world. Born of Indian heritage, raised in the British-dependent Caribbean island of Isabella, and educated in England, forty-year-old Ralph Singh has spent a lifetime struggling against the torment of cultural displacement. Now in exile from his native country, he has taken up residence at a quaint hotel in a London suburb, where he is writing his memoirs in an attempt to impose order on a chaotic existence. His memories lead him to recognize the cultural paradoxes and tainted fantasies of his colonial childhood and later life: his attempts to fit in at school, his short-lived marriage to an ostentatious white woman. But it is the return to Isabella and his subsequent immersion in the roiling political atmosphere of a newly self-governing nation – every kind of racial fantasy taking wing – that ultimately provide Singh with the necessary insight to discover the crux of his disillusionment.‘A Tolstoyan spirit . . . The so-called Third World has produced no more brilliant literary artist’ John Updike, New Yorker

A timely new edition of the classic journalism text, now featuring updated material on the importance of reporting in the age of media mistrust and fake news—and how journalists can use technology to navigate its challengesMore than two decades ago, the Committee of Concerned Journalists gathered some of America’s most influential newspeople and asked them, “What is journalism for?” Through exhaustive research, surveys, interviews, and public forums, the committee identified the essential elements that define journalism and its role in our society. The result is one of the most important books on media ever written—winner of the Goldsmith Book Prize from Harvard, a Society of Professional Journalists Award, and the Bart Richards Award for Media Criticism from Penn State University.Updated with new material covering the ways journalists can leverage technology to their advantage, especially given the shifting revenue architecture of news—and with the future of news, facts, and democracy never more in question—this fourth edition of The Elements of Journalism is the authoritative guide for journalists, students, and anyone hoping to stay informed in contentious times.

"The images Sacco draws are so powerful that they burn deep into your retina and reconfigure how you see the world... Journalism displays Sacco at the top of his game."—National Post (Toronto)Over the past decade, Joe Sacco has increasingly turned to short-form comics journalism to report from conflict zones around the world. Collected here for the first time, Sacco''s darkly funny, revealing reportage confirms his standing as one of the foremost war correspondents working today. Journalism takes readers from the smuggling tunnels of Gaza to war crimes trials in The Hague, from the lives of India''s "untouchables" to the ordeal of Saharan refugees washed up on the shores of Malta. And in pieces never published before in the United States, Sacco confronts the misery and absurdity of the war in Iraq, including the darkest chapter in recent American history—the torture of detainees.Vividly depicting Sacco''s own interactions with the people he meets, the stories in this remarkable collection argue for the essential truth in comics reportage, an inevitably subjective journalistic endeavor. Among Sacco''s most mature and accomplished work, Journalism demonstrates the power of our premier cartoonist to chronicle lived experience with a force that often eludes other media.

Zprávy z Prahy 1953 (978-80-200-2568-5)
Kniha – autor Jiří Pernes, 412 stran, česky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná - autor Jiří Pernes, 412 stran, česky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná Rok 1953 byl pro komunistický režim v Československu přelomový. Smrt J. V. Stalina a vůdce československých komunistů K. Gottwalda v březnu toho roku otevřela cestu k řešení nahromaděných problémů především hospodářských a sociálních. Nové sovětské vedení opustilo linii otevřené konfrontace se západními demokraciemi, vyhlásilo program zvyšování životní úrovně svých občanů a k provádění stejné politiky tlačilo i východoevropské satelity. Rozsáhlá studie zabývající se vývojem v Československu uvádí edici dokumentů (v českém překladu) s hlášeními o situaci, která v roce 1953 do svých metropolí zasílali diplomaté z britské, sovětské a rakouské ambasády v Praze – tedy autentický pohled přímých svědků událostí.

The 1953 Essex Flood Disaster - Patricia Rennoldson Smith
On a stormy evening in January 1953, Peggy Morgan kissed her five-year-old son goodnight, blissfully unaware of the impending catastrophe. Before sunrise the next morning the North Sea had destroyed her home and Peggy was a childless widow. There had been no prediction, no warning. Men, women and children lost their lives in Essex on that fateful night and the lives of survivors were changed forever. The lucky ones awoke when ice-cold seawater burst through their doors and windows. Those not so lucky slept on towards death. This book captures, in the words of the survivors, the essence of life in the low-lying coastal areas before the disaster. Those who lived tell how, with dogged determination, they prevailed against unimaginable adversity: their stories of courage and fortitude are told simply and without self pity. And for the first time those who died have their story told. Illustrated with many previously unpublished photographs, the awe-inspiring and heartrending stories of survivors and victims of the 1953 Essex floods are told here for the first time.

Lev a jednorožec : Eseje I. (1928–1941) (9788025710906)
Elektronická kniha - autor George Orwell, 472 stran, česky Slavné eseje „Poprava oběšením“, „Jak jsem střílel slona“, „Uvnitř velryby“, „Lev a jednorožec“, či recenze na Obratník Raka Henryho Millera a Mein Kampf Adolfa Hitlera patří mezi 51 textů, které George Orwell napsal v letech 1928 až 1941.Ve svých publicistických dílech vystupoval nejen jako myslitel a homo politicus, ale především jako člověk vztahující se k druhým, „a fellow human being“; zabýval se sociálními, ekonomickými, a především obecně lidskými otázkami. Jeho eseje dodnes nabízejí příklad, jak lze k životu, myšlení i psaní přistupovat jednoduše a ryze, a staví na přesvědčení, že bez ohledu na ideologie je potřeba zůstat slušným a čestným člověkem. Plánovaný čtyřsvazkový projekt nakladatelství Argo, nazvaný Eseje I.–IV., bude obsahovat celkem 241 esejí, včetně Orwellových literárních recenzí a proslulých novinových sloupků...

PRAHA město evropské avantgardy 1895 - 1928 - Michel Bernard
Kniha emeritního profesora na pařížské Université I, kde založil a řídil Ústav studií soudobých dějin střední Evropy, je výsledkem jeho dlouholetého zájmu o českou kulturu v letech 1890 - 1928. Autor píše o Praze jako o jednom z center intelektuálního a uměleckého života Rakousko-Uherska. Připomíná specifickou pražskou atmosféru, v níž se mísí český, německý a židovský živel. Na základě historické analýzy člověka a jeho díla předkládá Bernard Michel také novou interpretaci díla Franze Kafky. Na jeho příkladu stejně jako na příkladu dalších předních tvůrců (R. M. Rilke, M. Brod, G. Meyrink, J. Hašek, K. Čapek, J. Kotěra, F. Bílek, A. Mucha,E. Filla a B. Kubišta) dokládá, že v pražské společnosti byla zastoupena intelektuální elita všech tehdejších evropských uměleckých avantgardních stylů.Vydání knihy podpořilo hlavní město Praha.Vydání knihy podpořil Centre National du Livre.

Deník fotografa 1928-1954 - Josef Moucha, Josef Jindřich Šechtl
Deník fotografa 1928-1954 oslovuje impulsivností vidění Josefa Jindřicha Šechtla (1877-1954). Uspokojit očekávání technicky a kompozičně precizním snímkem autorovi nestačilo. Zajímalo ho nekonvenční komentování doby. Projevuje se volbou motivů i letmým podáním záběrů. Předností je subjektivita postřehů, prostupující soustavné proměňování osudu ve vědomí. Historiografie napojená na velká centra dlouho táborského tvůrce zanedbávala. Nicméně rod Šechtlů vytváří a šíří fotografické památky na život svůj i svých současníků pátou generací. Studie Josefa Mouchy vřazuje Josefa Jindřicha Šechtla do odpovídajících světových souvislostí. Kniha vznikla za podpory města Tábor a Jihočeského kraje. Je adresována všem lidem s citem pro minulost a zvláště zájemcům o fotografování - včetně těch, kteří zveřejňují dnešní obrazové památníky na vlnách nových médií. Mgr. Josef Moucha, 1956, Hradec Králové Fotograf, kritik a teoretik fotografie, autor a kurátor vystav vystudoval periodický tisk, televizní a filmovou žurnalistiku na Karlově univerzitě (1975-1980).

Together with its earlier, sibling volume, it completes the arc of a remarkable career. Shortly before his death in 2013, Seamus Heaney discussed with his publisher the prospect of a companion volume to his landmark New Selected Poems 1966-1987 aimed at presenting the second half of his career, 'from Seeing Things onwards', as he foresaw it.Although he was unable to complete a edition/selection, he left behind selections that have been followed here.

Amazing Grace - James Walvin
“A compelling story of a hymn rescued from the horror of slavery . . . in the author’s hands, 'Amazing Grace' lands firmly on the right side of history.â€-TLSJourney through the history of "Amazing Grace," one of the transatlantic world's most popular hymns and a powerful anthem for humanity.  Sung in moments of personal isolation or on state occasions watched by millions, "Amazing Grace" has become an unparalleled anthem for humankind. How did a simple Christian hymn, written in a remote English vicarage in 1772, come to hold such sway over millions in all corners of the modern world? With this short, engaging cultural history, James Walvin offers an explanation.  The greatest paradox is that the author of "Amazing Grace," John Newton, was a former Liverpool slave captain. Walvin follows the song across the Atlantic to track how it became part of the cause for abolition and galvanized decades of movements and trends in American history and popular culture. By the end of the twentieth century, "Amazing Grace" was performed in Soweto and Vanuatu, by political dissidents in China, and by Kikuyu women in Kenya. No other song has acquired such global resonance as "Amazing Grace," and its ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Příjemný děs a čirá zábava této hororové klasiky, kterou režíroval Andre de Toth a další role v ní hrají Phyllis Kirk, Carolyn Jones a Charles Bronson, vycházejí z hororu, který vznikl u Warner Bros. o dvacet let dříve: Tajemství muzea voskových figurín, v němž Lionel Atwill ztělesnil šílence posedlého voskem a Fay Wray jeho potenciální oběť. Tento film, režírovaný Michaelem Curtizem a natočený mrazivě působivou technikou raného dvojbarevného Technicoloru, a jeho strašidelný remake vám nabízejí báječnou dvojitou koupel v parafínové lázni hrůzy. Zlověstným způsobem, který ho korunoval na mistra filmové hrůzy, ztělesnil Vincent Price slavného sochaře voskových figurín, který se po útoku žháře, jenž zničil jeho životní dílo, propadá do hlubin šílenství.Bonusy: • Nepřetržitá premiéra • Tajemství muzea voskových figurín
