Verejné pôsobenie JOHANKY Z ARKU netrvalo dlho. Od jej prvého vystúpenia pred kráľom Karolom VII. v Chinone vo februári 1429 až po upálenie na hranici v Rouene 30. mája 1431 uplynuli iba dva roky. Ako je teda možné, že sa Panna orleánska za taký krátky čas nezmazateľne zapísala do dejín? Spoznajte detailnejšie príbeh Johanky z Arku formou komiksu. Jej odhodlanie je určite inšpiratívne aj dnes. Dodnes ju považujeme za jednu z najzaujímavejších osobností európskeho stredoveku. Bola to ona, kto zvrátil priebeh storočnej vojny a začal postupné znovudobývanie Francúzska. Podarilo sa jej prelomiť anglické obliehanie mesta Orléans a presvedčiť Karola VII. o potrebe jeho pomazania v Remeši, ktorým posilnil svoju legitimitu ako kráľa Francúzska. Práve táto udalosť bola jedným z hlavných argumentov počas rehabilitačného procesu v roku 1456, na základe ktorého sa Johanka stala jednou z ikon (nielen) francúzskych dejín. Jej mimoriadna cesta neprestáva prekvapovať. Ako sa mohla prostá vidiecka dievčina dostať až ku kráľovi? Ako mohla žena zohrať takú významnú vojenskú úlohu? Jej viera a osobnosť poháňali veliteľov vojsk i radových vojakov k víťazstvu. Pre jedných bola Johanka prorokyňa, ale pre druhých čarodejnica. Rozprávať príbeh Johanky z Arku formou komiksu je problematické v mnohých ohľadoch, pretože Panna orleánska zostáva záhadou aj pre odborníkov. Množstvo príbehov z jej života však neprestáva fascinovať. Dialógy sú písané moderným jazykom. Niektoré sú vymyslené, ale kde to bolo možné, vychádzajú z rozprávania kronikárov a stredovekých archívov. Poznanie životov velikánov svetových dejín je pre nás cenné najmä tým, že nám otvára cestu k pochopeniu doby, v ktorej žili. Akí však boli naozaj a ako a prečo vstúpili do dejín? Pri práci na tejto knižke sa výtvarníci a tvorcovia komiksov spojili s profesionálnymi historikmi, aby spoločne predstavili životné osudy osobností, ktorých odkaz je živý dodnes

Podarilo sa jej prelomiť anglické obliehanie mesta Orléans a presvedčiť Karola VII. o potrebe jeho pomazania v Remeši, ktorým posilnil svoju legitimitu ako kráľa Francúzska. Práve táto udalosť bola jedným z hlavných argumentov počas rehabilitačného procesu v roku 1456, na základe ktorého sa Johanka...

Johan Cruyff byl jedním z největších hráčů fotbalové historie. Stal se synonymem totálního fotbalu a jeho filozofie fotbalu legendou.V autobiografii Moje filozofie fotbalu Cruyff vypráví příběh svého života od fotbalu na ulici po příchod do Ajaxu v deseti letech přes tři vítězství v Poháru mistrů evropských zemí až po přestup do Barcelony v roce 1973 za rekordní sumu. Poté přišlo vítězství v La Lize hned v první sezoně a Zlatý míč pro nejlepšího evropského hráče. Celkově získal Cruyff toto ocenění třikrát a přivedl nizozemskou fotbalovou reprezentaci do finále mistrovství světa v roce 1974.Po ukončení kariéry v roce 1984 se stal mimořádně úspěšným trenérem Ajaxu a poté Barcelony, kterou dovedl k prvnímu titulu v Lize mistrů v klubové historii. V roce 1999 byl Cruyff vyhlášen nejlepším evropským fotbalistou století a druhým nejlepším fotbalistou světa hned po Pelém. Později založil Cruyffovu nadaci, jejímž smyslem bylo poskytnout dětem možnost sportovat. Zatímco na hřišti či na lavičce měl Cruyff všechno z velké části pod kontrolou, život mimo fotbal byl výrazně bouřlivější – nevyhnul se bankrotu či pokusu o únos. O tom všem hovoří Johan Cruyff v této knize se svým typickým humorem a upřímností.Cruyffova smrt v březnu roku 2016 zarmoutila celý fotbalový svět a vyvolala nevídaný výbuch emocí. Johan Cruyff byl brilantní učitel a výřečný analytik fotbalu, který tolik miloval a trvale ovlivnil. Tato kniha je svědectvím jeho úžasného dědictví.

Kniha klasika holandskej literárnej moderny Frederika van Eedena (1860-1932) Malý Johannes je filozofickou rozprávkou pre dospelých. Dej sa odohráva v Holandsku približne v čase, keď žil autor; malý chlapec Johannes odchádza z domu, aby žil v prírode so zvieratami a mýtickými postavami. Tento chlapčenský sen sa mu však postupom času začne meniť na nočnú moru. Jediný možný spôsob, ako jej uniknúť, je vrátiť sa k "princípu reality" - a dospieť. Eedenom jednoducho vyrozprávaný príbeh chlapca, ktorý sa zmenší a načas splynie s prírodou, je iniciačnou prózou a zároveň veľkou dobovou polemikou o vzťahu človeka a prírody v časoch postromantizmu a druhej priemyselnej revolúcie. Hľadanie pravdy, krásy a šťastia ako základné smerovanie ľudského života je tu vsadené do rámca životných filozofií, umeleckých a prírodovedeckých názorov belle epoque a presvitá z neho silná tendencia k symbolizmu. Filozofický antimaterializmus, antinaturalizmus a idealizmus viedol autora k vysoko imaginatívnemu a v zásade symbolickému chápaniu prírody a vzťahu človeka k nej. V próze sa objavujú náznaky secesného vnímania sveta, prírody a kultúry, jej jazyk je prostý vo svojej pomenúvacej priamosti, avšak bohatý na výrazové prvky. Próza Malý Johannes patrí k základnému kánonu moderného holandského písomníctva.

Like so many, motivated by a quest for a ‘Higher Reality’, Johannes makes his way to India, the Motherload of spirituality. The introduction entitled ‘Getting there’, gives a brief, graphic description of his journey northwards, skilfully sketching out some key aspects of Indian life: colour, ancient tradition, poverty, diversity and humanity. Inspired by a long-term interest in Tibetan Buddhism, he makes his way to Kashmir, having booked a flight to Ladak. Deep snow scuppers the trip, and he encounters an unsuspected and hidden vein of Muslim spirituality, Sufism. Most of the book is then taken up with Johannes’ diary which details, daily life, friendships, stunning descriptions of his environment, but above all, the teachings of the Sufi Master Amin. Leader of the Chistya Sufis, he was an independent, tolerant, and free-thinking individual, with far reaching interests and profound spiritual insights. ‘It was his face that was truly striking. His head seemed massive, twice normal size. The enormous domed forehead, criss-crossed by wrinkles, the long aquiline nose and the piercing dark eyes spoke of granite will and power.’Caught between unconditional acceptance of the teachings, and resistance, due to nurture and inclination, the book makes interesting reading. Keys are given for a much wider and deeper understanding of Islam, and levels of ‘being’ indicated, were descriptions marking the definitions of a ‘Religion’ are meaningless. ‘Religion is like a boat, a ship into which man is born. It carries him over the ocean of life. Eventually the ship reaches the other shore; here he must abandon it and step on to the firm land. Unfortunately, people continue to carry their ‘boat’; jumping ashore they hoist it on to their shoulders and march on. They exclaim to one another, “Are you carrying a boat? Are you carrying a boat?” In reality, once land is reached, one has to leave the boat and step ashore. A seeker after the truth uses religion and then transcends it. Truth does not require a vessel.’Johannes takes part in a pilgrimage to Ajmer Sharif in Rajasthan, which opens up an aspect of devotional life, now almost vanished from contemporary culture. The final section, ‘Departure’, describes Johannes’ trip homewards. He embeds himself in the strange twilit world of ‘travelers’ and encounters various curios individuals including a magician. Johannes is hosted by a family in Srinagar and forms a deep friendship with one of the sons
