Under cloudless blue skies, the Oakwood Cemetery Annex in Montgomery, Alabama hosts the largest Commonwealth War Graves Commission cemetery in the United States. Most of the graves contain young RAF trainee pilots killed during their flying training at nearby Maxwell and Gunter airfields during the Second World War. However, there is another grave, located at the edge of the plot, not from the early 1940s but, from 1954\. The grave marks the final resting place of a 44-year-old senior RAF officer, Air Commodore Geoffrey Stephenson CBE. It begs the questions who was he and why is he buried there?This book sets out to answer both these questions. As a result, this is the remarkable story of not only Stephenson’s life but the people, planes and places that would leave an indelible mark on a seasoned fighter pilot. After growing up in Lincolnshire and Ireland, 18-year-old Stephenson joined the RAF in 1928 alongside Douglas Bader who would become a life-long friend. After leaving Cranwell, the pair both joined 23 Squadron. In the 1930s, Stephenson rose through the ranks to command 19 Squadron, a Duxford-based Spitfire unit, that would see his baptism of fire over Dunkirk in late May 1940\. Following the ...

George Stephenson is the ultimate selfmade man: born in the pit village of Wylam, near Newcastle, and skipping any education to start work, his inventions would change the very nature of the world.From the moment he began work in the pit at the tender age of ten, he showed a natural talent for mending and inventing machines, slowly rising to become the colliery’s resident engineer. However, he struggled to break through the class prejudices of the time; indeed, Sir Humphrey Davy, later President of the Royal Society, considered Stephenson (then an unknown pitman) ‘a thief and not a clever thief’. This early battle was only one of many that Stephenson waged against the establishment.Even so, Stephenson went on to build the world’s first public railways, the Stockton and Darlington in 1825 and the Liverpool–Manchester in 1830. Much is known of these achievements and of his famous creation, Rocket, yet little is known of the man himself. In George Stephenson a colourful portrait is painted of the self-taught and often testy Geordie, whose Victorian invention is now the backbone of every nation on the planet.

Kniha amerického transpersonálního psychologa se zabývá zásadním obratem v životě každého muže - a sice jeho přechodem z dětství do dospělosti. Toto vývojové období se podle nejnovějších výzkumů ukazuje být stejně klíčové pro další rozvoj zdravého duševního růstu jako rané a pozdější dětství. Integrální součástí dospívání mladých mužů byly proto ve většině tradičních kultur různé přechodové rituály a iniciace. Autor otevírá svou strhující knihu popisem situace městské rizikové mládeže v USA a zamýšlí se nad příčinami i formami vzdoru a nepřizpůsobivosti dospívajících chlapců. Ukazuje na spojitosti mezi absencí tradičních přechodových rituálů a rizikovým či delikventním jednáním mladistvých. Objasňuje, do jaké míry naše společnost sebe samu i své děti ochuzuje tím, že je připravuje o možnost ritualizovaného přechodu do dospělosti. V dalších kapitolách pak autor rekonstruuje přechodové rituály a obřady mužské dospělosti tak, aby odpovídaly naší moderní době. Stephenson se inspiruje různými domorodými tradicemi a snaží se tyto v dnešní (post)moderní společnosti chybějící rituály kompenzovat specifickými technikami, které kromě vyprávění příběhů a rozmanitých uměleckých technik zahrnují také například indiánskou saunu, hledání vize, různé způsoby modlitby, práce s živly a další.

By the end of John Cecil Stephenson’s art school training – first a scholarship to Leeds Art School then to The Royal College of Art – he was in a position to produce still lives, landscapes and portraits in a professional capacity. Like many painters of his generation, who had received similarly conventional instruction, he became a competent teacher, appointed in 1922, as Head of Art at The Northern Polytechnic. In this mould Stephenson might have remained a largely undistinguished painter – but in the early 1930s he found himself at the centre of a group of artists with avant-garde credentials, and his own art underwent a remarkable transformation.  By 1934 he was exhibiting groundbreaking works such as Mask (CAT. 7), at the 7 & 5 Society, and in 1937 was a key contributor to the watershed publication and exhibition Circle, where his work was showcased alongside that of luminaries such as Kazimir Malevich, Le Corbusier, Fernand Léger, Alberto Giacometti and Pablo Picasso. What led Stephenson to become, in the words of the celebrated art critic Herbert Read, ‘one of the earliest artists in the country to develop a completely abstract style’?  Between March 1919 and November 1965, ...

A provocative argument for a new way of seeing Israel, Zionism, and the two-state solution.Haifa Republic: A Democratic Future for Israel is an urgent wake-up call. The philosopher Omri Boehm argues that it is long past time to recognize that there will not be a two-state solution to the conflict between Israel and the Palestinian people. After fifty years, Israel’s occupation of the West Bank constitutes annexation in all but name, even as the legitimate claims of the Arab population, soon to be a national majority, remain unaddressed. Meanwhile, daily life goes on under conditions rightly likened to apartheid. For liberals in Israel and America to continue to place their hopes in a two-state solution is a form of willful and culpable blindness, especially now that Israeli leaders across the political spectrum have begun to speak of ethnic cleansing. A catastrophe is in the making.But Haifa Republic also offers grounds for hope. Catastrophe can be averted, Boehm contends, by reconfiguring Israel as a single binational state in which Palestinians and Jews both possess human rights and equal citizenship. The original Zionists—Theodor Herzl, Ze’ev Jabotinsky, and, early in his career, David Ben-Gurion—all advocated such a federation, and as prime minister, Menachem ...

Pervasive and ubiquitous, machine translation systems have been transforming communication and understanding across languages and cultures on a historical scale. Focused on both Neural Machine Translation tools, such as Google Translate, and generative AI tools, such as ChatGPT, Omri Asscher pursues the juncture between machine translation and the diverse, often competing, frameworks of human translation theory. He shines a light on the subtleties of the intersection between the two: the places where machine translation corresponds well with the ideas that have been developed on human translation throughout the years, and the places where machine translation seems to challenge translation theory, and perhaps even require that we rethink some of its basic assumptions.Machine Translation and Translation Theory reflects the need for an accessible, panoramic view on the subject. It offers a detailed discussion of various points of theoretical interest: definitions of translation; equivalence in translation; aesthetics of translation; translation ethics; translation as cross-cultural communication; and translation as a historical agent.This is key reading for researchers and students in translation studies, as well as scholars of AI-mediated communication, and computer scientists interested in how machine translation architectures correspond with the understanding of translation in the humanities.

Druhý díl trilogie BAROKNÍ CYKLUS, se otevírá v roce 1689 a zastihuje oba své hlavní protagonisty, Elizu, bývalou odalisku ze sultánova paláce, nyní hraběnku z Qwghlmu, a dobrodruha Jacka Shaftoea, krále vagabundů, v zoufalé situaci a zcela bez prostředků. Elizu připravil o jmění získané obchodem korzár Jean Bart a intriky francouzského dvora, Jack se vlastní zásluhou ocitl jako veslařský otrok na Berberském pobřeží. Ale zoufalství plodí zoufalé a smělé nápady, a tak se oba nezávisle na sobě vrhají do nových plánů, jejichž výsledky a zisky jsou značně nejisté. Neal Stephenson zručně splétá dvě vlákna rozmáchlého příběhu, která se na pozadí historických událostí, jež pomáhaly formovat náš nový věk, letmo dotýkají a zase rozcházejí. Současně s tím se odvíjí spor Newtona a Leibnitze, jeden z největších konfliktů v dějinách vědy.

Churavějící královna Anna, poslední Stuartovna, leží na smrtelné posteli a její následnictví zdaleka není jasné, politické a náboženské spory nadále doutnají, vliv Královské společnosti upadá, protože Isaac Newton zabředá čím dál hlouběji do alchymie, hnán touhou po záhadném Šalamounově zlatě, novou anglickou měnu ohrožuje penězokaz Jack Razič, nechvalně známý Jack Shaftoe, král vagabundů, a z druhé strany Kanálu to vše potutelně sleduje snad nesmrtelný Král Slunce. Daniel by nejraději byl jen pozorovatelem dění, ale pekelné stroje a další úklady, které mu někdo staví do cesty, jej nutí ponořit se do křivolakých londýnských uliček, aby rozpletl nitky a zjistil, kdo za tím vším stojí.

Melisanda Stokesová je odbornice na starověké jazyky. Když se na chodbě univerzity náhodou sejde s Tristanem Lyonsem, jenž se zabývá vojenskou rozvědkou, netuší, že se ocitla na prahu událostí, které naruby obrátí nejen její život, ale i lidské dějiny. Mladík jí totiž navrhne cosi neuvěřitelného: aby mu pomocí překladů pečlivě tajených dávných dokumentů pomohla dokázat, že magie kdysi existovala a byla provozována. Až příchod osvícenství a moderní vědy ji oslabil a nakonec zcela zničil. Magie podle pramenů zmizela v roce 1851 – a Tristan je odhodlán nejen přijít na to, proč se tak stalo, ale pokud možno také magii vzkřísit z mrtvých a využít ji k rozvědným a vojenským účelům. Tak vznikne D.O.D.O. – Detašované oddělení diachronních operací, které přijde na jeden velmi nadějný, ale také velmi znepokojující způsob využití magie, jenž může lidstvu přinést mnoho užitku, ale i mnoho škody. Román, do kterého Neal Stephenson vnesl nápaditost, intelekt a sofistikovanost a Nicole Gallandová lidskou vřelost, humor a vypravěčské nadání, oživí nejen magii, ale taky vaši víru v nemožné, která byla odjakživa na sci-fi a fantastice tím největším lákadlem.

Rituál nemůžeme opominout v úvahách o počátcích lidské kultury ani o jejím následném vývoji. Rituál je součástí toho, co znamená být člověkem. Stejně jako vyprávění, sport či hudba, i rituál definuje a obohacuje kulturu. Přivádí účastníky rituálu do kontaktu se zdroji hodnot a významů, které je samé přesahují. Rituálu se nelze vyhnout, přesto je jeho místo v moderním životě velmi nejednoznačné. Co to je rituál? Jaké jsou druhy rituálů? Je rituál svázaný tradicí a konzervativní, nebo je inovativní a transformativní? Kniha Stručný úvod do teorie rituálu popisuje řadu konkrétních rituálů a zkoumá rituál z teoretického i historického hlediska. Zaměřuje se na okamžiky, kdy se rituál dotýká každodenního života: v souvislosti s politikou a mocí, s životními mezníky, s formováním skupin či identity. Ukazuje, jak je rituál významný pro vytváření a předávání přesvědčení a hodnot; předvádí však také, jak může být využívám k vykořisťování a útlaku. Rituál nemá pevně dané hranice, takže se musíme vždy znovu ptát, jaké chování a proč budeme za rituál považovat. Moderní rituální studia jsou širokým oborem, kterým se vás Barry Stephenson pokusí provést s lehkostí a nadhledem.

The period from the accession of Diocletian to the Islamic conquest was a tumultuous one: a period of catastrophic defeat (Adrianople and the fall of the Empire in the West), as well as a brilliant success (the Justinian reconquest and the final defeat of Sassanid Persia). The period is well studied in political and historian terms; however, the Imperial Roman Army, particularly its appearance and equipment, remains a neglected topic. As a result a number of misconceptions have arisen. This authoritative follow-up to the author''s successful "Roman Infantry Equipment: The Later Empire" not only corrects these misconceptions, it also provides a comprehensive survey of the military material of the period. The equipment, both offensive and defensive, is considered not simply as artefacts in isolation, but rather as pieces of a whole. Form is considered in conjunction with the reasons being the development and adoption, as well as the usage, of the equipment. Finally, the book addresses the vexed question of what exactly was a shieldwall and how did it function, particularly in relation to enemy cavalry.

Craig E. Stephenson’s Ages of Anxiety examines how W. H. Auden in his Pulitzer Prize winning poem, The Age of Anxiety, used C. G. Jung’s psychological types to structure and explore his responses to war and the rise of fascism.This newly revised edition of Stephenson’s 2015 Zürich Lecture Series tracks Auden’s notion of the poet’s responsibilities and of the importance of the symbolic life in a time of conflict. The book tracks how Auden’s poem inspired Leonard Bernstein’s second symphony and how three choreographers (Jerome Robbins, John Neumeier, Liam Scarlett) created dances set to this work, with Jung’s psychology running through all these creative extrapolations like a common thread. In this expanded edition, Stephenson considers how the contemporary essayists Scott Stossel and Roberto Calasso employ Auden’s poem as touchstones for their own explorations of the meaning of anxiety in our time.Ages of Anxiety will be of interest to analytical psychologists, literary historians, performing arts historians, mental health practitioners, as well as the common reader.
