Slovanská knihovna 1924-2024 / The Slavonic Library, Prague 1924-2024 - Lukáš Babka
Slovanská knihovna v Praze byla založena roku 1924 ministerstvem zahraničních věcí. Měla vytvářet informační zázemí pro souběžně vznikající Slovanský ústav a současně shromažďovat a zpřístupňovat dokumenty pro podporu činnosti mnohonárodnostní uprchlické vlny z bývalého Ruského impéria, jejíž významná část nalezla útočiště v tehdejším Československu. Od roku 1958 je součástí dnešní Národní knihovny České republiky. Díky rozsahu a složení svého fondu je jedním z center slavistické vědní disciplíny, a to v mezinárodním měřítku. Kniha přináší podrobné zpracování dějin Slovanské knihovny v průběhu celého uplynulého století. Současně čtenáři představuje jednotlivé části knihovní sbírky, jejich budování a nejcennější dokumenty. Kromě standardních knižních, časopiseckých a novinových oddělení se zaměřuje i na sbírky historické, rukopisné a kartografické. Do samostatné kapitoly je vydělena tematika ruské, ukrajinské a běloruské emigrace po roce 1917, neboť pro studium tohoto tématu spravuje knihovna sbírku světového významu. Pozornost je věnována také speciálním sbírkám, kam se řadí kolekce listinných, obrazových, uměleckých, fotografických a notafilických materiálů. Popis poskytovaných služeb pak přináší praktické informace o fungováni knihovny, které uvítá každý zájemce o studium a využívání knihovních služeb. Kniha byla připravena ke stému výročí ustavení knihovny.

Škola uměleckých řemesel v Brně 1924-2024 / The School of Arts and Crafts in Brno 1924-2024 Jak se v Brně rodilo moderní umění a design, jaké byly metody uměleckoprůmyslového vzdělávání? Publikace zachycuje stoletý příběh jedné středoevropské školy, v níž se setkávaly lokální folklorní tradice s experimentální uměleckou avantgardou, poslušnost vůči politickému establishmentu s odvážným volnomyšlenkářstvím a tradiční řemeslná zručnost s novými médii.Představuje výsledek týmového výzkumu a přináší řadu původních textových studií i dosud neznámý obrazový materiál.Vychází česko-anglicky v rámci projektu NAKI III / Místa tvořivosti* / Uměleckoprůmyslové vzdělávání - konstrukce identit, záchrana minulosti a design budoucnosti.

Church Slavonic and the Romanian Speaking Lands I-III.: Origins, Blossom, Decline - Vladislav Knoll
Trojdílná monografie se zabývá ve slavistice málo zkoumaným tématem církevní slovanštiny na území dnešního Rumunska a Moldavska od středověku do počátku 19. století.

The Vedute of Prague - Roman Koucký
„Book „The Vedute of Prague“ describes the development of Prague cityscape in the period of last 5 centuries and emphasizes future possible scenarios how the city composition could be continuously developed in the 21st century,“ comments the content of the book Roman Koucký, the co-author of the book and the chief of the Metropolitan plan office, that prepares new urban plan of Prague, called Metropolitan plan.The overall visual composition of the city forms a significant part of its identity and the collective mental “city image”. The layered and diverse composition of the city “from medieval times up to now” is, as emphasized in the book’s first chapter, the reason for Prague’s inscription in the prestigious UNESCO Register of World Cultural Heritage. The second chapter describes how it is not only possible but indeed necessary to read the contemporary city/metropolis, and what to emphasis in supplementing its composition. The third chapter is a brief history of the formulation of Prague’s historic urban landscape, particularly in the turbulent 20th century, and an outline of a possible solution for its further development based on the Metropolitan Plan. It describes how it is possible to supplement the historically layered city with a contemporary cultural ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The Book of Prague - Ivana Myšková, Jan Zikmund
An ex-con on compassionate release revisits his old haunts, only to feel dispossessed by how much the city has changed...The son of political dissidents in Soviet-era Prague is condemned to a life of menial jobs, like working at a local abattoir, unable to imagine his prospects ever improving...A young shop assistant in a tourist-friendly antique shop imagines what Prague would now look like if Czechoslovakia had stood up to the Nazis...The stories collected in this anthology show Prague to be a city of myriad layers and multiple histories. Famous for its untouched, Gothic and Baroque architecture and its trapped-in-aspic charm, it is also a place that has lived through numerous traumas over the last century and learned to conceal its scars, perhaps a little too well. Just as its landmarks should be preserved, so should these hidden histories, and sometimes the best place to preserve them is in stories.Translated by Alž beta Belá nová , Geoffrey Chew, Melvyn Clarke, Graeme Dibble, Paul Kaye, Andrew Oakland, Justin Quinn, Julia and Peter Sherwood, Paul Wilson and Alex Zucker.Supported by the Czech Literary Centre and the Moravian Library.

The Lights of Prague - Nicole Jarvis
For readers of VE Schwab and The Witcher, science and magic clash in atmospheric gaslight-era Prague.In the quiet streets of Prague all manner of mysterious creatures lurk in the shadows. Unbeknownst to its citizens, their only hope against the tide of predators are the dauntless lamplighters – secret elite of monster hunters whose light staves off the darkness each night. Domek Myska leads a life teeming with fraught encounters with the worst kind of evil: pijavice, bloodthirsty and soulless vampiric creatures. Despite this, Domek finds solace in his moments spent in the company of his friend, the clever and beautiful Lady Ora Fischerová - a widow with secrets of her own. When Domek finds himself stalked by the spirit of the White Lady - a ghost who haunts the baroque halls of Prague castle – he stumbles across the sentient essence of a will-o’-the-wisp captured in a mysterious container. Now, as its bearer, Domek wields its power, but the wisp, known for leading travellers to their deaths, will not be so easily controlled. After discovering a conspiracy amongst the pijavice that could see them unleash terror on the daylight world, Domek finds himself in a race against those who aim ...

The Rise of Mass Parties, Liberal Italy, and the Fascist Dawn (1919–1924) - Goffredo Adinolfi
Through an in-depth study of the electoral process, the aim of this Element is to analyse the political transformations that occurred in Italy from 1919 to 1924. After the takeover of the low chamber by the mass integration parties in 1919 - Popular and Socialist - concerns grew within the liberal camp. The argument of this Element is that the conservatives failed to adapt and remain competitive in a system characterised by universal suffrage, thereby paving the way for the rise of the fascists. The electoral path to power begins with the political elections of 1921, continues through the renewal of the municipal councils in 1922–23, and concludes with the elections of 1924 when Mussolini managed to take control of the low chamber. The Duce assumed the role of head of the nation, presenting a list of candidates-the Listone-that included members of the Fascist Party and the former politica elite.

Pražské veduty 18. století / Prague Vedute of the 18th Century - Miroslava Přikrylová, Jiří Lukas
Pražské veduty provedené grafickými technikami podávají již více než pět set let průběžnou zprávu o vzhledu města, o jeho urbanistickém a architektonickém vývoji. Patří k základním pramenům práce historiků, uměnovědců a architektů. Jsou předmětem nejenom vědeckého zkoumání, ale i sběratelství a obdivu milovníků umění. Pokusy o jejich souborné zpracování probíhají již od konce 18. století. Míra zpracování souborů vedut z jednotlivých období je však rozdílná. Důvodem je téměř geometrickou řadou vzrůstající počet grafickými technikami vytvořených pohledů na město a jeho části v průběhu staletí a tím i narůstající obtíže spojené s jejich komplexním "podchycením" a zpracováním. Podrobný soupis pražských vedut ze 16. a 17. století, opřený o sbírkové fondy Muzea hl. m. Prahy, Archivu hl. m. Prahy, ale i Národního muzea v Praze, Národní galerie a Královské kanonie premonstrátů na Strahově (část byla ještě tehdy umístěna v Památníku národního písemnictví) vyšel v roce 2002. Předkládaný soupis na něj v mnohém navazuje a představuje odborné veřejnosti, ale i zájemcům o historii grafické pohledy na město z 18. století. Jeho složení je však poněkud jiné, což je dáno postupnou proměnou pojetí městské veduty v průběhu tohoto století. Publikace je věnována pohledům na Prahu a její jednotlivé části.

Years after she ran away from her overbearing father, she has been forced back home to walk in his footsteps, teaching at the college he dominated and living in the fabulous home where he entertained artists and scholars for decades—and perhaps she owns it now, because her mercurial mother has disappeared. At the center of everything—the whispers, the rumors, the secrets—is her father’s library of rare books, which she had been forbidden to touch while he was alive to stop her.Everyone in town is watching Estella, with her dead father’s name on their lips, and no one seems to care about her missing mother. Who were her parents, really, and is the answer hidden somewhere in the depths of Rockfall House? And who will Estella be, if she gathers enough courage to find that answer? What she will discover is that no one can escape the secrets hidden in this dark library. Suspenseful and unsettling but ultimately triumphant, The Dark Library by acclaimed author Mary Anna Evans is a compelling tale of mystery, family secrets, and the quest ...

The Total Library - Jorge Luis Borges
Though best known in the English speaking world for his short fictions and poems, Borges is revered in Latin America equally as an immensely prolific and beguiling writer of non-fiction prose. In THE TOTAL LIBRARY, more than 150 of Borges'' most brilliant pieces are brought together for the first time in one volume - all in superb new translations. More than a hundred of the pieces have never previously been published in English. THE TOTAL LIBRARY presents Borges at once as a deceptively self-effacing guide to the universe and as the inventor of a universe that is an indispensible guide to Borges

Slovanská knihovna - můj osud - Jiří Vacek
Knížku lze charakterizovat jednou větou: Netradičně pojaté memoáry, které si přečtete se skutečným potěšením. Knihovník, slavista a literární historik, mezinárodně respektovaný odborník specializující se na problematiku ruské, ukrajinské a běloruské emigrace Jiří Vacek se na stránkách těchto pamětí ukázal jako talentovaný vypravěč. Proud vzpomínek zahrnuje především více než půlstoletí jeho práce ve Slovanské knihovně (dnes odboru Národní knihovny České republiky), jedné z nejvýznamnějších světových slavistických knihoven, kde působí od roku 1964. Autor připomíná nejen důležité události z dějin „Slovanky“, ale představuje i širokou plejádu osob (pracovníků knihovny i odborných badatelů-slavistů z celého světa), kteří s ní přišli od jejího založení v roce 1924 do kontaktu. Téměř románové příběhy – ať už tragické, nebo humorné – tvoří umně poskládanou mozaiku, která vás při četbě okouzlí svou barvitostí a člověčenstvím.

The Complete Novels of Jane Austen (Wordsworth Library Collection) - Jane Austenová
Jane Austen is without question, one of England’s most enduring and skilled novelists. With her wit, social precision, and unerring ability to create some of literature’s most charismatic and believable heroines, she mesmerises her readers as much today as when her novels were first published. Whether it is her sharp, ironic gaze at the Gothic genre invoked by the adventures of Catherine Morland inNorthanger Abbey; the diffident and much put-upon Fanny Price struggling to cope with her emotions in Mansfield Park; her delightfully paced comedy of manners and the machinations of the sisters Elinor and Marianne in Sense and Sensibility; the quiet strength of Anne Elliot in Persuasion succeeding in a world designed to subjugate her very existence; Emma – ‘a heroine whom no one but myself will like’ teased Austen – yet another irresistible character on fire with imagination and foresight; or the efforts of Mrs Bennet in trying to find a good match for each of her five daughters in Pride and Prejudice.Jane Austen is as sure-footed in her steps through society’s whirlpools of convention and prosaic mores as she is in her sometimes restrained but ever precise and enduring prose.
