Hero of our Time - Gerhard Symons, Olga Cermanová, Michail Jurjevič Lermontov
Speciální edice knihy "Hero of our Time" v anglickém jazyce pro středně pokročilé studenty. Kniha obsahuje 15 ilustrací v černo-bílém provedení a anglicko-český slovník. Příběh "Hero of our Time" napsal v devatenáctém století spisovatel Michail Lermontov. Originální text byl přepracován rodilým mluvčím angličtiny a doplněn 15 ilustracemi, které vytvořily české ilustrátorky. Naše speciální edice "Hero of our Time" byla v minulém roce testována studenty České republiky. Zpětná vazba od studentů byla pozitivní a velmi příznivě ovlivnila jejich angličtinu. Zkrátil Gerhard Symons. It is a time of war. A young army officer, Pechorin, has arrived in the Caucasus. Pechorin is a nobleman who is handsome, charming, and rich. He enjoys hunting wild pigs, 16-year-old Circassian princesses, and power. He is also selfish, violent, and rather bored with life. Whoever he meets is changed forever... You will follow him through five stories. You will read his private diary. You will penetrate the secrets of a human soul. And you will ask yourself, "who is Pechorin?” Tyto knihy jsou určeny především studentům se středně pokročilou znalostí jazyka (úroveň B1 až B2), ale i pokročilejším (úroveň C1 až C2), kteří se tam mohou zdokonalit v plynulém čtení anglických textů.

The Gospel of Ruth - Carolyn Custis James
God is counting on his daughters to build his kingdom.This isn’t the Ruth you thought you knew. Award-winning author, Carolyn Custis James has unearthed startling new insights from a well-worn story that have life-changing implications for us today.Through careful and dynamic biblical scholarship, rediscover the story of Ruth and its characters. Naomi is no longer regarded as a bitter, complaining woman, but as a courageous overcomer. Ruth, typically admired for her devotion to Naomi, is seen as a gutsy risk-taker and a powerful agent for change among God’s people. Boaz, the Kinsman Redeemer, is repeatedly caught off-guard by Ruth’s initiatives. His partnership with her models the kind of relationships that the gospel intends for all who follow Jesus.Carolyn Custis James drills down deeper into the story where she uncovers in the Old Testament the same passionate, counter-cultural, rule-breaking gospel that Jesus modeled and taught his followers to pursue. Within this age-old story is a map to radical levels of love and sacrifice.The Gospel of Ruth vests every woman’s life with kingdom purposes and frees us to embrace wholeheartedly God’s calling. This story of two women who have lost everything contains a profound message: God created women not to live in the shadowy margins of men or of the past, but to emerge as courageous activists for his kingdom.

Breaking Babe Ruth - Edmund F. Wehrle
Rather than as a Falstaffian figure of limited intellect, Edmund Wehrle reveals Babe Ruth as an ambitious, independent operator, one not afraid to challenge baseball’s draconian labor system. To the baseball establishment, Ruth’s immense popularity represented opportunity, but his rebelliousness and potential to overturn the status quo presented a threat. After a decades-long campaign waged by baseball to contain and discredit him, the Babe, frustrated and struggling with injuries and illness, grew more acquiescent, but the image of Ruth that baseball perpetuated still informs how many people remember Babe Ruth to this day. This new perspective, approaching Ruth more seriously and placing his life in fuller context, is long overdue.

Ruth Asawa and the Artist-Mother at Midcentury - Jordan Troeller
How a group of artist-mothers in postwar San Francisco refused the centuries-old belief that a woman could not make art while also raising children.For most of modern history, to be an artist and a mother was to embody a contradiction in terms. This “awful dichotomy,” as painter Alice Neel put it, pitted artmaking against caretaking and argued that the best art was made at the expense of family and futurity. But in San Francisco in the 1950s and 1960s, a group of artists gathered around Ruth Asawa (1926–2013) began to reject this dominant narrative. In Ruth Asawa and the Artist-Mother at Midcentury, Jordan Troeller analyzes this remarkable moment. Insisting that their labor as mothers fueled their labor as artists, these women redefined key aesthetic concerns of their era, including autonomy, medium specificity, and originality.Delving into the archive, where the traces of motherhood have not yet been erased from official history, Troeller reveals Ruth Asawa’s personal and professional dialogue with several other artist-mothers, including Merry Renk, Imogen Cunningham, and Sally Woodbridge. For these women, motherhood was not an essentialized identity, but rather a means to reimagine the terms of artmaking outside of the patriarchal policing of reproduction. This project unfolded in three broad areas, which also structure the book’s chapters: domesticity and decoration; metaphors for creativity; and maternal labor in the public sphere, especially in the public schools. Drawing on queer theory and feminist writings, Troeller argues that in belatedly accounting for the figure of the artist-mother, art history must reckon with an emergent paradigm of artmaking, one predicated on reciprocity, caretaking, and futurity.

Garlic And Sapphires - Ruth Reichl
"Genuinely touching, wonderfully revealing" NEW YORKERGarlic and Sapphires is Ruth Reichl''s riotous account of the many disguises she employs to dine undetected when she takes on the much coveted and highly prestigious job of New York Times restaurant critic.____________________________________________________Reichl knows that to be a good critic she has to be anonymous - but her picture is posted in every four-star, low-star kitchen in town and so she embarks on an extraordinary - and hilarious - undercover game of disguise - keeping even her husband and son in the dark. There is her stint as Molly, a frumpy blonde in an off-beige Armani suit that Ruth takes on when reviewing Le Cirque resulting in a double review of the restaurant: first she ate there as Molly; and then as she was coddled and pampered on her visit there as Ruth, New York Times food critic. Then there is the eccentric, mysterious red head on whom her husband - both disconcertingly and reassuringly - develops a terrible crush. She becomes Brenda the earth mother, Chloe the seductress and even Miriam her own (deceased) mother.What is even more remarkable about Reichl''s spy games is that as she takes on these various guises, she finds herself changed not just physically, but also in character revealing how one''s outer appearance can very much influence one''s inner character, expectations, and appetites.

Pravdivý život - Ruth Valeriová
Globalizace a konzumerismus ovlivňují každou oblast našeho života. Nejde jen o nakupování. Tyto mocné síly utvářejí i náš osobní život, ovlivňují, jak se k sobě navzájem chováme, jak se díváme na svět - a především mají zhoubný dopad na život chudých lidí a na zdravotní stav planety. Každý křesťan každé generace v dějinách si musel ujasnit, co v jeho kultuře obnáší pojem "služba" a následování Krista. Ruth Valeriová se nad těmito otázkami zamýšlí v důkladně propracované knize, která není jen pouhým popisem situace kolem nás, ale především návodem, jak bychom se měli zhostit svého křesťanského poslání. Kniha představuje úvahy o ekologických otázkách ve spojitosti s křesťanskou etikou. O autorce: Ruth Valeriová - Britská spisovatelka, akademická teoložka, ochránkyně životního prostředí, aktivistka, matka a pěstitelka zeleniny, která zároveň provozuje vepřín a fairtradový obchod s klenoty, považuje víru za podstatu svého života a usiluje o sociální spravedlnost, rovnost mezi lidmi a čistotu životního prostředí. Pracuje pro křesťanskou charitativní organizaci A Rocha UK (žije v Chichestru ve Velké Británii), jejímž cílem je ochrana a obnova přirozeného životního prostředí. Ochranu celé Boží země nepovažuje za dobrovolný přívažek ke křesťanskému životu, ale za jeho hlavní náplň. Studovala na Cambridgeské univerzitě a na Londýnské teologické škole, doktorát má z Kings College a nejvíce ji přitahuje učení Tomáše Akvinského. Často píše o spravedlnosti, životním prostředí a životním stylu.
