Storm of Steel - Ernst Jünger

Presenting the desperate conflict of the First World War through the eyes of an ordinary German soldier, Ernst Jünger''s Storm of Steel is translated by Michael Hofmann in Penguin Modern Classics.''As though walking through a deep dream, I saw steel helmets approaching through the craters. They seemed to sprout from the fire-harrowed soil like some iron harvest.''A memoir of astonishing power, savagery and ashen lyricism, Storm of Steel depicts Ernst Jünger''s experience of combat on the front line - leading raiding parties, defending trenches against murderous British incursions, and simply enduring as shells tore his comrades apart. One of the greatest books to emerge from the catastrophe of the First World War, it illuminates like no other book not only the horrors but also the fascination of a war that made men keep fighting for four long years.Ernst Jünger (1895-1998) the son of a wealthy chemist, ran away from home to join the Foreign Legion. His father dragged him back, but he returned to military service when he joined the German army on the outbreak of the First World War. Storm of Steel (Stahlgewittern) was Jünger''s first book, published in 1920. Greatly admired by the Nazis, Jünger remained at a ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Návštěva na Godenholmu - Ernst Jünger

Mistrovské vizionářské dílo Ernsta Jüngera odehrávající se na odlehlém skandinávském ostrově patří mezi neprávem opomíjené skvosty německé literatury poloviny minulého století. Tato novela, rozsahem nevelká, myšlenkově však nesmírně bohatá, plná znepokojivých obrazů a apokalyptické imaginace, je další ukázkou autorova hutného vybroušeného stylu, jeho schopnosti vnímat vnitřní předivo věcí a jejich skrytých souvislostí i líčení přírodních krás. Je typovou studií válkou sežehnutých duší, částečně autobiografickou, vyprávěním o hledání zasvěcení a nového začátku, příběhem o utrpení a znovuzrození. Ernst Jünger (1895-1998) je českým čtenářům znám svou slavnou novelou Na mramorových útesech, filozoficko-politickou esejí Chůze lesem, nedávno vydaným Válečným deníkem a knihou V bouřích ocele. Návštěva na Godenholmu se z této slavné řady poněkud vymyká. Poprvé vyšla v roce 1952 a poté v němčině již jen jednou jako součást sebraných spisů. Kniha byla současníky nepochopena a v podstatě zapomenuta. Anglicky vyšla teprve před několika lety, což naznačuje vzrůstající zájem o tento ztracený klenot, vysoce ceněný svého času například Gottfriedem Bennem. K tomu, že dílo úplně nezapadlo, paradoxně přispělo rozvíjející se studium psychedelických látek a skutečnost, že objevitel LSD a spisovatelův přítel Albert Hofmann z něj obšírně cituje ve své knize LSD, mé nezvedené dítě - Jüngerovi zde věnuje celou jednu kapitolu.

Dělník - Hegemonie a figura - Ernst Jünger

Svou studii Dělník. Hegemonie a figura vydal Ernst Jünger roku 1932. Patří k jeho zásadním esejistickým textům a odráží se v ní jeho dějinně filozofické a politické smýšlení, které se u něj vyvíjelo v reakci na zážitky první světové války a na poválečný společenský kontext nejenom v Německu. Dělník je v Jüngerově podání oproštěn od svých tradičních socioekonomických vztahů a vystupuje ve své dehistorizované roli jako nezávisle působící veličina, která utváří novou skutečnost. Jeho nárok na hegemonii nad společností, hospodářstvím a státem spočívá podle Jüngera v jeho přirozeném vztahu k moci. Mezi další témata, kterými se zde autor zaobírá, patří práce jako způsob života, nebo technika jako způsob, kterým figura dělníka mobilizuje svět.

Ernst Jünger - Heimo Schwilk

Proslavil se svou statečností během první světové války. Napsal jednu z největších válečných knih všech dob. Byl zapáleným nacionalistou a antidemokratem, přesto se účastnil odboje proti Adolfu Hitlerovi. Nakonec se stal evropským klasikem: Ernst Jünger, který zemřel v roce 1998 ve věku 102 let, ztělesňuje německé století jako nikdo jiný. Heimo Schwilk, který spisovatele osobně znal, získal exkluzivní přístup k Jüngerově literární pozůstalosti, a tak mohl vykreslit jedinečný portrét tohoto fascinujícího a rozporuplného muže. Jeho obsáhlý životopis nic nezastírá ani neomlouvá, naopak objasňuje Jüngerovu životní cestu. Heimo Schwilk, narozený ve Stuttgartu v roce 1952, je autorem mnoha knih o politice a literatuře. Jeho obsáhlé životopisy o Ernstu Jüngerovi a Hermannu Hessovi jsou vysoce ceněny doma i v zahraničí. Jeho poslední knihy: Rilke a ženy (2015), Luther. Boží hněv (2017), Mé dobrodružné srdce (2021). V CDK vyšla jeho kniha Hermann Hesse. Život hráče se skleněnými perlami (2022), která byla čtenáři i recenzenty příznivě přijata.

Max Ernst - Ulrich Bischoff

With unparalleled artistic originality Max Ernst (1891–1976) transformed everything he touched. By pushing the boundaries and breaking loose from the confined view of the culture of his time, he became one of the most important figures of Dadaism and Surrealism. Driven by the counter-reaction to the horrors of World War I, he became a pioneer of the Dada movement.The closing of the famed Dada exhibit in Cologne for ‘obscenity’ led Ernst to spend the rest of his life in Paris, where he came in contact with the Surrealists. Above all, Ernst stands out for his varied style and technique, having produced an oeuvre that reaches from paintings, drawings, and sculpture, across texts and stage settings to collage novels and the development of his own ‘frottage’ technique. During World War II, Ernst, like many of his colleagues, became an ‘undesirable foreigner’ and was forced to emigrate; however, he returned to France after the war.Continuing a career that spanned decades, in 1954 he received the Grand Prize for Painting at the Biennial in Venice. This book is a journey through magic, vividness, and fantasy. It is a gateway into the intricate mind and world of Max Ernst.

Castles Of Steel - Robert K. Massie

In August 1914 the two greatest navies in the world confronted each other across the North Sea. At first there were skirmishes, then battles off the coasts of England and Germany and in the far corners of the world, including the Falklands. The British attempted to force the Dardanelles with battleships - which led to the Gallipoli catastrophe. As the stalemate on the ground on the Western Front continued, the German Navy released a last strike against the British ''ring of steel''. The result was Jutland, a titanic and brutal battle between dreadnoughts. The knowledge, understanding and literary power Robert K. Massie brings to this story is unparalleled. There will never again be a war like this in which seagoing monsters hurl shells at each other until one side is destroyed. The story is driven by some of the most dramatically intriguing personalities in history: Churchill and Jacky Fisher, Jellicoe and Beatty. And then there were the powerful Germans - von Pohl, Scheer, Hipper, and the grand old fork-bearded genius Tirpitz. Castles of Steel is a book about leadership and command, bravery and timidity, genius and folly, qualities which are of course displayed magnificently by Robert K. Massie''s literary mastery.

In France under the last Bourbon king, the extravagance grows more outrageous and the unrest of the poor more dangerous. Into this ferment are swept the innocent English Sophie Luttrell, visiting France for the first time; the French aristocrat Héloise de Guinot, who hates the man her parents have arranged for her to marry; and Marie-Victoire, the loyal maid who finds herself immersed in revolutionary politics. They are the daughters of the storm which is sweeping over France - and over the world. Three women whose lives will be forever marked by this turning point in history and whose passionate struggle for love, liberty - and for life - will have unexpected consequences.

Tales of Hoffmann - Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann

E.T.A. Hoffman''s wildly original fictions are some of the most unusual examples of German Romanticism''s dark passions, and the stories in Tales of Hoffman are selected and translated from the German with an introduction by R.J. Hollingdale in Penguin Classics.This selection of Hoffmann''s finest short stories vividly demonstrates his intense imagination and preoccupation with the supernatural, placing him at the forefront of both surrealism and the modern horror genre. Suspense dominates tales such as Mademoiselle de Scudery, in which an apprentice goldsmith and a female novelist find themselves caught up in a series of jewel thefts and murders. In the sinister The Sandman, famously used by Sigmund Freud to illustrate both his concept of the unheimlich, or ''uncanny'', and of Oedipal guilt, a young man''s sanity is tormented by fears about a mysterious chemist; while in The Choosing of a Bride a greedy father preys on the weaknesses of his daughter''s suitors. Master of the bizarre, Hoffman creates a sinister and unsettling world combining love and madness, black humour and bewildering illusion.This edition contains authoritative translations of Hoffman''s best stories. In his introduction, R.J. Hollingdale explores the background of these works and examines the duality of Hoffman''s life - a ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The Structure of Science - Ernst Nagel

"Ernest Nagel''s work, The Structure of Science, has earned for itself the status of an outstanding standard work in its field. It offers an exceptionally thorough and comprehensive methodological and philosophical exploration encountered in those diverse fields. Nagel''s discussion is distinguished by the lucidity of its style, the incisiveness of its reasoning, and the solidity of its grounding in all the major branches of scientific inquiry. The Structure of Science has become a highly influential work that is widely invoked in the methodological and philosophical literature. Recent controversies between analytics and historic-sociological approaches to the philosophy of science have not diminished its significance; in fact, it seems to me that the pragmatist component in Nagel''s thinking may be helpful for efforts to develop a rapprochement between the contending schools." --Carl G.

The Caves of Steel - Isaac Asimov

Isaac Asimov's ROBOT series - from the iconic collection I, ROBOT to four classic novels - contains some of the most influential works in the history of science fiction. Establishing and testing the THREE LAWS OF ROBOTICS, they continue to shape the understanding and design of artificial intelligence to this day. In the vast, domed cities of Earth, artificial intelligence is strictly controlled; in the distant Outer Worlds, colonists and robots live side by side. A Spacer ambassador is found dead and detective Elijah Baley is assigned to find the killer. But with relations between the two cultures in the balance, the Spacers insist that he work with a partner of their choosing - a robot partner, R. Daneel Olivaw. Baley has never seen a robot like Daneel before - almost indistinguishable from a human - and soon, though the Three Laws of Robotics should render the crime impossible, Baley's partner becomes his prime suspect.
