Synthetic Syntax, Meaning, and Philosophical Questions (978-80-280-0120-9)
Elektronická kniha - autor Paul Rastall, 189 stran, anglicky Kniha je souborem dvanácti původních kapitol, které se zabývají různými syntaktickými, sémantickými a filozofickými otázkami. Autor k těmto problémům přistupuje integrovaně či holisticky a své argumenty dokládá četnými příklady jazyků tak rozmanitých, jako je mimo jiné angličtina, ruština nebo malajština. Každá kapitola je samostatným textem, ale celý soubor je svázán zastřešujícím společným tématem, jednotnou teorií a metodologií. Klíčovým pojmem knihy je syntetická syntax, která představuje zásadní alternativu k většině současných syntaktických přístupů. Rastall prosazuje chápání jazyka jako prostředku, jímž lidé vyjadřují své zkušenosti. V jádru tohoto přístupu je vnitrojazyková a mezijazyková rozmanitost. Aspekty zkušenosti jsou zachyceny (nebo pojmenovány) základními jazykovými jednotkami, znaky (slovy i idiomy a rčeními), a tyto znaky jsou seskupeny tak, aby odrážely skutečné nebo vnímané vztahy...

Dobrá a poslušná: Inšpirované skutočným príbehom z prostredia slovenskej ženskej väznice (978-80-573-0120-2)
Kniha - autor Biba Bohinská, 280 stran, slovensky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá Najlepšia a najtvrdšia škola života. Izolovaná, odtrhnutá od blízkych. Sama v spoločnosti odsúdených. Vnútorne sama. Dostali sme sa na okraj spoločnosti, zruinovali sme vlastné životy. No získali sme čas. Čas na zmenu, na prejav ľudskosti, na spôsob, ako nájsť samy seba. Hlavná hrdinka románu Bendža je žena ako mnohé z nás. Má muža, dvoch synov, prácu a tak trochu komplikovaný vzťah s rodičmi. Na rozdiel od väčšiny z nás však skončí za múrmi ženského väzenia. Ako sa jej život mohol takto vymknúť z rúk? Ako sa môže „normálny“ človek dostať na také miesto? Čo bude s jej deťmi? Čo bude s ňou? Aký bude návrat domov po niekoľkých rokoch? Kým sa jej v hlave vynárajú tieto a podobné otázky, Bendža sa snaží zvyknúť si na nové životné podmienky. Po mnohých peripetiách napokon zistí, že väzenie bolo pre ňu istý druh terapie, ktorá niekedy bolela tak intenzívne, že mala chuť zomrieť, no zároveň...

Paměti (978-80-280-0113-1)
Elektronická kniha - ze série Pocta osobnostem, Dílo Karla Engliše, autor Karel Engliš, 598 stran, česky Vzpomínky začal Karel Engliš psát v roce 1925, kdy mu bylo 45 let, a s přestávkami na nich pracoval až do konce svého života v roce 1961. Vzniklo tak několik ucelených tematických souborů. Nejde tedy o klasický životopis. Tím je však kniha osobitá a zvláštní. Dovoluje nám nahlédnout, jakými tématy se Engliš v příslušné době zabýval, co považoval za nutné komentovat, zaznamenat. Poskytuje čtenáři možnost poznat Englišův bystrý pozorovací talent a neobyčejnou paměť. S odstupem desetiletí dokáže Karel Engliš líčit události a popisovat osobnosti tak detailně, jako by je prožil či viděl včera. Z textů psaných téměř čtyřicet let na čtenáře zapůsobí Englišovy typické povahové vlastnosti: přímost, pravdomluvnost. Sám v textu uvádí: „Mluvím pravdivě, co si myslím, ať uvalím na sebe číkoli hněv. Tak jsem to dělal po celých 80 let.“ Zaujme jeho laskavost, tolerance,...

Czechoslovakia Exiled: František Váňa and Hlas domova (978-80-7422-818-6)
Kniha - autor Jaroslav Miller, 166 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu lesklá “It is the best-run and highest-quality Czech newspaper in the entire free world.” With these heart-warming words Jiří Voskovec belauded Hlas domova, the exile periodical issued by František Váňa in remote Australia for almost three decades. And yet, this book is about more than just Hlas domova; it is also about the rise of an alternative Czechoslovak exile centre in Melbourne. If the Council of Free Czechoslovakia aspired to be an umbrella organisation coordinating exile activities throughout individual countries, its disunity and the constant infighting that characterised this organisation gradually led to an erosion of confidence and a steep decline in its authority in the eyes of the entire political diaspora. This naturally led to the heavy atomisation of exiles around the world and to the emergence of several “power” centres of Czechoslovak exile life, with Melbourne...

Andrés Iniesta Umělec (978-80-89311-99-6)
Kniha - autor Andrés Iniesta, 306 stran, česky, pevná s přebalem lesklá V knize Umělec španělský maestro vykresluje barvitý autoportrét, nejen vlastními slovy, ale i slovy svých trenérů, spoluhráčů, soupeřů, přátel a rodiny. Výsledek je fascinující. Andrésovi Iniestovi bylo dvanáct let, když ho vyhledávači talentů pozvali do slavné barcelonské akademie La Masia. Krátce poté, co se stal členem klubu, o něm Pep Guardiola řekl: „Tenhle kluk nás všechny pošle do fotbalového důchodu.“ Iniesta se rychle stal trvalým členem zálohy Barcy a nasměroval klub k množství trofejí, včetně osmi vítězství v La Lize a čtyř triumfů v Lize mistrů. S reprezentací vyhrál dvakrát mistrovství Evropy a vstřelil vítězný gól finále mistrovství světa 2010. Za těmi úžasně ladnými přihrávkami a pohyby, stejně jako oceněními a trofejemi se skrývá inteligentní a přemýšlivý muž, který až doteď za sebe nechal mluvit své obdivuhodně šikovné nohy.

The Life, Old Age, and Death of a Working-Class Woman - Didier Eribon
A meditation on the social political and philosophical questions of ageing, from the internationally acclaimed author of Returning to ReimsA few years ago, Didier Eribon’s mother began to lose her physical and cognitive autonomy. After several months of resistance, Eribon and his brothers were compelled to place her in a nursing home. A few short weeks later, his mother passed away. In The Life, Old Age, and Death of a Working-Class Woman, Eribon continues the historical, political and personal reflection he began with Returning to Reims, this time turning his attention to the end of life. Tracing his mother’s rapid decline, and drawing on works by Simone de Beauvoir, Norbert Elias, Annie Ernaux and Michel Foucault, among others, Eribon transmutes his rage, sadness and the shame over her death into a strikingly nuanced portrait of the woman who raised him. Here, Eribon asks: how does our society treat the elderly? What is the place of bodies that can no longer assemble, discuss freedom or protest? Can the completely dependent speak for themselves – and if not, who can speak for them?An honest, original and wide-ranging exploration of the relationship between ageing and class, politics and literature, this is a profound ...

Kniha - autor Jana Hoffmannová, 396 stran, česky, brožovaná bez přebalu lesklá Východiskem dosavadních popisů syntaxe češtiny jsou převážně psané texty; syntax mluvených projevů (zejména těch nepřipravených a polopřipravených) byla zkoumána jen výjimečně. Členové autorského týmu vycházejí z přesvědčení, že lze popsat určité obecné charakteristiky běžně mluvené češtiny, které nepředstavují žádné „nepravidelnosti“ či „odchylky“, na pozadí textů samých. Zaměřují se na popis syntaktické a textové výstavby mluvených projevů se zřetelem k absenci ostře ohraničených jednotek; výpovědní jednotky analyzují jako nedílnou součást dialogických replik a důsledně přihlížejí k jejich funkci v projekčních a interakčních mechanismech. Velkou pozornost věnují rozsáhlé a diferencované kategorii „diskurzních markerů“. To vše spojují se soustavnou interpretací zvukové stránky, hlavně prozodických prostředků. Data pro výzkum byla čerpána především z korpusů mluvené češtiny, ale i...

Solving, Resolving, and Dissolving Philosophical Problems - P. M. S. Hacker
Equips readers with the intellectual tools required to tackle perennial philosophical problems Solving, Resolving, and Dissolving Philosophical Problems is addressed to all who are interested in philosophical questions. It presupposes little philosophical knowledge, only curiosity and an open mind. It demands a willingness to learn not doctrine but method, and the courage to suspend judgement and to challenge received ideas. Advocating the method of the 3 C-s: Connective, Contrastive, and Contextual Analysis, the book demonstrates the method by putting it to work — examining fifteen salient philosophical questions that concern all thinking people. It is organized thematically into four parts. Part I introduces questions in philosophy of psychology (the nature of the mind; the mind/body problem; the nature of consciousness and its demystification; knowledge of other minds). Part II deals with epistemological questions (knowledge, belief; memory; imagination, thinking; dreaming). Part III deals with value (the roots of morality; the nature of good and evil; the need for a secular conception of the soul; happiness). The application of the method in the essays produces striking, original and unanticipated results that will give readers pause. The final part of the book articulates in detail the methodology of the 3 C-s exemplified by ... Unknown localization key: "more"

From syntax to Text: the Janus face of Functional Sentence Perspective - Libuše Dušková
The volume presents the author's articles written in the last fifteen years, dealing with the interaction between syntax, functional sentence perspective (information structure) and text in present-day English. It is divided into five parts, I Syntactic Constancy, II Syntax FSP Interface, III FSP and Semantics, IV Syntax, FSP, Text and V Style, which reveal the two facets of functional sentence perspective: syntactic structures as realization forms of the carriers of FSP functions, and the connection of FSP with the level of text. The first and the last two parts frame the content of the volume in treating the role of functional sentence perspective at the syntactic and the textual levels. At the former, FSP is investigated as a potential factor of syntactic divergence between English and Czech, at the latter the role of FSP is examined with respect to theme development, text build-up and style. The points discussed in the other parts concern, among others, the hierarchical relationship between syntax and FSP, the question of potentiality in FSP structure, different realization forms of FSP structure and FSP functions, general and specific questions of word order, with major attention paid to the role of semantics

Dual-Aspect Monism and the Deep Structure of Meaning - Dean Rickles, Harald Atmanspacher
Dual-Aspect Monism and the Deep Structure of Meaning investigates the metaphysical position of dual-aspect monism, with particular emphasis on the concept of meaning as a fundamental feature of the fabric of reality. As an alternative to other positions – mainly dualism, physicalism, idealism – that have been proposed to understand consciousness and its place in nature, the decompositional version of dual-aspect monism considers the mental and the physical as two aspects of one underlying undivided reality that is psychophysically neutral. Inspired by analogies with modern physics and driven by its conceptual problems, Wolfgang Pauli, Carl Gustav Jung, Arthur Eddington, John Wheeler, David Bohm, and Basil Hiley are the originators of the approaches studied. A radically novel common theme in their approaches is the constitutive role of meaning and its deep structure, relating the mental and the physical to a psychophysically neutral base.The authors reconstruct the formal structure of these approaches, and compare their conceptual emphases as well as their relative strengths and weaknesses. They also address a number of challenging themes for current and future interdisciplinary research, both theoretical and empirical, that arise from the presented frameworks of thinking.Dual-Aspect Monism and the Deep Structure of Meaning will be of interest ...

Repetition and Philosophical Crumbs - Soren Kierkegaard, Edward F. Mooney
''The love of repetition is in truth the only happy love''So says Constantine Constantius on the first page of Kierkegaard''s Repetition. Life itself, according to Kierkegaard''s pseudonymous narrator, is a repetition, and in the course of this witty, playful work Constantius explores the nature of love and happiness, the passing of time and the importance of moving forward (and backward). The ironically entitled Philosophical Crumbs pursues the investigation of faith and love and their tense relationship with reason.Written only a year apart, these two works complement each other and give the reader a unique insight into the breadth and substance of Kierkegaard''s thought. The first reads like a novel and the second like a Platonic dialogue, but both engage, in different ways, the same challenging issues. These are the first translations to convey the literary quality and philosophical precision of the originals. They were not intended, however, for philosophers, but for anyone who feels drawn to the question of the ultimate truth of human existence and the source of human happiness.

Synthetic Biology - Jamie A. Davies
Synthetic biology is one of the 21st century''s fastest growing fields of research, as important for technology as for basic science. Building on traditional genetic engineering, which was restricted to changing one or two genes, synthetic biology uses multi-gene modules and pathways to make very significant changes to what cells can do. Synthetic biologists aim to have an impact in fields as diverse as drug manufacture, biofuel production, tackling pollution, and medical diagnostics. Further ahead, synthetic biology may even make possible the long-standing goal of creating new life from non-living starting materials.This Very Short Introduction provides a concise explanation of what synthetic biology is, and how it is beginning to affect many fields of technology. Jamie Davies also discusses the considerable controversies surrounding synthetic biology, from questions over the assumption that engineering concepts can be applied to living systems easily, to scepticism over the claims for commercial promise, fears that the dangers of engineering life are worse than its benefits, and concerns over whether humans should be designing living systems at all.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area.

"The Unthinkable" in Ethics, History and Philosophical Anthropology - Professor Sami Pihlstrom
What we find ‘unthinkable’ is not seriously considered as an ethical option in our thought and deliberation; it is ruled out from the outset. Combining a broadly pragmatist approach with a Kantian-inspired transcendental strategy, Sami Pihlström distinguishes between what is considered ‘unthinkable’ and what is merely ethically wrong. Pihlström demonstrates how different issues concerning the unthinkable vs the thinkable, ranging from the proper ethical response to the Holocaust to philosophical considerations of monstrous characters familiar in gothic fiction, may challenge the categories we use to structure the world. In particular, he makes the case that it is unthinkable for us to reject the kind of ‘human exceptionalism’ that attributes an ineliminable dignity or preciousness to human beings. Chapters also explore the complex relationship between our responses to human suffering and the suffering of non-human animals, together with questions concerning the philosophy of war and pacifism. ‘The Unthinkable’ in Ethics, History and Philosophical Anthropology turns our attention to the ethically and ontologically constitutive character of the boundaries we draw between the thinkable and the unthinkable, while utilizing conceptual and argumentative resources from the Wittgensteinian tradition in moral philosophy, particularly from the work of Raimond Gaita. An original and timely study, it ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Consolations: The Solace, Nourishment and Underlying Meaning of Everyday Words (1786897636)
Kniha - autor David Whyte, 176 stran, anglicky, Pevná bez přebalu lesklá - autor David Whyte, 176 stran, anglicky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá With the imagery of a poet and the reflection of a philosopher, David Whyte turns his attention to 52 ordinary words, each its own particular doorway into the underlying currents of human life. Beginning with ALONE and closing with WORK, each chapter is a meditation on meaning and context, an invitation to shift and broaden our perspectives on the inevitable vicissitudes of life: pain and joy, honesty and anger, confession and vulnerability, the experience of feeling besieged and the desire to run away from it all. Through this lens, procrastination may be a necessary ripening; hiding an act of freedom; and shyness the appropriate confusion and helplessness that accompanies the first stage of revelation. CONSOLATIONS invites readers into a poetic and thoughtful consideration of words whose meaning and interpretation...

Kniha - slovensky Okolie Púchova leží v údolí Váhu pod odvekým dohľadom Bielych Karpát a Javorníkov. O tom, že na území mesta už od nepamäti nebolo pusto, svedčí množstvo archeologických nálezov. Tie najvýznamnejšie pochádzajú z okolia Púchovskej skaly, ktorá prenechala meno významnej pravekej kultúre – púchovskej kultúre. Púchov vznikol na významnej obchodnej križovatke, no jeho význam ešte viac vzrástol po výstavbe železničnej trate Púchov – Horní Lideč. Nazýva sa aj Železnica generála M. R. Štefánika a v roku 2018 oslávila svoje 80. narodeniny. Ruka v ruke so stavbou železnice rástol aj priemysel. Púchovské podniky na výrobu pneumatík a oblečenia sa dodnes radia k najväčším na Slovensku. V regióne má nezastupiteľné miesto aj sklárska tradícia. Tunajšie sklárne v Lednických Rovniach vyrábajú už od roku 1892. Stáročným strážcom regiónu je hrad Lednica. Zrúcanina starobylého hradu sa týči na strmom skalnom brale.

Philosophical Foundations of Neuroscience - M. R. Bennett, P. M. S. Hacker
The second edition of the seminal work in the field—revised, updated, and extended  In Philosophical Foundations of Neuroscience, M.R. Bennett and P.M.S. Hacker outline and address the conceptual confusions encountered in various neuroscientific and psychological theories. The result of a collaboration between an esteemed philosopher and a distinguished neuroscientist, this remarkable volume presents an interdisciplinary critique of many of the neuroscientific and psychological foundations of modern cognitive neuroscience. The authors point out conceptual entanglements in a broad range of major neuroscientific and psychological theories—including those of such neuroscientists as Blakemore, Crick, Damasio, Dehaene, Edelman, Gazzaniga, Kandel, Kosslyn, LeDoux, Libet, Penrose, Posner, Raichle and Tononi, as well as psychologists such as Baar, Frith, Glynn, Gregory, William James, Weiskrantz, and biologists such as Dawkins, Humphreys, and Young. Confusions arising from the work of philosophers such as Dennett, Chalmers, Churchland, Nagel and Searle are subjected to detailed criticism. These criticisms are complemented by constructive analyses of the major cognitive, cogitative, emotional and volitional attributes that lie at the heart of cognitive neuroscientific research. Now in its second edition, this groundbreaking work has been exhaustively revised and updated to address current issues and critiques.

Remembering the Jewish and German Questions: Essays on Fairy Tales, Poetry, and Culture is a selection of Jack Zipes’s insightful essays and presentations on fairy tales, Jewish studies, philosophy, drama, and the German public sphere.The collection begins by considering how fairy tales have been shaped by societies, and how they have influenced society in turn. Zipes considers the history of the Grimms’ fairy tales and their popularity and spread – comparing them to an epidemic. The second chapter champions the work and significance of the great philosopher Ernst Bloch, with substantial engagement with the essay collection Not Yet: Reconsidering Ernst Bloch (Daniel and Moylan 1997). Chapter 3 probes into the way society makes sense of the world through fairy tales and fantasy. In Chapter 4, Zipes explores the shift and reemergence of Jewish culture in Germany in the 1990s. He turns to the work of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari to offer insight into the usefulness of a "minor literature" for grasping the impact of Jewish culture as a minor culture in Germany.

An Inquiry Into Meaning and Truth - Bertrand Russell
In An Inquiry Into Meaning and Truth, Bertrand Russell returns to philosophy after a long period of writing about education, religion and marriage. Investigating how we can be justified in what we know and how we can reconcile knowledge of the physical world with immediate sensory knowledge, Russell sets out to reconcile the various aspects of his thought since his early logicist period—the view that mathematical truths are ultimately logical truths.Russell''s goal is to stress-test empiricism in light of contemporary developments in logic and language or, as Russell himself succinctly puts it, "to combine a general outlook akin to Hume''s with the methods that have grown out of modern logic". His quest combines three strands: metaphysical, epistemological and linguistic.Both a fascinating insight into Russell’s evolving views and the continuity of his thinking over the years, it also foreshadows many future debates which came to occupy centre stage within English-speaking philosophy: debates about realism and anti-realism, the viability of pragmatism as a philosophical theory and the perennial opposition between holism and atomism.This Routledge Classics edition includes a new Foreword by Pascal Engel, placing Russell''s book in helpful philosophical context.

Meaning - Emma Borg, Sarah A. Fisher
Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, Sharp, InspiringOur ability to find meaning in things is one of the most important aspects of human life. But it is also one of the most mysterious. Where does meaning come from? What sorts of things have meaning? And how do we grasp the meaning others want to convey? This Very Short Introduction is shaped by exploring possible answers to these questions.Human societies have one particularly important device for expressing and sharing meaning: language. Since our words are paradigm examples of things which have meaning, in this book, Emma Borg and Sarah Fisher use meaning in language as a case study for exploring meaning more generally. They focus on three possible sources for word meaning: things in the world, things in the mind, and social practices, exploring the key approaches thinkers have put forward in each of these arenas. Finally, they end by looking at some concrete applications of the ideas and approaches introduced in the book.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area.
