Tento okouzlující román obsahuje zpověď a barvité vzpomínky Diany Pleaseové (Rosemonde de St. Croix), kdy autor vycházel z jejích francouzských zápisků, které diktovala své přítelkyni markýze de C--. Madame de St. Croix byla "vášnivá", jak Francouzi nazývali Casanovu, a skutečně měla s tímto dobrodruhem mnoho společného: nezkrotné tuláctví, lásku k literatuře, vášnivou představivost a sebelásku... Bernard Edward Joseph Capes (1854 - 1918) se narodil v Londýně. Capes byl plodným viktoriánským autorem, publikoval více než čtyřicet svazků – romance, záhady, poezie, historie – spolu s mnoha články pro tehdejší časopisy. První úspěch zaznamenal v roce 1897, kdy se přihlásil do soutěže o 30 000 dolarů pro nové autory sponzorované Chicago Record. Získal druhou cenu za ´Mlýn ticha´ , který toho roku vydal Rand McNally. Následující rok Chicago Record uspořádalo soutěž...

S 80 ročky na hrbu, co mi už je, jsem je chtěl oslavit pokusem o novou reedici jejich vydání. Tehdejší texty nebyly doprovázeny žádnými fotografiemi, tak jsem to nyní napravil a k literárním záznamům svého beatnického a undergroundového života za éry komunismu jsem připojil 134 fotek dokumentujících tehdejší moje životní peripetie. Protože mám za to, že knížka „Satori v Praze“, která dosvědčuje, že i za bolševika se dalo žít svobodně a i radostně, je nosná i po těch uplynulých třech desetiletích, obrátil jsem se s reedicí na několik nakladatelství (Argo, Paseka, Pulchra, Maťa atp). Uspěl jsem teprve u časopisu Revolver Revue, které vydává též knižní edici. Jenže vzhledem k finanční situaci Revolverky nakonec k vydání bohužel nedošlo, tak jsem se tedy rozhodl reedici vydat...

Neustále jsem potkávala stejné lidi, hlavně šerifa Bradleyho, který mě vytáčel. Jenže mi najednou došlo, že nejde o nenávist, ale o touhu svádět policejního fešáka tak dlouho, dokud si mě nespoutá drsně, něžně i navždy. Může vztah mezi kleptomankou a poldou fungovat, když každý stojíme na jiné straně zákona? Když tvrdí: „Lauro, jsem policista a nemůžu randit s výtržníky!“ Snažil se mi odolat, ale zvládne se držet svých zásad? Hrála jsem si s ním jako kočka s myší. Podlehne mi? Vždyť bych tak ráda skončila zadržená a nadržená v jeho náručí. Chápu, že nemůže věčně krýt moje drobné krádeže, ale vzájemnou přitažlivost nelze přehlédnout.

Ty mu pak pomáhají zdolat těžké okamžiky jeho života. Děj se odehrává v Burgundsku za vlády Ludvíka XIII. Colas měl ženu, čtyři syny, dceru Martinu a mnoho vnoučat. Nebál se práce, byl společenský, chodil na procházky a měl velmi rád víno, prostě si užíval života. Špatné věci zaháněl svým smyslem pro humor.

From the mid-sixteenth to the early nineteenth centuries, Barbary corsairs from North Africa swarmed the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, seizing enormous amounts of booty and tens of thousands of captives, hauling them back to the slave markets in their home ports and auctioning them off to the highest bidder. The conflict between these Barbary corsairs and Europe was military, but not just that; religious, but not just that; social and economic, but not just that either. Above all, it was a human conflict, with all the confusion, blurred lines, and inherent messiness of such things, and the narratives it generated were more complicated than simple swashbuckling pirate tales. _Corsairs & Captives_ presents a collection of these narratives, all based directly on primary-source documents, a number of which are translated into English for the first time. They include biographies of four renegade corsair captains (Europeans who converted to Islam and became corsairs), descriptions of sea battles by those who were there, accounts of ransomed captives, the report of a French Trinitarian friar who led a ransoming expedition to Algiers, even the transcript of a trial held by the Canary Islands chapter of the (in)famous Spanish Inquisition.

Two novellas by Peter Handke—his first works to be published since he won the 2019 Nobel Prize in Literature. The Second Sword and My Day in the Other Land are two novellas by the 2019 Nobel laureate Peter Handke. The first picks up the story where Handke’s last work of fiction, The Fruit Thief (described in The New York Times as “an experience of unadulterated literature”), left off. Here a man has returned to his home in the suburbs of Paris, only to soon set out again. Why? We learn, over the course of a story redolent of Handke’s harrowing A Sorrow Beyond Dreams, that he is seeking to avenge his mother, who has been unjustly denounced in the pages of a newspaper.

How a mother's wisdom and grace helped one family come to terms with her dementia. Chrisoula had long been known for frying up honeyed Greek donuts anytime a guest arrived on her doorstep, offering a listening ear and sage advice, and sending her loved ones home with a plate of the golden orbs. She had cheeky blue eyes, a ready laugh and a generous heart - all of which had helped her deal with the many adversities she faced in her life. When she was diagnosed with dementia, Chrisoula drew on her trademark humour and earthy wit to ask the only questions that mattered: What would be the best photo to have on her gravestone? Did the glittering gold dress she wanted to be buried in need to be ironed? And would it hurt to enter the wormhole of death?As Chrisoula's dementia progressed, her adult children, Spiri and Dennis, grappled with guilt, sadness and fatigue as they fumbled their way from one bewildering symptom and care system to the next. But their mother had given them some very special gifts draw on at this time and which they could use long after she was gone. In this compelling tribute to ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Glenn Richardson provides the first history in more than four decades of a major Tudor event: an extraordinary international gathering of Renaissance rulers unparalleled in its opulence, pageantry, controversy, and mystery.  Throughout most of the late medieval period, from 1300 to 1500, England and France were bitter enemies, often at war or on the brink of it. In 1520, in an effort to bring conflict to an end, England’s monarch, Henry VIII, and Francis I of France agreed to meet, surrounded by virtually their entire political nations, at “the Field of Cloth of Gold.” In the midst of a spectacular festival of competition and entertainment, the rival leaders hoped to secure a permanent settlement between them, as part of a European-wide “Universal Peace.” Richardson offers a bold new appraisal of this remarkable historical event, describing the preparations and execution of the magnificent gathering, exploring its ramifications, and arguing that it was far more than the extravagant elitist theater and cynical charade it historically has been considered to be.

1520 explores the characters of two larger-than-life kings, whose rivalry and love-hate relations added a feisty edge to European relations in the early 16th century. What propelled them to meet, and how did each vie to outdo the other in feats of strength and yards of gold cloth? Everyone who was anyone in 1520 was there. But why were the flower of EnglandÂ’s nobility transported across the Channel, and how were they catered for? What did this temporary, fairy-tale village erected in a French field look like, feel like and smell like? This book explores not only the political dimension of their meeting, and the difficult triangle they established with Emperor Charles V, but also the material culture behind the scenes. While the courtiers attended masques, dances, feasts and jousts, an army of servants toiled in the temporary village created specially for that summer. Who were the men and women behind the scenes? And what was the long-term result of the meeting, of that sea of golden tents and fountains spouting wine?

Kniha - autor Randolph M. Nesse, 384 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná One of the world's most respected psychiatrists provides a much-needed new evolutionary framework for making sense of mental illness. With his classic book Why We Get Sick, Randolph Nesse established the field of evolutionary medicine. Now he returns with a book that transforms our understanding of mental disorders by exploring a fundamentally new question. Instead of asking why certain people suffer from mental illness, Nesse asks why natural selection has left us with fragile minds at all. Drawing on revealing stories from his own clinical practice and insights from evolutionary biology, Nesse shows how negative emotions are useful in certain situations, yet can become excessive. Anxiety protects us from harm in the face of danger, but false alarms are inevitable. Low mood prevents us from wasting effort in pursuit of unreachable goals, but it often escalates into pathological...

Elektronická kniha - autor kolektiv autorů, 292 stran The monograph seeks to answer the questions of how juristic persons—as artificial legal entities with no distinct intellect or will of their own—can perform legal acts (i.e. engage in legal conduct) and in what way they can become legally liable (not only for their conduct). To develop these issues, the monograph explores the concept of a juristic person and this person’s legal acts from a general jurisprudential point of view, then from the perspective of fundamental rights, and finally from the viewpoint of contemporary law, with a particular emphasis on Czech law. The book addresses juristic persons’ legal acts not only in relation to substantive law, but also in respect of procedural rules that enable these persons to perform acts in civil proceedings. Several sections of the monograph deal with issues of liability and responsibility of juristic persons while analysing their “no-fault” and “fault-based”...

Kniha - autor Marjane Satrapi, 344 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná Wise, often funny, sometimes heartbreaking, "Persepolis: The Story of a Childhood" tells the story of Marjane Satrapi's life in Tehran from the ages of six to fourteen, years that saw the overthrow of the Shah's regime, the triumph of the Islamic Revolution and the devastating effects of war with Iraq. The intelligent and outspoken child of radical Marxists, and the great-grandaughter of Iran's last emperor, Satrapi bears witness to a childhood uniquely entwined with the history of her country. Persepolis paints an unforgettable portrait of daily life in Iran and of the bewildering contradictions between home life and public life.

In the twenty-first century, a wave of political, cultural and technological change has capsized our old certainties and assumptions, creating both opportunity and danger. As people lose their faith in old institutions and elites, radical voices at the margins and the grassroots are disrupting the status quo. This is the time of the outsider – the protester, the populist, the hacker. Some of these outsiders have sown chaos, like Donald Trump, and others have provided inspirational leadership, like Volodymyr Zelensky. But all have grasped this precarious moment to make something new. Writing with a critic’s incisive understanding of cultural trends, Michiko Kakutani outlines the consequences of these new asymmetries of power, and looks back to similar hinge moments in history, from the waning of the Middle Ages to the aftermath of the Second World War, to find a way forward. For there is, Kakutani argues, always the promise of transformation in times of turmoil. We can surrender to the waters, give in to the gathering chaos, or we can use the wave’s momentum to propel us into a more stable and sustainable future.
