Žiadna vojna nie je len mužskou záležitosťou. Dotýka sa aj žien. A nie iba jednej či dvoch. A trójska vojna je príbehom mnohých žien… Keď sa Kreusa v jednu noc prebudí, zistí, že jej milované mesto pohltili plamene. Desať rokov zdanlivo nekonečných bojov medzi Grékmi a Trójanmi sa skončilo. Trója padla. Tento príbeh však nie je len o jednej žene, ale o všetkých ženách, ktorých život, lásku a súperenie navždy poznačila táto dlhá a tragická vojna. Dotýka sa všetkých trójskych žien, ktorých osudy teraz držia v rukách Gréci, nevynímajúc princeznú Amazoniek bojujúcu za svoje družky po boku Achilla, či grécku Penelopu, ktorá čaká na Odyseov návrat, až po tri bohyne, ktorých spor to všetko spustil – tieto príbehy konečne vystupujú z tieňa slávnych mužských hrdinov. Natalie Haynesová vo svojom románe Tisíc lodí prináša nový pohľad na jeden z najväčších epických príbehov, kde sa dievčatá, ženy a bohyne stávajú ústrednými postavami.

In A Thousand Ships, broadcaster and classicist Natalie Haynes retells the story of the Trojan War from an all-female perspective, for fans of Madeline Miller and Pat Barker. This was never the story of one woman, or two. It was the story of them all . . . In the middle of the night, a woman wakes to find her beloved city engulfed in flames. Ten seemingly endless years of conflict between the Greeks and the Trojans are over. Troy has fallen. From the Trojan women whose fates now lie in the hands of the Greeks, to the Amazon princess who fought Achilles on their behalf, to Penelope awaiting the return of Odysseus, to the three goddesses whose feud started it all, these are the stories of the women embroiled in the legendary war. Powerfully told from an all-female perspective, in A Thousand Ships Natalie Haynes puts the women, girls and goddesses at the centre of the story.

It''s time for us to re-examine the past. Our lives are infinitely richer if we take the time to look at what the Greeks and Romans have given us in politics and law, religion and philosophy and education, and to learn how people really lived in Athens, Rome, Sparta and Alexandria. This is a book with a serious point to make but the author isn''t simply a classicist but a comedian and broadcaster who has made television and radio documentaries about humour, education and Dorothy Parker. This is a book for us all.Whether political, cultural or social, there are endless parallels between the ancient and modern worlds. Whether it''s the murder of Caesar or the political assassination of Thatcher; the narrative arc of the hit HBO series The Wire or that of Oedipus; the popular enthusiasm for the Emperor Titus or President Obama - over and over again we can be seen to be living very much like people did 2,000 or more years ago.

Divine Might is a female-centered look at Olympus and the Furies, focusing on the goddesses whose prowess, passions, jealousies, and desires rival those of their male kin, including:Athene, who sprang fully formed from her father’s brow (giving Zeus a killer headache in the process), the goddess of war and provider of wise counsel.Aphrodite, born of the foam (and sperm released from a Titan’s castrated testicles), the most beautiful of all the Olympian goddesses, the epitome of love who dispenses desire and inspires longing—yet harbors a fearsome vengeful side, doling out brutal punishments to those who displease her.Hera, Zeus’s long-suffering wife, whose jealousy born of his repeated dalliances with mortals, nymphs, and other goddesses, leads her to wreak elaborate and often painful revenge on those she believes have wronged her.

Řecké mýty spolu s Homérovými eposy Ilias a Odyssea nesporně tvoří základ euroamerické kultury a jejich velké postavy jsme si zvykli vnímat přes zjednodušenou šablonu jejich výrazných vlastností: mazaný Odysseus, udatný Achilleus, věrná Penelopé.Natalie Haynes se s takovým viděním nespokojila a v knize Tisíc lodí nabízí mnohem plastičtější pohled. Jejími hrdiny nejsou po staletí opěvovaní chrabří rekové, ale jejich ženy, dcery a matky, do jejichž života válka zasáhla s nemenší silou.Dva tisíce let staré příběhy o statečnosti, zradě a pomstě dávají v autorčině podání hlas civilním obětem Trojské války, ale především nám je přibližují jako živoucí bytosti s přesvědčivými emocemi: ješitné bohyně hašteřící se o zlaté jablko, Penelopino rostoucí podráždění z manželovy nepřítomnosti, rezignovaná frustrace Kassandry, jejímž věštbám nikdo nevěří, ačkoli se pokaždé vyplní.Autorka ve své knize čerpá kromě Homéra také z mnoha méně známých dochovaných spisů, ale její převyprávění rozhodně netrpí pietní škrobeností – všechny postavy i motivy jejich jednání jsou velice současné, uvěřitelné, a především úžasně zábavné.

''Funny, sharp explications of what these sometimes not-very-nice women were up to!'' – Margaret Atwood, author of The Handmaid''s TaleThe Greek myths are among the world''s most important cultural building blocks and they have been retold many times, but rarely do they focus on the remarkable women at the heart of these ancient stories.Now, in Pandora''s Jar: Women in the Greek Myths, Natalie Haynes – broadcaster, writer and passionate classicist – redresses this imbalance. Taking Pandora and her jar (the box came later) as the starting point, she puts the women of the Greek myths on equal footing with the menfolk.Stories of gods and monsters are the mainstay of epic poetry and Greek tragedy, from Homer to Aeschylus. But modern tellers of Greek myth have usually been men, and have routinely shown little interest in telling women’s stories. And when they do, those women are often painted as monstrous, vengeful or just plain evil. But Pandora – the first woman, who according to legend unloosed chaos upon the world – was not a villain, and even Medea and Phaedra have more nuanced stories than generations of retellings might indicate.After millennia of stories telling of gods and men, be they Zeus ...

In the style of The Screwtape Letters, with a satire that will make you both cringe and laugh–out–loud, Natalie Brand demonstrates the havoc unleashed by careless words.  Scuttlebutt (naval slang for the ship’s gossip) is the affectionate nickname given to the Tongue by the Heart, as he reprimands the Tongue for steering the whole person into catastrophe; enjoying morsels of gossip, creating smokescreens of lies. From the Bible’s teaching on speech,particularly the Proverbs, the reader will taste the bitter destruction of the Tongue.  But as the Heart rebukes the Tongue it becomes increasingly clear that something isn’t right … there is  another villain, a deeper poison, lurking within. What can be done if the Tongue remains untameable? Will the Heart get away with his hypocrisy? Is there redemption for either? An immensely challenging little book for anyone with a tongue … or a heart!

In The Autocratic Voter, Natalie Wenzell Letsa explores the motivations behind why citizens in electoral autocracies choose to participate in politics and support political parties. With electoral autocracies becoming the most common type of regime in the modern world, Letsa challenges the dominant materialist framework for understanding political behavior and presents an alternative view of partisanship as a social identity. Her book argues that despite the irrationality and obstacles to participating in autocratic politics, people are socialized into becoming partisans by their partisan friends and family. This socialization process has a cascading effect that can either facilitate support for regime change and democracy or sustain the status quo. By delving into the social identity of partisanship, The Autocratic Voter offers a new perspective on political behavior in electoral autocracies that has the potential to shape the future of these regimes.
