Tintin (5) - Modrý lotos - Herge
Dobrodružství odvážného reportéra Tintina, které začalo v příběhu Faraonovy doutníky, se blíží do finále. Tintin cestuje na Dálný východ, aby zde konečně odhalil bandu pašeráků, která mu po celou cestu usiluje o život. Komiks patří po výtvarné stránce k nejoriginálnějším, protože belgický kreslíř Hergé se při tvorbě nechal výrazně inspirovat čínskými stavbami, písmem i oblečením.

Critical Approaches to the Australian Blue Humanities
This interdisciplinary edited collection explores and analyses the field of the blue humanities through an Australian lens. The blue humanities is a way of understanding humanity’s relationship with water and manifestations of what is referred to as the ‘blue’ – reefs, oceans, rivers, creeks, basins, and inland bodies of water.In its scope, this collection emphasises both the importance of the local and the interconnectedness of Australia with global environmental concerns. It considers how we conceptualise watery spaces and shades of blue in a country where water is often marked by its absence, its ephemerality, its politicisation, and its dangers. Contributors from environmental history, environmental social science, political science, literary studies, creative arts, Indigenous Knowledge, education, and anthropology tackle various entanglements between the human, the more-than-human, and watery Australian spaces in modern culture. It is the first volume to offer a specific, dedicated focus on the intersections between Australian space and the blue humanities, and it offers a pathway for those wishing to explore, critique, and advance ideas around the blue humanities in both research and teaching.Directly contributing to a growing interdisciplinary field, this is the first book to comprehensively examine the blue in Australia, appealing to scholars, educators, and students ...

Secrets of the Blue Hand Girls - Rowana Miller
In this fast-paced dark academia debut, a high school student is drawn into a secret society bent on uncovering the hidden truths of her elite Manhattan school. But as she digs deeper, she begins to suspect that the society’s mysterious leaders – possibly including her new girlfriend – may have far more sinister motives. When the first letter appears in Kay Anderson's locker, it carries one instruction: dye your hand blue. She definitely shouldn't follow it. Kay doesn't have time for secret societies: as a scholarship student at up-and-coming Manhattan prep school Davison High, she knows her job is to work hard, get into Northwestern, and ignore her wealthy classmates' fun-filled Instagram stories. Besides, her first and only real friend at Davison died suddenly last year. Still, Kay's intrigued, so she stains her palms with ink to join the mysterious Blue Hand Girls, sharing an unspoken thrill with the classmates who do the same. More letters show up, assigning risky initiation tasks, and Kay realises the group is set on exposing the shady business that Davison's founders would rather keep hidden – things that her dead friend might have known about. But the anonymous instructions also demand the girls reveal ... Unknown localization key: "more"
