‘So vivid and true . . . Lampedusa is a beautiful novel, lyrical and wise. Reading it made me feel both melancholy and uplifted.’ David Gilmour, Financial Times ‘Brimming with wise and lyrical insights that make it a worthy heir to its mighty predecessor.’ New York Times In the Sicily of the 1950s, still haunted by memories of Fascism and the war, the last Prince of Lampedusa, Giuseppe Tomasi, struggles to complete his only novel, The Leopard. Tomasi is a veteran of the previous war, while his wife Alessandra is living in exile after her native Latvia is absorbed into the Soviet Union. The childless couple are survivors of a vanishing world of European aristocracy, living in the present, yet nostalgic for the decadent past. Diagnosed with advanced emphysema and with a profound awareness of his doomed lineage, the prince begins working on a novel. When The Leopard is posthumously published, it is to much acclaim; it will come to be considered the greatest Italian novel of the century. Achingly haunting, Lampedusa tells the story of a man’s awakening to the possibilities of life as he nears its end. ‘In subtle and intelligent prose, Price invites us into the mind ...

I’ve contacted the leopard authorities and they assure me they are used to dealing with leopards like this, and they have a plan for removing the leopard. It will take a while, though, and once in a while I can hear it growl.And that’s all very reassuring.

This book is an anthology of philosophical essays. Its principle is simple: the moments of our life are original. What we perceive and think does not arise from an elusive and illusive entity called God, Soul or External World. This setting, in line with philosophical and scientific trends, is the starting point for reaching a coherent and innovative solution to the problems of knowledge. In the foreground we encounter the relationship between the mind and the brain, where the terms are composed according to the analogy with music and the musical score, and then the basis of time and the sense of the Big Bang. These are the frame and sketch of the book.

In 1963 West Germany and the United States signed an agreement to develop the best tank in the world - the MBT/KPz-70. Though by 1970 this project was stopped, West Germany used the components created for the MBT/KPz-70 to develop a new main battle tank - the Leopard 2. Since 1979, when the first Leopard 2 rolled off the production line, the Leopard 2 has undergone various modifications, and has been exported to various European countries. Enhanced by Osprey''s signature colour plates and cutaway artwork, this book examines the development of the Leopard 2 from the first batch to its evolution into the improved Leopard 2 A5, detailing its features and variants.

With The Grove of the Eumenides, the Lithuanian poet Tomas Venclova affirms his place as one of Europe’s greatest living poets, the heir to Akhmatova, Mandelstam and Milosz. Venclova’s masterful poetry upholds a vision of the world that enables us to endure the darkness of our time through his singular insights, ethical endurance and profound compassion. With classical grace, yet manifesting a deep commitment to remain a witness to the contemporary world, The Grove of the Eumenides is a collection of great wisdom.Venclova’s poetry addresses the desolate landscape of the aftermath of totalitarianism, as well as the ethical constants that allow for hope and perseverance. Bloodaxe published another selection of his poetry, The Junction, in 2008, bringing together new translations of his most recent work from that time as well as a selection of poems from his 1997 volume Winter Dialogue.While The Junction covered poems written while he was still in Lithuania before his forced emigration – and poems from his first decades in the US dealing with exile – The Grove of the Eumenides addresses ‘later life’ issues of democracy, memory, climate, travel, ethics and aging. There is no overlap between the two editions.

Figurína malířské panny naslouchající Allenu Ginsbergovi, hrající si s bratry Čapky, jako postava obrazu Františka Kupky, společnice Vítězslava Nezvala či Jiřího Koláře, ale také jako Salome nesoucí hlavu svého tvůrce - samotného malíře. Tomáš Císařovský získal pro svůj nejnovější cyklus zdatnou múzu. Navíc věčnou, je totiž nesmrtelná, protože nikdy nebyla ani živá. Císařovský ji objevil ve svém bývalém ateliéru v pražských Dejvicích, který před ním na počátku minulého století užíval malíř a profesor na pražské Akademii výtvarných umění Vlaho Bukovac. A právě této téměř stopadesátileté bezejmenné panně daroval Císařovský vlastní život a nechal ji důvěrně vstoupit do svých děl. V žádném jiném cyklu obrazů Tomáš Císařovský nespojil svůj trvalý zájem o dějinné události a postavy s důsledným ohledáváním všeho lidského i nelidského v nitru člověka i umělce samotného.

Téma monografie čtyř autorů z Ústavu české literatury a literární vědy Filozofické fakulty UK by šlo shrnout jako "implicitní polemiku" s tradovaným výrokem Theodora W. Adorna o nemožnosti psaní poezie po Osvětimi. Tématem je právě šoa/holokaust v české literatuře s přihlédnutím k literatuře slovenské, dalším literaturám Střední Evropy a také k československému filmu. Umělecké reprezentaci šoa v literatuře a filmu se u nás dosud věnovala velmi malá pozornost, kniha v tomto navazuje na dosud ojedinělou publikaci Holokaust v české, slovenské a polské literatuře (ed. J. Holý, 2007). Studie čtyř autorů zkoumají šoa v literatuře z různých stran, přehledově (Jiří Holý) i detailněji, z hlediska jednotlivých problémů (pamětní práce kultury - Petr Málek, šoa z pohledu viníků či traumatičnosti návratu - Jiří Holý) i autorských osobností a poetik (Michael Špirit se věnuje Josefu Škvoreckému, Filip Tomáš dílu Arnošta Lustiga a neprávem opomíjenému Jiřímu R. Pickovi). Shodují se přitom, že jde o téma zásadní, jehož umělecká reprezentace zasahuje i do hodnotových otázek současného života. Popsat a pochopit tyto na pohled nesdělitelné zkušenosti a rozumem sotva pochopitelné události zůstává pro umění i odborné zkoumání trvalou výzvou bez ohledu na časový odstup.

První souborné vydání fotografií Eugena Wiškovského společně s jeho texty. Fotograf, pedagog, překladatel Sigmunda Freuda a v neposlední řadě také tenista Eugen Wiškovský (1888-1964) je stále více oceňován jako čelný představitel české avantgardy a řazen po bok autorům, jako je František Drtikol, Jaromír Funke nebo Jaroslav Rössler. Tvůrce co do rozsahu nevelkého fotografického díla byl také autorem nepříliš početných, ale o to inspirativnějších textů o fotografii, ve kterých shrnul principy avantgardní fotografie, obhajoval svébytnost fotografie mezi ostatními druhy umění a přinesl specifické pojetí jak vnímat černobílou fotografii. Americký historik umění Matthew S. Witkovsky jej v úvodním textu přibližuje jako fotografa, který zcela osobitě po svém reagoval na novou věcnost a spojoval přístup k fotografii s podněty z tvarové psychologie nebo psychoanalýzy. Tato první souborná reedice Wiškovského textů je jistě inspirativní nejen pro teoretiky umění, ale také pro ty, kteří hledají další cesty ve své vlastní fotografické tvorbě.

Here, Dita writes with startling clarity on the horrors and joys of a life delayed by the Holocaust.

But she also looks beyond the Holocaust - to the life she rebuilt after the war: her marriage to fellow survivor Otto B Kraus, a new life in Israel and the happiness and heartbreaks of motherhood.Part of Dita's story was told in fictional form in the Sunday Times bestseller The Librarian of Auschwitz by Antonio Iturbe.

"Intricate and subtle."--Miranda France, The TelegraphIn the 1990s, deep in the Maiella mountains of Central Italy, a brutal crime shattered the peace of the local community. Two young women were murdered, a third left for dead. Lucia was twenty years old back then, and the only survivor, a childhood friend. Now Lucia is a physiotherapist, separating from her husband, her daughter Amanda studying in Milan. When the pandemic forces Amanda to return to the family''s home near Pescara, forever changed by her experiences, Lucia’s memories are reawakened, and with them the impact of past trauma. Set against the backdrop of the rugged Apennine mountains, the narrative intricately weaves Lucia and Amanda’s personal struggles with the mystery of the tragedy that marked their familial land decades earlier. Inspired by true events, The Brittle Age is a tale of individual resilience, and a commentary on the indelible impact of historical events on personal lives and the broader community.

The End. And Again is a novel about war, romance and rock ’n’ roll. It takes us back to Ljubljana and the Balkans in late 1980s and early 1990s through the reminiscences of an embittered bureaucrat Peter, a corrupt manager Goran and eternal runaway Mary. After taking a fateful bus ride, Mary once fell in love with Denis, a passionate rock musician, but their love story was tragically cut short when she, a young missionary, was ordered to leave the country for violating the Mormon code, and Denis was cast from his peaceful life in Ljubljana, exiled and sent tumbling into the ravages of the Balkan war.The main character’s memories of the years when their interests revolved more around their band, music and above all love than around the turbulent political situation that derailed their lives, intersect with those of Denis in the maelstrom of war.A lack of any meaningful resolution to their story haunts them all and forces them to search for a different end(ing). (And) Again.

One of the central texts of the Middle Ages, The Golden Legend deeply influenced the imagery of poetry, painting and stained glass with its fascinating descriptions of saints'' lives and religious festivals. By creating a single-volume sourcebook of core Christian stories, Jacobus de Voragine (c. 1229-98) attracted a huge audience across Europe. This selection of over seventy biographies ranges from the first Apostles and Roman martyrs to near-contemporaries such as St Dominic, St Francis of Assissi and St Elizabeth of Hungary. Here, witnesses to the true faith endure horrific tortures; reformed prostitutes win divine forgiveness; while other women live disguised as monks or nobly resist lustful tyrants. Lucid and compelling, The Golden Legend offers an enthralling insight into the medieval mind.

Positioned precariously between the uptight ’50s and the freewheeling ’70s, the 1960s marked a transitional decade in the film industry. As art, mass market, and pop culture merged and collided in true pop art style, cinema swirled with psychedelic energy. This handbook gathers the best films of the era, exploring the making and the mastery of such cinematic star turns as The Leopard, The Birds, Belle de Jour, A Fistful of Dollars, and Doctor Zhivago.With audiences ever more glued to their TV sets and the loosened rules about what was “permissible” in cinema with the abolition of the Production Code, filmmakers embraced the freedom to explore the possibilities of film as an art form. As was often the case, the Europeans led the way, the French with Nouvelle Vague directors like Godard and Truffaut, and the Italians with such innovative films as Fellini’s 8 1/2 and Antonioni’s Eclipse. By the mid-’60s the United States also began to exercise greater creative liberties, especially in films from young underground directors such as Russ Meyer, John Frankenheimer, and Sam Peckinpah.Meanwhile, Mary Poppins and The Sound of Music ushered out the grandiose Hollywood musical era with a bang while the Spaghetti Western became an ...
