The Mahogany Pod - Jill Hopper
“A work of literature: beautifully written, meticulously structured and heart-rending.†ObserverWhat if you knew from the beginning how your relationship was going to end? When Jill Hopper first met Arif, they were living in a shared house on the island of Osney in the River Thames. Surrounded by willow trees, birds and reflections, it was an idyllic home. But no sooner had they begun to fall in love than Arif was given the news that he had only a few months to live. Everyone told Jill to walk away, but she was already in too deep. Years later, Jill rediscovers Arif’s parting gift – an African seedpod – and finally sets out to trace the elusive patterns that shaped their relationship. The Mahogany Pod is a tender and vital account of what it means to live, and love, fully.

We the People - Lepore Jill
On the 250th anniversary of America''s founding - a landmark history of the US Constitution for a troubling new era. The US Constitution is among the oldest constitutions in the world - and one of the most difficult to amend. Although nearly twelve thousand amendments have been proposed since 1789, only twenty-seven have ever been ratified. Tellingly, the Constitution has not been meaningfully amended since 1971. Without amendment, the risk of political violence rises. So does the risk of constitutional change by presidential power. Leading Harvard historian Jill Lepore captures the stories of generations of ordinary people who have attempted everything from abolishing the Electoral College to guaranteeing environmental rights, hoping to mend their nation. Recounting the history of America through centuries of efforts to realize the promise of the Constitution, we witness how nearly all those bids have failed.We the People is the sweeping account of a struggle, arguing that the Constitution was never intended to be preserved, but was expected to be gradually altered. At a time when the risk of political violence is all too real, it hints at the prospects for a better, amended America.

Anaconda Bent Hopper Pod je stojan, který oproti konkurenci nabízí něco navíc. Anaconda Bent Hopper Pod je stojan, který oproti konkurenci nabízí něco navíc. Důležitým faktorem každého dobrého kaprařského stojanu je jeho stabilita, protože u vody můžeme často zažít situace, kdy vzhledem k ideální konstelaci dna v souvislosti s výběrem lovného místa musíme rybařit v ne úplně ideálních terénních podmínkách. Pro tyto případy je Bent Hopper vyroben z kvalitního aluminia a vybaven celou řadou praktických doplňků, jako jsou například dvě vodováhy usnadňující jeho přesné postavení. O stabilitu se stará šest vysouvacích noh. Ano, čtete správně. Tento výrobek obsahuje mimo klasickou sestavu kvarteta kratších noh i pár extra dlouhých, který rodpod v případě potřeby promění na takzvaný „skypod“. Je potřeba dát si pozor na bajonetovou fixaci, která obecně trpí při hrubém zacházení. Nechybí panoramatické hrazdy s trojicí závitů ani možnost variabilně nastavit základnu v rozmezí 70–130 cm. Dobrou zprávou jsou i kompaktní transportní rozměry 83 × 14 cm pro přepravu v pevném tubusu a přijatelná hmotnost 6,4 kg. Bent Hopper je veskrze praktický moderní stojan bytelné konstrukce s rychlou montáží i demontáží za velmi příznivou cenu s cenným bonusem v podobě páru dlouhých noh. Bude dlouho bezproblémově sloužit v každé kaprařské výbavě. Technický popis: Bent Hopper Pod je elegantní a funkční stojan.

Aby byla zaručena 100% stabilita, nainstalovali jsme do přední i zadní části vodováhu. V ceně jsou navíc dvě extra dlouhé nohy! Znamená to tedy, že jste vždy připraveni do jakýchkoliv podmínek a strmé břehy nebudou problém. V tomto modelu jsou dovedně kombinovány moderní vzhled a funkčnost. 2 x vodováha 6 noh, 2 z nich extra dlouhé 2 x 3 hrazda pro umístění 3 prutů

The Old Weird Albion - Justin Hopper
A woman stands at the edge of a cliff, looking out to sea and the horizon. Dancers welcome the sun in a circle of stones. A dowsing road turns without warning. A church bell. Footsteps.Old Weird Albion is America writer Justin Hopper''s dark love song to the English South; a poetic essay interrogating the high, haunted landscape of the South Downs Way; the memories, myths and forgotten histories from Winchester to Beachy Head.When someone disappears, when someone leaps from a cliff and is all-but-erased from memory, what traces might we find in the crumbling chalk of the cliff face; in the wind that buffets the edge of this Albion?A skewed alternative to Bill Bryson, Hopper casts himself as the outsider as he wanders the English countryside in pursuit of mystical encounters. His journey sees him joining New Age eccentrics and accidental visionaries on the hunt for crop circles and druidic stones, discussing the power of nature with ecotherapists and pagans, tracing the ruins of abandoned settlements and walking the streets of eerie suburbs.Through a startling revelation of his own family history, Hopper turns part detective, part memoirist, tracking the footsteps of his grandfather''s first wife, Doris; piecing together her forgotten history.

With the wit and verve that has made her the acclaimed national historian of a generation, Jill Lepore reflects on the consuming fissures of this era: culture wars and media corrosion; disruptive innovation and techno-utopianism; constitutional crises surrounding gun rights and a reckoning with a deep history of racial violence. These essays make sense of American life in a moment of polarization, capturing the tumultuous relationship between the country''s violent past and fractured present.Praise for Jill Lepore:''The pre-eminent historian of forgotten tales from America''s past'' David Runciman''A person can''t help but feel inspired by the riveting intelligence and joyful curiosity of Lepore'' George Saunders''Lepore writes history like a poet'' Dan Snow''Lepore is that rare combination in modern life of intellect, originality and style'' Amanda Foreman

Grace Hopper - Laurie Wallmark
“If you’ve got a good idea, and you know it’s going to work, go ahead and do it.”The inspiring story of Grace Hopper—the boundary-breaking woman who revolutionized computer science—is told told in an engaging picture book biography. Who was Grace Hopper? A software tester, workplace jester, cherished mentor, ace inventor, avid reader, naval leader—AND rule breaker, chance taker, and troublemaker. Acclaimed picture book author Laurie Wallmark (Ada Byron Lovelace and the Thinking Machine) once again tells the riveting story of a trailblazing woman. Grace Hopper coined the term “computer bug” and taught computers to “speak English.” Throughout her life, Hopper succeeded in doing what no one had ever done before. Delighting in difficult ideas and in defying expectations, the insatiably curious Hopper truly was “Amazing Grace” . . . and a role model for science- and math-minded girls and boys. With a wealth of witty quotes, and richly detailed illustrations, this book brings Hopper's incredible accomplishments to life.

I’ve been visiting my mother who died when I was eight.And I’m talking about flesh and blood, tea-and-biscuits-on-the-table visiting here. Right now, you probably think I’m going mad. Let me explain… Although Faye is happy with her life, the loss of her mother as a child weighs on her mind even more now that she is a mother herself. So she is amazed when, in an extraordinary turn of events, she finds herself back in her childhood home in the 1970s.

Hopper - Renner Rolf G.
Edward Hopper (1882–1967) is something of an American success story, if only his success had come swifter. At the age of 40, he was a failing artist who struggled to sell a single painting. As he approached 80, Time magazine featured him on its cover. Today, Hopper is considered a giant of modern expression, with an uncanny, unforgettable, and utterly distinct sense for mood and place. Much of Hopper''s work excavates modern city experience. In canvas after canvas, he depicts diners, cafes, shopfronts, street lights, gas stations, rail stations, and hotel rooms. The scenes are marked by vivid color juxtapositions and stark, theatrical lighting, as well as by harshly contoured figures, who appear at once part of, and alien to, their surroundings. The ambiance throughout his repertoire is of an eerie disquiet, alienation, loneliness and psychological tension, although his rural or coastal scenes can offer a counterpoint of tranquility or optimism. This book presents major works from Hopper''s œuvre to introduce a key player not only in American art history but also in the American psyche.

1964: Eyes of the Storm - Paul McCartney, Lepore Jill
Photographs and Reflections by Paul McCartney''Millions of eyes were suddenly upon us, creating a picture I will never forget for the rest of my life.''In 2020, an extraordinary trove of nearly a thousand photographs taken by Paul McCartney on a 35mm camera was re-discovered in his archive. They intimately record the months towards the end of 1963 and beginning of 1964 when Beatlemania erupted in the UK and, after the band''s first visit to the USA, they became the most famous people on the planet. The photographs are McCartney''s personal record of this explosive time, when he was, as he puts it, in the ''Eyes of the Storm''.1964: Eyes of the Storm presents 275 of McCartney''s photographs from the six cities of these intense, legendary months - Liverpool, London, Paris, New York, Washington, D.C. and Miami - and many never-before-seen portraits of John, George and Ringo. In his Foreword and Introductions to these city portfolios, McCartney remembers ''what else can you call it - pandemonium'' and conveys his impressions of Britain and America in 1964 - the moment when the culture changed and the Sixties really began.1964: Eyes of the Storm includes:- Six city portfolios - Liverpool, London, Paris, New York, Washington, D.C. and Miami - and a Coda on the later months of 1964 - featuring 275 of Paul McCartney''s photographs and his candid reflections on them- A Foreword by Paul McCartney- Beatleland, an Introduction by Harvard historian and New Yorker essayist Jill Lepore- A Preface by Nicholas Cullinan, Director of the National Portrait Gallery, London, and Another Lens, an essay by Senior Curator Rosie Broadley

The Bible With And Without Jesus - Amy-Jill Levine, Marc Zvi Brettler
The editors of The Jewish Annotated New Testament show how and why Jews and Christians read many of the same Biblical texts – including passages from the Pentateuch, the Prophets, and the Psalms – differently. Exploring and explaining these diverse perspectives, they reveal more clearly Scripture’s beauty and power. Esteemed Bible scholars and teachers Amy-Jill Levine and Marc Z. Brettler take readers on a guided tour of the most popular Hebrew Bible passages quoted in the New Testament to show what the texts meant in their original contexts and then how Jews and Christians, over time, understood those same texts. Passages include the creation of the world, the role of Adam and Eve, the Suffering Servant of Isiah, the book of Jonah, and Psalm 22, whose words, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me,” Jesus quotes as he dies on the cross. Comparing various interpretations – historical, literary, and theological - of each ancient text, Levine and Brettler offer deeper understandings of the original narratives and their many afterlives. They show how the text speaks to different generations under changed circumstances, and so illuminate the Bible’s ongoing significance. By understanding the depth and variety by which these passages have been, and can be, understood, The Bible With and Without Jesus does more than enhance our religious understandings, it helps us to see the Bible as a source of inspiration for any and all readers.
