The New Media Epidemic - Jean-Claude Larchet, Archibald Andrew Torrance
Dr. Jean-Claude Larchet, renowned for his examinations of the causes and consequences of spiritual and physical illness, tackles the pressing question of the societal and personal effects of our societal use of new media. The definition of new media is broad—from radio to smart phones—and the analysis of their impact is honest and straightforward. His meticulous diagnosis of their effects concludes with a discussion of the ways individuals might limit and counteract the most deleterious effects of this new epidemic.

The Spiritual Roots of the Ecological Crisis - Jean-Claude Larchet
Many Christians are tempted to dismiss concerns over the environment and the catastrophic effects of climate change. After all, prominent voices who most vociferously warn us about this crisis tend to also advocate a wider worldview antithetical to Christian teachings. In this text, noted philosopher and scholar Jean-Claude Larchet finds the roots of the global ecological crisis in a rejection of a truly Christian cosmology. Explaining the relationship between man and nature ordained by God in the beginning, Larchet bases the degradation of the creation ultimately in the primordial fall and outlines how we have arrived at the present crisis point. Finally, the author proposes principles and actions deeply rooted in his Christian ethos that would allow mankind to restore and reinvigorate its relationship with nature.

What Is Theology - Jean-Claude Larchet
Orthodox theology is intimately linked to spiritual experience:it has a very different meaning to the present usage of this word coming from academia. The scientific methods developed in the West since the seventeenth century can of of benefit in many regards, but without strong roots in the Orthodox tradition theology risks being "eaten up" by the human sciences.These roots are in the mystical tradition of the Church as passed down from the the beginning and expressed in the lives of saints, iconography etc. Thus this work has both a theoretical and a practical scope, of relevance to all Christians.

The Fall - Albert Camus
''An irresistibly brilliant examination of modern conscience'' The New York Times Jean-Baptiste Clamence is a soul in turmoil. Over several drunken nights in an Amsterdam bar, he regales a chance acquaintance with his story. From this successful former lawyer and seemingly model citizen a compelling, self-loathing catalogue of guilt, hypocrisy and alienation pours forth. The Fall (1956) is a brilliant portrayal of a man who has glimpsed the hollowness of his existence. But beyond depicting one man''s disillusionment, Camus''s novel exposes the universal human condition and its absurdities - for our innocence that, once lost, can never be recaptured ...''Camus is the accused, his own prosecutor and advocate.

The Most Precious of Cargoes - Jean-Claude Grumberg
A haunting fable that tells a story of the Holocaust, and the remarkable acts of kindness which people are capable of.'A magnificent small book to read urgently' – LibérationOnce upon a time in an enormous forest there lived a poor woodcutter and his wife. Around them a war wages, and hunger is a constant companion. Yet every night, the woodcutter's wife prays for a child.On a train crossing the forest, a Jewish father holds his twin children. His wife no longer has enough milk to feed them. In hopes of saving both their lives, he wraps his daughter in a shawl and gently throws her from the train.While foraging for food, the woodcutter’s wife finds a bundle, a baby girl wrapped in a shawl. She knows that this little girl will be pursued, but she cannot ignore this gift: she will accept the precious cargo, and raise her as her own. . .Set against the horrors of the Holocaust and told in a fairytale style, Jean-Claude Grumberg’s The Most Precious of Cargoes is a deeply moving fable about family and redemption.

Drahý příteli - Anne-Laure Bondouxová, Jean-Claude Mourlevat
Pierre-Marie Sotto je slavný, u čtenářů úspěšný a kritikou oceňovaný spisovatel. Je to ale také stárnoucí, osamělý muž, a pokud jde o jeho práci - momentálně je v hluboké tvůrčí krizi. Jednoho dne k němu dorazí objemná obálka bez zpáteční adresy; jediný kontakt na ní uvedený je e-mailová adresa jisté Adeline Parmelanové. Sotto nepochybuje, že mu nějaká "nadějná spisovatelka" posílá k posouzení svůj rukopis. Obálku neotevře, odesílatelku zdvořile odmítne a požádá ji o adresu, kam by mohl zásilku vrátit. Než mu Adeline vyhoví, vymění si spolu několik e-mailů, které jsou natolik vtipné a zajímavé, že v dopisování pokračují a objemná obálka zůstává (na žádost Adeline) ležet neotevřená na Sottově polici. Jenomže je v tom háček… Anne-Laure Bondouxová (*1971) vystudovala moderní literaturu a poté začala psát zejména pro děti v těžké životní situaci; pro ně také založila úspěšnou dílnu tvůrčího psaní.

The New Puritans - Andrew Doyle
''A sober but devastating skewering of cancel culture and the moral certainties it shares with religious fundamentalism'' Sunday Times Engaging, incisive and acute, The New Puritans is a deeply necessary exploration of our current cultural climate and an urgent appeal to return to a truly liberal society. The puritans of the seventeenth century sought to refashion society in accordance with their own beliefs, but they were deep thinkers who were aware of their own fallibility. Today, in the grasp of the new puritans, we see a very different story. Leading a cultural revolution driven by identity politics and so-called ''social justice'', the new puritanism movement is best understood as a religion - one that makes grand claims to moral purity and tolerates no dissent. Its disciples even have their own language, rituals and a determination to root out sinners through what has become known as ''cancel culture''. In The New Puritans, Andrew Doyle powerfully examines the underlying belief-systems of this ideology, and how it has risen so rapidly to dominate all major political, cultural and corporate institutions. He reasons that, to move forward, we need to understand where these new puritans came from and what they hope to achieve. Written ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Když se mladý ježek Jefferson vypraví do svého oblíbeného holičství, aby si dal zarovnat frizúru, netuší, že se jeho život v jediné minutě obrátí vzhůru nohama. To, co zatím znal jen z dobrodružných románů, se stane skutečností. Je nespravedlivě obviněn z vraždy, musí se skrývat a pak pátrat po stopách skutečného viníka, které ho zavedou až do země lidí. Naštěstí má dobré přátele a rozum v hrsti. V této strhující a zároveň humorné detektivce, kterou oblíbený autor velkých příběhů Jean-Claude Mourlevat věnoval svým dětem, se čtenáři neformálně dozvídají o podivných lidských praktikách, které nejsou ke zvířecímu světu zrovna spravedlivé, o tom, jak mnoho zmůže síla přátelství, i o tom, že nejlíp si poradí ten, kdo je pevně rozhodnut potřít nespravedlnost a má pro strach uděláno!

Řeka, která teče pozpátku - Jean-Claude Mourlevat, Jindřich Janíček
Románový příběh dvou osamělých dětí. Tomek má jediného přítele, starého moudrého vesnického písaře, Hannah miluje svého žlutomodře zbarveného ptáčka, jedinou památku na zemřelého otce. Ti dva se nakrátko setkají v Tomkově krámku, kde chce Hannah koupit živou vodu z řeky Kžar… Tak začíná Tomkovo hledání řeky Kžar, a hlavně tajemné Hannah, která mu stále uniká. Moderní příběh čerpá z odvěkých zdrojů, ale i z dětské touhy po dobrodružství, mořích, pouštích, přátelství a lásce. Najdou se dvě dospívající děti? A co všechno jejich shledání předcházelo? Jean-Claude Mourlevat, původním povoláním učitel a divadelník, je jedním z nejzajímavějších autorů pro děti a mládež v současné Francii: inspiraci ke svým příběhům často čerpá z pohádkové mytologie, vypráví je však živě a současně.

Claudius the God - Robert Graves
Continuing the saga begun in I, Claudius, Robert Graves's Claudius the God is a compelling fictional autobiography of the Roman emperor, published with an introduction by Barry Unsworth in Penguin Modern Classics. Claudius has survived the murderous intrigues of his predecessors to become, reluctantly, Emperor of Rome. Here he recounts his surprisingly successful reign: how he cultivates the loyalty of the army and the common people to repair the damage caused by Caligula; his relations with the Jewish King Herod Agrippa; and his invasion of Britain.But the growing paranoia of absolute power and the infidelity of his promiscuous young wife Messalina mean that his good fortune will not last forever. In this second part of Robert Graves's fictionalized autobiography, Claudius - wry, rueful, always inquisitive - brings to life some of the most scandalous and violent times in history. If you enjoyed Claudius the God, you might like Marguerite Yourcenar's Memoirs of Hadrian, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.'I, Claudius and Claudius the God are an imaginative and hugely readable account of the early decades of the Roman Empire ... racy, inventive, often comic'Daily Telegraph'One of the really remarkable books of our day, a novel of learning and imagination, fortunately ...

Bunuel procitá - Jean-Claude Carriere
Jean-Claude Carriere v knize Bunuel procitá dává slovo svému někdejšímu kolegovi a spolutvůrci. Jde o hypotetický, posmrtný rozhovor, v němž Luis Bunuel (1900–1983) sice promlouvá ze záhrobí, nicméně velmi autenticky: hovoří o filmu, o surrealismu, o osobním i veřejném životě. Množství dosud neznámých vzpomínek a epizodických příběhů představuje Bunuela jako umělce i člověka, odkrývá způsob jeho uvažování, vyzdvihuje jeho smysl pro humor. Kniha nabízí poučený vhled do zákulisí filmového umění, ale tím, že je koncipována v podobě rozhovoru, dostává i zcela intimní rozměr. Poutavě napsaný text vykresluje informačně bohatý, fundovaný portrét Luise Bunuela, osobnosti, jež se řadí do světového kánonu filmu.

Robert Doisneau. Paris - Jean Claude Gautrand
As sensitive to human suffering as to the simple pleasures of life, Robert Doisneau is one of the most celebrated exponents of the Photographie humaniste that swept through the 1950s. Cherished in particular for his soulful portraits of Paris, Doisneau demonstrated a unique ability to find – and perfectly frame – charismatic characters, entertaining episodes, and fleeting moments of humor and affection. A summation of a spectacular career, this extensive Doisneau collection includes all his best-loved images from Paris alongside many lesser-known compositions which equally rejoice in “the ordinary gestures of ordinary people in ordinary situations.” The many quotations from the photographer throughout the volume immerse the reader in Doisneau’s thoughts and give verbal expression to the sensitivity, warmth, and wit which characterize his pictures.Through the images, we are transported to the grim suburbs of Doisneau’s youth; the world of manual labor whose nobility he so admired; and to the studios of the many groundbreaking artists that Doisneau captured in moments of reflection and creativity.

America's War for the Greater Middle East - Andrew J. Bacevich
LONGLISTED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD • A searing reassessment of U.S. military policy in the Middle East over the past four decades from retired army colonel and New York Times bestselling author Andrew J. Bacevich, with a new afterword by the author From the end of World War II until 1980, virtually no American soldiers were killed in action while serving in the Greater Middle East. Since 1990, virtually no American soldiers have been killed in action anywhere else. What caused this shift? Andrew J. Bacevich, one of the country’s most respected voices on foreign affairs, offers an incisive critical history of this ongoing military enterprise—now more than thirty years old and with no end in sight. During the 1980s, Bacevich argues, a great transition occurred. As the Cold War wound down, the United States initiated a new conflict—a War for the Greater Middle East—that continues to the present day. The long twilight struggle with the Soviet Union had involved only occasional and sporadic fighting. But as this new war unfolded, hostilities became persistent. From the Balkans and East Africa to the Persian Gulf and Central Asia, U.S. forces embarked upon a seemingly endless series of campaigns across the ... Unknown localization key: "more"

A History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom - Andrew Dickson White
Andrew Dickson White, a founding member of Cornell University, released A History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom in two volumes in 1896. The original purpose of White's 1874 lecture on The Battlefields of Science is stated in the introduction. White expanded on this idea in a book titled The Warfare of Science that same year. He traces the growing separation of science from theology in numerous domains in these books. According to science historian Lawrence M. Principe, "No credible historians of science now continue to support the warfare thesis... The foundations of the warfare thesis may be found in the writings of two persons, John William Draper and Andrew Dickson White, from the late 19th century. Scientists have known for years that White and Draper's claims are more propaganda than history, according to science historian and atheist Ronald Numbers, who wrote in a collection about errors committed by White and others. The "battle" paradigm was based on a terrible oversimplification that required all facets of the history of science and religion to fit into one ill-chosen conceptual box. As a result, many scholars ignored the vast amount of historical information that simply didn't fit into that ... Unknown localization key: "more"
