the nibelungenlied cyril edwards

In ancient tales many marvels are told us ... now you may hear such marvels told! The greatest of the heroic epics to emerge from medieval Germany, the Nibelungenlied is a revenge saga of sweeping dimensions. It tells of the dragon-slayer Sivrit, and the mysterious kingdom of the Nibelungs with its priceless treasure-hoard guarded by dwarves and giants, of Prünhilt the Amazonian queen, fortune-telling water-sprites and a cloak of invisibility. Driven by the conflict between Kriemhilt, the innocent maiden turned she-devil, and her antagonist, the stoic, indomitable Hagen, the story is one of human tragedy, of love, jealousy, murder, and revenge, ending in slaughter on a horrific scale. The work of an anonymous poet of c.1200, since its rediscovery in the eighteenth century the Nibelungenlied has come to be regarded as the national epic of the Germans. It has inspired countless reworkings and adaptations, including two masterpieces: Fritz Lang s two-part film, and Richard Wagner s Ring cycle. This is the first prose translation for over forty years: accurate and compelling, it is accompanied by a wealth of useful background information.

It is sad but true that no one is ever pleased to see Cyril the cloud. He s always being blamed for ruining everyone s fun: casting shadows over everywhere he goes, and making things look dull and miserable. So, one day, Cyril drifts far, far away in search of a friendly face: over farmland, towns, and an ocean . . . Eventually he arrives in a new land whose ground is baking hot. Here everyone welcomes the shade Cyril gives. This makes Cyril so happy that he cries big glorious tears of joy. And his tears soak the land and everything seems to smile. And that is all Cyril ever wanted - to look down on the world and see a happy smile. A beautiful story that taps right into what Tim Hopgood s books are all about: celebrating the natural world and promoting a positive outlook on life.

A new interpretation of the American Revolution as a transformative monetary contestAmerican money and American democracy have always been in tension, pitting political equality against economic inequality. In Money and the Making of the American Revolution, Andrew Edwards shows how this struggle emerged in America’s founding era. Everyone knows that the founders waged a revolt against taxation without representation. Edwards shows that the dispute over taxes was really a dispute over money: what it was, who could make it, and how to keep it from being used at the expense of the colonists in North America. The colonial rebels refocused their resistance on democratic, local control—defending the power they had used to make money for themselves.Edwards’s narrative spans four continents, linking the problems of money and revolt in early America to the transatlantic slave trade, the disastrous mismanagement of the East India Company in India, and violence against Native Americans. His analysis emerges from the story itself, through the lives of individuals ranging from John Blackwell, Oliver Cromwell s one-time war treasurer, to Thomas Paine, the impassioned pamphleteer of the American Revolution. Edwards argues that as the republican vision of an agrarian, independent monetary system faded, the leaders of the Revolution tied the nation to capitalism and imperialism at its founding. The colonists may have won the battle for representation, but the money that underpinned European empire had established a stronghold in the new republic. Money and the Making of the American Revolution offers both an ambitious new interpretation of the Revolution and a fascinating story about the power of economic ideas.

The Christ-centered exegesis of Jonathan Edwards Jonathan Edwards is remembered for his sermons and works of theology and philosophy-but he has been overlooked as an exegete. Gilsun Ryu s The Federal Theology of Jonathan Edwards explores how exegesis drove Edwards s focus on the headship of Christ as second Adam-and likewise formed a foundation for his broader theological reasoning and writing, especially on Christ and the covenants. Edwards s distinctive emphases on exegesis, redemptive history, and the harmony of Scripture distinguish him from his Reformed forebears. Ryu s study will help readers appreciate Edwards s contribution as an exegetically informed Reformed theologian --

In this fully illustrated introduction, acclaimed historian Dr Aaron Edwards provides a concise overview of one of the most difficult and controversial actions in recent history.Spanning 38 years of the â ˜Troublesâ ™, the British Armyâ ™s deployment in Northern Ireland (codenamed Operation Banner) was one of the most difficult and controversial in its recent history. Over 10,000 troops were on active service during much of the campaign, which saw armoured vehicles, helicopters and special forces deployed onto the streets of Ulster. In this book, Dr Aaron Edwards considers the strategic, operational and tactical aspects of Operation Banner, as the Armyâ ™s military objectives morphed from high-profile peacekeeping into a covert war against the IRA. Using personal testimony from both sides of the sectarian divide, as well as insights from the soldiers themselves, he presents an authoritative introduction to the Armyâ ™s role in the Troubles, providing expert analysis of Operation Bannerâ ™s successes and failures.Updated and revised for the new edition, with full-colour maps and 50 new images, this is an accessible introduction to the complicated yet fascinating history of modern Britainâ ˜s longest military campaign.

This is the definitive story of the case against Jeffrey Epstein and the corrupt system that supported him and Ghislaine Maxwell, told in thrilling detail by the lawyer who has represented Epstein’s victims for more than a decade. In June 2008, Florida-based victims’ rights attorney Bradley J. Edwards was thirty-two years old and had just started his own law firm when a young woman named Courtney Wild came to see him. She told a shocking story of having been sexually coerced at the age of fourteen by a wealthy man in Palm Beach named Jeffrey Epstein. Edwards, who had never heard of Epstein, had no idea that this moment would change the course of his life. Over the next ten years, Edwards devoted himself to bringing Epstein to justice, and came close to losing everything in the process. Edwards tracked down and represented more than twenty of Epstein’s victims, and shined a light on his network of contacts and friends, among them Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Ghislaine Maxwell and Prince Andrew. Edwards gives his riveting, blow-by-blow account of battling Epstein on behalf of his clients, and provides stunning details never shared before. He explains how he followed Epstein’s criminal enterprise from Florida, to New York, to Europe, to a Caribbean island, and, in the process, became the one person Epstein most feared could take him down. Epstein and his cadre of high-priced lawyers were able to manipulate the FBI and the Justice Department, but, despite making threats and attempting schemes straight out of a spy movie, Epstein couldn’t stop Edwards, his small team of committed lawyers and, most of all, the victims, who were dead-set on seeing their abuser finally put behind bars.This is the definitive account of the Epstein saga, personally told by the gutsy lawyer who took on one of the most brazen sexual criminals in the history of the US, and exposed the corrupt system that let him get away with it for far too long.

Proglas - najstaršia slovanská literárna pamiatka sa vyníma ako výnimočné dielo vysokej literárnej a duchovnej hodnoty. Za jeho literárnymi kvalitami sa skrýva v prvom rade hlboký duchovný odkaz. Ak dnes laický svet hovorí o neprekonateľnej priepasti medzi vierou a náboženstvom na jednej strane a rozumom, či vedou na druhej strane, teda o akoby neprekonateľnom konflikte medzi fides et ratio, sv. Cyril práve naopak videl vo vede, predovšetkým v takom poznávaní, ktoré privádza dušu k múdrosti, uskutočňovanie Božieho plánu o človeku. Túto výzvu na harmóniu medzi rozumom a vierou obsahuje už Proglas, ktorý ich nestavia do protikladu, ale vyzýva k vzájomnej službe. Text obsahuje ako prepis pôvodného textu v pôvodnej písomnej podobe, tak i preklad do slovenčiny, čím je dielo vhodné pre záujemcov o dejiny či jazykovedu, nie iba pre náboženské účely. Ide o exkluzívnu publikáciu, obohatenú o reprodukcie najstarších fresiek ochridských cirkví, ako aj cirkví v Kurbinove a Slivnici, na ktorých sú zobrazení sv. Cyril a sv. Metod, ich žiaci sv. Kliment, sv. Naum, sv. Gorazd, sv. Sava a sv. Angelarij. Fundovanými textami prispeli Cyril Vasiľ, Viliam Turčány, vladyka Stefan, Viliam Judák, Teodor Križka, Matúš Kučera a zostavovateľ Stojan Lekoski. Vychádzajú po prvýkrát spolu v slovenskom a macedónskom jazyku v roku 1150. výročia začiatku činnosti slovanských vierozvestov na Veľkej Morave. Druhé, doplnené vydanie vydalo Vydavateľstvo Spolku slovenských spisovateľov v spolupráci so Slovenskou národnou knižnicou.

Audiokniha: Malý princ a Slovácko? Ba! Malý princ se po Brně, Valašsku a Krkonoších vydává i na Slovácko! Malušenký princ, co už obleťél celú našu planétu, přistál včíl na Slovácku. Ale né doopravdicky, to šak sami víte, ale tot ve vašich rukách! Ale mosíte s ním opatrňučko, jak s malovaným vajcem, a né že vám ho děcka počářú a lebo naň postavíte prutvan s hodovú kačenú. S malušenkým princem sa mosí, jagdyž medu ulizuje, a dyž ho k sobě pustíte na besedu, možete s ním zažit nejednu pěknú chvílu. A že ste si mysleli, že už dobře znáte? Tož to ste sa pomýlili! Kultovní kniha francouzského spisovatele a pilota Antoina de Saint-Exupéryho byla přeložena do více než 350 jazyků a dialektů. Každý ji zná. Vášnivá sběratelka knižních vydání Malého prince Martina Dlabajová si dlouho lámala hlavu tím, jak něžný příběh převést také do svérázného Slovácka. V její práci jí pomohli překladatelé Cyril Škarnétka a Francka Kubíkova. Nyní je k dispozici i v audioverzi. Poslechnou si nejen lidé ze Slovácka. Laik se přiučí místnímu nářečí, odborník znásobí své znalosti a všichni získají nový pohled na známý příběh z nezvyklé perspektivy. Cyril Škarnétka (* 1987) bývá na výměnku ve velice pěknej dědině, kde majú rádi béleše. Je dob­rák od kosti, a dyž už vám tá golozňá neslúží jak za mlada, može vám ju trochu provětrat. Tož si ho zavolaj­te, třeba si negdy zpomene aj dojet (lebo je to s ním trochu jak s kovářo­vú kobylú). Dyž sa mu poščestí, vydá se na púť aj do púšče lebo za polární kruh, a aby ho bylo poznat, dycky si obleče nedělní šaty aj s holénkama pěkně vyglančenýma. Tam, gde bývá Francka Kubíkova (* 1984), dostane sa kúpit ten najlepší salát (ale né pařížšký!). Francka sa robí velice múdrá a furt zkúmá, jak to bylo indová a jak je to aj včíl. Sem tam sa umí vystrkovat na pódiách, kde ju možete čut vyzpěvovat a lebo aj sa maškařit v tragédiách a komédiách Škrrrk do rži. Sem tam je Fana také velká světoběžnica a doma sa nezehřeje ani chvílu. Antoine de Saint-Exupéry byl francouzský spisovatel a letec. Narodil se v roce 1900 v Lyonu a již od dětství byl fascinován světem letadel. Jako pilot byl zaměstnán u vícero leteckých společností a létal na různých linkách. Své zážitky a zkušenosti přetavil do několika poutavých literárních děl. Po začátku 2. světové války nastoupil do vojenské služby v hodnosti kapitána na letišti v Toulouse. Podle svědků byl jedním z nejodvážnějších. Tragicky zahynul v červenci 1944 během letu z Korsiky, trosky letadla byly nalezeny v roce 2000 ve Středozemním moři poblíž Marseille. Jitka Hlaváčová absolvovala hudebně dramatický obor na brněnské Konzervatoři. Ihned po jejím ukončení v roce 2001 nastoupila do Slováckého divadla v Uherském Hradišti, kde je dodnes stálou členkou hereckého souboru. Vytvořila nespočet rolí, za které získala řadu ocenění i u odborné veřejnosti (nominace na Thálii v roce 2005, 2007 a 2020, Cenu Alfreda Radoka, Cenu České divadlo, cena za nejlepší ženský herecký výkon roku 2005 a 2007 v anketě portálu i-divadlo.cz, nominace na Cenu Divadelních novin a Sazky, získala několik regionálních ocenění Slovácký Oskar a cenu kritiků Největší z pierotů).

I Was There tells you how Jon Savage A beautiful, warm, jaw-dropping, once-in-a-lifetime, lifting-the-stone guide to a secret world . . . I loved it Tony Parsons Revelatory Will Hodgkinson, The Times Gossipy, insightful and a whole lot of fun Neil McCormick, Daily Telegraph An absorbing read . . . Raw, warm and packed with incident Barbara Ellen, ObserverAlan Edwards, the godfather of British music PR, has worked with some of the most legendary artists of our time, from David Bowie to the Spice Girls via the Rolling Stones, the Stranglers, Prince and Amy Winehouse. In I Was There, he describes getting his break in the mid- 70s as a scruffy, stoned 20-year-old just back from the hippie trail; his encounter with London s thriving punk scene, which inspired him to set up his own PR company; broadening his horizons as his work with the likes of Blondie takes him to the US and beyond; and his move into the world of pop with the Spice Girls during the tabloid-crazed 90s. At the centre of this story sits the defining relationship of Edwards career: his close, thirty-year collaboration with David Bowie. He guides us through a series of vivid, funny, always insightful behind-the-scenes reports, whether he s playing a spontaneous game of football with Bob Marley, listening to Prince discuss the future of civilisation in a nightclub VIP area, or being used as a pawn in the power struggle between Mick Jagger and Keith Richards. Above all, we re treated to Edwards fascinating observations about the brilliant artists he has worked with and what makes them tick, as he looks back on his role in the last five decades of music and culture.

Discover all there is to know about the Renaissance, the period in history that took Europe from the Middle Ages to modern times!Beginning in Italy, the Renaissance was a cultural movement that spread throughout Europe and affected art, science, technology, politics, and thought. From the 1300s to the beginning of the 1600s, scholars started to question what they knew and looked to literature and historical texts to develop new ideas for why things were the way they were. In just a short amount of time, the foundations for European life were uprooted and examined, leading people, including Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo, to explore new ways of thinking and being. Readers will learn why the Renaissance was such a pivotal time in European history and how it still influences us.

Since the beginning of humanity s existence, plants have provided us with everything we need for our survival - they sustain us with air to breathe, food to eat, materials to make clothes and shelter with, and medicine to treat and prevent disease. Their beauty can also enhance our mood and provide spiritual and emotional nourishment.Western science has discovered and named innumerable plant species over the course of its colonial history. To many Indigenous peoples, however, plants have been recognised for centuries as sentient beings, imbued with spirit and agency to help humanity. Publishing in partnership with the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew, The Ethnobotanical offers a unique and beautiful perspective on plants and their roles in the lives of peoples from across the planet.
