Uprchlíci - Clemmensen Jesper - e-kniha

eBook: Dramatická cesta dvou československých rodin za svobodou | V neděli 24. června 1960 skočil Jan Roček s manželkou, tchyní a dvěma malými syny z paluby východoněmecké výletní lodi do vod přístavu v dánském Gedseru. O den později stejný kousek zopakovali jejich dobří přátelé. Po dlouhých letech nejprve nacistického a potom komunistického útlaku se dvě židovské rodiny z východní Evropy konečně dostaly na svobodu. Kniha Uprchlíci je neuvěřitelným příběhem lidí, kteří prošli Terezínem a byli svědky nacistických zvěrstev páchaných ve vyhlazovacím táboře v Osvětimi. Po válce zůstali uvězněni za železnou oponou v Československu pod nadvládou komunistických mocipánů, až později přes východní Německo konečně uprchli do svobodného světa. Uprchlíci jsou zhmotněním historie 20. století a příběh těchto lidí je cenný především tím, že nám ukazuje, jak nezlomná touha po lidské důstojnosti dokázala překonat řádění dvou totalitních režimů i vlastní strach a po mnoha útrapách nalézt cestu ke svobodě. Kniha vznikla na základě rozhovorů s pamětníky – mimo jiné s Janem Ročkem, který žije ve Spojených státech – a rešerší zejména v dánských, východoněmeckých a československých archivech.

eBook: Evropské neonacistické hnutí se ze své ideologické podstaty staví negativně vůči globalizaci a mezinárodní migraci. Přesto samo těchto fenoménů využívá k sjednocování se na evropské a celosvětové úrovni ve snaze vytvořit jednotné hnutí, které bude schopné prosadit vlastní ideologii. V Evropě pozorujeme výrazné posilování mezinárodních vazeb mezi neonacisty z jednotlivých zemí, posilování vzájemných kontaktů a narůstající počet aktivit s mezinárodní účastí. Viditelné je rychlé šíření se jednotlivých konceptů a strategií a upevňování společné ideologie nacionálního socialismu s velmi jasnou vizí bílé Evropy. Cílem této publikace je analyzovat transnacionalizaci neonacistického hnutí, a to z perspektivy českých neonacistů. Publikace nabízí vhled do představy neonacistického hnutí o Evropě, představuje ideologii sjednocující jednotlivá národní neonacistická hnutí. Také představuje neonacistické koncepty a strategie jako příklady transnacionalizace. Dále identifikuje formy konkrétních aktivit mezinárodní spolupráce.

From Syntax to Text: the Janus Face of Functional Sentence Perspective - Libuše Dušková - e-kniha

eBook: The volume presents the author’s articles written in the last fifteen years, dealing with the interaction between syntax, functional sentence perspective (information structure) and text in present-day English. It is divided into five parts, I Syntactic Constancy, II Syntax FSP Interface, III FSP and Semantics, IV Syntax, FSP, Text and V Style, which reveal the two facets of functional sentence perspective: syntactic structures as realization forms of the carriers of FSP functions, and the connection of FSP with the level of text. The first and the last two parts frame the content of the volume in treating the role of functional sentence perspective at the syntactic and the textual levels. At the former, FSP is investigated as a potential factor of syntactic divergence between English and Czech, at the latter the role of FSP is examined with respect to theme development, text build-up and style. The points discussed in the other parts concern, among others, the hierarchical relationship between syntax and FSP, the question of potentiality in FSP structure, different realization forms of FSP structure and FSP functions, general and specific questions of word order, with major attention paid to the role of semantics.

Hood Feminism: Notes from the Women White Feminists Forgot (152662270X)

Kniha - autor Mikki Kendall, 288 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná All too often the focus of mainstream feminism is not on basic survival for the many, but on increasing privilege for the few. Meeting basic needs is a feminist issue. Food insecurity, the living wage and access to education are feminist issues. The fight against racism, ableism and transmisogyny are all feminist issues. White feminists often fail to see how race, class, sexual orientation and disability intersect with gender. How can feminists stand in solidarity as a movement when there is a distinct likelihood that some women are oppressing others? Insightful, incendiary and ultimately hopeful, Hood Feminism is both an irrefutable indictment of a movement in flux and also clear-eyed assessment of how to save it.

Man´s Search for Meaning: the Classic Tribute to Hope From the Holocaust - Viktor E. Frankl

9 MILLION COPIES SOLD'A book to read, to cherish, to debate, and one that will ultimately keep the memories of the victims alive' John Boyne, author of The Boy in the Striped PyjamasA prominent Viennese psychiatrist before the war, Viktor Frankl was uniquely able to observe the way that both he and others in Auschwitz coped (or didn't) with the experience. He noticed that it was the men who comforted others and who gave away their last piece of bread who survived the longest - and who offered proof that everything can be taken away from us except the ability to choose our attitude in any given set of circumstances. The sort of person the concentration camp prisoner became was the result of an inner decision and not of camp influences alone. Frankl came to believe man's deepest desire is to search for meaning and purpose. This outstanding work offers us all a way to transcend suffering and find significance in the art of living.

In the Shadow of Munich. British Policy towards Czechoslovakia from 1938 to 1942 - Vít Smetana - e-kniha

eBook: Práce In the Shadow of Munich. British Policy towards Czechoslovakia from the Endorsement to the Renunciation of the Munich Agreement (1938 to 1942) [Ve stínu Mnichova. Britská politika vůči Československu od přijetí do oduznání Mnichovské dohody (1938-42)] sleduje rozdílné přístupy a postupné proměňování britské politiky vůči Československu v době od mnichovské konference v září 1938 do britského prohlášení ze srpna 1942, že Mnichovská dohoda nebude mít jakýkoli vliv na budoucí teritoriální uspořádání. Klíčovým tématem práce je přitom vliv Mnichova na britskou politickou scénu a na následnou britskou politiku vůči Československu ve středoevropském kontextu a také jeho rezonance v jednáních s československými exilovými představiteli. Práce je výsledkem autorova mnohaletého výzkumu zejména v britských archivech, doplněného o materiály z archivů českých, a rovněž reflexe rozsáhlého množství pramenných edic, deníků a memoárové a odborné literatury. Snaží se přitom rozptýlit řadu mýtů a stereotypů, v jejichž zajetí zůstává dosavadní česká a zčásti též anglofonní historiografie při interpretaci britské politiky vůči Československu bezprostředně před 2. světovou válkou a v jejím průběhu.

Biologie v pěti lekcích - Paul Nurse - e-kniha

eBook: Otázku po původu a podstatě života si lidé pokládali odnepaměti, ale odpověď na ni se po většinu historie nesla v duchu domněnek a více či méně podložených spekulací. S rozvojem genetiky, evoluční, molekulární a buněčné biologie ale vědci získali nové nástroje, které jim umožnily hledat odpověď na tyto věčné otázky přímo na hranicích mezi živým a neživým a dovolily jim zkoumat nejzákladnější rysy, které činí život životem. Pokrok, jehož jsme na tomto poli dosáhli, se ve své populárně-naučné knize rozhodl přiblížit britský genetik a nositel Nobelovy ceny Paul Nurse, který se po schodech vybudovaných z pěti základních myšlenek biologie pokouší vystoupat až na vrchol a zodpovědět kardinální otázku: Co je život? Cílem jeho stručného a zároveň hlubokého pojednání protkaného řadou osobních vzpomínek není seznámit čtenáře pouze s některými nejnovějšími biologickými poznatky, nýbrž i s fungováním samotné vědy a výzkumu. Nurse se svou knihou zároveň snaží poukázat na to, jak je pozemský život úchvatný, jedinečný a provázaný, což by nás mělo přimět, abychom si jej vážili, pečovali o něj a nepřehlíželi problémy, jimž i kvůli nám čelí.Vychází ve spolupráci s nakladatelstvím Argo.
