The Benediktines and Central Europe: Christianity, culture, society 800-1300 (978-80-7422-463-8)
Kniha - 432 stran, anglicky, pevná s přebalem lesklá This book is the work of more than thirty medievalists from the Czech Republic and abroad, who offer in their chapters a broad spectrum of views of Benedictinism as a phenomenon, which has co-shaped the history of Europe for almost a millennium and a half. Its traces are evident in European education and culture, in important buildings, volumes of exceptional written monuments, in collections of liturgical objects, in monuments of sculpture and painting. The Benedictines have distinctly shaped the formation of medieval society for which they preserved much from the lost civilization of antiquity. They participated in the Christianization of European societies and in the creation of their states. In this sense, the Benedictines were at the birth of Europe – our physical and spiritual home today.

Ono samo se to (Kristina Hlaváčková-Vanda Hybnerová) (MP3-CD)
Audiokniha od autora: Kristina Hlaváčková, čte: Vanda Hybnerová. Celková stopáž: 4 hodiny, 36 minut. Když se vše, co se může pokazit, pokazí. Komické příběhy ze života s Vandou Hybnerovou. Praštěné historky, u kterých budete slzet smíchy. Zvuková verze úspěšné knihy, vydané nakladatelstvím Grada pod značkou Cosmopolis. Legrační historky psané životem jedné trochu praštěné mladé autorky. Máte občas pocit, že si z vás vesmír utahuje? Chcete se od srdce zasmát a na cizí účet obzvlášť? Přes veškerou její snahu procházet životem jako nenápadná seriózní osoba, téhle autorce se dějou věci. No dobře, tak je spíš komickou figurkou, co na sebe poutá pozornost svými eskapádami. Ale nemůže za to. Vážně. Ono samo se to… tak nějak. Co se může, to se podělá. Ono se teda většinou podělá i to, co se podělat nemůže. Hlavní je, brát to s humorem.Co jiného taky s tím, když vám lezou medvědi do stanu, lepí se na vás zvířátka všeho druhu a různého počtu nohou a na chlapy a seznamování s nimi máte vážně "speciální talent", o který nikdo nestojí. Kristina Hlaváčková je opravdový magnet na maléry. O svých karambolech na české chalupě, za volantem, pracovním stolem nebo třeba při cestách na Aljašku a do Austrálie vypráví s humorem a vtipem, u kterého si možná i popláčete smíchy. S interpretkou audioknihy Vandou Hybnerovou našly víc než společnou řeč a není to jen tím, že jsou vzdálené příbuzné.

Daring Greatly: How the Courage to be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love, Parent, and Lead (0241257409)
Kniha - autor Brene Brown, 288 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná Every time we are introduced to someone new, try to be creative, or start a difficult conversation, we take a risk. We feel uncertain and exposed. We feel vulnerable. Most of us try to fight those feelings - we strive to appear perfect. In a powerful new vision Dr. Brene Brown challenges everything we think we know about vulnerability, and dispels the widely accepted myth that it's a weakness. She argues that, in truth, vulnerability is strength and when we shut ourselves off from vulnerability - fromrevealing our true selves - we distance ourselves from the experiences that bring purpose and meaning to our lives.Daring Greatly is the culmination of 12 years of groundbreaking social research, across every area of our lives including home, relationships, work, and parenting.

Queer City: Gay London from the Romans to the Present Day (0099592940)
Kniha - autor Peter Ackroyd, 400 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná Peter Ackroyd is our preeminent chronicler of London. In Queer City, he looks at the metropolis in a whole new way – through the history and experiences of its gay population. In Roman Londinium the penis was worshipped and homosexuality was considered admirable. The city was dotted with lupanaria (‘wolf dens’ or public pleasure houses), fornices (brothels) and thermiae (hot baths). Then came the Emperor Constantine, with his bishops and clergy, monks and missionaries. His rule was accompanied by the first laws against queer practices. What followed was an endless loop of alternating permissiveness and censure, from the notorious Normans, whose military might depended on masculine loyalty, and the fashionable female transvestism of the 1620s; to the frenzy of executions for sodomy in the early 1800s and the ‘gay plague’ in the 1980s. Ackroyd takes us right into this hidden city,...

Kniha - autor Brene Brown, 288 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná Every time we are introduced to someone new, try to be creative, or start a difficult conversation, we take a risk. We feel uncertain and exposed. We feel vulnerable. Most of us try to fight those feelings - we strive to appear perfect. In a powerful new vision Dr. Brene Brown challenges everything we think we know about vulnerability, and dispels the widely accepted myth that it's a weakness.

Kniha - autor Barbara Ann Brennan, 320 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná With the clarity of a physicist and the compassion of a gifted healer with fifteen years of professional experience observing 5,000 clients and students, Barbara Ann Brennan presents the first in-depth study of the human energy field for people who seek happiness, health and their full potential.

This energy body -- only recently verified by scientists, but long known to healers and mystics -- is the starting point of all illness. Here, our most powerful and profound human interactions take place, the precursor and healer of all physiological and emotional disturbances. "Hands of Light is your guide to a new wholeness. It...

Here was a space where blackness was taking part in shaping European identity ... A continent of Algerian flea markets, Surinamese shamanism, German Reggae and Moorish castles. Yes, all this was part of Europe too ... With my brown skin and my British passport - still a ticket into mainland Europe at the time of writing - I set out in search of the Afropeans, on a cold October morning.' Afropean is an on-the-ground documentary of areas where Europeans of African descent are juggling their multiple allegiances and forging new identities. Here is an alternative map of the continent, taking the reader to places like Cova Da Moura, the Cape Verdean shantytown on the outskirts of Lisbon with its own underground economy, and Rinkeby, the area of Stockholm that is eighty per cent Muslim.
