Nové vydání klasických pohádek Hanse Christiana Andersena s unikátními ilustracemi jednoho z nejvýznamnějších irských výtvarníků dvacátého století Harryho Clarka.Ačkoli své první pohádkové texty vydal Andersen (1805–1875) již před téměř dvěma sty roky, jejich obliba mezi čtenáři, a to jak dětskými, tak dospělými, neklesá. Slavný dánský pohádkář stvořil příběhy, na kterých vyrostlo mnoho generací milovníků krásných knih a které se navždy zapsaly do kolektivní paměti.Naše vydání, vycházející z překladu Gustava Pallase, obsahuje pětadvacet pohádek, mezi nimiž nechybí ty nejznámější, jako například Malá mořská víla, Císařovy nové šaty, Sněhová královna, Statečný cínový vojáček, Ošklivé káčátko či Princezna na hrášku.Harry Clarke (1889–1931), rodák z Dublinu, proslul jako ilustrátor knih a vitrážista. Patří mezi nejvýraznější tváře „zlatého věku ilustrace“ (1875–1930). Jeho tvorba je poznamenána duchem a estetikou secese, dekadence, symbolismu, art deco, ale také německé expresionistické kinematografie. Clarkovy ilustrace Andersenových pohádek byly poprvé zveřejněny v roce 1916. K dalším autorům, jejichž díla opatřil ilustracemi, patří například E. A. Poe nebo J. W. Goethe.Těžiště jeho díla spočívalo ve vitráži. Vytvořil více než sto šedesát vitrážových panelů určených jak pro sakrální, tak světské budovy, jakož i soukromé rezidence. Nejznámější z nich se nacházejí v kapli Honan při Univerzitě v Corku, v Dublinské městské galerii Hugh Lane či ve floridském muzeu The Wolfsonian-FIU.Harry Clarke byl jedním z hlavních představitelů Irského hnutí umění a uměleckých řemesel

The Caribbean is the source of one of the richest, most accessible, and yet technically adventurous traditions of contemporary world literature. This collection of Caribbean short stories is pan-Caribbean, including stories from the four main languages of the region: English, Spanish, French, and Dutch. Stories by major figures in the English language tradition such as V. S. Naipaul, Sam Sevlon, and Jean Rhys are set alongside their Spanish- and French-speaking contemporaries like Alejo Carpentier, Jan Bosh, and Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Their work, in all its diversity of style, theme, and linguistic energy, provides a context for the work of an exciting new generation of Caribbean writers like Edwidge Danticat, Robert Antoni, Astrid Roemer, and Jamaica Kincaid.A celebration of regional creativity, the collection contains sufficient surprises to keep even the most avid student of West Indian writing turning the pages, while reminding readers that the Caribbean is a multilingual, multicultural space.

The brain is the most complex structure in the universe. In Brainstorm the Wellcome Prize-winning author of It's All in Your Head uncovers the most eye-opening symptoms medicine has to offer.'Powerfully life-affirming... Brainstorm is testament to O'Sullivan's unshowy clarity of thought and her continued marvelling at the mysteries of the brain' GuardianBrainstorm examines the stories of people whose symptoms are so strange even their doctor struggles to know how to solve them. A man who sees cartoon characters running across the room; a teenager who one day arrives home with inexplicably torn clothes; a girl whose world turns all Alice in Wonderland; another who transforms into a ragdoll whenever she even thinks about moving. The brain is the most complex structure in the universe, and neurologists must puzzle out life-changing diagnoses from the tiniest of clues - it's the ultimate in medical detective work. In this riveting book, one of the UK's leading neurologists takes you with her as she follows the trail of her patients' symptoms: feelings of déjà vu lead us to a damaged hippocampus; spitting and fidgeting to the right temporal lobe; fear of movement to a brain tumour; a missed heart beat to the limbic system.It's a journey that will open your eyes to the unfathomable intricacies of the brain, and the infinite variety of human capacity and experience.
