Exploring the Yoga Sutras - Nicholas Sutton
In this sutra-by-sutra translation and study of the Yoga Sutras, Hindu Studies scholar Nicholas Sutton offers an accessible guide to the complex philosophical ideas on which the ancient practice of Yoga is based, illuminating the meaning of Patañjali’s seminal Yoga treatise and the manner in which it seeks to integrate Yoga into life as a whole.The Yoga Sutras, composed by Patañjali nearly two millenia ago, is foundational to the Yoga systems, and widely regarded as a seminal text for students and practitioners of Yoga alike. While Patañjali’s work is centrally concerned with the exposition of a practice aimed at self-realisation, it is as much interested in the philosophical ideas that underpin the forms of practice it advocates. In Exploring the Yoga Sutras, Nicholas Sutton offers a new translation of the text accompanied by a systematic examination of its ideas, with reference to some of the principal traditional commentaries. Unpacking the layers of meaning embedded in the text, Sutton demonstrates how the Yoga Sutras weaves the philosophy and practice of Yoga together in a subtle blend that provides a framework for understanding the position of the embodied living being within this world and the means by which the world may be transcended. Discussing each sutra, both individually and in the context of different passages, Exploring the Yoga Sutras strives to make the complex ideas of this Yoga classic accessible to the modern reader who may not have a prior grounding in the study of Indian philosophy. OXFORD CENTRE SERIES: The Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies Publishing Series offers authoritative yet accessible introductions to a wide range of subjects in Hindu Studies. Each book in the series aims to present its subject matter in a form that is engaging and readily comprehensible to persons of all backgrounds – academic or otherwise – without compromising scholarly rigour. The series thus bridges the divide between academic and popular writing by preserving and utilising the best elements of both. Other books in the series include The Bhagavad Gita: A New Translation and Study Guide; The Hindu Temple and Its Sacred Landscape; and Women in the Hindu World. EXPERT AUTHOR: Nicholas Sutton is the Director of the Continuing Education Department of the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies, an academy for the study of Hindu cultures, societies, philosophies, religions, and languages. He received his PhD from Lancaster University, writing his doctoral dissertation on the Mahabharata, and currently develops and tutors online courses on Hindu religious traditions. EDUCATION AID: This book serves as a comprehensive resource for both classwork and independent study. With the integration of suggested further reading, and glossary of Sanskrit terms, and images throughout, Exploring the Yoga Sutras offers an accessible introduction to a foundational Yoga classic.

The Myth of Sisyphus - Albert Camus
The summation of the existentialist philosophy threaded throughout all his writing, Albert Camus The Myth of Sisyphus is translated by Justin O Brien with an introduction by James Wood in Penguin Classics.In this profound and moving philosophical statement, Camus poses the fundamental question: is life worth living? If human existence holds no significance, what can keep us from suicide? As Camus argues, if there is no God to give meaning to our lives, humans must take on that purpose themselves. This is our absurd task, like Sisyphus forever rolling his rock up a hill, as the inevitability of death constantly overshadows us. Written during the bleakest days of the Second World War, The Myth of Sisyphus (Le Mythe de Sisyphe) argues for an acceptance of reality that encompasses revolt, passion and, above all, liberty. This volume contains several other essays, including lyrical evocations of the sunlit cities of Algiers and Oran, the settings of his great novels The Outsider and The Plague.Albert Camus (1913-60) is the author of a number of best-selling and highly influential works, all of which are published by Penguin. They include The Fall, The Outsider and The First Man. Awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1957, Camus is remembered as one of the few writers to have shaped the intellectual climate of post-war France, but beyond that, his fame has been international.If you enjoyed The Myth of Sisyphus, you might like Camus The Outsider, also available in Penguin Modern Classics. Camus could never cease to be one of the principal forces in our domain, nor to represent, in his own way, the history of France and of this century Jean-Paul Sartre

The Time Regulation Institute - Ahmet Hamdi Tanpinar
One of the greatest and most overlooked novels of the twentieth century, by an author championed by Nobel Prize winner Orhan Pamuk, The Time Regulation Institute appears here in English for the first time-more than fifty years after its original publication in Turkish.This is the story of the misadventures of Hayri Irdals, an unforgettable antihero who, along with an eccentric cast of characters (a television mystic, a pharmacist who dabbles in alchemy, a dignitary from the lost Ottoman empire, the life-artist Halit), founds The Time Regulation Institute. The institute s quixotic quest: to make sure all the clocks in Turkey are set to Western time. Thus begins a brilliant satire about the calamitous arrival of Western and corporate values in tradition-bound Turkey.An uproarious tragicomedy that is still startlingly relevant, The Time Regulation Institute illuminates the collision of East and West, tradition and modernity, that has been playing out in Turkey since the early twentieth century.AHMET HAMDI TANPINAR (1901-1962) was a poet, short story writer, novelist, essayist, literary historian, and professor. He is considered one of the most significant Turkish novelists of the 20th century. Deeply influenced by Valéry and Bergson, he created a unique cultural universe in his work, bringing together a European literary voice and the sensibilities of the East.MAUREEN FREELY (translator) is the principal translator of Orhan Pamuk, the Nobel Prize-winning Turkish novelist. She lives in England.ALEXANDER DAWE (translator) is an American translator of French and Turkish.

The Gunpowder Plot - James Travers
The Gunpowder Plot is perhaps the most famous and well-documented event in British Early Modern history. This means the story can be told through original dialogue recorded at the time to a greater extent than any other of the period. James Traversâ ™ new account exploits this potential for dramatic first-hand history by drawing on those original sources, at The National Archives and elsewhere. The book includes material from the official investigation and new evidence relating to the torture of Guy Fawkes. This expert retelling of the Gunpowder Plot story brings seventeenth-century voices fresh to the page. It shows the complex motivations of the principal figures involved, both officers of the state and the plotters themselves, and tells the story of the Plot without the benefit or distortion of hindsight. Moving away from the crude dichotomy of Catholic and Protestant, charactersâ ™ decisions and reactions are shown at the heart of events. It can be argued, for example, that Fawkes was as much anti-Scottish as anti-Protestant. It is a dramatic tale, with original documents unveiling the key figuresâ ™ fateful decisions as they happen. The plottersâ ™ generation was the first audience of Shakespeareâ ™s plays and his words were common currency among them. There are shades of meaning in their plans and confessions, which have eluded historians until now.At the time, Fawkes was the â ˜unknown faceâ ™ of the Plot, prized by the well-known and well-connected plotters as a man who could pass unnoticed in Westminster, even as he went to destroy the Houses of Parliament. Today, â ˜Guido Fawkesâ ™ has become the face of political disaffection, thanks to his popularity as a mask for protestors. And in a modern world of religious terrorism, this book lets us understand what drove the participants in British historyâ ™s most potentially destructive home-grown plot.

The Memorial to the Missing of the Somme - Gavin Stamp
Edwin Lutyens Memorial to the Missing of the Somme at Thiepval in Northern France, visited annually by tens of thousands of tourists, is arguably the finest structure erected by any British architect in the twentieth century. It is the principal, tangible expression of the defining event in Britain s experience and memory of the Great War, the first day of the Battle of the Somme on 1 July 1916, and it bears the names of 73,000 soldiers whose bodies were never found at the end of that bloody and futile campaign. This brilliant study by an acclaimed architectural historian tells the origin of the memorial in the context of commemorating the war dead; it considers the giant classical brick arch in architectural terms, and also explores its wider historical significance and its resonances today. So much of the meaning of the twentieth century is concentrated here; the Thiepval Memorial to the Missing casts a shadow into the future, a shadow which extends beyond the dead of the Holocaust, to the Gulag, to the disappeared of South America and of Tianenmen. Reissued in a beautiful and striking new edition for the centenary of the Somme.

The Oxford History of Ancient Egypt
The Oxford History of Ancient Egypt is the only up-to-date, single-volume history of ancient Egypt available in English. The accessible essays and attractive illustrations portray the emergence and development of the distinctive civilization of the ancient Egyptians, from their prehistoric origins to their incorporation into the Roman Empire, covering the period from c. 700,000 BC to AD 311. The authors - all experts working at the cutting edge of their particular fields - outline the principal sequence of political events, including detailed examinations of the three so-called intermediate periods which were previously regarded as dark ages and are only now beginning to be better understood. Against the backdrop of the rise and fall of ruling dynasties, this Oxford History also examines cultural and social patterns, including stylistic developments in art and literature. The pace of change in such aspects of Egyptian culture as monumental architecture, funerary beliefs, and ethnicity was not necessarily tied to the rate of political change. Each of the authors of this history has therefore set out to elucidate, in both words and pictures, the underlying patterns of social and political change and to describe the changing face of ancient Egypt, from the biographical details of individuals to the social and economic factors that shaped the lives of the population as a whole.

On Playing the Flute - Quantz Johann Joachim
Johann Joachim Quantz s On Playing the Flute has long been recognized as one of the primary sources of information about eighteenth-century performance practice. In spite of its title, it is not simply a tutor for the flute, but a fully-fledged programme for training musicians of all types, with detailed information on intonation, ornamentation, dynamics, the duties of the various accompanying performers, including the leader of the orchestra, and the principal forms and styles (French, Italian and German) of the time. Although Quantz is most often identified as the teacher of Frederick the Great, his musical roots were in Dresden, the most brilliant musical establishment in Germany; and his travels and studies in Italy, France and England gave him direct experience of most phases of European musical life in the 1720s and 30s. This reissue of the second edition provides a wonderfully complete and detailed picture of musical taste and performance practice in the 18th century, and includes a new introduction by Professor Reilly, drawing attention to recent research on Quantz. Whether you want to learn to play the flute and be taught by the teacher of Frederick the Great, or just to gain a first-hand insight into the history of classical music, On Playing the Flute is an essential and entertaining read.

The Story of the Banned Book - Mohamed Shoair
An award-winning account of Nobel laureate Naguib Mahfouzâ ™s most controversial novel and the fierce debates that it provoked Naguib Mahfouzâ ™s novel Children of the Alley has been in the spotlight since it was first published in Egypt in 1959. It has been at times banned and at others allowed, sold sometimes under the counter and sometimes openly on the street, often pirated and only recently legally reprinted. It has inspired anxiety among the secular authorities, rage within the religious right, and a drawing of battle lines among Arab intellectuals and writers. It dogged Mahfouz like a curse throughout the remainder of his career, led to his attempted assassination, and sparked a public debate that continues to this day, even after the authorâ ™s death in 2006. It is Egyptâ ™s iconic novel, in whose mirror millions have seen themselves, their society, and even the universe, some finding truth, others blasphemy.In this award-winning account, Mohamed Shoair traces the story of Mahfouzâ ™s novel as a cultural and political object, from its first publication to the present via Mahfouzâ ™s award of the Nobel prize for literature in 1988 and the attempt on his life in 1994. He presents the arguments that swirled about the novel and the wide cast of Egyptian figures, from state actors to secular intellectuals and Islamists, who took part in them. He also contextualizes the interactions among the principal characters, interactions that have done much to shape the countryâ ™s present.Extensively researched and written in a lucid, accessible style, The Story of the Banned Book is both a gripping work of investigative journalism and a window onto some of the fiercest debates around culture and religion to have taken place in Egyptian society over the past half-century.

Tanks in the Battle of the Bulge - Steven J. Zaloga
The Battle of the Bulge raises many questions which, until now, have not been adequately answered: How did the major tank types perform during the battle? What were the specific â ˜lessons learnedâ ™ from the combat? And did these lessons result in changes to tanks in the subsequent months? Offering detailed answers to these questions, and many more, this book provides a survey of the principal tank and tank-equivalents (such as tank destroyers and Jagdpanzers) that took part in the Ardennes Campaign of December 1944â “January 1945. Beginning with a basic overview of the campaign, accompanied by an order of battle of the major armoured units, it examines the opposing forces, covering the organization of the two tank forces to explain how they were deployed. Author Steven Zaloga also scrutinises the technical balance between the opposing sides, comparing armour, mobility and firepower as well as other important factors such as reliability, crew situational awareness, and tank layout/efficiency. Full of specially commissioned and highly accurate artwork plates of the tanks themselves, as well as fascinating technical data based on cutting-edge research, this title is the definitive guide to tank warfare in the Battle of the Bulge.

The Death of Caesar - Barry Strauss
Julius Caesar was stabbed to death in the Roman Senate on March 15, 44 BC-the Ides of March according to the Roman calendar. He was, says author Barry Strauss, the last casualty of one civil war and the first casualty of the next civil war, which would end the Roman Republic and inaugurate the Roman Empire. The Death of Caesarprovides a fresh look at a well-trodden event, with superb storytelling sure to inspire awe . Why was Caesar killed? For political reasons, mainly. The conspirators wanted to return Rome to the days when the Senate ruled, but Caesar hoped to pass along his new powers to his family, especially Octavian. The principal plotters were Brutus, Cassius (both former allies of Pompey), and Decimus. The last was a leading general and close friend of Caesar #39;s who felt betrayed by the great man: He was the mole in Caesar #39;s camp. But after the assassination everything went wrong. The killers left the body in the Senate and Caesar #39;s allies held a public funeral. Mark Antony made a brilliant speech-not Friends, Romans, Countrymen as Shakespeare had it, but something inflammatory that caused a riot. The conspirators fled Rome. Brutus and Cassius raised an army in Greece but Antony and Octavian defeated them. An original, new perspective on an event that seems well known, The Death of Caesar is one of the most riveting hour-by-hour accounts of Caesar #39;s final day I have read....An absolutely marvellous read (The Times, London).

The Decision Loom - Vincent Barabba
Decision-making has been one of the principal victims of modern thinking. The analytical approach has, of course, brought us vaccines, electricity and the internal combustion engine. But, in seeking to break things down into their component parts and improve the parts, governments and businesses continue to make some astonishingly bad decisions. What s more, many enterprises still pay close attention to decisions and decision-making whilst overlooking the bigger picture: the organizational system within which those decisions get made.This elegant book is a guide for any public, private, government or non-profit organization that needs a system for making better decisions. It sets out to change our analytical habit and invites enterprises to consider the bigger picture. Author Vince Barabba presents an elegantly simple approach to making better decisions. He calls this approach The Decision Loom and bases it on Systems Thinking, Design Thinking and Complexity Theory. He also describes the four core capabilities that any organization must put in place for this approach to work. What s more (because we re humans and prefer stories to instruction manuals) the tapestry of the book is embroidered with fascinating examples from the author s lifetime of experience at the head of American corporate and public decision-making.

Tulips and Peacocks: William Morris and Art from the Islamic World - Rowan Bain
An introduction to William Morris⠙s personal collection of artworks from the Islamic world and how they came to influence his pattern-making  One of the principal founders of the Arts and Crafts movement, William Morris was responsible for hundreds of patterns for wallpapers, fabrics, tapestries, and carpets that are iconic of the late nineteenth century and continue to resonate today. It is now widely acknowledged that his artistic production was stimulated by his deep familiarity with embroideries, woven velvets, silks, carpets, and metalwork from Iran, Syria, and Turkey, which he collected throughout his lifetime.  Ranging from popular nineteenth-century tourist merchandise to rare artefacts of historical significance, Morris⠙s collection is a testament to the interconnectedness of global artistic traditions and the enduring importance of recognising the contributions of various cultures to the evolution of his design and craftsmanship. This highly illustrated publication offers diverse perspectives in contextualising Morris⠙s role within contemporary debates around colonial collecting, Islam⠙s representation in the museum context, and issues of cultural appropriation from contributors within the field of British Arts and Crafts and Art from the Islamic world.

Since her mother s death, reality seems a badly painted canvas, viewed through the wrong end of a telescope; she always thinks the wrong things, cowed by the brightness of existence. It is a relief to belong, for once, within the mental institution where she is taken. But eventually, she must reintegrate with societyâ ”and through a transformative encounter with a fellow patient, a return to real life seems possible ...Winner of the 1961 James Tait Black Prize

When The Bulbul Stopped Singing - Raja Shehadeh
Palestine s greatest prose writer Observer Shehadeh is a great inquiring spirit with a tone that is vivid, ironic, melancholy and wise Colm TóibÃnBattered by repeated suicide bombs, the Israeli army invaded Palestine in April 2002 and held many of the principal towns, including Ramallah, under siege. A tank stood at the end of Raja Shehadeh s road; there were Israeli soldiers on the rooftops; his mother was sick, and he couldn t cross town to help her.Shehadeh - winner of the 2008 Orwell Prize and a finalist for the 2023 National Book Awards - kept a diary. This is an account of what it is like to be under siege: the terror, the frustrations, as well as the moments of poignant relief and reflection on the profound crisis gripping both Palestine and Israel.

The Use of Punishment
In recent decades there has been a vast increase in the use of imprisonment and penal supervision, and to many this development appears to be qualitatively as well as quantitatively different. The causes of this development, its consequences and future course form the main point of departure for the contributors to this volume, who consider the changes that have contributed to these apparently fundamental shifts in the use of punishment. In this major new book contributors from a range of disciplines provide an integrated approach to a range of questions surrounding the use of punishment: In what ways have broader social institutions and processes contributed to penal expansion? This book is the principal outcome of the Guggenheim Punishment Project which aimed for a truly interdisciplinary account of thinking about punishment, and an outcome which was general and reflective rather than specific and policy oriented, and accessible to the generalist as well as those with a specialist interest in the field.

A spoustu dalších jiných věcí. Ale dále už nebudeme prozrazovat. Bude nejlepší, když si to všechno prostě poslechnete v podální fenomenálního Zdeňka Junáka! Copyright Nahrávka vznikla podle knihy Jindry Eliáše a Antoine de Saint-Exupéryho Malé Principál vydané Nakladatelstvím JOTA v roce 2020. Copyright © Jindra Eliáš 2020. Čte Zdeněk Junák. Hudba, režie, střih a mastering Michal Kurfürst. Design obálky © Jakub Loukota. Vydalo Nakladatelství JOTA, s. r. o., v roce 2021. 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. Jindra Eliáš (*1950 v Brně) je známý moderátor a první moravský diskžokej, brněnský fanoušek a patriot. Původně se chtěl stát právníkem, ale cestu k tomuto vzdělání ukončila účast na demonstracích proti vpádu vojsk Varšavské smlouvy v roce 1968. Na základě udání strávil osm týdnů v bohunické věznici, po sedmi soudních procesech odešel s podmíněným trestem a právnická fakulta mu doporučila požádat o ukončení studia. Pro Jindru to znamenalo konec vysněné profese, ale nikoliv dobrodružné budoucnosti. Šťastným řízením osudu se stal oficiálním konferenciérem a diskžokejem. Čtyřicet let trávil ve společnosti gramofonových desek, které pouštěl k poslechu i tanci a doprovázel svými originálními komentáři. V legendárním klubu na Šelepce vymyslel a moderoval úspěšné Oldies party, které získaly titul Zlatý MAX jakožto nejlepší diskotéka v České republice. Tuto netradiční hitparádu přivedl Jindra Eliáš i na rozhlasové vlny, kde také v roce 2010 začal vysílat v Českém rozhlase Brno pořad Starobrněnské kolo. Od roku 2015 je jedním z moderátorů Nočního proudu Českého rozhlasu Dvojka. Byl kamarádem legendárního Franty Kocourka, je znalcem brněnského hantecu a objevil se jako autor a interpret na dvou CD písniček a humoru v brněnské hantýrce HANTEC I a II. Převyprávění Malého prince do brněnského hantecu se ujal s velkou pokorou k originálnímu textu i autorovi. Sám tvrdí, že to byl jeden z nejtěžších, ale krásných úkolů v jeho kariéře. Zdeněk Junák Zdeněk Junák je známý herec, dabér a rozhlasový moderátor. Vystudoval JAMU a je členem Městského divadla Brno, kde ho diváci mohli vidět ve hrách Sluha dvou pánů, Přelet nad kukaččím hnízdem, Čekání na Godota, Racek, Kočka na rozpálené plechové střeše, Jméno růže, Bouře, Strýček Váňa, Mrtvé duše a v mnohých dalších.

Principal Leadership for Racial Equity - Antonia J. Felix, Melissa Krull, Candace Raskin
Enhance your capacity for antiracist leadership! The COVID 19 pandemic has illuminated deep-seated structural inequities in our schools and across society. More than ever, education leaders are being challenged to take action to disrupt the institutional racism that undergirds many of our longstanding policies and practices. Our students are challenging us to step up and be antiracists who commit to the uncompromising belief all children can learn and deserve an exceptional education. Based on 10 years of work leading the Institute for Courageous Principal Leadership, this book guides leaders to expanding their racial consciousness through self-reflection and provides the tools they need to counter implicit bias and respond to resistance. Grounded in research, but written in practitioner-friendly language, this book: â ¢ Focuses on systemic leadership and institutional failures as the source of predictable student outcomes â ¢ Leverages research and theory to create a process for principals to build racially equitable practices â ¢ Navigates the politics of leadership without compromising student achievement The practical lessons and strategies in this book will equip you with the skills to implement the leadership and actions that must be taken to confront the reality of systemic racism in education and transform schools into learning environments with a student-centered commitment to high achievement for every learner. Â
