This Is Me, Is That You? - Steven Poser

A psychoanalyst’s sensitive exploration of schizophrenia through the stories and words of three women patients  In the spring of 1994, psychoanalyst-in-training Steven Poser arrived for his clinical internship at one of the last remaining nineteenth-century mental hospitals in New England. Intending to observe and offer compassionate care to the most chronically ill patients, he ended up staying for two years, forming close therapeutic relationships with three female patients suffering from schizophrenia, “Agnes,” “Mrs. Lutzky,” and “Lucia.”  Drawing from his clinical diary, Poser presents his encounters with the women in their own words, each speaking in a poetry of her own invention. Rather than treat the women as casualties of their illness or their words and actions as nonsensical, Poser sees his patients as dignified and struggling people—and not as markedly different from the rest of us as we might think. This is a deeply human book about the frailty and importance of human connection and the intangibly healing force of being heard.

Since that time, Evidence has remained a trusted resource for believers young and old. Bringing historical documentation and the best modern scholarship to bear on the trustworthiness of the Bible and its teachings, this extensive volume has encouraged and strengthened millions.

The Home That Love Built - Jessica Meserve

This is the wind that whipped and whirled. This is the lightning that zipped and zapped. This is the thunder that bombarded and blasted. And these are the animals... all soggy and sad.

Switch: How to Change Things When Change is Hard (1847940323)

Kniha - autor Chip Heath; Dan Heath, 306 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná We all know that change is hard. It's unsettling, it's time-consuming, and all too often we give up at the first sign of a setback. But why do we insist on seeing the obstacles rather than the goal? This is the question that bestselling authors Chip and Dan Heath tackle in their compelling and insightful new book. They argue that we need only understand how our minds function in order to unlock shortcuts to switches in behaviour. Illustrating their ideas with scientific studies and remarkable real-life turnarounds the brothers Heath prove that deceptively simple methods can yield truly extraordinary results.

Počátky řeckého myšlení - Jean-Pierre Vernant

Obraz proměny řeckého světa a myšlení mezi 12. a 5. stol. př. Kr., mezi zánikem mykénské palácové civilizace a vznikem klasické řecké polis. Druhé opravené vydání. Vernant, Jean-Pierr (*1914) je jedním z nejoriginálnějších hellénistů poválečné Francie. Platí o něm v plné míře, co sám napsal o svém předchůdci a učiteli Louisi Gernetovi: že přispěl k obnově řeckých studií ve Francii. Ve svých pracích, věnovaných zejména starořeckému náboženskému myšlení, navázal na tradici francouzské historické psychologie a sociologie. Na půdě klasických studií tak vydobyl domovské právo oboru, který nazýval "historickou antropologií starého Řecka". Počátky řeckého myšlení (1962) patří dnes již ke klasickým knihám. Vyšly nedlouho po rozluštění mykénského písma a načrtly smělý, plastický a přesvědčivý obraz proměny řeckého světa a řeckého myšlení mezi XII. a V. stoletím př. Kr. - mezi zánikem mykénské palácové civilizace a vznikem klasické řecké polis . Jako učitel působil Jean-Pierre Vernant naposledy na College de France, jehož je emeritním profesorem. Znám je nicméně i u nás, neboť několikrát navštívil Československo.

Ar-men - Jean-Pierre Abraham

Ar men znamená v bretonštině kámen. Je to významný maják postavený na skalisku v otevřeném moři u západního pobřeží Bretaně. Autor Jean-Pierre Abraham na něm působil jako strážce v letech 1959-1964. Jeho deníkové zápisky z té doby zachycují šest měsíců jednoho ze tří strážců majáku, vyšly poprvé v roce 1968 a dočkaly se mnoha vydání. Abrahamova kniha je pozoruhodně úsporná, ale přitom se silným nábojem jakéhosi exotického kouzla - zejména pro středoevropského suchozemského čtenáře, pro kterého už jenom prostředí opuštěného, osamoceného a větry zmítaného majáku nabývá netušených rozměrů. A tak může kniha Ar-men oslovit nejen úzký okruh čtenářů mořeplavci počínaje a obdivovateli neopakovatelné Bretaně konče. Ar-men jako výsostný zástupce krásné literatury je jakýmsi minimalistickým příběhem-nepříběhem se spoustou vody, trochou techniky, přemírou větru a mořem snahy poznat sám sebe. V této souvislosti nelze nevzpomenout na Kerouaka hlídajícího na strážní věži lesní požáry, ovšem v poněkud sevřenějším stylu a pod ledovou palbou nemilosrdného příboje.

Svatý Tomáš pro začátečníky - Jean-Pierre Torrell

Svatý Tomáš Akvinský, intelektuál mimořádných kvalit, který smířil víru a rozum, a proslavený teolog, jehož díla se studují i dnes, bývá považován za autora, kterého není snadné číst. Velký znalec jeho díla Jean-Pierre Torrell chce v této knížce přístup k jeho dílu usnadnit a přiblížit ho všem zájemcům. Tomášův život a dílo jsou úzce propojeny. V jeho spisech se odrážejí nelehká léta jeho mládí a některá z jeho nejvýznamnějších děl zas úzce souvisejí s jeho dvojím pedagogickým působením na pařížské univerzitě, kde v dobových polemikách vynikl jako obávaný soupeř svých názorových odpůrců. Tomáš se zajímal o všechny myšlenkové proudy své doby a reagoval na ně. Jeho Teologická suma a Suma proti pohanům, díla, která vznikala ve vzácných volných chvílích, když zrovna necestoval a nevyučoval, ovlivňují i dnešní myslitele. S Tomášem Akvinským se v této všem přístupné a čtivé knize setkáváme jako s člověkem, a tím se nám otevírá nový pohled i na jeho dílo.

Gaza - Jean-Pierre Filiu

Through its millennium-long existence, Gaza has often been bitterly disputed, yet enduringly neglected. Squeezed between the Negev and Sinai deserts on the one hand and the Mediterranean Sea on the other, Gaza was contested by the Pharaohs, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Fatimids, Mamluks, Crusaders and Ottomans. In 1917, the British Empire fought for months to conquer Gaza, before establishing its mandate for Palestine. In 1948, 200,000 Palestinians sought refuge in Gaza, a marginal area wanted by neither Israel nor Egypt. Palestinian nationalism grew there, and Gaza has since found itself at the heart of Palestinian history. Gaza is where the fedayeen movement arose from the ruins of Arab nationalism; where the 1967 Israeli occupation was repeatedly challenged, culminating in the 1987 intifada; where the dream of Palestinian statehood appeared shattered by the 2007 split between Fatah and Hamas; and from where, in 2023, history’s worst attack on Israel was launched, leading to the worst war ever waged against the Palestinians.Jean-Pierre Filiu’s book was the first comprehensive history of Gaza to be published in any language. This new, updated edition covers events since 2011, including Gaza’s renewed tragic centrality to world politics and security since October 2023.

A Historian in Gaza - Jean-Pierre Filiu

‘The Gaza I knew, and whose length and breadth I’ve travelled, has ceased to exist.'Jean-Pierre Filiu, acclaimed historian of Gaza, is intimately familiar with the land's people and places; he speaks the local dialect. But nothing prepared him for what he encountered there in December 2024. This is his unforgettable, unbearably intimate account of one month in a place shattered by Israel's all-out war.When the historian returned to Gaza, he arrived under circumstances unimaginably different from his many past visits since 1980: only a limited number of convoys were allowed into the Strip, and he was one of the few humanitarians able to enter, this time by night. He remained inside for thirty-three days, and emerged determined to bear witness to the devastation-to the Gazans fighting simply to live, every single day.Filiu's haunting portrait of a land betrayed is a grim work of war reportage, documented with the acuity of a historian; and a lyrical narrative of human suffering, and human dignity.

The Poem - Don Paterson

The Poem attempts to answer several questions: what is a poem? In what way is its use of language distinct? What conditions allow it to arise, and what is its cultural purpose? And how, exactly, do poems work? Part polemic, part technical treatise and part meditation, The Poem is an ambitious contemporary ars poetica. Paterson looks at the writing, transmission and reading of poetry with wit and scholarly flair, drawing together literary analysis, linguistics, metaphysics, psychology and cognitive science in a thorough exploration of how and why poems are composed.The Poem takes the form of three long essays. ‘Lyric’ attends to the music and sound patterns of poetry, and the way in which they work to deepen poetic sense; ‘Sign’ develops a new theory of metaphor, metonym and symbol, and looks at how ideas of ‘meaning’ change under poetic conditions; ‘Metre’ addresses poetry’s relationship to time and to the rhythms of speech, then builds a theory of prosody from the ground up, proposing some radical correctives to existing metrical theory along the way.Through his various professional guises – as major prize-winning poet, as Professor of Poetry at the University of St Andrews and as Poetry Editor at Picador Macmillan – ...
