Travels with Plotinus - Moin Mir
In Travels with Plotinus, Moin Mir follows Plotinus’s 1,780-year-old journey of personal discovery across India, Egypt, Italy, Greece and Turkey as he tries to understand the core concept of Plotinian thought, derived from studying the Upanishads – ‘Unity and Oneness’. He uses Plotinus’s philosophy to observe how the free will of intellect uses ‘Unity’ for good and evil. Intimate conversations with refugees escaping war, innocent boatmen drifting down the Nile, simple farmers and monks in Greece along with observations of ancient art and modern technological accomplishments inform his thoughts and writing on the concept of the oneness of humankind – its immense power to bring good and yet its vulnerability to the stealth of intellect to destroy and self-destruct.

Travels with a Donkey in the Cevennes and the Amateur Emigrant - Robert Louis Stevenson
In 1878, Robert Louis Stevenson was suffering from poor health, struggling to survive on the income derived from his writings, and tormented by his infatuation with Fanny Osbourne, a married American woman. His response was to embark on a journey through the Cevennes with a donkey, Modestine, and a notebook, which he later transformed into Travels with a Donkey. Just a few months after publication, Stevenson was off again - this time crossing the Atlantic and the breadth of America in the hope of being re-united with Fanny, an experience he recorded in The Amateur Emigrant. Both pieces are classics of travel writings, which reveal as much about Stevenson''s character as the landscape he travels through.

Travels With Boogie - Mark Wallington
Travels with Boogie is the story of two city slickers - one an unattractive but streetwise mongrel from Stockwell, the other the long-suffering author - and how they came to terms with England''s countryside and waterways.First they had to survive against all odds as they embarked on a heroic journey up hill and down dale, with rucksacks full of Kennomeat, along Britain''s longest coastal footpath - from Somerset to Devon, from Cornwall to Dorset. And they did it. Then, undaunted, they took on the treacherous waters of the Thames. Not exactly as Mark had planned, however: this time his companion was to be the delectable Jennifer - but she was held up at the office, and when Boogie was dropped off at the kennels the other dogs complained.Travels with Boogie is a witty and fascinating account of a mismatched couple and of the people they meet and places they visit.

Travels with Herodotus - Ryszard Kapuściński
Travels with Herodotus records how Kapuscinski set out on his first forays – to India, China and Africa – with the great Greek historian constantly in his pocket. He sees Louis Armstrong in Khartoum, visits Dar-es-Salaam, arrives in Algiers in time for a coup when nothing seems to happen (but he sees the Mediterranean for the first time). At every encounter with a new culture, Kapuscinski plunges in, curious and observant, thirsting to understand its history, its thought, its people. And he reads Herodotus so much that he often feels he is embarking on two journeys – the first his assignment as a reporter, the second following Herodotus’ expeditions.

Travels with Charley - John Steinbeck
In 1960, John Steinbeck set out in his pick-up truck with his dog Charley to rediscover and chronicle his native USA, from Maine to California.He felt that he might have lost touch with its sights, sounds and the essence of the American people. Moving through the woods and deserts, dirt tracks and highways to large cities and glorious wildernesses, Steinbeck observed - with remarkable honesty, insight and a humorous eye - the gamut of America and the people who inhabited it.His 10,000-mile journey took him through almost forty states, where he saw things that made him proud, angry, sympathetic and elated. A rugged and passionate adventure of self-identity, Steinbeck''s vision of the changing world still speaks to us prophetically through the decades.''Delightful. This is a book to be read slowly for its savor.'' The Atlantic

Travels with Myself and Another - Martha Gellhorn
Out of a lifetime of travelling, Martha Gellhorn has selected her "best horror journeys". She bumps through rain-sodden, war-torn China to meet Chiang Kai-Shek, floats listlessly in search of u-boats in the wartime Caribbean and visits a dissident writer in the Soviet Union against her better judgement. Written with the eye of a novelist and an ironic black humour, what makes these tales irresistible are Gellhorn's explosive and often surprising reactions. Indignant, but never righteous and not always right, through the crucible of hell on earth emerges a woman who makes you laugh with her at life, while thanking God that you are not with her.

The Enneads - Plotinus
Regarded as the founder of Neo-Platonism, Plotinus (AD 204-70) was the last great philosopher of antiquity, producing 0works that proved in many ways a precursor to Renaissance thought. Plotinus was convinced of the existence of a state of supreme perfection and argued powerfully that it was necessary to guide the human soul towards this state. Here he outlines his compelling belief in three increasingly perfect levels of existence - the Soul, the Intellect, and the One - and explains his conviction that humanity must strive to draw the soul towards spiritual transcendence. A fusion of Platonism, mystic passion and Aristotelian thought, The Enneads offers a highly original synthesis of early philosophical and religious beliefs, which powerfully influenced later Christian and Islamic theology.

Plótinos - Karl Jaspers
Jaspersovo pojednání o posledním velkém filosofovi antiky, Plótinovi není suchá analýza filologických detailů a historických vlivů; je spíše meditací, která skrze Plótinův systém proniká k živému myšlení. Ukazuje, že zdánlivě objektivní schéma Plóti-novy filosofie je ve skutečnosti obrazem světa sloužícím k tomu, aby bylo možné popsat aktivní a svobodný vzestup a upadání duše; Plótinova metafyzika tak může být i dnes nástrojem pro výklad lidské svobody a životního smyslu.

Gulliver's Travels - Jonathan Swift
''Thus, gentle Reader, I have given thee a faithful History of my Travels for Sixteen Years, and above Seven Months; wherein I have not been so studious of Ornament as of Truth.''In these words Gulliver represents himself as a reliable reporter of the fantastic adventures he has just set down; but how far can we rely on a narrator whose identity is elusive and whoses inventiveness is self-evident? Gulliver''s Travels purports to be a travel book, and describes Gulliver''s encounters with the inhabitants of four extraordinary places: Lilliput, Brobdingnag, Laputa, and the country of the Houyhnhnms. A consummately skilful blend of fantasy and realism makes Gulliver''s Travels by turns hilarious, frightening, and profound. Swift plays tricks on us, and delivers one of the world''s most disturbing satires of the human condition.This new edition includes the changing frontispiece portraits of Gulliver that appeared in successive early editions.

Gulliver's Travels - Jonathan Swift
The misadventures of Lemuel Gulliver certainly are extraordinary. First he is shipwrecked in a strange land, and finds himself a prisoner of the tiny inhabitants of Lilliput. Then he washes up in Brobdingnag, where the people are giants of extraordinary proportions. Further exploits see him stranded with the scientists and philosophers of Laputa, and meeting a race of talking horses who rule over bestial humans. One of the finest satires in the English language, Gulliver’s Travels delights in the mockery of everything from government to religion and – despite the passing of nearly three centuries – remains just as funny and relevant today. This gorgeous Macmillan Collector’s Library edition of Jonathan Swift''s Gulliver’s Travels features the beautiful artwork of the celebrated English illustrator Arthur Rackham, and an afterword by author and critic, Henry Hitchings.

Travels in West Africa - Mary Kingsley
A remarkable account by a pioneering woman explorer who was described by Rudyard Kipling as ''the bravest woman of all my knowledge''.Until 1893, Mary Kingsley lived the typical life of a single Victorian woman, tending to sick relatives and keeping house for her brother. However, on the death of her parents, she undertook an extraordinary decision: with no prior knowledge of the region, she set out alone to West Africa to pursue her anthropological interests and collect botanical specimens. Her subsequent book, published in 1897, is a testament to understatement and humour - few explorers made less of the hardships and dangers experienced while travelling (including unaccompanied treks through dangerous jungles and encounters with deadly animals). Travels in West Africa would challenge (as well as reinforce) contemporary Victorian prejudices about Africa, and also made invaluable contributions to the fields of botany and anthropology. Above all, however, it has stood the test of time as a gripping, classic travel narrative by a woman whose sense of adventure and fascination with Africa transformed her whole life.

Gulliver's New Travels - James Gulliver Hancock
A modern take on the classic Gulliver''s Travels in the form of a colouring book. In Gulliver''s New Travels, illustrator James Gulliver Hancock brings together his obsessions with re-imagining the world and travelling with his attention to scale and detail. The result is a creative colouring book inspired by Swift''s 18th-century classic, featuring different worlds and playing with scale as in the lands of teeny Lilliput and giant Brobdingnag. There is a whole imaginary world to colour in. Taking in places from around the world, from all landscapes, and even future worlds and those in galaxies far away, the illustrations are playful and fanciful but always wonderful to look at. You are encouraged to engage with the drawings and make them your own whether you are using pencils or pens. As you colour in, you’ll discover great little details you hadn’t spotted before, such as the diver swimming through the flowers and the tiny climber scaling a cactus. A must have for anyone with a passion for colouring in and illustration from a major creative talent.

Miri jeho nepřítomnost trápí, a aby se v nastalém zmatku vyznala, třídí si všechno do tří kategorií. Do jedné dává všechno, co je obyčejné — třeba jako máma nebo bílá čokoláda. Do druhé řadí to, co je výjimečné nebo, jak říká Miri, kromobyčejné. Tam patří zebry, pizza Havaj a samozřejmě táta. A pak je tu ještě třetí kategorie — pro záležitosti prachobyčejné. Sem spadá to nejnudnější, co Miri zná: Minecraft, brácha a spolužáci… O tom, že by Miriam chtěla být výjimečná jako její táta, není pochyb. Jakmile zjistí, v čem je dobrá, a prokáže svoje nadání, připojí se k němu na jeho turné. Bude z ní zkrátka Kromobyčejná Miri. Tuhle knížku nejde odložit. Je napínavá až do konce a s Miri se vám bude loučit jen těžko. Budete si po kouskách skládat její příběh a neuvěřitelně jí fandit.

Mír v nás - Thich Nhat Hanh
Autor je nejvýznamnějším vietnamským zenovým mistrem, básníkem a bývalým vedoucím buddhistické mírové delegace, zakladatelem Řádu Tiep Hien a Buddhistické university Van Hanh. Ve své knize učí, jak meditovat v každodenním životě. Thich Nhat Hanh se narodil v r. 1926 v Thua Thien ve Vietnamu. V období dospívání odešel z domova, aby se stal zenovým mnichem, v r. 1942 vstoupil do kláštera Tu Hieu. V r. 1964 založil v tehdejším Saigonu Buddhistickou univerzitu Van Hanh a Řád Tiep Hien. V témže roce zde založil, společně se skupinou univerzitních profesorů a studentů, Školu mládeže pro sociální služby založenou na buddhistických principech nenásilí a soucitné aktivity. Po skončení války sdružovaly tyto sbory více než deset tisíc mnichů, mnišek a mladých sociálních pracovníků, kteří pomáhali opravovat rozbombardované vesnice, stavěli školy a nemocnice, pomáhali rodinám bez domova a organizovali zemědělská družstva. R. 1966 jej pozvalo Společenství smíření a Cornellova univerzita na turné po USA, aby americkou veřejnost obeznámil s nesmírným utrpením svého lidu. Pro svou nekompromisní neutralitu se pak nemohl vrátit do vlasti (rodnou zemi mu bylo umožněno navštívit až v roce 2005). Usadil se proto ve Francii, kde mu byl r. 1983 udělen azyl. Poblíž Bordeaux založil zenové středisko Plum Village a stal se ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Potíže s mírem - Joe Abercrombie
Mír je jen jiný druh bojiště…Savine dan Glokta, kdysi nejmocnější investorka v Adově, zjišťuje, že její plány, bohatství i reputace jsou v troskách. Pořád ale má svoje ambice a nedovolí, aby jí v jejich naplňování cokoliv stálo v cestě.Pro hrdiny jako je Leo dan Brock a Soumrak Zběsilec, šťastné, jen když mohou tasit meč, je mír utrpení, které by mělo skončit tak rychle, jak je to jen možné. Nejprve je ale třeba rozdmýchat křivdy, získat moc a shromáždit spojence – a Rikke musí ovládnout moc dlouhého oka dřív, než ji zabije.Nepokoje narůstají v každé společenské vrstvě. Bořiči se stále plíží ve stínech a kují pikle, jak osvobodit obyčejné lidi od okovů poroby, zatímco aristokraté se mezi sebou hašteří kvůli výhodám pro sebe. Orso se snaží najít bezpečnou cestu tím labyrintem nožů, kterým politika je, ale jeho dluhy a nepřátelé se jen násobí. Staré způsoby mizí v propadlišti dějin a staří vůdcové s nimi, ale ti, kdo se chápou otěží moci, nenacházejí žádné spojence, žádné přátele a určitě ne věčný mír.

Artists Series: Malgorzata Mirga-Tas
An insightful and much-needed introduction to the life and work of Małgorzata Mirga-Tas, a textile artist dedicated to celebrating the vibrant heritage of the Romani community.Małgorzata Mirga-Tas (b.1978) is a Romani artist and activist who is best known for her colourful textile collages. Made from materials gathered from family and friends, and often created in collaboration with other women, these works depict the everyday life of the Romani people to challenge stereotypical representations and form what she calls ‘microcarriers of history’.This fascinating introduction explores the life and work of Mirga-Tas, contextualising her practice within Romani culture and the community in which she was raised. Bringing attention to the Romani people – their relationships, alliances and shared activities – through her visual storytelling, she also re-imagines artworks from across the centuries that have presented Romani identity in negative ways and transforms them into vibrant images imbued with strength and dignity. These works, informed by her feminist perspective and a sustained engagement with her community, combine realism with visual motifs of Romani culture, and offer a rare opportunity to see and celebrate the Roma on their own terms – both as a contemporary community and as a people with a rich heritage.

Gulliver’s Travels - Jonathan Swift
HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics.'I cannot but conclude the bulk of your natives to be the most pernicious race of little odious vermin that nature ever suffered to crawl upon the surface of the earth.'Shipwrecked on the high seas, Lemuel Gulliver finds himself washed up on the strange island of Lilliput, a land inhabited by quarrelsome miniature people. On his travels he continues to meet others who force him to reflect on human behaviour - the giants of Brobdingnag, the Houyhnhnms and the Yahoos. In this scathing satire on the politics and morals of the 18th Century, Swift's condemnation of society and its institutions still resonates today.
