Vienna combines drama and elegance like no other. For centuries the heart of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the stately city on the Danube, has been defined by vast palaces and imperial grandeur—but behind the Baroque opulence, Vienna is also a place of genteel coffee house culture, epicurean tradition, and a heritage of both delicate and daring music, art, and design, from Johann Strauss to Egon Schiele, from Gustav Mahler to Josef Hoffmann. This volume is a treasure trove of photography from the last 175 years, following the evolution of Vienna from imperial capital to modern metropolis. Like a visual walk through time and cityscape, hundreds of carefully curated pictures trace the developments in Vienna’s built environment and the cultural and historical trends they reflect, whether the urban Gesamtkunstwerk of the 19th-century Ringstrasse or the experiments of “Red Vienna” in the 1920s, when the city had a social democrat government for the first time. Through these remarkable photographs, we discover not only the great landmarks and lesser-known corners of Vienna, but also the ubiquity and the tumult of its history. We see the cultural blossoming of the fin de siècle, when radical innovators such as Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele, Adolf Loos, and ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Swiss artist HR Giger (1940–2014) is most famous for his creation of the space monster in Ridley Scott’s 1979 horror sci-fi film Alien, which earned him an Oscar. Yet this was just one of the most popular expressions of Giger’s biomechanical arsenal of creatures, which consistently merged hybrids of human and machine into images of haunting power and dark psychedelia. The visions drew on demons of the past, as well as evoking mythologies for the future. Above all, they gave expression to the collective fears and fantasies of his age: fear of the atom, of pollution and wasted resources, and of a future in which our bodies depend on machines for survival. Following the SUMO-sized monograph which was begun shortly before the artist''s unexpected death, this affordable anniversay edition pays homage to Giger’s unique vision. The book shows the complete story of Giger’s life and art, his sculptures, film design, and iconic album covers as well as the heritage he left us in his own artist’s museum and self-designed bar in the Swiss Alps. In an in-depth essay, Giger scholar Andreas J. Hirsch plunges into the themes of the artist’s oeuvre while an extensive biography draws on contemporary quotes and ...

Benjamin Lacombe’s haunting illustrations alongside Hans Christian Andersen’s classic story of love and loss showcase the tale in an enchanting new light French artist Benjamin Lacombe has created stunning, one-of-a-kind artwork to illustrate the pages of Hans Christian Andersen’s original tale about a young mermaid who makes a devastating deal with a sea witch and transforms into a human, only to end up heartbroken, lose the deal, and lose her life. The book’s illustrations and design are unique, captivating, and unexpectedly haunting, appealing to adult fans of Benjamin Lacombe and the pop surrealist movement as well as a younger audience, especially with the upcoming nostalgia-fueled remake of Disney’s The Little Mermaid. In addition to Hans Christian Andersen’s classic story, the book also includes additional pages featuring Andersen’s unrequited love letters to Edvard Collins and a postface by Lacombe with historical biography and context. In an essay, Lacombe explores LGBTQ themes in Hans Christian Andersen’s life. Frustrated with the overly feminine depictions of the story’s protagonist throughout history, Lacombe has created an androgynous mermaid to showcase the classic tale in a new light.

První díl série o policejním psychologovi Sebastianu Bergmanovi. Úspěšný švédský kriminální debut od dvojice autorů Michael Hjorth a Hans Rosenfeldt.Na policejní ústředně zvoní telefon. Šestnáctiletý chlapec Roger zmizel a jeho matka si dělá starosti. Je po něm vyhlášeno pátrání a skupina mladých skautů zanedlouho nalezne v bažinách jeho zohavené tělo. Rogeru Erikssonovi někdo vyřízl srdce z hrudi. Případ přebírá švédská kriminálka a využívá nabídky pomoci od psychologa Sebastiana Bergmana, jednoho z předních expertů na sériové vrahy. Sebastian se sice po smrti své ženy a dcery úplně vzdal policejní práce, ale má své vlastní důvody, proč chce být součástí týmu. Jeho zprvu vlažný přístup k vyšetřování se postupně mění v upřímnou snahu složit jednotlivé dílky skládačky a odhalit vraha. Ne všichni členové vyšetřovacího týmu jsou však Sebastianovou přítomností nadšeni. Jeho neurvalé způsoby a bezohledné chování, pramenící z pocitů prázdnoty po ztrátě rodiny, hraničí se zastrašováním a narušují harmonii skupiny. I přes osobní neshody se vyšetřovatelům podaří zjistit, že všechny stopy vedou jedním směrem k prestižní soukromé škole, kam Roger chodil. Palmlövské gymnázium se na první pohled zdá být pro chlapce ideálním prostředím.

Audiokniha: Spisovatel Hans Christian Andersen probouzí postavičky ve své pracovně. Povídá si s nimi o tom, co mají společného s lidmi a co naopak. Starožitným figurkám je smutno z toho, jak málo času mají lidé na světě a jak moc jej přitom promarní, aniž by si to sami uvědomili. Když spisovatel odejde, začnou si spolu kominíček a pastýřka Karolínka povídat jinak, než se bavili doposud. Vedou řeč o lásce. Do jejich hovoru se ale vloží věčně nazlobený seržant. Chce, aby se vnučka ctihodného mandarína za něj provdala. Byla s ním přeci zasnoubena. A seržant je na příborníku vyřezán z toho nejvzácnějšího mahagonového dřeva. Pastýřka Karolínka se však rozhodne pro svou lásku prchnout s kominíkem a schovat se na střeše. Pozorují spolu hvězdy, moře a celý širý svět. Jenže pak se pastýřce zasteskne po pokoji, po domově. Dokáží se obě postavičky vrátit zpátky? A jak to dopadne se svatbou? Účinkují: Daniela Kolářová, Jiří Ornest, Ota Sklenčka, Miloš Kopecký a Zdeněk Řehoř

Hans Christian Andersen je známý především jako autor mnoha desítek pohádek. Ke konci života napsal idylický pohádkový příběh o Šťastném Perovi, v němž se vrátil k vlastnímu dětství a jeho snům. Perovi dal prožít - a spolu s ním ve fantazii jistě také prožíval - osud, jakého se chtěl sám jako dospívající hoch a pak už začínající autor dočkat, život slavného pěvce a hudebníka. Proto je v něm Per šťastlivcem, jemuž od samého, třeba chudého dětství nahrává náhoda i dobří lidé. Jeli Andersenův útlý román tou dětskou touhou určen a svým názvem také výmluvně předznamenán, stejně tak ho prostupuje vlídné hřejivé ovzduší a lidé, s nimiž má Per vztah důvěrného srozumění. Je to svět procítěný skrze vzpomínky z dětství a naplněným jeho bezpečně umístěným inventářem - kupeckými dvory, truhlami, punčem, mašlemi a kvetoucími štěpnicemi: a kolem je opsán magický kruh, jímž neproniknou větry ani blesky.

A new selection of 30 tales to mark the 200 year anniversary of Andersen''s birth in 2005. Tiina Nunnally''s sparkling translation captures the rawness and immediacy of Andersen''s style, for the first time enabling English readers to be as startled and amazed as his original readers were, and revealing the unique inventiveness of Andersen''s genius.At a time when children''s stories were formal, moral and didactic, Hans Christian Andersen revolutionized the genre, giving an anarchic twist to traditional folklore and creating a huge number of utterly original stories that sprang directly from his imagination. From the exuberant early stories such as ''The Emperor''s New Clothes'', though poignant masterpieces such as ''The Little Mermaid'' and ''The Ugly Duckling'', to the darker, more subversive later tales written for adults, the stories included here are endlessly experimental, both humorous and irreverent, sorrowful and strange.
