Byl to demonstrativní zločin. Jednoho listopadového dne zavraždil mladý rozhněvaný muslim výstřelem z pistole holandského filmového režiséra Theo van Gogha za to, že se spolu s černou imigrantkou a političkou Aján Hirsi Aliovou odvážil natočit ostrý prtiislámský snímek promítnutý v nizozemské televizi. Zavraždění známého kulturního provokatéra z ideově-náboženských důvodů rukou marockého přistěhovalce otřásla poklidným a tradičně tolerantním Holandskem a vyvolala vlnu hněvivých protestů po celém světě. Ian Buruma, profesor americké university, se vrací do rodného Holandska, aby řadou rozhovorů s muslimy, kulturními a veřejnými činiteli pátral po okolnostech a motivech, jež vedou zejména mladé Maročany k odmítání evropské kultury, jejich demokratických hodnot, proč podléhají vábení a návodům fundamentalistických džihádistů, kteří vedou "svatou válku" proti liberálnímu Západu.

Ian Buruma explores the life and death of Baruch Spinoza, the Enlightenment thinker whose belief in freedom of thought and speech resonates in our own time  A New Yorker “Best Book of 2024” Selection  “An elegant, relevant biography of a vital thinker.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)  Baruch (Benedictus) Spinoza (1632–1677) was a radical free thinker who led a life guided by strong moral principles despite his disbelief in an all-seeing God. Seen by many—Christians as well as Jews—as Satan’s disciple during his lifetime, Spinoza has been regarded as a secular saint since his death. Many contradictory beliefs have been attached to his name: rationalism or metaphysics, atheism or pantheism, liberalism or despotism, Jewishness or anti-Semitism. However, there is no question that he viewed freedom of thought and speech as essential to an open and free society.  In this insightful account, the award-winning author Ian Buruma stresses the importance of the time and place that shaped Spinoza, beginning with the Sephardim of Amsterdam and followed by the politics of the Dutch Republic. Though Spinoza rejected the basic assumptions of his family’s faith, and was consequently expelled from his Sephardic community, Buruma argues that Spinoza did indeed lead a ...

Novinář a profesor na Bard University Ian Buruma (Vražda v Amsterodamu) přispívá v této knize do diskuse o místu organizovaného náboženství ve veřejné sféře politickými a kulturními analýzami ze Spojených států, Evropy a Asie. Zkoumá dějiny vztahů církve a státu v USA a Evropě, úlohu náboženství v politice Číny a Japonska a rostoucí vliv islámu v současné Evropě a pokouší se rozřešit, jak byla v různých kulturách demokracie tímto napětím (mezi náboženskou a světskou autoritou) zasažena. V jednom ze svých provokativních výzkumů se dotýká sekulárních, liberálních Evropanů, z nichž někteří dnes nacházejí v boji proti islámu společnou řeč s konzervativci z obavy, že kvůli němu dojde ke snížení progresivních zisků posledních desetiletí. Buruma se rozchází s teokraty i striktními sekularisty a na příkladu Martina Luthera Kinga mladšího místo toho dokazuje, že projevy náboženských názorů v politice jsou legitimní, pokud tyto názory utvářejí postoje, jež podléhají rozumu. Díky Burumově bystrosti a umírněnosti se jedná o nejvíce informativní úvod do systému oteplování vztahů mezi náboženstvím a státem v moderní době. Vychází v edici 21. století.

Ian Buruma''s maternal grandparents, Bernard and Winifred (Bun & Win), wrote to each other regularly throughout their life together. The first letters were written in 1915, when Bun was still at school at Uppingham and Win was taking music lessons in Hampstead. They were married for more than sixty years, but the heart of their remarkable story lies within the span of the two world wars.After a brief separation, when Bernard served as a stretcher bearer on the Western Front during the Great War, the couple exchanged letters whenever they were apart. Most of them were written during the Second World War and their correspondence is filled with vivid accounts of wartime activity at home and abroad. Bernard was stationed in India as an army doctor, while Win struggled through wartime privation and the Blitz to hold her family together, including their eldest son, the later film director John Schlesinger (Midnight Cowboy, Sunday Bloody Sunday), and twelve Jewish children they had arranged to be rescued from Nazi Germany.Their letters are a priceless record of an assimilated Jewish family living in England throughout the upheavals of the twentieth century and a moving portrait of a loving couple separated by war.

An exploration of how the name of Liberty became synonymous with Aestheticism and the English Art Nouveau Movement, and its role in shaping contemporary late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Artistic Dress Liberty’s dress department opened in 1884, headed by Edward William Godwin, an architect with a multi-faceted career and an important figure in the Aesthetic Movement. From the mid-nineteenth century, women fought against restrictive clothing such as tight-laced corsets and heavy petticoats, which were harmful to their health, and chose instead to dress in looser fitting dresses, coloured with natural dyes and ornamented with embroidery and needlework. Liberty was at the forefront of Aestheticism with their recognisable soft, drapeable silks, transparent textiles, and fabrics imported from parts of Asia and the Middle East. Their customers were an eclectic mix of women who wanted to dress artistically and stand out from the crowd. Liberty was the chosen resort of the artistic shopper. With archival materials and previously unpublished pattern books, Anna Buruma navigates Liberty’s role in artistic dress. Examining how their idiosyncratic fashions of Greek and Roman style evening dress and medieval tea gowns translated into late nineteenth and early twentieth century fashionable dress. Liberty sustained their popularity through good taste ... Unknown localization key: "more"

So this is permanence, edited by Jon Savage with a foreword by Deborah Curtis, presents the intensely personal writings of one of the most enigmatic and influential songwriters and performers of the late twentieth century, Joy Division''s Ian Curtis. The songs of Joy Division, infused with the energy of punk but steeped in a resigned longing, were born of Manchester in the late seventies - a once flourishing industrial city in decline. They were the songs too of Ian Curtis''s inner tragedies, as he battled depression, epilepsy and debilitating stage fright. Ian Curtis committed suicide in 1980, on the eve of the band''s first American tour. Interspersed with the lyrics are previously unpublished facsimile pages of Ian''s notebooks, which throw his highly emotive lyrics into fascinating relief and cast light on the creative process of this singularly poetic songwriter.

The definitive biography of Sir Ian McKellen from an acclaimed biographer In 2001, Ian McKellen put on the robe and pointed hat of a wizard named Gandalf and won a place in the hearts of Tolkien fans worldwide. Though his role in the film adaptation of Lord of the Rings introduced him to a new audience, McKellen had a thriving career a lifetime before his visit to Middle Earth. He made his West End acting debut in 1964 in James Saunders’s A Scent of Flowers, but it was in 1980 that he took Broadway by storm when he played Antonio Salieri in Peter Shaffer’s Tony-Award-winning play Amadeus.He has starred in over four hundred plays and films and he is that rare character: a celebrity whose distinguished political and social service has transcended his international fame to reach beyond the stage and screen. The breadth of his career—professional, personal and political—has been truly staggering: Macbeth (opposite Judi Dench), Iago, King Lear, Chekhov’s Sorin in The Seagull and Becket’s tramp Estragon (opposite Patrick Stewart) in Waiting for Godot.

Básník, prozaik a překladatel Jan Zábrana společně s Josefem Škvoreckým napsali tři detektivní příběhy, které se odehrávají v prvorepublikovém Československu: Vražda pro štěstí (1962), Vražda se zárukou (1964) a Vražda v zastoupení (1967). Ústřední postavou všech tří dílů je doktor Jaroslav Pivoňka, soukromé očko detektivní kanceláře Ostrozrak, který se z nezkušeného nováčka postupně vypracuje v opravdového kriminalistu. V pátrání a odhalování souvislostí mu - na způsob doktora Watsona - pomáhá jeho milá Boženka, která je na rozdíl od vystudovaného filozofa dívkou prostou, leč přirozeně inteligentní. Svým selským rozumem a ženským instinktem mnohdy přijde na to, co její vzdělaný přítel pomocí logiky a intelektu nedokáže rozluštit.

Audioknihu Vražda se zárukou napsal autor: Josef Škvorecký, Jan Zábrana, čte: Michal Bumbálek. Celková stopáž: 5 hodin. Září 1938. Nad Československem se stahují válečná mračna, zatímco v pražském Braníku dojde k záhadné vraždě. Hitler žádá Sudety a ve vile čp. 383 v ulici Nad myslivnou je nalezen zastřeleny pár. Major Československé armády Dušan Činovskyý a dcera ministerského rady Zuzana Bechyňová. Oba nazí, major na posteli, dívka na koberci. Vyšetřovatelé od počátku pochybují, že jde o pouhý vztahový mord, což naznačuje i název knihy. Vražda se zárukou.Dějiny se v mnoha detailech opakují. Na sklonku zimy 2022 čeká na pomoc západních demokracií Ukrajina napadená Ruskem, takže detektivka dostává s Putinovou invazí i aktuální rozměr. "Hitler nás letecky zničí," prorokují účastníci banketu v barrandovské vile na samém počátku Vraždy se zárukou. "Myslím, že Hitler se víc naparuje, než je skutečně silný. Hitlerova armáda nemá dostatečný výcvik. Bude stačit, když se Anglie s Francií za nás pevně postaví," oponují další hosté party. Úvahy, zda se Československo mělo německé invazi aktivně bránit, v detektivce pochopitelně zastiňuje jiná otázka. Kdo je vrahem majora a snové krásky? A je tu ještě jeden velký problém.

A fresh portrait of the man behind James Bond, and his enduring impact, by an award-winning biographer with unprecedented access to the Fleming family papers. Ian Fleming's greatest creation, James Bond, has had an enormous and ongoing impact on our culture. What Bond represents about ideas of masculinity, the British national psyche and global politics has shifted over time, as has the interpretation of the life of his author.But Fleming himself was more mysterious and subtle than anything he wrote. Ian's childhood with his gifted brother Peter and his extraordinary mother set the pattern for his ambition to be 'the complete man', and he would strive for the means to achieve this 'completeness' all his life. Only a thriller writer for his last twelve years, his dramatic personal life and impressive career in Naval Intelligence put him at the heart of critical moments in world history, while also providing rich inspiration for his fiction.Exceptionally well connected, and widely travelled, from the United States and Soviet Russia to his beloved Jamaica, Ian had access to the most powerful political figures at a time of profound change.

The essential introduction to the Middle Ages by the bestselling author of The Time Traveller''s Guide to Medieval EnglandWe tend to think of the Middle Ages as a dark, backward and unchanging time characterised by violence, ignorance and superstition. By contrast we believe progress arose from science and technological innovation, and that inventions of recent centuries created the modern world.We couldn''t be more wrong. As Ian Mortimer shows in this fascinating book, people''s horizons - their knowledge, experience and understanding of the world - expanded dramatically. Life was utterly transformed between 1000 and 1600, marking the transition from a warrior-led society to that of Shakespeare.Just as The Time Traveller''s Guide to Medieval England revealed what it was like to live in the fourteenth century, Medieval Horizons provides the perfect primer to the era as a whole. It outlines the enormous cultural changes that took place - from literacy to living standards, inequality and even the developing sense of self - thereby correcting misconceptions and presenting the period as a revolutionary age of fundamental importance in the development of the Western world.Praise for Ian Mortimer:''The endlessly inventive Ian Mortimer is the most remarkable medieval historian of our time'' - The Times

''Excellent... Mortimer''s erudition is formidable'' The TimesA time of exuberance, thrills, frills and unchecked bad behaviour...Ian Mortimer turns to what is arguably the most-loved period in British history - the Regency, or Georgian England.This is the age of Jane Austen and the Romantic poets; the paintings of John Constable and the gardens of Humphry Repton; Britain''s military triumphs at Trafalgar and Waterloo. It was perhaps the last age of true freedom before the arrival of the stifling world of Victorian morality.And like all periods in history, it was an age of many contradictions - where Beethoven''s thundering Fifth Symphony could premier in the same year that saw Jane Austen craft the delicate sensitivities of Persuasion.This is history at its most exciting, physical, visceral - the past not as something to be studied but as lived experience.

One day Ian Marchant, acclaimed author of books on music, railways and pubs, decided, as all men of a certain age must, to have a dig around his family history. Surprisingly quickly, a web search informed him that his seven-times-great great-grandfather, Thomas Marchant had left a detailed diary from 1714 to 1728. So far, so jolly ... Life-loving diarist Thom - who liked a drink and a game of cards - feels recognisably Marchant to Ian. With fascinating detail we learn about Thom''s family farm and fishponds; about dung, horses and mud; about beer, the wife''s nights out, his own job troubles and their shared worries for their children. But as Ian digs deeper beyond the Sussex diary''s bucolic portrait he discovers a subtext - a family descended from immigrants, with antiestablishment politics, who are struggling with illness, political instability and cash crises - just as their country does three centuries on. Rich and immersive, One Fine Day draws a living portrait of Marchant family life in the 1720s and how their England (rainy, muddy, politically turbulent, illnessridden) became the England of the 2020s.
