How We Understand the Beats (978-80-210-9048-4)

Elektronická kniha - ze série Spisy Filozofické fakulty Masarykovy univerzity, autor Antonín Zita, 202 stran, anglicky Kniha se zabývá srovnáním recepce autorů Beat Generation v USA a v Česku, a to ve dvou časových obdobích – v 50. a 60. letech 20. století a poté od 90. let až do současnosti. Zatímco samotné publikace Beat Generation autorů zůstaly nezměněné, kontexty těchto publikací byly zásadně odlišné: v USA byla díla autorů Beat Generation často redukována senzacechtivými kritiky na nevyzrálé vychvalování drog, sexu i násilí, v Československu naopak tito autoři získali přízeň čtenářů díky neobvyklosti svého literárního jazyka, kterou jejich próza a poezie představovaly na literárním trhu značně pokřiveném tezemi socialistického realismu. Tato studie tedy dokládá, jak mohou odlišné kontexty ovlivnit přístup čtenářů k literárnímu textu a jejich autorům, což ve výsledku pomáhá přeměnit daný text na odlišné umělecké dílo.

The World We Make - N.K. Jemisinová

Three-time Hugo Award-winning and New York Times bestselling author N.K. Jemisin crafts "a glorious fantasy" (Neil Gaiman) - a story of culture, identity, magic, and myths in contemporary New York City, in the final book of the Great Cities Duology.Every great city has a soul. A human avatar that embodies their city's heart and wields its magic. New York? She's got six.But all is not well in the city that never sleeps. Though Brooklyn, Manny, Bronca, Venezia, Padmini, and Neek have temporarily managed to stop the Woman in White from invading--and destroying the entire universe in the process--the mysterious capital "E" Enemy has more subtle powers at her disposal. A new candidate for mayor wielding the populist rhetoric of gentrification, xenophobia, and "law and order" may have what it takes to change the very nature of New York itself and take it down from the inside. In order to defeat him, and the Enemy who holds his purse strings, the avatars will have to join together with the other Great Cities of the world in order to bring her down for good and protect their world from complete destruction.The Great Cities DuologyThe City We BecameThe World We Make

World of Warcraft: Šaman - Paul Benjamin, Rocio Zucchiová

BLIZZARD ENTERTAINMENT hrdě představuje další zemí otřásající svazek ze série o povoláních ve World of Warcraft: Šaman! Zemětřesení. Ohně. Záplavy. Vichřice. Mezi azerothskými duchy elementů panuje chaos. Jedinou naději, jak jim zabránit, aby rozervali svět na kusy, představují šamani jako Muln Earthfury a ostatní členové utajovaného Zeměkruhu. Avšak když Mulnovy pokusy o ukonejšení elementů selže, chaotičtí duchové dál bez zábran pokračují ve svém řádění. Zeměkruhem se šíří pochybnosti a vyvstane znepokojující otázka: ztratili šamani svou schopnost rozmlouvat s elementy? Odpověď přichází v podobě příchodu Šotoy, tajuplného taurena, který ovládá elementy nikoli skrze uctivé prosby, nýbrž důraznými rozkazy. Jeho mocný druh šamanismu se selhávajícímu Zeměkruhu na první pohled jeví jako dar z nebes, avšak přijetí Šotoových způsobů by znamenalo vzdát se přesvědčení, která organizaci dlouhou dobu řídila. Zatímco se svět kolem nich hroutí, musí se Muln a Zeměkruh rozhodnout, zda je Šotoa hrdina… nebo kacíř. World of Warcraft: Šaman napsal Paul Benjamin (StarCraft: Frontline) a nakreslila Rocio Zucchiová (World of Warcraft: Rytíř smrti). Dílo prozkoumává bohatou tradici Zeměkruhu a stoické úsilí šamanů zklidnit vzpurné azerothské elementály – stejné pravěké síly, které sehrály zásadní roli v herním datadisku World of Warcraft: Cataclysm.

The Eternal Tao Te Ching - Hoff Benjamin

From the bestselling author of The Tao of Pooh, a uniquely authentic translation of the enduring Tao Te Ching based on the meanings of the ancient Chinese characters in use when the Taoist classic was written From Benjamin Hoff, the author of The Tao of Pooh and The Te of Piglet, which have sold millions of copies, comes a new translation of the Tao Te Ching. The original author (or authors, as Hoff makes the provocative claim that there may have been more than one) streamlined the folk religion of China down to its foundation and rebuilt it as a man-in-nature philosophy, incorporating his advanced spiritual, philosophical, social, and political ideas. Ever since its creation, the Tao Te Ching has stood alone among the world's writings. There was nothing like it before it appeared, and there is still nothing like it now. Unlike a good deal of Chinese writing, old and new, the Tao Te Ching makes no reference to specific individuals or events, whether of the then-past or then-present. It is not historical, nor classical; its world is the world of now. Laboring over the ancient text for seven years, Hoff tackled this project by following the same principles he learned while employed by a master restorer of valuable but damaged antique objects: Thoroughly research the history of the object; remove all misguided, historically incorrect alterations and repairs; patch and fill where necessary; match the new work to the old so seamlessly that no one will detect a difference in treatment; honor the materials and its design; and honor the tradition that has formed around the object over the years. This unique interpretation of the Tao Te Ching shows what is possible when a translator truly partners themselves with someone of another time, another place, and another language.

Measuring the World (184724114X)

Kniha - autor Daniel Kehlmann, 260 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná Measuring the World recreates the parallel but contrasting lives of two geniuses of the German Enlightenment - the naturalist and explorer Alexander von Humboldt and the mathematician and physicist Carl Friedrich Gauss. Towards the end of the 18th century, these two brilliant young Germans set out to measure the world. Humboldt, a Prussian aristocrat schooled for greatness, negotiates savannah and jungle, climbs the highest mountain then known to man, counts head lice on the heads of the natives, and explores every hole in the ground. Gauss, a man born in poverty who will be recognised as the greatest mathematician since Newton, does not even need to leave his home in Göttingen to know that space is curved. He can run prime numbers in his head, cannot imagine a life without women and yet jumps out of bed on his wedding night to jot down a mathematical...

Maniac - Benjamín Labatut

Nejnebezpečnějším vědeckým vynálezem 20. století byla atomová bomba, nyní jí šlape na paty umělá inteligence. Když sledujeme příběhy těchto dvou objevů dostatečně daleko do minulosti, zjistíme, že se protínají v osobě Johna von Neumanna, který bývá označován za nejchytřejšího člověka, jaký kdy žil. Maďar von Neumann byl zázračné dítě, jehož nadání lidem nahánělo strach. Jeho objevy přispěly k rozvoji kvantové mechaniky i genetiky. Založil teorii her, sestrojil první programovatelný počítač, který dostal jméno MANIAC, a přes účast na Oppenheimerově projektu Manhattan se dostal až k základům umělé inteligence. Labatut nás podobně jako ve své prvotině Strašlivá závrať nechává nahlédnout do mysli člověka, jehož vědecké objevy posouvají lidstvo kupředu, ale zároveň s sebou nesou hrozivé následky, jež nelze dohlédnout. Strhující příběh kombinující fakta a fikci konfrontuje čtenáře s nejhlubšími otázkami, kterým jako živočišný druh čelíme.

Maison Margiela Replica When The Rain Stops - EDT 100 ml

Replica When The Rain Stops od značky Maison Margiela je osvěžující, vodní toaletní voda pro ženy. Zelené tóny doplněné o bergamot a růžový pepř představují jiskřivý úvod, zatímco srdce zcela patří vodním tónům, které připomínají lehkost dešťových kapek, ve kterých se odráží smyslná vůně jasmínu a turecké růže. Kompozici uzavírá intenzivní zemitá směs mechu, pačuli a borovice. Vůně patří do kolekce Replica – tyto vůně mají univerzální sílu vyvolat vzpomínky na milovaná místa nebo příjemné okamžiky. Replica When The Rain Stops je inspirována pocitem klidu a obnovy, který přichází po letní přeháňce. Zachycuje okamžik, kdy dešťové kapky pomalu mizí z listů stromů a slunce se opět objevuje na obloze. Vůně evokuje atmosféru po dešti, kdy je vzduch plný svěžesti. Vůně byla uvedena na trh v roce 2021 a vytvořila ji Fanny Bal.

Being Human - Lewis Dartnell

'Illuminating' TIM MARSHALL, author of Prisoners of Geography'Refreshing' THOMAS HALLIDAY, author of OtherlandsBeing Human is history made flesh. It will change how you see the world. We’re a wonder of evolution, capable of incredible feats.But we’re also deeply flawed. Our bodies and minds often break, fail, and hinder us. To be human is to live with this extraordinary contradiction.So, to understand the course humanity has taken – from prehistoric times through the age of empire and into the modern era – we must understand who, and what, we are. Lewis Dartnell takes us on a mind-expanding journey across time to show how our biology has determined history. From the epidemic that brought Europe’s peasants freedom, to the health deficiency which gave rise to the world’s largest criminal organisation, to the cognitive biases that led to military catastrophes in Crimea and Iraq, we see how our unique nature shaped our relationships, economies and societies – and, importantly, how it continues to impact human progress today.'This book is quite literally wonderful' ED CONWAY, author of Material World'A wild ride' TIM HARFORD, author of How to Make the World Add Up'A gripping, red-blooded narrative from a master storyteller' JO MARCHANT, author of Cure

Strašlivá závrať - Benjamín Labatut

Bůh nehraje se světem kostky, prohlásil Albert Einstein. Na což by mu Benjamín Labatut odpověděl, že Bůh možná ne, ale ďábel ano. Strašlivá závrať je románem faktu o vědcích, kteří ve svých oborech učinili převratné objevy - Bohrovi, Heisenbergovi, Schrödingerovi a dalších -, došli však na hranice lidského chápání a poprvé v dějinách dali lidstvu moc zničit sebe sama. Třeba německý chemik Fritz Heber objevil umělá hnojiva, která zachránila lidstvo před hladomory. Vynalezl ale také bojový plyn yperit, který zabil tisíce vojáků v zákopech první světové války, což jeho manželku dohnalo k sebevraždě, již spáchala před jeho očima. Podobně atomy, které roztrhaly Hirošimu a Nagasaki na kusy, nerozštěopily šikovné ruce generálů, ale skupiny fyziků vyzbrojených hrstí rovnic. Dramatický příběh Benjamína Labatuta o určujících momentech dějin vědy nás vrhá do vzrušujícího území mezi fakty a fikcí, pokrokem a zkázou, genialitou a šílenstvím a staví nás před otázku, jestli díky vědě lépa rozumíme světu, nebo ho naopak ztrácíme. Za svou knihu byl v roce 2021 nominován do finále Mezinárodní Bookerovy ceny.

Talking to Strangers: What We Should Know about the People We Don't Know (0316462918)

Kniha - autor Malcolm Gladwell, 400 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná The routine traffic stop that ends in tragedy. The spy who spends years undetected at the highest levels of the Pentagon. The false conviction of Amanda Knox. Why do we so often get other people wrong? Why is it so hard to detect a lie, read a face or judge a stranger's motives? Through a series of encounters and misunderstandings - from history, psychology and infamous legal cases - Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an intellectual adventure into the darker side of human nature, where strangers are never simple and misreading them can have disastrous consequences. No one challenges our shared assumptions like Malcolm Gladwell. Here he uses stories of deceit and fatal errors to cast doubt on our strategies for dealing with the unknown, inviting us to rethink our thinking in these troubled times.
