State of Emergency - Jeremy Tiang
Siew Li leaves her husband and young children to fight for freedom in the jungles of Malaya. Decades later, a Malaysian journalist returns to her homeland to uncover the truth of a massacre committed during the Emergency, while Siew Li''s son uncovers the truth of his family''s past. Informed by years of painstaking research, Jeremy Tiang''s debut novel dives into the tumultuous days of leftist movements and political detentions in Singapore and Malaysia. It follows an extended family from the 1940s to the present day as they navigate the choppy political currents of the region. State of Emergency questions whether we can grasp the truth after the fact. And yet, in the very telling of its interlocking stories, it reaffirms the importance of trying.

Šest historií venkovského života - Jang Ťiang
V červenci 1970 byla spisovatelka a překladatelka Jang Ťiang spolu s manželem a dalšími kolegy z Čínské akademie společenských věd poslána na převýchovu do školy pro kádry 7. května. Šest historií venkovského života tvoří šest vzpomínek na těžké a nezřídka absurdní chvíle, které zde během dvou let zažila. Kulturní revoluce (1966-1976) byla pro většinu vzdělaných lidí v Číně rozčarováním a obdobím ponížení, v řadě horších případů i utrpení. Mnohým přinesla naprosto zbytečnou smrt. Je to období, ke kterému se ve své tvorbě neustále vrací řada čínských autorů. Jang Ťiang odkazem na tradiční čínské dílo Šest historií prchavého života dodává svým Šesti historiím další rozměr, a čtenářům tak odhaluje další úhel pohledu na Kulturní revoluci.

Dreadful Desires - Charlie Yi Zhang
In Dreadful Desires Charlie Yi Zhang examines how the Chinese state deploys affective notions of love to regulate the population and secure China’s place in the global economy. Zhang shows how the state frames love as a set of desires that encompass heteronormative intimacy, familial and communal attachment, upward mobility, and private property ownership. These desires-as circulated in performance in the nationalistic ceremony, same-sex romantic fan fiction, the wildly popular reality television dating show If You Are the One, and the cult of patriarchal personality around Xi Jinping-are explicitly based in oppressive systems of gender, class, and sexuality. Zhang contends that such desires connect love to economic survival and gender normativity in ways that underwrite Chinese neoliberalism at the expense of individual flourishing. By outlining how state-framed forms of love create desires that cannot be fulfilled, Zhang places China at the forefront of using affective attachments to nation, leader, and family in the global shifts toward exploitation and authoritarianism.

Konfuciánský ústavní systém - Ťiang Čching
Ťiang Čching (Jiang Qing v přepisu v pchin-jinu, narozen 1953, žije v Číně) je považován za jednoho z nejvýznamnějších konfuciánských filosofů současnosti. Proslul svojí koncepcí ústavního konfucianismu neboli politického konfucianismu. Podobně jako se v Evropě v aktualizované formě navazuje na antické Řecko a Řím a na křesťanství a osvícenství, v Číně dochází zvláště v posledních desetiletích k navazování na prvky tradiční čínské civilizace, především na konfuciánské motivy, jež se v Číně uplatňují v různých interpretacích již dva a půl tisíce let. Filosofií Ťianga Čchinga se proto zabývají nejen konzervativci, ale v modernizačním čtení také socialisté a liberálové - a to jak teoretici, tak politici a další aktéři veřejné sféry. Aktualizace a znovupromýšlení tradic (v tomto případě konfucianismu) jsou důležitým předpokladem pro definování procesu modernizace, přičemž poznání nezápadních civilizací je důležité také pro sebeporozumění "Západu". Z těchto předpokladů vycházel i tým překladatelů této knihy, který sice nezastává konfuciánskou filosofii Ťianga Čchinga, ale je si vědom toho, že v rámci plurality názorů je důležité poznat odlišná významná teoretická stanoviska. Toto poznání je nutným předpokladem interkulturní komunikace. Texty této knihy editoval kanadský liberální filosof Daniel A. Bell, aby je díky nakladatelství Princeton University Press zpřístupnil západním čtenářům. Snad budou objevné také pro české ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Tieň jin-jangu - Paolo Zhang
Popredný umelec má zvyčajne potrebu vyjadriť sa pomocou básni z dvoch pohnútok: 1) aby pretavil do hutnej esencie slov zrnká svojej ľudskej skúsenosti a múdrosti, o ktoré sa túži podeliť s inými ľuďmi, a čitatelia po takých básňach siahajú najmä preto, aby z nich nabrali silu a odvahu pre svoj vlastný život; 2) alebo ako dokument o sebe a svojej ľudskej trýzni. Nuž, keď som dočítala poslednú stranu tejto zbierky básní, pochopila som, že je básnickým svedectvom toho druhého druhu. Celú jin-jangovú cestu svojho nového európskeho života v nej Paolo Zhang zdokumentoval modernými básnickými obrazmi, ale aj tým, ako v obrazoch odkrýva svoje rany: "Zrúcané domy možno znova postaviť / ale čo s ruinami v ľudskej duši?" pýta sa nás dnes už zrelý muž s dušou vystrašeného dieťaťa. A sám si na to odovzdane odpovedá: "Horúčka mi patrí, pretože sa bojím zamrznutia." Zároveň dovoľuje duši, aby mu vydala zo svojich hlbín spomienky na jeho dávnych predkov, aby nakoniec unikol zúfalstvu tým, že zmierlivo pripustí: "azda je svet naozaj tieňom jin-jangu". A vyznáva sa, akoby odprosoval svoju životnú lásku, pre ktorú kedysi opustil rodnú krajinu:"Viem, nedokážem splniť svoju prísahu nemám krídla nemôžem vzlietnuť a vziať ťa so sebou som iba vlk, ...

A world where the opulence of Beijing marks a new cultural imperialism, as wealthy urbanites flirt with interactive death in illegal speakeasies, and where Arctic research stations and communes on Mars are haunted by their own fragile dangers.A world of fear and hope, of global disaster and slow healing, where progress can only be found in the cracks of a crumbling hegemony.

A collection of essays, fictions, and interviews exploring the weird temporalities of finance and catastrophe.Once, financial practitioners plied a hybrid trade as hydrologists, star-gazers, and weather-watchers who sought to discover the natural laws of value and exchange as they did the divine order of an unchanging nature. Today, corporate firms hire trend forecasters and scenario planners to play out strategic fictions in virtual worlds. Hurricane insurance markets simulate a turbulent climate to offer investment instruments to hedge against the risks of the stock market. And for financial astrologers operating in the city of London, celestial motions provide a cosmic map that orients the mood of terrestrial markets.Bringing together artists, researchers, and interstitial practitioners, Catastrophe Time! pays attention to the conditions of speculative knowledge on an increasingly volatile planet. Traversing a gray zone between rigorous research and operative science fictions, its contributors question how practices of speculation may transform, undermine, and at times exceed, the worlds they set out to model.Edited by artist Gary Zhexi Zhang, Catastrophe Time! explores the power of temporal technologies—whether currencies, conspiracies, or simulation models—to shape reality through fiction. By bringing together researchers and writers working at the boundaries of temporal practices, including Diann Bauer, Philip Grant, ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Round the Bend - Jeremy Clarkson
Jeremy Clarkson gets really riled in Round the Bend.What''s it like to drive a car that''s actively trying to kill you?This and many other burning questions trouble Jeremy Clarkson as he sets out to explore the world from the safety of four wheels. Avoiding the legions of power-crazed traffic wombles attempting to block highway and byway, he he:* Shows how the world of performance cars may be likened to Battersea Dogs Home* Reveals why St Moritz may be the most bonkers town in all of the world* Reminds us that Switzerland is so afraid of snow that any flakes falling on the road are immediately arrested* Argues that washing a car is a waste of timeFunny, globe-trotting, irreverent and sometimes downright rude, Round the Bend is packed with curious and fascinating but otherwise hopelessly useless stories and facts about everything under the sun (and just occasionally cars). It''s Jeremy Clarkson at his brilliant best.Praise for Jeremy Clarkson''Brilliant . . . laugh-out-loud'' Daily Telegraph''Outrageously funny . . . will have you in stitches'' Time Out''Very funny . . .

After struggling with depression during her senior year of high school, Ocean moves to New York City, where she has been accepted at a prestigious university. But Ocean feels so emotionally raw and unmoored (and uncertain about what is real and what is not) that she decides to defer and live off her savings until she can get herself together. She also decides not to tell her mother (whom she loves very much but doesn’t want to disappoint) that she is deferring—at least until she absolutely must.In New York, Ocean ...

The Origins of COVID-19 - Zhang Li
A new strain of coronavirus emerged sometime in November 2019, and within weeks a cluster of patients began to be admitted to hospitals in Wuhan with severe pneumonia, most of them linked to the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market. China's seemingly effective containment of the first stage of the epidemic, in glaring contrast with the uncontrolled spread in Europe and the United States, was heralded as a testament to the Chinese Communist Party's unparalleled command over the biomedical sciences, population, and economy. Conversely, much academic and public debate about the origins of the virus focuses on the supposedly "backwards" cultural practice of consuming wild animals and the perceived problem of authoritarianism suppressing information about the outbreak until it was too late. The Origins of COVID-19, by Li Zhang, shifts debate away from narrow cultural, political, or biomedical frameworks, emphasizing that we must understand the origins of emerging diseases with pandemic potential (such as SARS and COVID-19) in the more complex and structural entanglements of state-making, science and technology, and global capitalism. She argues that both narratives, that of China's victory and the racist depictions of its culpability, do not address—and even aggravate—these larger forces that degrade the environment and increase the ...

Mauled - Jeremy Evans
An inspiring true-life survival story set in the remote backcountry of the Canadian Rockies.In August 2017, 32-year-old Jeremy Evans endured multiple ferocious attacks by a protective female grizzly bear while hunting in the Alberta wilderness.Jeremy’s injuries were massive, his scalp and face destroyed, an eye and his jaw dangling down. The tendons on one leg had been fully severed during the mauling. His hands were damaged where he had physically fought the bear. It was more than a dozen kilometres to where he had parked his truck in darkness early that morning and absolutely no one was near. Thoughts of his wife and their eight-month-old daughter consumed Jeremy as he stumbled and crawled for hours back to his truck, before driving himself several kilometres to a backcountry lodge for help. All the while, Jeremy thought of his young family and the upcoming sixth wedding anniversary that he feared he might never be able to celebrate.Mauled carefully details what happened deep in an Alberta forest where few modern humans tread. Jeremy’s miraculous recovery and life lessons learned when so close to death show that human determination can defy the greatest of odds, and that setting small goals along the road to ...

Diddly Squat - Jeremy Clarkson
Welcome to Clarkson's farm. It's an idyllic spot, offering picturesque views across the Cotswolds, bustling hedgerows, woodlands and natural springs. Jeremy always liked the idea being a farmer. But, while he was barrelling around the world having more fun with cars than was entirely reasonable, it seemed obvious that the actual, you know, farming was much better left to someone else Then one day he decided he would do the farming himself. After all, how hard could it be? Well . . . Faced with suffocating red tape, biblical weather, local objections, a global pandemic and his own frankly staggering ignorance of how to 'do farming', Jeremy soon realises that turning the farm round is going to take more than splashing out on a massive tractor. Fortunately, there's help at hand from a large and (mostly) willing team including girlfriend Lisa, Kaleb the Tractor Driver, Cheerful Charlie, Ellen the Shepherd and Gerald, his Head of Security and Dry Stone Waller. Between them they enthusiastically cultivate crops, rear livestock and hens, keep bees, bottle spring water and open a farm shop. But profits remain elusive. And yet while the farm may be called Diddly Squat for good reason, Jeremy soon begins ... Unknown localization key: "more"

And the durum wheat.Then the oats turned the colour of a hearing aid and the mushrooms went mouldy. Farming sheep, pigs and cows was hardly more lucrative. Jeremy would be better off trying to breed ostriches.But in the face of uncooperative weather, the relentless realities of the agricultural economy, bureaucracy, a truculent local planning department and the world's persistent refusal to recognise his ingenuity and genius, our hero's not beaten yet.Not while the farm shop's still doing a roaring trade in candles that smell like his knacker hammock, he isn't.On the face of it, the challenges of making a success of Diddly Squat are enough to have you weeping into your (Hawkstone) beer, but misery loves company and in girlfriend Lisa, Farm Manager Kaleb, Cheerful Charlie and Gerald his Head of Security Jeremy knows he's got the best.

Vím, že máš duši - Jeremy Clarkson
Motoristický pořad Top Gear sleduje po celém světě asi 350 milionů diváků, momentálně běží i na českém kanálu Prima Cool. Za jeho mimořádnou popularitou stojí zejména hlavní moderátor Jeremy Clarkson, autor této knihy. Začal ji psát, aby se vyznal ze své vášně pro auta a také aby zjistil, co vlastně lidi k nejrůznějším strojům tolik přitahuje. A k čemu došel? Že ty nejvíce fascinující automobily, letadla, ponorky, raketoplány a další technické výtvory mají jedno společné: za každým z nich najdeme nějakého vizionářského inženýra či nadšeného konstruktéra, který svému stroji vdechl "duši" a právě ta je tím, co nás ke strojům poutá. Mimoto se od Clarksona dozvíme některé zásadní informace, například kde se nejlíp schovat v případě nukleární války či kdo by vyhrál, kdyby se v souboji utkali Superman, James Bond a Terminátor. Jeremy Clarkson (1960) je britská moderátorská hvězda a autor dvanácti knižních bestsellerů. Miluje rychlá auta, která velmi svérázným způsobem testuje, představuje a komentuje ve svém pořadu Top Gear. Miliony fanoušků oceňují jeho břitký humor, který se nezastaví před ničím a před nikým. Svou obrovskou popularitu vysvětluje lapidárně: "Žijeme v nudném světě a náš pořad je proto vítanou změnou."
