Simone Weilová (1909–1943), známá jako „patronka všech outsiderů“, byla jednou z nejpozoruhodnějších myslitelek dvacátého století, filozofkou, která skutečně žila podle svých politických a etických ideálů. Kniha Roberta Zaretského ukazuje nově stránky Weilové – přísnou racionalistku, která se oddávala zároveň vlastnímu typu mysticismu; revolucionářku se slabostí pro anarchismus, která však věřila v hierarchii práce; a humanistku, která lidské potřeby a povinnosti nadřazovala lidským právům. Kniha Zneklidňující Simone Weilová ctí složitost jejího myšlení a vypovídá o tom, proč nepřestává fascinovat čtenáře i dnes.*****Kniha Roberta Zaretského představuje myšlení Simone Weilové v úplnosti, ať už jde o její chápání vzdoru, nebo o její klíčový myšlenkový motiv, jímž je hledání kořenů na pozadí rozpadajícího se světa. Autor píše srozumitelně, což není snadné, protože Weilová je místy obtížně srozumitelná: v jejím myšlení se objevují na první pohled nesmiřitelné rozpory.Miroslav Petříček

Known as the “patron saint of all outsiders,” Simone Weil (1909–43) was one of the twentieth century’s most remarkable thinkers, a philosopher who truly lived by her political and ethical ideals. In a short life framed by the two world wars, Weil taught philosophy to lycée students and organized union workers, fought alongside anarchists during the Spanish Civil War and labored alongside workers on assembly lines, joined the Free French movement in London and died in despair because she was not sent to France to help the Resistance. Though Weil published little during her life, after her death, thanks largely to the efforts of Albert Camus, hundreds of pages of her manuscripts were published to critical and popular acclaim. While many seekers have been attracted to Weil’s religious thought, Robert Zaretsky gives us a different Weil, exploring her insights into politics and ethics, and showing us a new side of Weil that balances her contradictions—the rigorous rationalist who also had her own brand of Catholic mysticism; the revolutionary with a soft spot for anarchism yet who believed in the hierarchy of labor; and the humanitarian who emphasized human needs and obligations over human rights. Reflecting on the relationship between thought and action in Weil’s life, The Subversive Simone Weil honors the complexity of Weil’s thought and speaks to why it matters and continues to fascinate readers today.  Â

Francúzsku filozofku, mystičku, odborársku aktivistku Simone Weilovú (1909-1943), ktorej celým dielom preniká túžba po „poznaní celou dušou“, označil Albert Camus za „jediného veľkého ducha našej doby“. Filozofia podľa nej „nenapreduje, nevyvíja sa“, to, čo je v nej najpodstatnejšie, je jednota a totožnosť skutočnej múdrosti naprieč časom, čiže dotyk s večnosťou. Preto Weilová môže odmietnuť konceptuálne systematizácie, v ktorých sa skrýva totalitárna a napokon celkom imaginárna ambícia racionality na obsiahnutie celej Skutočnosti.Zakorenenosť, jeden z dvoch najvýznamnejších a zároveň posledný autorkin text, ostal pre jej smrť nedokončený. Ako pri mnohých Weilovej textoch dejinné a politické udalosti slúžia autorke ako východisko a matéria pre filozofickú reflexiu. Z tohto hlbokého, inšpiratívneho diela presvitá Weilovej snaha poskytnúť tým, ktorí budú riadiť povojnovú obnovu Francúzska a určovať jeho ďalšie smerovanie, zreteľné, ušľachtilé a hrubou silou nepoškvrnené kritériá pre vedenie ich pôsobenia. Ich zvrchovanou korunou je pre autorku Boh v zmysle platónskeho Dobra, ktoré jediné môže byť hlavným regulatívom skutočne ľudskej spoločnosti a súčasne predstavuje horizont pre naplnenie a prekročenie individuálnej ľudskej existencie.

Krátkosť pozemskej púte francúzskej filozofky, mystičky, odborárskej aktivistky Simone Weilovej (1909 - 1943), ktorú Albert Camus označil za „jediného veľkého ducha našej doby“, akoby bola úmerná hĺbke jej záberu, zračiacej sa v jej textoch. Súc od detstva vedená či vydaná napospas vysokému nároku na obnaženosť a čistotu vlastných postojov, dala neskôr tomuto imperatívu tvar vo svojich textoch vďaka rozsiahlemu vzdelaniu a neústupčivo, ba voči sebe samej neľútostne pestovanej schopnosti analyzovať „ľudskú mechaniku“. Filozofia podľa nej „nenapreduje, nevyvíja sa“, to, čo je v nej najpodstatnejšie, je jednota a totožnosť skutočnej múdrosti naprieč časom, čiže dotyk s večnosťou. Preto Weilová môže odmietnuť konceptuálne systematizácie, v ktorých sa skrýva totalitárna a napokon celkom imaginárna ambícia racionality na obsiahnutie celej Skutočnosti. Weilovej ide o „poznanie celou dušou“ a jej zošity, ktorých drobná časť tvorí túto knihu, vypovedajú o poctivom a vytrvalom zápase ľudskej bytosti o vlastnú očistu a odkrytie absolútneho základu svojho bytia. Autorom výberu z Weilovej zápiskov, ako aj samotného názvu Tiaž a milosť, bol jej priateľ, katolícky orientovaný spisovateľ, básnik a filozof Gustave Thibon (1903 - 2001).

Kniha Duchovná autobiografia (Výber z textov a listov) prináša v jednom zväzku texty z posledných rokov autorkinho krátkeho života, v ktorých načrtáva obraz vlastnej duchovnej skúsenosti a presvedčenia, ktoré nie je založené na náboženských dogmách, ale na poctivom intelektuálnom skúmaní a na oddanosti prameňu, vyvierajúcemu v každom ľudskom srdci.„Vždy som verila, že pre tých, ktorí žijú správne, je smrť okamihom, keď na nekonečne malý zlomok času vstúpi do duše čistá, obnažená, večná pravda. Môžem povedať, že som nikdy netúžila po nijakom inom dobre. Myslím si, že život, ktorý vedie k tomuto dobru, neurčuje iba všeobecná morálka, ale že pre každého človeka spočíva aj v slede skutkov a udalostí, ktoré sú výsostne osobné a natoľko záväzné, že ten, kto ich nevykoná, minie cieľ.“ Simone Weilová, listy otcovi Perrinovi

V království, kde Hlavy vládnou a Ruce trpí nespokojeností, se zdá, že spravedlnost zmizela. Proč se Hlavy povyšují nad Rukami? A jak může malá holčička, dcera samotného krále, změnit svět? Myšlenky Simone Weilové přináší do tohoto poetického příběhu otázky o moci, spravedlnosti a odvaze naslouchat svědomí.

Nové CD album Robert Křesťan & Druhá tráva - Díl první (2021) - Přední česká nadžánrová kapela Druhá tráva vydává po dlouhých devíti letech nové řadové album. Desetipísňová kolekce nazvaná jednoduše Díl první je součástí dvojalbového projektu, jehož druhá část vyjde příští rok, kdy skupina oslaví 30 let na scéně. Na aktuální nahrávce Druhá tráva přirozeně mixuje svůj autorský materiál s převzatými skladbami. Ty do češtiny přebásnil frontman kapely Robert Křesťan. V diskografii skupiny je Díl první výjimečným počinem i kvůli tomu, že na nahrávku dohlížel Brit Eddie Stevens, známý producentskou prací pro respektované kapely. Podařilo se mu umocnit již tak velmi osobitý zvuk Druhé trávy a přirozeně a nerušivě jej obohatit o zvuky, často typické pro elektronickou muziku či jiné žánry. 1.

Rebel Music is a tribute to one of the greatest legends in world music, Bob Marley. In 1975, Kate Simon first photographed Bob Marley and the Wailers at the Lyceum in London, where the now-legendary live performance of ‘No Woman No Cry’ was recorded. They then collaborated throughout the Seventies, with Simon shooting some of the most intimate, enduring and emblematic images ever taken of Marley, including his iconic Kaya album cover. Simon captured it all: portraits of the reggae greats of the Seventies, such as Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry, Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh; the Exodus Tour, on the road with Bob Marley and The Wailers as they performed across Europe; and the One Love Peace Concert, where Bob famously united Jamaica’s opposing political leaders. Ultimately, in 1981, Simon would ride with the funeral cortege from Kingston to St Ann and Bob Marley’s final resting place. Rebel Music contains over 400 photographs from Simon’s archives, many published here for the first time. Introduced by Patti Smith, with a foreword by Lenny Kravitz and afterword by Keith Richards, a cast of 24 contributors join Simon in sharing the stories behind the images, including ex-Wailers guitarist Junior Marvin and bass player and band leader Aston ‘Family Man’ Barrett; musicians such as Junior Delgado, Steve Jordan, Paul Simonon and Bruce Springsteen; filmmaker Don Letts and producer Danny Sims; and Island Records founder, Chris Blackwell.

An unforgettable tribute to the unbreakable bond between a father and sonWhen Simon McDermott first noticed his dad Ted’s sudden flares of temper and fits of forgetfulness, he couldn’t have guessed what lay ahead. Then came the devastating, inevitable diagnosis of Alzheimer’s. The dad Simon knew seemed to be drifting further away, and he had no idea how to reach him.Then, one day in the car, Simon hit play on Ted’s favourite song. And just like that, they were simply two mates driving around Blackburn, singing at the top of their lungs. That moment would change the course of their lives forever.Simon filmed their adventure, uploaded the video to YouTube and woke up to messages, tweets and his phone ringing off the hook. Their carpool karaoke had gone viral all the way across the globe.But a record deal, Pride of Britain Awards, over £130,000 raised for The Alzheimer’s Society and a Top 10 single later, Simon was still losing Ted. That’s when he made a decision. His Dad – the storyteller of his childhood and his best friend – couldn’t tell his own story, so Simon would tell it for him. This is that story.Full of poignant moments, the ups and downs of family life and treasured memories, The Songaminute Man is a story of two halves: a celebration of the man Ted was, and a powerful and moving account of caring for a loved one.

The idea that it was still in her towel was something I had drawn strength from. I thought each time I opened it some of Nina Simone’s spirit would vanish. In many ways that thought was more important than the gum itself.On Thursday 1 July, 1999, Dr Nina Simone gave a rare performance as part of Nick Cave''s Meltdown Festival. After the show, in a state of awe, Warren Ellis crept onto the stage, took Dr Simone''s piece of chewed gum from the piano, wrapped it in her stage towel and put it in a Tower Records bag. The gum remained with him for twenty years; a sacred totem, his creative muse, a conduit that would eventually take Ellis back to his childhood and his relationship with found objects, growing in significance with every passing year.Nina Simone’s Gum is about how something so small can form beautiful connections between people. It is a story about the meaning we place on things, on experiences, and how they become imbued with spirituality. It is a celebration of artistic process, friendship, understanding and love.

NEWBERY HONOR AWARD • LONGLISTED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD • SCHNEIDER FAMILY BOOK AWARD HONOR • FINALIST FOR THE AUDIE AWARD FOR BEST MIDDLE GRADE AUDIOBOOK OF THE YEAR“Funny, poignant and—most important—hopeful.” —New York TimesSimon O’Keeffe’s biggest claim to fame should be the time his dad accidentally gave a squirrel a holy sacrament. Or maybe the alpaca disaster that went viral on YouTube. But the story the whole world wants to tell about Simon is the one he’d do anything to forget: the one starring Simon as a famous survivor of gun violence at school.Two years after the infamous event, twelve-year-old Simon and his family move to the National Quiet Zone—the only place in America where the internet is banned. Instead of talking about Simon, the astronomers who flock to the area are busy listening for signs of life in space. And when Simon makes a friend who’s determined to give the scientists what they’re looking for, he’ll finally have the chance to spin a new story for the world to tell. Simon Sort of Says, the Newbery Honor-winning novel by Erin Bow, is a breathtaking testament to the lasting echoes of trauma, the redemptive power of humor, and the courage it takes to move forward without forgetting the past.INCLUDES DISCUSSION QUESTIONS AND AN INTERVIEW WITH THE AUTHOR

Jupiter''s Travels -Ted Simon''s astonishing 4 year motorbike journey around the world The book that inspired Ewan McGregor''s Long Way RoundIn the late 1970s Ted Simon set off on a Triumph and rode 63,000 miles over four years through fifty-four countries in a journey that took him around the world. Through breakdowns, prison, war, revolutions, disasters and a Californian commune, he travelled into the depths of fear and reached the heights of euphoria.He met astonishing people and was treated as a spy, a welcome stranger and even a god. For Simon the trip became a journey into his own soul, and for many others - including bikers Charley Boorman and Ewan McGrergor - it provides an inspiration they will never forget.This classic text, which has informed a whole genre of travel writing in the thirty years since it was first published, will never be bettered for sheer adventure, passion, humour and honesty.Brought up in England by a German mother and a Romanian father, Ted Simon found himself impelled by an insatiable desire to explore the world. It led him to abandon an early scientific career in favour of journalism, and he has worked for several newspapers and magazines on Fleet Street and elsewhere. Ted Simon is also the author of Riding Home and The Gypsy in Me.

James Baldwin used to tell Nina Simone, "This is the world you have made for yourself, now you have to live in it." Simone has created for herself a world of magnificent peaks. Often compared to Billie Holiday and Edith Piaf, Simone is known as one of the greatest singers of her generation. She has recorded forty-three albums, ranging from blues to jazz to folk, and her hits like "I Loves You, Porgy," "My Baby Just Cares for Me," "I Put a Spell on You," and "Mississippi Goddam" have confirmed her as an enduring force in popular music. Her song "Young, Gifted, and Black" became the anthem for the Civil Rights Movement and thrust her beyond international stardom into the center of activism. But such worlds as Simone''s are not without their grim valleys: disastrous marriages, arrest and the threat of imprisonment, mental breakdown, poverty, and attempted suicide. She has survived these trials and continues to perform throughout Europe and the United States. With undiminished passion and in her unconquerable voice, this is Nina Simone''s powerful memoir of her tempestuous life.

Simon se přesouvá do Evropy, aby zde načerpal informace a pokusil se zlomit zašifrovanou zprávu, která by mohla... Orákulum nabízí Simonovi své prostory a rozsáhlou knihovnu plnou temných textů. Cílem je najít cokoliv, čím by dokázal Jinxe povolat, vyvázat Izáka z jeho moci a zároveň zajistit, že ho nestráví kletba, kterou na něm zanechal Veripula. Jediným vodítkem je flash disk, který mu zanechala Sára. Obsahuje tajemný kód, který Simon není schopen přečíst. Možná je v Orákulu někdo, kdo to zvládne. Co disk ale skrývá? Tajemný rituál? Pekelné zaklínadlo? A proč se zdá, že má Orákulum vlastní tajemství, která se Simonem není ochotno sdílet? Pátá kniha o okultním právníkovi nás zavede do Itálie. Zde se Simon setkává se starým známým Harveyem a zjišťuje, že celá jeho dosavadní praxe nejspíš není nic víc než jen špičkou...

Audiokniha: Jak vybuduji stabilní a a výkonný tým, ve kterém všichni usilují o dosažení společného cíle? Kde nepanuje cynismus a sobectví? Kde jsou si kolegové oporou? Simon Sinek, autor bestselleru Začněte s proč, studoval množství firem, v jejichž čele stojí lídři, kterým více než na sobě a na krátkodobých ziscích záleží na zaměstnancích. Své poznatky pak zpracoval do nové knihy Lídři jedí poslední, kde se jimi můžete inspirovat i vy. Armáda má jasno: důstojníci jedí poslední! Co je v jídelně spíše symbolickým gestem, dostává na bitevním poli vážnější rozměr. Ti nejlepší lídři obětují vlastní pohodlí a bezpečí pro dobro těch, kterým velí. Budují ve své firmě důvěru, pocit jistoty a podporují spolupráci. Jejich zaměstnanci pak táhnou za jeden provaz a dokážou čelit vnějším výzvám. Firmy jsou stabilní a dlouhodobě úspěšné. Tento princip používá lidstvo od dob lovců a sběračů a Simon Sinek ukazuje, že platí stále, možná víc než kdy jindy. Simon Sinek (1973) Simon Sinek je britsko-americký autor, motivační řečník a marketingový konzultant. Je autorem světových bestsellerů: „Začněte s PROČ“, „Lídři jedí poslední“ a „Objevte své PROČ“. Sinek zformuloval a popularizoval koncept „zlatého kruhu“, v jehož středu stojí „proč" - vnitřní smysl existence nebo práce jednotlivce. Vzděláním je etnograf, a tak ho nepřestávají fascinovat lidé a organizace. Spolupracuje se společností Ernst&Young, jíž pomáhá měnit firemní kulturu, nebo s renomovanou RAND Corporation. Spolupracuje nebo spolupracoval i s dalšími firmami a organizacemi, mezi nimi figurují například Microsoft, Disney, Mars, KPMG, Pfizer nebo americká armáda. Gustav Bubník (1962) Gustav Bubník je český televizní herec a dabér, syn hokejisty Augustina Bubníka.

Audiokniha: Z komentáře Vladimíra Justla k původnímu LP albu 1118 4193 "Josef Šimon Pouštní pták (na útesech rocků)" vydaného v roce 1987 v Supraphonu a nyní vycházejícímu poprvé digitálně: Řekneme-li básníci jazzové inspirace, vybaví se nám celá plejáda jmen autorů několika generací různých národů, nejčastěji američtí a angličtí beatníci, sovětští básníci z generace Vozněsenského, z našich především "bluesový" Josef Kainar a "ragtimový" Václav Hrabě. Básníci rockové inspirace není ještě zavedený pojem, a přece už je u nás autor, jemuž toto označení (nebudeme-li je považovat za vyčerpávající) patří plným právem. Je to JOSEF ŠIMON (nar. 1948), který vydal dosud pět sbírek básní: Snídaně v automatu (1976), Asfaltoví holubi (1978), Český den (1979), Pouštní pták (1981), "Ať člověk". Melancholická kytara (1982). Šestá knížka s názvem Vyvolávač by měla vyjít ve stejné době jako tato gramofonová deska...Stejně "totálně" jako svět a ženu chápe Šimon i umění. Je mu celistvým postojem ke skutečnosti, jeho zdrojem je rozum i cit. Stejně tak slovo: je mu nejen slovem psaným, mluveným či zpívaným, ale především prostředkem tvorby. Šimon je alergický na slova "skleníková", touží po ztotožnění, po osobní výpovědi. Proto ho láká hovořit své verše a docela je i zpívat. Je v tom i odmítání cizích mystifikací z interpretace vytváří prvek uměleckého obrazu. V tomto smyslu představuje Šimona právě tato gramofonová deska. Je to - zdá se - experiment. Ale má něco do sebe: jde o totální výpověď, kde hudba není doplňkem, ozdobou, náhodností, ale ani funkční možností je víc: nutností, tvoří se slovem dvojhlas, jednotu, společný svět....
