eBook: The Avant-Postman explores a broad range of innovative postwar writing in France, Britain, and the United States. Taking James Joyce’s \"revolution of the word\" in Ulysses and Finnegans Wake as a joint starting point, David Vichnar draws genealogical lines through the work of more than fifty writers up to the present, including Alain Robbe-Grillet, B. S. Johnson, William Burroughs, Christine Brooke-Rose, Georges Perec, Kathy Acker, Iain Sinclair, Hélène Cixous, Alan Moore, David Foster Wallace, and many others. Centering the exploration around five writing strategies employed by Joyce—narrative parallax, stylistic metempsychosis, concrete writing, forgery, and neologising the logos—the book reveals the striking continuities and developments from Joyce’s day to our own.

První vydání překladu spisovatelky a básnířky Věry Linhartové, který vznikl na přelomu let 1970/71."K setkání s textem Giacomo Joyce pro mne došlo v pravou chvíli: na rozhraní dvou jazyků, na rozhraní dvou světů. [...] Jakkoli se to může zdát paradoxní, pro mne je zcela jisté, že práce na překladu Giacomo Joyce, který je pro mne na dlouhou dobu mou poslední prací v českém jazyce, mi současně umožňuje přechod k prvnímu francouzskému pokusu, kterým je text nazvaný Twor (GLM, 1974). Francouzština je mi od té chvíle, až na nepatrné výjimky a až do zcela posledních let, jediným a výlučným pracovním jazykem,"píše V. Linhartová v doslovu ke knize.Text Jamese Joyce (1882-1941) vyšel poprvé v roce 1968 ve frankfurtském nakladatelství Suhrkamp. Podle autorova rukopisu jej připravil k vydání Richard Ellmann. Ellmannovo vydání je posmrtnou publikací autorem samým nezveřejněného díla. Rukopis přepsaný do podoby školního sešitu nemá název ani nenese jméno autora. Nadpis Giacomo Joyce na přebalu je připsán cizí rukou. Podle Ellmanna vznikl úplný záznam, nejspíš s použitím starších poznámek, asi v létě 1914 v Terstu, kde Joyce pobýval v letech 1904-1915 a živil se hodinami angličtiny v jazykové škole i v zámožných terstských rodinách. Jak autorka překladu a doslovu dále uvádí, báseň "Giacomo Joyce je příběhem učitelova vztahu k mladé židovské žačce, příběh ne nepodobný Kierkegaardovu Deníku svůdce".

Starlingovi se rozutekli do různých koutů Spojených států. Rodiče Richard a Lisa se usadili v Ithace a oba učí na Cornellově univerzitě. Syn Michael, obchodník, a jeho žena Diane bydlí v Dallasu. Mladší Thad, začínající básník, žije v New Yorku společně se svým přítelem, úspěšným malířem Jakem. Celá rodina se tak pravidelně schází o každém volnu v domku u jezera v Severní Karolíně. Jenže s touhle tradicí je konec, Richard a Lisa se rozhodli dům prodat a strávit penzi na Floridě. Všechny tak čeká poslední víkend u jezera. Ovšem poklidné setkání se brzy promění v noční můru. Tragická událost, jíž se Starlingovi stanou svědky, vyplaví na povrch tajemství, která před sebou jednotliví členové dlouho skrývali. Román U jezera řadí Davida Jamese Poissanta mezi nejlepší jižanské autory současnosti. Je až s podivem, že dílo tak sebevědomé, důvtipné a hluboce procítěné napsal někdo tak mladý, přitom upomene spíše na klasiku z 60. či 70. let.

Island – pohádkově krásná země, jejíž turistický ruch prudce rosteIsland sice není sice vyhledávaným cílem milovníků spalujícího slunce a horkých pláží, ale nabízí jedinečné atrakce, velmi vzácné na celém světě. Navíc jsou tyto ohromné přírodní útvary jen minimálně dotčené člověkem, což z nich dělá monumenty, před nimiž se tají dech. Když si pak ještě uvědomíte, že v tomto ledovém království stojíte jen kousek od polárního kruhu, celé to pohádkové kouzlo se ještě znásobíNa Islandu žije necelých 323 000 obyvatel, z toho dvě třetiny přímo v hlavním městě Reykjavíku. To znamená, že budete-li chtít procestovat a prozkoumat celou zemi, můžete jet hodiny a hodiny a nenarazíte na jediného člověka. Pokud pojedete po Okružní silnici, dobré značení vás zavede k největším islandským atrakcím – k obrovským hučícím vodopádům, ohromným ledovcům anebo k sopkám, které nikdy nespí. Můžete ale také třeba využít služeb některé z turistických kanceláří a zaplatit si výlet na moře s pozorováním velryb a papuchalků anebo přímo do nitra ledovce.Dobrodružství a adrenalin turistů samotářů jistě umocní i fakt, že desítky kilometrů na své trase nemusí narazit ani na jediný obchod, jediný přístřešek k přenocování, a při zhoršeném počasí bývají dokonce uzavřeny některé cesty.Průvodce nabízí seznamy turistických kanceláří, které vám pomohou najít výlety přímo na míru. Samozřejmostí jsou výčty ubytovacích a stravovacích zařízení, možnosti zábavy a nabídka největších zajímavostí. Samotného průvodce doplňují praktické informace, stručná historie země, popis islandských ság anebo stručný slovníček. A nechybí ani spousta barevných fotografií a praktických podrobných map.

Controversial, scandalous, erudite and funny, Ulysses is undisputedly a landmark of twentieth-century modernism. It charts one day – 16th June 1904 – in the lives of three inhabitants of Dublin: the advertising salesman Leopold Bloom, the artist Stephen Dedalus and Bloom’s wife Molly. Their peregrinations, thoughts and encounters form the basis of the narrative, which becomes a celebration of all human experience through the lives of specific individuals in a specific place at a specific time. Ulysses is both an experimental novel and a book intimately concerned with the events of modern life. A lively repository of literary allusion and colloquial realism, this dazzlingly innovative, ambitious novel is here presented in its 1939 Odyssey Press version, which is regarded as the most accurate text published in Joyce’s lifetime. This edition also includes over 9,000 notes by Joyce scholars Sam Slote, Marc A. Mamigonian and John Turner. James Joyce Born in Dublin, James Joyce (1882–1941) spent most of his life abroad, living in Trieste, Paris and Zurich. His writings, however, mainly centre on Dublin – most famously Ulysses, Dubliners and A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. He pioneered and perfected avant-garde prose techniques that saw him rise to the rank of one of Europe’s foremost Modernists.

First published in 1914, Dubliners depicts middle-class Catholic life in Dublin at the start of the twentieth century. Themes within the stories include the disappointments of childhood, the frustrations of adolescence, and the importance of sexual awakening. James Joyce was twenty-five years old when he wrote this collection of short stories, among which 'The Dead' is probably the most famous. Considered at the time as a literary experiment, Dubliners contains moments of joy, fear, grief, love and loss, which combine to form one of the most complete depictions of a city ever written, and the stories remain as refreshingly original and surprising in this century as they did in the last.This Macmillan Collector's Library edition of Dubliners features an afterword by dramatist Peter Harness.Designed to appeal to the booklover, the Macmillan Collector's Library is a series of beautiful gift editions of much loved classic titles. Macmillan Collector's Library are books to love and treasure.

Audiokniha: Před 100 lety publikoval irský spisovatel James Joyce svůj nejznámější román Odysseus, zásadní dílo moderní světové literatury. Ve všedním příběhu jednoho dne jako by ožívaly všechny příběhy světa, včetně antického mýtu o Odysseovi. Možná vás nadchne, možná bude provokovat svou "nečitelností", ale jistě vás ohromí. Román Odysseus (1922) se stal nejslavnějším dílem irského romanopisce a básníka Jamese Joyce. Mnohovrstevnatá dublinská parafráze antického mýtu. V osmnácti kapitolách tematicky vázaných k epizodám Homérovy Odyssey je s analytickou důkladností zaznamenávána všední jednodenní pouť pokřtěného irského žida Leopolda Blooma městem Dublin. V časovém úseku od 8 hod. 16. června do 8 hod. 17. června 1904 bezvýznamný žurnalista a inzertní akvizitér Bloom obstarává své pochůzky, které přes vnější banálnost opakují mytickou Odysseovu pouť z Tróje do rodné Ithaky. Homérská paralela se neuplatňuje jen v dějové architektuře Odyssea, ale také v rozvržení postav. Štěpán Dedalus odpovídá Odysseovu synovi Telemachovi. Leopold Bloom funguje jako Odysseus a Molly Bloomová jako Pénelopé. Oba se v noci na okamžik setkají, Bloom se Štěpána ujímá ve veřejném domě, nabízí mu nocleh. Štěpán odmítne, odchází a Bloom opět uléhá vedle své spící ženy Molly-Penelopy, jejíž strhující a živelný vnitřní monolog v podobě jediné nekonečné věty román uzavírá. Dublinské ulice v románu figurují jako moderní obdoba Daidalova labyrintu. Pro obvinění z pornografie byl Odysseus (první vydání románu vyšlo v Paříži v nakl. Shakespeare and Co. roku 1922, první výtisky dostal Joyce do ruky v den svých 40. narozenin) zakázán ve všech anglicky mluvících zemích, přesto se stal literární událostí. Michal Plzák

Indeed, with his last book, which took him seventeen years to write, Joyce takes literary modernism to new territories by harvesting from as many as eighty different languages to create a wordscape that is both precise and impressionistic, a work that is intellectual, avant-garde, but also sad, funny, earthy and brimming with humanity.This edition includes an introduction by Dr Sam Slote of Trinity College Dublin.This book is part of Alma Classics James Joyce Collection to include A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Chamber Music and Other Poems, Dubliner and Ulysses.Alma Classics is committed to making available a wide range of literature from around the globe.

Salinger as a leading voice in American literature--and that has instilled in millions of readers around the world a lifelong love of books. "If you really want to hear about it, the first thing you'll probably want to know is where I was born, and what my lousy childhood was like, and how my parents were occupied and all before they had me, and all that David Copperfield kind of crap, but I don't feel like going into it, if you want to know the truth." The hero-narrator of The Catcher in the Rye is an ancient child of sixteen, a native New Yorker named Holden Caufield.

The stories in Dubliners show us truants, seducers, gossips, rally-drivers, generous hostesses, corrupt politicians, failing priests, amateur theologians, struggling musicians, moony adolescents, victims of domestic brutishness, sentimental aunts and poets, patriots earnest or cynical, and people striving to get by.

TWILIGHT IN ITALY is not autobiographical, nor can it be labeled as travel sketches. Most of the pieces are vivid, sensitive, masterful, often rhapsodic impressions of the Italian countryside and the Italian temper. With his genius for combining psychological perception, sociological insight, and personal enthusiasm, Lawrence transforms ordinary rights of passages into intense beauty.

The Catcher in the Rye is J . D. Salinger's world-famous novel of disaffected youth. Holden Caulfield is a seventeen- year-old dropout who has just been kicked out of his fourth school. Navigating his way through the challenges of growing up, Holden dissects the 'phony' aspects of society, and the 'phonies' themselves: the headmaster whose affability depends on the wealth of the parents, his roommate who scores with girls using sickly-sweet affection. Written with the clarity of a boy leaving childhood behind, The Catcher in the Rye explores the world with disarming frankness and a warm, affecting charisma which has made this novel a universally loved classic of twentieth-century literature. J. D. Salinger was born in 1919 and died in January 2010. He grew up in New York City, and wrote short stories from an early age, but his breakthrough came in 1948 with the publication in The New Yorker of 'A Perfect Day for Bananafish'. The Catcher in the Rye was his first and only novel, published in 1951. It remains one of the most translated, taught and reprinted texts, and has sold some 65 million copies. His other works include the novellas Franny and Zooey, For Esme with Love and Squalor, and Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters, published with Seymour - An Introduction.

eBook: One of the greatest of twentieth-century novelists and poets, D. H. Lawrence wrote and lived with a passionate intensity that shocked his contemporaries. Lawrence composed Women in Love while at the height of his powers, and indeed, in its blend of lyricism, psychological revelation, and an eroticism that is never very far from violence, it can still startle and even discomfit readers. In this story of two very unconventional sisters, Ursula and Gudrun Brangwen, and the men they love, Lawrence argues urgently for a new conjunction between man and woman as \"two pure beings, each constituting the freedom of the other.\" The ardent struggle of human souls coming into being, and into relationship with one another, is at the heart of Women in Love, and this wrenching, sometimes painful, thoroughly exhilarating process is brilliantly illuminated in Lawrence\'s masterpiece.

James Joyce’s astonishing masterpiece, Ulysses, tells of the diverse events which befall Leopold Bloom and Stephen Dedalus in Dublin on 16 June 1904, during which Bloom’s voluptuous wife, Molly, commits adultery.Initially deemed obscene in England and the USA, this richly-allusive novel, revolutionary in its Modernistic experimentalism, was hailed as a work of genius by W. B. Yeats, T. S. Eliot and Ernest Hemingway.Scandalously frank, wittily erudite, mercurially eloquent, resourcefully comic and generously humane, Ulysses offers the reader a life-changing experience.

Take a gap year in Alaska, make sure his little brother and single mother are taken care of, and continue therapy to process his father's departure.

A high school theater legend, she’s headed to performing arts college in LA, a star on the rise. But when a drunk driver takes her sister’s life, that star fades to black. All that remains is a void—and a soft voice singing in her ear . . .Over it all, transcending time and space, a celestial bird brings strangers together: from an escaped murderer in 19th century Paris, to a Norwegian kosmonaut in low-earth orbit, something is happening that began long ago, and will long outlast Evan and Shosh.

eBook: Lawrence asserted that 'the proper function of a critic is to save the tale from the artist who created it'. In these highly individual, penetrating essays he has exposed 'the American whole soul' within some of that continent's major works of literature. In seeking to establish the status of writings by such authors as Poe, Melville, Fenimore Cooper and Whitman, Lawrence himself has created a classic work. Studies in Classic American Literature is valuable not only for the light it sheds on eighteenth- and nineteenth-cetntury American consciousness, telling 'the truth of the day', but also as a prime example of Lawrence's learning, passion and integrity of judgement.

Úplne nový a revolučný pohľad na evolúciu ľudstva, ktorý našim predkom vracia dlho popieranú ľudskosť. Na základe najnovších výskumov antropológ David Graeber a archeológ David Wengrow radikálne prehodnotili dejiny človeka od samých počiatkov v časoch lovcov a zberačov, cez vznik poľnohospodárstva, prvých miest a štátov. Dokazujú, že naši predkovia boli inteligentní ľudia, ktorí sa nehnali len za potravou ani sa bezhlavo navzájom nezabíjali.Ako teda trávili čas? Akí boli, čo robili, ako fungovali dávnoveké spoločnosti, dodnes považované za primitívne a jednoduché, hoci najnovšie poznatky ukazujú, že to tak nebolo? Počiatok všetkého je dôkladná štúdia dvoch naslovovzatých odborníkov a nadšencov, ktorí našli odpovede na všetky tieto otázky.

When David Hockney discovered the iPhone as an artistic medium, it opened up entirely new possibilities for his art. He made his first digital drawings in spring 2009, describing the morning landscape in broad lines and dazzling colors directly on a display that offered subtle hues as unmixed expressions of pure light. Then in 2010, Hockney started working with an iPad, and the larger screen expanded his artistic repertoire and enabled an even more complex interplay of color, light, and line.Each image in this book captures a fleeting moment seen through a window in Hockney's Yorkshire home: from vibrant sunrise and lilac morning sky to peaceful night-time impressions or the sudden arrival of spring. Fascinating details reveal drops on window panes, distant lights in the night, reflections on vases or an abundance of varied window-sill vegetation. In 120 drawings made between 2009 and 2012, selected and arranged by the artist himself, we experience the passage of time through the eyes of David Hockney.This artist's book, which first appeared in an exclusive signed edition, now returns as an unlimited run, whose still generous XL format presents Hockney's impressions in brilliant resolution. So now is the perfect occasion to heed the advice of the Times critic regarding this book: "If you would like to be given a bouquet by David Hockney, here is your chance."

First collected by his devoted family and colleagues as a 75th birthday present, The Unpublished David Ogilvy collects a career''s worth of public and private communications - memos, letters, speeches, notes and interviews - from the ''Father of Advertising'' and founder of Ogilvy & Mather. Still fizzing with energy and freshness more than 25 years after it was first published, its success outside the private circle of friends and colleagues it was created for was, in the words of one of its editors: ''because so often he spoke out on important matters long before the crowd caught up to him; because all of what he says, he says so well; because so little of what he says in the book had ever before appeared in print''. It includes The Theory and Practice of Selling the AGA Cooker, described by Fortune magazine as ''the finest sales instruction manual ever written'', and an interview in which he makes disclosures that even long-standing associates had never heard before.This is a business book unlike any other: a straightforward and incisive look at subjects such as salesmanship, management and creativity, presented in his trademark crisp prose. Whether carefully prepared for a lecture or as a private joke to a friend, his writing always underlines the importance of the rule, ''it pays an agency to be imaginative and unorthodox''.

Ze školních lavic často získáváme pocit, že naši vzdálení předci byli sice svobodní a sobě rovni, ale vedli nebezpečný a primitivní život, plný bojů a násilí. Bylo nám řečeno, že skutečné civilizace mohlo být dosaženo pouze obětováním těchto původních svobod či zkrocením našich nižších instinktů. David Graeber a David Wengrow však ve své knize převrací zakořeněný pohled na lidskou historii; včetně počátků zemědělství, majetku, měst, demokracie, otroctví a civilizace samotné. Své poznatky čerpají z průkopnických archeologických a antropologických výzkumů a ukazují, jak se i dávná historie může měnit, pokud se na ni podíváme jiným pohledem.
