Napoleonské války - Libor Jůn - e-kniha

eBook: Napoleonské války od základů proměnily evropskou společnost a vytvořily pomyslný most mezi starým „feudálním“ světem a světem rodící se občanské společnosti. Interpretace událostí spojených s mocenským vzestupem tehdejší Francie, reprezentované fenomenálním vojákem Napoleonem Bonapartem, je do dnešních dnů nejednoznačná a v mnohém i výrazně rozporuplná. Kniha je hlavně shrnutím nejdůležitějších událostí napoleonských válek a upozorněním na společenské a politické změny vyvolané tímto dlouhodobým konfliktem v evropském i celosvětovém měřítku.

Paměť Národního muzea - Libor Jůn - e-kniha

eBook: Monografie Paměť Národního muzea představuje největší muzeum České republiky v netradiční perspektivě, prostřednictvím egodokumentů (paměti, deníkové záznamy, rozhovory), které konfrontuje s dokumenty legislativní povahy či úředními dokumenty. Dějiny Národního muzea jsou sledovány v kontextu událostí politických dějin, ale s důrazem na individuální prožitek a perspektivu jednotlivých pracovníků muzea, kteří se podíleli na jeho každodenním životě. V podobě i formulacích dokumentů je možno sledovat hlavní rysy vývoje způsobů vyjadřování i vzájemné komunikace mezi muzejníky navzájem, ale i vůči nadřízeným orgánům, stejně jako přesahy do širšího kontextu politických a kulturních dějin Československa v rozmezí let 1918-1990.

Kniha - autor Ondřej Crhák; Markéta Křížová, 96 stran, česky, brožovaná bez přebalu lesklá Obrazová publikace vydaná ke stejnojmenné výstavě v Náprstkově muzeu se věnuje ozbrojeným střetnutím, tak jak se odehrávala v různých částech světa a v různých historických obdobích. Cílem je pochopit, co válka znamenala jak pro samotné účastníky, tak pro ty, které zasahovala nepřímo. Jak sami sebe v kontextu bojů vnímali, co jim kromě utrpení a smrti válka přinášela ve všech oblastech života, jaký měla význam pro hospodářství, rozvoj technologií, uměleckou produkci. Knížka připomíná, že v myšlení a chování dneška zůstalo mnoho z předmoderních konfliktů, z „primitivní války“. Výklad je veden prostřednictvím velkého množství fotografií předmětů z různých ozbrojených konfliktů, map a dalšího obrazového materiálu. Kniha vychází dvojjazyčně, česko-anglicky.

"Národní mučedníci" Albert Leo Schlageter a Julius Fučík: Hrdinský kult, propaganda a kultura vzpomí (978-80-200-3221-8)

Kniha - autor Stefan Zwicker, 408 stran, česky, brožovaná bez přebalu lesklá ulius Fučík v komunistickém Československu a Albert Leo Schlageter v nacistickém Německu: dva popravení, ze kterých režim učinil mučedníky a na jejichž odkazu vybudoval skutečný kult. Oba byli ve své době oslavováni jako hrdinové, bojovníci proti odvěkému nepříteli a jako jeho oběti. Po pádu systémů, který jejich jména využil, na ně čekal opět podobný osud: zapomnění. Tyto dvě osobnosti mají společné také to, že jejich skutečné osudy překryly nejrůznější legendy a polopravdy. Kniha nabízí pohled na hrdinský kult a kulturu vzpomínání dvou států a režimů, hledá pravdu skrytou pod nánosy bájí a zároveň se zabývá obecnými mechanismy vzniku postav národních hrdinů a mučedníků a tím, co je spojuje.

The Art and Science of Ernst Haeckel - Rainer Willmann, Julia Voss

Discover Ernst Haeckel, the 19th-century artist-biologist who found beauty in even the most unlikely of creatures. This collection features 450 prints from his most important publications, including the majestic Kunstformen der Natur and his extensive catalogues of marine life. As biodiversity is ever-more threatened, these exquisite images are a scientific, artistic, and environmental masterwork. Ernst Haeckel (1834–1919) was a German-born biologist, naturalist, evolutionist, artist, philosopher, and doctor who spent his life researching flora and fauna from the highest mountaintops to the deepest ocean. A vociferous supporter and developer of Darwin’s theories of evolution, he denounced religious dogma, authored philosophical treatises, gained a doctorate in zoology, and coined scientific terms which have passed into common usage, including ecology, phylum, and stem cell. At the heart of Haeckel’s colossal legacy was the motivation not only to discover but also to explain. To do this, he created hundreds of detailed drawings, watercolors, and sketches of his findings which he published in successive volumes, including several marine organism collections and the majestic Kunstformen der Natur (Art Forms in Nature), which could serve as the cornerstone of Haeckel’s entire life project. Like a meticulous visual encyclopedia of living things, Haeckel’s work was as remarkable for its graphic precision and meticulous shading as for its understanding of organic evolution. From bats to the box jellyfish, lizards to lichen, and spider legs to sea anemones, Haeckel emphasized the essential symmetries and order of nature, and found biological beauty in even the most unlikely of creatures. In this book, we celebrate the scientific, artistic, and environmental importance of Haeckel’s work, with a collection of 450 of his finest prints from several of his most important tomes, including Die Radiolarien, Monographie der Medusen, Die Kalkschwämme, and Kunstformen der Natur. At a time when biodiversity is increasingly threatened by human activities, the book is at once a visual masterwork, an underwater exploration, and a vivid reminder of the precious variety of life.

A lavishly illustrated collection of essays on drawing as a vital intellectual, artistic and life practice, by the artists of the Royal Drawing School.

From explorations of artistic development to short, imaginative strategies for seeing the world afresh, it repositions this art form as a vital force in the contemporary world. Advocating passionately for drawing as both deeply personal and utterly essential, this book is an invaluable companion for artists with all levels of experience looking for new inspirations for their practice.

A Man of Two Faces - Viet Thanh Nguyen

''A triumphant memoir'' Cathy Park Hong, author of MINOR FEELINGS, finalist for the Pulitzer PrizeThe highly original, blistering, and unconventional memoir by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Sympathizer, which has now sold over one million copies worldwideWith insight, humour, formal invention, and lyricism, in A Man of Two Faces Nguyen rewinds the film of his own life. He expands the genre of personal memoir by acknowledging larger stories of refugeehood, colonization, and ideas about Vietnam and America, writing with his trademark sardonic wit and incisive analysis, as well as a deep emotional openness about his life as a father and a son. At the age of four, Nguyen and his family are forced to flee his hometown of Ban Mê Thu?t and come to the USA as refugees. After being removed from his brother and parents and homed with a family on his own, Nguyen is later allowed to resettle into his own family in suburban San José. But there is violence hidden behind the sunny façade of what he calls AMERICA™. One Christmas Eve, when Nguyen is nine, while watching cartoons at home, he learns that his parents have been shot while working at their grocery store, the SàiGòn M?i, a place where he sometimes helps price tins of fruit with a sticker gun. Years later, as a teenager, the blood-stirring drama of the films of the Vietnam War such as Apocalypse Now throw Nguyen into an existential crisis: how can he be both American and Vietnamese, both the killer and the person being killed? When he learns about an adopted sister who has stayed back in Vietnam, and ultimately visits her, he grows to understand just how much his parents have left behind. And as his parents age, he worries increasingly about their comfort and care, and realizes that some of their older wounds are reopening. Resonant in its emotions and clear in its thinking about cultural power, A Man of Two Faces explores the necessity of both forgetting and of memory, the promises America so readily makes and breaks, and the exceptional life story of one of the most original and important writers working today.

Making Faces: A First Book of Emotions - Abrams Appleseed

Explore expressions in this interactive photographic board book from the creators of Baby Loves and Baby Up, Baby Down. Find the happy baby! Find the sad baby! Find the angry baby! Find the silly baby! Making Faces: A First Book of Emotions is an appealing high-contrast board book that introduces five essential expressions: happy, sad, angry, surprised, and silly. Each expression is paired with a large image of a baby’s face. Children are asked to mimic the face, then pick it out from a group of other babies. At the end, readers are invited to make all the faces introduced in a unique and exciting way—with a mirror right on the last page. Little ones will learn as they play and will delight in mimicking expressions—especially the “surprised” face! “White backgrounds provide maximum contrast for the photos, which readily telegraph each emotion, and an embedded mirror lets children see their own happy, silly, and other emotive expressions.” ―Publishers Weekly “Full-color head shots depict a diverse group of toddlers exhibiting a range of facial expressions that indicate a variety of emotions, from happy to sad and surprised to amused.” —School Library Journal Also available in the Baby Loves Books Collection:Baby LovesBaby Up, Baby Down

Notes from Underground and the Double - Fjodor Michajlovič Dostojevskij

That sense of the meaninglessness of existence that runs through much of twentieth-century writing - from Conrad and Kafka, to Beckett and beyond - starts in Dostoyevsky's work' Malcolm BradburyAlienated from society and paralysed by a sense of his own insignificance, the anonymous narrator of Dostoyevsky's Notes from Underground tells the story of his tortured life. With bitter irony, he describes his refusal to become a worker in the 'anthill' and his gradual withdrawal from society. The seemingly ordinary world of St Petersburg takes on a nightmarish quality in The Double when a government clerk encounters a man who looks exactly like him - his double perhaps, or possibly the darker side of his own personality.Like Notes from Underground, this is a masterly tragi-comic study of human consciousness. Translated by Ronald Wilks with an Introduction by Robert Louis Jackson

Notes Of A Crocodile - Eileen Myles, Bonnie Huie, Qiu Miaojin

WINNER OF THE 2018 LUCIEN STRYK ASIAN TRANSLATION PRIZEThe English-language premiere of Qiu Miaojin''s coming-of-age novel about queer teenagers in Taiwan, a cult classic in China and winner of the 1995 China Times Literature Award.An NYRB Classics OriginalSet in the post-martial-law era of late-1980s Taipei, Notes of a Crocodile is a coming-of-age story of queer misfits discovering love, friendship, and artistic affinity while hardly studying at Taiwan’s most prestigious university. Told through the eyes of an anonymous lesbian narrator nicknamed Lazi, this cult classic is a postmodern pastiche of diaries, vignettes, mash notes, aphorisms, exegesis, and satire by an incisive prose stylist and major countercultural figure.Afflicted by her fatalistic attraction to Shui Ling, an older woman, Lazi turns for support to a circle of friends that includes a rich kid turned criminal and his troubled, self-destructive gay lover, as well as a bored, mischievous overachiever and her alluring slacker artist girlfriend. Illustrating a process of liberation from the strictures of gender through radical self-inquiry, Notes of a Crocodile is a poignant masterpiece of social defiance by a singular voice in contemporary Chinese literature.

The Journal of Julius Rodman - Edgar Allan Poe - e-kniha

eBook: An authentic description of an expedition across the heart of the Rocky Mountains that turned out to be an elaborate hoax."The Journal of Julius Rodman" is Edgar Allen Poe's second attempt at producing a lengthier work and until recently even hardcore fans have missed out on this adventurous gem. It tells the story of the first expedition over the Rocky Mountains conducted by "civilized man" and is packed with wild and vivid nature descriptions, encounters with Native American tribes and supreme emotions bringing Leonardo DiCaprio's "The Revenant" to mind. Intended as a serialized novel, it was published anonymously in six instalments in Burton's Gentleman Magazine in 1839-40 while Poe was working as a contributing editor. This novel, though unfinished, is extremely enjoyable and even prominent Senators initially believed the expedition to be a true story. A must-read for bona fide Poe fans.

Desperate, but dreaming of better days, Leni finds work at a notorious cabaret: the Babylon Circus.

For Leni, it’s an overwhelming new world, and she’s happiest hiding in the shadows. Until she meets the cabaret’s resident pianist, Paul. And so begins a tentative love affair that will play out over the next forty years. But, in a city whose divisions will define a century, can a love born within the feverish walls of the Babylon Circus ever survive?
