This is the story of a few men who valued justice more than life. They were members of the large Corps of Samurai in the feudal domain of Akô in western Japan. But when their lord committed the crime of drawing his sword within the castle of the Shogun, the law decreed that he should be sentenced to death, that his heir would not inherit the domain, and all of his vassals would become ronin, evicted from their homes and deprived of their income. All 308 samurai in Akô knew the law and accepted it. And if their lord had succeeded in killing the man he attacked in the castle that would have been the tragic end of this episode. But their lord was subdued and failed to kill his enemy; which meant that yet another law came into play: the Principle of Equal Punishment. 47: The True Story of the Vendetta of the 47 Ronin from Akô tells the harrowing tale of how all this was argued, what the consequences were, and what ultimately became of those forty-seven men who remained. 47 Ronin tells the tale in immense detail—with maps, graphics, and gorgeous illustrations.

Je pochopitelné, že se v našich rodinách, institucích a ve společnosti snažíme co nejvíce zamezit agresi. My jsme z ní však udělali nebezpečné tabu. Ve vztahu k dětem a mládeži jsme si osvojili nový způsob mluvení a chování, který Jesper Juul nazývá "násilím vlídnosti a korektnosti". Tuto skrytou agresi maskujeme za úsměv a konejšivý tón, a přitom beze studu vykazujeme agresivní děti z kolektivů. Kniha rozlišuje mezi agresí konstruktivní a destruktivní a vyzývá k integraci té první. Děti se tomu učí celé dětství, jejich agresivní projevy by proto neměly být morálně odsuzovány ani trestány. O vzniku agresivního chování dětí rozhoduje chování jejich dospělých vzorů - rodičů, vychovatelů, pedagogů a jiných. Jesper Juul nás svou knihou vyzývá k akci, protože osud těchto dětí leží v našich rukou. "Začít projevovat empatii agresivním a násilnickým dětem se může jevit jako skromný začátek, jde ale o zásadní krok." Jesper Juul

Marcellus military exploits were largely unmatched by any other aristocrat of Roman Middle Republic. As a young soldier in the First Punic War, he won a reputation for his skill in single combat. In his first consulship, he earned a triumph for defeating a Gallic tribe, no small feat in and of itself, and also slew the Gallic chieftain Britomartus in single combat. Consequently, he earned the spolia opima, an honor, according to Roman antiquarians, that had only been earned twice before, once by Romulus himself. He went on to defeat the hitherto-invincible Hannibal in a small battle around the central Italian city of Nola, and subsequently led an army to subdue and plunder the powerful city of Syracuse in an epic 2 year siege (despite the ingenius defensive measures of the inventor Archimedes). Yet, despite his undeniable success as a warrior and commander, Marcellus met with considerable political opposition at Rome.

His biography will be an important addition to existing ... Unknown localization key: "more"
