Raketový vzestup Christiana Diora do nejvyšších pater pařížského módního světa tvoří jeden z nejúžasnějších příběhů v dějinách módy. Dior - se zkušenostmi galeristy, moderní vizí a respektem k tradicím francouzské haute couture - vstoupil na scénu v roce 1947 jako tvůrce siluety new look a přinesl revoluční proměny do způsobů, jimiž se ženy oblékají, nakupují a vnímají samy sebe. Kniha Dior do kabelky vypráví o mládí Christiana Diora, vzniku značky, která nese jeho jméno, triumfech sklízených na přehlídkových molech i na červených kobercích a vývoji, jímž firma prošla po smrti svého zakladatele.

Womenswear progresses in leaps and bounds, fuelled by the readiness of women to wear what may at the time be perceived as the radical or outrageous. Not so menswear -menswear evolves, slowly. But from what? Behind nearly every item in the modern male wardrobe is a 'first of its kind' - the definitive item, often designed by a single company or brand for specialist use, on which all subsequent versions have been based (and originals of which are now collector items in the booming vintage market).The T-shirt, for example, may now be an innocuous, everyday item, but was created by American company Hanes for US Navy personnel at the turn of the 20th century and was subsequently adopted by sportsmen and bikers. Other items have been designed for sport, farm work, protection and made their way into everyday usage.Icons of Men's Style examines, garment by garment, the most important and famous of these products - their provenance and history, the stories of their design, the brand/company that started it all and how the item shaped the way men dress today.

eBook: One of Wilde’s first published pieces, ‘The Rise of Historical Criticism’ is an essay, written while he was a student at Oxford, during the 1870s. In it, he dissects the notions of historical and literary criticism. His belief that criticism is a form of revolt and, with an associated action, can engender revolution and promote democracy, has been the subject of debate between academics for years. In addition, Wilde finds a platform on which to discuss the purpose of true Art. Often funny and eternally fascinating, ‘The Rise of Historical Criticism’ is a crucial read for any fans of the acid-tongued author. Oscar Wilde (1854 – 1900) was an Irish novelist, poet, playwright, and wit. He was an advocate of the Aesthetic movement, which extolled the virtues of art for the sake of art. During his career, Wilde wrote nine plays, including ‘The Importance of Being Earnest,’ ‘Lady Windermere’s Fan,’ and ‘A Woman of No Importance,’ many of which are still performed today. His only novel, ‘The Picture of Dorian Gray’ was adapted for the silver screen, in the film, ‘Dorian Gray,’ starring Ben Barnes and Colin Firth. In addition, Wilde wrote 43 poems, and seven essays. His life was the subject of a film, starring Stephen Fry.

Kolekce devatenácti esejů z pera významných historiků dokládá rozmanitost vědeckých přístupů. Jejich práce s historickými prameny, základními kameny bádání, je kombinována s etickým i estetickým rozhodováním, které tvoří nezpochybnitelnou součást jejich tvorby. Ta je často překvapující - nejen pro čtenáře, ale pro ně samotné. Představuje totiž velké intelektuální dobrodružství. Nemohou si vymýšlet prameny, nemohou si stanovit svévolná pravidla, zápletky a rozuzlení, jako to může udělat romanopisec. Mohou však napsat vědecké dílo, které je výsledkem tvůrčího přístupu.

North, south, east and west: almost all societies use the four cardinal directions to orientate themselves, to understand who they are by projecting where they are. For millennia, these four directions have been foundational to our travel, navigation and exploration and are central to the imaginative, moral and political geography of virtually every culture in the world. Yet they are far more subjective and various – sometimes contradictory – than we might realize.The Four Points of the Compass takes the reader on a journey of directional discovery. Jerry Brotton reveals why Hebrew culture privileges east; why Renaissance Europeans began drawing north at the top of their maps; why the early Islam revered the south; why the Aztecs used five colour-coded cardinal directions; and why no societies, primitive or modern, have ever orientated themselves westwards. He ends by reflecting on our digital age in which we, the little blue dot on the screen, have become the most important compass point.Throughout, Brotton shows that the directions reflect a human desire to create order and that they only have meaning, literally and metaphorically, depending on where you stand.

Kniha - autor Jiří Hanuš; Jiří Suk, 292 stran, česky Kolekce devatenácti esejů z pera významných historiků dokládá rozmanitost vědeckých přístupů. Jejich práce s historickými prameny, základními kameny bádání, je kombinována s etickým i estetickým rozhodováním, které tvoří nezpochybnitelnou součást jejich tvorby. Ta je často překvapující – nejen pro čtenáře, ale pro ně samotné. Představuje totiž velké intelektuální dobrodružství. Nemohou si vymýšlet prameny, nemohou si stanovit svévolná pravidla, zápletky a rozuzlení, jako to může udělat romanopisec. Mohou však napsat vědecké dílo, které je výsledkem tvůrčího přístupu.
