Edward Fosca is a murderer. Of this Mariana is certain. But Fosca is untouchable. A handsome and charismatic Greek tragedy professor at Cambridge University, Fosca is adored by staff and students alike - particularly by the members of a secret society of female students known as The Maidens. Mariana Andros is a brilliant but troubled group therapist who becomes fixated on The Maidens when one member, a friend of Mariana's niece Zoe, is found murdered in Cambridge. Mariana, who was once herself a student at the university, quickly suspects that behind the idyllic beauty of the spires and turrets, and beneath the ancient traditions, lies something sinister. And she becomes convinced that, despite his alibi, Edward Fosca is guilty of the murder. But why would the professor target one of his students? And why does he keep returning to the rites of Persephone, the maiden, and her journey to the underworld? When another body is found, Mariana's obsession with proving Fosca's guilt spirals out of control, threatening to destroy her credibility as well as her closest relationships. But Mariana is determined to stop this killer, even if it costs her everything - including her life. (knihydobrovsky.cz)

Underpinned by serious research, and written with panache, it summons up a vanished world' SUNDAY TELEGRAPH This is an astonishing new account of Alexander the Great - one of the most important figures of the ancient world, whose earlier years have until now been a mystery. Alexander the Great's story often reads like fiction: son to a snake-loving mother and a battle-scarred father; tutored by Aristotle; a youth from the periphery of the Greek world who took part in his first campaign aged sixteen, becoming king of Macedon at twenty and king of Asia by twenty-five; leading his armies into battle like a Homeric figure.Each generation has peered through the frosted glass of history and come to their own conclusion about Alexander, be it enlightened ruler, military genius, megalomaniac, drunkard or despot. Yet the first two decades of his life have until now been a mystery - a matter of legend and myth. This extraordinary history draws on new discoveries in archaeology to tell the early story of Alexander and his rise - including detail on the tempestuous relationship between Alexander's parents, Philip and the Molossian princess Olympias, his education by Aristotle and the strict military training which would serve him so well in later years.And more than ever, it emerges, the story of Alexander's reign confronts us with difficult questions that are still relevant today - of the relationship between East and West, the legacy of colonialism and the impacts of authoritarian rule. Drawing together startling modern archaeological discoveries, this book brings Alexander's ancient world back into focus. With each fragment of this shattered past, excavated by shovel, pick and trowel, a new history is being written.The forgotten story of young Alexander is being unearthed. (knihydobrovsky.cz)

Hector bidding farewell to his wife and baby son, Odysseus bound to the mast listening to the Sirens, Penelope at the loom, Achilles dragging Hector's body round the walls of Troy - scenes from Homer have been reportrayed in every generation. The questions about mortality and identity that Homer's heroes ask, the bonds of love, respect and fellowship that motivate them, have gripped audiences for three millennia.Chapman's Iliad and Odyssey are great English epic poems, but they are also two of the liveliest and readable translations of Homer. Chapman's freshness makes the everyday world of nature and the craftsman as vivid as the battlefield and Mount Olympus. His poetry is driven by the excitement of the Renaissance discovery of classical civilisation as at once vital and distant, and is enriched by the perspectives of humanist thought.

Kniha The Beatles: Get Back vás přenese do posledního roku této celosvětově známé kapely. Fanoušci a všichni milovníci The Beatles se konečně dočkali. Přes deset let očekávaná kniha o legendární kapele je zcela jiná než jakákoli před ní. V The Beatles: Get Back je zaznamenáno vytvoření posledního alba Let It Be přímo vlastními slovy členů The Beatles, která jsou doplněna dříve nepublikovanými fotografiemi ze zkoušek pořízenými Ethanem A. Russellem a Lindou McCartneyovou. Padesát let po nahrávání alba Let It Be a natočení filmu, který je dokumentuje, vychází tato kniha jako doprovod třídílného dokumentárního filmu Petera Jacksona The Beatles: Get Back . Kniha nás přenese do ledna 1969, je to začátek posledního roku The Beatles jako kapely. Album The BEATLES (The White Album – Bílé album) je na prvních místech hitparád a známá čtyřka se schází v Londýně kvůli novému projektu. Po 21 dní v různých nahrávacích studiích s kamerami a rekordéry dokumentujícími každodenní zkoušení kapela nacvičuje a vylepšuje mnoho svých nových i starých skladeb. Vše vrcholí známým koncertem na střeše přinášejícím do centra Londýna krátký oddech od všeho shonu a nebývalý rozruch. The Beatles: Get Back vypráví příběh zkoušek kapely prostřednictvím přepisů konverzace jejích členů a všech přítomných. Díky jemným zásahům editora Johna Harrise máme jedinečnou možnost vše pozorovat z pohledu mouchy na stěně, být přímo u toho a hrát a zpívat a vymýšlet lepší verše současně s kapelou, která je fenoménem po několik desítek let. Tento naprosto unikátní pocit je ještě znásobený původními fotografiemi pořízenými přímo na místě či snímky ze zmíněného 55hodinového filmového záznamu. Vypráví se, že tyto zkoušky byly předzvěstí rozpadu kapely. Nicméně je nutné dodat, že to bylo zároveň nejplodnějším a vrcholným obdobím The Beatles, o kterém si nyní můžeme přečíst přímo od našich milovaných Brouků. (knihydobrovsky.cz)

Rieu's classic translation.The Iliad is the first and the greatest literary achievement of Greek civilization - an epic poem without rival in the literature of the world, and the cornerstone of Western culture. The story centres on the critical events in the last year of the Trojan War, which lead to Achilleus' killing of Hektor and determine the fate of Troy. But Homer's theme is not simply war or heroism. With compassion and humanity, he presents a universal and tragic view of the world, of human life lived under the shadow of suffering and death, set against a vast and largely unpitying divine background..Seven Greek cities claim the honour of being the birthplace of Homer (c. 8th-7th century BC), the poet to whom the composition of the Iliadand Odyssey are attributed. The Iliad is the oldest surviving work of Western literature, but the identity - or even the existence - of Homer himself is a complete mystery, with no reliable biographical information having survived.E. V. Rieu initiated Penguin Classics with Allen Lane and his famous translation of the Odyssey was the first book published in the series in 1947. The Iliad followed in 1950. (knihydobrovsky.cz)

Podobné produkty ako The Life and Times of The Queen Elizabeth II - Alex RaynhamAn evocative and lyrical history of Cyprus and the Mediterranean. Think of a place where can you stand at the intersection of Christian and Arab cultures, at the crossroads of the British, Ottoman, Byzantine, Roman and Egyptian empires; a place marked by the struggle between fascism and communism and where the capital city is divided in half as a result of bloody conflict; where the ancient olive trees of Homer's time exist alongside the undersea cables which link up the world's internet. In Cypria, named after a lost Cypriot epic which was the prequel to The Odyssey, British Cypriot writer Alex Christofi writes a deeply personal, lyrical history of the island of Cyprus, from the era of goddesses and mythical beasts to the present day. This sprawling, evocative and poetic book begins with the legend of the cyclops and the storytelling at the heart of the Mediterranean culture. Christofi travels to salt lakes, crusader castles, mosques and the eerie town deserted at the start of the 1974 war. He retells the particularly bloody history of Cyprus during the twentieth century and considers his own identity as traveler and returner, as Odysseus was. Written in the same sensitive, witty and beautifully rendered prose as his last book Dostoevsky in Love, with a novelist's flair and eye for detail, Cypria combines the political, cultural and geographical history of Cyprus with reflections on time, place and belonging.
