B. J. Harrison Reads The Mysterious Key and What It Opened (EN)
Alice is pregnant with her husband Sir Richard Trevlyn’s child. One day, she listens to a conversation between her husband and a visitor through a keyhole. What she hears is shocking enough to make her faint, and when she comes to, her husband is found dead. Years later, the sixteen-year-old Paul applies for a job at the estate, and it becomes clear that there is more to him than meets the eye.

EGYIKE A HÁROM ELÁTKOZOTT GRAYDONI GRÁCIÁNAK: HA NEM SZERELEMBŐL MEGY FÉRJHEZ, JEGYESÉRE LESÚJT A HALÁL
Lady Catherine Miltonra, amikor lemarad a társaságtól egy vadászaton, haramiák támadnak rá. Ross Dunbar, a bősz skót siet a segítségére. A fiatalember VII. Henrik vendégeként - voltaképpen túszaként - tartózkodik az angol udvarban: a király így akarja biztosítani, hogy Ross atyja felhagyjon kedvenc időtöltésével, a határ menti fosztogatással és portyázással.
Noha a haramiákat együttes erővel sikerül megfutamítaniuk, a fiatalok kénytelenek az éjszakát kettesben tölteni az erdőben. A szokások és az illem megkövetelné, hogy azonnal összeházasodjanak, ám erre egyikük sem hajlandó. Cate, nehogy beteljesedjék az átok, inkább vállalja, hogy folt esik a becsületén, Ross pedig családja és népe elleni árulásnak érezné, ha angol nőt venne feleségül.
Henrik utasításának azonban nem szegülhetnek ellen. Amikor híre jön, hogy ír és német csapatok támogatásával egy trónkövetelő partra szállt Angliában, a király oltár elé parancsolja a párt, Rossnak nászajándékul birtokokat adományoz a skót határ mentén, hogy ott készüljön fel a védekezésre.
Úgy tűnik, Ross sorsa elrendeltetett: ha nem az átok végez vele, akkor az ellenség kardja - egy olyan háborúban, amelyet nem is érez magáénak.

Opera Explained – The Flying Dutchman (EN)
The Flying Dutchman is the perfect opera with which to approach the operatic mountain that is Richard Wagner. It is short, has a great story (the legend of the Dutch captain doomed to sail forever unless redeemed through love), and the striking score has many pre-echoes of Wagner’s later great music dramas.

New Kids On The Block - Still Kids CD
New Kids on the Block je americká chlapčenská skupina z Dorchestra v štáte Massachusetts. Skupinu tvoria bratia Jonathan a Jordan Knightovci, Joey McIntyre, Donnie Wahlberg a Danny Wood. New Kids on the Block zaznamenali úspech koncom 80. a začiatkom 90. rokov a predali viac ako 80 miliónov nahrávok po celom svete a často sa im pripisuje zásluha za vydláždenie cesty budúcim chlapčenským kapelám ako Take That, Backstreet Boys a NSYNC. V roku 1990 získali dve American Music Awards za obľúbenú pop/rockovú skupinu, duo alebo skupinu a obľúbený pop/rockový album. V roku 1991 odohrali polčasovú šou na Super Bowl XXV, prvýkrát pre populárnu hudobnú skupinu.
"Still Kids" je prvý štúdiový album New Kids On The Block po 11 rokoch. Na úplne novom albume členovia Jonathan Knight, Jordan Knight, Joey McIntyre, Donnie Wahlberg a Danny Wood sprostredkúvajú začiatky New Kids, aj keď ich to posúva do nových oblastí ako skladateľov piesní a ako skupinu. Album obsahuje 14 nových skladieb vrátane hlavného singla „Kids“ a je plný popových hymien, tanečných skladieb, milostných piesní a "groovov", ktoré sa stanú pre Blockheads rýchlymi favoritmi.

Nevhodné!
Stačilo jedno žhavé video pořízené na dovolené s přáteli a Ireland Saint Jamesové přišla domů výpověď pro nevhodné chování. Po devíti letech, kdy dřela dnem i nocí, aby se na svou pozici dostala, nestála firmě ani za osobní rozhovor. Plná vzteku a povzbuzená vínem se rozhodne napsat CEO společnosti, Grantu Lexingtonovi, co si o něm myslí – rozhodně ale nečeká, že by jí kdy odpověděl! Grant je zvyklý střídat ženy a na žádnou z nich se nevázat. Peprný mail od prostořeké Ireland v něm ale probudí nečekaný zájem...

TATTOO. 1730s-1970s. Henk Schiffmacher's Private Collection. 40th Ed.
One part history book, one part art book, and one part fascinating memoir, this book is an overview of more than two centuries of tattoo history intermixed with an intimate look at the lives of tattoo artists, and the personal struggles and triumphs, occupational hazards, and artistic courage that have defined so much of this history. For the last forty years, Henk Schiffmacher has poured his heart and soul into his collection, amassing tattoo drawings, designs, photographs, and artifacts from around the world. Each of the book's chapters features many never-before-seen highlights from this collection and includes lithographs, etchings, tattooing instruments, original drawings, and tattoo designs known in the business as flash, among them extremely rare vintage flash sheets from major players in early Western tattooing.
The vastness and variety of tattooing around the world is chronicled in the book's hundreds of images, including the indigenous tattooing of the Maori and South Pacific islanders, the ancient traditions of Asia, and the origins of old-school Western tattooing in Europe and the United States. The book also features a dozen original illustrations by Schiffmacher in his inimitable style. Schiffmacher brings a fascinating perspective to tattoo history through his personal reflections and wild tales of adventure.
In this book, we learn not only about the history of tattooing, but also about the adventures behind the making of one of the largest tattoo collections in the world, by a self-taught tattoo artist in love with the art and its innovators.

Crowning Glory
With the death of Queen Elizabeth II, the debate around the merits of the monarchy is further ignited, as seen recently in the Commonwealth countries, where the movement towards transitioning to a republic state is gaining ground. Gattey presents a powerful argument as to why the monarchy helps to maintain stability within a country and so absorb more radical changes in its political and social structures than would otherwise be possible, without the risk of disorder. How can this be? Gattey’s contribution to this topical debate is invaluable.

Prečo sa netreba báť
Stoicizmus pre vyrovnaný život
Žiť v modernom svete nie je ľahké. Trápia nás nízke platy, vysoké ceny v obchodoch, sme prepracovaní, máme problémy s duševným zdravím a dokonalé fotografie zo sociálnych sietí v nás vyvolávajú úzkosť. Valia sa na nás vojny, epidémie, klimatické krízy, a než sa nazdáme, zmietame sa vo víre ďalších katastrofických správ. Ako si poradiť v týchto náročných časoch?
Máme dobrú správu! Záchranou pred životnými neúspechmi a pohromami môže byť filozofia stoikov. Starovekí filozofi Seneca, Epiktétos a Marcus Aurelius hľadali odpovede na rovnaké otázky, aké trápia aj nás. V každodennom živote môžeme plne kontrolovať len tri veci: svoj charakter, svoje reakcie a to, ako sa správame k druhým. Uvedomenie si, že ostatné veci sú mimo našej kontroly, prináša v konečnom dôsledku úľavu a vnútorný pokoj. Stoicizmus vám pomôže zbaviť sa strachu a úzkosti a ukáže vám, ako sa stať silným človekom.
Obľúbená publicistka denníka The Guardian Brigid Delaney sa obracia k múdrosti stoikov, aby pochopila najhlbšie otázky týkajúce sa našej existencie. V tomto úprimnom diele, plnom srdečnosti, humoru a nadhľadu, skúma, ako žiť bohatý a zmysluplný život.

Všechno bylo nové
Kniha obsahuje soubor editovaných rozhovorů s aktéry polistopadové transformace české ekonomiky, s deseti muži a jednou ženou, který je nejen reflexí samotného transformačního období devadesátých let 20. století, ale také zajímavou ukázkou prolínání velkých dějin a osobních kariérních trajektorií. Rozhovory zachycují širokou paletu zkušeností, od nejvyšší, rozhodovací úrovně (Fond národního majetku, ministerstva) přes reflexe účastníků privatizačního procesu a "transformujících" se manažerů dříve socialistických podniků až po nové podnikatele, kteří se chopili příležitosti a stali se majiteli a zakladateli firem. Výpovědi pamětníků jsou doplněny metodologickou statí a interpretační kapitolou, jež sleduje některé ze strategií "vyrovnávání se s minulostí", tedy jak si narátoři udržují symbolický odstup od negativních jevů doprovázejících dnešní obecné povědomí o transformaci a privatizaci.

A Christmas Sermon
By the time this paper appears, I shall have been talking for twelve months; and it is thought I should take my leave in a formal and seasonable manner. Valedictory eloquence is rare, and death-bed sayings have not often hit the mark of the occasion. Charles Second, wit and sceptic, a man whose life had been one long lesson in human incredulity, an easy-going comrade, a manoeuvring king—remembered and embodied all his wit and scepticism along with more than his usual good humour in the famous "I am afraid, gentlemen, I am an unconscionable time a-dying."
