Women Who Run with Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype
Within every woman there is a wild and natural creature, a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing. Her name is Wild Woman, but she is an endangered species. Though the gifts of wildish nature come to us at birth, society's attempt to "civilize" us into rigid roles has plundered this treasure, and muffled the deep, life-giving messages of our own souls. Without Wild Woman, we become over-domesticated, fearful, uncreative, trapped. Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Ph.D., Jungian analyst and cantadora storyteller, shows how woman's vitality can be restored through what she calls "psychic archeological digs" into the bins of the female unconscious. In Women Who Run with the Wolves, Dr. Estes uses multicultural myths, fairy tales, folk tales, and stories chosen from over twenty years of research that help women reconnect with the healthy, instinctual, visionary attributes of the Wild Woman archetype. Dr. Estes collects the bones of many stories, looking for the archetypal motifs that set a woman's inner life into motion. "La Loba" teaches about the transformative function of the psyche. In "Bluebeard," we learn what to do with wounds that will not heal; in "Skeleton Woman," we glimpse the mystical power of relationship and how dead feelings can be revived; "Vasalisa the Wise" brings our lost womanly instincts to the surface again; "The Handless Maiden" recovers the Wild Woman initiation rites; and "The Little Match Girl" warns against the insidious dangers of a life spent in fantasy. In these and other stories, we focus on the many qualities of Wild Woman. We retrieve, examine, love, and understand her, and hold her against our deep psyches as one whois both magic and medicine. In Women Who Run with the Wolves, Dr. Estes has created a new lexicon for describing the female psyche. Fertile and lifegiving, it is a psychology of women in the truest sense, a knowing of the soul.

Stories of Your Life and Others
'A science fiction genius . . . Ted Chiang is a superstar.' GUARDIAN
With Stories of Your Life and Others, his masterful first collection, multiple-award-winning author Ted Chiang deftly blends human emotion and scientific rationalism in eight remarkably diverse stories, all told in his trademark precise and evocative prose.
From a soaring Babylonian tower that connects a flat Earth with the firmament above, to a world where angelic visitations are a wondrous and terrifying part of everyday life; from a neural modification that eliminates the appeal of physical beauty, to an alien language that challenges our very perception of time and reality, Chiang's rigorously imagined fantasias invite us to question our understanding of the universe and our place in it.
'United by a humane intelligence that speaks very directly to the reader, and makes us experience each story with immediacy and Chiang's calm passion.' CHINA MIEVILLE
Behind the Lines Bugulma and Other Stories
V roce 1921, několik měsíců předtím, než Jaroslav Hašek začal psát Osudy dobrého vojáka Švejka, popisuje v cyklu Velitelem města Bugulmy své životní zkušenosti s revolučním Ruskem. Obdobným způsobem, jakým se ve svých povídkách vysmíval předválečné C. a K. monarchii, zachycuje bývalý rudý komisař Hašek bolševickou revoluci. Před čtenářem se tak odehrává úsměvný příběh, v němž, v zapomenutém tatarském městečku Bugulma, vystupuje sovětský velitel tverského revolučního pluku, opilec Jerochymov a velitel města tovaryš Gašek. Skrze humor a nadsázku Hašek ukazuje jednak fanatismus revoluční doby, kdy v nešťastném roce 1918 se náhle vše "vymklo z kloubů", a jednak hloupost či prostou lidskou nejistotu nových vládců. Autobiografcký cyklus Velitelem města Bugulmy je dále doplněn o další Haškovy povídky z té doby.

Kontrasty tanečných príbehov/ Contrasts in Dance Stories
Prvá odborná monografia o baletnom umelcovi na Slovensku je pútavým príbehom dlhoročného vedúceho sólistu Baletu Slovenského národného divadla Zoltána Nagya. Na javisku tejto scény pôsobil až do svojich štyridsiatich šiestich rokov. Stvárnil tu viac ako päťdesiat postáv, okrem hlavných aj charakterové, v baletných inscenáciách klasického a moderného repertoáru. Kritici ho ocenili titulom danseur noble ako jedného z mála slovenských tanečníkov v dejinách. So svojou tanečnou kariérou dvadsiatich ôsmich divadelných sezón sa zaradil medzi najdlhšie pôsobiacich profesionálov v tejto oblasti.
V prvej časti knihy Zoltán Nagy vo sviežom rozhovore s publicistkou, kunsthistoričkou Lindou Nagyovou, jeho dcérou, hovorí o predstaveniach, stvárňovaných postavách, tanečných partnerkách – jednou z nich bola Augusta Herényiová-Starostová, považovaná za prvú slovenskú primabalerínu. Nezabúda na výtvarné, hudobné dianie spájajúce sa s inscenáciami, na pôvodnú slovenskú tvorbu, na skladateľov Ilju Zeljenku, Eugena Suchoňa. V otázkach je priebežne konfrontovaný s faktami a historickými súvislosťami. Venuje sa aj témam spojeným s úspechom dlhoročnej kariéry tanečníka bez úrazov.
Rozhovor dopĺňa viac než sto fotografií z predstavení i vystúpení na európskych javiskách. Mnohé z nich prešli náročnou rekonštrukciou a neboli doteraz publikované. Súčasťou dialógu sú citácie dobových recenzií.
Druhá časť publikácie patrí spomienkam významných osobností z umeleckého prostredia – jeho kolegyniam, kolegom, žiakom a súčasníkom.
Súčasťou knihy je anglický preklad, ktorý umožní nahliadnuť do problematiky cudzincom.
Napísanie a vydanie publikácie z verejných zdrojov podporil Fond na podporu umenia.
