Perhaps beyond . . .

Lacná kniha Something Out of Place (-70%)
The blistering non-fiction debut from the author of the critically acclaimed A Girl is a Half-formed Thing
'A fearless, interrogative work that speaks so much to structural inequality and misogyny. A fierce and fascinating manifesto in McBride's persuasive prose' Sinead Gleeson
Here, Eimear McBride unpicks the contradictory forces of disgust and objectification that control and shame women. From playground taunts of 'only sluts do it' but 'virgins are frigid', to ladette culture, and the arrival of 'ironic' porn, via Debbie Harry, the Kardashians and the Catholic church - she looks at how this prejudicial messaging has played out in the past, and still surrounds us today.
In this subversive essay, McBride asks - are women still damned if we do, damned if we don't? How can we give our daughters (and sons) the unbounded futures we want for them? And, in this moment of global crisis, might our gift for juggling contradiction help us to find a way forward?
'Eimear McBride is that old fashioned thing, a genius' Guardian

OWC Four Comedies : The Braggart Soldier, The Brothers Menaechmus, The Haunted House, The Pot of Gold
Plautus was the single greatest influence on Western comedy. Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors and Moliere's The Miser are two subsequent classics directly based on Plautine originals. Plautus himself borrowed from the Greeks, but his jokes, rapid dialogue, bawdy humour, and irreverent characterizations are the original work of an undisputed genius. The comedies printed here show him at his best, and professor Segal's translations keep their fast, rollicking pace intact, making these the most readable and actable versions available. His introduction considers Plautus' place in ancient comedy, examines his continuing influence, and celebrates his power to entertain.

On Liberal Education and the Autopoiesis of Universities
Univerzity po celém světě se v současnosti potýkají s četnými problémy.

Univerzity jsou odděleny od svého společenského a politického okolí, což vytváří atmosféru vzájemné nedůvěry. Zároveň to vede k zavádění nevhodných kontrolních opatření, jako je metrické hodnocení. Publikace se zabývá otázkami týkajícími se těchto problémů, tematizuje sebeutvářející se charakter univerzity (tzv. autopoiesis) a zahrnuje několik podrobných případových studií.
