The Jungle Book
The Jungle Book (1894) is a collection of stories by English author Rudyard Kipling. The stories were first published in magazines in 1893–94. The original publications contain illustrations, some by Rudyard's father, John Lockwood Kipling. Kipling was born in India and spent the first six years of his childhood there. After about ten years in England, he went back to India and worked there for about six-and-a-half years. These stories were written when Kipling lived in Vermont. There is evidence that it was written for his daughter Josephine, who died in 1899 aged six, after a rare first edition of the book with a poignant handwritten note by the author to his young daughter was discovered at the National Trust's Wimpole Hall in Cambridgeshire in 2010. The tales in the book (and also those in The Second Jungle Book which followed in 1895, and which includes five further stories about Mowgli) are fables, using animals in an anthropomorphic manner to give moral lessons. The verses of The Law of the Jungle, for example, lay down rules for the safety of individuals, families and communities. Kipling put in them nearly everything he knew or "heard or dreamed about the Indian jungle." Other readers have interpreted the work as allegories of the politics and society of the time. The best-known of them are the three stories revolving around the adventures of an abandoned "man cub" Mowgli who is raised by wolves in the Indian jungle. The most famous of the other stories are probably "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi", the story of a heroic mongoose, and "Toomai of the Elephants", the tale of a young elephant-handler. As with much of Kipling's work, each of the stories is preceded by a piece of verse, and succeeded by another.

Spoken Sibe: Morphology of the Inflected Parts of Speech
V současné době je šivejština jedinou ústní variantou mandžuštiny, která se ve skutečnosti užívá. S 20 000 až 30 000 mluvčích je také nejrozšířenějším mluveným tunguzským jazykem. Národ Šive, který žije na severozápadní hranici dnešního Sin-ťiangu, ujgurské autonomní provincie Číny, je tvořen potomky posádky mužů mandžuské armády z 18. století, kteří sem byli posláni poté, co byla oblast obsazena Mandžuy, kteří měli za úkol střežit nově zřízenou hranici mezi Mandžuskou říší a Ruskem. Jakožto vojáci cizí armády zůstali izolováni od domorodého tureckého a mongolského národa, což vyústilo v až zázračné zachování jazyka.
V roce 1990, kdy ústní varianty mandžuštiny v historickém Mandžusku zanikly, nebo jsou nyní na pokraji vyhynutí, šivejština stále přežívá jako mluvený jazyk všech generací národa Šive v autonomním kraji Chapchal Sibe a jako jazyk střední a starší generace prakticky ve všech ostatních šivejských osadách Sin-ťiangu. Nyní, přestože je šivejsko-čínský bilingvismus velmi rozšířen, počet šivejsky mluvících, včetně mladých lidí, je stále ještě značně vysoký.
Předkládaný popis gramatického fungování dvou hlavních slovních druhů – skloňování podstatných jmen a časování sloves – je dokumentován na příkladech a vzorových textech a poskytuje základní obecné informace o šivejštině a jejích mluvčích.
Záměrem této práce je nabídnout čtenáři komplexnější obraz šivejštiny tak, jak je používána v současné době na svém historickém a kulturním území.

The Book of Disquiet
The Book of Disquiet is one of the great literary works of the twentieth century. Written over the course of Fernando Pessoa's life, it was first published in 1982, pieced together from the thousands of individual manuscript pages left behind by Pessoa after his death in 1935. Now this fragmentary modernist masterpiece appears in a major new edition that unites Margaret Jull Costa's celebrated translation with the most complete version of the text ever produced. It is presented here, for the first time in English, by order of original composition, and accompanied by facsimiles of the original manuscript. Narrated principally by an assistant bookkeeper named Bernardo Soares - an alias of sorts for Pessoa himself - The Book of Disquiet is 'the autobiobraphy of someone who never existed', a mosaic of dreams, of hope and despair; a hymn to the streets and cafes of 1930s Lisbon, and an extraordinary record of the inner life of one of the century's most important writers. This new edition represents the most complete vision of Pessoa's genius.

Lacná kniha Big Penis Book (-90%)
After the bust out success of The Big Book of Breasts TASCHEN presents the perfect companion, The Big Penis Book.
When it comes to pleasure, size doesnt matter; as we all know its quality, not quantity, that counts. But lets admit it: a big penis
is undeniably compelling. Big shoulders, big lapels, and big hair may come and go, but the big penis never goes out of fashion. With those possessing more than 8 inches (20 ) making up less than 2% of the worlds population, this rare accessory will
always fascinate.
In The Big Penis Book we explore the centuries-old fascination with the large phallus, a fascination common to men and women alike. This hefty book is profusely illustrated with over 400 historic photos of spectacular male endowment
s, including rare photos of the legendary John Holmes. The majority of the photographs are from the 1970s, when the sexual revolution first freed photographers to depict the male entirely nude. Photographers include Bob Mizer of Athletic Model Guild,
David Hurles of Old Reliable, Colt, Falcon, Sierra Domino, Third World, and Champion Studios, with each of these iconic photographers interviewed or profiled, along with information about each of their models. And if this isnt enough, the book clos
es with a special surprise comparable to the Guinness Book of Records Norma Stitz featured in The Big Book of Breasts! Can you guess what body part Dian is dissecting next?

The Belles - A szépség ára
Légy üdvözölve egy szenvedéllyel és varázslattal teli világban, ahol a szépség hatalom!
Camellia Beauregard különleges lány: Belle. Orléans fényűző világában a Belle-lányokat köztisztelet övezi, mert ők irányítják a szépséget, a szépség pedig olyan érték, amit mindenki a legjobban kíván. Orléans-ban az emberek szürkének születnek, csúnyának, átkozottnak, és csak egy Belle-lány tehetsége, segítsége révén képesek megszépülni.
Camellia számára azonban nem elég csak Belle-nek lenni. Arra vágyik, hogy ő legyen a kegyelt, akit Orléans királynője kiválaszt, hogy velük éljen a királyi palotában, és a királyi család és az udvar legmagasabb rangú személyeinek szépségéről gondoskodjon.
Ám amint Camellia és Belle-nővérei megérkeznek az udvarba, nyilvánvalóvá válik, hogy kegyeltnek lenni nem mindig olyan, amilyennek képzelte. A palota aranyozott falai sötét titkokat rejtenek, és a lány hamar rájön, hogy ereje sokkal nagyobb – és halálosabb –, mint valaha is képzelte volna.
Amikor a királynő megkéri, hogy képességét használva mentse meg gyengélkedő lánya, a hercegnő életét, Camellia lehetetlen döntésre kényszerül: ha visszautasítja a királynőt, megvédi önmagát és Belle-nővéreit, azonban ha engedelmeskedik, az egész világot megváltoztatja.
Ez a varázslat ugyanis tiltott… és nem véletlenül.
