Rather than be forced to marry his accuser, Jack decides to run away to America with Eliza. Just as the ship is ready to sail Jack is arrested and dragged from the ship, leaving Eliza alone en route to New York with just a few shillings in her pocket.

A Vindication of the Rights of Woman
Writing in an age when the call for the rights of man had brought revolution to America and France, Mary Wollstonecraft produced her own declaration of female independence in 1792. Passionate and forthright, A Vindication of the Rights of Woman attacked the prevailing view of docile, decorative femininity, and instead laid out the principles of emancipation: an equal education for girls and boys, an end to prejudice, and for women to become defined by their profession, not their partner. Mary Wollstonecraft’s work was received with a mixture of admiration and outrage – Walpole called her ‘a hyena in petticoats’ – yet it established her as the mother of modern feminism.

Az inkák visszatérnek
A 16. században spanyol hódítók érkeztek a virágzó inka birodalomba, a mai Dél-Amerika területére. Az európai fegyveresek katonai fölénye és az eltérő kultúrák találkozása tragikus következményekkel járt az őslakosokra nézve. Ennek ellenére az itt élő népek története nem ért véget a gyarmatosítással: az inka mítoszok szerint uralkodóik feltámadnak. Részben ennek köszönhető, hogy az andoki kultúra búvópatakként túlélte az elnyomás évszázadait, és úgy tűnik, mostanság újra virágkorát éli.
Javier Zea Limában, Peru fővárosában született, és gyermekkora nagy részét az Andokban, egy hegyvidéki faluban töltötte. A Limai Katolikus Egyetemen történelmet tanult, majd Magyarországon a Pécsi Tudományegyetem filológia szakán és az ELTE spanyol nyelv, irodalom és kultúra mesterszakán szerzett diplomát. Kepes András Világfalu című sorozatának Peruban forgatott részein kísérte végig a stábot. Egy hazai utazási irodával együttműködve tematikus utazásokat szervez az Andokba. Könyvében az ott élő népek szövevényes történelmét, sokszínű kultúráját és változatos hétköznapjait mutatja be.

Lacná kniha Hrůza padá na seržanty
Will Stockdale, chlapec ze zapadlé farmy v Georgii, připomíná našeho dobrého vojáka Švejka v americkém vydání. Jeho kariéra v letectvu Spojených států je sérií komických situací a malérů pro všechny kolem, nejvíce pro seržanta Kinga. Naprostá bezelstnost chlapce, který rostl v panenské přírodě jen se zálesáckým otcem a ne zvládl umění „hladce“ se pohybovat mezi lidmi, je hrází, o niž se rozbíjejí všechny malichernosti, intriky a podlosti. Autor, zkušený americký voják a proslulý spisovatel, nechal Williho vyprávět jeho osudy osobně, plynulým tokem hovorové mluvy, která sice nejiskří brilantními obraty a gramaticky by „propadla“, ale zato má půvab v naprosté bezprostřednosti a zemitém lidovém vtipu. Knížka vyšla v USA mnohokrát.

?QUÉ PASA? Slovník slangu a hovorové španělštiny
Současná hovorová a slangová španělština se velice rychle vyvíjí a mění a díky televizi, filmové tvorbě, internetu a dalším médiím se také rychle šíří do všeobecného povědomí. Z některých slangových termínů se tak časem stávají termíny běžně používané a rozšířené. Díky mnohovýznamovosti velkého množství španělských slov mívají běžná slova kromě svého oficiálního významu i několik významů slangových, které lze často rozlišit až podle kontextu nebo prostředí, z něhož text pochází. Uživateli španělštiny, a to i velmi zkušenému, se proto může nezřídka stát, že ve filmu, sdělovacích prostředcích nebo i běžném hovoru s rodilým mluvčím narazí na termíny nebo obraty, které nejsou prakticky v žádném všeobecném slovníku k nalezení nebo které mají v daném kontextu zcela jiný slangový či hovorový význam, než je ten obecně uváděný. Právě s tím vám může náš slovník pomoci. Slovník obsahuje přehled termínů a obratů současné hovorové španělštiny a slangu mladých. Najdete v něm nejen aktuální slovní zásobu, ale i některé výrazy, které užívá starší generace nebo které se vyskytují v knihách. Obsahuje slovíčka a obraty, na které můžete narazit na internetu, ve filmech, tisku a médiích. Slovník je zaměřen na současný hovorový jazyk používaný ve Španělsku, obsáhlé téma americké hovorové španělštiny si zaslouží vlastní samostatnou publikaci. České ekvivalenty i překlady španělských obratů a příkladů jsou voleny tak, aby pokud možno co nejlépe stylově vystihovaly španělské výrazy, a uživatel si tak mohl udělat lepší představu o skutečném užití daných slov a obratů. Vzhledem k zaměření současné slangové španělštiny jsou tudíž i české překlady často dosti vzdálené spisovné češtině. Pro zachování co největší aktuálnosti jsme při sestavování slovníku čerpali nejen ze slovníku hovorové španělštiny a slangu, ale také z vlastních zkušeností, z pobytu ve španělsky mluvících zemích a z internetových zdrojů.

Bourbon
Once and for all, America learns the likely inventor of its beloved bourbon. Bourbon transcends mere liquor. This potent, amber-colored drink is deeply engrained in American culture and tangled in American history. From the early days of moonshine to the myriad distilleries that proliferate around the country today, bourbon has come to symbolize American spirits. In Bourbon: An Illustrated Rise, Fall, and Rebirth of an American Whiskey, award-winning whiskey author Fred Minnick lays out the historical connection between America and bourbon, from Congress passing whiskey-protection laws to consumers standing in long lines just for a glimpse of a rare bottle of Pappy Van Winkle. Bourbon: An Illustrated Rise, Fall, and Rebirth of an American Whiskey begins in the 1700s with Irish, Scottish, and French settlers setting up stills and making distilled spirits in the New World. Filled with more than 100 illustrations and photos,Bourbon unfolds as a sort of loose mystery as Minnick explores who most likely invented the sweet corn liquor we now know as bourbon. Minnick studies the men who've been championed as the inventors over time, from Daniel Boone to Baptist minister Elijah Craig and, based on his new research, definitively answers who most likely invented bourbon. We'll drink to that!

A benti macska
William S. Burroughs, a beatnemzedék kiemelkedő alakja ebben a könyvében kevésbé ismert, szelídebb oldalát mutatja meg. Az eredetileg mindössze 133 példányban megjelent mű megható és szellemes értekezés macska és ember viszonyáról, amely a Burroughs erőteljes stílusát kedvelők és a macskabarátok számára is különleges élményt nyújt.
Az egymást mozaikszerűen követő emlékfoszlányokban szívet melengetően jelenik meg a szerző és a különböző életszakaszaiban társául szegődött macskák közötti meglepően szoros kapcsolat. Az ellesett pillanatokról, apró történésekről, ember és állat között kialakuló bonyolult viszonyról mesélő töredékek ismerősek lehetnek valamennyi macskatulajdonosnak, aki kedvencét simogatva valaha elgondolkodott az emberiségnek a macskákhoz fűződő hosszú és titokzatos kapcsolatáról, kezdve az egyiptomi macskakultusztól egészen a mai, társaságot és akár vigaszt is nyújtó városi cicákig.
WILLIAM S. BURROUGHS (1914-1997) amerikai író, esszéista és előadóművész műveinek nagy része saját, elsősorban pszichedelikus élményein alapul. Harvardon szerzett diplomája után barátságot kötött Jack Kerouackal és Allen Ginsberggel, akikkel a lázadást megtestesítő beatnemzedék vezéralakjai lettek. A több magyar kiadást is megélt Meztelen ebéd és más művei után a nálunk most először megjelenő A benti macska új élményt fog nyújtani a szerző régi rajongói számára is.
