Rebel Writers The Accidental Feminists
'Make this your next inspirational read. Trust us, it's Oprah's Book Club worthy' Vice
In London in 1958, a play by a 19-year-old redefined women's writing in Britain. It also began a movement that would change women's lives forever. The play was A Taste of Honey and the author, Shelagh Delaney, was the first in a succession of young women who wrote about their lives with an honesty that dazzled the world. They rebelled against sexism, inequality and prejudice and in doing so challenged the existing definitions of what writing and writers should be. Bypassing the London cultural elite, their work reached audiences of millions around the world, paved the way for profound social changes and laid the foundations of second-wave feminism.
After Delaney came Edna O'Brien, Lynne Reid-Banks, Charlotte Bingham, Nell Dunn, Virginia Ironside and Margaret Forster; an extraordinarily disparate group who were united in their determination to shake the traditional concepts of womanhood in novels, films, television, essays and journalism. They were as angry as the Angry Young Men, but were also more constructive and proposed new ways to live and love in the future. They did not intend to become a literary movement but they did, inspiring other writers to follow. Not since the Brontes have a group of young women been so determined to tell the truth about what it is like to be a girl.

Magányos háború
A ?Magányos háború a rozsavai kurd nők drámai történetét meséli el. Az Iszlám Állam sokáig legyőzhetetlennek tűnt, de a háború sújtotta Szíria északi részén a kurd közösség jelentős győzelmet aratott felette, a női milíciák pedig különösen fontos szerepet játszottak az Irakban ostromolt civilek tízezreinek megmentésében.
Kik ezek a rozsavai forradalmár nők, és milyen tanulságokat hordoz a történetük? Miben különböznek az iraki kurdoktól, hogyan harcolnak az Iszlám Állam ellen, és hogyan viszonyul mindehhez Törökország? A szerző a kurd feminista gerillák egy csoportjának életét nyomon követve megpróbál választ adni ezekre a kérdésekre.
A könyv magyar kiadásához a megrázó események helyszínét szintén megjárt Jászberényi Sándor írt előszót.

A Dalam könyve
„Van élet a Trónok harca után" Smoking BarrelsLadanniak és hurrogónok békét kötöttek. A trónfosztott királyok elmenekültek, a túlélők lassan előmerészkednek a romok alól.
De valóban véget ért a háború? Ha igen, miért késik a régóta vágyott nyugalom? Miért fogynak megállíthatatlanul a hurrogónok, hova tűnnek a lasnapoli kereskedőhajók és miért menti meg korábbi ádáz ellensége a száműzött királyt? Ha pedig a háború csak a kezdete volt egy sötétebb korszaknak, meg lehet-e még fordítani az események baljós áramlását?
Lombmélyfények kerülnek elő a mélyből, kihalt városok népesülnek be ismét, és feledésre ítélt szerelmek lángolnak fel – a feltörő múlt azonban elfeledettnek hitt bűnöket is a napvilágra hoz, és forgószélként kavarja fel Ladann-völgy életét a trilógia záró kötetében.
SCHMAL RÓZA fantasy-trilógiájában kibontakozik a ladanni birodalom története, a nemesi családok hatalomért és szerelemért folytatott harca. A lenyűgöző, képzeletbeli középkori világot a szerző által rajzolt, a kötetekben bekövetkező változásokat megjelenítő térkép, családfák, vadonatúj városképek, és egy teljessé vált ladanni lexikon egészíti ki.
„Gyerekkoromban szerettem történeteket kitalálni és rajzokat készíteni hozzájuk. Mire felnőttem, ebből az utóbbi maradt: miután elvégeztem a Képzőművészeti Egyetem festő szakát, könyvillusztrálással kezdtem foglalkozni. Ladann-völgy első terveit kamaszkoromban, a szentendrei HÉV-en és balatoni nyarakon firkáltam a füzeteimbe, de csak akkor tértem vissza hozzájuk, amikor már a fiam volt kamasz, és nem nagyon lehetett vele másról beszélgetni, mint a Trónok harcáról. Ezek a beszélgetések felidézték, hogy milyen jó volt a saját kitalált királyságom történetét szőni. A felfedezés, hogy ezt most is megtehetem, hirtelen jött, és a mai napig örömmel tölt el.”

Process and Aesthetics
While Alfred North Whitehead did not dedicate any books or articles to aesthetics specifically, aesthetic motifs permeate his entire philosophical opus. Despite this, aestheticians have devoted little attention to Whitehead; most attempts to reconstruct Whitehead’s aesthetics have come from process philosophers, and even in that context aesthetics has never occupied a central position. In this book, four scholars of aesthetics provide another angle from which Whiteheadian aesthetics might be reconstructed. Paying special attention to the notion of aesthetic experience, the authors analyze abstraction versus concreteness, immediacy vs. mediation, and aesthetic contextualism vs. aesthetic isolationism. For their interpretation of Whiteheadian aesthetics, the concepts of creativity and rhythm are crucial. Using these concepts, the book interprets the motif of the processes by which experience is harmonized, the sensation of the quality of the whole, and directedness towards novelty.
The first chapter introduces Whitehead’s philosophical method of descriptive generalization. This method assumes that every philosophical system is based on a particular entry point. We show that for Whitehead this entry point was aesthetics. Chapter Two compares Whitehead and Dewey’s philosophies to show that both viewed aesthetic experience in terms of complex rhythms; this helps us better understand the differences and the continuities between everyday experience and art. Chapter Three compares Whitehead’s ideas with those of Henri Bergson, showing the way art reveals the form of immediate experience and how the aesthetic experience of art relates to truth. The final chapter details the processes that constitute aesthetic experience in a narrower sense, analyzing aesthetic experience from the perspective of the types of abstractive processes it involves and the complex types of experience it produces.

Adventures in Democracy
Democracy is a living, breathing thing and Erica Benner has spent a lifetime thinking about the role ordinary citizens play in keeping it alive: from her childhood in post-war Japan, where democracy was imposed on a defeated country, to working in post-communist Poland, with its sudden gaps of wealth and security. This book draws on her experiences and the deep history of self-ruling peoples - going back to ancient Greece, the French revolution and Renaissance Florence - to rethink some of the toughest questions that we face today.
What do democratic ideals of equality mean in a world obsessed with competition, wealth, and greatness? How can we hold the powerful to account? Can we find enough common ground to keep sharing democratic power in the future? Challenging well-worn myths of heroic triumph over tyranny, Benner reveals the inescapable vulnerabilities of people power, inviting us to consider why democracy is worth fighting for and the role each of us must play.
