Slovutný pán prezident, 2. vydanie
Zúfalí ľudia píšu prezidentovi Tisovi. Žiadajú ho o pomoc. O záchranu života. A čo na
to on? Američanka Madeline Vadkerty vypátrala v slovenských archívoch stovky
osobných listov adresovaných prezidentovi, ktoré nám ponúkajú neznámy obraz
holokaustu na Slovensku.
V tejto knihe sa dozvieš:
- ako protižidovské zákony zasiahli do každodenných životov židovských občanov
- aké pocity a obavy vyjadrovali vo svojich listoch prezidentovi, keď ich životy začal
radikálne ovplyvňovať nový židovský kódex
- ako ľudia prežívali neistotu, keď čakali na rozhodnutie o udelení výnimky, ktorá im
mohla zachrániť život
- ako Tisova kancelária reagovala na tieto prosby
- ako Madeline Vadkerty postupovala pri svojom výskume a spracovávaní príbehov
pisateľov a pisateliek listov
Holokaust sa neodohral len v dobytčích vagónoch, na apelplacoch a v plynových komorách
táborov smrti. Jeho prvé, ešte takmer neviditeľné dejstvá prebiehali v tichej beznádeji za
zatvorenými dverami bytov, tam, kde nešťastní a ponížení ľudia písali svoje zúfalé prosby
prezidentovi Tisovi. Očakávali od neho záchranu, milosť a pomoc v ťažkých chvíľach, do
ktorých sa dostali po vydaní rozsiahlych protižidovských zákonov. Očakávali ju právom. Bol
predsa kňaz.
Madeline Vadkerty pátrala aj po ďalších osudoch pisateľov a pisateliek týchto listov. A boli
to zväčša tragické osudy. V knihe Slovutný pán prezident nám ponúka trinásť silných
dokumentárnych poviedok, ktoré otvárajú málo známe kapitoly holokaustu na Slovensku.
Ukazuje nám, ako protižidovská politika vojnového Slovenského štátu ničila životy
obyčajných ľudí, z ktorých spravila občanov druhej kategórie len preto, že boli Židia. Všetky
kroky, ktoré štát podnikal totiž mali jediný cieľ – raz a navždy sa ich zbaviť.
Madeline Vadkerty nás sprevádza aj svojím výskumom, a tak sa celkom prirodzene stávame
svedkami otvárania nezahojených bolestivých rán našej nedávnej histórie. Knihu Slovutný
pán prezident napísala v spolupráci s Jánom Púčekom a v Absynte vychádza mimo edície už
v druhom vydaní v mäkkej väzbe.
Gardens That Can Save the World
An exploration of the many ways in which green spaces can be the solution to some of our most pressing problems, from loneliness to climate change. Gardens and green spaces are at the vanguard of positive change. They are modern-day crucibles for ideas and innovation that are providing solutions to some of our most persistent problems, whether loneliness or illness, flooding or drought.
Around the world, green-fingered thinkers and pioneering plants-people are harnessing the power of the wild to quietly find small-scale strategies to reverse these ills. It’s no longer just about aesthetics, but about what the great outdoors can do – save water, transform mental health, bridge social divides, educate vulnerable children, reimagine polluting industries and provide much reason for optimism in a rapidly changing world. Celebrating both the garden and gardener as integral players in a healthier future this book presents a series of strategies that will help the reader reevaluate the potential that lies in green spaces near them by looking at how they have been applied in gardens around the world.
Sixty-five projects demonstrate how gardens can repair, heal, empower, nourish and reimagine, whilst an easy-to-read coloured code links each project to others in the book that solve a similar problem, whether soil health, education or pollution. Profiles of ten Green Thinkers dotted throughout delve more deeply into the inspiring work that these pioneers are leading. A glossary of plants, materials and techniques at the back of book encourages readers to apply the lessons learnt in their own garden, be that a windowsill or an acre.
