Dům s dvěma věžemi


Dům se dvěma věžemi je mimořádně silná kniha o paměti, odvaze a rodinném příběhu, kterému nelze uniknout. Maciej Zaremba Bielawski, polsko-švédský novinář žijící ve Stockholmu, v ní mapuje osudy svých rodičů – jednak otce, reformátora polské psychiatrie a vězně tzv. oflagů, německých zajateckých táborů pro důstojníky, a jednak matky, která kvůli svému židovskému původu prožila hrůzy druhé světové války i Varšavské povstání. S plným nasazením a reportážní přesností odkrývá nejen příběh své rodiny, ale i hlubší vrstvy historie – od kořenů specificky polského antisemitismu po „tábory s lidskou tváří“, spravované německým wehrmachtem, které za války působily jako surreálné ostrůvky humanity. Strhující literárně-reportážní text, ověnčený cenou Ryszarda Kapuścińského za nejlepší polsky vydanou reportážní knihu (2019), spojuje sílu osobního svědectví s fascinující historickou analýzou. Je to kniha, která dojímá, provokuje a zároveň zůstává dlouho v paměti. Spisovatel a novinář MACIEJ ZAREMBA BIELAWSKI se narodil v Poznani v roce 1951 do rodiny lékařů Oskara Bielawského a Elżbiety Immerdauer. V důsledku státem organizované vlny antisemitismu byl v roce 1969 přinucen spolu s matkou a dvěma bratry emigrovat do Švédska. Vystudoval obor Dějiny idejí na Stockholmské univerzitě a od roku 1989 začal psát pro noviny Dagens Nyheter a také pro časopis Moderna tider. Za své publicistické texty získal řadu ocenění, např. Cenu švédské akademie nebo významnou novinářskou cenu Stora Journalistpriset (2006). Ve švédštině je autorem knih jako Minken i folkhemmet (1992), De rena och de andra : om tvangssteriliseringar, rashygien och arvsynd (1999) aj. V roce 2009 mu byl udělen titul doctor honoris causa na Lundské univerzitě. V polštině mu vyšly např. knihy: Polski hydraulik i inne opowieści ze Szwecji (2008), Higieniści. Z dziejów eugeniki (2014) a Leśna mafia (2014). Za autobiograficky laděný text Dům se dvěma věžemi (Dom z dwiema wieżami, 2018) získal v roce 2019 Cenu Ryszarda Kapuścińského za nejlepší polsky vydanou literární reportáž.

Hans Sloane's Library Collection and the Production of Knowledge


On his death in 1753, Hans Sloane's collection of books and manuscripts was estimated at 50,000 volumes, and, combined with his collected objects, would become the founding core of the British Library and British Museum. Delving into the particular history of this remarkable collection, Alice Wickenden asks wide-reaching questions about archival practices and knowledge production, showing how books function both as and alongside objects. Hers is the first book to bring the theoretical questions and methodologies arising from material culture and book history alongside a full-length study of the founding book collection of the British Library. Each carefully-selected case study raises questions that, though seemingly playful, strike at the heart of past and present practices of collecting and knowledge production: how might books of dried plants be books? Is something a book if nobody can read it? Why collect duplicates? And how, after all, do we actually define a library?

The Wild One


The arrival of the very young Dorothy - fourteen years old, redheaded, freckled - is a breath of fresh air in the life of Joaquim Simon - in his sixties, rich and divorced. Wanting to turn this ''wild one'' into a perfect model of which he can be proud, Joaquim takes her in and begins to shape her into his perfect masterpiece, as in the myth of Pygmalion. Dependence and survival, destruction and growth, are the opposites that define the crossroads of experiences and events that shape The Wild One. The novel tells the story of Dorothy, a girl who, living with Joaquim Simon and in the midst of a desire that is never fulfilled, loses her individual freedom and, at the same time, imperceptibly changes her identity. Joaquim controls everything: her name, her behaviour, her education, even her memories. These feelings of possession towards her make him aware not only of his loneliness and cruelty, but also of his old age. The Wild One is structured in such a way that, from our position as readers, we are forced to participate in the thoughts of these two characters through the use of parentheses that complete what is not said. This strategy not only heightens the tension, but also makes us complicit in their transformations and secrets, anticipating their dramatic end.

Anyák napjai


"Az anyaság Svetlana Žuchová világában nem ünnep, a gondoskodás nem megnyugvást hoz, hanem új kérdéseket. Zorának a kisfia okoz fejfájást, Tamarának az idősödő anyja, és csak remélni tudják, hogy idővel minden megoldódik. Az Anyák napjai az észrevételről szól: arról, hogy néha az anyaság maga is megfigyelés, kísérlet, tévedés. „Tibor figyel rá, egyszeriben boldog, talán tényleg felesleges minden aggodalma, talán mostantól minden rendben lesz. Talán csak egy őrült elsőgyerekes anyuka, aki túlságosan aggódik, talán túloz, amikor úgy érzékeli, hogy Tibort semmi nem érdekli, hogy nem fordul meg, amikor szólongatja, kitér a tekintetével, és nem alszik. Ő lenne a világon a legboldogabb, ha tényleg saját magában lenne a hiba.“"
