For thousands of years, cats and humankind have been inextricably intertwined. From the Ancient Egyptian Goddess Bastet to the cat demon Yokai of Japan, people have been fascinated, enthralled and horrified in equal measure by everything feline-related.
Throughout history, cats have been revered and reviled and everything in between. Worshipped as divine, blamed for plague and pestilence, or labelled as the demonic companions of witches - whether fair or foul, no other animal has attracted such consistent attention, a fact strongly illustrated by the vast number of myths, legends, sayings, superstitions and tales that exist regarding these enigmatic creatures.
Today, mankind is no less under the feline thrall, with cat memes, videos and celebrity cat accounts numbering amongst the highest-ranking entertainment across the internet. Unknown to many, this cultural fascination has a deep and rich history that spans continents and millennia. Discover the roots of this age-old captivation with our feline counterparts and why they have been loved - or otherwise - by so many.

Zrcadlo hospodaření
Kniha si klade za cíl nabídnout čtenáři jiný pohled na účetnictví než jen jako na nudný soubor pevných čísel. Účetnictví totiž ve skutečnosti bylo a stále je měnícím se mechanismem s pestrou škálou podob. Za tímto účelem není pozornost zaměřena jen na účetnictví ve smyslu vedení záznamů a jejich technické podoby. Jádrem zkoumání je spíše účetní myšlení, tedy způsoby, jakými byla skutečnost v různých dobách pojímána, tříděna a vykládána prostřednictvím hospodářských instrukcí, dobových příruček, učebnic, metodických pokynů či právních předpisů. Účetnictví je zde proto nahlíženo především jako odraz dobové představy o uspořádání a kontrole hospodářské reality, nikoli jen jako soubor formálních zápisů.

Don't Forget We're Here Forever
Why are young people finding their way back to faith?'One of those books I find myself being (excuse the pun) evangelical about, pressing it into friends' hands like a Gideon's Bible' Sunday Times'Spellbinding . . . An incredible exploration of how young people are navigating the complex world we find ourselves in today' Katy Hessel, author of The Story of Art without Men*A TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER**A TELEGRAPH, GQ, NEW YORKER AND PROSPECT BOOK OF THE YEAR*When several of her friends turned to faith in their twenties, Lamorna Ash sensed the beginnings of a phenomenon.

A Year of Ikigai
Find purpose and meaning in your day-to-day life with A Year of Ikigai, a collection of 5-minute daily reads, over 365 days, for easy understanding and integration of this Japanese philosophy.Ikigai is not a Venn diagram with a sweet spot in the middle. It''s not your bliss, nor is it your one life purpose. It''s not a word or concept from Okinawa. It’s not related to longevity. And it doesn’t mean that you never retire. So, what is ikigai? Iki comes from the verb ikiru, which means “to live.” But it is not referring to your life as a whole, as in a lifetime, but rather your “everyday life.” The concept of ikigai aligns and relates to finding meaning in your day-to-day living. In A Year of Ikigai, ikigai expert Nicholas Kemp introduces the Japanese concept of ikigai through 365 days of practical tips, exercises, and real-life examples to help you apply the principles of ikigai in tangible ways to your life, so you can answer the most important question:What gets you up in the morning?
De stele en aiguille: Chroniques de la reconstitution d’un habit campaniforme
Réaliser un habit néolithique complet est un défi ambitieux ; cet ouvrage en présente l’aboutissement. Il est issu de mon mémoire de master en archéologie préhistorique a l’Université de Geneve, soutenu en septembre 2025. A l’aide de sources archéologiques centrées sur le Campaniforme périalpin, ainsi que de sources historiques et ethnographiques, j’ai tenté de reproduire au mieux les pratiques textiles du passé, afin d’en proposer une vision plausible. Les motifs géométriques complexes présents sur les steles anthropomorphes du site du Petit-Chasseur (Valais, Suisse), ont servi de base visuelle pour la conception du vetement. Cette étude aborde des sujets tres variés, tels que : la place de l’artisanat textile au sein des sociétés préhistoriques, autant du point de vue des modes de production et de l’investissement de ressources que de la valeur sociale ; la diversité des possibilités techniques liées a la fabrication de textiles, immense et encore peu explorée ; l’importance de l’expérimentation archéologique au sein de la recherche, et son intéret autant scientifique que médiatique. Bien qu’ancré dans des bases scientifiques rigoureuses, ce travail est également tres personnel. Il raconte, étape par étape, le long processus d’apprentissage qui a mené a la production de cet habit, avec son lot d’échecs, d’incertitudes, et – enfin – de réussites.
Sceptred Isle
The death of Edward I in 1307 marked the beginning of a period of intense turmoil and change in England. The fourteenth century ushered in the beginning of the bloody Hundred Years' War with France, an epic conflict with Scotland that would last into the sixteenth century, famine in Northern Europe and the largest human catastrophe in known history, the Black Death.
Through the epic drama of regicide, war, the prolonged spectre of bubonic plague, religious antagonism, revolt and the end of a royal dynasty, this book tells the story of the fourteenth century via the lives of Edward II, Edward III and Richard II - three very different monarchs, each with their own egos and ambitions, each with their own ideas about England and what it meant to wield power.
Alongside the lives of the last Plantagenets, it also uncovers lesser-known voices and untold stories to give a new portrait of a fractured monarchy, the birth of the struggle between Europeanism and nationalism, social rebellion and a global pandemic.
Sceptred Isle is a thrilling narrative account of a century of revolution, shifting power and great change - social, political and cultural - shedding new light on a pivotal period of English history and the people who lived it.

Christopher Bruell
Brings together the most remarkable essays on classical and modern philosophy by noted political philosopher Christopher Bruell. Christopher Bruell (1942–2024) was one of the great modern interpreters of classical and modern political philosophy. This volume includes almost all the essays, lectures, and book chapters that he published during a remarkable scholarly career that spanned more than four decades. Five of these writings focus on Leo Strauss, with whom Bruell studied as a young man. But the scope of the collection extends beyond Bruell's work on Strauss. The essays take up a wide range of topics, including liberal education, the problem of relativism, the American Founding, the nature of citizenship, and the question of happiness. Above all, the collection focuses on the recovery of classical political philosophy and includes pathbreaking essays on Thucydides, Plato, Xenophon, and Aristotle. Also included in this volume are three previously unpublished essays.
