This beautiful gift book is the definitive guide to all things D&D and a must-have for core and casual fans alike.
The Worlds of George RR Martin
In the many realms of modern fantasy there is only one true King, and his name is George Raymond Richard Martin.
With A Song of Ice and Fire, Martin has created a world on a scale almost unrivalled by any other single writer. Approaching two million words and still evolving, this genuinely epic series of novels, with its deeply interlocking narratives, finely crafted drama and enormous range of characters, is a creation of extraordinary breadth.
So how did a writer best known for short stories come to craft such a gigantic sequence of novels, and what is the key to their extraordinary success? What sources – historical, literary and personal – did Martin draw upon in the writing, and what inspiration did they give him?
The Worlds of George R.R. Martin is an in-depth bringing together of the enormous range of inspirations behind Martin’s work – from historical borrowings as wide-ranging as the Roman empire, the Wars of the Roses and the Mongol conquests, to diverse literary and mythological texts, and Martin’s own family experience and biography.
Lidé – práce – animace
Zlínské ateliéry nejen jako prostředí fantazie, ale i jako místo práce a sociálních vztahů
Produkce animovaných filmů v kudlovských ateliérech, které v polovině třicátých let minulého století založil Jan Antonín Baťa, je součástí příběhu o světovém úspěchu české animace. Ovšem tam, kde vznikají filmy, je potřebná nejen inspirace a imaginace, ale také manuální práce, koordinace, komunikace či organizace výroby. S jakým vzděláním, dovednostmi a záměry přicházeli adepti animace do kudlovských ateliérů? Jak náročná byla kreslená, loutková nebo plošková animace pro tvůrčí spolupráci? V jakých podmínkách se odehrával pracovní, společenský a rodinný život tvůrců? Jak ovlivnila podmínky v ateliérech tzv. normalizace nebo třeba poptávka televize po animovaných seriálech pro pořad Večerníček?
Tato kniha je výsledkem výzkumu ateliérů jako místa tvorby, práce, každodenního života a pracovních i společenských kontaktů.

MCU: The Reign of Marvel Studios
Marvel Entertainment was a struggling toymaker not even twenty years ago. Today, Marvel Studios is the dominant player both in Hollywood and in global pop culture. But what accounts for its stunning rise?
In MCU, beloved culture writers Joanna Robinson, Dave Gonzales, and Gavin Edwards draw on more than a hundred interviews with actors, producers, directors, and writers to present the definitive chronicle of Marvel Studios and its sole, ongoing production, the Marvel Cinematic Universe. As they delve into the studio's key moments - from the contentious hiring of Robert Downey Jr. for Iron Man to the negotiations over Disney's acquisition of Marvel to studio head Kevin Feige's embrace of streaming TV - the authors demonstrate that the genius of Marvel was its resurrection and modification of Hollywood's old studio system. Dishy and authoritative, MCU is the first book to tell the Marvel Studios story in full - and an essential, effervescent account of popular culture.
Príroda, kultúra, film
Zborník Príroda, kultúra, film tvorí súbor príspevkov z 21. ročníka výročnej česko-slovenskej filmologickej konferencie, ktorá sa uskutočnila v dňoch 12. až 15. októbra 2023 v Krpáčove. Hlavná téma konferencie sa dotýkala spojenia prírody, kultúry a širokého spektra ich filmových reprezentácií. Film ako kultúrne médium od svojich začiatkov reflektoval v pohybe obrazu najrôznejšie prírodné fenomény, pokúšal sa približovať nevidené deje, zachytávať objavovanie prírody a kultúry, dokumentovať historické a vedecké výskumy. Na strane druhej film od začiatku fascinoval jednou zo svojich najmocnejších schopností – animizmom. Ako píše Jean Epstein, na plátne už niet mŕtvej prírody, oživená otvára ľudské vnímanie. Zborník obsahuje príspevky 20 autorov – renomovaných filmológov, umenovedcov, filozofov, estetikov z centier humanitných vied v Čechách i na Slovensku.
The Coen Brothers
Gangster movie, Western, film noir, rom com, screwball, musical, even the Biblical epic... There are few genres left untouched and untwisted by sibling visionaries Joel and Ethan Coen. Since 1984's Blood Simple, the inscrutable brothers have effortlessly forged their own cinematic path, avoiding prevailing trends while crafting bold, stylish and witty movies that feel fresh and distinctive despite being deeply rooted in their creators' filmic passion and knowledge.
This is a definitive guide to that path, bringing the reader through Joel and Ethan's 20 features (not counting the mezzanine) and exploring the themes, the tropes, the gags, the familiar faces - while also taking in all the Coen curios that litter this quirkily winding byway.
From Texas to Minnesota, from Homer to Shakespeare, from Bluegrass to Busby Berkeley, from wrestling to bowling, from lost hats to severed toes, this book covers everything that one might reasonably consider (to use a word that would likely make Joel and Ethan wince) 'Coenesque'... And then some.
Quentin Tarantino
A series of definitive guides to the most influential film directors of our time.
Charting the rise of these iconic filmmakers from their early years, through their breakout films and their evolution into cinematic greats, these neatly packaged guides are a must-have for any movie fan.
Each title contains perceptive and insightful text about the director’s work, their inspirations, their unique filmmaking style and their favoured collaborations with actors, screenwriters and musicians. With discussion and in-depth analysis of each film in their canon, and packed with images from their films, as well as intriguing behind-the-scenes shots, these books provide an intimate celebration of each director’s work.
Quentin Tarantino is one of the most iconic and best loved movie directors of the last two decades. Whether he's shooting up the Deep South, slicing through the Japanese underworld, blasting Nazi-occupied France or taking a flamethrower to '60s Los Angeles, Tarantino is a director who combines a radical vision with a sense of history: making movies precisely the way he wants, to celebrate the movies he loves.
Featuring insights into his inspirations - from martial-arts epics to Spaghetti Westerns - and dishing up fascinating details from his productions, this is an indispensable guide to Tarantino's thrilling and sometimes controversial body of work.
It takes in his searing debut Reservoir Dogs, the era-defining Pulp Fiction and the genre-subverting Django Unchained, among other modern classics, right up to his nostalgic masterpiece Once Upon A Time in Hollywood. Above all, this is a celebration of a filmmaker who has arguably made a bigger impact on modern pop culture than any other.

The Star Wars Archives. 1977–1983
Star Wars exploded onto our cinema screens in 1977, and the world has not been the same since. After watching depressing and cynical movies throughout the early 1970s, audiences enthusiastically embraced the positive energy of the Star Wars universe as they followed moisture farmer Luke Skywalker on his journey through a galaxy far, far away, meeting extraordinary characters like mysterious hermit Obi-Wan Kenobi, space pirates Han Solo and Chewbacca, loyal droids C-3PO and R2-D2, bold Princess Leia and the horrific Darth Vader, servant of the dark, malevolent Emperor.
Writer, director, and producer George Lucas created the modern monomyth of our time, one that resonates with the child in us all. He formed Industrial Light & Magic to develop cutting-edge special effects technology, which he combined with innovative editing techniques and a heightened sense of sound to give audiences a unique sensory cinematic experience.
In this first volume, made with the full cooperation of Lucasfilm, Lucas narrates his own story, taking us through the making of the original trilogy-Episode IV: A New Hope, Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, and Episode VI: Return of the Jedi-and bringing fresh insights into the creation of a unique universe. Complete with script pages, production documents, concept art, storyboards, on-set photography, stills, and posters, this tome is an authoritative exploration of the original saga as told by its creator.

Walt Disney's Donald Duck - The Ultimate History
Nothing succeeds like success, as the saying goes, but in the case of Donald Duck the opposite is true: the candor with which Donald reveals his weaknesses wins our hearts and stays with us forever.
Revisit Donald's life's work from nine decades in one of the most expansive illustrated publications on the Disney universe. Following Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse: The Ultimate History by TASCHEN, we witness the career of Mickey's only rival for the throne as Disney's most popular creation. From his debut in the Silly Symphony short film The Wise Little Hen on June 9, 1934, the authors trace Donald's more than 170 cartoons, groundbreaking adventures in comics and TV, and theme park appearances. As a special treat to his fans, they also dive deep into the vaults to tell the story of his unfinished film projects.
With unprecedented access to Disney's vast historical archives and collections as well as public and private collections, the authors illuminate Donald's life story with rare concept art, story sketches, background paintings, animation, and comic drawings as well as historical photographs. We encounter the work of all major Donald artists in both film and comics who defined his character, including a vast tribute to the "Duck Man" himself, master storyteller Carl Barks, alongside unseen early storyboard drawings.
In the history of comics, Donald Duck is the most frequently printed figure outside the superhero genre, and has appeared on screen more often than any other Disney character. Since the 1950s, Duckburg has expanded into a truly global village, with American artists being joined by a new generation of international colleagues.
As Carl Barks once said of Donald: "He is everything, he is everybody; he makes the same mistakes that we all make." He may often be unlucky, but this is precisely why everybody can relate to the world's most famous and best loved Duck, fittingly celebrated with this monumental tribute.

The Rainbow Age of Television
The ultimate deep dive into the revolution of queer TV
With the last decade’s television boom across a multitude of platforms, producing hundreds of network and streaming series, American audiences are being treated to a cascade of shows that some have trumpeted as a second Golden Age. But something completely new is stirring, too—the Rainbow Age. For the first time in the history of American television, we have shows in which LGBTQIA+ characters have evolved from being an anomaly to being an almost given and celebrated presence on the small screen. But what more can queer TV do? Is each new queer character really breaking ground? And has the curse of the fictional dead lesbian finally been defeated?
The Rainbow Age of Television tackles these questions and more as author Shayna Maci Warner tracks the history and evolution of LGBTQIA+ icons across the televised ages and into the future of streaming—from the very first televised queer kiss (we think) to the shows that are making household names and heroes of queer characters today. Warner uses original interviews with queer TV icons such as Lilly Wachowski and Stephanie Beatriz along with detailed history to investigate the constraints under which queer people have been allowed to exist on American television. Surveying seventy-plus years of broadcasts, The Rainbow Age of Television explores why queer people are so invested in—and conflicted by—the kinds of storytelling that TV has to offer. Above all, it’s a celebration of the LGBTQIA+ shows, their characters, and their creators that define this new age in television.

Poslední akční hrdinovia
Triumfy a pády kráľov hollywoodskych bitkárov
Príbeh o posledných akčných hrdinoch sa zrodil v máji 1990 v Cannes, kde za potlesku slávnych osobností vystúpili bok po boku Arnold Schwarzenegger a Sylvester Stallone. Po rokoch rivality sa konečne zmierili dve najväčšie akčné hviezdy na svete.
Nick de Semlyen v tejto strhujúcej knihe o zlatej ére akčného filmu mapuje „mŕtvolami“ posiatu cestu Stalloneho a Schwarzeneggera na pozadí Ameriky osemdesiatych rokov a studenej vojny. Čitateľom zároveň sprostredkúva dosiaľ neznáme príbehy osobností, ktoré kráčali v ich stopách: Chucka Norrisa a Jackieho Chana s ich výkopmi, zamračených drsných chlapov Dolpha Lundgrena a Stevena Seagala, aj sarkastických rebelov Jeana-Clauda Van Damma a Brucea Willisa. Čas však neúprosne plynul a éra neporaziteľných akčných hrdinov, ktorí svojimi svalmi, bojovým umením a modernými zbraňami zachraňovali svet, pomaly spela ku koncu. Keď trhák Jurský park v roku 1993 prevalcoval Posledného akčného hrdinu, slávne dni týchto svalovcov sa oficiálne pominuli. Nick de Semlyen čerpá z otvorených rozhovorov so samotnými hviezdami, ich kolegami, priateľmi aj rivalmi, vďaka čomu prináša ničím neskalené svedectvo o hollywoodskych časoch, keď sa nedala obmedziť sláva týchto hercov, ani spúšť, ktorú po sebe zanechávali – či už na plátne alebo mimo neho.

Almodovar: A Retrospective
A lavishly illustrated retrospective of Pedro Almodóvar, Spain’s foremost filmmaker, published to coincide with his 75th birthday.
Pedro Almodóvar is a master of contemporary cinema. An auteur with an infinite imagination, the creator of unforgettable characters, and promoter of a challenging and captivating cinema, his list of accolades is virtually unmatched.
Almodóvar came to prominence during La Movida Madrilena, a cultural renaissance that followed after the end of Francoist Spain. His first few films characterized the sense of sexual and political freedom of the period. In 1986, he established his own film production company, El Deseo, with his younger brother Agustín Almodóvar, who has been responsible for producing all of his films since Law of Desire. Almodóvar achieved international recognition for his black comedy-drama film Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, which was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, and went on to further success with the dark romantic comedy Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down!, the melodrama High Heels and the thriller Live Flesh. His subsequent two films, All About My Mother and Talk to Her, each earned him an Academy Award, for Best Foreign Film and Best Original Screenplay respectively. His subsequent films Volver, The Skin I Live In, Julieta and Pain and Glory were all in contention for the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
Pau Gómez provides unique insight on every one of Almodóvar’s twenty-two major films. Profusely illustrated with unseen archive and behind-the-scenes stills, and featuring many first-person observations, this is an insider’s perspective on Almodóvar’s legendary achievements.
