Seville


The new fourth edition of Bradt's Seville, thoroughly updated by a long-term resident of the Andalusian capital, celebrates everything that this seductive, romantic, hedonistic and culturally rich Spanish city has to offer. Visitors find that stereotypical tropes of this larger-than-life city add to, rather than detract from, its multiple charms: the mesmerising rhythms of flamenco, and in spring - the best time to visit, with comfortably warm days - the aromatic blossom of the bitter orange trees and the haunting hooded figures of Semana Santa (Holy Week). Few visitors fail to be seduced by the fun-loving sevillanos, the magical architecture and the fabulous food. Surrendering to the high-octane passion of the Feria, where flirtatious dancing is as essential as your frilly frock, is a must. Going back in time, trace this compact city's long history from the Roman mosaics of the Antiquarium to the intricate plasterwork and coloured azulejo ceramic tiles of King Pedro's Alcazar (Europe's oldest continuously occupied royal palace), and the minaret-turned-belltower of the world's largest Gothic cathedral, where Christopher Columbus is buried. Alternatively, gaze at works by Golden Age painters like Velázquez and Murillo at the Fine Arts museum, contemplate contemporary art at CaixaForum, take in a flamenco show, or track down places or scenes from famous operas set in Seville, including Carmen, the Barber of Seville and the Marriage of Figaro. Located on the River Guadalquivir ('mighty river' in Arabic), the city sits in a fertile valley bursting with first-class culinary ingredients - juicy tomatoes, tangy olives, delectable Iberian ham, revived grape varieties - meaning that Seville offers outstanding gastronomy. Whether you prefer traditional tiled tapas bars (tapas was allegedly invented here), experimental, industrial-chic restaurants, food trucks, riverside gastro festivals or markets where owner-producers proffer their own local wine and olive oil, eating in Seville is a joyful voyage of discovery. New elements of this edition include insights into lesser-known areas, itineraries for Triana and La Macarena, a focus on experiences such as cooking classes and sherry tastings, plus an expanded section on shopping - all of which help make Bradt's compact Seville guidebook the indispensable companion for visitors.

Negotiating the End of the World


Behind the headlines, a struggle between two opposing philosophical visions has shaped the course of international efforts to save the planet from global warming. The liberal cosmopolitanism of the great Enlightenment philosopher Immanuel Kant has been up against the darker vision of an authoritarian global order of great power rivals developed by Carl Schmitt, 'Crown Jurist of the Third Reich'. Clive Hamilton shows how the influence of Schmitt's once-taboo ideas has recently spread around the world – in Trump's America, in Xi Jinping's China, and in Europe with the rise of right-wing populism. His book maps how the actions of these three great powers have defined the course of global climate negotiations. The Kantian vision, best represented by the European Union, has common sense on its side – a threat to everyone that can be solved by collective responses. In practice, however, UN agreements have triggered resistance from surging anti-globalist forces influenced by the Nazi jurist's ideas, a world defined by friends and enemies and where weaker states submit to powerful ones. As the Earth hurtles towards a hot and perilous future, which of these worldviews prevails, Kant's or Schmitt's, could determine humanity's fate.

The Grammar of Fantasy


From the father of modern Italian children's literature, a guide to fairytales and folk tales and their great advantages in teaching creative storytelling. A groundbreaking pedagogical work that is also a handbook for writers of all ages and kinds, The Grammar of Fantasy gives each of us a playful, practical path to finding our own voice through the power of storytelling. Full of ideas, glosses on fairytales, stories, and wide-ranging activities, including the fantastic binomial, this book changed how creative arts were taught in Italian schools. Gianni Rodari is widely regarded as the father of modern Italian children's literature, but he is also remembered for his visionary pedagogy, and it is these two fields he combines in this revolutionary essay collection. Translated into English by acclaimed children's historian Jack Zipes and illustrated for the first time ever by Matthew Forsythe, this edition of The Grammar of Fantasy is one to live with and return to for its humor, intelligence, and truly deep understanding of children. As translator and esteemed fairytale scholar Jack Zipes puts it, "Rodari grasped children's need to play with life's rules by using the grammar of their own imaginations. They must be encouraged to question, challenge, destroy, mock, eliminate, generate, and reproduce their own language and meanings through stories that will enable them to narrate their own lives." "I hope this small book," writes Rodari, "can be useful for all those people who believe it is necessary for the imagination to have a place in education; for all those who trust in the creativity of children; and for all those who know the liberating value of the word."

Ten Things I Wish I''d Known


Are you involved in church leadership, or considering the call?Looking back over my time in ministry, this is the guide I wish I could have read when I set out.

How to navigate the demands of ministry and family? What about responding to unfair criticism and owning our mistakes? How can we ever make time to pray? And is it still OK for me to play cricket?

In Tangier We Killed the Blue Parrot


This meticulously researched, fictionalized account of well-known American writers Paul and Jane Bowles peeks behind the curtain of their expatriate life in 1940s Morocco. In self-imposed exile and free from the moralistic constraints of the West, Paul and Jane wrote, fought, and loved feverishly, both each other and others of all sexes. The passion, envy, and exuberance that defined their unconventional marriage thrived in sharp contrast to a country straining for independence under the thumb of its colonial keepers. Told by Paul, Jane, and Belaquassim, Paul’s young Moroccan lover, In Tangier, We Killed the Blue Parrot is a study of contrasts—in the exotic, the erotic, the political, and the creative life.

Andrej Hlinka: Prejavy a články II. 1918 - 1938. Druhý zväzok 1927 - 1938


Druhý diel edície prameňov Andrej Hlinka - Prejavy a články pokrýva obdobie prvej Československej republiky 1918 – 1938 a vzhľadom na rozsah bol rozdelený do dvoch zväzkov. Aktuálne vychádza druhý zväzok za roky 1927 – 1938, ktorý prináša v plnom znení 604 dokumentov zahŕňajúcich všetky významné články A. Hlinku, jeho prejavy Poslaneckej snemovni NZ či na významných politických a spoločenských podujatiach. Osobitne cennú časť dokumentov tvoria doteraz zväčša neznáme rozhovory pre zahraničné periodiká. Zaujímavou stránkou Hlinkovej, a vôbec ľudáckej publicistiky boli zásahy štátnej cenzúry, ktoré sú v jednotlivých textoch vyznačené a čiastočne aj rekonštruované podľa archívnych podkladov. Ku každému dokumentu je pripojená krátka hodnotiaca charakteristika a vysvetľujúce poznámky. Dva prvorepublikové zväzky sú priebežne číslované, pričom v druhom zväzku sa nachádzajú spoločné registre a súpis prameňov a literatúry. Monumentálne trojzväzkové dielo kolektívu autorov pod vedením prof. Róberta Letza sa týmto zväzkom zavŕšilo a dáva tak možnosť obsiahnuť celú šírku verejného účinkovania neprehliadnuteľného účastníka spoločenských a politických pohybov a prispieť k hlbšiemu poznaniu dobových reálií.

Surplus to Requirements


The 'Required to Die Act' has changed everything. On the eve of her eightieth birthday, the Old'un receives the message every citizen dreads: her life is now officially surplus to requirements. But instead of accepting the State-issued lethal dose, she chooses to disappear. Armed with little more than memory, stubborn hope, and the stories that have shaped her life, she begins a dangerous journey north along the Wall towards the border of Free Scotland. Along the way she encounters hidden communities, unlikely companions, acts of brutality, and moments of extraordinary kindness. Part dystopian thriller, part pilgrimage, Surplus to Requirements is a story about resistance, compassion, ageing and faith, and about what remains when society decides some lives no longer matter. Rooted in northern landscapes, memory and spiritual imagination, it is at once a warning and a testament: to the stubborn resilience of ordinary people who refuse to surrender their humanity.
