The Muqaddimah
Volume one of the classic Islamic history of the world, now available to a new generation of readers in a fully unabridged editionWritten by the great fourteenth-century Arab scholar Ibn Khaldun, The Muqaddimah, or “Introduction,” is the earliest critical study of history. Though intended as the preface and first book of a world history, it is a wholly self-contained work, one that laid the foundations for fields of knowledge ranging from the philosophy of history to sociology and ethnography and has influenced writers such as Frank Herbert, Bruce Chatwin, and Naguib Mahfouz. A three-volume English translation by the eminent Islamicist Franz Rosenthal was first published in 1958 as part of the Bollingen Series, garnering immediate international acclaim. A one-volume abridged version followed in 1969. Now the complete unabridged edition of Rosenthal’s masterful translation is available again in three beautiful volumes, reintroducing this monumental study of history to twenty-first century audiences.

Vesmír není dominatrix
Poezie mikulovsko-brněnské básnířky Eli Hondl (nar. 1995) je světem protikladů. Její obraznost dokáže být lyrická a odkouzleně křehká, ale i naštvaně kritická a syrová. Na jedné straně tu „ze dna vraků prorůstají jako choroše / tlamy bílých běluh / písně tumorů samoty“, abychom se jen o chvíli později stali svědky mlčení i výkřiků, jež mají kořeny v hněvu stejně jako v sexu. Jednotlivými básněmi ve sbírce se pak jako jednotící linka táhne tělesnost; ta reflektuje jak tělo vlastní, tak i tělo společenské. A nakonec je tak do dvojí role postaven i jazyk samotný — prostředek, jak zúčtovat sama se sebou: „ideologický jazyk polykej pomalu / vyklovaná rána hnisá božskou / ale třetí oko máš příliš jasné“.
William Blake as Natural Philosopher, 1788-1795
William Blake as Natural Philosopher, 1788-1795 takes seriously William Blake’s wish to be read as a natural philosopher, particularly in his early illuminated works, and reveals the way that poetry and visual art were for Blake an imaginative way of philosophizing. Blake’s poetry and designs reveal a consistent preoccupation with eighteenth-century natural philosophical debates concerning the properties of the physical world, the nature of the soul, and God’s relationship to the material universe. This book traces the history of these debates and examines images and ideas in Blake’s illuminated books that mark the development of the monist pantheism, which contends that every material thing is in its essence God, to the idealism of his later period, which casts the natural world as degenerate and illusory. The book argues that Blake’s philosophical thought was not as monolithic as has been previously characterized, and that pantheism is important to understanding his early works because it entails an ethics that respects the interconnected divinity of all material objects – not just humans – which in turn spurns hierarchical power structures.

Wittgenstein, Human Beings and Conversation
This book brings together David Cockburn’s best work on Wittgensteinian themes relating to ‘mind’ and ‘language’. While none of these papers is well described as ‘exegetical’, most are discussions of Wittgenstein, and all are discussions of themes central to his later work and strongly influenced by it. The papers can be roughly divided between ‘the philosophy of mind’ and ‘the philosophy of language’. They are, however, united by the idea that this standard classification of topics stands in the way of clear thinking about core issues, and, closely connected with that, united by the idea that the notion of a human being must be central to any philosophical treatment of them. Cockburn’s approach is marked by the detailed attention given to the human bodily form, and his approach to language by the central place given to the idea of conversation. The discussions are enriched by incorporating some consideration of our relation to non-human creatures. The papers are linked by an insistence on the inescapably ethical dimension of any adequate discussion of these issues. While the debt to Wittgenstein is enormous, a number of the papers involve what may be significant criticisms of him.

Cat-Life Balance 1
In this office romance manga with a feline twist, a people-pleaser flirting with burnout discovers his antisocial coworker's secret: She only smiles when she's playing with stray cats! Now he's got a choice: Keep up the facade and keep saying "yes" to every extra task and happy hour, or risk his perfect work image to sneak off for some simple, frisky fun? Fans of Sweat & Soap and Smoking Behind the Supermarket With You will love this new series from the creator of Cells at Work! Lady. Everyone at work loves Mamoru, because Mamoru never says no. Replacing lightbulbs, carrying boxes, taking over an impossible client from a retiring colleague… He'll do it all, and it's earned him the nickname "Prince of the Office." This glittering extrovert's opposite at work is Kurone, a quiet woman in another department who soaks up her boss's senseless mood swings with a blank stoicism. After one particularly long day, Mamoru is thrilled to be walking home alone, sipping a beer (because all his colleagues went drinking and left him to work overtime), when he encounters something strange: The usually glum Kurone is in the park, gleefully playing with stray cats. This secret seems silly, but it brings Kurone joy. It's the start of an unlikely relationship that will lead Mamoru to start reflecting on his life and who he really wants to share it with. Is work really all there is, or can he strike a balance with the help of these fluffy new friends--and a human who might become something more?

Bít o slam
Jeden z nejstarších žijících českých slamerů se vrací tam, kde vždy byl nejdoma: na scénu, na stránku, do slova. Člobrdan, vlastním jménem Jan Jícha, přináší sbírku, která je provokací, diagnózou i vyznáním lásky k jazyku zároveň. S břitkým humorem a ostrostí, jíž se nelze vyhnout, rozpitvává svět, v němž diktaturu pojebariátu nevystřídal řád ani rozum, nýbrž kapitán Korporán, botoxy a asociální sítě. Jícha je básník, který nesedí tiše. Stojí na jevišti a ptá se nahlas, zda má vůbec smysl bít o slam, když prostor kolem nás hlučí prázdnotou. Sbírka BÍT O SLAM je plná básní (které se čtou jako monology a hrají se jako představení), prokládaných relaxativními pauzami, jež jsou čímkoli, jen ne klidné. Od třídních schůzek přes evropské parlamentace až po zhasínající duše – Jícha nezůstává nic dlužen ani tématu, ani čtenáři, ani sobě. Tenhle muž psal, ještě než to bylo trendy, a píše dál, i když trendy dávno odešly jinam. Přijměte pozvání do světa, kde slovo ještě něco znamená – i když se o to musíte pořádně poprat.
Podpalubí
SEDMADVACET LET TICHA A CHLAPEC, KTERÝ BEZE STOPY ZMIZEL…
Ve výkopu leží ostatky zavražděného jedenáctiletého chlapce zabalené do černého pytle. Nadporučík písecké kriminálky Bohumil „Choroš“ Charvát a jeho spolupracovník, beznohý ukrajinský uprchlík Lev Bohdanovyč Koval, vědí, že najít vraha po více než čtvrtstoletí nebude snadné. Zvlášť když na místě, kde pachatel tělo pohřbil, od té doby nezůstal kámen na kameni.
Na přelomu tisíciletí to v místním hudebním klubu Paluba a přilehlém sportovním areálu Spartaku pulzovalo životem. Stovky lidí přicházely a odcházely, aniž by po sobě zanechaly stopu. Choroš se Lvem se musí vrátit zpět do minulosti a krok za krokem vypátrat, kdo z nich mohl mít důvod zabíje
t. Každá další otázka víří bahno a každá odpověď má v sobě kus špíny. Stojí za zločinem hlídač, který po hochově zmizení utekl do Německa? Nebo snad trenér s nepřiznanou zálibou v mladých chlapcích? Pokud Choroš se Lvem neodhalí pachatele včas, pravda se možná ztratí znovu. A už navždy…
