Akane-banashi, Vol. 16
Akane takes on the world of rakugo to avenge her father!Shinta Arakawa wants nothing more than to pass his shin’uchi exam—the test that would make him a top-rank headliner and master storyteller in the traditional Japanese art of rakugo. Akane Osaki, his daughter and biggest fan, spies on him while he practices and learns his routines for herself. When rakugo master Issho Arakawa expels everyone after the exam with no explanation, a fire is lit inside Akane. From that day forth, she has had one goal—to avenge her father and prove his art was worthy of the title of shin’uchi. As youngsters, Issho and Shiguma are trapped in poverty, doing odd jobs, getting in fights, and behaving utterly unlike the professional rakugoka they will one day become. When the previous Shiguma, Kiroku Kashiwaya, charms them with his art, they join his rakugo school, and he influences them to work hard and better themselves. But one day, everything changes… In recounting this story to Akane, Urara reveals the secret behind the birth of the Arakawa School. Will it change Akane’s perception on becoming Issho’s apprentice? This volume also includes the one-shot “Tatarashido,” a story about stand-up comedy from fun-loving high schoolers!

Különleges barátok
Boti ötéves, imád hintázni, focizni, és van egy vagány hátizsákja, tele különleges apróságokkal. Mert habár Boti éppen olyan, mint a többi kisfiú, két varázslatos segítőre van szüksége: Inzulinmanóra és Szenzimanóra.
Ez a mese játékosan mutatja be, milyen az élet az egyes típusú cukorbetegséggel. Tévhiteket oszlat el, kapaszkodót nyújt, és él a gyermekek fogékony és nyitott természetével: úgy mutat be kisebb különbözőségeket, hogy azok belesimulnak a mindennapi élet szövetébe. Tartsatok Botival, barátaival és a manókkal Télessy Petra legújabb meséjében!
„Szívügyem, hogy az emberek annak láthassák a diabéteszt, aminek én: apró sajátosságnak, odafigyelést igénylő életvitelnek. Az érintettek sokkal többek, mint egy pumpa, egy pen, egy cukormérő. Petra rengeteget tett már azért, hogy a különleges gyerekeket tisztábban lássuk, hálás vagyok neki, hogy ezúttal a cukorbetegséggel foglalkozik.”
Ling-Balogh Erna, kiadóvezető, az Amikor beüt a cukor című regény szerzője
„Egy történet Botiról és egy barátságról, ami sok diabéteszes gyereknek hiányzik. Ez a könyv segít, hogy a diabéteszes kicsik ne érezzék magukat egyedül. Boti történetén keresztül egy olyan világ tárul eléjük, amit ők is megélnek nap mint nap. Mert Boti nem csak egy mesehős. Ő egy barát, aki pontosan tudja, milyen érzés odafigyelni, néha elfáradni. És éppen ezért tud erőt adni: mert megmutatja, hogy ezek az érzések természetesek – és nem kell velük egyedül megküzdeni.
Ez a könyv ugyanakkor azoknak is szól, akik nem diabéteszesek. Segít közelebb kerülni egymáshoz, megérteni a különbségeket, és elfogadni, hogy mindenki egy kicsit másképp működik.”

Saltwater
For fans of Michelle Paver and Sarah Waters, the second in a quartet of exquisitely haunting ghost stories set in the wilds of Scotland. The Isle of Stroma, 1896. Tom Torrance has been sent to oversee the completion of a new lighthouse, which will guide ships through one of the most dangerous stretches of water in the United Kingdom. The construction so far has been plagued by difficulties, giving rise to superstitious whisperings amongst the men, but Tom is a man of sense and science. He will not be cowed by stories of hauntings and bad omens. Yet Tom is unprepared for the conditions on the island: the isolation and delirium of the endless summer nights. He soon learns that the real dangers on the island have nothing to do with the wild waves. There are some problems that science cannot answer, and some threats so ancient and strange, that nothing can keep them at bay.

Divide and Rule
Globally famous and yet universally misunderstood – these are the complex and utterly engrossing stories of Britain's royal women behind the public façade. Saints or sinners? Perfect princesses or difficult duchesses? Monarchy’s saviours or its destroyers? They rank among the world’s most famous women – and the most misunderstood. Throughout history, royal women have been sanitised and sanctified by supporters, distorted and demonised by critics, pitted against each other, and misrepresented by the media. In this extraordinary portrait, journalist Catherine Mayer examines the lives of the central players, and the echoes and parallels that have run throughout history. The stories of Anne Boleyn, Elizabeth I, Victoria, Elizabeth II, Diana, Camilla, Kate and Meghan uncovered by Catherine Mayer are far more fascinating, poignant, surprising and enraging than any of the myths. Divide and Rule reveals these extraordinary women in all their complexity, charting their achievements, quirks, kindnesses, cruelties and profound influence. Drawing on key sources, many of whom have never spoken publicly before, this book also demonstrates the ways in which history repeats itself – to the detriment not only of royal women but all of us.

Menšia a väčšia legenda osvätom Gerardovi biskupovi
Postava svätého Gerarda, jedného z najvýznamnejších predstaviteľov uhorskej cirkvi v 11. storočí, púta pozornosť z viacerých perspektív. Gerard je jedným z mála vzdelancov pôsobiacich v raných stredoeurópskych kresťanských kráľovstvách a kniežatstvách, ktorých dielo sa čiastočne zachovalo.
Prostredníctvom vzácneho teologicko-filozofického spisu, úvah či „rozjímania“svätého Gerarda (Deliberatio Gerardi) – zachovaného v jedinom stredovekom rukopise – máme možnosť nahliadnuť do autentických myšlienok, úvah a biblických interpretácií prvého čanádskeho biskupa.
Idealizovaný obraz o osobnosti svätého Gerarda možno zároveň nájsť v legendách o svätom Gerardovi. Obe legendy sú unikátnym svedectvom o dobe poslednej veľkej konfrontácie pohanskej tradície a nastupujúceho kresťanstva v Uhorskom kráľovstve. Legendy o svätom Gerardovi však možno považovať a jza pramene, ktoré približujú okolnosti a pozadie vzniku a postupného šírenia Gerardovho kultu. Dve legendy, pravdepodobne z 12. a 14. storočia, sú súčasne dokladom genézy hagiografického žánru v Uhorsku a poodhaľujú aj zámery a motívy samotných autorov legiend.
Nová latinsko-slovenská edícia, obsahujúca aj sprievodné štúdie o osobnosti a dobe svätého Gerarda, prináša prvý slovenský preklad oboch legiend o svätom Gerardovi.
