Bratrstvo neohrožených: Velitel


Říkali jim Easy Company, ale jejich úkoly nebyly nikdy lehké Válečné vzpomínky majora Dicka Winterse Zvěčněni jako Bratrstvo neohrožených podávali při osvobozování Evropy bezprecedentní důkazy statečnosti tváří v tvář nepříteli. Jejich velitelem byl Dick Winters, který byl pro své muže „nejlepší bojový velitel druhé světové války“. Toto je jeho příběh – poprvé vyprávěný jeho vlastními slovy. V Den D seskočil Winters z letadla do Francie, aby převzal velení nad rotou E poté, co byl její původní velitel zabit. Jednotku vedl bitvou v Ardenách až do Německa. Společně osvobodili koncentrační tábor Kaufering a dobyli Orlí hnízdo v Berchtesgadenu. Během tohoto tažení byl každý člen jednotky zraněn. Winters se po krátké službě během korejské války stal úspěšným podnikatelem. Proslavil se díky knize Stephena Ambroseho Bratrstvo neohrožených a následnému oceněnému miniseriálu od HBO. Bratrstvo neohrožených: Velitel jsou Wintersovy paměti a zahrnují také dosud nevyřčené příběhy jeho spolubojovníků. Winters jako jediný zůstal u roty E od jejího vstupu do boje až do konce války a jako nositel Kříže za vynikající službu mohl pouze on sepsat tento dojemný hold lidskému duchu.

Henri Cartier-Bresson


Described as ‘magnificent’ by the Good Book Guide, this lavishly illustrated monograph traces Cartier-Bresson’s development as a photographer, activist, journalist and artist.This is an indispensable work for lovers of photography and admirers of Henri Cartier-Bresson (1908–2004), whose influence continues to endure so powerfully today. In addition to some of his best-known photographs, here are many seldom seen or unpublished images, and some rarities in colour as well as black and white. His work embraced art, politics, revolution and war. But more powerful than any of these overarching themes was his evident concern for the human individual at every social level. Cartier-Bresson’s observations of the effects of poverty and revolution around the world led directly to his pioneering photojournalism, and his co-founding of Magnum Photos. He also became renowned for his penetrating portraits of the most prominent figures of his time: Cartier-Bresson’s biographer Pierre Assouline called him ‘the eye of the century’.

Reds


Reds tells the global history of communism, going beyond the turmoil of the 20th century, and exploring communist ideas, movements, and regimes. It starts in antiquity, not in 1917. It centres not just on the obvious leaders and thinkers but asks how the idealism of millions of working-class activists could lead to their acquiescence in mass murder, repression and social atomisation. A fact whose legacy - unfortunately - is alive and kicking in both Russia and China today. Paul Mason's startling new book will argue that the desire to live without hierarchy and property is an impulse deeply rooted in our human nature. Reds traces the history of communist ideas through revolts in the ancient and medieval worlds, and chronicles the rise of 19th century anti-capitalist movements. Using first hand testimonies of both the perpetrators and the victims, Mason gives a new and terrifying account of how the 20th century experiment in communism turned into a totalitarian nightmare. But, he argues, the story is not over. Western democracies are stagnant and lacking self-belief. Looming climate chaos demands radical economic answers. Millions of people in the global south see China's offer of authoritarian, state-led development model as a viable alternative. And among the Western left, new forms of techno-egalitarianism vie with right-wing libertarianism in the battle over the digital future.Reds will be a major analysis as we head into a dangerous new world order where China and Russia threaten major change to the world's democracies.

The Arts of Ancient South Arabia


A superb collection of spectacular and varied pre-Islamic Arabian artefacts held by The al-Sabah Collection, Kuwait, many published here for the first time.Between the third millennium BCE and the third century CE the Arabian Peninsula – present-day Saudi Arabia, Oman, Yemen, United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Kuwait, as well as the Bahrain archipelago – lay at the centre of maritime trading routes between the Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean. Yet its fascinating pre-Islamic history has only recently begun to be communicated. A series of remarkable archaeological excavations over the past forty years have expanded the picture of the region beyond the simple nomadic desert pastoralism reported by scholars of early Islamic Arab sources. These developments in archaeology have enabled a complete reassessment of the wider history of ancient Arabia – now further illuminated by the spectacular and varied artefacts held by The al-Sabah Collection, Kuwait.This volume reveals superb examples of luxury metalware in bronze, silver and gold, created for a sophisticated elite familiar with trends in both the Greco-Roman world and eastern traditions. It also includes an impressive and diverse collection of funerary statues, stelae and carvings, many votive offerings to local deities, spectacular large loricate bronze statues from Yemen, and a range of intriguing objects that furnished homes and temples. The collection extends to a variety of gold jewellery, which has been examined and catalogued by ancient jewellery specialist Leila Ali Aquil. The inscriptions on these objects, freshly translated and annotated by epigraphist and pre-Islamic scholar Christian Robin, unlock many previously unknown aspects of South Arabian life and beliefs.This monumental volume is in two parts. Part 1 introduces the South Arabian region, its history, cultures, languages and architecture, providing a valuable and comprehensive overview and context. Part 2, by leading South Arabian archaeologist Sabina Antonini, comprises the catalogue of the collection itself, divided by object type.For art lovers, historians and philologists, this is a collection of unmatched quality and range from a region long shrouded in mystery, now revealed as a nexus of cultural antiquity.
