Simpsonovi: Komiksové safari
Springfieldu hrozí potopa, a zatímco Flanders staví archu, Líza svolá partu k opravě vetché hráze; ale proč dělá Homer přesčasy jako blázen? A proč zakládá pštrosí farmu, když před prací kolem domu obvykle strká hlavu do písku? Ani Bart se, jak známo, na zahradě nepředře, ale jakmile začne dojit kačky z travní sekačky, brzy padne kosa na kámen. Sekáč býval kdysi i děda Simpson, ale dnes by jeho historky umořily vola, natož Homera. Když však Abe najde vděčné posluchače a adoptivní rodinu u Flandersů, má jeho pravý syn moře starostí s tím, jak ho získat zpět. Moře a dávné křivdy a hoře hrají hlavní roli i v napínavé bitvě dvou starých mořských vlků, kteří si to ovšem nerozdají šavlemi, nýbrž vařečkami. Vařit se bude i v řízném příběhu plném hořkosti a nakvašenosti, když Homer vypění poté, co se jeho svět otřese v základech: Duff již nechutná jako dřív! Je jen na Homerovi, aby vyčistil ten Augiášův chlív.
Roman Surrey
In AD 43, the area of south-east England now known as Surrey became part of the Roman Empire. The succeeding 400 years saw the development of settlements, roads, industry and a new administrative structure, with the foundation of London providing anew and lasting focus for the people of Surrey. In this fully revised and updated second edition of Roman Surrey, Dr David Bird combines both historical and the very latest archaeological evidence with topographical studies to build a vivid picture of life at the time, from villas and coinage to the interrelation of the people who lived there, and their beliefs and customs. The changing face of Surrey’s landscape is chartered, alongside an exploration of the theories relating to the development and eventual decline of Roman Surrey.
Rosslyn Chapel Revealed
‘Like Rosslyn itself, this book is rather delicious and I would urge anyone with an interest in the Scottish religious sensibility to read it.’ - Gerard CarruthersRosslyn Chapel Revealed offers the reader an increased understanding and respect for one of Europe’s finest pre-Reformation buildings. Rosslyn Chapel, with its foundations in the world of nature, still points bravely to the heavens. That there is mystery at Rosslyn Chapel, there can be no doubt. But it is not the mystery of the esoteric Gnostic variety, available only to the initiated few. Instead, it is knowledge, accessible to all, of the dynamic intertwining of the created world with the impulse towards self-fulfilment. Rosslyn Chapel Revealed shows that the chapel is first and foremost a Christian building, constructed in the traditions of the pre-Reformation Church for the celebration in word, gesture and music of the Divine Office and of the ultimate sacrifice Jesus Christ suffered on his cross for the salvation of the human race. The stunning beauty of the chapel, its unexpected delicacy and the uninhibited humour of its stone carvings, which have drawn visitors in such avid numbers from all over the world, are a tribute to the honesty and validity of the religious experience to be found within its ancient walls, in a breathtaking setting of valley and river that is older than time. ‘This lovely book is a counter to some of the silliness of recent years … an excellent and comprehensive introduction and a super memoir for anyone who has visited.’ - Maria Western, Inspires

Dopisy z Bihoru
Mladý maďarský kaplan přichází koncem 19. století na faru v Nové Huti. Přichází na jaře z kvetoucí nížiny a stoupaje s vozem po nekonečné klikaté cestě nachází v kopcích krajinu dosud sevřenou sněhem, bičovanou ledovými větry. Ocitne se mezi uctivě odtažitými, roztomile primitivními Slováky, kterým nerozumí jediného slova: nepraktický intelektuál z města si přišel odbýt své vyhnanství, v němž je k zoufalství stejně blízko jako k žertu s některou z mála spřízněných duší.
Maďarský román v dopisech z roku 1897 v moderním překladu Adély Gálové je nejstarším souvislým vyprávěním o slovenské krajině Nové Huti (?inteu) v dnešním rumunském Bihoru a o jejích obyvatelích – Slovácích, Maďarech, Židech a dalších. Adéla Gálová za překlad získala tvůrčí ocenění Obce překladatelů za rok 2020.

Egon Schiele and Oskar Kokoschka: Rivals and Networkers
The legendary rivalry between two exceptional artists of Austrian Modernism, Oskar Kokoschka and Egon Schiele, a rivalry that sparked artistic masterpieces.
This lavishly illustrated publication looks at the relationship of the two towering figures of Austrian Modernism, Oskar Kokoschka and Egon Schiele. They were rivals and masterful networkers, and their race for success and recognition opens up a previously untold chapter of modern art.
Oskar Kokoschka and Egon Schiele were rising stars in early twentieth-century Vienna, and their early work laid the foundations for Austrian Expressionism. Their rivalry is as exceptional as their networks and artworks. When Egon Schiele died in 1918 at just twenty-eight years old, his attempt at reconciliation with Kokoschka having failed, the elder artist still had six decades ahead of him, during which he would be celebrated internationally as a major Austrian figure. But he never escaped Schiele's shadow--quite the contrary. With historical documents and art reproductions, this publication shows in detail the feud that these two artists fought.
