Kulturní (dis)kontinuity v českém pohraničí


Východočeské pohraničí bývá často líčeno jako kraj „přerušené paměti“ a ztracených kořenů. Tato kolektivní monografie však nabízí jiný pohled. Představuje Krkonoše, Podkrkonoší, Broumovsko i další oblasti jako dynamický prostor, kde se minulost a přítomnost neustále prolínají – jako místo setkávání, výměny i napětí. Zásadním zlomem vývoje byla poválečná depopulace spojená s vysídlením německého obyvatelstva a následným dosídlováním. Znamenal tento proces skutečně přerušení kulturní kontinuity? Autoři knihy ukazují, že odpověď není jednoznačná. I v prostředí hlubokých demografických změn mohou kulturní vzorce přetrvávat, proměňovat se nebo znovu vznikat. Prostřednictvím historických, antropologických i sociologických přístupů publikace sleduje vztah mezi populačními proměnami a kulturním přenosem. Zaměřuje se na paměť krajiny, každodenní život obyvatel, roli institucí i způsoby, jimiž různé skupiny „čtou“ minulost a dávají jí nový význam. Kniha tak překonává zjednodušující obraz pohraničí jako „vykořeněného“ prostoru a ukazuje jej jako mnohovrstevnatý region, v němž se historická zkušenost nestírá, ale znovu interpretuje – a stává se součástí současných identit.

From Miniskirt to Hijab


Named a 2020 Chicago Writers Association Book of the Year AwardFinalist for the 2021 Eric Hoffer AwardFinalist for the 2021 Feathered Quill AwardLonglisted for the 2020 Clara Johnson AwardJacqueline Saper, named after Jacqueline Kennedy, was born in Tehran to Iranian and British parents. At eighteen she witnessed the civil unrest of the 1979 Iranian Revolution and continued to live in the Islamic Republic during its most volatile times, including the Iran–Iraq War. In a deeply intimate and personal story, Saper recounts her privileged childhood in prerevolutionary Iran and how she gradually became aware of the paradoxes in her life and community, primarily the disparate religions and cultures. In 1979, under the Ayatollah regime, Iran became increasingly unfamiliar and hostile to Saper. Seemingly overnight she went from a carefree life of wearing miniskirts and attending high school to listening to fanatic diatribes, being forced to wear the hijab, and hiding in the basement as Iraqi bombs fell over the city. After witnessing her six-year-old daughter's indoctrination into radical Islamic politics at school, she fled to the United States in 1987 with her husband and children. At the heart of Saper's story, From Miniskirt to Hijab: A Girl in Revolutionary Iran, is a harrowing and instructive tale of how extremist ideologies seized a Westernized, affluent country and transformed it into a fundamentalist Islamic society.

The Triumph of Christianity Redescribed


In The Triumph of Christianity Redescribed, Éric Rebillard argues that the appearance of Christian signs and practices in the Roman Empire has long been misunderstood. Rather than marking a rapid wave of conversions or the triumph of belief, the spread of Christian signs reflected a more complex and fluid religious landscape. Rebillard offers a striking new account of how Christianity took hold, not through adherence to doctrine or formal membership in a church, but through a gradual diffusion of signs and practices. Drawing on cognitive science, anthropology, and theories of religious mobility, he shows how individuals across the ancient Mediterranean experimented with religious symbols: adopting some, abandoning others, and often blending them without concern for consistency. Rebillard maps out a world where religious affiliation was provisional, situational, and rarely exclusive. The Triumph of Christianity Redescribed challenges the idea that Christianity's rise was a straightforward story of growth, mission, or hegemony. By replacing a triumphalist narrative with one attuned to ambiguity, resilience, and the everyday realities of religious life in late antiquity, Rebillard offers scholars and general readers alike a richer, more accurate account of how Christianity spread—and what that spread actually meant.

Ealing: A Potted History


For much of its history Ealing was a rural village in Middlesex, outside London. Improved communications encouraged first its development as a market garden for the capital and later as an attractive suburb in West London, nicknamed ‘Queen of the Suburbs’. In this book, local historians Dr Jonathan Oates and Paul Howard Lang look back over the centuries to uncover the fascinating history of the district. The new public buildings, churches and chapels played an important role alongside large-scale housing developments from the nineteenth century onwards. Leisure was important in Ealing too. The inhabitants of Ealing included many famous names recorded by blue plaques today but all benefitted from the growth of shopping centres in the area. Not only was it well-known for its open spaces but is also the home of film studios. The stories of Ealing’s places and people bring the history to life, together with illustrations to show where reminders of the area’s past can still be found.Illustrated throughout, this accessible historical portrait of the transformation that Ealing has undergone through the ages will be of great interest to residents, visitors and all those with links to the district.

Waylon University 4: To ti slibuju


Dillon McQueen: Kdy tě zase uvidím? Serena Jensenová: Ehm, kdo jsi? Na Waylonu se traduje jistá legenda: první dívka, kterou políbíš v prvním ročníku u táboráku, je ta, na kterou nikdy nezapomeneš. Zadře se ti pod kůži a probudí v tobě takovou vášeň, že bys pro ni udělal cokoli na světě. Možná ji dokonce požádáš o ruku. Ale… důležité je správné načasování. Ten polibek se může příšerně zvrtnout. Ta dívka může utéct. A Serena opravdu utekla. Dillon je hvězdný quarterback Waylonu, který potřebuje dostudovat a dostat se do NFL. Co ale rozhodně nepotřebuje, je potkat dívku, kterou políbil u táboráku v prvním ročníku. Copak nestačí, že ho pronásleduje ve snech? Osud se mu vysměje do očí, když na ni nečekaně narazí v obchodě. Obklopen svým dívčím harémem si ležérně nahází do košíku všechna balení sušenek Oreo, které ona miluje. Ona mu to oplatí a vykoupí poslední balení jeho oblíbeného piva. Ta legenda je určitě prokletím. Ona není jeho typ, a navíc ho určitě nenávidí. Ba co hůř – jak je možné, že si na něj nevzpomíná, když mu před třemi lety vypálila do srdce cejch? Proč o ni přes to všechno pořád usiluje? Získá nový hvězdný quarterback vysněnou dívku, nebo udělá největší chybu svého života?
