Joy of Revolution and Related Texts


''It may seem absurd to talk about revolution. But all the alternatives assume the continuation of the present system, which is even more absurd.'' Best known for his meticulous translations of numerous works by Guy Debord and the Situationist International, Ken Knabb is also the author of numerous radical texts. The Joy of Revolution is widely considered his masterpiece. While there have been numerous histories of past revolutions and countless debates about the merits and drawbacks of different radical tactics, it would be difficult to name a single book that more clearly and concisely explores the problems and possibilities of a modern, situationist-type revolution. Beginning with a brief overview of the absurdity of the present society and the failures of various efforts to change it, it examines the pros and cons of a wide range of radical tactics, first in the context of ''normal'' or ''ordinary'' conditions, then in the very different context of radical situations - those rare breakthroughs where numbers of people start to call everything into question and real change becomes possible. The book then concludes with some speculations on how a global liberated society might work, and what it might be like to live in. For this new edition, Knabb has updated his book (originally published in 1997) and appended several of his more recent texts, including a series of articles on the Occupy movement, in which he was an enthusiastic participant.

Lore Olympus: Volume Ten


Hades and Persephone get a modern, romantic reimagining in Lore Olympus, a gorgeously illustrated, Eisner Award-winning comic-now including a never-before-seen bonus short story! "The Mortal Realm-it's dying." After years of yearning, the big day has finally arrived: Hades and Persephone are getting married! It's the ceremony of the century, and practically all the gods are invited to celebrate the happy couple. The wedding, full of love and joy, provides a much-needed respite for the pantheon . . . but the newlyweds have no time for a honeymoon. The king and queen of the Underworld begin unprecedented dives into the dream world to find the god that Kronos took hostage-and, hopefully, to get answers on defeating the furious titan once and for all. During their explorations, they begin to suspect that Persephone's powers over spring may have been altered. Their theory is proven correct with deadly consequences: When Persephone returns to the Mortal Realm, she ushers in not the regular change of seasons, but a never-ending winter. And while the gods worry about the total annihilation of the Mortal Realm, Apollo uses the chaos as cover for an attempt to kill Zeus. He claims his dying father's throne and decrees that the only way to save the Mortal Realm is if Persephone-and her power-belong to him. The others reject his outrageous demand, proposing instead that whoever can fix the failing seasons will be named interim ruler of Olympus. Hope now rests with the struggling goddess to find a way to stop the treacherous Apollo and save humankind-or else be separated from Hades forever. This edition of Smythe's original Eisner Award-winning webcomic Lore Olympus features a brand-new, exclusive short story from creator Rachel Smythe and brings the Greek pantheon into the modern age in a sharply perceptive and romantic graphic novel. This volume collects episodes 234-260 of the #1 WEBTOON comic Lore Olympus.

Enola Holmes meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer in this thrilling YA fantasy adventure from debut author J. A. Morgenstein, perfect for fans of Jennifer Lynn Barnes and Philip Pullman. It's 1909 and Rose Moriarty-teenage daughter of Sherlock Holmes' greatest enemy-has made a name for herself fighting monsters and solving crimes. But that was before Rose met the one mystery she couldn't solve: the disappearance of her headmistress. Now, her school has shut down, her classmates have scattered, and Rose is on her own. On the very day Rose receives word that an old friend is dying, the shadowy Count Christoph and his ward Clara show up at her door. Rose has already figured out why they're here (to hire her) and what's in their bag (an ancient orb with incredible powers), but questions remain: Can Rose convince these strangers to help save her friend's life? What are the grotesque, bug-shaped stalkers that plague their every step? And how can Rose pursue this adventure while avoiding a certain boy from her childhood? The only thing certain is that Rose is no longer alone, because danger forges strange alliances . . . . . . and Professor Moriarty wasn't the only famous villain to have a daughter. Unexpected friendships, supernatural mystery, high-stakes heists, and budding romance billow together in this thrilling fantasy adventure, which introduces a motley crew of daredevil heroines who hunt monsters . . . in all their forms.

Buddhist Environmental Ethics


Brings Tibetan Buddhist philosophy, contemplative practice, and contemporary environmental ethics together to present a novel way of approaching the pressing issues facing our more-than-human world. In Buddhist Environmental Ethics, Colin H. Simonds presents a compelling case for using a contemplative register to approach some of our most pressing issues surrounding climate change, ecological collapse, and the exploitation of nonhuman animals. Simonds develops an emerging theory of Buddhist ethics—moral phenomenology—by engaging it with the Tibetan framework of view, meditation, action and providing a practical means by which individuals can ethically develop through contemplative practice. He then applies this theory and practical framework to the ethical and material problems facing the more-than-human world to show how a Tibetan Buddhist response to these issues offers a cogent, adaptable way to address environmental problems. In doing so, Buddhist Environmental Ethics forwards the first book-length constructive argument for an eco-Buddhist ethic in over a decade, articulates the first environmental ethic based on Tibetan Buddhist sources, and offers a timely framework for how we can experience the more-than-human world anew through contemplative practice.

Cundoku


Mindenki ismer olyan irodalomkedvelőt, akinek olvasatlan könyvek is vannak a polcán. Elítélendő a könyvhalmozás? Ugyan, dehogy! Hiszen az a könyv is hozzátesz a műveltségünkhöz, érzékenységünkhöz és stílusunkhoz, amelyiket már elolvastuk, és az is, amelyiket még csak tervezzük elolvasni, de már ott van karnyújtásnyira tőlünk. „Végül is a könyvgyűjtés olyan, mintha azt mondanánk, hogy nem tudjuk nem szeretni azt, amit még nem ismerünk. Mi a baj ezzel?” Semmi, mondják a japánok, akiknek külön szavuk is van a könyvgyűjtésre: cundoku. Négy olasz könyvimádó egy közösen választott japán álnéven (Taiki Raito Pym) ugyan szociológiai és pszichológiai szempontok alapján elemzi, hogy min alapszik a gyűjtési vágy, de azt ők is tudják, hogy könyvet gyűjteni maga a gyönyörűség. Ne érezzen emiatt senki lelkiismeret-furdalást. Te sem, kedves olvasónk!

The Hidden Seasons


THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO THE HIDDEN CLUES AND SIGNS OF NATURE IN THE TURNING OF THE YEARThe perfect gift for dad this Father's Day!'A brilliant guide to the signs and wonders of the natural world . . . the author's alertness and expertise are impressive, and he makes a beguiling and inspiring guide . . . wonderful.' - DAILY MAIL'Gooley preaches attention to patterns in nature like a sommelier describing wine.' - NEW YORK TIMES'Another triumph from our unsurpassed expert on how to read the signs of nature. Indeed, his best book yet, which is saying something!' - John Lewis-Stempel, author of MEADOWLAND'A book to savour month by month as the seasons turn. Loved it!' - Lara Maiklem, author of MUDLARKING 'The Sherlock Holmes of Nature' - BBC Radio------When we know what to look for and what it means, seasonal moments that were once hidden shine brightly. In The Hidden Seasons, Tristan Gooley shows us how to read the clues that the sun, moon, stars, plants, fungi, animals, water and weather give us - but that we continually miss, because we don't know how and where to look. Autumn is a time for reading leaves, deciphering scents and investigating fungi. Spring is the time of wildflower signs, unique cloud shapes and curious animal behaviour. Summer is a time of coastal clues, astronomical extremes and secret grass patterns. And in winter, we learn to read snow, deepen our star knowledge and use rare methods to find clues in overlooked places, including indoors. As with Tristan Gooley's bestsellers The Walker's Guide, How to Read Water and How to Read a Tree, The Hidden Seasons inspires us to explore these signs for ourselves, giving us many rich insights into our turning year. Soon we will be able to anticipate and celebrate daily changes that few notice, however surprising they may be. And the seasons will never look, sound or smell the same again.
