The Artists Roadmap
A pocket-sized career guide for emerging artists, The Artist's Roadmap is an essential primer for anyone wishing to discover what underpins a professional practice within this field.
Being an artist is challenging. Not only are the skills difficult to master, but there is no single route to success: all artistic careers are different. Authored by the founders of Delphian Gallery – an artist-run nomadic gallery and arts platform – The Artist’s Roadmap charts the complex geography of the contemporary art world, revealing what goes on behind the exhibition display and in the curator’s office in a compassionately frank discussion of what professional practice means today and the commercial aspects of being an artist.
Rich in practical guidance, The Artist’s Roadmap positions early-career artists for those rare moments of opportunity that could define their career, whilst providing them with the tools and know-how to forge their own path to success. Grounded and well informed, this guide addresses everything from approaching galleries and understanding representation to the nuts and bolts of artistic business, such as tax, shipping and insurance. At a time where artists are increasingly forced to hide the realities of their practice behind tight-lipped press releases and marketable mystique, The Artist’s Roadmap is refreshingly honest and an essential primer for any aspiring artist.

Soon, she will forget where the page ends and her mind begins.
A Mannok
Az 1974-ben született német irodalomtörténész könyve dokumentumokra épülő, különleges családregény, Thomas Mann családjának élet- és kortörténete az 1920-as évek elejétől egészen a huszonegyedik század kezdetéig. Thomas Mann 1905-ben vette feleségül a dúsgazdag müncheni famíliából származó Katia Pringsheimet, és 1919-ig hat gyermeke - három fia és három lánya - született tőle.
Tilmann Lahme a legidősebb gyermekek, Erika és Klaus kamaszkorától követi nyomon a családtagok külön-külön is regénybe illően fordulatos, a német történelemmel szorosan összefonódó és sok szempontból tragikus sorsát. Kronologikus rendben, évről évre, a párhuzamos életrajzok módszerével halad.
A Mann-családban mindenki írt, ha mást nem, emlékezéseket, de mindenki az apa nyomasztó árnyékában. Publikált szövegeik mellett Lahme ismeretlen levelek, naplók és feljegyzések százait is áttanulmányozta, és bőségesen idéz belőlük. A tényeket és a dokumentumokat beszélteti, ő maga nem fűz hozzájuk értelmező, minősítő kommentárokat. Éppen ezek a tények oszlatnak el azonban olyan legendákat, amelyeket elsősorban a családtagok maguk híreszteltek el magukról, így többek közt a politikai tisztánlátás és következetesség illúzióját, valamint a családi harmónia ködét.
Dinoszaurusz-menhely 2.
Egyetlen hiba fenekestül felforgatta a dinoszauruszok sorsát.
Amikor fény derült arra, hogy a dinoszauruszok mégsem pusztultak ki teljesen, egy csapásra elvarázsolták az emberiséget. Egészen addig tartott a láz, amíg egy katasztrofális baleset a kihalás szélére nem sodorta a dinómániát... Kaidou, aki saját szemével látta az eseményeket, végre megnyílik és elmeséli mi történt, így az újonc Suma Suzume jobban rálát a tragédiára és munkatársa múltjára, mint valaha is hitte volna.
De persze a lánynak akad más dolga is. Amikor épp nem a sötét múlttal foglalkozik, jöhet a válságkezelés, egy piciny Troodon felnevelése vagy egy szépkorú T-rex születésnapi partija... a Dinolandben egyetlen nap sem unalmas!
A teljesen egyedi, nagy sikert aratott manga-sorozat megalkotásában a mangaka Itaru Kinoshita segítségére volt Dr. Shin-ichi Fujiwara paleontológus is, aki a dinoszauruszokkal kapcsolatos tudományos háttérre figyelt, így izgalmasan, de egyben tudományos alapossággal bemutatva láthatjuk a dinók és a kihívásokkal küzdő rezervátum hétköznapjait.
Better off Dead
Just how many deaths does it take to close a holiday park?
All Lacy wants is to escape to Paris and be with her older sister. But she needs to make some money first, so she takes a summer job at a caravan park in North Wales.
When one of the guests is brutally murdered, rumours start to swirl about the park being haunted. There are sightings of a mysterious figure walking along the clifftops at night and Lacy can’t shake off the feeling that she’s being watched. Could there be some truth to the stories? And can she discover who – or what – the killer is before she becomes the next victim?
Avicenna
Abú Alí al-Husajn ibn Síná (asi 970–1037), řečený Avicenna, je přelomovou postavou arabskojazyčného myšlení a vědy a díky latinským překladům, jež vznikly ve 12. století, směrodatně ovlivnil též latinskou křesťanskou filosofii. Jeho nauka o „svatém intelektu“, odborníky doposud opomíjená, propojuje teologii, kosmologii, metafyziku i psychologii a představuje proroka jako aktivní střed lidského světa, díky kterému se nahodilé historické společenství může náležitě včlenit do řádu veškerenstva. Avicennova nauka o proroctví je přesazením Platónova filosofa na trůnu do rámce islámu a vytyčuje půdorys, který prostřednictvím Mosese Maimonida a Alberta Velikého spoluurčoval samo pojetí úkolu a smyslu filosofie v prostředí všech tří velkých monoteismů.

With an absent wife and a daughter going off the rails, wealthy art collector and philanthropist Simon Strulovitch is in need of someone to talk to.

Mythica
Award-winning classicist and historian Emily Hauser takes readers on an epic journey to uncover the astonishing true story of the real women behind ancient Greece’s greatest legends, and the real heroes of those ancient epics, Homer's Iliadand Odyssey . . .
Contrary to perceptions built up over three millennia, ancient history is not all about men – and it's not only men's stories that deserve to be told.
In Mythica Emily Hauser tells, for the first time, the extraordinary stories of the real women behind some of the western world’s greatest legends. Following in their footsteps, digging into the history behind Homer’s epic poems, piecing together evidence from the original texts, recent astonishing archaeological finds and the latest DNA studies, she reveals who these women – queens, mothers, warriors, slaves – were, how they lived, and how history has (or has not – until now) remembered them.
A riveting new history of the Bronze Age Aegean and a journey through Homer’s epics charted entirely by women – from Helen of Troy, Briseis, Cassandra and Aphrodite to Circe, Athena, Hera, Calypso and Penelope – Mythica is a ground-breaking reassessment of the reality behind the often-mythologized women of Greece’s greatest epics, and of the ancient world itself as we learn ever more about it.
