For nearly three quarters of a century, they influenced presidents, policies, and legal rulings, during careers that tracked closely with some of the most significant and...

Soon after Liddy's journey began.
I met Liddy and heard just a small part of the story twenty years ago and was intrigued by the instinct of one so young. Could I have understood the consequences of just one incident at seventeen? I never forgot the story but was too... This is a memoir of a remarkable woman. Born in 1915, a Jewess in Berlin, she lived a comfortable life until a few days before her eighteenth birthday...

Josef Hiršal napsal: atribut nonsens není nic definitivního, text se nonsensem stává, nebo jím i být přestává. Souhlasíme s ním a nevážíme si definic nonsensu výčtem (prášilovské zkazky, parodie, palindromy, hříčky, dětské verše, rozpočitadla, výtvory umělého jazyka, novotvary, permutace, fonetická lyrika, gramatické hry). Definice výčtem totiž nemíří k jádru pudla, nýbrž směrem skoro opačným; jádrem nonsensového pudla je totiž jistý typ prožitku na straně konzumenta (jímž bývá také autor)....

The old adage says you can t step in the same river twice, and Ellen Wohl would agree natural and synthetic change are so rapid on the world s great waterways that rivers are transforming and disappearing right before our eyes. A World of Rivers explores the confluence of human and environmental change on ten of the great rivers of the world....

Love Among the Ruins: The Erotics of Democracy in Classical Athens
ISBN: 9780691095226 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Classical Athenian literature often speaks of democratic politics in sexual terms. Citizens are urged to become lovers of the polis, and politicians claim to be lovers of the people. Victoria Wohl argues that this was no dead metaphor. Exploring the intersection between eros and politics in democratic Athens, Wohl traces the private desires aroused by public ideology and the political consequences of citizens' most intimate longings. Love among the Ruins analyzes the civic fantasies that lay beneath (but not necessarily parallel to) Athens's political ideology. It shows how desire...
