Winner of the National Book Critics Circle Special Award "I have come to think that the true likeness of Flannery O'Connor will be painted by herself, a self-portrait in words, to be found in her letters . . . There she stands, a phoenix risen from her own words: calm, slow, funny, courteous, both modest and very sure of herself, intense, sharply penetrating, devout but never pietistic, downright, occasionally fierce, and honest in a way that restores honor to the word."--Sally Fitzgerald, from the Introduction Winner of the National Book Critics Circle Special Award "I have come to think that the true likeness of Flannery O'Connor will be painted by... |

Všechno, co se povznáší, se musí setkat
ISBN: 9788025708699 / Czeski / 2013 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Může Kristus vytetovaný na zádech obrátit svého nositele na pravou víru? Ani v druhé povídkové sbírce Flannery O’Connorové nechybí její oblíbená témata: víra či nevíra a důsledky z toho plynoucí, rodinné rozbroje, rasové postoje, mezilidská nepochopení a nedorozumění, otázky vykoupení či poznání světa – to vše autorka opět podává v dokonalém absurdním tvaru. Flannery O’Connorová sbírku dokončila těsně před smrtí v roce 1964 a jejího vydání se nedočkala.
Název úvodní povídky i celé sbírky pochází z citátu francouzského... Může Kristus vytetovaný na zádech obrátit svého nositele na pravou víru? Ani v druhé povídkové sbírce Flannery O’Connorové nechybí jej...

The Square Root of 2: A Dialogue Concerning a Number and a Sequence
ISBN: 9781441918994 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The square root of 2 is a fascinating number - if a little less famous than such mathematical stars as pi, the number e, the golden ratio, or the square root of -1. (Each of these has been honored by at least one recent book.) Here, in an imaginary dialogue between teacher and student, readers will learn why v2 is an important number in its own right, and how, in puzzling out its special qualities, mathematicians gained insights into the illusive nature of irrational numbers. Using no more than basic high school algebra and geometry, David Flannery manages to convey not just why v2 is...

New Taiwanese Cinema in Focus: Moving Within and Beyond the Frame
ISBN: 9780748682010 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the Taiwanese film industry, the dichotomy between 'art house' and commercially viable films is heavily emphasised. However, since the democratisation of the political landscape in Taiwan, Taiwanese cinema has become internationally fluid. As the case studies in this book demonstrate, film-makers such as Hou Hsiao-hsien, Edward Yang, Tsai Ming-liang and Ang Lee each engage with international audience expectations. New Taiwanese Cinema in Focus therefore presents the Taiwanese New Wave and Second Wave movements with an emphasis on intertextuality, citation and transcultural dialogue....
