Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Mało kto wie, że Vclav Havel był nie tylko prezydentem, dramaturgiem i filozofem, ale także... bajkopisarzem! Bohaterami swoich bajek uczynił skrzeciuchy. Kim są skrzeciuchy? To bardzo niezwykłe istoty. Knują, majstrują, kombinują, przesuwają, a czasem po prostu niszczą. Kiedy mówią, warto zatkać sobie uszy, a gdy pukają do naszych drzwi, lepiej im nie otwierać, bo skrzeciuch to taki stworek, który potrafi wślizgnąć się wszędzie, a kiedy już się gdzieś wślizgnie - oj, biada nam!W swoich bajkach, żartobliwych i uniwersalnych, Vclav Havel krytykuje ludzkie przywary,...

The Beggar's Opera
ISBN: 9780801438332 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) The Czech President Vaclav Havel, a force on behalf of international human rights and his country's most celebrated dissident, first gained prominence as a playwright. During the period when Havel was blacklisted by the Czechoslovakian government for his political activism, productions of his work in and around Prague were regarded as subversive acts. The Beggar's Opera is a free-wheeling, highly politicized adaptation of John Gay's well-known eighteenth-century work of the same name. The play, reminiscent of Havel's earlier Garden Party and The Memorandum, is up to his best satirical...
