Robert Frost Knihy

Výbor z díla českému čtenáři dosud málo známého amerického básníka, jenž se stal na rodném kontinentu klasikem již za svého života (1874–1963). Zařazením se R. Frost formálně nejvíce blížil modernistům, ačkoli zpracovával výhradně přírodní až rustikální témata, čehož je nový výbor dokladem. Je jisté, že pod kůží básníka ptačího zpěvu a lesního klidu tepe vášeň a nejistá rozdvojenost člověka 20. století. Osamělá sveřepá cesta amerického autora, jenž si mimo jiné poezií dokázal vydělat na slušné živobytí, stále zůstává významným milníkem hodným zamyšlení. Výbor je doprovázen stylovými tušovými kresbami L. Regnera a paralelním textem anglického originálu.

V knize naleznete přehled historie a vývoje aplikované kineziologie, detailní teoretický výklad základních principů, přesné pokyna k provádění základních úpostupů, pokročilejší techniky, třiatřicet svalových testů s korekčními technikami a postupy pro aplikaci jednotlivých technik při individuálním vyšetření.

Výbor z veršů významného amerického básníka, opírající se zejména o sbírky Na sever od Bostonu, Horské údolí, Nový Hampshire, Potok tekoucí na západ. Frost opustil své městské povolání a odešel na venkov, splynul s ním a stal se básníkem prosté krásy venkova, vztahů člověka k přírodě a darů každodenního života. Ve svých verších prakticky uplatňoval zásadu, že „každá báseň má začít okouzlením a končit v moudrosti“.

Výbor z poezie vynikajícího amerického básníka, jehož leitmotivem je spojitost člověka s přírodou a přesvědčení o léčivé síle přírody.

"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--I took the one less traveled by,And that has made all the difference."These deceptively simple lines from the title poem of this collection suggest Robert Frost at his most representative: the language is simple, clear and colloquial, yet dense with meaning and wider significance.

Robert Frost is one of the most widely read, well loved, and misunderstood of modern writers. In his day, he was also an inveterate note-taker, penning thousands of intense aphoristic thoughts, observations, and meditations in small pocket pads and school theme books throughout his life. These notebooks, transcribed and presented here in their entirety for the first time, offer unprecedented insight into Frost's complex and often highly contradictory thinking about poetics, politics, education, psychology, science, and religion--his attitude toward Marxism, the New Deal, World War--as well as Yeats, Pound, Santayana, and William James. Covering a period from the late 1890s to early 1960s, the notebooks reveal the full range of the mind of one of America's greatest poets. Their depth and complexity convey the restless and probing quality of his thought, and show how the unruliness of chaotic modernity was always just beneath his appearance of supreme poetic control. Edited by preeminent Frost scholar Robert Faggen and annotated to help readers with the poet's more elusive references, the notebooks are also thoroughly cross-referenced, marking thematic connections within these and Frost's other writings, including his poetry, letters, and other prose. This is a major new addition to the canon of Robert Frost's writings.

Historia jednego z najdłużej trwających związków politycznych w Europie Wschodniej skupia się na unii między Królestwem Polskim a Wielkim Księstwem Litewskim, która trwała przez trzy stulecia, zanim zakończyła się u schyłku XVIII wieku. W tym czasie, mimo dominacji narracji o ekspansji Imperium Rosyjskiego, to właśnie ta unia była największą potęgą w regionie, a jej dzieje często przedstawiane są jedynie pobieżnie w kontekście tzw. "rozbiorów Polski". Pierwszy tom Oksfordzkiej historii unii polsko-litewskiej bada proces kształtowania się wielonarodowego i pluralistycznego państwa, które rozwijało się dzięki pokojowym negocjacjom, a nie wojnie. Wizja unii politycznej, zrodzona w latach 1385-1386, przyciągała Polaków, Litwinów, Rusinów i Niemców, a później także mieszkańców Prus i Inflant. Mimo wewnętrznych sporów, idea Rzeczypospolitej jako wspólnoty politycznej pod panowaniem monarchy elekcyjnego nigdy nie została porzucona. Robert Frost kwestionuje tradycyjne interpretacje tego związku, podkreślając, że unia polsko-litewska stanowi przykład "państwa złożonego", a nie jedynie przejrzystego modelu suwerennego państwa narodowego.
