The famous modernist manifesto Revolutionary Anthology Devětsil, published in the winter 1922, lists two editors, Jaroslav Seifert (19011986) and Karel Teige (19001951). Similarly, we should preface the 1925 collection Na vlnách TSF (On the Waves o f TSF) with the names of these two authors, leading representatives of the Czech avantgarde between the two World Wars and founding members of the artists group Devětsil. Karel Teige laid out the verses of his friend Jaroslav Seifert as striking typ ographical poems. Purportedly, he depleted nearly all the font cases he could find at Obzinas printing shop. In any case, he faithfully fulfilled the precepts of poetism about the world and poetryto be multisensory. Imbued with all the beauties of the world, Seiferts verses are introduced with a mischievously reversed paraphrase of Karel Hynek Máchas (18101836) famous words: Light grief on the face / Deep laughter in the heart. With the effortlessness mimicking wireless transmission, Sei fert and Teige transport us to Paris (Seifert visited the City of Light with Teige in 1924), to places where pineapples grow, to Australia, Marseille, New York, to distant ocean shores, and back to the banks of the Vltava river in Pragueall this fac ilitated, as it were, by Télégraphie sans fil (literally from French: wireless telegraphy). To be sure, the greatest concern of the lyrically gloomy narrator is joyfully unambiguous honeymoon destinations; if die we must, let us die of love... In sub sequent editions (1938), Seiferts youthful manifesto was titled Svatební cesta (Honeymoon). Understandably so, because the changed circumstances of Czech poetry hardly allowed for stepping into the same river twice; the former associates parted ways in their creative endeavors. Teige became a multifaceted art theoretician and embraced surrealism. After breaking with the communist party in 1929, Seifert became a lifelong social democrat and devoted himself primarily to newspaper journalism. The first edition of Na vlnách TSF gradually became rare until only reprints allowed us to explore the sources of this visual, almost hedonistic poetry. As a reprint, the collection is appearing for the fifth time, this time in its most faithful facsimil e incarnation and in two independent permutationsin the original Czech version and as an English-Czech remake by Zdeněk Trinkewitz, translated by Dana Loewy. The Czech-born translator lives in the United States where early in her career, she won a s tudent translation prize by the American Translators Association (1992). Subsequently, she received an honorary mention by the foremost Czech translators association and her translations of Jaroslav Seiferts early work were published in 1997 by Hydr a Books, a division of Northwestern University Press.

Essential to Mises's concept of a classical liberal economy is the absence of interference by the state. In World War I, Germany and its allies were overpowered by the Allied Powers in population, economic production, and military might, and its defeat was inevitable.Mises believed that Germany should not seek revenge for the peace of Versailles; rather it should adopt liberal ideas and a free-market economy by expanding the international division of labor, which would help all parties. "For us and for humanity," Mises wrote, "there is only one salvation: return to rationalistic liberalism."Ludwig von Mises (1881-1973) was the leading spokesman of the Austrian School of economics throughout most of the twentieth century.Bettina Bien Greaves is a former resident scholar and trustee of the Foundation for Economic Education and was a senior staff member

O komikse (Manga):As high society's social calendar opens up and the Season draws to a close, London is gripped by fear. Someone has taken to stalking women of the night and painting the town red...in their blood. The name on everyone's lips seems to be 'Jack the Ripper' - and as a result, the name on Queen Victoria's lips is Phantomhive. Summoned to London to clean up the mess created by this madman, Ciel Phantomhive arrives with Sebastian, his extraordinary butler, at his side to pour him tea, polish his silver, and...investigate a serial killer. And with the aid (and occasional interference) of a few of the Phantomhive house's numerous acquaintances, little stands in the way of the young earl getting to the bottom of this mystery.

Tváří v tvář složitým konstrukčním detailům Nadace Querini Stampalia italského architekta Carla Scarpy, nezvyklým ocelovým spojům, betonu valícího se z kaskádovitých tvarů i kameni otesanému do nepřehledných vzorů se Michale Cadwell vzdává snahy o jejich teoretickou kategorizaci a místo toho se uchyluje k ocenění jejich výstřednosti a evokuje jejich všestranné působení. To, co dříve zamítá jako sbírku fetiše, začíná nakonec chápat jako koherentně vystavěný svět, nicméně i nadále podivný. Ve Zvláštních detailech se Cadwell zabývá prací čtyřech významných architektů, kteří ozvláštnili nejrezistentnější oblast architektury: konstrukci. V klíčových stavbách své kariéry Scarpa, Frank Lloyd Wright, Mies van der Rohe a Louis Kahn vytvořili detaily, které nám podkopávají kritickou i analytickou půdu pod nohama.Cadwell zkoumá zvláštnosti materiálové menažérie Scarpovy Querini Stampalia, lehké dřevěné rámové konstrukce Wrightova Jacobs House, svářený ocelový rám Miesova Farnsworth House a železobeton Kahnova Yale Center for British Art. Zjišťuje, že každý z těchto architektů mění parametry základních faktů konstrukce, čímž vzniká mírný, ale nepopiratelný posun ve fyzičnosti budovy. A každému z nich připadá příroda zvláštní a její zvláštnost je nakažlivá: příroda zvedá stavidla vyčerpaných kulturních nápadů, omezených analytických postupů a zastaralých výrobních technik. Uvědomíme-li si zvláštnost přírody, získáme tak nový pohled na svět, který lze rozpoznat v uspořádání materiálnosti světa těchto architektů jejich zvláštní detaily.

In Dread Talk Velma Pollard describes the language of Rastafari, tracing its development as an expansion of Jamaican Creole while showing how it is distinct both from Creole and Standard English. She demonstrates that dread talk must be understood in terms of Jamaican social history, emphasizing its religious origins, its evolution as a language of social protest, and its spread around the world through the Reggae music of Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, and Jimmy Cliff. Dread Talk examines the effects of Rastafarian language on Creole in other parts of the Carribean, its influence in Jamaican poetry, and its effects on standard Jamaican English. This revised edition includes a new introduction that outlines the changes that have occurred since the book first appeared and a new chapter, "Dread Talk in the Diaspora," that discusses Rastafarian as used in the urban centres of North America and Europe.Pollard provides a wealth of examples of Rastafarian language-use and definitions, explaining how the evolution of these forms derives from the philosophical position of the Rasta speakers: the socio-political image which the Rastaman has had of himself in a society where lightness of skin, economic status, and social privileges have traditionally gone together must be included in any consideration of Rastafarian words; and for the man making the words is a man looking up from under, a man pressed down economically and socially by the establishment.
