    Úprk rozumu. Politická korektnost a smrt veřejné rozpravy v moderní Británii
    • Politická korektnost a smrt veřejné rozpravy v moderní Británii Známý britský novinář Anthony Browne se ve svém eseji zabývá jedním z klíčových fenoménů současného veřejného života – politickou korektností. Na rozdíl od ostatních textů, které se k politické korektnosti staví kriticky, však neulpívá na okrajových jevech, jakými jsou leckdy komicky neústrojná „korektní“ pojmenování. Politickou korektnost chápe jako ideologii, jež výrazně formuje nejen vyjadřování, ale hlavně myšlení a postoje jednotlivců i skupin, zvláště těch mediálně a politicky aktivních. Kde se vzala ideová struktura, v jejímž jménu je moderní západní člověk ochoten tolerovat cenzuru a autocenzuru? Jaké jsou její kořeny? A komu a čemu v konečném důsledku slouží? To jsou jen některé z velmi provokativních otázek, jež si autor v této knize pokládá. Vydání první

      Illus. in full color. "Mr. Piggott and his sons are a male chauvinist lot who, outside of yelling for their dinner, don't exercise themselves much around the house. When Mrs. Piggott finally tires of the endless chores that sandwich her workday, she leaves the menfolk on their own, with a note saying, 'You are pigs.' With the cooking and housework untended, they soon turn genuinely porcine, a transformation Browne foreshadows with pig faces on the wallpaper, vases, fireplace, phone. As in most of Browne's art, there is more than a touch of irony and visual humor here. Fun to read aloud."--Bulletin, Center for Children's Books.

    • Dobrodružstvá Alici v Krajine zázrakov je román z roku 1865, ktorý napísal anglický matematik Charles Lutwidge Dodgson pod pseudonymom Lewis Carroll. Príbeh rozpráva o dievčati menom Alícia, ktoré spadne do králičej nory a ocitne sa vo fantastickom svete obývanom zvláštnymi, antropomorfnými bytosťami. Alícia je zvedavá a hľadá dobrodružstvo, pričom sa stretáva s rôznymi podivnými postavami, ako sú Hatter, Cheshire Cat a kráľovná srdcová. Kniha skúma témy identity, logiky a absurdity, pričom Alícia prechádza rôznymi surrealistickými situáciami, ktoré vyzývajú jej chápanie reality. Príbeh je známy svojou hravou jazykovou hrou a fantastickými obrazmi, ktoré podnecujú čitateľovu predstavivosť. Dobrodružstvá Alici v Krajine zázrakov zostávajú jedným z najvýznamnejších diel detskej literatúry a sú obľúbené medzi čitateľmi všetkých vekových kategórií.
