Monografia podejmuje zagadnienia z poetyki teoretycznej i historycznej oraz historii literatury. Podstawowym kontekstem artystycznym i zarazem głównym przedmiotem dociekań autorki jest semantyzacja rytmu w utworach poetyckich przedstawicieli rosyjskiego i ukraińskiego futuryzmu, a kluczem do rozważań – perspektywa komparatystycznego oglądu dokonań jego reprezentantów, Wielimira Chlebnikowa i Mychajla Semenki, na tle wschodnioeuropejskiej awangardy artystycznej (przede wszystkim malarskiej i filmowej) oraz w odniesieniu do tradycji literackiej i ludowej. Dokonując przeglądu awangardowych poszukiwań twórczych w zakresie semantyki rytmu, autorka wykracza poza sferę ukształtowań językowych i uwzględnia także rytm przestrzenny i czasowy. Zagadnienia metryki porównawczej harmonijnie splatają się tu z problematyką historii sztuki, estetyki filmu i badań nad folklorem. Książka może stanowić inspirację i zarazem solidną podstawę do dalszych badań nad procesami semantyzacji rytmu w utworze poetyckim, szczególnie w liryce futurystycznej, studiów nad słowiańską metry- ką porównawczą oraz intermedialnymi eksperymentami wschodnio- europejskiej awangardy. Z recenzji dr hab. Tamary Brzostowskiej-Tereszkiewicz, prof. IBL PAN Целью монографии является анализ различных проявлений ритмизации поэтического текста в футуристической поэзии на примере избранных произведений двух выдающихся представителей российского и украинского футуризма соответственно - Велимира Хлебникова и Михайля Семенко. Суть исследования заключается в анализе поэтического ритма как фактора формы и содержания в теории и поэтической практике футуризма. В объем исходного материала входят произведения разных периодов творчества обоих вышеупомянутых поэтов, а его выбор зависит от особенностей поэтических концепций авторов, реализованных в текстах. Монография является вкладом в дальнейший анализ процессов семантизации ритма в поэтических текстах и в междисциплинарные исследования в области искусствоведения, киноэстетики и фольклористики.

Simple Laws for Smarter Decisions in a World of Too Much Information, from one of Europe’s leading data journalists.
‘Kiko Llaneras is one of the most consistently interesting data journalists to have emerged in the last decade’
John Burn-Murdoch, Chief data reporter, Financial Times
It’s almost impossible to feel confident we’ve made the right choice when we are constantly faced with conflicting data. From choosing the right school for our children to understanding major social and political events, making informed decisions can feel overwhelming. In a world overflowing with data, it is more important than ever to decipher what the numbers tell us.

VOLUME 3 in the DRAGONRIDERS OF PERN
‘Anne McCaffrey’s Pern novels are truly foundational books; it’s hard to imagine the modern-day landscape of fantasy and science fiction without them.’ Naomi Novik, author of the Temeraire series
When Lessa chose a dragon over her birthright, the hold she was to have inherited passed to Lord Jaxom instead. But Jaxom then muddied generations of Pern tradition by impulsively Impressing Ruth, a small, white dragon, as a child. From that moment on, the debate has raged. Is Jaxom now a dragonrider, or a lord holder? All anyone agrees on is that he cannot be both. But perhaps it is all academic anyway, for no one expects Ruth to survive.
But Ruth not only survives, he thrives. With Jaxom on the cusp on adulthood, the thing the pair most desire is to fight Thread side-by-side with the larger dragons. Jaxom knows what his dragon is capable of, and now that he is – mostly – grown, he is determined to buck tradition. Fortunately, a teenage rebellion may be the key to both Pern’s salvation and winning the woman of his dreams.
Don’t miss the original trilogy from Anne McCaffrey’s beloved Dragonriders of Pern series:
DRAGONFLIGHT • DRAGONQUEST • THE WHITE DRAGON
A propulsive narrative history of the motivation and mentality behind the Nazis and their supporters.
How could the Nazis have committed the crimes they did? Why did commandants of concentration and death camps willingly – often enthusiastically – oversee mass murder? How could ordinary Germans have tolerated the removal of the Jews? In THE NAZI MIND, bestselling author Laurence Rees combines history and the latest research in psychology to help answer some of the most perplexing questions surrounding the Second World War and the Holocaust.
Ultimately, he delves into the darkness to explain how and why these people were capable of committing the worst crime in the history of the world. Rees traces the rise and eventual fall of the Nazis through the lens of ‘twelve warnings’ – from talk about ‘them’ and ‘us’ to the escalation of racism – whilst also highlighting signs to look out for in present day leaders.
Rees uses previously unpublished testimony from former Nazis and those who grew up in the Nazi system, and in-depth psychological insights including cutting edge work on obedience, authority and the brain. THE NAZI MIND is a revelatory new way of understanding how so many people committed the most appalling crime of the 20th century.
This rich and enjoyable book recounts the tangled, dynamic encounters through which Asia has influenced Europe and North America over centuries
From the time of the ancient Greeks onwards the West's relationship with Asia consisted for the most part of outrageous tales of strange beasts and monsters, of silk and spices shipped over vast distances and an uneasy sense of unknowable empires fantastically far away. By the twentieth century much of Asia might have come under Western rule after centuries of warfare, but its intellectual, artistic and spiritual influence was fighting back.
The Light of Asia is a wonderfully varied and entertaining history of the many ways in which Asia has shaped European and North American culture over centuries of tangled, dynamic encounters, and the central importance of this vexed, often confused relationship. From Marco Polo onwards Asia has been both a source of genuine fascination and equally genuine failures of comprehension. China, India and Japan were all acknowledged to be both great civilizations and in crude ways seen as superseded by the West. From Chicago to Calcutta, and from antiquity to the new millennium, this is a rich, involving story of misunderstandings and sincere connection, of inspiration and falsehood, of geniuses, adventurers and con-men.
Christopher Harding's captivating gallery of people and places celebrates Asia's impact on the West in all its variety.

2013

Nabokov's early novel about a chess-playing genius, reissuing in Modern Classics as part of the Nabokov relaunch
Vladimir Nabokov's early novel is the dazzling story of the coarse, strange yet oddly endearing chess-playing genius Luzhin. Discovering his prodigious gift in boyhood and rising to the rank of International Grandmaster, Luzhin develops a lyrical passion for chess that renders the real world a phantom. As he confronts the fiery, swift-swooping Italian Grandmaster Turati, he brings into play his carefully devised defence. Making masterly play of metaphor and imagery, The Defense is the book that, of his early works, Nabokov felt 'contains and diffuses the greatest warmth'.
A Harvard professor shows how we can become better talkers - and why effective conversation will help us all thrive
Conversation is at the heart of our relationships and our decision-making. From meeting a colleague to saying goodnight to our loved ones, our days are filled with verbal communication -- but the science of everyday conversation is little known. We may spend time thinking about difficult exchanges, but research shows that there’s room to improve seemingly easy interactions too.
In Talk, Harvard professor Alison Wood Brooks shows how simple changes in how we communicate can enhance our relationships, our performance at work and our lives; who we talk to affects our happiness; and how to talk across differences. Her original research, based on thousands of conversations from sales calls to speed dating, provides fascinating insights - for instance, the way that certain questions affect dating success, and the role of jokes in reaching leadership positions.
Learning to converse even a little more effectively can make a big difference. Through her original TALK framework – Topics, Asking, Levity and Kindness – Wood Brooks will give you the tools that her MBA students say transforms their lives. Bringing together psychology, linguistics, sociology and neuroscience, Talk will show how we can use science to help us enrich our lives, one conversation at a time.

Reset will help you get unstuck, shake off old habits, and overcome the inertia of the way things always work. Heath shares a framework, based on research in psychology and hundreds of interviews, to help you vault toward what really matters.
Crucially, you can make positive changes without the need for additional time or money (which, for most of us, is not forthcoming). The secret is to find leverage points: places where a little bit of effort can yield a disproportionate return.
Our aspirations may differ, but our resolve is the same: to escape the stifling gravity of entrenched systems. To unlock forward momentum – making steady progress toward our highest goals – without the need for more resources. The same people, the same assets, but dramatically better results.
Yesterday, we were stuck. Today, we reset.
The beloved Australian classic, published in a stunning Penguin Clothbound Classics edition for the first time
Miles Franklin’s debut novel follows the vivacious and rebellious sixteen-year-old Sybylla Melvyn – closely modelled on Franklin herself – as she fights to break free of restrictive bush life. Growing up on her parents’ outback farm, Sybylla is desperate to read, write, sing and achieve great things. Yet her aspirations for a ‘brilliant career’ are persistently thwarted, first by the arduous demands of rural family life, and later by the shackles of a proposed conventional marriage to the wealthy Harold Beecham. With only her brilliant, conflicted mind to guide her, Sybylla is forced to define a life on her own terms.
My Brilliant Career is acclaimed for capturing the spirit of Australia at the turn of the twentieth century. The struggles of its fiery, precocious protagonist shine a light on the emergent women’s rights and suffrage movement during this period, and memorably evoke the intensity of youth.
