Brud, nędza, ruina – tak w skrócie można opisać Dziurę, miasto przypominające ogromne slamsy. Zamieszkujący je ludzie zdani są na łaskę czarowników, którzy regularnie przybywają z innego wymiaru, by przeprowadzać na nich magiczne eksperymenty. Te zaś najczęściej kończą się makabrycznie, o czym boleśnie przekonał się Kajman. Wskutek rzuconego czaru stracił pamięć, a jego głowa przybrała jaszczurzy wygląd. Aby odczynić ciążący na nim urok, mężczyzna wraz ze swoją towarzyszką, N...

Książka wyrosła z miłości do literatury, ugruntowana w setkach przeczytanych powieści, reportaży, dzienników i innych tekstów literackich. W formie pseudopamiętnika Adam Boberski zabiera czytelnika w podróż po zagmatwanym i nieskończonym kłączu odwołań do mniej lub bardziej kanonicznych dzieł literatury i filmu, dając często upust owocom swoich refleksji nad otaczającą go rzeczywistością. Czasami zabawnych, ale często głębokich i gorzkich.     "Erudycyjny mikst wątków, opowie...

At the heart of the extraordinary ferment of the High Renaissance stood a distinctive, strange and beguiling figure: the magus. An unstable mix of scientist, bibliophile, engineer, fabulist and fraud, the magus ushered in modern physics and chemistry while also working on everything from secret codes to siege engines to magic tricks.Anthony Grafton's wonderfully original book discusses the careers of men who somehow managed to be both figures of startling genius and - by some...

Nie tylko baśnie braci Grimm bawią i uczą najmłodsze pokolenia. Rosyjskie bajki ludowe, choć trochę zapomniane, śmiało mogą z nimi w tej dziedzinie konkurować. Rosyjskie opowieści zakorzeniły się w naszej świadomości dawno, dawno temu, tak więc najwyższy czas, by do nich powrócić. Wspólnie z małymi czytelnikami warto docenić uniwersalny przekaz historii o Kurze pstrokatce, Lisiczce z wałkiem albo Maszy i niedźwiedziu, która doczekała się nawet swojego filmowego, ani...

Podobno ludzie lubią się bać. Dowodem na to mogą być baśnie braci Grimm, pełne grozy, fascynujących, ale i przerażających stworzeń oraz krwawych wydarzeń. Opowieści te, spisane na podstawie ludowych podań oraz mitów, intrygują i pobudzają wyobraźnię, nie tylko dzieci. Kolejne opracowania najlepiej świadczą o popularności baśni niemieckich pisarzy i językoznawców – popularności, która nie gaśnie od roku 1812, gdy w księgarniach pojawił się pierwszy tom ich życiowego ...
