V roce 2012 se součástí Nakladatelství Slovart stalo nakladatelství Brio. Nakladatelství Brio vydávalo ve spolupráci s předními spisovateli a výtvarníky nádherně ilustrované originální příběhy a sbírky pohádek pro děti od šesti do dvanácti let. Pro starší děti, mládež a dospělé Brio nabízelo sebrané spisy pohádek a bajek od renomovaných spisovatelů, doplněné o to nejlepší z klasické literatury celého světa. V této tradici pokračujeme také my v rámci stejnojmenné edice.
Jsme výhradní distributor nakladatelství TASCHEN pro Českou republiku
A fascinating exploration of Ireland’s rich mythological tradition, from the author of the highly acclaimed The Origins of the Irish
By comparing the world depicted in the earliest Irish literary tradition with the archaeological evidence available on the ground, the author explores Ireland’s rich mythological tradition and tests its claims to represent reality.
'In Search of the Irish Dreamtime' returns to the subject of the origins of the Irish to interrogate the native Irish retelling of their own provenance, as related by medieval manuscripts. It attempts to explore the reality of this version of the earliest history of Ireland, and places apparently mythological events on a concrete timeline of invasions, colonizations and royal reigns that extends even further back in time than the history of Classical Greece.
