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.

A history of the Japanese archipelago through its material artefacts over fifteen millennia.
This spirited visual account of life in the Japanese archipelago spans over 15,000 years, revealing the stories behind an intriguing selection of objects from the British Museum Collection. It explores the history of the region through artefacts, from the lengthy prehistoric record, through the rise of Buddhism and a military elite in Japan’s classical and medieval periods, to the economic and cultural developments of the early modern and modern eras.
Ancient flame pots and jewelry, textiles and armour, folding screens and contemporary manga provide glimpses of the lives of farmers and merchants, medieval warriors and modern women. A wide range of ceramics and sculpture, metalwork and lacquerware, paintings, prints and textiles provides a rich and compelling portrait of a society and culture that occupies a special place in the imagination of its citizens and visitors.
