Gyvenimo stebėtojo memuarai
Interneto tautosaka tapę „užkietėjusio“ vilniečio pasakojimai apie anų ir šių laikų gyvenimą sostinėje, tuometinėje sovietų imperijoje ir posovietiniame plačiajame pasaulyje, su atitinkama leksika ir juokeliais, dažnai priverčiantys nusišypsoti, o kartais – net ir raitytis iš juoko. Iš pirmo žvilgsnio, regis, neišskirtinės istorijos, iš kurių rašytojas sugeba sukurti unikaliai patrauklius pasakojimus. „Pasakotojas prasideda nuo matymo. Nemokantis matyti, nesugebantis pastebėti žmogus niekada ir nieko nepapasakos. Regimantas moka matyti. Atsiverskite ir patys įsitikinsite“, – apie šią knygą rašo žurnalo „Verslo klasė“ redaktorius Aurelijus Katkevičius.
Ukbaro enciklopedija
„Ukbaro enciklopedijos“ autentiškumą ir archajiškumą įrodo faktas, kad pirmąkart apie galimą jos egzistavimą užsiminta dar 1940-aisiais – 73 metai prieš pirmąjį žinomą jos leidimą (užuominos autorius – toks Chorchė Luisas Borchesas). Intriguoja tai, kad tąkart užsiminta buvo abejotino realumo šalies, vadinamos Argentina (vedinys iš graikiško argonautų mito?), rašytiniuose šaltiniuose, tačiau literatūrologai vienbalsiai sutaria, kad „Ukbaro enciklopedija“ parašyta seniausia gyva pasaulio kalba – lietuvių. Literatūros mokslo pasaulyje šiuo metu aktyviai diskutuojama, ar „Ukbaro enciklopedija“ nėra tikrasis ir vienintelis lietuvių (kitų autoritetų teigimu – ir (ar) argentiniečių) nacionalinis epas. Populiarėja teorija, kad Ukbaras esąs tikrasis legendinės Sarmatijos (įvairiuose šaltiniuose randamos variacijos Uqbar > Suqbar > Surqmar > Sarmatr) pavadinimas. Elektroninė leidykla „Naujas vardas“ pirmą kartą pasaulio istorijoje pateikia skaitytojams visus iki šiolei atrastus, iš pirminių šaltinių rekonstruotus „Ukbaro enciklopedijos“ skyrelius originalo kalba.

Historical Dictionary of Russian and Soviet Cinema
Russian and Soviet cinema occupies a unique place in the history of world cinema. Legendary filmmakers such as Sergei Eisenstein, Vsevolod Pudovkin, Dziga Vertov, Andrei Tarkovsky, and Sergei Paradjanov have created oeuvres that are being screened and studied all over the world. The Soviet film industry was different from others because its main criterion of success was not profit, but the ideological and aesthetic effect on the viewer. Another important feature is Soviet cinema’s multinational (Eurasian) character: while Russian cinema was the largest, other national cinemas such as Georgian, Kazakh, and Ukrainian played a decisive role for Soviet cinema as a whole. The Historical Diction...
Memoirs of a Life Cut Short
Levas Ciparis, the anti-hero of this masterly critique of life in the late Soviet Union, is a man alone and he desperately wants to belong. He is obstructed in this quest by his own innocence and decency, which occasionally cause him to act with absurd inflexibility. In fact, the irresolvable tension between moral probity and necessary compromise is one of the many themes of this novel: "Yes, I truly did believe, being an honest, sufficiently pure and persistent person, that if I took up the work of the Komsomol, I would most certainly be capable of changing and enriching that community." In part, the first-person narration describes the process of being disabused of that delusion. Ciparis i...

Legal guide on land consolidation
Land consolidation is a highly effective land management instrument that allows for the improvement of the structure of agricultural holdings and farms in a country, which increases their economic and social efficiency and brings benefits both to right holders as well as to society in general. Since land consolidation gives mobility to land ownership and other land rights, it may also facilitate the allocation of new areas with specific purposes other than agriculture, such as for public infrastructure or nature protection and restoration. Land consolidation instruments necessitate a thoroughly elaborated legal regulation that is integrated into the national legal framework. This legal guide...
The Tudor Wife
A lustful king. A thirst for power. The terrible price of revenge... Encompassing the reigns of four of Henry's wives, from the doomed Anne to the reckless Katherine Howard, The Tudor Wife is an unforgettable story of ambition, lust, and jealousy. When we meet the shy, plain Lady Jane Parker, she feels out of place in Henry VIII's court, which is filled with glamour and intrigue. Then she meets the handsome George Boleyn and becomes overjoyed when her father arranges a match... until she meets Anne. George Boleyn is completely devoted to his sister Anne; and as Anne's circle of admirers grows, so does Jane's resentment. Becoming Henry's queen makes Anne the most powerful woman in England; but it also makes her vulnerable, as the King is desperate for an heir. When he begins to tire of his mercurial wife, the stage is set for the ultimate betrayal...
