Prague in Black and Gold
Prague is at the core of everything both wonderful and terrible in Western history, but few people truly understand this city's unique culture.

Prague in Danger
A dramatic account of life in Czechoslovakia's great capital during the Nazi Protectorate With this successor book to Prague in Black and Gold, his account of more than a thousand years of Central European history, the great scholar Peter Demetz focuses on just six short years—a tormented, tragic, and unforgettable time.

Corpus Linguistics
Corpus linguistics is the study of language data on a large scale - the computer-aided analysis of very extensive collections of transcribed utterances or written texts. This textbook outlines the basic methods of corpus linguistics, explains how the discipline of corpus linguistics developed and surveys the major approaches to the use of corpus data. It uses a broad range of examples to show how corpus data has led to methodological and theoretical innovation in linguistics in general. Clear and detailed explanations lay out the key issues of method and theory in contemporary corpus linguistics. A structured and coherent narrative links the historical development of the field to current topics in 'mainstream' linguistics. Practical tasks and questions for discussion at the end of each chapter encourage students to test their understanding of what they have read and an extensive glossary provides easy access to definitions of technical terms used in the text.
Hidden History
Otokar Brezina (1868-1929) was the most prominent Czech poet of his day. HIDDEN HISTORY, however, is not precisely poetry but a collection of poetic essays. Brezina's creation of this entirely new genre represents the apotheosis of his work, as well as a prime example of his ablity to apply metaphorical language to an exploration of the mystical links between art and life and between the visible and invisible worlds.
