Питоны о Питонах. Автобиография Грэм Чэпмен, Терри Гиллиам, Терри Джоунз, Джон Клиз, Эрик Айдл, Майкл Пэйлин
ISBN: 978-5-905409-02-8 Год издания: 2011 Издательство: Додо Язык: Русский Сорок с лишним лет назад группа из пяти англичан - и одного приблудного американца - переписала законы комедийного жанра. "Воздушный цирк Монти Питона", получасовая ни на что не похожая телепрограмма, составленная из скетчей, шуток, абсурда и анимации, впервые появилась в эфире Би-би-си одним поздним вечером 1969 г., без всяких предварительных фанфар. Ее мировое влияние неизменно - до сих пор. Скромный телевизионный проект очень быстро стал самым значительным явлением в современной комедии. Таковым он и остается по сей день. "Питоны о Питонах. Автобиография" - уникальный взгляд на величайшую комик-группу XX века. Книгу украшают 64 страницы…

Варвары против Рима Терри Джонс, Алан Эрейра
ISBN: 978-5-699-40638-8 Год издания: 2010 Издательство: Эксмо, Алгоритм Язык: Русский Что мы знаем о народах, разрушивших Римскую империю, которых римляне приписали к нецивилизованным? Были ли варвары варварами? Автор книги доказывает, что, во всяком случае, они были создателями современного мира не в меньшей степени, чем сами римляне. Знакомство с ними вызывает удивление: искушенность кельтов в инженерном деле и математике; высокоразвитая религиозная философия даков; то, что греки, несомненно, находились на пороге промышленной революции; комфортная жизнь в усадьбах вандалов и своеобразный "железный занавес" между королевством Аттилы и Римской империей... Основное достоинство книги - возможность взглянуть на римскую…

Evil Machines Terry Jones
ISBN: 978-1908717009 Год издания: 2011 Издательство: Unbound This is a darkly funny set of 13 linked tales by the legendary Python. How do you feel about your phone? Or your car? I bet you don't think about them much, except when they go wrong. But what if they go really wrong and turn properly bad...evil, even? Join Terry Jones on a journey into the dark heart of machines. Meet the lift that took people to places they didn't want to go, the vacuum cleaner that was too powerful, the terrifying train to anywhere and Mrs Morris, a little old lady from Glasgow, who turns out to be a very resourceful heroine...Brisk and cheerful on the outside but as dark as Roald Dahl's finest within, Terry Jones' collection of thirteen cautionary fables will make you look at the 'helpful' inventions that surround you in a very different way. "Evil Machines" is charming fable suitable for Luddites of all ages or anyone those who like a bit of Pythonesque edge to their silliness. -
Варвары Терри Джонс, Алан Эрейра
ISBN: 978-5-98132-084-2, 0-563-49318-6 Год издания: 2007 Издательство: Столица-Принт Язык: Русский "Варвары" - это рассказ о народах, которых римляне приписали к нецивилизованным, и одновременно возможность взглянуть на самих римлян с альтернативной точки зрения - с точки зрения людей, зачисленных ими в отбросы. В существующей литературе они находятся либо на периферии главного повествования, либо появляются в нем в качестве захватчиков. Но мы смотрим на мир, который они создали и в котором обитали, и видим, что это Рим был захватчиком, а позднее, иногда - их хозяином, иногда - их жертвой. И поскольку именно "варвары" создали мир, в котором мы живем, возникает вопрос: "А что же сделали для нас римляне?" Ответ, как вы уже догадались,…

Goblins of Labyrinth Терри Джонс, Брайан Фрауд
ISBN: 978-0810970557 Год издания: 2006 Издательство: Harry N. Abrams Язык: Английский In 1986, the magical fantasy movie Labyrinth introduced the world to a set of unforgettable goblins from the minds of Jim Henson and Brian Froud.

Monty Python's: The Meaning of Life Терри Джонс, Терри Гиллиам, Майкл Пэйлин, Грэм Чепмен, Джон Клиз, Эрик Айдл
ISBN: 9780413774101 Год издания: 1999 Издательство: Methuen Publishing Ltd Язык: Русский Although aimed primarily at an audience of fish (who, let's face it, account for over 40% of all living vertebrates) Monty Python's, film, "The Meaning of Life", spans the whole range of human experience. It starts with the birth of a seemingly insignificant human being (especially from a haddock's point of view) who, sure enough, turns out to play no further part in the film. Nevertheless, the movie manages to stagger on for another ninety minutes or so (equivalent to about six years, if you're a whiting!) during which time it encompasses subjects very close to the hearts of freshwater and marine fish alike, such as: the Great Rift in Ecumenical attitudes towards certain types of prophylactics and sex education in our schools.
For humans there is a running commentary by six well-known fish, an episode of that popular audience-participation game: Find the Fish, and a scene which demonstrates the dangers of eating canned fish. But to be quite honest, if you are intending to watch the movie, and you are human, you are advised to take along your goldfish, or some other finny friend, since some of the scenes may be frankly disturbing for non-aquatic life-forms.
But if, as with many aquatic and even semi-aquatic life forms, regular movie-going is no longer part of your life, we hope this book will convey some of the flavour and excitement of a film that has already been hailed as "an exceptionally fishy experience", "a salt and fresh-water delight" and "a real gill-tickler". We feel that little, apart from the unpleasant smell, has been lost in translating this exceptional and challenging work into literary form (remembering, after all, that it was a member of the fish species that discovered printing). So sit back, adjust your chair to slot 3 (Optimum Reading Position) or slot 5 if you're very old, put your feet up on the "Ped-a-Rest" leisure stool, pour yourself a glass of Chitty's Diet Cognac and enjoy these exceptional insights into what Life is really all about - why we're here, what it all means, how much it costs and will it keep in the salad bar of a medium-priced refrigerator. Who knows, as you turn these pages (or have them turned for you by the Hanigan-Mainbrace Auto-Reader Junior-matic) you may begin to glimpse what a rich and wonderful existence lies beneath the waters that cover 6l%c of this planet. Sixty-one per cent! So enjoy yourself, and remember, if you're not completely satisfied with this book after you've thoroughly perused its contents then you're stupid and worthless.

Цивилизация варваров Терри Джонс
ISBN: 978-5-4438-0735-5 Год издания: 2014 Издательство: Алгоритм Язык: Русский Помним ли мы, что кроме Римской империи существовали и другие цивилизации, способные поспорить с Вечным городом за власть над миром?

Starship Titanic: A Novel Терри Джонс, Дуглас Адамс
ISBN: 978-0345368430 Год издания: 1998 Издательство: Ballantine Books Язык: Английский Arguably the greatest collaboration in the whole history of comedy!
Bestselling author Douglas Adams wrote the storyline based on his CD-ROM game of the same name (as this novel, not as him, obviously).
Terry Jones of Monty Python wrote the book. In the nude! Parents be warned! Most of the words in this book were written by a naked man!
So. You want to argue with that? All right, we give in.
Starship Titanic is the greatest, most fabulous, most technologically advanced interstellar cruise line ever built. It is like a cross between the Queen Mary, the Chrysler Building, Tutankhamen's tomb, and Venice. Furthermore, it cannot possibly go wrong. . . .
Sadly, however, seconds after its launch it undergoes SMEF, or Spontaneous Massive Existence Failure. And disappears.
Except, everything's got to be somewhere.
Coming home that night, on a little known planet called Earth, Dan and Lucy Gibson find something very large and very, very shiny sticking into their house. . . -

ISBN: 978-5-9614-2190-3 Год издания: 2019 Издательство: Альпина Паблишер Язык: Русский Идея "бирюзовых" компаний как целостных, эволюционирующих, живых организаций захватила бизнес-сообщество. Существуют ли такие компании на самом деле и можно ли перенять их опыт? Как построить компанию нового типа - без традиционной иерархии и бюрократии, эффективную и гибкую?

Она описывает инструменты, которые помогут выйти за пределы старых, авторитарных моделей лидерства и менеджмента."Спиральная динамика на практике" - результат многолетней работы социопсихолога и геополитика Дона Бека и его коллег из разных стран. Здесь вы найдете примеры использования этой теории на микро- и макроуровнях: от решения конфликтов на предприятии до программы по стабилизации геополитической обстановки на Ближнем Востоке.Книга будет интересна руководителям и специалистам по организационному управлению, а также политикам, психологам и социологам. -

The Life of Brian/Jesus Терри Джонс, Julian Doyle
ISBN: 978-1848766280 Год издания: 2011 Издательство: Matador Four hundred years ago, the Pythons would have been burnt at the stake for making the film Life of Brian. But this was the late 20th century and the antiquated British blasphemy laws were something of an irrelevance. That was until July 1977 when a blasphemy case succeeded against Gay News for publishing a poem about a Roman centurion's homoerotic leanings towards the crucified Christ. It was decided to open Life of Brian in the USA where freedom of speech is enshrined in the constitution. Or so it was thought but soon after the premiere in New York in 1979, the opening salvo in what became a heated and often surreal religious war of words came from Rabbi Abraham Hecht who declared, "Never have we come across such a foul, disgusting, blasphemous film before." Life of Brian was banned in many countries for blasphemy. But what is blasphemy and what should be the punishment? Who wants the law and why? And does God believe in it? Julian Doyle, the film's editor, analyses the film and compares each scene of the film with the actual Biblical events and comes to some extraordinary conclusions, including some special insights into the film that has been voted Britain's best comedy ever.
