Book Synopsis La Révolution française by : Albert Soboul
Download or read book La Révolution française written by Albert Soboul and published by Editions Gallimard. This book was released on 1984 with total page 618 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Révolution française est aujourd'hui encore l'objet d'un conflit d'interprétations. Pour les uns, à la suite des travaux de François Furet inspirés par la lecture de Tocqueville, elle serait de part en part un événement politique, où l'idéologie de l'égalité l'emportait sur celle de la liberté, créant ainsi une instabilité des institutions qui aurait duré jusqu'à l'instauration de la Troisième République. Pour les autres, à la suite des travaux d'Albert Soboul inspirés par la lecture de Marx, la Révolution serait de part en part un bouleversement social. Dans cet ouvrage, qui est la quintessence de ses travaux, Soboul explicite, à partir des bases structurelles et conjoncturelles de la crise de l'Ancien Régime, les contradictions sociales et politiques qui auraient dicté sa marche à la Révolution. Du radicalisme démocratique de la période jacobine aux formes tâtonnantes de la consolidation institutionnelle de la France bourgeoise, Soboul dessine la trajectoire qui aurait conduit la France des survivances du féodalisme à la mise en place des institutions cardinales de la société contemporaine.

Download or read book Robespierre written by Hervé Leuwers and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La 4e de couverture indique : « Robespierre, c'est la Révolution, son souffle épique, et son soufre aussi. L'homme est chargé de tous les maux et couvert de tous les éloges avant même son élection au Comité de salut public, en juillet 1793. Aujourd'hui, beaucoup lui associent la Terreur et les massacres de Vendée ; d'autres soulignent son combat pour le suffrage universel, sa dénonciation de la peine de mort et de l'esclavage, sa défense d'un pays menacé, son rêve d'une république qui offre à tous une égale dignité. Comment dépasser ce paradoxe ? Hervé Leuwers s'est lancé sur les traces de l'enfant d'Arras devenu mythe, en véritable historien, bousculant les présupposés, analysant des sources jusqu'à aujourd'hui inédites, creusant les archives pour faire jaillir le portrait d'un juriste et homme de lettres, d'un orateur hors pair, d'un politique intransigeant et désintéressé. Un homme d'état, certes, comme la France en a peu connu dans son histoire, mais aussi une personnalité complexe, dérangeante, et pourtant souvent généreuse. Cette biographie de référence invite à redécouvrir un homme d'exception qui fascine dans le monde entier. »
Download or read book Orestes written by Voltaire and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-08-02 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Orestes was produced in 1750, an experiment which intensely interested the literary world and the public. In his Dedicatory Letters to the Duchess of Maine, Voltaire has the following passage on the Greek drama: "We should not, I acknowledge, endeavor to imitate what is weak and defective in the ancients: it is most probable that their faults were well known to their contemporaries. I am satisfied, Madam, that the wits of Athens condemned, as well as you, some of those repetitions, and some declamations with which Sophocles has loaded his Electra: they must have observed that he had not dived deep enough into the human heart. I will moreover fairly confess, that there are beauties peculiar not only to the Greek language, but to the climate, to manners and times, which it would be ridiculous to transplant hither. Therefore I have not copied exactly the Electra of Sophocles-much more I knew would be necessary; but I have taken, as well as I could, all the spirit and substance of it."

Download or read book Prince of Europe written by Philip Mansel and published by Orion Publishing Company. This book was released on 2005 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Habsburg courtier Charles-Joseph Prince de Ligne seduced and symbolized eighteenth-century Europe. Speaking French, the international language of the day, he travelled between Paris and St Petersburg, charming everyone he met. He stayed with Madame du Barry, dined with Frederick the Great and travelled to the Crimea with Catherine the Great. But Ligne was more than a frivolous charmer. He participated in and recorded some of the most important events and movements of his day: the Enlightenment; the struggle for mastery in Germany; the decline of the Ottoman Empire; the birth of German nationalism; and the wars to liberate Europe from Napoleon. He had surprisingly radical views, believing for example in property rights for women, legal rights for Jews and the redistribution of wealth. He was also a highly respected writer and his books on gardens, his letters from the Crimea and his epigrams are considered minor classics of French literature.
Download or read book Epic and Empire written by David Quint and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alexander the Great, according to Plutarch, carried on his campaigns a copy of the Iliad, kept alongside a dagger; on a more pronounced ideological level, ancient Romans looked to the Aeneid as an argument for imperialism. In this major reinterpretation of epic poetry beginning with Virgil, David Quint explores the political context and meanings of key works in Western literature. He divides the history of the genre into two political traditions: the Virgilian epics of conquest and empire that take the victors' side (the Aeneid itself, Camoes's Lusíadas, Tasso's Gerusalemme liberata) and the countervailing epic of the defeated and of republican liberty (Lucan's Pharsalia, Ercilla's Araucana, and d'Aubigné's Les tragiques). These traditions produce opposing ideas of historical narrative: a linear, teleological narrative that belongs to the imperial conquerors, and an episodic and open-ended narrative identified with "romance," the story told of and by the defeated. Quint situates Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained within these rival traditions. He extends his political analysis to the scholarly revival of medieval epic in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and to Sergei Eisenstein's epic film, Alexander Nevsky. Attending both to the topical contexts of individual poems and to the larger historical development of the epic genre, Epic and Empire provides new models for exploring the relationship between ideology and literary form.

Book Synopsis Notebooks for an Ethics by : Jean-Paul Sartre
Download or read book Notebooks for an Ethics written by Jean-Paul Sartre and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1992-10 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the famous conclusion to Being and Nothingness, Jean-Paul Sartre announced that he would devote his next philosophical work to moral problems. Although he worked on this project in the late 1940s, Sartre never completed it to his satisfaction, and it remained unpublished until after his death in 1980. Presented here for the first time in English, Notebooks for an Ethics is Sartre's attempt to articulate a moral philosophy. In the Notebooks he addresses any number of themes and topics relevant to an effort to formulate a concrete and revolutionary socialist ethics, among them the differences between force and violence, the relationship of means and ends, and the relationship of oppression and alienation. Most important, he tries to show that there can be an authentic mutual recognition among free individuals where no one steals another's freedom. While remaining committed to the basic principles of Being and Nothingness, Sartre here seeks to locate the foundation for action in history and society. The Notebooks thus form an important bridge between the early existentialist Sartre and the later Marxist social thinker of the Critique of Dialectical Reason. Sartre grapples anew with such central issues as "authenticity" and the relation of alienation and freedom to moral values. In dealing with fundamental modes of relating to the Other, among them violence, entreaty, demand, appeal, refusal, and revolt, he highlights the notions of conversion and creation as they figure in the necessary transition from individualism to historical consciousness. The Notebooks themselves are complemented here by two appendixes, one on "the good and subjectivity", the other on the problem of blacks in theUnited States as a case study of oppression.

Book excerpt: The Nouveau Roman writers have been actively involved in the theory as well as the practice of fiction, participating in a series of vigorous debates on issues such as the political significance of literature, formalism and structuralism, the status of the author, etc. This study discusses Robbe-Grillet, Sarraute, Simon, Butor and Ricardou, analysing both the interaction of their own theory and fiction and their reactions to the work of figures such as Sartre, Barthes, Lvi-Strauss, Sollers and Kristeva.

Book Synopsis Hodge Theory and Complex Algebraic Geometry II: by : Claire Voisin
Download or read book Hodge Theory and Complex Algebraic Geometry II: written by Claire Voisin and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-12-20 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second volume of this modern account of Kaehlerian geometry and Hodge theory starts with the topology of families of algebraic varieties. The main results are the generalized Noether-Lefschetz theorems, the generic triviality of the Abel-Jacobi maps, and most importantly, Nori's connectivity theorem, which generalizes the above. The last part deals with the relationships between Hodge theory and algebraic cycles. The text is complemented by exercises offering useful results in complex algebraic geometry.
