Book excerpt: These articles are mainly concerned with medieval French literature, particularly those areas in which the honorand of the volume, Rupert T. Pickens, has distinguished himself: Old French Arthurian romance, Marie de France, chanson de geste, later poetry (including Villon), and the Occitan troubadour lyric. Among the contributors are some of the most significant scholars from the U.S.A., Canada, France, Switzerland, and the U.K. working in Old French studies today. The volume will be of interest to specialists in Old French, Occitan, and medieval literature generally. Some of the articles deal with relatively unknown works, and all are informed by current developments in medieval literary studies

Download or read book Claude Simon written by Jean Duffy and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2002-06-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays celebrates the work of the French Nobel prize-winning novelist Claude Simon. Scholars from France, Germany, the United States and the United Kingdom reconsider the fifty years of Simon’s fiction in the light of his large-scale autobiographical novel Le Jardin des Plantes (1997). From a variety of perspectives – postmodernist, psychoanalytic, aesthetic – contributors reflect on the central paradox of Simon’s work: his writing and rewriting of an experience of war so disruptive and traumatic that words can never be adequate to communicate it. The layers of artifice in Le Jardin des Plantes and the nature of Simon’s aesthetic are analysed in essays which explore intertextual resonances between Simon and Proust, Flaubert, Borges and Poussin. A complementary view of Simon’s Photographies 1937–1970 shows that it too can be seen as form of indirect autobiography.

Book excerpt: Wild animals have fascinated human observers since time immemorial. The story of our interest in collecting, classifying and dominating Nature so that its inner workings could be understood also looms large in the history of science, and thus it is surprising that the history of menageries, zoological gardens and the zoo as we know it today has been so poorly documented. This gap is addressed by Zoo, a comprehensive history of the zoo in the Western world.

Download or read book Syntagmatia written by Dirk Sacré and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 825 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collective volume has been dedicated to two distinguished scholars of Neo-Latin Studies on the occasion of their retirement after a long and fruitful academic career, one at the Université catholique Louvain-la-Neuve, the other at the internationally renowned Seminarium Philologiae Humanisticae of Leuven University. Both the rich variety of subjects dealt with and the international diversity of the scholars authoring contributions reflect the wide interests of the celebrated Neo-Latinists, their international position, and the actual status of the discipline itself. Ranging from the Trecento to the 21st century, and embracing Latin writings from Italy, Hungary, The Netherlands, Germany, France, Poland, the New World, Spain, Scotland, Denmark and China, this volume is as rich and multifaceted as it is voluminous, for it not only offers studies on well-known figures such as Petrarch, Lorenzo Valla, Erasmus, Vives, Thomas More, Eobanus Hessus, Lipsius, Tycho Brahe, Jean de la Fontaine and Jacob Cats, but it also includes new contributions on Renaissance commentaries and editions of classical authors such as Homer, Seneca and Horace; on Neo-Latin novels, epistolography and Renaissance rhetoric; on Latin translations from the vernacular and invectives against Napoleon; on the teaching of Latin in the 19th century; and on the didactics of Neo-Latin nowadays.

Download or read book Le Jardin des supplices (French Edition) written by OCTAVE MIRBEAU and published by BEYOND BOOKS HUB. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extrait : "Avant de raconter un des plus effroyables épisodes de mon voyage en Extrême-Orient, il est peut-être intéressant que j'explique brièvement dans quelles conditions je fus amené à l'entreprendre. C'est de l'histoire contemporaine." Descriptif : Le jardin des supplices, invention littéraire de Mirbeau, réunit dans une configuration obsédante ces deux clichés : celui de la cruauté des Chinois qui lui sert de paravent exotique pour exposer une réflexion anthropologique portant sur la cruauté humaine en général. Il ne contient pas seulement des descriptions horrifiantes de supplices. Il contient aussi des considérations sur la cruauté humaine et sur la pulsion scopique et sur le voyeurisme. Le roman d’Octave Mirbeau a eu à l’époque un grand succès. Extrait : Si tu es près de moi… quand je mourrai… cher petit cœur… écoute bien !… Tu mettras… c’est cela… tu mettras un joli coussin de soie jaune entre mes pauvres petits pieds et le bois du cercueil… Et puis… tu tueras mon beau chien du Laos… et tu l’allongeras, tout sanglant, contre moi… comme il a coutume de s’allonger lui-même, tu sais, avec une patte sur ma cuisse et une autre patte sur mon sein… Et puis… longtemps… longtemps… tu m’embrasseras, cher amour, sur les dents… et dans les cheveux… Et tu me diras des choses… des choses si jolies… et qui bercent et qui brûlent… des choses comme quand tu m’aimes… Pas, tu veux, mon chéri ?… Tu me promets ?… Voyons, ne fais pas cette figure d’enterrement… Ce n’est pas de mourir, qui est triste… c’est de vivre quand on n’est pas heureux… Jure ! jure que tu me promets !… Le Jardin des supplices n'est pas seulement le catalogue de toutes les perversions dans lesquelles s'est complu l'imaginaire de 1900. L'ouvrage exprime aussi l'ambiguïté de l'attitude d'un Européen libéral, mais Européen avant tout, devant le colonialisme et ce qu'on n'appelait pas encore le Tiers Monde. Pour Mirbeau, la Chine est le lieu des plaisirs mortels et, par leur système pénal et l'invraisemblable raffinement de leur cruauté, les Chinois ne peuvent être à ses yeux que des barbares : Emmanuelle sur fond de guerre du Viêt-nam, comme l'écrit Michel Delon. Mais les Chinois vivent dans une société plus solidaire et matériellement moins asservie que la nôtre. Et surtout ils sont d'admirables artistes. Tel est le paradoxe de la Chine : un jardin de supplices mais aussi les plus belles porcelaines, les plus beaux bronzes que l'on ait jamais faits. «Voici donc les Barbares à peau jaune dont les civilisés d'Europe à peau blanche violent le sol. Nous sommes toujours les mêmes sauvages, les mêmes ennemis de la Beauté.»

Book excerpt: "Fascinating . . . Adèle has glanced at the covenant of modern womanhood--the idea that you can have it all or should at least die trying--and detonated it." --The New York Times Book Review "[A] fierce, uncanny thunderbolt of a book." --Entertainment Weekly From the bestselling author of The Perfect Nanny--one of the 10 Best Books of the Year of The New York Times Book Review--as well as Sex and Lies and In the Country of Others, her prizewinning novel about a sex-addicted woman in Paris She wants only one thing: to be wanted. Adèle appears to have the perfect life: She is a successful journalist in Paris who lives in a beautiful apartment with her surgeon husband and their young son. But underneath the surface, she is bored--and consumed by an insatiable need for sex. Driven less by pleasure than compulsion, Adèle organizes her day around her extramarital affairs, arriving late to work and lying to her husband about where she's been, until she becomes ensnared in a trap of her own making. Suspenseful, erotic, and electrically charged, Adèle is a captivating exploration of addiction, sexuality, and one woman's quest to feel alive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A microhistory of eighteenth-century systemic change that places ordinary French lives alongside global advances Provincializing Global History explores the subtle transformation of the coastal province of the Languedoc in the eighteenth century. Mining a wealth of archival sources, James Livesey unveils how provincial elites and peasant households unwittingly created new practices. Managing local political institutions, establishing new credit systems, building networks of natural historians, and introducing new plants and farm machinery to the region opened up the inhabitants of the province to new norms and standards. The practices were gradually embedded in daily life and allowed the province to negotiate the new worlds of industrial society and capitalism.
