Book Synopsis The Art of Happiness by : Emilie Du Châtelet
Download or read book The Art of Happiness written by Emilie Du Châtelet and published by . This book was released on 2017-03-05 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is passion dangerous and to be avoided? Can we really be fulfilled without love, and can a broken heart ever be repaired? Is friendship still possible once desire has diminished or gone? Can mean and vicious people be happy? Is ambition overrated and only for losers? Are possessions and great wealth a guarantee of happiness, or an obstacle to it? Should we care about our reputations or what others say about us? Does it matter what we leave behind us for future generations? Can women be as fulfilled as men, or vice versa?Madame du Ch�telet addresses these and other perennial questions in a style of prose that is at once warm, engaging, and uniquely her own. Drawing freely from her own joys, disappointments and present state of anguish, she encourages the reader to learn from experience and inevitable mistakes, and to confront the gifts and blows of life fearlessly, at every age. Though she writes in the mid-18th century, and in circumstances of relative comfort, her private reflections have a timeless and universal quality. She seems to light a path towards the many sources and forms of happiness and fulfilment that are within reach, not just of paragons of virtue, but of mere humans with all their flaws and frailties. In the midst of her own despondency, she inspires us with her wisdom, her discernment, and a 'gourmandise' that, just for a change, is not bad for our health.Madame du Ch�telet is the author of these Reflections on Happiness, which she wrote in a state of despondency as her close relationship with the great writer and philosopher, Voltaire, was approaching its end. Nevertheless, Voltaire remained a good friend, right up to her death, in her early forties, a few weeks after the birth or her daughter, who also died a few months' later.Sheila Oakley, who has a doctorate in French 18th century history, has translated this Discourse on Happiness from French into English. She has also written the preface to this translation, and has added a short chronology of the author's life, and supplementary notes to explain certain contemporary allusions and references. She would be delighted to hear from readers who wish to give their impressions of the book, after reading it.

Book Synopsis Chouannerie and Counter-Revolution, Part 1 by : Maurice Hutt
Download or read book Chouannerie and Counter-Revolution, Part 1 written by Maurice Hutt and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1983-01-01 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chouannerie had its origins in the rifts which opened in Breton society during the French Revolution. Mounting resistance to the Republicans led to a civil war whose bitterness was exacerbated by the involvement of outsiders; for Chouannerie offered a chance of bringing down the Republic. That was the aim of count Joseph de Puisaye; of the British government, yet again at war with the French; and of the Bourbon Princes in exile, who nevertheless feared that the insurgents in Brittany might prove too independent, and that their perfidious allies in Britain be more dangerous than useful. This carefully documented study sifts the legends and unravels the misrepresentations which have been transmitted by royalist Whites and republican Blues. This has entailed the extensive use of a mass of archival material, much of which is being systematically used for the first time.
Book Synopsis Literature and Painting in Quebec by : William J. Berg
Download or read book Literature and Painting in Quebec written by William J. Berg and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique study explores how Quebec's landscapes have been represented in both literature and visual art throughout the centuries, from the writing of early explorers such as Cartier and Champlain to work by prominent contemporary authors and artists from the province. William J. Berg traces recurrent images and themes within these creations through the most significant periods in the development of a Quebecois identity that was threatened initially by the wilderness and indigenous populations, and later by the dominance of British and American influences. Focusing on the interplay between nature and culture in landscape representation, Literature and Painting in Quebec contends that both have reflected and fashioned the meaning of French-Canadian nationhood. As such, Literature and Painting in Quebec presents a new perspective to approach the notion of national identity, a quest that few groups have engaged in more persistently than the Quebecois.

Download or read book Beauvoir in Time written by Meryl Altman and published by Value Inquiry Book. This book was released on 2020 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Beauvoir in Time situates Simone de Beauvoir's The Second Sex in the historical context of its writing and in later contexts of its international reception, from then till now. The book takes up three aspects of Beauvoir's work more recent feminists find embarrassing: "bad sex," "dated" views about lesbians, and intersections with race and class. Through close reading of her writing in many genres, alongside contemporaneous discourses (good and bad novels in French and English, outmoded psychoanalytic and sexological authorities, ethnographic surrealism, the writing of Richard Wright and Franz Fanon), and in light of her travels to the U.S. and China, the author uncovers insights more recent feminist methodologies obscure, showing Beauvoir is still good to think with today"--
Book Synopsis The Violence of Modernity by : Debarati Sanyal
Download or read book The Violence of Modernity written by Debarati Sanyal and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Violence of Modernity turns to Charles Baudelaire, one of the most canonical figures of literary modernism, in order to reclaim an aesthetic legacy for ethical inquiry and historical critique. Works of modern literature are commonly theorized as symptomatic responses to the trauma of history. In a climate that tends to privilege crisis over critique, Debarati Sanyal argues that it is urgent to rethink literary experience in terms that recall its contestatory potential. Examining Baudelaire's poems afresh, she shifts the focus of critical attention toward an account of modernism as an active engagement with violence, specifically the violence of history in nineteenth-century France. Sanyal analyzes a literary current that uses the traditional hallmarks of modernism—irony, intertextuality, self-reflexivity, and formalism—to challenge the historical violence of modernity. Baudelaire and the committed ironists writing in his wake teach us how to read and resist the violence of history, and thereby to challenge the melancholy tenor of our contemporary "wound culture." In a series of provocative readings, Sanyal presents Baudelaire's poetry as an aesthetic form that contests historical violence through rhetorical strategies of complicity, counterviolence, and critique. The book develops a new account of Baudelaire's significance as a modernist by dislodging him both from his traditional status as a practitioner of "art for art's sake" and from his more recent incarnation as the poet of trauma. Following her extended analysis of Baudelaire's poetry, Sanyal in later chapters considers a number of authors influenced by his strategies—including Rachilde, Virginie Despentes, Albert Camus, and Jean-Paul Sartre—to examine the relevance of their interventions for our current climate of trauma and terror. The result is a study that underscores how Baudelaire's legacy continues to energize literary engagements with the violence of modernity.
