Book excerpt: What does 'the law' look like? While numerous attempts have been made to examine law and legal action in terms of its language, little has yet been written that considers how visual images of the law influence its interpretation and execution in ways not discernible from written texts. This groundbreaking collection focuses on images in law, featuring contributions that show and discuss the perception of the legal universe on a theoretical basis or when dealing with visual semiotics (dress, ceremony, technology, etc.). It also examines 'language in action', analyzing jury instructions, police directives, and how imagery is used in conjunction with contentious social and political issues within a country, such as the image of family in Ireland or the image of racism in France.

Download or read book Accessories to Modernity written by Susan Hiner and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2011-06-06 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accessories to Modernity explores the ways in which feminine fashion accessories, such as cashmere shawls, parasols, fans, and handbags, became essential instruments in the bourgeois idealization of womanhood in nineteenth-century France. Considering how these fashionable objects were portrayed in fashion journals and illustrations, as well as fiction, the book explores the histories and cultural weight of the objects themselves and offers fresh readings of works by Balzac, Flaubert, and Zola, some of the most widely read novels of the period. As social boundaries were becoming more and more fluid in the nineteenth century, one effort to impose order over the looming confusion came, in the case of women, through fashion, and the fashion accessory thus became an ever more crucial tool through which social distinction could be created, projected, and maintained. Looking through the lens of fashion, Susan Hiner explores the interplay of imperialist expansion and domestic rituals, the assertion of privilege in the face of increasing social mobility, gendering practices and their relation to social hierarchies, and the rise of commodity culture and woman's paradoxical status as both consumer and object within it. Through her close focus on these luxury objects, Hiner reframes the feminine fashion accessory as a key symbol of modernity that bridges the erotic and proper, the domestic and exotic, and mass production and the work of art while making a larger claim about the "accessory" status—in terms of both complicity and subordination—of bourgeois women in nineteenth-century France. Women were not simply passive bystanders but rather were themselves accessories to the work of modernity from which they were ostensibly excluded.

Download or read book Louis Hémon, traqué par son destin written by Bernard Courteau and published by Osmora Incorporated. This book was released on 2014-08-29 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Louis Hémon, l’auteur de Maria Chapdelaine, est mort le 8 juillet 1913, frappé par un train à peu de distance du village de Chapleau, en Ontario; et tous, sans exception, ont conclu que cette mort avait été accidentelle ou en ont accepté aveuglément la thèse. Tous, sauf un! En effet, Jacques Ferron, en 1972, dans sa préface à l’édition canadienne de Colin-Maillard, un autre roman de Louis Hémon, mettait en doute ce verdict expéditif et cette unanimité suspecte. Plusieurs arguments avaient pourtant été avancés pour expliquer cet « accident », dont le fait que Louis Hémon aurait été sourd et qu’il n’aurait pas entendu venir le train. Mais il avait un compagnon, qui était mort en même temps que lui, frappé par le même train. Était-il possible que tous les deux aient été sourds, alors qu’ils venaient tout juste de parler avec des gens qui n’en avaient rien remarqué? La publication des œuvres complètes de Louis Hémon, au cours des années 1990, en plus de nous donner accès à ce qu’il révèle de lui-même, a permis de tisser des liens nouveaux entre ce qui, jusqu’à ce jour, était, d’une part, l’énigme de sa vie et le mystère de sa mort, et d’autre part, les faits et témoignages de ceux qui l’avaient côtoyé et les dépositions contenues dans les différents rapports des commissions d’enquête chargées de faire la lumière sur ces morts suspectes. De sorte qu’il s’avère maintenant que Louis Hémon, loin d’être l’apôtre du terroir et l’ardent défenseur des valeurs traditionnelles, ainsi qu’on a voulu le dépeindre, s’est plutôt révélé, à travers ses œuvres, être un homme déçu et lancé dans la vaine recherche de son identité, traqué par son destin, et sa vie ne fut qu’une lente descente aux enfers, dont ce livre raconte le troublant et tragique récit.

Download or read book Le Mythe Du Sale Boche written by Benton L. Bradberry and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2018-07-17 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comme l’indique le titre, Le mythe du sale boche, les Allemands ne sont pas les ultimes « vilains » de l’histoire. Ils ne sont pas non plus, comme le veut la version officielle, les saboteurs de la paix européenne et la cause des deux Guerres mondiales du siècle dernier. Les atrocités qu’ils auraient soi-disant perpétrées durant ces conflits armés furent inventées de toute pièce par la propagande alliée afin d’obtenir l'appui de l'opinion publique. La propagande de la Shoah, qui est apparue après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, a par ailleurs grandement contribué à consolider cette haine du « sale boche ». Mais cette version officielle de l’histoire est-elle véridique ? L'Allemagne est-elle réellement l'incarnation du mal absolu ? Dans ce livre, l'auteur brosse un tableau différent. Il explique en effet que l'Allemagne n'était la cause ni de la Première ni de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, mais dans les deux cas, la victime de l’agression des alliés. L'instabilité engendrée par la guerre 14-18 a permis à la révolution bolchévique russe de 1917 d’éclater, ce qui a apporté au monde le communisme. Or, Hitler et l'Allemagne ont tout de suite compris que le communisme international, de sa base en Union soviétique, était une menace existentielle non seulement pour l'Occident, mais pour toute la civilisation chrétienne. L'Allemagne hitlérienne a dès lors amorcé une lutte à mort contre cette idéologie sanguinaire. Loin d'être le saboteur de la paix européenne, l'Allemagne, en s’érigeant en rempart, a donc empêché la révolution bolchévique de s’étendre à toute l'Europe. Il est dommage que les alliés n'aient pas vu la Russie communiste sous le même jour que l’Allemagne. Cette alliance entre les pays occidentaux et le communisme a eu des conséquences désastreuses sur la civilisation occidentale chrétienne. L'auteur se dit convaincu que la France, la Grande-Bretagne et les États-Unis se sont battus du mauvais côté.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1921 David Ross McCord (1844-1930) founded the McCord Museum of Canadian History, which first opened in the Jessie Joseph House of McGill University. McCord's ancestors had come from Ireland to settle in Canada after the Seven Years War. Although they were initially merchants, by the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries the McCords derived most of their wealth from the management of seigneurial land and from the subdivision of Temple Grove, their mountain estate which covered the area now bounded by Côte des Neiges Road and Cedar Avenue. This record of the McCords and their interest in religion, education and science reflect the intellectual trends of the era. David Ross McCord sought to collect in the broadest and most objective manner, and his pursuit of his dream to create a national museum of Canadian history provides valuable insight into the evolution of Montreal.
