Book excerpt: En 1943, alors que la Hongrie n'est encore qu'au bord de la guerre, quatre jeunes gens - Hanna, Lili, Joseph et Gitta - décident d'installer leur atelier de décoration dans un petit village, pour y vivre une vie plus attentive à l'essentiel. Si une même faim spirituelle les rapproche, aucun d'entre eux, pourtant, n'a jamais pratiqué sa religion. Le jour où ils entreprennent de faire le point par écrit sur leurs problèmes personnels, Gitta se dérobe, se réfugie derrière des banalités. Hanna tout d'abord s'en irrite, puis a juste le temps de prévenir son amie - " Attention, ce n'est plus moi qui parle ! " - avant de prononcer, en toute conscience, des paroles qui manifestement ne peuvent lui appartenir. Pendant dix-sept mois, des forces de Lumière - que les quatre amis appelleront " Anges " ou " Maîtres intérieurs " - s'exprimeront par la bouche d'Hanna. Dix-sept mois qui deviendront de plus en plus dramatiques : juifs tous trois, Joseph, Lili et Hanna partiront pour les camps de la mort. Seize ans plus tard, Gitta, la seule survivante, pourra enfin emporter en France les petits cahiers où avait été consigné mot par mot, lors de chaque rencontre, ce véritable " reportage sur une expérience spirituelle ". L'intégralité des Dialogues est ici présentée pour la première fois, dans une traduction revue et augmentée de nombreux commentaires par Gitta Mallasz.

Book excerpt: Un ouvrage puissant qui s'inscrit dans le prolongement du best-seller international Dialogues avec l'ange de Gitta Mallasz. Dialogues avec l'ange, le best-seller de Gitta Mallasz, est la transcription d'une expérience spirituelle vécue pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale par quatre amis hongrois. Pendant dix-sept mois, de juin 1943 à novembre 1944, Hanna Dallos transmet – au cours de 88 Entretiens – des paroles qu'elle dit ne pas émaner d'elle mais d'un maître intérieur ou d'un ange. Ces paroles sont retranscrites par Gitta Mallasz et Lili Strausz. Seule survivante, Gitta Mallasz, réfugiée en France en 1960, traduira ces entretiens en français. Ils seront publiés en 1976 et traduits en 21 langues.Dans son nouveau livre, Patricia Montaud rassemble 30 années de questions que les lecteurs des Dialogues avec l'ange ont pu lui poser. Elle leur répond en livrant avec une transparence bouleversante sa propre mise en pratique issue des réponses reçues auprès de Gitta Mallasz pendant plus de huit ans. Au fil des chapitres, on découvre un chemin concret, accessible à ceux qui cherchent à dialoguer avec leur ange, à ceux qui veulent découvrir leur véritable raison d'être sur Terre. Ce livre se lit page après page, comme un " fil rouge ", et il réenchantera la vie du lecteur.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION Dans notre existence nous ne prenons pas toujours conscience qu’il existe, au plus près de nous-même, la présence vivante d’un « être » divin personnel qui nous aime, nous protège et nous guide en toutes circonstances. Ce « double » réel, ce corps de lumière, c’est notre ange personnel, notre propre jumeau céleste. Il fait partie de nous comme nous faisons partie de lui. Il nous ouvre la Porte de la Connaissance en nous permettant de mieux nous comprendre et de faire éclore l’étincelle divine qui est au plus profond de notre être afin d’atteindre progressivement les plus hauts degrés de l’élévation spirituelle. Cet appel à « la purification et au dépassement de soi » répond à la vraie nature de l’Homme qui assure sa liberté en lui permettant de dépasser et de vaincre les épreuves de la vie quotidienne tout en faisant découvrir le vrai sens de son existence. Tout en nous laissant la faculté de penser et de croire, de nombreuses voies nous ouvrent à la Connaissance des plans supérieurs avec ou sans l’aide d’une religion, d’une doctrine ou d’une philosophie.

Book excerpt: " Attention, ce n'est plus moi qui parle ! " Par ces mots commence, dans un petit village de Hongrie, une étonnante aventure spirituelle. En 1943, au cœur de l'Europe déchirée, quatre jeunes gens - Hanna, Lili, Joseph et Gitta - décident d'installer à la campagne leur atelier de décoration. Éloignés de toute pratique religieuse, mais en quête de vérité, ils souhaitent vivre une vie plus attentive à l'essentiel. Dès lors, et durant dix-sept mois, des forces de Lumière - que les quatre amis appelleront aussi " Anges " ou " Maîtres intérieurs " - s'expriment de façon régulière par la bouche de Hanna : Attention, ce n'est plus moi qui parle ! " Ces entretiens brûlants s'achèvent tragiquement par la déportation et la mort de Joseph, Lili et Hanna, juifs tous trois ; Gitta, la seule survivante, entreprend de transcrire mot à mot les messages de l'Ange. Les petits cahiers où elle a consigné le reportage de cette expérience spirituelle donneront naissance à ce document stupéfiant que sont les Dialogues avec l'ange, publiés pour la première fois en 1976, et traduits depuis dans une quinzaine de langues. Ce volume est la version intégrale et définitive des Dialogues avec l'ange revue par Gitta Mallasz.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Gitta Mallasz et Françoise Van Aerde se sont rencontrées bien avant la parution de Dialogues avec l'Ange et une profonde amitié les lièrent. Françoise collabora à l'élaboration des Dialogues tels que je les ai vécus et accompagna Gitta dans de nombreuses conférences à Paris, Bruxelles, Douai, Lille, Genève, Lausanne, etc. Françoise resta très intimement unie à Gitta jusqu'à son décès, le 25 mai 1992. Entre 1978 et 1982, Gitta et Françoise se livrèrent à un travail de relecture de Dialogues avec l'Ange sur lesquels Gitta éclairait les interrogations de Françoise et livrait ses pensées profondes ou ses souvenirs. Au fur et à mesure de la relecture de certains passages de Dialogues avec l'Ange, la lumière se fait. Il est vrai que le langage utilisé est parfois mystérieux. L'Ange parle avec tant de révérence de Dieu que le lecteur, de sceptique qu'il pouvait encore être, entre dans la compréhension de cette exceptionnelle et authentique expérience vécue. Au travers de ces hymnes, de ces liturgies intérieures, se révèlent peu à peu les notions d'Amour et d'Eternité. " Michèle Bara

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joly's (1831-78) Dialogue aux enfers entre Machiavel et Montesquieu is the major source of one of the world's most infamous and damaging forgeries, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. That, however, was concocted some two decades after he died, and American political scientist Waggoner points to Joly's own text for evidence that he was not anti-semitic and was an intransigent enemy of the kind of tyranny the forgery served during the 1930s. He translates the text and discusses Joly's intentions in writing it and his contribution to the understanding of modern politics. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.

Book excerpt: How have we thought “the body”? How can we think it anew? The body of mortal creatures, the body politic, the body of letters and of laws, the “mystical body of Christ”—all these (and others) are incorporated in the word Corpus, the title and topic of Jean-Luc Nancy’s masterwork. Corpus is a work of literary force at once phenomenological, sociological, theological, and philosophical in its multiple orientations and approaches. In thirty-six brief sections, Nancy offers us at once an encyclopedia and a polemical program—reviewing classical takes on the “corpus” from Plato, Aristotle, and Saint Paul to Descartes, Hegel, Husserl, and Freud, while demonstrating that the mutations (technological, biological, and political) of our own culture have given rise to the need for a new understanding of the body. He not only tells the story of this cultural change but also explores the promise and responsibilities that such a new understanding entails. The long-awaited English translation is a bold, bravura rendering. To the title essay are added five closely related recent pieces—including a commentary by Antonia Birnbaum—dedicated in large part to the legacy of the “mind-body problem” formulated by Descartes and the challenge it poses to rethinking the ancient problems of the corpus. The last and most poignant of these essays is “The Intruder,” Nancy’s philosophical meditation on his heart transplant. The book also serves as the opening move in Nancy’s larger project called “The deconstruction of Christianity.”

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.

Book excerpt: "Your Mindful Compass" takes us behind the emotional curtain to see the mechanisms regulating individuals in social systems. There is great comfort and wisdom in knowing we can increase our awareness to manage the swift and ancient mechanisms of social control. We can gain greater flexibility by seeing how social controls work in systems from ants to humans. To be less controlled by others, we learn how emotional systems influence our relationship-oriented brain. People want to know what goes on in families that give rise to amazing leaders and/or terrorists. For the first time in history we can understand the systems in which we live. The social sciences have been accumulating knowledge since the early fifties as to how we are regulated by others. S. Milgram, S. Ashe, P. Zimbardo and J. Calhoun, detail the vulnerability to being duped and deceived and the difficulty of cooperating when values differ. Murray Bowen, M.D., the first researcher to observe several live-in families, for up to three years, at the National Institute of Mental Health. Describing how family members overly influence one another and distribute stress unevenly, Bowen described both how symptoms and family leaders emerge in highly stressed families. Our brain is not organized to automatically perceive that each family has an emotional system, fine-tuned by evolution and "valuing" its survival as a whole, as much as the survival of any individual. It is easier to see this emotional system function in ants or mice but not in humans. The emotional system is organized to snooker us humans: encouraging us to take sides, run away from others, to pressure others, to get sick, to blame others, and to have great difficulty in seeing our part in problems. It is hard to see that we become anxious, stressed out and even that we are difficult to deal with. But "thinking systems" can open the doors of perception, allowing us to experience the world in a different way. This book offers both coaching ideas and stories from leaders as to strategies to break out from social control by de-triangling, using paradoxes, reversals and other types of interruptions of highly linked emotional processes. Time is needed to think clearly about the automatic nature of the two against one triangle. Time and experience is required as we learn strategies to put two people together and get self outside the control of the system. In addition, it takes time to clarify and define one's principles, to know what "I" will or will not do and to be able to take a stand with others with whom we are very involved. The good news is that systems' thinking is possible for anyone. It is always possible for an individual to understand feelings and to integrate them with their more rational brains. In so doing, an individual increases his or her ability to communicate despite misunderstandings or even rejection from important others. The effort involved in creating your Mindful Compass enables us to perceive the relationship system without experiencing it's threats. The four points on the Mindful Compass are: 1) Action for Self, 2) Resistance to Forward Progress, 3) Knowledge of Social Systems and the 4) The Ability to Stand Alone. Each gives us a view of the process one enters when making an effort to define a self and build an emotional backbone. It is not easy to find our way through the social jungle. The ability to know emotional systems well enough to take a position for self and to become more differentiated is part of the natural way humans cope with pressure. Now people can use available knowledge to build an emotional backbone, by thoughtfully altering their part in the relationship system. No one knows how far one can go by making an effort to be more of a self-defined individual in relationships to others. Through increasing emotional maturity, we can find greater individual freedom at the same time that we increase our ability to cooperate and to be close to others.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book to attempt to provide a framework for analyzing disability through the ages, Henri-Jacques Stiker's now classic A History of Disability traces the history of western cultural responses to disability, from ancient times to the present. The sweep of the volume is broad; from a rereading and reinterpretation of the Oedipus myth to legislation regarding disability, Stiker proposes an analytical history that demonstrates how societies reveal themselves through their attitudes towards disability in unexpected ways. Through this history, Stiker examines a fundamental issue in contemporary Western discourse on disability: the cultural assumption that equality/sameness/similarity is always desired by those in society. He highlights the consequences of such a mindset, illustrating the intolerance of diversity and individualism that arises from placing such importance on equality. Working against this thinking, Stiker argues that difference is not only acceptable, but that it is desirable, and necessary. This new edition of the classic volume features a new foreword by David T. Mitchell and Sharon L. Snyder that assesses the impact of Stiker’s history on Disability Studies and beyond, twenty years after the book’s translation into English. The book will be of interest to scholars of disability, historians, social scientists, cultural anthropologists, and those who are intrigued by the role that culture plays in the development of language and thought surrounding people with disabilities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michelangelo was acutely conscious of living in an age of religious crisis and artistic change, and for him the two issues were related. Michelangelo and the Reform of Art explores Michelangelo's awareness of artistic tradition as a means of understanding his relation to the profound religious uncertainty of the sixteenth century. Concentrating on Michelangelo's lifelong preoccupation with the image of the dead Christ, Alexander Nagel studies the artist's associations with reform-minded circles in early sixteenth-century Italy, and reveals his sustained concern over the fate of religious art.
