Download or read book Vies Dans L'Ombre Avec J. Krishnamurti written by Radha Rajagopal Sloss and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012-01-17 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Durant sa longue existence, le penseur religieux J. Krishnamurti (1895-1986) a conquis l'esprit de millions de gens à travers l'Europe, l'Inde, l'Australie et l'Amérique du Nord. Disparu en 1986, il reste pour beaucoup une référence centrale dans les mouvements de libération spirituelle qui ont fleuri au XXe siècle. Parmi les nombreuses biographies qui lui ont été consacrées, celle qu'a écrite Radha Sloss occupe une place tout à fait à part qu'elle est sûre de conserver compte tenu de l'exceptionnelle qualité des souvenirs sur lesquels elle est basée: ceux de l'auteur, fille adoptive de Krishnamurti, ceux de son père ensuite, Desikacharya Rajagopal (dit Raja), meilleur ami et plus proche collaborateur de Krishnamurti pendant plus de quarante ans, et ceux de sa mère enfin, Rosalind, l'âme de leur foyer commun. Qu'est-ce que c'était que vivre avec Krishnamurti, et non pas seulement assister à ses conférences ou participer à des causeries avec lui, mais également partager sa vie de tous les jours, jouer avec lui et faire l'expérience de son inépuisable gentillesse avec les enfants et les animaux, contempler un ciel étoilé en sa compagnie. L'écouter évoquer sa propre enfance en Inde et la figure vénérée de sa mère trop tôt disparue. Faire grâce à lui la connaissance de personnages aussi intéressants qu'Aldous Huxley... Ecouter encore, de la bouche des autres adultes de son entourage, ces histoires extraordinaires: la création de la Société Théosophique, la sélection de Krishnamurti à l'âge de 15 ans par les Théosophes C.W. Leadbeater et Annie Besant pour servir de «véhicule» (moyen d'incarnation) à Lord Maitreya, l'accession de Krishnamurti à une indépendance spirituelle iconoclaste une vingtaine d'années plus tard. Avec talent, l'auteur nous raconte aussi, et c'est la partie dramatique de son livre-témoignage, comment, après avoir formé une véritable famille admirée pour son harmonie, Krishnamurti et ses parents ont été amenés à «divorcer». «Comment des idéaux de fraternité humaine, de renoncement à la violence contre toute créature, de libération de la peur, de l'ambition et de la culpabilité, comment des idéaux d'une telle élévation ont-ils pu dégénérer en une telle discorde ?» Vies dans l'Ombre avec J. Krishnamurti est à la fois une biographie non autorisée du philosophe religieux, une autobiographie où l'auteur revit avec nous sa merveilleuse enfance auprès de celui-ci et un réquisitoire affectueux mais sans concession contre le Krishnamurti des années 1960-80. Un document unique sur un guide spirituel de premier plan et un témoignage profondément émouvant.

Book excerpt: L'étude de la carrière d'un scribe de la littérature des voyages permet de mieux comprendre quels étaient les enjeux de la composition d'un récit de voyage à la fin de la Renaissance. Depuis la transcription des mémoires des voyageurs jusqu'à l'édition finale de l'imprimé, Pierre Bergeron a façonné les témoignages de Pyrard, Mocquet et Le Blanc afin de les rendre publiables. La récriture des récits de voyages répond en partie à un objectif militant, fondant une rhétorique de la propagande coloniale, sans toutefois s'y réduire. Entre l'enquête objective et le témoignage romanesque, les récits remaniés par Pierre Bergeron sont une source d'information scientifique mais aussi de divertissement pour les curieux. Analyser les pratiques éditoriales de Pierre Bergeron aide en définitive à mieux comprendre la culture scientifique et littéraire de la fin de la Renaissance.

This book was released on 2011-02-24 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of chansons printed in various collections between 1529 and 1543 by Pierre Attaingnant, the inventor of single-impression printing. the arrangement of chansons for lute or keyboard was an important source of instrumental music in the sixteenth century. the chansons in the present anthology, the fruits of a particularly rich period in French music, are modern arrangements for guitar or lute made in accordance with procedures found in French prints of the time. the musical styles range from the serious, imitative Franco-Flemish chanson of northern composers to the charming, light-hearted, and often ribald chansons that furnished musical entertainment in early sixteenth-century Paris. Although the arrangements are instrumental, text translations are furnished to aid in interpretation of the music and to amuse the modern reader as they amused the listener in the 1530s and 1540s. Standard notation only.

Download or read book Toward a New Poetics written by Serge Gavronsky and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1994-12-01 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A quiet revolution is taking place in avant-garde French poetry and prose. In this collection of twelve interviews with some of France's most important poets and writers, Serge Gavronsky introduces American readers to these exciting new developments. As Gavronsky explains, a neolyricism is now replacing the formalism of the 1960s, '70s, and '80s. In his substantial introduction, Gavronsky notes how the ideological definition of writing (écriture) has given way to more open forms of writing. Human experiences of the most ordinary kinds are finding a place in the text. These interviews offer a view of the poets' and writers' creative processes and range over such topics as current literary theory, the impact of American poetry in France, and the place of feminism in contemporary French writing. Each interview is accompanied by samples of the writer's work in French and in Gavronsky's English translations. Toward a New Poetics provides a highly informative cultural and critical perspective on contemporary writing in France, introducing us to works which are now transforming the idea of literature itself.

Download or read book Knights, Lords, and Ladies written by John W. Baldwin and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2019-10-04 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the beginning of the twelfth century, the region around Paris had a reputation for being the land of unruly aristocrats. Entrenched within their castles, the nobles were viewed as quarrelling among themselves, terrorizing the countryside, harassing churchmen and peasants, pillaging, and committing unspeakable atrocities. By the end of the century, during the reign of Philip Augustus, the situation was dramatically different. The king had created the principal governmental organs of the Capetian monarchy and replaced the feudal magnates at the royal court with loyal men of lesser rank. The major castles had been subdued and peace reigned throughout the countryside. The aristocratic families remain the same, but no longer brigands, they had now been recruited for royal service. In his final book, the distinguished historian John Baldwin turned to church charters, royal inventories of fiefs and vassals, aristocratic seals and documents, vernacular texts, and archaeological evidence to create a detailed picture of the transformation of aristocratic life in the areas around Paris during the four decades of Philip Augustus's reign. Working outward from the reconstructed biographies of seventy-five individuals from thirty-three noble families, Baldwin offers a rich description of their domestic lives, their horses and war gear, their tourneys and crusades, their romantic fantasies, and their penances and apprehensions about final judgment. Knights, Lords, and Ladies argues that the aristocrats who inhabited the region of Paris over the turn of the twelfth century were important not only because they contributed to Philip Augustus's increase of royal power and to the wealth of churches and monasteries, but also for their own establishment as an elite and powerful social class.
