Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A USBBY Outstanding International Books Honor Book and a nominee for the 2012 Silver Birch Express Award in the Ontario Library Association's Forest of Reading Program and the Canadian Library Association Book of the Year for Children Award In these three imaginative stories, Jan Andrews introduces us to Quebec's traditional folktale hero, Ti-Jean. He's an endearing character who is both wise and foolish, and though he does find himself in hard situations (often of his own making), in the end, he somehow manages to do what needs to be done. In "Ti-Jean and the Princess of Tomboso" he outwits a greedy princess; in "Ti-Jean the Marble Player" he gets the best of a pint-sized scoundrel; and in "How Ti-Jean Became a Fiddler" he turns the tables on a too-clever-for-her-own-good seigneur's daughter, and finds true love in the process.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originating in India, the Gypsies arrived in Europe around the 14th century, spreading not only across the entirety of the continent but also immigrating to the Americas. The first Gypsy migration included farmworkers, blacksmiths, and mercenary soldiers, as well as musicians, fortune-tellers, and entertainers. At first, they were generally welcome as an interesting diversion to the dull routine of that period. Soon, however, they attracted the antagonism of the governing powers, as they have continually done throughout the following centuries. The second edition of the Historical Dictionary of the Gypsies (Romanies) seeks to end such prejudice by clarifying the facts about this nomadic people. Through a list of acronyms, a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on significant persons, places, events, institutions, and aspects of culture, society, economy, and politics, the history of the Gypsies and their culture is told.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Par une froide et humide matinŽe de novembre, une pauvre femme, misŽrablement v�tue, Žtait assise aupr�s du lit de son enfant malade. On Žtait en 1818; l'annŽe avait ŽtŽ rude, la guerre civile avait ensanglantŽ les rues de Paris: Georges, le mari de Madeleine (c'Žtait le nom de la pauvre femme), avait ŽtŽ tuŽ derri�re une barricade, o� il dŽfendait l'Žmeute en croyant dŽfendre ses droits. Depuis cette mort fatale, la mis�re et l'abandon Žtaient entrŽs dans une famille que soutenait jusque-lˆ le travail de son chef; c'Žtait ˆ grand'peine que Madeleine avait pu louer une chambre au sixi�me Žtage dans une maison de la rue du Helder. Elle Žtait blanchisseuse en dentelles; pour garder ses pratiques, il lui fallait habiter un quartier o� tout Žtait cher; elle s'Žtait donc rŽsignŽe ˆ quitter le faubourg o� on l'avait mariŽe, o� elle avait perdu son cher Georges. En temps de rŽvolution, par malheur, on ne fait gu�re de toilette; l'ouvrage Žtait rare, dŽjˆ Madeleine Žtait en arri�re avec tous ses fournisseurs. Le boulanger avait annoncŽ qu'il arr�tait son crŽdit. Madeleine touchait au moment fatal qui perd les malheureux et fait d'une ouvri�re honn�te une mendiante, que dŽgraderont bient™t la faim et le dŽsespoir. Elle Žtait lˆ, les yeux rougis par les veilles et les larmes, regardant sa fille rongŽe par la fi�vre, cherchant en vain dans sa pensŽe comment elle trouverait pour le lendemain du travail et du pain, quand une main hardie tourna la clef de la porte et fit tressaillir la m�re et l'enfant.

Book excerpt: Hitherto undiscovered yet fundamental historical and literary texts from the Pacific provide the subject matter of this collection of essays which sets out to explore the new forms of writing and hybrid identities emerging from both past and contemporary cultural contact and exchange in the 'South Seas'. This is also a weaving of the connections between Francophone and Anglophone writers long separated by colonial history. Luis Cardoso, writing in Portuguese from East Timor offers further points of contrast. The places of encounter - the beaches of Tahiti, the retelling of the texts of oral tradition, indigenous mastery of writing and appropriation of Western technology, the construction of contemporary Pacific anthologies or emerging post-colonial writing and translation - are sites of interaction and mixing that also involve negotiations of mana or power. From Pierre Loti's mythical and feminised Tahitians to Déwé Gorodé's silenced women, the outcomes of such negotiations are dynamic and different syncretisms. Two chapters reexamine the theoretical concept of hybridity from these Pacific perspectives. Les articles publiés dans le présent recueil explorent les nouvelles formes d'écriture et les identités hybrides issues du creuset des Mers du Sud. Relativement inconnus, les textes au coeur de ces articles n'en sont pas moins les oeuvres fondatrices de la région du Pacifique Sud dont ils constituent la trame historique et littéraire. Longtemps tenus à l'écart les uns des autres par l'histoire coloniale de la région, les textes d'auteurs francophones et anglophones s'enchevêtrent et se recoupent en de multiples domaines. La reprise des textes de tradition orale, l'appropriation autochtone des technologies occidentales, la création d'anthologies contemporaines et l'émergence d'une littérature postcoloniale, sont autant de sites d'interactions et de convergence qui exigent une négociation permanente entre les pouvoirs et mana en présence. C'est une nouvelle facette du concept d'hybridité que nous proposent ces études de la région Pacifique.
