Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nous les utilisons tous les jours, elles pimentent notre langue et lui donnent une saveur unique... vous l'aurez deviné, ce sont les expressions ! Qu'elles soient idiomatiques, historiques ou populaires, elles n'ont de cesse de s'inviter dans nos conversations : quand certains ont tendance à mettre la charrue avant les boeufs, d'autres sont les premiers à prendre leurs jambes à leur cou... Pour d'autres encore, le lundi, c'est raviolis ! Mais d'où viennent ces formules souvent fantaisistes ? Quelle est leur origine ? Ce livre vous propose un voyage au pays des expressions : vous y croiserez certains grands classiques - tous les chemins mènent à Rome, avoir les yeux plus gros que le ventre - mais vous sortirez aussi des sentiers battus et remonterez le temps : faire florès, attacher le grelot, être en carmagnole, autant d'expressions qui ont fait notre histoire et qui méritent d'être redécouvertes. Ce voyage se poursuivra à travers la France avec les expressions les plus cocasses de nos régions, comme avoir la pépie et faire chabrot ! Et pour rester dans le vent, nous ferons le point sur les expressions branchées à connaître absolument pour ne pas paraître «chelou» !

Mettre la puce à l'oreille, donner sa langue au chat, faire les quatre-cents coups... Nous utilisons ces expressions quotidiennement. Mais saviez-vous qu'à l'origine, la puce à l'oreille avait le sens de " démangeaisons amoureuses " ? Qu'avant de la donner au chat, on " jetait sa langue au chien " ? Que les quatre-cents coups font référence aux quatre-cents coups de canon tiré sur la ville de Montauban pour contraindre ses habitants à renoncer au protestantisme ? Qu'elles soient idiomatiques, régionales, argotiques, d'hier ou d'aujourd'hui... elles sont toutes analysées pour vous donner leur origine, leur sens, ancien et actuel, et, parfois, leur équivalent – souvent étrange – dans d'autres langues. Avec Les Expressions françaises pour les Nuls, tout ceci n'aura plus de secrets pour vous !

Download or read book The Bonjour Effect written by Julie Barlow and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2016-04-19 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean-Benoît Nadeau and Julie Barlow spent a decade traveling back and forth to Paris as well as living there. Yet one important lesson never seemed to sink in: how to communicate comfortably with the French, even when you speak their language. In The Bonjour Effect Jean-Benoît and Julie chronicle the lessons they learned after they returned to France to live, for a year, with their twin daughters. They offer up all the lessons they learned and explain, in a book as fizzy as a bottle of the finest French champagne, the most important aspect of all: the French don't communicate, they converse. To understand and speak French well, one must understand that French conversation runs on a set of rules that go to the heart of French culture. Why do the French like talking about "the decline of France"? Why does broaching a subject like money end all discussion? Why do the French become so aroused debating the merits and qualities of their own language? Through encounters with school principals, city hall civil servants, gas company employees, old friends and business acquaintances, Julie and Jean-Benoît explain why, culturally and historically, conversation with the French is not about communicating or being nice. It's about being interesting. After reading The Bonjour Effect, even readers with a modicum of French language ability will be able to hold their own the next time they step into a bistro on the Left Bank.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preeminent psychologist Lisa Barrett lays out how the brain constructs emotions in a way that could revolutionize psychology, health care, the legal system, and our understanding of the human mind. “Fascinating . . . A thought-provoking journey into emotion science.”—The Wall Street Journal “A singular book, remarkable for the freshness of its ideas and the boldness and clarity with which they are presented.”—Scientific American “A brilliant and original book on the science of emotion, by the deepest thinker about this topic since Darwin.”—Daniel Gilbert, best-selling author of Stumbling on Happiness The science of emotion is in the midst of a revolution on par with the discovery of relativity in physics and natural selection in biology. Leading the charge is psychologist and neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett, whose research overturns the long-standing belief that emotions are automatic, universal, and hardwired in different brain regions. Instead, Barrett shows, we construct each instance of emotion through a unique interplay of brain, body, and culture. A lucid report from the cutting edge of emotion science, How Emotions Are Made reveals the profound real-world consequences of this breakthrough for everything from neuroscience and medicine to the legal system and even national security, laying bare the immense implications of our latest and most intimate scientific revolution.

Download or read book The Secrets of an Aborted Decolonisation written by Carlson Anyangwe and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2010-10-08 with total page 808 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A remarkable feature of the collapse of the British Empire is that the British departed from almost every single one of their colonial territories invariably leaving behind a messy situation and an agenda of serious problems that in most cases still haunt those territories to this day. One such territory is the Southern British Cameroons. There, the British Government took the official view that the territory and its people were expendable. It opposed, for selfish economic reasons, sovereign statehood for the territory, in clear violation of the UN Charter and the norm of self-determination. It transferred the Southern Cameroons to a new colonial overlord and hurriedly left the territory. The British Governments bad faith, duplicity, deception, wheeling and dealing, and betrayal of the people of the Southern Cameroons is incredible and defies good sense. Ample evidence of this is provided by the declassified documents in this book. Among the material are treaties concluded by Britain with Southern Cameroons coastal Kings and Chiefs; and the boundary treaties of the Southern Cameroons, treaties defining the frontiers with Nigeria to the west and the frontier with Cameroun Republic to the east. The book contains documents that attest to the Southern Cameroons as a fully self-governing country, ready for sovereign statehood. These include debates in the Southern Cameroons House of Assembly; and the various Constitutions of the Southern Cameroons. The book also reproduces British declassified documents on the Southern Cameroons covering the three critical years from 1959 to 1961, documents which speak to the inglorious stewardship of Great Britain in the Southern Cameroons. This book removes lingering doubts in some quarters that the people of the Southern Cameroons were cheated of independence. Its contents are further evidence of their inalienable right and sacred duty to assert their independence. No one who reads this book can possibly be indifferent to the just struggle of the Southern Cameroons for sovereign statehood.

Download or read book Secrecy and Liberty: National Security, Freedom of Expression and Access to Information written by Joan Fitzpatrick and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-09-27 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tension between national security and freedom of expression and information is both acute and multifaceted. Without national security, basic human rights are always at risk. On the other hand, the tendency of governing elites to confuse `the life of the nation' with their own survival has often resulted in excessive restrictions on expression and information, as well as other fundamental rights. A proper balance between secrecy and liberty requires a vigilant press and an independent judiciary. It also requires greater clarity than currently exists as to how competing rights and interests should be weighed. This book addresses that gap. Its centerpiece is a set of Principles drafted by a group of international and national law experts, many of whom contributed chapters, to guide governments, courts and international bodies in how to strike a proper balance. The Principles have been widely endorsed, among others by United Nations experts on freedom of expression and independence of judges and lawyers. Sixteen country studies - profiling, among other states, Albania, Chile, China, Egypt, France, Germany, India, Israel, Japan, Norway, South Africa, South Korea, Turkey, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia - explore the tremendous diversity of national security doctrines and the penal and other measures aimed at suppressing allegedly secret information and speech claimed to be subversive, separatist or otherwise dangerous. Five chapters examine the cases considered and approaches taken by the UN Human Rights Committee, three regional human rights bodies, and the European Court of Justice. A Commentary draws on the other chapters to support and elucidate the Principles, noting where they reflect an existing consensus and the points at which they attempt to elicit a more rights-protective approach.
