Et les jeunes filles

By:
Daniel Desmarquest
Type:
Book
Year:
2002
Language:
French (France)
Estimated availability:

With young girls, Kafka does not only play cat and mouse, he asks them the impossible. To seize the power he lends them and ward off the fear of approaching them, he uses with almost all a diabolical strategy that is at the heart of his literature.
From her teenage years in Prague until her death in a sanatorium near Vienna, we find here the female figures of a tormented theater: Felice, the improbable fiancee, Julie, the sacrificed, Milena, the magnificent, Dora, the last compagen, and all those who, like the unknown of the lc de Garde or Ottla, the sister and the guardian angel, have one day illuminated his life.
This book opens us to the most enigmatic part of a writer who draws his "strength" from writing in singular loves.

Book
Year:

Language:

Estimated availability:

Victor Hugo never went to the East. And yet one can not write a history of Romantic Orientalism without reserving a major place for the author of the Orientals, who for a long time remained a reference and a model for Orientalist literature, painting and music. Beyond this stroke of poetic brilliance, the whole work of Victor Hugo is haunted by the "question of the East", this question asked to the East, and to the West by the East, an opportunity to a reflection on the clashed dialogue of peoples and cultures, on Europe facing its "other", on the intimate entanglement of identity and otherness. The volumes of this collection thus propose a trip, somewhat vagabond, in the East of Victor Hugo. Oriental, illustration and music. Back to the Orientals. Delphine Gleizes is studying the illustration of the collection in the nineteenth century and Arnaud Laster, the musical adaptations that made many composers, from Wagner to Bizet, Berlioz to Liszt and many others. This last volume closes the series of works dedicated to Victor Hugo. Two CD audio recordings of works mostly unpublished disc accompany the box set of all eleven titles in the series.

Luc Ferry is the most media spokesman for humanism "à la française", which he has made a specialty. What about the theses he defends? Of his argumentative methods? The present work, which explores some philosophical questions and restores some historical facts, is hardly tender with the individual. But make no mistake: behind the character, it is indeed some prejudices of our time are questioned.

Victor Hugo et la Bible

By:

Type:
Book
Year:
2001
Language:
French (France)
Estimated availability:

Victor Hugo n'est jamais allé en Orient. Et pourtant on ne saurait écrire une histoire de l'orientalisme romantique sans réserver une place majeure à l'auteur des Orientales, demeurées longtemps une référence et un modèle pour la littérature, la peinture et la musique orientalistes. Au-delà de ce coup d'éclat poétique, l'œuvre entière de Victor Hugo est hantée par la "question d'Orient", cette question posée à l'Orient, et à l'Occident par l'Orient, occasion d'une réflexion sur le dialogue heurté des peuples et des cultures, sur l'Europe face à son "autre", sur l'intrication intime de l'identité et de l'altérité. Les volumes de cette collection proposent ainsi un voyage, quelque peu vagabond, dans l'Orient de Victor Hugo. La Bible est un texte perçu comme oriental par tout le XIXe siècle. Le poète et essayiste Henri Meschonnic, qui vient de retraduire les Psaumes, montre ici le rapport actif de Hugo à la Bible, tandis que Manako Ôno repère dans Les Misérables un certain nombre de patrons formels et thématiques du Nouveau Testament.

What is communication? An exchange with others? A dialogue with oneself? And what is it for? To exist in society? To be happier? To evolve internally? The more we try to define the act of communicating, the more we realize that it covers the very field of our lives, woven of said and unspoken that sometimes go back very far and keep questioning us. Jacques Salome, the author among others of Happy communicates, has gathered the opinions of his friends specializing in the subject.
With fervor, they transmit to us the secrets of this exchange which could become communion.

La violence a la télé vision

Estimated availability:

The drift of violence in our democratic republican society attached to freedom is a relatively recent phenomenon, manifested in one of the main vectors of culture and communication of our society, namely television.

This mission was concretized through the work of a commission of 36 personalities representing the media, education, medicine and law who auditioned directors, broadcasters, leaders of associations ... knowing the effects destroyers of violence.

The evaluation shows the impact of the broadcasting of violent shows on the behavior of the youngest

The analysis makes it possible to define the violence of a show and the criteria for evaluating violent performances

The proposals are based on a pact of freedom and responsibility between the State, the directors, the broadcasters, the families, the educators. Pornography must be out of the reach of children, the film classification commission must be reorganized with standards close to the European average, the CSA must see its missions strengthened. This is complemented by an educational component and a legislative component.

In the fall of 1913, Marcel Proust published Swann's The Side of Swann, the first volume of In Search of Lost Time, whose publication, partly posthumously, ran until 1927. We remember that the manuscript had been refused by André Gide, who admitted to having made a serious mistake and gave a penetrating reading of the Recherche in 1921: "Proust is someone whose gaze is infinitely more subtle and attentive than ours, and who This look lends us all the time we read it. And as the things he looks at are the most natural in the world, he always seems to us, reading it, that it is in us that he allows us to see; by him all the confusion of our being comes out of chaos, becomes conscious and we imagine ourselves having experienced this detail ourselves, we recognize it, we adopt it, and it is all our past that this profusion enriches. The work of genius is that which "resists". It gives one to think of all approaches, just as the joy of the literary genius in which Proust lodged his dearest wish is renewed: "Happy are the books like cliffs where the centuries, still beating there, are still gnawing. "

Nancy Huston raises the challenge of theorizing exile with humor and vivacity. She recounts her learning of the French language and culture, her coming to Europe, her pleasures and her friends ... The author has this quality of making the particular, the anecdotal universal. With simplicity and accuracy, Nancy Huston speaks of this hybrid being: the writer-divided. Neither rooted nor uprooted nor sedentary nor nomadic, the exile goes in search of his identity, his "true self", of any point of reference, this lost North.

Estimated availability:

Following the massive success of THE ART OF HAPPINESS, the Dalai Lama & Howard Cutler now bring their bestselling message to our working lives. Of the many Dalai Lama titles on sale, THE ART OF HAPPINESS - written with western psychiatrist Howard Cutler - is by far the biggest bestseller of them all. A huge international success, it has sold over 2 million copies worldwide, with nearly 300,000 of these in the UK alone. Now, this inspirational new book brings the successful East-meets-West pairing together again to provide a practical application of Tibetan Buddhist spiritual values to the world of work. In this wise and practical book, the Dalai Lama shows us how to place our working lives into the context of our lives as a whole. Rather than striving to find a role which suits us, we should allow our work to arise naturally from who we are - and what is most important to us. From here we reach a pathway that can lead us to true life fulfilment and purpose.
