Paperback. Zustand: New. Paul-Émile Borduas had both successes and failures as he tried to express in artwork and words his vision of a generous, spontaneous, creative society. He was the catalyst for events that led to the writing of an important social and artistic manifesto, Refus global (Total Refusal, in translation with Exile Editions) published in 1948 by the movement known as Les automatistes. Jean-Philippe Warren shows us the reversals and contradictions that make up this cultural figure, renowned for both his art and his thought. How his early hopes and doubts fermented in the crucible that is the mind of a young man. And how his attempts to find a new voice reflect the changes of a society trying to come to terms with a troubling and elusive modernity. Ultimately, Warren looks to understand the path that led Borduas to adopt a pictorial approach that was a clean break with the academicism of his time. He studies a man who broke early with the Catholic religion of his childhood, and who tried to replace it with a radically different ethic. At the same time, he suggests that Borduas came from an ambiance of Catholic intellectuals and artists who shared many of his progressive views and were also critical of the church's attitude to society and art. This is a remarkable portrait of one of our greatest artists and intellectuals, and shines a new light on a crucial turning point in the history of Québec and Canada.

Softcover. Zustand: leichte Gebrauchsspuren. Da una delle figure piu misteriose e discusse del XVI secolo, quest opera e giunta fino a noi con tutto il suo carico di mistero, e ancora oggi continua ad affascinare e a stupire per la sua inquietante veridicita. Cariche di valore predittivo, Le Profezie di Nostradamus descrivono con sorprendente precisione eventi terribili e catastrofici ancora a venire, ma come ogni opera profetica, anche le criptiche quartine dell astrologo francese si offrono come strumento per realizzare una trasformazione personale. Attraverso un linguaggio straordinariamente misterioso, le immagini folgoranti e le allusioni sfuggenti delle Centurie formano un rebus che ancora affascina e si presta a diversi livelli di comprensione In italienischer Sprache. 351 pages.

Paperback. Zustand: New. This book is based on the premise that love is not as spontaneous and free as one would have us believe. While it is true that love exists in all human communities, not all communities love in the same way. The words used to speak of love, which simultaneously reveal and censor, inform and sublimate, channel and repress the stirrings of the heart, are chosen according to everchanging social and cultural norms.Love stories or romans d'amour are widely read and appreciated by all classes of society and have been continually revisited and reinvented over time. The capacity for renewal in such a rigidly codified genre is nothing short of amazing, as is the resulting diversity of content.Love Stories Now and Then is the first comprehensive survey of Quebec and French-Canadian romance novels. It tackles questions that everybody asks. What is "love at first sight"? How do class, nation, religion, and race influence the choice of partners? What are the rules of flirting? What are the limits to expressing one's desires? What are people's expectations in marriage? What is the place of sexuality and how does it differ in French and English culture in North America?This book challenges many of our assumptions about romance and offers a compelling glimpse into people's dreams and fantasies of love over the past two centuries.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Texte francais, couverture souple. État d'usage: très bon état. Alors que les soulèvements armés et les attentats continuent de survenir un peu partout dans le monde, il importe de s'interroger sur la légitimité de la violence comme forme d'intervention publique, qu'elle soit l'oeuvre des groupes militants ou celle des forces étatiques. Dans le but de préciser les enjeux fondamentaux liés à ce phénomène, cet ouvrage revient sur les décennies agitées de 1960-1970 qui, plus que toute autre période récente, permettent d'en comprendre les ressorts. En tentant de faire tomber les masques de la coercition et de l'arbitraire, les groupes révolutionnaires de l'époque ont en effet développé des stratégies singulières de mobilisation pour lutter contre les pouvoirs établis. En revenant à l'histoire de la Bande à Baader, du Sentier lumineux, des Black Panthers, de l'Armée républicaine irlandaise, du Front de libération du Québec, du Mouvement de libération du taxi ou encore des Brigades rouges, ce livre dégage l'esprit d'une période cruciale au cours de laquelle les membres de ces groupes, partisans de l'action directe, ont partagé les mêmes répertoires de la contestation, les mêmes références symboliques et une même éthique de l'engagement individuel et collectif. Le pouvoir, croyaient-ils, est au bout du fusil ! La raison du plus fort est-elle toujours la meilleure ? A lire cet ouvrage, chacun sera mieux en mesure de répondre à la maxime du fabuliste. Book.
