Book excerpt: The novel Cassonade presents a vivid historical reality within a fictional narrative that portrays conflict in a tumultuous third world country. During the 1960's a baby was conceived in Port-au-Prince, Haiti to a young street orphan. As a child, she was given the magical power of the occult. It is this power that De'file'e JonVerat will one day call upon to destroy a corrupt "President for Life." The story transitions to the 1990's when a grown Dee JonVerat becomes involved with Matthew James, a young American who is fleeing the expectations of his wealthy family. In her quest to save the street children of Haiti from a life of incarceration, Dee attempts to lure the validation of a white man into a dark world in which he knows nothing about. With no one to trust, Matthew is confused by what is real and what is surreal. His confusion is complicated by the unwanted assistance from the American Embassy that supports a corrupt government as it panders after the wealth tourism will bring to Haiti. An American diplomat attempts to convince Matthew that everything he has witnessed is not real, but only an elaborate scheme to gain his support. Detained in a Haitian prison with nowhere to turn, Matthew must decide between the empathy in his heart or the logic of his mind. Four young street orphans, a wise old Haitian man, and an expatriate each contribute to this story, providing their own idiosyncrasies that complicate the plot and affect the outcome.

Download or read book Lexique Syntaxe et Lexique Grammaire Syntax Lexis Lexicon Grammar written by Christian Leclère and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2004-07-29 with total page 683 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maurice Gross, who died in December 2001, was a pioneer and leading thinker in the field of modern linguistics. Long before computers could facilitate large-scale, lexically-based language study, he and his team began building an exhaustive, empirically-based inventory of the "lexicon-grammar" of French which, thirty years later, still remains the most complete syntax-based lexicon available. Researchers all over the world have adopted the Gross model of description, which serves as a computational model for any language. As can be seen in the contributions in this volume, it has been applied to languages as different as Arabic, Chinese, English, Greek or Korean (as well as the major Romance languages, of course). In this volume the reader will also find a number of articles by eminent linguists who were close friends of Maurice Gross, and frequently in dialogue with him on linguistic issues. No matter whether they shared his theoretical views, or his particular empirical methods of description, they each had great respect for his work, especially for the close-grained linguistic analysis which has set a benchmark for future generations.

Download or read book Comics in French written by Laurence Grove and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whereas in English-speaking countries comics are for children or adults ‘who should know better’, in France and Belgium the form is recognized as the ‘Ninth Art’ and follows in the path of poetry, architecture, painting and cinema. The bande dessinée [comic strip] has its own national institutions, regularly obtains front-page coverage and has received the accolades of statesmen from De Gaulle onwards. On the way to providing a comprehensive introduction to the most francophone of cultural phenomena, this book considers national specificity as relevant to an anglophone reader, whilst exploring related issues such as text/image expression, historical precedents and sociological implication. To do so it presents and analyses priceless manuscripts, a Franco- American rodent, Nazi propaganda, a museum-piece urinal, intellectual gay porn and a prehistoric warrior who's really Zinedine Zidane.
