Book excerpt: An unflinching and intelligent alternative history of the twentieth century that provides a provocative vision of Europe's past, present, and future. "[A] splendid book." —The New York Times Book Review Dark Continent provides an alternative history of the twentieth century, one in which the triumph of democracy was anything but a forgone conclusion and fascism and communism provided rival political solutions that battled and sometimes triumphed in an effort to determine the course the continent would take. Mark Mazower strips away myths that have comforted us since World War II, revealing Europe as an entity constantly engaged in a bloody project of self-invention. Here is a history not of inevitable victories and forward marches, but of narrow squeaks and unexpected twists, where townships boast a bronze of Mussolini on horseback one moment, only to melt it down and recast it as a pair of noble partisans the next.

Book excerpt: El autor aborda la estructura pictórica y escultórica y, sobre todo, la arquitectura del conocimiento y de la sociedad en la obra de Picasso, es decir, las estructuras de la tradición, de las diferencias raciales, sociales y culturales, de la lógica y de la tecnología, proponiendo nuevas vías para apreciar la oscilación entre orden y desorden en la obra de Picasso, así como la confrontación y el reto que su obra supuso respecto a las arquitecturas de la ortodoxia. Tal reto comienza con una serie de intervenciones que el artista protagonizó en la turbulenta historia europea de los primeros años veinte, que revelan su postura respecto a temas vitales como la raza, la diferencia cultural, la modernidad, la sexualidad y el descontento de la civilización.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A page-turning novel that is also an exploration of the great philosophical concepts of Western thought, Jostein Gaarder's Sophie's World has fired the imagination of readers all over the world, with more than twenty million copies in print. One day fourteen-year-old Sophie Amundsen comes home from school to find in her mailbox two notes, with one question on each: "Who are you?" and "Where does the world come from?" From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning—but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined.

Download or read book Gaulois et celtique continental written by Georges-Jean Pinault and published by Librairie Droz. This book was released on 2007 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Les connaissances sur les Gaulois et leurs langues progressent par la découverte et l’interprétation des documents épigraphiques. Le présent volume, issu d’un colloque international et pluridisciplinaire qui s’est tenu à l’université de Clermont-Ferrand, regroupe dix-neuf contributions (en français, anglais, allemand, italien, espagnol). Le livre s’articule en deux parties : la première porte sur les contextes historique, géographique et sociologique des inscriptions gauloises et gallo-romaines, ainsi que sur les données archéologiques de la découverte de la tablette de plomb de Chamalières en 1971 ; la seconde partie envisage les langues celtiques dans leurs divers aspects (phonétique, morphologie, syntaxe, onomastique, toponymie). Parmi les auteurs, certains reviennent sur des documents gaulois dont l’analyse reste controversée, et plusieurs considèrent d’autres langues qui relèvent, comme le gaulois, du celtique continental: celtibère, lépontique, etc., dont la connaissance a beaucoup progressé dans les dernières décennies. L’interprétation des faits gaulois et des autres langues celtiques du continent est enrichie constamment par la confrontation avec les données plus récentes des langues celtiques insulaires, parmi lesquelles les langues brittoniques. La dialectologie de l’ensemble de la famille celtique est placée dans des perspectives nouvelles. Par sa diversité, ce volume est susceptible d’intéresser à la fois les historiens de la Gaule et de la péninsule Ibérique dans l’Antiquité, les linguistes, comparatistes du groupe indo-européen, et les philologues spécialistes des langues celtiques."--Quatrième de couverture
Download or read book Uniting of Europe written by Ernst B. Haas and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-15 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The University of Notre Dame Press is pleased to bring Ernst Haas's classic work on European integration, The Uniting of Europe, back into print. First published in 1958 and last printed in 1968, this seminal volume is the starting point for anyone interested in the pre-history of the European Union. Haas uses the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) as a case study of the community formation processes that occur across traditional national and state boundaries. Haas points to the ECSC as an example of an organization with the "power to redirect the loyalties and expectations of political actors." In this pathbreaking book Haas contends that, based on his observations of the actual integration process, the idea of a "united Europe" took root in the years immediately following World War II. His careful and rigorous analysis tracks the development of the ECSC, including, in his 1968 preface, a discussion of the eventual loss of the individual identity of the ECSC through its absorption into the new European Community. Featuring a new introduction by Haas analyzing the impact of his book over time, as well as an updated bibliography, The Uniting of Europe is a must-have for political scientists and historians of modern and contemporary Europe. This book is the inaugural volume of Notre Dame's new Contemporary European Politics and Society Series.
