Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In spite of our clever and urban modern logic, our sharp common sense of destruction and reaction versus the more gratifying construction and proactive action, we still weave talionic plots that go beyond staged tragedies and past eras. Revenge continues to be popular in fiction as in non-fictional realms. As an audience, we enjoy films and books that hail the ‘getting even’ philosophy; even our most renowned children’s stories are seeded in vindication and retribution (Hansel and Gretel, Red Riding Hood, and Snow White, just to name a few), as our television programs, targeted to a more mature audience, are intended to be (see Charmed and Scrubs, as just two successful examples). This volume provides a riveting account of the role of revenge as muse to many characters of modern literature from various national origins and of modern societies with their own embedded cultural reactions as well as a diversity of approaches to wishes of violent counterattacks. Through a plurality of literary subjects and perspectives, this publication provides an overview much needed in our libraries and bookstores. Departing from the psychological complexities in Ovid’s Metamorphoses, the contributors of this volume focus on chivalric avenges, models for violence management, and reinterpretations of the code of honor through the analysis of Hispanic, Italian, and French texts; emphasize the patient craftiness and adroit deceit of which women are capable, outmaneuvering men and their cold manipulations; provide documented incidents involving more than fictitious personages as in the case of an Italian portraitist active between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. This volume is a unique collection of topics, with a useful and practical approach to an abrasive phenomenon that remains relevant in our modern times.

Book excerpt: Voici donné, en avant-première de l'édition critique complète des quatre-vingt-sept sermons de Calvin retrouvés à Londres en 1995, un sermon de juillet 1558 sur le début du chapitre 55 d'Esaïe. Le thème de la famine spirituelle rappelle aux hommes la primauté des biens spirituels sur les nourritures terrestres et les invite à écouter une fois encore le message salutaire du Prophète. C'est pour célébrer le 450e anniversaire de l'octroi d'une charte du roi Edouard VI en faveur de la fondation d'une Eglise des réfugiés étrangers, que l'Eglise protestante française de Londres a souhaité publier ce sermon. Le texte de Calvin rassemble des thèmes centraux de la Réforme et pose un certain nombre de questions qui n'ont guère vieilli. Une traduction anglaise, des notes et un glossaire permettront à un grand nombre de lecteurs de goûter la langue désuète mais vigoureuse du Réformateur. .

Download or read book Guillaume de Machaut written by Elizabeth Eva Leach and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2014-06-12 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At once a royal secretary, a poet, and a composer, Guillaume de Machaut was one of the most protean and creative figures of the late Middle Ages. Rather than focus on a single strand of his remarkable career, Elizabeth Eva Leach gives us a book that encompasses all aspects of his work, illuminating it in a distinctively interdisciplinary light. The author provides a comprehensive picture of Machaut's artistry, reviews the documentary evidence about his life, charts the different agendas pursued by modern scholarly disciplines in their rediscovery and use of specific parts of his output, and delineates Machaut's own poetic and material presentation of his authorial persona. Leach treats Machaut's central poetic themes of hope, fortune, and death, integrating the aspect of Machaut's multimedia art that differentiates him from his contemporaries' treatment of similar thematic issues: music. In restoring the centrality of music in Machaut's poetics, arguing that his words cannot be truly understood or appreciated without the additional layers of meaning created in their musicalization, Leach makes a compelling argument that musico-literary performance occupied a special place in the courts of fourteenth-century France.
