Book B  tail humain

    Book Details:
  • Author : André Baudrit
  • Publisher : Connaissances et Savoirs
  • Release : 2008
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 424 pages

Download or read book B tail humain written by André Baudrit and published by Connaissances et Savoirs. This book was released on 2008 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La réédition de cette étude ancienne est nécessaire au regard de la persistance, en 2008, des pratiques esclavagistes et de la traite humaine en Asie du Sud-Est et en Extrême-Orient, particulièrement au Vietnam et en Chine: loin d'avoir disparu, le commerce des femmes et des enfants reste en effet d'une triste actualité dans ces régions, selon quasiment les mêmes termes, lieux, techniques que ceux décrits par André Baudrit dans son ouvrage pionnier. Ce recueil de textes offre l'éclairage diachronique qui manque à la plupart des études actuelles sur ces questions fondamentales de l'esclavage et de la traite des femmes et enfants, illustrant, à l'intention des agences gouvernementales et internationales et des organisations non-gouvernementales concernées, l'importance de la prise en compte de l'histoire pour appréhender de tels phénomènes dans leur complexe globalité. Ce, dans le but de proposer un jour des réponses plus adéquates, adaptées et utiles. Ces documents inestimables, très mal diffusés à l'époque de leur parution, restent presque inconnus du public international actuel, y compris des scientifiques. Ainsi, le texte d'André Baudrit, d'abord édité comme article dans une revue savante d'Indochine, disparue, fut publié en livre à Saigon, mais en pleine Seconde Guerre mondiale, laquelle, en rendant les échanges internationaux impossibles, l'enterra. La nouvelle mise à disposition de ces textes rares équivaut donc, pour ces raisons, à une première édition.

Book Mani  res de penser dans l   Antiquit   m  diterran  enne et orientale

Download or read book Mani res de penser dans l Antiquit m diterran enne et orientale written by Christophe Batsch and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009-06-02 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Francis Schmidt's works in various fields of religious studies (mainly ancient Judaism), can be characterized by three words: historiography, anthropological history, and comparatism. In that respect he placed himself in the continuation of previous French scholars, such as Maurice Halbwachs or Pierre Vidal-Naquet. Francis Schmidt also played an essential role in transmitting to a new generation of scholars the complex issues and debates concerning the Dead Sea scrolls and Qumranic research. The papers offered in this volume share all the same interest in ancient religions and the methodological devices previously mentioned. They offer a rare example of a large comparatism between Assyrian, Greek, Roman, Jewish, and Christian approaches of some essential social or intellectual issues, by some of the most competent specialists in each field.

Book Les savoirs d Apul  e

Download or read book Les savoirs d Apul e written by Emmanuel Plantade and published by Georg Olms Verlag. This book was released on 2018-02-01 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce livre remet au premier plan la question des savoirs d’Apulée, actuellement considéré comme un simple sophiste. Les auteurs y envisagent une variété de savoirs pratiques, spirituels et intertextuels que mobilise le Madaurensis dans l’idée qu’ils peuvent aider à éclairer son projet. Ainsi, la polymathia qu’on lui prête pourrait-elle correspondre chez lui à un authentique désir de connaissance et de sagesse, suffisant à justifier le titre de philosophus ? Ne pourrait-on voir le Madaurensis comme un nouvel Ulysse, revenant en Afrique après avoir fait sienne la polytropia du héros d’Homère, et mobilisant les savoirs méditerranéens pour leur donner un nouveau sens ? This book brings back to the fore the array of knowledge that Apuleius, currently considered a mere sophist, used to approach. In an attempt to help enlighten his project, the authors of this volume consider a variety of practical, spiritual and intertextual skills and knowledge mobilized by the Madaurensis, asking whether the polymathia, which is ascribed to him, could correspond to a genuine desire for knowledge and wisdom, and be sufficient to justify the title of philosophus? Could we not see the Madaurensis as a new Ulysses, returning to Africa after having adopted the polytropia of Homer’s hero, and mobilizing Mediterranean knowledge to give it a new meaning?

Book Latin Inscriptions in the Kelsey Museum

Download or read book Latin Inscriptions in the Kelsey Museum written by Steven Tuck and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2010-03-23 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Latin inscriptions in the Kelsey Museum are among the best primary sources we have for documenting the lives of the lower classes in the Roman world. They provide unique evidence of the details of Roman daily life, including beliefs, occupations, families, and attitudes toward death. The 400 entries in this volume include all of the Latin inscriptions on stone or metal in the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology at the University of Michigan; they represent the largest, and arguably the most important, collection of Latin inscriptions in the Western Hemisphere. The collection is notable not just for its size but for the fact that almost all the inscriptions were acquired by purchase for their scholarly and educational value to the members of the university community. Because of this, the collection is also an important testimony to a seminal phase in the development of the study of Classics at the University of Michigan. For the first time ever, this project makes the Latin inscriptions of the Kelsey available in one volume and has provided an opportunity to reexamine some texts that have not been edited in over a century. The commentaries for this edition have benefited from a wealth of recent scholarship resulting in some amended readings and reidentification of texts. Steven L. Tuck is Assistant Professor of Classics at Miami University of Ohio. The Kelsey Museum Studies series, edited by University of Michigan professors Elaine Gazda, Margaret Cool Root, and John Pedley, is designed to publish unusual material in the Museum's collections, together with reports of current and past archaeological expeditions sponsored by the University of Michigan.

Book Black Morocco

    Book Details:
  • Author : Chouki El Hamel
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2014-02-27
  • ISBN : 1139620045
  • Pages : 534 pages

Download or read book Black Morocco written by Chouki El Hamel and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-02-27 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black Morocco: A History of Slavery, Race, and Islam chronicles the experiences, identity and achievements of enslaved black people in Morocco from the sixteenth century to the beginning of the twentieth century. Chouki El Hamel argues that we cannot rely solely on Islamic ideology as the key to explain social relations and particularly the history of black slavery in the Muslim world, for this viewpoint yields an inaccurate historical record of the people, institutions and social practices of slavery in Northwest Africa. El Hamel focuses on black Moroccans' collective experience beginning with their enslavement to serve as the loyal army of the Sultan Isma'il. By the time the Sultan died in 1727, they had become a political force, making and unmaking rulers well into the nineteenth century. The emphasis on the political history of the black army is augmented by a close examination of the continuity of black Moroccan identity through the musical and cultural practices of the Gnawa.

Book Romanization in the Time of Augustus

Download or read book Romanization in the Time of Augustus written by Ramsay MacMullen and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the lifetime of Augustus (from 63 B.C. to A.D. 14), Roman civilization spread at a remarkable rate throughout the ancient world, influencing such areas as art and architecture, religion, law, local speech, city design, clothing, and leisure and family activities. In his newest book, Ramsay MacMullen investigates why the adoption of Roman ways was so prevalent during this period.Drawing largely on archaeological sources, MacMullen discovers that during this period more than half a million Roman veterans were resettled in colonies overseas, and an additional hundred or more urban centers in the provinces took on normal Italian-Roman town constitutions. Great sums of expendable wealth came into the hands of ambitious Roman and local notables, some of which was spent in establishing and advertising Roman ways. MacMullen argues that acculturation of the ancient world was due not to cultural imperialism on the part of the conquerors but to eagerness of imitation among the conquered, and that the Romans were able to respond with surprisingly effective techniques of mass production and standardization.

Book Salvator Rosa in French Literature

Download or read book Salvator Rosa in French Literature written by James Patty and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2005-01-31 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Salvator Rosa (1615–1673) was a colorful and controversial Italian painter, talented musician, a notable comic actor, a prolific correspondent, and a successful satirist and poet. His paintings, especially his rugged landscapes and their evocation of the sublime, appealed to Romantic writers, and his work was highly influential on several generations of European writers. James S. Patty analyzes Rosa’s tremendous influence on French writers, chiefly those of the nineteenth century, such as Stendhal, Honoré de Balzac, Victor Hugo, George Sand, and Théophile Gautier. Arranged in chronological order, with numerous quotations from French fiction, poetry, drama, art criticism, art history, literary history, and reference works, Salvator Rosa in French Literature forms a narrative account of the reception of Rosa’s life and work in the world of French letters. James S. Patty, professor emeritus of French at Vanderbilt University, is the author of Dürer in French Letters . He lives in Nashville, Tennessee.
