Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les paysans furent sur eux comme l'éclair. Des nègres dévalaient de partout, machette à la main, certains même armés des deux mains, machette et couteau. Personne n'eut le temps de tirer, encore moins de mettre baïonnette au canon. Le capitaine prit un coup de sabre sur le bras, hurla, lâcha sa mitraillette, se recula vivement, dégaina en jurant, de la main gauche, son pistolet. Le sang coulait de sa blessure. Un macoute, devant lui, s'écroulait, le crâne fendu d'un coup de machette. Erilien para de justesse, du fusil, un coup de machette, esquiva un coup de couteau. La bagarre était générale, machettes contre crosses de fusil. Des paysans dévalaient toujours en criant comme des démons. Un autre homme s'écroula en hurlant, le ventre ouvert par un coup de couteau. Puis un autre, pratiquement décapité par un revers de machette. Les macoutes lâchèrent pied. Ça gueulait de partout. Le regard d'Erilien croisa celui du petit capitaine, dont le pistolet fumait et dont le bras droit saignait toujours. -- Foutons le camp!
Download or read book Andr T chin written by William Marshall and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2007-07-15 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first full-length monograph in English about one of France's most important contemporary filmmakers, perhaps best known in the English-speaking world for his award-winning Les Roseaux sauvages/Wild Reeds of 1994. This study locates André Téchiné within historical and cultural contexts that include the Algerian War, May 1968 and contemporary globalization, and the influence of Roland Barthes, Bertolt Brecht, Ingmar Bergman, William Faulkner, and the cinematic French New Wave. The originality of Téchiné's sixteen feature films lies in his subtle exploration of sexuality and national identity, as he challenges expectations in his depictions of gay relations, the North African dimensions of contemporary French culture, and the center-periphery relationship between Paris and especially his native southwest.
Download or read book Chaos in the Heavens written by Jean-Baptiste Fressoz and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2024-03-12 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If you want to understand the long path to the climate crisis, read this book." –Deborah Coen, Professor of History and the History of Science and Medicine, Yale University Politicians and scientists have debated climate change for centuries in times of rapid change Nothing could seem more contemporary than climate change. Yet, in Chaos in the Heavens, Jean-Baptiste Fressoz and Fabien Locher show that we have been thinking about and debating the consequences of our actions upon the environment for centuries. The subject was raised wherever history accelerated: by the Conquistadors in the New World, by the French revolutionaries of 1789, by the scientists and politicians of the nineteenth century, by the European imperialists in Asia and Africa until the Second World War. Climate change was at the heart of fundamental debates about colonisation, God, the state, nature, and capitalism. From these intellectual and political battles emerged key concepts of contemporary environmental science and policy. For a brief interlude, science and industry instilled in us the reassuring illusion of an impassive climate. But, in the age of global warming, we must, once again, confront the chaos in the heavens.
