Download or read book Debating the Roman de la Rose written by Christine McWebb and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-08 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Around the year 1400, the poet Christine de Pizan initiated a public debate in France over the literary "truth" and merit of the Roman of the Rose, perhaps the most renowned work of the French Middle Ages. She argued against what she considered to be misrepresentations of female virtue and vice in the Rose. Her bold objections aroused the support and opposition of some of the period’s most famous intellectuals, notable Jean Gerson, whose sermons on the subject are important literary documents. "The Quarrel of the Rose" is the name given by modern scholars to the collection of these and other documents, including both poetry and letters, that offer a vivid account of this important controversy. As the first dual-language version of the "Quarrel" documents, this volume will be of great interest to medievalists and an ideal addition to the Routledge Medieval Texts series. Along with translations of the actual debate epistles, the volume includes several relevant passages from the Romance of the Rose, as well as a chronology of events and ample biography of source materials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 70 ans après le débarquement en Normandie, la mort ignoble et imbécile de milliers de jeunes hommes, l'auteur remonte le temps... Le temps d'une vie, la sienne, née en 1944, d'un amour qui fut le fruit du hasard, celui de la guerre.De ces vies simples et laborieuses, de la campagne à la ville, des travaux des champs aux usines, des congés payés aux présages heureux des trente glorieuses, de la peur du grondement de la guerre qui se rapproche, elle livre un récit attachant et détaillé. Elle veut partager ses souvenirs, s'interroger et interroger les témoins encore vivants. Elle mêle l'histoire de son père, prisonnier de guerre à la "grande histoire", celle qui détruit les peuples, fait naître les tyrannies, sème la pauvreté et la haine de l'autre.Ainsi que Jean GIONO nous priait dans "Les vraies richesses", « il ne faut pas obéir à la folie de l'argent». Comptons sur les générations futures pour ne pas céder aux délires de puissance d'une race contre une autre, d'un pays contre un autre.

Download or read book The Poems and Aphorisms of Maurice Chapelan written by Mary Munro-Hill and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-11-24 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, prefaced by the French novelist and essayist, Jeanne Cressanges, focuses on Maurice Chapelan’s poetry and aphorisms, which are an integral part of his œuvre. His poems encompass the whole essence of the man, his very heart and soul, whereas the aphorisms express his philosophy. Chapelan is a master of the prose poem—le poème en prose—a creator of concise poetic pieces full of rich imagery and musicality. His aphorisms, too, are often poetic, and most of his work, in every genre, contains verse and philosophy. Above all, Chapelan was a moralist and a fine practitioner of l’humour noir, which he defines as la conjuration de l’horreur par le rire. He called himself un humoraliste. Although Maurice Chapelan died in 1992 most of his books are still in print and he is remembered with affection, admiration and gratitude by those who used to relish his witty Divertissements grammaticaux in Le Figaro littéraire. He had been resident chroniqueur du langage at Le Figaro since 1961, his earlier articles appearing under the more sober heading, Usage et grammaire. He continued to write his chroniques until shortly before his death.

Download or read book The Politics of Obscenity in the Age of the Gutenberg Revolution written by Peter Frei and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-30 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does obscene mean? What does it have to say about the means through which meaning is produced and received in literary, artistic and, more broadly, social acts of representation and interaction? Early modern France and Europe faced these questions not only in regard to the political, religious and artistic reformations for which the Renaissance stands, but also in light of the reconfiguration of its mediasphere in the wake of the invention of the printing press. The Politics of Obscenity brings together researchers from Europe and the United States in offering scholars of early modern Europe a detailed understanding of the implications and the impact of obscene representations in their relationship to the Gutenberg Revolution which came to define Western modernity.
