Book excerpt: Meilleur ami de l'homme, machine à aimer, bébé de la famille dont on se dispute le droit de garde ou de visite : de qui parle-t-on ? Du chien bien sûr ! Pourtant, dans le droit français, il n'a d'autre statut que celui d'une chose. Depuis le Code civil de 1804, le canis familiaris est un bien mobilier, au même titre qu'une table. Voici le récit tumultueux de la place et du rôle donnés à cette boule de poils préférée des Français. Les philosophes de l'Antiquité ont ouvert la question de l'âme des animaux ; ceux du XVIIe siècle tel Descartes ont rangé le chien du côté des machines ; au XIXe, les juristes, en le classant comme une chose, ont ouvert une vaste querelle, dont l'enjeu est aujourd'hui la reconnaissance d'une "personne animale". Du chien de Montargis, Verbaux, qui a triomphé en combat singulier de l'assassin de son maître au XIVe siècle, à Laïka qui voyagea dans l'espace en 1957, découvrons la singulière histoire d'un objet de compagnie.

  • Author : Terry Pratchett
  • Publisher : Doubleday
  • Release : 2015-10-13
  • ISBN : 0385538251
  • Pages : 134 pages

Download or read book The World of Poo written by Terry Pratchett and published by Doubleday. This book was released on 2015-10-13 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Bestselling, fedora-sporting, multi award-winning Knight of the Realm, creator of worlds and one of the most popular British authors on the planet, Terry Pratchett is not so much a writer as a one-man publishing phenomenon who has single-handedly re-shaped the world of fantasy fiction....satirised everything from religion to Hollywood, been adapted for stage and screen and proven beyond all doubt that a wizard's staff does indeed have a knob on the end.' SFX's Outstanding Contribution Award From Snuff: 'Vimes' prompt arrival got a nod of approval from Sybil, who gingerly handed him a new book to read to Young Sam. Vimes looked at the cover. The title was The World of Poo. When his wife was out of eyeshot he carefully leafed through it. Well, okay, you had to accept that the world had moved on and these days fairy stories were probably not going to be about twinkly little things with wings. As he turned page after page, it dawned on him that whoever had written this book, they certainly knew what would make kids like Young Sam laugh until they were nearly sick. The bit about sailing down the river almost made him smile. But interspersed with the scatology was actually quite interesting stuff about septic tanks and dunnakin divers and gongfermors and how dog muck helped make the very best leather, and other things that you never thought you would need to know, but once heard somehow lodged in your mind...'

Book Animals and Early Modern Identity

Download or read book Animals and Early Modern Identity written by PiaF. Cuneo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Animals were everywhere in the early modern period and they impacted, at least in some way, the lives of every kind of early modern person, from the humblest peasant to the greatest prince. Artists made careers based on depicting them. English gentry impoverished themselves spending money on them. Humanists exercised their scholarship writing about them. Pastors saved souls delivering sermons on them. Nobles forged alliances competing with them. Foreigners and indigenes negotiated with one another through trading them. The nexus between animal-human relationships and early modern identity is illuminated in this volume by the latest research of international scholars working on the history of art, literature, and of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Germany, France, England, Spain, and South Africa. Collectively, these essays investigate how animals - horses, dogs, pigs, hogs, fish, cattle, sheep, birds, rhinoceroses, even sea-monsters and other creatures - served people in Europe, England, the Americas, and Africa to defend, contest or transcend the boundaries of early modern identities. Developments in the methodologies employed by scholars to interrogate the past have opened up an intellectual and discursive space for - and a concomitant recognition of - the study of animals as a topic that significantly elucidates past and present histories. Relevant to a considerable array of disciplines, the study of animals also provides a means to surmount traditional disciplinary boundaries through processes of dynamic interchange and cross-fertilization.

Book Folk Narrative and World View

Download or read book Folk Narrative and World View written by Leander Petzoldt and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 1996 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Sicht der Welt in der Volkserzählung ist ein genuin gesellschaftliches, im weitesten Sinn politisches Thema. Die in diesem Tagungsband behandelten Volkserzählungen wie Sagen, Märchen, Schwänke, Lieder oder Rätsel reflektieren nicht nur die jeweilige Gesamtkultur, sondern in ihren Einzelaspekten auch die Weltsicht des erzählenden Individuums. Dabei bestimmen Faktoren wie Religion und Wirtschaft, Geschichte und Milieu und nicht zuletzt die soziale Struktur des Gemeinwesens die Weltsicht des Einzelnen und verweisen trotz der Vielfalt auf eine relativ beschränkte Zahl von Erklärungsmodellen der Welt. Der Sammelband enthält Beiträge in englischer, deutscher und französischer Sprache. World view in folk narrative is a genuine social and, in an even wider sense, political topic. The articles in this publication, whether they deal with legends, fairy tales, anecdotes, songs or riddles do not only reflect the culture, but in some aspects also the world view of the narrating individual. The world view of the individual is determined by the facts religion and economy, history and background and last but not least the social structure of the society in which the individual lives. Nevertheless, there are only a relatively limited number of explanations of the world, conceptions or world formulas on which the world view of an individual is based. This publication contains articles in English, German and French.

Book Maria Pergay

Download or read book Maria Pergay written by Suzanne Demisch and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a recent auction, after two of Maria Pergay's 1970s steel chairs sold for seven times their high estimate, an observer told The New York Times that was "the most exciting bidding of the sale, because it was fashion." Over Pergay's 50-year-and-counting career, her sophisticated objects, furniture and decor have won her a following and an illustrious clientele that has included Salvador Dali, Pierre Cardin and King Fahd of Saudi Arabia, but they have only recently gained recognition among design collectors, curators and aficionados. Maria Pergay: Between Ideas and Design is the first in-depth survey of the designer's remarkable life and work. Beginning in the 1950s and continuing to the present, it features over 200 photographs of interiors and furniture, archival illustrations from her personal collection--most of which have never before been published--and a candid interview. The end product is equal parts authoritative reference, source of rare insight and aesthetic journey into the lifestyle of the cultural and social elite of the late 60s and early 70s.
