Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quatre notables acadiens reçus tels des chefs d’État par Charles de Gaulle au palais de l’Élysée. Plus de 2000 personnes qui manifestent dans les rues de Moncton scandant « on veut du français ! ». Une confrontation très médiatisée à l’hôtel de ville entre quatre jeunes résolus et un maire francophobe. Une tête de cochon déposée sur le seuil de sa maison en guise de protestation. L’occupation du plus grand pavillon de l’Université de Moncton par des étudiants armés de boyaux d’arrosage. Voilà quelques images fortes du « moment 68 » en Acadie, des images ancrées profondément dans la mémoire collective des Acadiens. Le présent ouvrage relate l’histoire du mouvement étudiant de Moncton, qui a été, toutes proportions gardées, l’un des plus importants au Canada au cours des années 1960. La dimension nationaliste de ce mouvement étant déjà relativement bien connue, cet ouvrage, appuyé sur des sources inexploitées, apporte une contribution importante à nos connaissances du « moment 68 », en l’ancrant dans l’histoire de la nouvelle gauche. Il permet ainsi de mieux comprendre la genèse et la nature de ce mouvement qui a conduit à un changement de paradigme politique en Acadie. Car, comme nous le rappelle l’auteur, les actions et les paroles des étudiants acadiens représentent, aussi, une incarnation locale de ce large mouvement qui marque l’histoire contemporaine et qui secoue le Québec comme le Canada, les États-Unis et l’Europe.

Norton & Company. This book was released on 2006-02-17 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Altogether superb: an accessible, fluent account that advances scholarship while building a worthy memorial to the victims of two and a half centuries past." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) In 1755, New England troops embarked on a "great and noble scheme" to expel 18,000 French-speaking Acadians ("the neutral French") from Nova Scotia, killing thousands, separating innumerable families, and driving many into forests where they waged a desperate guerrilla resistance. The right of neutrality; to live in peace from the imperial wars waged between France and England; had been one of the founding values of Acadia; its settlers traded and intermarried freely with native Mikmaq Indians and English Protestants alike. But the Acadians' refusal to swear unconditional allegiance to the British Crown in the mid-eighteenth century gave New Englanders, who had long coveted Nova Scotia's fertile farmland, pretense enough to launch a campaign of ethnic cleansing on a massive scale. John Mack Faragher draws on original research to weave 150 years of history into a gripping narrative of both the civilization of Acadia and the British plot to destroy it.

Download or read book Brian Eno written by Eric Enno Tamm and published by Da Capo Press. This book was released on 1995-08-22 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Musician, composer, producer: Brian Eno is unique in contemporary music. Best known in recent years for producing U2's sensational albums, Eno began his career as a synthesizer player for Roxy Music. He has since released many solo albums, both rock and ambient, written music for film and television soundtracks, and collaborated with David Bowie, David Byrne, Robert Fripp, and classical and experimental composers. His pioneering ambient sound has been enormously influential, and without him today's rock would have a decidedly different sound. Drawing on Eno's own words to examine his influences and ideas, this book—featuring a new afterword and an updated discography and bibliography—will long remain provocative and definitive.

Download or read book The Nomadic Object written by Christine Göttler and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-11-06 with total page 649 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the turn of the sixteenth century, the notion of world was dramatically being reshaped, leaving no aspect of human experience untouched. The Nomadic Object: The Challenge of World for Early Modern Religious Art examines how sacred art and artefacts responded to the demands of a world stage in the age of reform. Essays by leading scholars explore how religious objects resulting from cross-cultural contact defied national and confessional categories and were re-contextualised in a global framework via their collection, exchange, production, management, and circulation. In dialogue with current discourses, papers address issues of idolatry, translation, materiality, value, and the agency of networks. The Nomadic Object demonstrates the significance of religious systems, from overseas logistics to philosophical underpinnings, for a global art history.

Collins, Ralph Dekoninck, Dagmar Eichberger, Beate Fricke, Christine Göttler, Christiane Hille, Margit Kern, Dipti Khera, Yoriko Kobayashi-Sato, Urte Krass, Evonne Levy, Meredith Martin, Walter S.
