Les mythes sont des récits idéalisés sur des personnages, des phénomènes, des évènements historiques. La religion, la philosophie, la psychanalyse, la sociologie et les arts ont puisé dans ce réservoir universel pour tenter de comprendre notre destin. Ce livre est une immersion complète dans l’univers des grands mythes de notre histoire. Ces mythes qui fascinent le monde entier.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis la nuit des temps, l'homme a cherché à percer le secret de ses origines, le mystère de la victoire de la vie sur le chaos : ainsi sont nés les mythes, une tentative d'expliquer l'indicible par des mots et des histoires compréhensibles aux hommes. Dans ce livre très complet, les auteurs nous racontent l'histoire du mythe dans les sociétés dites archaïques, son rôle profondément civilisateur. Ils détaillent pour nous les grands thèmes, que l'on retrouve dans la plupart des civilisations : l'œuf cosmique, les déluges, la Terre-Mère... Mais ils nous parlent également de la place, trop souvent ignorée, qu'il tient dans notre société actuelle, notre culture, et de l'émotion si particulière qu'il a toujours le don de susciter en nous. Car si le mythe peut paraître peu adapté à notre société moderne, matérialiste et souvent agnostique, il n'en est rien ! En réalité, loin d'être une fable anodine, il est comme un écho, au plus profond de notre psyché, de ce qui fait que l'homme est homme, avec ses doutes et ses interrogations, mais aussi ses savoirs cachés.

Book excerpt: Qu'est-ce qu'un mythe ? On n'a jamais réussi à épuiser le sujet... En grec ancien, " muthos ", c'est la " parole ", le " verbe ". Paul Veyne a écrit un jour que les mythes n'étaient, au départ, que des histoires racontées par les nourrices pour endormir les enfants. Pourtant, les mythes des Grecs ne disent pas n'importe quoi : ce sont des histoires de géants, de titans, de dieux et de héros dont les exploits et les conflits ont à voir avec l'origine du monde, des choses et des moeurs humaines. Les mythes ont une histoire. Leur première vie est celle du temps où ils circulaient de bouche à oreille. Cette préhistoire est l'objet de la " science des mythes " qui, depuis le xixe siècle, est venue prendre le relais des conjectures des philosophes. La rigueur croissante des méthodes de la mythologie comparée permet aujourd'hui d'entrevoir certaines lignes de leurs parcours à la surface de la Terre et dans le temps. Une fois couchés sur le papier, les mythes ont commencé une seconde vie. Mythes et légendes se transforment encore : on leur fait parler la langue du moment. Ainsi, des héros — Prométhée, Œdipe, Sisyphe —ont changé de costume au fil des siècles, et des histoires comme celle de la Tour de Babel ou du Déluge en sont venues à soutenir d'autres causes que celles que leur prêtaient leurs inventeurs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Célèbres métamorphoses, destins tragiques, épopées grandioses... Un mythe peut sembler tomber du ciel, comme Icare, ou bien jaillir des flots, comme Aphrodite. Il en résulte un feu d'artifice de récits fabuleux faisant intervenir dieux, monstres et forces surnaturelles, mais aussi hommes et Histoire... Les mythes gréco-romains nous parlent du passé, mais aussi de nous-mêmes, car notre monde moderne reste pénétré des cultures de l'Antiquité. Les figures de Prométhée, Achille, Ulysse, Jason, OEdipe, Orphée, Sisyphe, Hercule, et bien d'autres encore, ont traversé les siècles et les arts, et leur histoire fascine toujours.

Download or read book French Civilization and Its Discontents written by Tyler Stovall and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2003-10-22 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when the study of French is no longer coterminous with the study of France? French Civilization and Its Discontents explores the ways in which considerations of difference, especially colonialism, postcolonialism, and race, have shaped French culture and French studies in the modern era. Rejecting traditional assimilationist notions of French national identity, contributors to this groundbreaking volume demonstrate how literature, history, and other aspects of what is considered French civilization have been shaped by global processes of creolization and differentiation. This book ably demonstrates the necessity of studying France and the Francophone world together, and of recognizing not only the presence of France in the Francophone world but also the central place occupied by the Francophone world in world literature and history.
Download or read book Gr try s Operas and the French Public written by Dr James Arnold and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2016-01-28 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why, in the dying days of the Napoleonic Empire, did half of Paris turn out for the funeral of a composer? The death of André-Ernest-Modeste Grétry in 1813 was one of the sensations of the age, setting off months of tear-stained commemorations, reminiscences and revivals of his work. To understand this singular event, this interdisciplinary study looks back to Grétry’s earliest encounters with the French public during the 1760s and 1770s, seeking the roots of his reputation in the reactions of his listeners. The result is not simply an exploration of the relationship between a musician and his audiences, but of developments in musical thought and discursive culture, and of the formation of public opinion over a period of intense social and political change. The core of Grétry’s appeal was his mastery of song. Distinctive, direct and memorable, his melodies were exported out of the opera house into every corner of French life, serving as folkloristic tokens of celebration and solidarity, longing and regret. Grétry’s attention to the subjectivity of his audiences had a profound effect on operatic culture, forging a new sense of democratic collaboration between composer and listener. This study provides a reassessment of Grétry’s work and musical thought, positioning him as a major figure who linked the culture of feeling and the culture of reason - and who paved the way for Romantic notions of spectatorial absorption and the power of music.

Book excerpt: This is a book about shifting national identities in Belgium. It is an attempt to show how these identities emerged and evolved. It aims at explaining why the Belgian identity, which in 1830 was so strong that it could create a new nation-state, has become so weak that today it has to accept a mere overarching role above and in competition with the new national loyalties. More and more people wonder whether this country will survive.
Download or read book The Symbolic Representation of Gender written by Emanuela Lombardo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-24 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is symbolic representation? Since Hanna Pitkin’s seminal The Concept of Representation, the symbolic has been the least studied dimension of political representation. Innovatively adopting a discursive approach, this book - the first full-length treatment of symbolic representation - focuses on gender issues to tackle important questions such as: What are women and men symbols of, and how is gender constructed in policy discourse? It studies what functions symbolic representation fulfils in the construction of gender, what social roles get legitimized in policy discourse, and how this affects power constellations, ultimately revealing much about the relation between symbolic, descriptive, and substantive representation. Emanuela Lombardo and Petra Meier draw on theories of symbolic representation and gender, as well as rich primary material about political debates on labour and care issues, partnership and reproductive rights, gender violence, and quotas. Using this original data, the authors show that reconsidering symbolic representation from a discursive perspective makes explicit issues of (in)equality embedded within particular constructions, as well as their consequences for political representation and gender equality. This important exploration raises relevant new questions regarding the representation of gender that form valuable contributions to the fields of political science, political theory, sociology, and gender studies.
