Download or read book Secrets d un p re insaisissable written by Caroll Lesage and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2023-07-05 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tout le monde a ses secrets, mais à quel prix? Lorsque l’auteur Caroll Lesage a retrouvé sa demi-sœur, aucun d’eux ne pouvait prédire les secrets qu’ils allaient déterrer ensemble sur leur père. Des amours secrètes aux triangles amoureux, en passant par l’adoption et la bigamie, plus ils creusent l’histoire de leur famille, plus les mystères font surface. Secrets d’un père insaisissable est à la fois un livre de souvenirs et un ouvrage de généalogie sur la quête d’un fils pour découvrir la vérité sur son père. Caroll Lesage aborde avec courage des sujets difficiles, tels que l’abus sexuel, le viol et l’orientation sexuelle. Encouragé par ses proches à partager son histoire dans toute sa complexité, M. Lesage espère ainsi montrer à d’autres personnes qu’elles ne sont pas les seules à vivre ce genre d’épreuves et qu’il est possible de s’affranchir de ses propres difficultés familiales. Il démontre les pouvoirs du pardon et de la compassion, même lorsqu’on découvre l’ampleur des secrets. Souvent ces secrets sont plus complexes qu’il n’y paraît même si, à l’origine, ils ont été gardés sans malice. Les lecteurs ayant un intérêt pour les drames familiaux prendront plaisir à percer les secrets les plus lourds dans ce récit captivant et à découvrir les sacrifices qu’un père est prêt à faire pour protéger sa famille.

Download or read book Jews and Muslims in British Colonial America written by Elizabeth Caldwell Hirschman and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2012-03-05 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans have learned in elementary school that their country was founded by a group of brave, white, largely British Christians. Modern reinterpretations recognize the contributions of African and indigenous Americans, but the basic premise has persisted. This groundbreaking study fundamentally challenges the traditional national storyline by postulating that many of the initial colonists were actually of Sephardic Jewish and Muslim Moorish ancestry. Supporting references include historical writings, ship manifests, wills, land grants, DNA test results, genealogies, and settler lists that provide for the first time the Spanish, Hebrew, Arabic, and Jewish origins of more than 5,000 surnames, the majority widely assumed to be British. By documenting the widespread presence of Jews and Muslims in prominent economic, political, financial and social positions in all of the original colonies, this innovative work offers a fresh perspective on the early American experience.

Download or read book The Pariah in Contemporary Society written by Marcienne Martin and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2017-08-21 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being the ugly duckling in a family or the pariah in a society amounts to living in marked and implicit difference, indifference, or even cruelty. The research to which this book is dedicated articulates the concept of the “pariah,” and it is through the various filters mentioned above that it proceeds to its analysis. Besides these, it also studies the notion of the “pariah” using the different strata that make up human society, such as literature. The book also presents the perceptions of lexicologists and psychologists, because behind the word there is the object, which is understood differently by the human psyche because it is included in value systems varying from one sociocultural group to another.
Download or read book Affaires de Famille written by Marie-Claire Barnet and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2007 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are families like in contemporary France? And what begins to emerge when we consider them from the point of view of recent theoretical perspectives: (faulty) cohesion, (fake) coherence, (carefully planned or subversive) deconstruction, loss (of love, confidence or credibility), or, even (utter) chaos and (alarming) confusion? Which media revamp old stereotypes, generate alternative reinterpretations, and imply more ambiguous answers? ...]Uneasy contradictions and ambiguities emerge in this bilingual collection of approaches and genre studies. The family plot seems to thicken as family ties appear to loosen. Has the family' been lost from sight, or is it being reinvented in our collective imaginary? This book proposes a new series of perspectives and questions on an old and familiar' topic, exploring the state and status of the family in contemporary literature, culture, critical and psychoanalytic theory and sociology.

Download or read book Amy Robsart written by Victor Hugo and published by Jazzybee Verlag. This book was released on 1926 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1828 Victor Hugo had just completed Cromwell, and was about to write Manon de Lorme. Cromwell was not his first drama; several years earlier he had written one: Amy Robsart. Six years had passed, and M. Hugo had entirely forgotten his first play, when the younger of his two brothers-in-law, Paul Foucher, who had a strong inclination for the stage, begged him to let him read it. But the play was not produced as the author wrote it at the age of nineteen. Victor Hugo did to Amy Robsart what he had done to Bug Jargal, and what he would have done to Cromwell, had not Talma’s death prevented its production. He modified and compressed the drama, and did not allow it to be played until he had prepared it for the stage.
