Book excerpt: This book examines, for the first time, the history of the social, cultural, political and economic presence of the French in London, and explores the multiple ways in which this presence has contributed to the life of the city. The capital has often provided a place of refuge, from the Huguenots in the 17th century, through the period of the French Revolution, to various exile communities during the 19th century, and on to the Free French in the Second World War.It also considers the generation of French citizens who settled in post-war London, and goes on to provide insights into the contemporary French presence by assessing the motives and lives of French people seeking new opportunities in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. It analyses the impact that the French have had historically, and continue to have, on London life in the arts, gastronomy, business, industry and education, manifest in diverse places and institutions from the religious to the political via the educational, to the commercial and creative industries.

Download or read book The Fairytale as Art Form and Portrait of Man written by Max Luthi and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 1987-02-22 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fairytales have amused and delighted generations of both children and adults. They possess the unique quality of bringing together the human and otherworldly, creating a special kind of magic. In this major work by the distinguished Swiss folklorist Max Lüthi, the traditional fairytale is examined from two points of view, that of aesthetics and that of anthropology. According to the author, fairytales have been told time and again because they provide pleasure. Therefore, an aesthetics of the fairytale must be concerned with why these stories are still a source of pleasure. Lüthi shows that fairytales are more than just pleasing form; they present a particularly way of looking at the world and at human existence. Thus, they must be evaluated in terms of what they say about man and the human condition. -- From publisher's description.

Download or read book Fairy Tales and Society written by Ruth B. Bottigheimer and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2014-12-05 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of exemplary essays by internationally recognized scholars examines the fairy tale from historical, folkloristic, literary, and psychoanalytical points of view. For generations of children and adults, fairy tales have encapsulated social values, often through the use of fixed characters and situations, to a far greater extent than any other oral or literary form. In many societies, fairy tales function as a paradigm both for understanding society and for developing individual behavior and personality. A few of the topics covered in this volume: oral narration in contemporary society; madness and cure in the 1001 Nights; the female voice in folklore and fairy tale; change in narrative form; tests, tasks, and trials in the Grimms' fairy tales; and folklorists as agents of nationalism. The subject of methodology is discussed by Torborg Lundell, Stven Swann Jones, Hans-Jorg Uther, and Anna Tavis.
