Download or read book Around and about Marius Barbeau written by Gordon E Smith and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marius Barbeau (1883-1969) played a vital role in shaping Canadian culture in the twentieth century. Rooted in the premise that his cultural work – in anthropology, fine arts, music, film, folklore studies, fiction, historiography – cannot be read uni-dimensionally, the sixteen articles that comprise this book demonstrate that by merging disciplinary perspectives about Barbeau, evaluations and understandings of the situation around Barbeau can be deepened.

Download or read book Literature and Event written by Mantra Mukim and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If "event" is a proper name we reserve for monumental changes, crises, transitions and ruptures that are by their very nature unnameable or unthinkable, then this volume is an attempt to set up an encounter between such eventhood as it comes to have a bearing on literary works and the work of reading literature. As the event continues to provide a valuable analytical paradigm for work undertaken within the newer subdisciplines of literary and critical theory, including close reading, bio- politics, world literature, and eco- criticism, this volume makes a concerted effort to update the scholarship in this area and foreground the recent resurgence of interest in the concept. The book provides both a retrospective appraisal of the significance of events to literary studies and the literary humanities, as well as contemporary and prospective appraisals of the same, and thus would appeal scholars and instructors in the areas of literary theory, comparative literature and philosophical aesthetics alike. Along with a specialist focus on thinkers such as Derrida, Badiou, Deleuze and Malabou, the essays in this volume read a wide corpus of literature ranging from Han Kang, Homer, Renee Gladman, Proust and Flaubert to Yoruba ideophones, Browning, Anne Carson, Jenichiro Oyabe and Ben Lerner.

Download or read book The Atheist s Bible Diderot s l ments de physiologie written by Caroline Warman and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2020-11-16 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Love is harder to explain than hunger, for a piece of fruit does not feel the desire to be eaten’: Denis Diderot’s Éléments de physiologie presents a world in flux, turning on the relationship between man, matter and mind. In this late work, Diderot delves playfully into the relationship between bodily sensation, emotion and perception, and asks his readers what it means to be human in the absence of a soul. The Atheist’s Bible challenges prevailing scholarly views on Diderot’s Éléments, asserting its contemporary philosophical importance, and prompting its readers to inspect more closely this little-known and little-studied work. In this timely volume, Warman establishes the place of Diderot’s Éléments in the trajectory of materialist theories of nature and the mind stretching back to Epicurus and Lucretius, and explores the fascinating reasons behind scholarly neglect of this seminal work. In turn, Warman outlines the hitherto unacknowledged dissemination and reception of Diderot’s Éléments, demonstrating how Diderot’s Éléments was circulated in manuscript-form as early as the 1790s, thus showing how the text came to influence the next generations of materialist thinkers. This book is accompanied by a digital edition of Jacques-André Naigeon’s Mémoires historiques et philosophiques sur la vie et les ouvrages de Denis Diderot (1823), a work which, Warman argues, represents the first publication of Diderot’s Éléments, long before its official publication date of 1875. The Atheist’s Bible constitutes a major contribution to the field of Diderot studies, and will be of further interest to scholars and students of materialist natural philosophy in the Age of Enlightenment and beyond.

This book was released on with total page 19633 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le jeune prince Karol de Roswald venait de perdre sa mère lorsqu'il fit connaissance avec la Floriani. Il était plongé encore dans une tristesse profonde, et rien ne pouvait le distraire. La princesse de Roswald avait été pour lui une mère tendre et parfaite. Elle avait prodigué à son enfance débile et souffreteuse les soins les plus assidus et le dévouement le plus entier. Élevé sous les yeux de cette digne et noble femme, le jeune homme n'avait eu qu'une passion réelle dans toute sa vie: l'amour filial. Cet amour réciproque du fils et de la mère les avait rendus exclusifs, et peut-être un peu trop absolus dans leur manière de voir et de sentir. La princesse était d'un esprit supérieur et d'une grande instruction, il est vrai; son entretien et ses enseignements semblaient pouvoir tenir lieu de tout au jeune Karol. La frêle santé de celui-ci s'était opposée à ces études classiques, pénibles, sèchement tenaces, qui ne valent pas toujours par elles-mêmes les leçons d'une mère éclairée, mais qui ont cet avantage indispensable de nous apprendre à travailler, parce qu'elles sont comme la clef de la science de la vie. La princesse de Roswald ayant écarté les pédagogues et les livres, par ordonnance des médecins, s'était attachée à former l'esprit et le cœur de son fils, par sa conversation, par ses récits, par une sorte d'insufflation de son être moral, que le jeune homme avait aspirée avec délices. Il était donc arrivé à savoir beaucoup sans avoir rien appris. Mais rien ne remplace l'expérience; et le soufflet que, dans mon enfance, on donnait encore aux marmots pour leur graver dans la mémoire le souvenir d'une grande émotion, d'un fait historique, d'un crime célèbre, ou de tout autreexemple à suivre ou à éviter, n'était pas chose si niaise que cela nous parait aujourd'hui. Nous ne donnons plus ce soufflet à nos enfants; mais ils vont le chercher ailleurs, et la lourde main de l'expérience l'applique plus rudement que ne ferait la nôtre. Le jeune Karol de Roswald connut donc le monde et la vie de bonne heure, de trop bonne heure peut-être, mais par la théorie et non par la pratique. Dans le louable dessein d'élever son âme, sa mère ne laissa approcher de lui que des personnes distinguées, dont les préceptes et l'exemple devaient lui être salutaires. Il sut bien que dehors il y avait des méchants et des fous, mais il n'apprit qu'à les éviter, nullement à les connaître. On lui enseigna bien à secourir les malheureux; les portes du palais où s'écoula son enfance étaient toujours ouvertes aux nécessiteux; mais, tout en les assistant, il s'habitua à mépriser la cause de leur détresse et à regarder cette plaie comme irrémédiable dans l'humanité. Le désordre, la paresse, l'ignorance ou le manque de jugement, sources fatales d'égarement et de misère, lui parurent, avec raison, incurables chez les individus. On ne lui apprit point à croire que les masses doivent et peuvent insensiblement s'en affranchir, et qu'en prenant l'humanité corps à corps, en discutant avec elle, en la gourmandent, et la caressant tour à tour, comme un enfant qu'on aime, en lui pardonnant beaucoup de rechutes pour en obtenir quelques progrès, on fait plus pour elle qu'en jetant à ses membres perclus ou gangrenés le secours restreint de la compassion.

Download or read book Rethinking the French Classroom written by E. Nicole Meyer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-13 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume investigates how teaching practices can address the changing status of literature in the French classroom. Focusing on how women writing in French are changing the face of French Studies, opening the canon to not only new approaches to gender but to genre, expanding interdisciplinary studies and aiding scholars to rethink the teaching of literature, each chapter provides concrete strategies useful to a wide variety of classrooms and institutional contexts. Essays address how to bring French Studies and women’s and gender studies into the twenty-first century through intersections of autobiography, gender issues and technology; ways to introduce beginning and intermediate students to the rich diversity of women writing in French; strategies for teaching postcolonial writing and literary theory; and interdisciplinary approaches to expand our student audiences in the United States, Canada, or abroad. In short, revisiting how we teach, why we teach, and what we teach through the prism of women’s texts and lives while raising issues that affect cisgender women of the Hexagon, queer and other-gendered women, immigrants and residents of the postcolony attracts more openly diverse students. Whether new to the profession or seasoned educators, faculty will find new ideas to invigorate and diversify their pedagogical approaches.

Download or read book Music and its Virtues in Islamic and Judaic Writings written by Amnon Shiloah and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating aspect of the study of music in medieval Islamic and Judaic writings is the broad and interdisciplinary nature of the works and treatises in which it is covered. In addition, such works verbalize an art that was transmitted orally and took shape spontaneously, typically with improvisation during performance. As a result of this outlook the musical concept (or science) is often intertwined with practice (or history). This second collection by Amnon Shiloah brings together twenty-two studies exemplifying such multi-faceted viewpoints on the world of sounds and its virtue. The first studies concern the origin and originators of music and to how its essential constituents came into being; included here is the art of dance along with the controversial attitudes towards it. Next comes the symbolic, philosophical and metaphorical interpretation of music; one of the major ideas epitomizing this approach claimed that the pursuit of knowledge is the path to human perfection and happiness. There follow studies on the transmission of knowledge, along with some annotated key works dealing with therapeutic effects. The last articles focus on cultural traditions elaborated on European soil developing a particular style and musical practice, centred on the Iberian Peninsula, which was the scene of one of the most fascinating examples of cultural interchange.
