Download or read book Patrons Authors and Workshops written by Godfried Croenen and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 2006 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patrons, Authors and Workshops invokes a cross-disciplinary approach to the study of late medieval books and book production in Paris, from the troubled years of the early fifteenth century onwards. It shows the extent to which such activity was able to flourish even against the backdrop of the endemic struggle between Burgundians and Armagnacs, or the subsequent English invasion which led to Agincourt and the regency of Bedford. Extensive coverage is given to the key role played by the libraire, to the author as scribe or copyist (Christine de Pisan, Jean Lebegue), and also to the development of commercial production under figures such as Jean Trepperel. A section on bibliophiles and their various commissions leads into a group of essays that focus on particular texts and authors, whilst a further section concentrates on what we can discover about the role of the scribe. The volume concludes with four essays offering insights into the work of particular artists and illuminators. The authors include scholars from the UK, France, Greece, Germany, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands and the USA. Godfried Croenen is Lecturer in French at the University of Liverpool. Peter Ainsworth is Professor of French at the University of Sheffield.
Download or read book Fa onn par la Haine l Exclusion et le Racisme written by Tarcisse Ruhamyandekwe and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2024-05-17 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce livre raconte l’histoire de Tarcisse Ruhamyandekwe dont le parcours a commencé à sa naissance au Rwanda. Dans sa vie, il a vécu tellement d’actes d’exclusion, de discrimination et de racisme que sa première réaction était toujours de les ignorer. Ce n’était pas normal, mais c’était acceptable. Ce comportement était en quelque sorte le résultat de sa vie en général. L’exclusion, la discrimination et le racisme étaient présents dès le début de sa vie. Il est né au Rwanda, alors un pays où le racisme était violent et qui a culminé avec l’horrible génocide contre les Tutsis en 1994. Entre l’âge de cinq et sept ans, il a vu des soldats du régime politique postcolonial emmener son père au milieu de la nuit sous la menace d’armes à feu simplement parce qu’il était Tutsi. Entre l’âge de sept et treize ans, on lui demandait régulièrement de se lever et de révéler son groupe ethnique Tutsi en classe. Au début de la vingtaine, il a été expulsé de l’Université nationale du Rwanda et s’est exilé à cause de son groupe ethnique. Au milieu de la vingtaine, il était un étudiant sans papiers constamment soumis à des noms péjoratifs au Zaïre, et à la fin de la vingtaine, il était un réfugié sans pays au Swaziland. Avec ce bagage, le traiter de « nègre » dans la quarantaine au Canada n’était pas une insulte qui allait changer sa vie. Mais un racisme sournois allait le priver d’opportunités incroyables dans une société où la vie dépend grandement de la performance financière. Il a alors compris que pour une personne noire au Canada, et qui plus est immigrante, la fenêtre d’opportunité est si petite que non seulement vous avez un temps limité pour la saisir, mais également besoin de compétences spécifiques pour réussir, “et non sombrer”, dans un environnement hostile. Mais à la fin, ceux qui ont mis des difficultés et des embûches dans sa vie ont fait de lui une meilleure personne, plus forte, compatissante et plus résiliente.

Download or read book A Frozen Woman written by Annie Ernaux and published by Seven Stories Press. This book was released on 2020-05-19 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WINNER OF THE 2022 NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE A Frozen Woman charts Ernaux's teenage awakening, and then the parallel progression of her desire to be desirable and her ambition to fulfill herself in her chosen profession - with the inevitable conflict between the two. And then she is 30 years old, a teacher married to an executive, mother of two infant sons. She looks after their nice apartment, raises her children. And yet, like millions of other women, she has felt her enthusiasm and curiosity, her strength and her happiness, slowly ebb under the weight of her daily routine. The very condition that everyone around her seems to consider normal and admirable for a woman is killing her. While each of Ernaux's books contain an autobiographical element, A Frozen Woman, one of Ernaux's early works, concentrates the spotlight piercingly on Annie herself. Mixing affection, rage and bitterness, A Frozen Woman shows us Ernaux's developing art when she still relied on traditional narrative, before the shortened form emerged that has since become her trademark.
