Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Les pertes inouïes de la Grande Guerre ont entraîné la généralisation de pratiques embryonnaires auparavant : individualisation des sépultures, construction de monuments commémoratifs, multiplication des rites. Des chercheurs de nombreux pays étudient les traces de cette rupture majeure, encore largement visible dans les paysages. Tombes, cénotaphes, nécropoles, monuments et mémoriaux en représentent le témoignage matériel et culturel. Anthropologues, historiens, archéologues, spécialistes du tourisme de mémoire, retracent comment a été remémorée ce que l'on croyait être la vision du monde des disparus, du sacrifice au pacifisme. La comparaison internationale et diachronique, de la Seconde Guerre mondiale au génocide du Rwanda, donne toute leur importance à ces sites, au moment où ceux du front occidental belge et français sont candidats à entrer au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO. Ces témoins des consciences traversées par le malheur des guerres sont l'espoir de la réconciliation humaniste."--Page 4 of cover.

Download or read book The Embattled Self written by Leonard V. Smith and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-03 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did the soldiers in the trenches of the Great War understand and explain battlefield experience, and themselves through that experience? Situated at the intersection of military history and cultural history, The Embattled Self draws on the testimony of French combatants to explore how combatants came to terms with the war. In order to do so, they used a variety of narrative tools at hand—rites of passage, mastery, a character of the soldier as a consenting citizen of the Republic. None of the resulting versions of the story provided a completely consistent narrative, and all raised more questions about the "truth" of experience than they answered. Eventually, a story revolving around tragedy and the soldier as victim came to dominate—even to silence—other types of accounts. In thematic chapters, Leonard V. Smith explains why the novel structured by a specific notion of trauma prevailed by the 1930s. Smith canvasses the vast literature of nonfictional and fictional testimony from French soldiers to understand how and why the "embattled self" changed over time. In the process, he undermines the conventional understanding of the war as tragedy and its soldiers as victims, a view that has dominated both scholarly and popular opinion since the interwar period. The book is important reading not only for traditional historians of warfare but also for scholars in a variety of fields who think critically about trauma and the use of personal testimony in literary and historical studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La guerre d'Algérie, une guerre qui s'est longtemps refusée à dire son nom, demeure trois générations plus tard un sujet hautement polémique. Le sort réservé aux supplétifs, qu'ils soient harkis, mokhaznis, ou policiers ruraux, a fait couler beaucoup d'encre. Le harki Mehdi Baadi, personnage de fiction, a été le héros malheureux d'une Algérie à feu et à sang. En dépit des événements il a continué de croire en la France. Il l'a rejointe en soixante-deux dans des conditions tragiques, connu la vie des camps où il s'est retrouvé entassé avec des milliers de coreligionnaires en attente d'un toit, d'un emploi, d'un retour à la dignité...

Download or read book A Gallery of Mirrors written by Harry Levin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this classic volume range from broad concerns with critical theory and aesthetic formulation to specific analysis of forms and texts. Levin discusses such matters as the symbolic interpretation of literature, the development of literary criticism during the past half-century, European attitudes toward contemporary American writers, and re-evaluations of Joyce, Proust, Balzac, Cervantes, Melville, and Hemingway. Because Levin is both a learned scholar and imaginative critic, there is no comparable book that offers the wit, taste, and learning one finds in these pages. His historical and comparative approaches to literary theory enable Levin to place a given work precisely by relating it to other works and manifestations of culture. World literature is not the province of this work. But Levin views it as the horizon against which our own traditions may be measured. Just as anthropologists discover similar processes working through diverse cultures, so through can we glean understanding of common patterns through the analysis of world literature, our own peculiarly specialized branch of the science of man. The effect of convention, in shaping the extent to which literature may be conceived as an institution, has been widely discussed. A Gallery of Mirrors raises theoretical questions that touch the methodology of humanistic scholarship, with regard to other disciplines, and the status of art, with regard to other modes of knowledge. With changing schools of critical thought, Levin relies considerably on semantics as a precision instrument for defining concepts in the terms of those for whom they were most meaningful.
