99 cartas de amor

Various Various

Un compendio de las cartas de amor de grandes hombres a los amores que les inspiraron su arte, sus pasiones, incluso su afán de guerra: Las cartas de amor de los grandes hombres y mujeres de la historia nos ofrece las misivas más románticas, más inspiradoras y conmovedoras, pero también las más frías y extrañas; léase Albert Einstein, quien le escribía a su pareja que le mantuviese la ropa en orden, que se encargase de que recibiera tres comidas diarias, y que no contara con que podría sentarse con él, que saliese con él o que viajase con él…. Tenemos a James Joyce, quien bajo pretensiones eróticas escribía humillaciones para su amada; tenemos a Ludwig Van Bethoven, quien le escribe a su “amada inmortal” pidiéndole por compasión y estabilidad. ¿Quién no ha escrito una carta o una nota de amor? Amores imposibles, amores apasionados, amores amargos, amores traicionados, amores difíciles, amores prohibidos... siempre es interesante conocer los sentimientos más intensos de los hombres y mujeres que hicieran historia.

Berlin (The Passenger)

Various Various

Fully-illustrated, The Passenger collects the best new writing, photography, art and reportage from around the world. IN THIS When the Circus Came to The Resurrection of Potsdamer Platz by Peter Schneider・Berlin Suite by Cees Nooteboom・ A Field of Dreams by Vincenzo Latronico・ the controversial reconstruction of a Prussian castle, Berlin's most transgressive sex club and its disappearing traditional pubs, a green urban oasis, suburban neo-Nazis, North Vietnamese in the East, South Vietnamese in the West, techno everywhere and much more... "Berlin is too big for Berlin" is the curious title of a book by the flaneur Hanns Zischler, who joked about the low population density of a city so spread-out and polycentric--one of the reasons why it still inspires feelings of freedom and space. But the phrase also carries a symbolic, broader how can a single city encompass and sustain such a weighty mythology as that of contemporary Berlin, "the capital of cool"? In order to find out, it is necessary to travel to the 1990s, the origins of today's Berlin, when time seemed to have stopped. The scars of a century of war were still visible coal stoves, crumbling buildings, desolate minimarts, not a working buzzer or elevator. To visit the city then was a hallucinatory experience, a simultaneous journey into the past and into the future. The city's youth seemed to have appropriated--and turned into a positive--the famous phrase pronounced by Karl Scheffler at the beginning of the 20th "Berlin is a place doomed to always become, never be." The abandoned ruins, the hidden gems found at the flea market, the illegal basement raves are a thing of the past. The era of Berlin as a site of urban archeology is over. Almost all the damaged buildings have been repaired, squatters have been removed, the shops selling East German furniture have closed down. Without its wounds, the landscape of the city is perhaps less striking but more solid, stronger. Even the city's inhabitants have lost some of their melancholia, their romantic and self-destructive today you can even find people who come to Berlin to actually work, not just to "create" or idle their days away. Yet, Berlin remains a youthful city that doesn't cling to its "poor but sexy" past, whose only sacrosanct principles are an uncompromising multiculturalism and the belief that its future is yet to be written. To quote someone who knows the city well, Berlin is and always will be "pure potential."

Che genere di lingua? Sessismo e potere discriminatorio delle parole

Various Various

La relazione tra il linguaggio e la rappresentazione/costruzione della realtà è uno snodo teorico fondamentale che, negli ultimi anni, ha attraversato tutte le discipline umanistiche. Dalla semiotica alla letteratura, passando per la filosofia e la sociologia, l’analisi dei discorsi, dei suoi differenti ordini ed usi ha dato vita ad un ampio dibattito critico, dimostrando come il linguaggio sia uno strumento tutt’altro che neutro. Anche attraverso la critica portata avanti dagli studi delle donne e dal femminismo, il linguaggio e le pratiche linguistiche appaiono essere veicoli privilegiati per l’affermazione e la reiterazione di determinati valori e codici culturali. Il volume pone nuovamente l’attenzione sul piano critico-teorico ai nessi tra linguaggio e costruzione/percezione della realtà. In particolare, oltre all’analisi teorico-pratica del sessismo nella lingua italiana, approfondisce l’uso discriminatorio svolto dal linguaggio politico e scolastico – il sessismo nel linguaggio della politica e nel linguaggio della scuola. Presenta inoltre alcune proposte di possibili modelli e modalità linguistiche finalizzate ad un uso non discriminatorio e non sessista del linguaggio, prestando attenzione in particolare al mondo della scuola e riportando gli interventi di diversi docenti.

El Lado Oscuro

Various Various

Apariciones macabras, pactos con el diablo, cadáveres resucitados, monstruos de ciudad, pesadillas automáticas, aberraciones científicas... Todo suena extrañamente vigente y familiar. Los primeros relatos góticos y fantásticos, tal como los conocemos hoy en día, aparecen en el siglo XIX de la mano de los grandes autores del romanticismo alemán, anglosajón y francés. El género fantástico, en oposición a las grandes obras realistas y costumbristas de la época, les permite desarrollar su inclinación por lo sentimental, por lo patético, por lo macabro y lo inexplicable. Los autores románticos se inspiran además del folclore tradicional y resucitan historias y leyendas populares. De este modo, alimentan nuestro imaginario colectivo hasta la actualidad. La fantasía, la ciencia ficción y el género de horror, que conocemos hoy en día, se entremezclan en sus orígenes con la reivindicación romántica por lo tenebroso y lo irracional, a la que se añaden poco a poco reivindicaciones de carácter más social y crítico, como ocurre con la obra de Kafka. En efecto, el género fantástico permite situar en el mismo plano lo ilusorio y lo auténtico: de esta forma, los escritores no solo se limitan a la evocación poética del sufrimiento subjetivo, sino que introducen reflexiones de corte filosófico y político sobre la ciencia, la tecnología y por supuesto el ser humano. Teniendo en cuenta el imparable auge del género de la ciencia ficción (distopías futuras y contemporáneas en nuestras pantallas de cine, televisión, ordenador y móvil) y de las historias de fantasmas y apariciones, pero también el resurgir de supersticiones y rituales –más o menos– mágicos que vivimos en nuestros días, no es de extrañar que Maupassant o Kafka estén tan presentes. Este estuche de dos tomos reúne una colección de relatos de los maestros del género fantástico, desde Hoffmann y Poe hasta “el inventor de mundos” H.G. Wells, pasando por algunas leyendas del folklore de regiones próximas y distantes (Japón, Egipto, Francia), por algunos de los cuentos más sobrecogedores de los Hermanos Grimm e incluso por Voltaire y sus historias filosóficas.

Four in a Bed: Writing about Sex from the London Review of Books

Various Various

The pieces in this book look at divorce, bisexuality, boy toys, masturbation, impotence, bodice-rippers and involuntary celibates (incels), and more. Some of the authors pretend to apologise for being unable to resist the temptation to joke about sex, but the truth is it really can be very funny. This isn’t to deny its tragic side. But perhaps, as Wendy Doniger writes in her introduction, the essays collected here will strike a blow for more humour – and more humanism – in our thinking about these subjects, and the spaces in between. Featuring: Mary Beard, Jenny Diski, Wendy Doniger, Frank Kermode, Andrew O’Hagan, Adam Phillips, Amia Srinivasan, David Sylvester, Barbara Taylor, Hugo Williams and Mary-Kay Wilmers

Hamlet

Various Various

Hay ocasiones en las que el talento de un hombre destaca sobre el resto, y ello le permite rescatar a un personaje y a una historia que andaban escondidos entre las sombras, pasando de un autor a otro sin relevancia alguna, y convertirlo en un mito, inmortalizándolo para que puedan disfrutar de él las siguientes generaciones. Shakespeare y Hamlet son un buen ejemplo. La figura de Hamlet representa, desde su creación a manos del bardo, la encarnación misma del pesimismo y de la melancolía en la figura del hombre. Un personaje dominado claramente por las emociones, que se enfrenta a la cruda realidad que la vida le presenta e intenta resolver sus propios dilemas de la mejor manera que su entender le dicta. Su protagonismo sustenta y domina la historia desde el comienzo hasta su trágica muerte, que paradójicamente supone, junto al fallecimiento del tirano, la llegada de un nuevo orden para el país de Dinamarca.

India (The Passenger)

Various Various

Fully-illustrated, The Passenger collects the best new writing, photography, art and reportage from around the world. IN THIS VOLUME: Caste: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow by Arundhati Roy・The Invention of Hindu Nationalism by Prem Shankar Jha・No Country for Women by Tishani Doshi・plus: the grand ambitions of the world's most underrated space program, Bollywood's obsession with Swiss landscapes, an ode to Bengali food, eagerly awaiting the monsoon, the wrestler tackling stereotypes and much more... Since its earliest interactions with the West, India has been the object of a gross misinterpretation that has survived to the present day, a vague association with ideas of peace, spiritualism, the magic of the fakirs. Constantly reframed and mythicised by Westerners fleeing their supposedly rationalist societies, India continues to fascinate with its millennia-old history, its shrines on every street corner, its ancient beliefs and rituals, and its unique linguistic and cultural diversity. Today this picture is mixed with that of a society that is changing at a frenetic pace and is at the forefront of the digital revolution--a "shining India" of dynamic, fast-expanding megalopolises. Yet, these success stories coexist with the daily plight of the large section of India's population without access to drinking water or a toilet, with a rural economy (still employing the majority of India's over 1.3 billion inhabitants) that depends on monsoons for irrigation and is threatened by climate change. The greatest democratic experiment ever attempted, India remains plagued by one of the vilest forms of class and racial discrimination, the caste system, which is being exacerbated by the Hindu nationalist regime currently in power. All things considered, though, it is hard to find a more dynamic and optimistic country or, as Arundhati Roy puts it, "a more irredeemably chaotic people." This volume aims to depict India's chaos and its contradictions, its terror and its joy, from the struggle of the Kashmiri people to that of non-believers (hated by all religious sects), from the dances of the hijra in Koovagam to the success of the wrestler Vinesh Phogat, a symbol of the women who seek to free themselves from the oppressive patriarchal mores. Despite the obstacles and steps back, India continues its journey on the long path towards freedom and towards ending poverty for some of the world's most destitute people.

In the Garden: Essays on Nature and Growing

Various Various

Gardening, then, is a practice of sustained noticing . . .’ Outdoor space is something everyone should have access to. But you don’t need a garden to become a gardener. Growing plants and vegetables forces us to pause, pay attention and look more closely. From the vantage point of even the smallest windowsill garden we can observe the passing of time through the shifting of the seasons, as well as the environmental changes the planet is undergoing. In this collection of essays, fourteen writers go beyond simply considering a plot of soil to explore how gardening is a shared language, an opportunity for connection, something that is always evolving. Penelope Lively trains her gardening eye on her gardens past and present; Paul Mendez reflects on the image of the paradisal garden; Jon Day asks whether an urban community garden can be a radical place; and Victoria Adukwei Bulley considers the power of herbs and why there is no such thing as a weed. A collection about gardening unlike any other, In the Garden brings together fourteen brilliant writers to interrogate what is most important and pressing about growing today.

Irish Fairy and Folk Tales

Various Various

The tales collected for Irish Fairy and Folk Tales all are reprinted from nineteenth-century sources, but they date back much further, to a time when they were part of a centuries-old oral tradition of storytelling and had yet to be committed to the printed page. These are stories that passed down through the ages virtually unaltered in their telling. To those who told and listened to them, they expressed something fundamental about Irish culture and the Irish way of life. The stories in this volume feature a wide variety of fantastic beings, including ghosts, witches, fairies, and changelings, but several feature creatures that are virtually exclusive to Ireland: the banshee, the merrow, the pooka, and the leprechaun. Read these tales of frightening supernatural horrors, brave folk heroes, and everyday people clever enough to outwith the devil, and you'll agree that they could only take place on Irish soil.

It Ain't Over Til the Bisexual Speaks: An Anthology of Bisexual Voices

Various Various

'Bisexuality allows for so many ways to desire and to express that desire. Plurality is at the heart of bisexuality' The bisexual experience is, by necessity, incredibly diverse - we are likely to be attracted to different genders, form part of multiple marginalised groups, and be perceived (depending on the gender of our partner) in wildly different ways. This anthology is a radical and ambitious attempt to capture the incredible multiplicity of bisexual identities. With essays that unpack the intersectionality and conflict of bisexuality with history, language, sexual violence, class identity, religion, polyamory, gender critical ideology, fatness, trans activism, the asylum system, literature and anarchy - this collection of bi voices demands to be heard. With contributions from Shiri Eisner, Hafsa Qreshi, Zachary Zane, Heron Greenesmith, and many, many more...

Keep Calm and Carry On

Various Various

Keep Calm and Carry On was a World War 2 government poster discovered in a dusty box nine years ago. Though it never saw the light of day in 1939 (it was only supposed to go up if Britain was invaded), it has suddenly struck a chord in our current difficult times, now we are in need of a stiff upper lip and optimistic energy once again. Gordon Brown had one up in 10 Downing Street and James May wears a Keep Calm T-shirt on the telly - it is suddenly everywhere. The book is packed full of similarly motivational and inspirational quotes, proverbs, mantras and wry truths to help us through the recession, from such wits as Churchill, Disraeli and George Bernard Shaw. Funny, wise and stirring - it is a perfect source of strength to get us all through the coming months. 'A banker is a fellow who lends you his umbrella when the sun is shining and wants it back the minute it begins to rain' Mark Twain 'It's a recession when your neighbor loses his job; it's a depression when you lose your own' Harry S. Truman 'An economist is an expert who will know tomorrow why the things he predicted yesterday didn't happen today' Laurence J. Peter'Always laugh when you can. It is cheap medicine' Lord Byron'Better bread with water than cake with trouble' Russian Proverb

Kim+cd (Reading & Training)

Various Various

Set after the Second Afghan War which ended in 1881, but before the Third fought in 1919, probably in the period 1893 to 1898. The novel is notable for its detailed portrait of the people, culture, and varied religions of India. The book presents a vivid picture of India, its teeming populations, religions, and superstitions, and the life of the bazaars and the road. Two men - a boy who grows into early manhood and an old ascetic priest, the lama - are at the center of the novel. A quest faces them both. Born in India, Kim is nevertheless white, a sahib. While he wants to play the Great Game of Imperialism, he is also spiritually bound to the lama. His aim, as he moves chameleon-like through the two cultures, is to reconcile these opposing strands, while the lama searches for redemption from the Wheel of Life. A celebration of their friendship in a beautiful but often hostile environment, 'Kim' captures the opulence of India's exotic landscape, overlaid by the uneasy presence of the British Raj.

Le Gout de Diderot, Greuze, Chardin, Falconet, David...

Various Various

- Philosophe, romancier, dramaturge, encyclopediste, Diderot a egalement joue un role pionnier dans le domaine des arts, en redigeant a partir de 1759, pour la Correspondance litteraire, les comptes rendus des expositions de peinture publiques que l'Academie royale organisait tous les deux ans dans le Salon carre du Louvre.Ces Salons serviront et servent encore de modele et de reference a la critique d'art. A travers une selection de peintures (Boucher, Chardin, Greuze, Vernet, Vien, ...), de sculptures (Pigalle, Houdon...), de dessins et de gravures, l'exposition propose un apercu de ce qu'etait le gout des Lumieres auquel Diderot fut confronte, et de la maniere dont il developpa et exerca son gout propre. Sa culture visuelle, plastique, architecturale se developpe progressivement, ses Salons deviennent au cours des annees 1760 la rubrique fetiche de la Correspondance litteraire. Dans les annees 1770, il est sollicite comme courtier par Catherine II lors des grandes ventes des collections privees francaises. Goethe lit ses Essais sur la peinture en Allemagne, ses idees esthetiques et sa dramaturgie influencent de facon decisive le Sturm und Drang. Mais ce qu'on retiendra surtout, ce sont les mises en relation audacieuses qu'il propose, ou genres, modes, mediums se rencontrent: Greuze avec Boucher, le vrai faux et le faux vrai libertin; Deshays, Vincent et David qui peignent en poete entre epopee et simplicite sublime; Vernet le paysagiste avec les verres et les fruits de Chardin, pour la magie de l'art. L'exposition proposera au spectateur de faire l'experience de ces rencontres, guide par la verve inimitable de Diderot. Apres une section introductive rappelant la culture artistique de Diderot et l'importance des Salons dans la vie culturelle de l'epoque, le parcours s'articule autour de quatre themes refletant le gout et l'esthetique du philosophe: le probleme de la verite, la poesie de la peinture, la magie de l'art, le rapport a l'espace et aux volumes dans la sculpture et les monuments publics.

No dejes de escribirme. Cartas a la madre

Various Various

Es posible que muchos escritores y artistas guarden ciertas reservas con los asuntos íntimos presentes en su obra. En cambio, su correspondencia puede ser el reino de la libertad en el que todo cabe, en el que es posible la confesión sin pudores, la declaración desesperada y, en el caso de las cartas a la madre, un diálogo (o a veces un monólogo) vital, un reproche, un ajuste de cuentas o un consuelo al amparo de un edípico vínculo. Del verbo profundo de Gabriela Mistral como introducción, a Alejandra Pizarnik y Silvia Plath. Baudelaire, Vicente Huidobro y Luis Oyarzun; Frida Kahlo y Jean Cocteau, Rilke y Theodoro Adorno, entre otros, les escriben a sus madres en diversas circunstancias de sus vidas. Cada una de las cartas contenidas en este libro, nos hablan desde su silencio de desvelos y afanes, de alegrías y derrotas, en las que ingresamos a un universo personal, a las tensiones y contradicciones de un lazo vital que marca un destino. Cartas llenas de amor, ternura y complicidad, mensajes de perdón y agradecimiento, pero también de capricho e incomprensión. Epístolas en las que fluye la escritura íntima y latente que da cuenta de ese vínculo, único e indeleble, al que estamos unidos.

Nous et les autres - Des préjugés au racisme

Various Various

Nous et les autres : des discriminations au racisme , la première grande exposition temporaire du Musée de l'Homme propose une exploration pluridisciplinaire du processus d'exclusion et de haine de l'autre. Destiné à tous les publics, ce catalogue de l'exposition aborde la question du racisme sous les angles historique, scientifique et politique. Qu'est-ce que le racisme ? Pourquoi le racisme se manifeste-t-il ? Tous les Hommes sont-ils racistes ? Les sciences humaines, sociales et du vivant ont largement investi ces dernières années les questions relatives à l'altérité et à la discrimination, analysant les mécanismes de classification à l'aune de données de la génétique et de la psychologie peu diffusées dans l'espace public. Avec l'exposition " Nous et les autres ", le musée de l'Homme démonte les processus de catégorisation et de hiérarchisation pour mieux comprendre les phénomènes de racialisation et de racisme. En mêlant l'approche expérimentale et l'étude d'exemples historiques – la ségrégation américaine, le colonialisme français, le nazisme, le génocide au Rwanda, etc. –, il invite à une appréhension inédite, à la fois immersive et réflexive, de la situation contemporaine en France. Riche de contributions des meilleurs spécialistes sur des faits d'actualité (antitsiganisme, islamophobie, multiculturalisme, etc.), de témoignages de citoyens, d'un lexique des principales notions (préjugé, stéréotype, xénophobie, etc.) et de nombreuses informations et statistiques, ce livre se révèle un véritable outil de lutte contre le racisme.

Poems of the Late T'ang

Various Various

Classical Chinese poetry reached its pinnacle during the T'ang Dynasty (618-907 A.D.), and the poets of the late T'ang-a period of growing political turmoil and violence-are especially notable for combining strking formal inovation with raw emotional intensity. A. C. Graham’s slim but indispensable anthology of late T’ang poetry begins with Tu Fu, commonly recognized as the greatest Chinese poet of all, whose final poems and sequences lament the pains of exile in images of crystalline strangeness. It continues with the work of six other masters, including the “cold poet” Meng Chiao, who wrote of retreat from civilization to the remoteness of the high mountains; the troubled and haunting Li Ho, who, as Graham writes, cultivated a “wholly personal imagery of ghosts, blood, dying animals, weeping statues, whirlwinds, the will-o'-the-wisp”; and the shimmeringly strange poems of illicit love and Taoist initiation of the enigmatic Li Shang-yin. Offering the largest selection of these poets’ work available in English in a translation that is a classic in its own right, Poems of the Late T’ang also includes Graham’s searching essay “The Translation of Chinese Poetry” as well as helpful notes on each of the poets and on many of the individual poems.

Various Various

Este volumen reúne los dichos de los principales exponentes del movimiento sofístico, conservados directa o indirectamente, en citas de otros autores, así como las valoraciones favorables y adversas que hacia ellos expresaron escritores y filósofos posteriores, en especial Platón. La imagen sumamente negativa de los sofistas que ha predominado en la tradición de la historia de la filosofía, y de la que Platón es el máximo responsable, ha sido matizada y hasta rechazada por muchos estudiosos modernos, que han puesto de relieve la importancia de estos maestros de retórica y pensamiento del siglo V a.C. El nombre genérico no designa una escuela filosófica, ni siquiera un movimiento unitario, sino una línea de renovación pedagógica, a menudo calificada de ilustrada o enciclopédica, que preparaba a los ciudadanos atenienses para desenvolverse en la vida pública, mediante discursos y razonamientos. Los sofistas ofrecían, en lugar de la educación aristocrática tradicional, una formación intelectual sistemática, una enseñanza privada y un plan de estudios completo necesario en la cultura democrática. Cobraban por impartirlo, algo inusitado en la sociedad griega, en la que lo habitual era que el individuo se formara en el seno mismo de la ciudad, sin por eso se les reprochó vender falsa sabiduría a quien pudiera pagarles y rebajar la virtud en cuestiones éticas y políticas a cálculo pragmático de logros y ganancias. Entre estas dos valoraciones opuestas (maestros para la vida democrática en la pólis o instructores mercenarios de enseñanzas superficiales y desvirtuadas), es posible delimitar los temas fundamentales de la enseñanza sofí el estudio del lenguaje (desde la filosofía del lenguaje hasta la reflexión gramatical), el dominio de la retórica, la acción y la eficacia política, las relaciones entre el ámbito de la naturaleza y el de la cultura, el cuestionamiento sistemático de todas las opiniones y creencias tradicionales, la afirmación de la independencia intelectual con un talante empírico y escéptico, incluso positivista. Este volumen reúne los fragmentos que nos han llegado de los principales representantes del movimiento sofí Protágoras, Gorgias, Licofrón, Pródico, Trasímaco, Hipias, Antifonte, Critias, conservados a menudo de modo indirecto, en citas de otros autores (desde Platón y Aristóteles a Jenofonte, Plutarco, Cicerón y demás representantes de la gran tradición grecolatina). El volumen incorpora además de tales citas, textuales o no, las valoraciones que estos escritores hicieron de los sofistas, lo que posibilita conocer en lo posible no sólo qué afirmaron efectivamente éstos, sino también sus efectos y repercusiones en la literatura y la filosofía clásicas.

The Constitution of the United States of America and Selected Writings of the Founding Fathers

Various Various

America’s Founding Fathers were not just statesmen—they were intellectuals who knew the importance of their ideas and how best to communicate them to the American public. In the speeches and addresses they made, and in the editorials, essays, and pamphlets they published, we see them expressing the principles by which they wished to define their new nation, and reaching consensus about the best form of government that would endure and sustain the republic well beyond their own time. Much of what they spoke and wrote gave rise to the laws by which American is still governed today. This volume collects more than forty documents that played a crucial role in spurring the revolt of the thirteen original colonies against their mother country, England, and forging those colonies into the United States of America, a new country whose people shared common goals and interests manifested in the government they had created to uphold the laws of their republic. In these documents, we see the articulation, evolution, and refinement of the democratic ideals by which America is recognized.

The Passenger: Japan (The Passenger, 1)

Various Various

“Some Japanese stories end violently. Others never end at all, but only cut away, at the moment of extreme crisis, to a butterfly, or the wind, or the moon.” —Brian Phillips Visitors from the West look with amazement, and sometimes concern, at Japan’s social structures and unique, complex culture industry; the gigantic scale of its tech corporations and the resilience of its traditions; the extraordinary diversity of the subcultures that flourish in its “post-human” megacities. The country nonetheless remains an intricate and complicated jigsaw puzzle, an inexhaustible source of inspiration for stories, reflections, and reportage. The subjects in this volume range from the Japanese veneration of the dead to the Tokyo music scene, from urban alienation to cinema, from sumo to toxic masculinity. Caught between an ageing population and extreme post-modernity, Japan is an ideal observation point from which to understand our age and the one to come.

Over four difficult decades, dub gave marginalised people a voice for their anger, defiance and creativity. It was the soundtrack to post-Windrush culture.Serious and humorous, alive and urgent, here is the very best of dub poetry.The poets included in this collection Oku Onuora, Mikey Smith, Mutabaruka, Jean 'Binta' Breeze, James Berry, Benjamin Zephaniah, Ahdri Zhina Mandiela, Lillian Allen and Afua Cooper.

Vikings. La saga di Ragnar Lodbrok

Various Various

Da sempre i vichinghi hanno colpito il nostro immaginario: possenti guerrieri, bellicosi conquistatori forgiati dalle gelide terre del Nord. Abili costruttori di navi in grado di solcare le acque con rara velocità, quasi invisibili agli occhi del nemico. Un popolo che ha per eroi valorosi condottieri, invincibili sul campo di battaglia. Uomini i cui nomi evocano il clangore delle armi, il grido di paesi messi a ferro e fuoco, e che rimangono indissolubilmente legati a un destino di gloria anche dopo la morte. È così che la Storia li tramanda. E dalle nebbie della leggenda, un personaggio emerge in tutta la sua potenza: è Ragnar Lodbrok, ardente di una febbre di conquista che l’ha condotto dove altri avevano solo sognato di arrivare. Non abbiamo prova irrevocabile della sua esistenza, alcuni lo identificano con il capo vichingo che saccheggiò Parigi nell’845, altri con quel Raginarius cui il re franco Carlo il Calvo donò delle terre nell’840, altre cronache ancora narrano di un re norreno di nome Ragnall che razziò l’Irlanda. Il mito s’intreccia alla verità storica nel racconto delle gesta di questo guerriero tenace, sicuro, protetto e guardato con favore dagli dèi. Questo libro racchiude le antiche saghe che hanno tramandato la sua storia, quella delle sue mogli, dei suoi figli e di un intero, straordinario popolo.

Zemmour contre l'histoire

Various Various

"Faire mentir le passé pour mieux faire haïr au présent... et ainsi inventer un futur détestable."Éric Zemmour aime à se faire passer pour un intellectuel et l'histoire occupe une place à part dans la construction de sa figure publique. Conscient de la force de frappe idéologique de l'histoire et de son attrait auprès du public, il se targue d'un savoir sur le passé qui lui donnerait une compréhension intime et profonde des dynamiques à l'oeuvre aujourd'hui.Mais Éric Zemmour ne fait que déformer l'histoire pour la mettre au service de ses visions idéologiques. Aux travaux des historiennes et historiens, il prétend opposer un "roman national" idéalisant les gloires passées de la nation. De la première croisade à l'assassinat de Maurice Audin, de Clovis aux mutinés de 1917, de saint Louis au maréchal Pétain, cette histoire déborde d'erreurs, d'interprétations tendancieuses, voire de mensonges grossiers. Ignorant les sources et méprisant la recherche savante, le polémiste asservit l'histoire au profit d'un discours agressif, raciste et complotiste.Face à cette offensive, un collectif d'historiennes et d'historiens a décidé de répondre en corrigeant, point par point, les plus flagrantes et les plus dangereuses erreurs historiques d'Éric Zemmour.Textes écrits par un collectif d'historiennes et d'historiens rassemblant : Alya Aglan - Florian Besson - Jean-Luc Chappey - Vincent Denis - Jérémie Foa - Claude Gauvard - Laurent Joly - Guillaume Lancereau - Mathilde Larrère - André Loez - Gérard Noiriel - Nicolas Offenstadt - Philippe Oriol - Catherine Rideau-Kikuchi - Virginie Sansico - Sylvie Thénault.
