Racine the practising dramatist had been in some danger of being crowded out from the numerous books on his psychology and style.In this critical study of the man and his work, first published in 1951 and this slightly revised edition originally in 1973, Dr Brereton’s guiding principle has been to make the factual basis as accurate as it can be in the light of modern research. The result is the portrait of a sensitive and attractive figure which is none the worse for being shorn of certain legends.

Jean Rhys' position upon the literary map of the 20th century remains unstable, even after Wide Sargasso Sea (1966). She shunned public exposure and yet, desperately sought acknowledgement by her own peers; she stood away from the modernist circles of Montparnasse, in Paris, and yet, explored a radically avant-garde writing which retrospectively makes her rank among them, while her always problematic authority places her in the marginalized position of the postcolonial author.'Writing precariously', in the case of Jean Rhys, reaches far beyond a mere posture of submission or a necessity to cope with a lack of money or a 'room of one’s own'. Rather, it becomes an ethical and political stance that engages with forms of minimal resistance to forms of subjection just as the very precariousness of her writing thwarts any efforts to 'place' her or her work, to frame her characters or label her style. With Jean Rhys, precariousness is the site where voices silenced and bodies dismissed by a gendered or imperialistic power may be retrieved, until their vulnerability becomes a dislodging force that makes the power structures precarious in turn.This book reassesses the precariousness of Jean Rhys as a distinct positionality eliciting an isolated voice which insists and persists. It was originally published as a special issue of the journal, Women: A Cultural Review.

Jean Bodin and Biopolitics Before the Biopolitical Era

This book offers fresh perspectives on the history of biopolitics and the connection between this and the technology of sovereign power, which disregards or eliminates life.By analyzing Jean Bodin’s political thought, which acts as a prime example of early modern biopolitics and proves that the two technologies can coexist while maintaining their conceptual distinction, the author combines Foucauldian genealogy with political theory and intellectual history to argue that Michel Foucault is mistaken in presuming that biopolitics is an explicitly modern occurrence. The book examines Bodin’s work on areas such as populationism; censors; climates, humors, and temperaments; and witch hunts.This pioneering book is the first English-language volume to focus on the biopolitical aspects of Bodin’s work, with a Foucauldian reading of his political thought. It will appeal to students and scholars of political theory, sovereignty, and governance.

Jean Fran ois Millet: his Life and LettersIn this book, Mrs Henry Ady has amended and extended the official biography of the great peasant painter Jean Fran ois Millet that was started during his lifetime by his friend Alfred Sensier and completed by M. Paul Mantz, in the year 1881. The original work consisted of a large number of letters and recollections from Millet's own pen to Sensier. While these letters are of the utmost value and interest, many other important contributions to the subject have been made since its publication by French and American writers who were personally acquainted with Millet, and whose recollections reveal him under new and different aspects. The additional material included in this book shed a new light on Millet, and help to fill up the outline of his life and complete the picture. The smallest details that describe the character and genius of such a man are precious, and every incident in his life deserves to be remembered. For in Millet's case the man and the artist were closely bound together, and his art was in a special manner the outcome of his life.Julia Mary Cartwright Ady (1851-1924) was an English art art historian and biographer of the Italian Renaissance. This book is an unabridged reprint of the second edition of her book published by Swan Sonnenschein & Co., Lim., London in 1902. First edition published September 1896.

Sa principale occupation fut de nettoyer les alentours de sa demeure, de les enjoliver, de faire l'int rieur diverses am liorations r clam es avec instance par la nouvelle m nag re. Il fit pareillement de chaque c t du chemin public et sur toute la largeur de sa propri t une plantation d'arbres de diff rentes sortes qui devaient plus tard orner, embellir et gayer sa r sidence. On a d j vu que Jean Rivard aimait beaucoup les arbres; il tait m me cet gard quelque peu artiste. Il ne les aimait pas seulement pour l'ombrage qu'ils offrent, mais aussi pour le coup-d'oeil, pour l'effet, pour la beaut qu'ils donnent au paysage. C'est un go t malheureusement trop rare chez le cultivateur canadien, qui ne recherche en tout que l'utile, et qui souvent passera devant les plus beaux panoramas champ tres sans manifester la moindre motion. Soit effet d'une nature plus artistique ou d'un esprit plus cultiv Jean Rivard faisait exception la r gle. Il mettait autant d'attention bien tailler ses arbres, disposer sym triquement ses plantations autour de sa demeure qu'il en accordait au soin de ses animaux et aux autres d tails de son exploitation.
Jean-Marie Leclair was an 18th century violinist and composer who founded the French school of violin. He was stabbed to death either on October 22nd late at night, or October 23rd early morning, in 1764, when it was still dark. His body was found in the vestibule of his home which was located on the seedy side of Paris. No one was ever accused or arrested in the case, despite strong suspicions. It could have been a nephew who was envious of Leclair's success with the violin, playing in King Louis XV's Orchestra. It could have been his ex-wife who made money out of publishing and printing his manuscripts. This novella follows the clues in the list of suspects. It also follows the life of the man and describes the time in which he lived. It weaves a tale where nothing was proved and no arrests were ever made. An unsolved murder mystery of the 18th century Except for now
