Jean-Patrick Manchette (1942-1995) est le pere spirituel du mouvement que les journalistes ont baptise neo-polar et qui, aujourd'hui encore, continue d'influencer de nombreux auteurs. Il s'est inspire d'une critique sociale d'extreme gauche, basee sur la pensee situationniste, Hegel et Marx, afin de dynamiter le ronron du roman noir du debut des annees soixante-dix. Il a aussi innove du point de vue formel par un style insolent, tres litteraire et referentiel (nombreuses allusions aux romans hard-boiled de Chandler et Hammett ainsi qu'au cinema americain et au jazz). Manchette, romancier et theoricien du roman noir, fut un ecrivain particulierement representatif de son temps et, surtout, un veritables homme orchestre. Il debute par la traduction de romans (Robert Littell, Ross Thomas, Robert Bloch, Westlake entre autres) et de B. D. (Les gardiens de Moore et Gibbons). Entre 1971 et 1982, parallelement a l'ecriture de dix romans, il se consacre a la critique: de cinema pour Charlie hebdo, de polars pour Charlie mensuel et Polar. Il dirige la collection Futurama aux Presses de la Cite, il est redacteur en chef de BD, l'hebdo de la BD, et chroniqueur pour la rubrique Jeux de l'esprit de Metal hurlant. A partir de 1982, c'est le silence romanesque. Il se consacre alors a l'ecriture de scenarios pour le cinema et la television - plusieurs de ses livres passent (plus ou moins bien) au grand ecran: i dingos, o chateaux (Folle a tuer, Boisset), Le Petit bleu de la cote ouest (Trois hommes a abattre, Deray), Morgue pleine (Polar, Bral) entre autres. En 1989, il est opere d'une tumeur du pancreas - il decedera six ans plus tard d'un cancer du poumon. Il laisse plusieurs chefs-d'oeuvre, tels L'Affaire N'Gustro, Le Petit bleu de la cote Ouest, La Position du tireur couche (Gallimard). Apres sa mort, les Editions Rivages ont publie ses critiques de cinema et de polar, ainsi qu'un roman inacheve, La Princesse du sang. Un auteur majeur, dont l'influence s'etend bien au-dela du strict domaine du roman policier.

Essays for Patrick Atiyah
Patrick Atiyah is one of the most important legal scholars of his generation in the common-law world. His publications cover a wide field: legal theory, legal history, the study of legal institutions, the law of tort (especially compensation for personal injuries) and, most famously perhaps, the law of contract. It is no exaggeration to say that by his work, Atiyah has opened up new ways of thinking about the law of obligations. This volume of essays, written by colleagues, friends, and admirers of Patrick Atiyah from the UK and abroad, reflects the breadth of his interests. As well as discussions of particular aspects of the law of contract and tort, it contains essays on the history and theory of contract and tort and on the role of judges and law teachers. There is also an assessment of the `law in context' movement of which Patrick Atiyah was a founder member and leading practitioner. Contributors: William Twining, Tony Honoré, Jan Hellner, Robert S. Summers, John Bell, Paul D. Carrington, Robert Stevens, A. W. B. Simpson, Roy Goode, S. M. Waddams, Jane Stapleton, Donald Harris, John Dwyer, John Fleming, and Peter Cane.
The World of Saint Patrick

The World of Saint Patrick

The legend of Saint Patrick is irresistibly captivating-he drove the snakes out of Ireland, battled the druids, and used the three-leaf Shamrock to convert the pagan Irish to belief in the Christian Trinity. Yet, as so often happens, these stories are mere myths that fold under closer scrutiny. Snakes never plagued the Irish countryside, and the Emerald Isle's most beloved saint wasn't even Irish but a Briton of the Roman nobility. Fortunately, the truth is even more fascinating. In The World of Saint Patrick, classical scholar Philip Freeman offers the definitive account of Saint Patrick's life through new and vibrant translations of the greatest works of early Christian Ireland. This story of great violence, brutality, and even greater faith begins with two letters Patrick wrote describing his kidnapping by pirates at age sixteen and subsequent slavery. Although his grandfather was a priest and his father a deacon, at the time of his kidnapping Patrick had rejected his childhood faith in favor of atheism. Yet in this deeply moving narrative, Patrick recounts how he regained his faith during his captivity, and how the voice of God guided him both in his escape from bondage and in his eventual return to Ireland as a missionary to the very people who had enslaved him. The World of Saint Patrick delves into colorful tales of Patrick's struggles with pagan kings, soaring hymns of praise, and a prayer of protection against forces of evil such as "the magic of women, blacksmiths, and druids." Freeman also examines the life of Saint Brigid, Ireland's first female saint, and the legendary voyage of Saint Brendan and his monks across the western ocean. Both general readers with an interest in Ireland's saints and scholars studying religion or medieval history will be unable to put down this captivating tale of Ireland's greatest saint and the remarkable times in which he lived.
