Louis van Gaal: Dutch Courage

Louis van Gaal is a paradox from top to toe. This is the man who, when unveiled as Bayern Munich manager in 2009, described himself like this: "I am what I am; self-confident, arrogant, dominant, honest, industrious, innovative." Former players have described him as "scary", as a "volcano". The former Barcelona president described him as "the devil himself". At Bayern, they said he "vaangalised" their team. And yet at the same time, he is "warm-blooded". He openly admits: "I cry almost every day. There's always something that touches me." Barcelona's Xavi says of him: "People see him as arrogant and aloof but he's really not." Dutch Courage is a detailed dissection of the truth behind the myth of Van Gaal, studying his philosophy and his character, as well as some of the excellent football teams he has produced. This Dutch master has been the head of some of the greatest dynasties in European football - Ajax, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, and Manchester United - as well as the boss of the Netherlands national team (twice). Along the way, he has won a combined seven league championships across Europe. He has also been successful in continental competitions, listing the Champions League, the UEFA Cup, and the UEFA Super Cup amongst his honours. As head coach of the Netherlands in the 2014 World Cup, he led them to within a whisker of the final, beating world champions Spain 5-1 along the way, before his young Dutch charges were finally beaten on penalties by Argentina in the semi-final. But in 2014 he took on arguably his greatest challenge: restoring Manchester United to their perch after a year in the doldrums. Christian Nerlinger predicts that Van Gaal's United reign will be anything but predictable: "one thing is for sure: it will not be boring." And this book is anything but boring. It is the exciting tale which supporters of Ajax, Barcelona, AZ Alkmaar, Bayern Munich, Manchester United and the Netherlands national team will want to read. Andrew J Kirby is a season-ticket holder at Old Trafford, and writes about United for a number of fanzines and blogs. He is the author of Fergie's Finest: Sir Alex Ferguson's Greatest Manchester United x11, and The Pride of all Europe: Manchester United's Greatest Seasons in the European Cup. PRAISE FOR THE BOOK "From Ajax to Man United, via Bayern Munich, Andrew J Kirby plots the rise of this indomitable, complex figure with verve and great insight. Despite not being a Manchester United fan, Van Gaal's extreme personality has long intrigued me. Kirby captures it on the page with an uncanny accuracy. This book is exhaustively researched, and offers great psychological insights into the man, as well as the world of football. Most books about football are poor- Kirby's is an exception, and is written with a ferocious intellect that matches its subject matter. A must-read for fans of United, and those of us interested in this colossus of football." - Guy Mankowski, author of 'How I Left the National Grid' PRAISE FOR ANDREW J KIRBY'S SPORTSWRITING "The author knows his stuff," Angela Bowman, Manchester United fan "The perfect gift for the red devil in your life " Sam Sharp, Manchester United fan "A good read for United fans young and old," AJ Hellina, Amazon reader "A must read for any red," Scott the Red, Republik of Mancunia on Fergie's Finest

Cette solitude r p titive, cet ennui jouissif et ce d cor limit . Une vie passive, simple, sans cons quence.

Louis XIV, by John Abbott, is a classic French history text detaling the life of King Louis XIV. We all live a double life: the external life which the world sees, and the internal life of hopes and fears, joys and griefs, temptations and sins, which the world sees not, and of which it knows but little. None lead this double life more emphatically than those who are seated upon thrones. Louis XIV (5 September 1638 - 1 September 1715), known as Louis the God-Given (Louis Dieudonn ), Louis the Great (Louis le Grand) or the Sun King (Roi Soleil), was a monarch of the House of Bourbon who reigned as King of France from 1643 until his death in 1715. Starting at the age of 4, his reign of 72 years and 110 days is the longest recorded of any monarch of a sovereign country in European history. 1] 2] In the age of absolutism in Europe, Louis XIV's France was a leader in the growing centralization of power. 3] Louis began his personal rule of France in 1661, after the death of his chief minister, the Italian Cardinal Mazarin. 4] An adherent of the concept of the divine right of kings, which advocates the divine origin of monarchical rule, Louis continued his predecessors' work of creating a centralized state governed from the capital. He sought to eliminate the remnants of feudalism persisting in parts of France and, by compelling many members of the nobility to inhabit his lavish Palace of Versailles, succeeded in pacifying the aristocracy, many members of which had participated in the Fronde rebellion during Louis' minority. By these means he became one of the most powerful French monarchs and consolidated a system of absolute monarchical rule in France that endured until the French Revolution. Louis encouraged and benefited from the work of prominent political, military, and cultural figures such as Mazarin, Colbert, Louvois, the Grand Cond , Turenne, and S bastien Le Prestre de Vauban, as well as Andr Charles Boulle, Moli re, Racine, Boileau, La Fontaine, Lully, Marais, Le Brun, Rigaud, Bossuet, Le Vau, Mansart, Charles and Claude Perrault, and Le N tre. Under his rule, the Edict of Nantes, which granted rights to Huguenots, was abolished. The revocation effectively forced Huguenots to emigrate or convert in a wave of dragonnades, which managed to virtually destroy the French Protestant minority. During Louis' reign, France was the leading European power, and it fought three major wars: the Franco-Dutch War, the War of the League of Augsburg, and the War of the Spanish Succession. There were also two lesser conflicts: the War of Devolution and the War of the Reunions. Warfare defined the foreign policy of Louis XIV, and his personality shaped his approach. Impelled "by a mix of commerce, revenge, and pique", Louis sensed that warfare was the ideal way to enhance his glory. In peacetime he concentrated on preparing for the next war. He taught his diplomats that their job was to create tactical and strategic advantages for the French military.

Louis Lambert naquit, en 1797, Montoire, petite ville du Vend mois, o son p re exploitait une tannerie de m diocre importance et comptait faire de lui son successeur; mais les dispositions qu'il manifesta pr matur ment pour l' tude modifi rent l'arr t paternel. D'ailleurs le tanneur et sa femme ch rissaient Louis comme on ch rit un fils unique et ne le contrariaient en rien. L'Ancien et le Nouveau Testament taient tomb s entre les mains de Louis l' ge de cinq ans; et ce livre, o sont contenus tant de livres, avait d cid de sa destin e. Cette enfantine imagination comprit-elle d j la myst rieuse profondeur des critures, pouvait-elle d j suivre l'Esprit-Saint dans son vol travers les mondes, s' prit-elle seulement des romanesques attraits qui abondent en ces po mes tout orientaux; ou, dans sa premi re innocence, cette me sympathisa-t-elle avec le sublime religieux que des mains divines ont panch dans ce livre Pour quelques lecteurs, notre r cit r soudra ces questions. Un fait r sulta de cette premi re lecture de la Bible: Louis allait par tout Montoire, y qu tant des livres qu'il obtenait la faveur de ces s ductions dont le secret n'appartient qu'aux enfants, et auxquelles personne ne sait r sister.
I Au moment o Louis Breuil mettait la main sur l'anneau du timbre, huit heures du soir sonnaient l'h tel de ville de Ch teaudun. Le jeune homme retira ses doigts avec pr cipitation, comme s'il e t t enchant de pouvoir se donner lui-m me un pr texte pour retarder son entr e, et faisant quelques pas, il se retourna vers la vall e du Loir, qui s' tendait ses pieds. Le soleil sur son d clin l'emplissait de sa splendeur; ce doux paysage fait pour reposer les yeux prenait cette heure un charme mu, intime et p n trant, qui disposait l' me cet ordre de pens es m lancoliques, particuli rement ch res aux esprits r veurs. Louis contempla la vall e pleine de feuillages, la rivi re argent e qui courait sinueuse entre deux rang es de saules t t s. La silhouette aux ar tes vives du ch teau superbe qui semble construit d'hier, tellement il est immuable dans sa perfection, se dessinait et bornait le regard peu de distance devant lui. Cette vue lui arracha un soupir. Breuil n'aimait point les lignes arr t es ni les bornes pr cises; ce qu'il fallait cette me flottante, c' tait le flou des horizons noy s dans la vapeur dor e du soir et l'ind cis des brouillards du matin... Aussi bien tait-ce cet amour du mal d fini qui lui avait fait quitter tout l'heure l'anneau qu'il tenait entre les doigts.
