The Seventy-Five Folios and Other Unpublished Manuscripts

The Seventy-Five Folios and Other Unpublished Manuscripts

Marcel Proust

HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS
2025
nidottu
A Washington Post Book That Shouldn’t Be Overlooked“Fascinating…In these drafts, we see the emerging elements of the Recherche as through a glass darkly.” —The Telegraph“If you delight in flickering recollections, glimpses and mirrors, hints and foreshadowings, this is, urgently, the book for you.” —Literary Review“The fascinating, handwritten early drafts of Marcel Proust’s cycle In Search of Lost Time, discovered in 2018, come to life in Taylor’s resplendent translation…This is a magnificent addition to Proust’s oeuvre.” —Publishers WeeklyThe discovery, in 2018, of manuscript pages containing early drafts of Marcel Proust’s In Search of Lost Time was one of the most significant literary events in living memory. The Seventy-Five Folios and Other Unpublished Manuscripts presents these fragments for the first time in English, along with seventeen other brief unpublished texts. Extensive commentary and notes by Proust scholar Nathalie Mauriac Dyer provide insightful critical analysis.A precious guide to understanding Proust’s masterpiece, the folios include early versions of six episodes appearing in the novel. Readers also glimpse the autobiographical extent of Proust’s writing, with traces of his family life scattered throughout. Before the existence of Charles Swann, we find a narrator named Marcel, a testament to what one scholar has called “the gradual transformation of lived experience into (auto)fiction in Proust’s elaboration of the novel.”Like a painter’s sketches and a composer’s holographs, Proust’s folios tell a story of artistic evolution. Here is a literary magnum opus finding its final form.

The Gardens of Adonis

The Gardens of Adonis

Marcel Detienne

Princeton University Press
1994
pokkari
Rich with implications for the history of sexuality, gender issues, and patterns of Hellenic literary imagining, Marcel Detienne's landmark book recasts long-standing ideas about the fertility myth of Adonis. The author challenges Sir James Frazer's thesis that the vegetation god Adonis-- whose premature death was mourned by women and whose resurrection marked a joyous occasion--represented the annual cycle of growth and decay in agriculture. Using the analytic tools of structuralism, Detienne shows instead that the festivals of Adonis depict a seductive but impotent and fruitless deity--whose physical ineptitude led to his death in a boar hunt, after which his body was found in a lettuce patch. Contrasting the festivals of Adonis with the solemn ones dedicated to Demeter, the goddess of grain, he reveals the former as a parody and negation of the institution of marriage. Detienne considers the short-lived gardens that Athenian women planted in mockery for Adonis's festival, and explores the function of such vegetal matter as spices, mint, myrrh, cereal, and wet plants in religious practice and in a wide selection of myths. His inquiry exposes, among many things, attitudes toward sexual activities ranging from "perverse" acts to marital relations.

The Disenchantment of the World

The Disenchantment of the World

Marcel Gauchet; Charles Taylor

Princeton University Press
1999
pokkari
Marcel Gauchet has launched one of the most ambitious and controversial works of speculative history recently to appear, based on the contention that Christianity is "the religion of the end of religion." In The Disenchantment of the World, Gauchet reinterprets the development of the modern west, with all its political and psychological complexities, in terms of mankind's changing relation to religion. He views Western history as a movement away from religious society, beginning with prophetic Judaism, gaining tremendous momentum in Christianity, and eventually leading to the rise of the political state. Gauchet's view that monotheistic religion itself was a form of social revolution is rich with implications for readers in fields across the humanities and social sciences. Life in religious society, Gauchet reminds us, involves a very different way of being than we know in our secular age: we must imagine prehistoric times where ever-present gods controlled every aspect of daily reality, and where ancestor worship grounded life's meaning in a far-off past. As prophecy-oriented religions shaped the concept of a single omnipotent God, one removed from the world and yet potentially knowable through prayer and reflection, human beings became increasingly free. Gauchet's paradoxical argument is that the development of human political and psychological autonomy must be understood against the backdrop of this double movement in religious consciousness--the growth of divine power and its increasing distance from human activity. In a fitting tribute to this passionate and brilliantly argued book, Charles Taylor offers an equally provocative foreword. Offering interpretations of key concepts proposed by Gauchet, Taylor also explores an important question: Does religion have a place in the future of Western society? The book does not close the door on religion but rather invites us to explore its socially constructive powers, which continue to shape Western politics and conceptions of the state.

Robespierre

Robespierre

Marcel Gauchet

PRINCETON UNIVERSITY PRESS
2022
sidottu
How Robespierre’s career and legacy embody the dangerous contradictions of democracyMaximilien Robespierre (1758–1794) is arguably the most controversial and contradictory figure of the French Revolution, inspiring passionate debate like no other protagonist of those dramatic and violent events. The fervor of those who defend Robespierre the “Incorruptible,” who championed the rights of the people, is met with revulsion by those who condemn him as the bloodthirsty tyrant who sent people to the guillotine. Marcel Gauchet argues that he was both, embodying the glorious achievement of liberty as well as the excesses that culminated in the Terror.In much the same way that 1789 and 1793 symbolize the two opposing faces of the French Revolution, Robespierre’s contradictions were the contradictions of the revolution itself. Robespierre was its purest incarnation, neither the defender of liberty who fell victim to the corrupting influence of power nor the tyrant who betrayed the principles of the revolution. Gauchet shows how Robespierre’s personal transition from opposition to governance was itself an expression of the tragedy inherent in a revolution whose own prophetic ideals were impossible to implement.This panoramic book tells the story of how the man most associated with the founding of modern French democracy was also the first tyrant of that democracy, and it offers vital lessons for all democracies about the perpetual danger of tyranny.

Reframing Scopes

Reframing Scopes

Marcel C. LaFollette

University Press of Kansas
2008
sidottu
The plight of John T. Scopes dominated headlines for weeks, but behind the scenes of the famous ""Monkey Trial"" were other dramas hidden from public view. Now a serendipitous discovery has opened a new window on the ""Trial of the Century,"" enabling modern readers to comprehend more completely the tensions that gripped a Tennessee community - and the nation - in 1925.Historian Marcel LaFollette discovered at the Smithsonian a cache of more than sixty never-before-published photographs taken at the Scopes trial. Her research on these photos sheds new light on the proceedings, as well as on the journalists and scientists who gathered for this epic confrontation between science and tradition.LaFollette takes readers behind the scenes to witness the trial from the perspective of journalist-photographers Watson Davis and Frank Thone, who had come to cover the trial but became informal liaisons between defense attorneys and the scientific community. They observed visitors and events and even befriended John Scopes in the years following the trial. Their impressions offer new views of Clarence Darrow and William Jennings Bryan and reveal the role of fascinating characters like George Washington Rappleyea, the cocky promoter who saw the trial as a way to bring publicity, tourists, and new business to Dayton.These photos - trial witnesses and visiting celebrities, an outdoor baptism service, defiant ministers assembled in front of a Dayton church - help ground the Scopes trial in southern religion and culture and relate it to a time and place on the cusp of change. The notes of Davis and Thone preserve keen observations of personalities and events, while letters between Scopes and the two reporters in the years after the trial help illuminate the character of an ordinary young man thrust into extraordinary circumstances.LaFollette weaves an engaging story of friendship, newly minted coalitions between scientists and journalists, and acts of goodwill in the midst of turmoil. Her book enables us to understand better the passions that swept one small town and came to divide the nation.

The British Museum Pocket Dictionary of Pharaohs and Queens

The British Museum Pocket Dictionary of Pharaohs and Queens

Marcel Marée

British Museum Press
2005
sidottu
A new title in the popular Pocket Dictionary series. A handy illustrated dictionary which will introduce the reader to the pharaohs - the great god-kings of ancient Egypt. It was these kings who built the pyramids, and other amazing monuments such as the temples and palaces of Thebes. It was some five thousand years ago that the first king united the whole of Egypt under one ruler. With short breaks, the rule of the pharaohs lasted for almost three thousand years, until the conquest of Egypt by Alexander the Great. It was rare for women to rule ancient Egypt in their own right, but there are notable exceptions, such as Hatshepsut, who took control of the country from her nephew and had herself shown on monuments with the regalia and physical body of a male king. Other queens were famed for their beauty and glamour, such as Nefertiti, and Rameses II's chief wife Nefertari, the inspiration for the wonderful temple at Abu Simbel, and the owner of one of the most beautiful tombs in the Valley of the Queens.

This new book analyzes the security policy of the Russian Federation, internally as well as externally, on all levels of strategy. It describes military and political decision-making from Moscow's grand strategy to the use of a single fighter aircraft in Chechnya. In this analysis, Russia's air forces are used as a model for all services of the armed forces.The Chechen conflicts and NATO's security policy have been dominant factors in the development of Russia's security policy during the period 1992-2002. The use of air power in the Chechen conflicts is used here as a case study for testing political and military-strategic objectives. With regard to NATO's security policy, this study shows that the eastward enlargement of this alliance, as well as its use of force in Bosnia and Kosovo, have caused an increase in anti-Western tendencies in Russian security thinking.

L'Idéal pédagogique en France au XVIIIe siècle

L'Idéal pédagogique en France au XVIIIe siècle

Marcel Grandière

Voltaire Foundation
1998
sidottu
Après la ‘crise de conscience européenne’ (1680-1715), la question de l’idéal pédagogique révèle les transformations de la société française dont elle est aussi un acteur. Les besoins de la société, les forces religieuses, l’évolution de la pensée scientifique s’y croisent pour un mouvement d’accommodation qui fait toute la richesse de la pensée du dix-huitième siècle. C’est l’objet de cet ouvrage que de chercher a montrer ce mouvement et cette richesse de la pensée pédagogique sous Louis XV et Louis XVI (avant la Révolution), alors que la formation des enfants se trouve être le lieu de convergence de quelques grandes questions que dut affronter la monarchie: la place des ‘arts utiles’, des ‘métiers mécaniques’ dans la société, le rôle de l’Eglise dans la vie du royaume, l’intégration de démarches intellectuelles nouvelles, qui provoquent des conflits avec la pensée chrétienne et qui remettent en cause les sources de la pédagogie, la philosophie de l’entendement et donc des savoirs, connaissances et qualités souhaitées chez les enfants et jeunes gens du peuple et des élites.Pour réaliser ce travail, nous nous sommes appuyés sur la très abondante littérature pédagogique du siècle tout en suivant la réalité du débat pédagogique dans quelques journaux pour en saisir le mouvement et les nombreuses implications. La production générale d’écrits sur l’éducation est proliférante; nous avons retenu ceux qui posaient la question éducative, dans l’axe de notre sujet, en veillant à ce que les genres littéraires soient variés comme l’exigeait le thème de notre étude. Le lecteur trouvera dans cet ouvrage la littérature pédagogique du siècle, même peut connue, en particulier celle des obscurs praticiens des écoles, des collèges et des maisons d’éducation qui ont beaucoup écrit. D’autre part, les questions pédagogiques passionnaient les Français, elles sont régulièrement traitées dans Le Mercure de France, le Journal de Verdun, et les Affiches de province.Le plan suivi est chronologique pour mettre en relief les changements opères au cours du siècle, selon l’importance accordee – ou non – aux sources chrétiennes de l’éducation, la sévère mise en cause des collèges accuses de pratiques ‘gothiques’, l’introduction des modèles nouveaux de la science fondes sur l’observation et l’expérience, l’évolution de la philosophie de la connaissance, selon aussi la pression de la société civile exigeante en ce qui concerne le bonheur, la morale, l’utilité publique de l’éducation pour les besoins de la nation.

Chronos on the Threshold

Chronos on the Threshold

Marcel Widzisz

Lexington Books
2011
sidottu
In Chronos on the Threshold: Time, Ritual, and Agency in the Oresteia Marcel Widzisz combines various anthropological, philological, and narratological perspectives in order to consider afresh both the textual details and structural elements of Aeschylus’ Oresteia. Included among the approaches is first a consideration of normative ritual structure in Archaic and Classical Greece and then a demonstration of its regular reconfiguration throughout the many individual scenes and choruses of the trilogy. This framework not only provides a new view of the micro and macro structure of the Oresteia, but also paves the way for an elucidation of the many references to time and its workings, references which, however well attested in the manuscripts, are being more strongly challenged if not altogether removed from recent editions of the Greek text. Time, however, beyond appearing as a subject at these key junctures, pervades the trilogy in a number of subtler ways: in how characters use timing, attempt to control the tempo of on-stage action, and even demonstrate different degrees of temporal perspicuity. The appearance of analepsis and prolepsis, the referencing of past and future (too often presented in previous scholarship in the form of mere cataloguing such instances), is shown to be a dynamic field of contention between opposed agents in a discursive process termed agonistic temporal framing, a practice not only found repeatedly in the Oresteia, but one which can be detected in authors as diverse as Homer and Plato. The manipulation of time and the various constructions of competing temporal horizons allow for a new view of what agency appears as and means in a work such as the Oresteia. The context of the law court in Eumenides brings with it a different type of temporality, specifically suited to resolve conflicting ritual claims, in which temporal framing and individual antagonisms are subsumed into a greater structure, with even wider and more long lasting implications for personal and corporate agency.

The Greeks and Us

The Greeks and Us

Marcel Detienne

Polity Press
2007
sidottu
The human race is all too pre-disposed to think in terms of us and them. Europeans have always laid claim to the Ancient Greeks they are our Greeks, our ancestors but their legacy reaches further than we could ever imagine. Their influence stretches from the Japanese to the Cossacks, from Ancient Rome to Indonesia. In this path-breaking new volume, the great French historian Marcel Detienne focuses on Eurocentric approaches which have trumpeted the Greeks and their democratic practices as our ancestors and the superiority of the Western tradition to which they gave rise. He argues that such approaches can be seen as narrow-minded and often covertly nationalistic. Detienne advocates what he calls comparative anthropology which sets out to illuminate the comparisons and contrasts between the beliefs, practices and institutions of different ancient and modern societies. Detienne aims to put the Greeks in perspective among other civilisations and also to look afresh at questions of political structure, literacy, nationhood, intellect and mythology. The work of Marcel Detienne has made an enormous impact on our thinking about the Greeks in areas such as rationality, literacy and mythology, and in this new volume he challenges once again our conception of the Greeks and their impact on the modern world.

Émile Durkheim

Émile Durkheim

Marcel Fournier

Polity Press
2012
sidottu
This book will become the standard work on the life and thought of Émile Durkheim, one of the great founding fathers of sociology. Durkheim remains one of the most widely read thinkers in the social sciences and every student of sociology, anthropology and related subjects must study his now-classic books. He brought about a revolution in the social sciences: the defence of the autonomy of sociology as a science, the systematic elaboration of rules and methods for studying the social, the condemnation of racial theories, the critique of Eurocentrism and the rehabilitation of the humanity of 'the primitive'. He defended the dignity of the individual, the freedom of the press, democratic institutions and the essential liberal values of tolerance and pluralism. At the same time he was critical of laisser-faire economics and he defended the values of solidarity and community life. In many ways, Durkheim's rich intellectual heritage has become part of the self-understanding of our time. Despite his enormous influence, the last major biography of Durkheim appeared more than 30 years ago. Since then, the opening up of archives and the discovery of manuscripts, correspondence with friends and close collaborators, administrative reports and notes taken by students have all provided a wealth of new material about his life and work. Meticulously documented, Marcel Fournier’s new biography sheds fresh light on Durkheim’s personality and character, his relationship with Judaism, his family life, his relations with friends and collaborators, his political and administrative responsibilities and his political views. This book will be indispensable to students and scholars throughout the social sciences and will appeal to a wide readership interested in knowing more about the life and work of one of the most original and influential thinkers of the twentieth century.

Transnational Labour History

Transnational Labour History

Marcel van der Linden

Ashgate Publishing Limited
2003
sidottu
There has been a growing recognition amongst scholars that labour historians need to look beyond national borders in order to place the history of the working classes into a much broader context than has hitherto been the case. Whilst studies focused on individual countries are essential, it is only by comparing and contrasting the experiences across time and space that a true understanding of the subject can be attempted. Professor Marcel van der Linden, has contributed much to the debate on cross-border processes and comparisons. This volume makes available in English a collection of twelve of his most important essays on the theme of transnational labour history. Previously published in a range of journals and volumes, with two original contributions, Transnational Labour History brings them together in a single convenient collection, together with a new introduction. This work will undoubtedly provide an invaluable resource for all students of European labour history.

Thresholds: Rethinking Spirituality Through Music

Thresholds: Rethinking Spirituality Through Music

Marcel Cobussen

Ashgate Publishing Limited
2008
sidottu
In Thresholds Marcel Cobussen rethinks the relationship between music and spirituality. The point of departure is the current movement within contemporary classical music known as New Spiritual Music, with as its main representatives Arvo Pärt, John Tavener, and Giya Kancheli. In almost all respects, the musical principles of the new spiritual music seem to be diametrically opposed to those of modernism: repetition and rest versus development and progress, tradition and familiarity versus innovation and experiment, communication versus individualism and conceptualism, tonality versus atonality, and so on. As such, this movement is often considered as part of the much larger complex called postmodernism. Joining in with ideas on spirituality as presented by Michel de Certeau and Mark C. Taylor, Cobussen deconstructs the classification of the 'spiritual dimensions' of music as described above. Thresholds presents an idea of spirituality in and through music that counters strategies of exclusion and mastering of alterity and connects it to wandering, erring, and roving. Using the philosophy of Martin Heidegger, Georges Bataille, Jean-François Lyotard, Jacques Derrida and others, and analysing the music of John Coltrane, the mythical Sirens, Arvo Pärt, and The Eagles (to mention a few), Cobussen regards spirituality as a (non)concept that escapes categorization, classification, and linguistic descriptions. Spirituality is a-topological, non-discursive and a manifestation of 'otherness'. And it is precisely music (or better: listening to music) that induces these thoughts: by carefully encountering, analysing, and evaluating certain examples from classical, jazz, pop and world music it is possible to detach spirituality from concepts of otherworldliness and transcendentalism. Thresholds opens a space in which spirituality can be connected to music that is not commonly considered in this light, thereby enriching the ways of approaching and discussing music. In order to achieve this, it is necessary to show that spirituality is not an attribute of music, not a simple adjective providing extra information or used to categorize certain types of music. Instead, the spiritual can happen through listening to music, in a more or less personalized relationship with it. This relationship might be characterized as susceptible instead of controlling, open instead of excluding, groping instead of rigid.
