Writing and Filming the Genocide of the Tutsis in Rwanda

Writing and Filming the Genocide of the Tutsis in Rwanda

Alexandre Dauge-Roth

Lexington Books
2011
nidottu
Writing and Filming the Genocide of the Tutsis in Rwanda: Dismembering and Remembering Traumatic History is an innovative work in Francophone and African studies that examines a wide range of responses to the 1994 genocide of the Tutsis in Rwanda. From survivor testimonies, to novels by African authors, to films such as Hotel Rwanda and Sometimes in April, the arts of witnessing are varied, comprehensive, and compelling. Alexandre Dauge-Roth compares the specific potential and the limits of each medium to craft unique responses to the genocide and instill in us its haunting legacy. In the wake of genocide, urgent questions arise: How do survivors both claim their shared humanity and speak the radically personal and violent experience of their past? How do authors and filmmakers make inconceivable trauma accessible to a society that will always remain foreign to their experience? How are we transformed by the genocide through these various modes of listening, viewing, and reading?

L' Église et la politique québécoise, de Taschereau à Duplessis

L' Église et la politique québécoise, de Taschereau à Duplessis

Alexandre Dumas

McGill-Queen's University Press
2019
sidottu
Si l'on en croit l'historien Denis Vaugeois, les gens inventent des histoires depuis soixante ans à propos du gouvernement de Maurice Duplessis. Dans le domaine de la politique, l'image généralement acceptée du Québec d'avant la Révolution tranquille est celle d'une société écrasée par une Église catholique omniprésente, avec la complicité d'un gouvernement de l'Union nationale corrompu. L'arrivée au pouvoir du Parti libéral de Jean Lesage en 1960 devait mettre un terme à cette puissante alliance et permettre ainsi au Québec d'entrer dans l'ère moderne. Se peut-il que les tendances politiques du clergé catholique se démarquaient alors de cette idée populaire et l'avaient toujours fait? L'Église et la politique québécoise, de Taschereau à Duplessis jette un nouveau regard sur des préjugés concernant le rôle historique joué par l'Église catholique dans la politique du Québec. Le soutien électoral du clergé à l'Union nationale, la ferme opposition de l'Église au droit de vote des femmes, l'origine cléricale de la Loi du cadenas et le soutien accordé par l'archevêque de Montréal au dirigeant fasciste Adrien Arcand sont toutes des notions qui ont reçu l'aval inconditionnel des historiens – des idées remises en question dans cet ouvrage. En ce qui a trait à la relation entre l'Église et l'État, Maurice Duplessis s'inscrivait dans la continuité de ses homologues libéraux. Après avoir consulté des archives jusqu'ici inaccessibles, Alexandre Dumas en vient à la conclusion surprenante que l'Église catholique était peut-être plus sympathique à la cause du Parti libéral qu'à celle de l'Union nationale.

Bringing together gastronomy, discovery, and travel, this geographically organized journey highlights more than 700 culinary specialties spanning five continents. There is much food trivia and history to ponder: the common carrot originated in Afghanistan, while fish sperm is prized in Japan.

Organized alphabetically by continent and country, this is an engaging tour of the world's pantry from soup to nuts, including fruits, vegetables, spices, breads and baked goods, seafood, meats, dairy, drinks, and much more. Highly browsable, this is an inspirational guide to new tastes and culinary adventures.

The Foundation of Rome

The Foundation of Rome

Alexandre Grandazzi

Cornell University Press
1997
pokkari
At once a historical essay and a self-conscious meditation on the writing of history, The Foundation of Rome takes as its starting point a series of accounts of Rome's origins offered over the course of centuries. Alexandre Grandazzi places these accounts in their contemporary contexts and shows how the growing sophistication in methodology gradually changed the accepted views of the city's origins. He looks, for example, at the hypercritical philology of the nineteenth century which cast aside everything that could not be verified. He then explains how the increase in archaeological discoveries and changing archaeological techniques influenced the story of Rome's birth.Grandazzi produces a depiction of Rome's origins that is both up-to-date and provocative. His use of scientific parallels in describing changes in the ways texts were analyzed and his broad familiarity with comparative material make his synthesis particularly illuminating, and he writes with clarity, verve, and wit.

Introduction to the Reading of Hegel

Introduction to the Reading of Hegel

Alexandre Kojeve

Cornell University Press
1980
pokkari
"This collection of Kojeve's thoughts about Hegel constitutes one of the few important philosophical books of the twentieth century—a book, knowledge of which is requisite to the full awareness of our situation and to the grasp of the most modern perspective on the eternal questions of philosophy."—Allan Bloom (from the Introduction) During the years 1933–1939, the Russian-born and German-educated Marxist political philosopher Alexandre Kojève (1902–1968) brilliantly explicated—through a series of lectures—the philosophy of Hegel as it was developed in the Phenomenology of Spirit. This collection of lectures—originally compiled by Raymond Queneau and edited for its English-language translation by Allan Bloom—shows the intensity of Kojève's study and thought and the depth of his insight into Hegel's Phenomenology. More important—for Kojève was above all a philosopher and not an ideologue—this profound and venturesome work on Hegel will expose the readers to the excitement of discovering a great mind in all its force and power.

From the Closed World to the Infinite Universe

From the Closed World to the Infinite Universe

Alexandre Koyre

Johns Hopkins University Press
1968
pokkari
During the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries a radical change occurred in the patterns and framework of European thought. In the wake of discoveries through the telescope and Copernican theory, the notion of an ordered cosmos of 'fixed stars' gave way to that of a universe infinite in both time and space - with significant and far-reaching consequences for human thought. Alexandre Koyre interprets this revolution in terms of the change that occurred in our conception of the universe and our place in it and shows the primacy of this change in the development of the modern world.
