Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Albert Schweitzer fut un homme de premier plan dans bien des domaines. Comme theologien, philosophe, musicien et surtout comme medecin, il est universellement connu et entoure d'un veritable mythe. Contrairement a ce qui est communement admis, c'est a Schweitzer lui-meme que la construction de ce mythe est pour la plus grande partie redevable. L'essentiel de ce que l'on sait sur la vie et la carriere de l'illustre medecin de la foret equatoriale a comme source ses ecrits autobiographiques. L'originalite de la presente etude est de confronter pour la premiere fois a la realite historique les informations livrees par Schweitzer relativement a sa carriere, ses recherches et sa philosophie. De cette confrontation il ressort que, dans bien des cas, Schweitzer se depeint sous un jour qui est peu conforme a la realite.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Archives brought from Egypt to southern France in the early 19th century fell into the hands of a secret group whose own archives were confiscated by Occupation authorities during World War II. In 1942 some of these confiscated documents were appropriated by a young Frenchman who struggled over the following decades to decipher the importance of what he had stolen. By 1980 his rambling texts had become a prime source for the authors of Holy Blood, Holy Grail (and ultimately for The Da Vinci Code), which concluded, amid much controversy, that the early kings of France were descendants of Jesus and Mary Magdalene.Yet these source-texts have little, if anything, to say about Jesus and certainly nothing of his purported family. They do, however, hint at the survival of a unique, original, and inherently legitimate line of sacred kings from deep pre-Biblical times when, as set out in the Sumerian King List, "Kingship was lowered from Heaven".An Extra Player on the Playing Field of History examines the framework of Kingship and the origin of legitimate rule from their beginnings in Mesopotamia into Old and New Testament times, and from the Merovingian kings of France into later underground traditions. Their legacy is the story of an inherently Royal bloodline, of the Grail, and of its dedicated Keepers. This book examines the framework of Kingship and the origin of legitimate rule from their beginnings in Mesopotamia into Old and New Testament times, and from the Merovingian kings of France into later underground traditions. Their legacy is the story of an inherently Royal bloodline, of the Grail, and of its dedicated Keepers.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Albert Einstein was one of the initiators of the peace movement in Europe in the early twentieth century. He tirelessly denounced the imperfections of society due to the primitive institution of war and devoted his energies to outlawing war. After Hitlers rise to power, he abandoned pacifism and instead embraced a federalist vision according to which the root cause of war lies in the division of the world into sovereign states and the vehicle of peace is world government.This book explores Einsteins outlook on war and peace and traces the evolution of his thinking on these topics. In particular, Einstein developed a dialogue on war and peace with physicists like Bohr, Planck and Szilard as well intellectuals like Dewey, Freud, Gandhi, Mann, Mumford, Rolland Russell, Schweitzer and Tagore. The key concepts that were the focus of these discussions were the cause of war (included the EinsteinFreud debate on psychological and political causes of war) and the means to prevent it; the distinction between antimilitarism, pacifism, internationalism and federalism; and the dividing line between intergovernmental and supranational organizations. This book explores Albert Einstein's theory of war and peace in a multidisciplinary perspective. The research focuses on the cause of war, the means to prevent it, the distinction between antimilitarism, pacifism, internationalism and federalism, the dividing line between intergovernmental and supranational organizations.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This publication puts forward a revised vision in an attempt to solve one of the most serious problems facing schools, that of their inability to involve all pupils in learning. Beyond being a simple vision, it is also a plea for an in-depth transformation of educational practices. The contributions in this book call for a different look at problems and practices in the fight against school failure. The chapters in this book present the challenges faced by education and training professionals in France, Spain, Hungary and Denmark. The texts question and highlight the idea of cooperation between families, schools, communities and local authorities. How can we develop relevant and effective professional practices to combat pupils' learning difficulties? In guidance and future orientation, how can we consider pupils diversity and the often difficult social and economic context in which they live? How can we link school and out-of-school knowledge to better promote the development of pupils' learning? How can national or even international educational guidelines be linked to local initiatives? This book outlines the actions, realized in different European countries, that can contribute to reduce early school leaving. The analyses carried out question the changes needed for collaborative and cooperative work to better take into account the needs of pupils and their diversity.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In the last decades urban and heritage paradigms have shifted greatly. Heritage preservation and urban development are no longer considered as contradictory. Legitimate definitions of cultural heritage have widened as heritagisation processes expanded and exposed the socially constructed and dynamic nature of heritage, far from the monumentalist and object-centred approach which used to prevail.What does this imply for cities which have become global players ever increasing in size, flux, power and complexity? How can heritage and development be mutually reinforcing? How can policies and practices of heritage be fruitfully integrated as a resource into wider urban change while respecting environmental, social and cultural concerns?This volume analyses ways in which heritage recognition, conservation, valorisation and promotion have been integrated in urban planning and policies. It benefits from the cross-fertilization of specialists and practitioners in political, urban and area studies, cultural policy, sociology, anthropology, urban planning and architecture, who use a variety of methodologies to explore cities as living entities. The book examines the disputed influence of international frameworks, notably from UNESCO, and takes a holistic approach to cultural policies encompassing both theory and application, listed and unlisted sites, East and West. Case studies from Chile, China, Cuba, Ecuador, England, France and Peru allow to grasp both the diversity of situations and the converging policy and management practices. This volumes global perspective on urban issues will be of interest to urban planners, cultural policy and heritage specialists, social and human sciences researchers and students. Heritage preservation and urban development are no longer considered as contradictory. This volume analyses ways in which more varied understanding of heritage have been integrated in urban planning and policies and the role of international organisations and takes a holistic approach to cultural policies.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Conceived by Wagner as a way to recover the synthesis of arts at the core of Greek tragedy, the Gesamtkunstwerk played a significant role in post-Romantic and avant-garde aesthetics. It was designed to regenerate and defend the public function of art against mass culture and technology, yet at the same time depended on them in an ambivalent relationship manifested by its various realizations. The book reconceives the "total work of art" as a variation of intermediality, a practice that subverts any essentialist vision of artistic languages through complex interplay and blending of perceptions, amplified by new media and the syncretic nature of the cyberspace. The Gesamtkunstwerk can no longer be considered a Hegelian synthesis of arts or a Romantic and Wagnerian fusion of languages: it involves a synergy of different arts and media and captures the digital ages principle of open textuality without any hierarchy and any organicist connotations. This book reveals the vitality of modern and contemporary Gesamtkunstwerk by mapping its presence in various arts and media. Conceived by Wagner as a way to recover the synthesis of arts at the core of the Greek tragedy, the Gesamtkunstwerk played a big role in post-Romantic aesthetics. This book revisits the "total work of art" as a variation of intermediality that captures the digital ages principle of open textuality through complex interplay and synergy of media.

La « question du Québec » se pose dès l¿adoption de l¿Acte de l¿Amérique du Nord britannique en 1867 et n¿a jamais cessé depuis de mobiliser le débat constitutionnel au Canada. Réactivée pendant la Révolution tranquille dans les années 1960, elle n¿a pas trouvé la réponse attendue. Depuis le rapatriement de la Constitution canadienne initié en 1981 et mis en ¿uvre en 1982 par Pierre Elliott Trudeau, l¿imbroglio constitutionnel est dans l¿impasse. L¿esprit de réconciliation ou de compromis s¿évanouit suite à l¿échec de l¿Accord du lac Meech (1990) et de l¿Accord de Charlottetown (1992). Depuis deux décennies le dialogue de sourds entre le Québec et le Canada semble s¿être fossilisé. Est-il encore envisageable de trouver une solution acceptable pour dépasser la dualité fondatrice du Canada ? L¿objectif de ce livre est d¿explorer les termes du débat social, politique et constitutionnel autour de la « question du Québec » telle que celleci a été posée par les acteurs sociaux et politiques tant au Québec que dans le reste du Canada. Ce livre met en lumière la complexité de la crise constitutionnelle canadienne. Contenu : Pierre Hamel et Jean-Michel Lacroix : Le Québec et le Canada. De la crise constitutionnelle à des accommodements improbables : peut-on sortir de l¿impasse politique et constitutionnelle ? ¿ Philip Resnick : Le Canada : une fédération territoriale ou multinationale ? ¿ Réjean Pelletier : Le renouvellement de la fédération canadienne. Quand l¿immobilisme tient lieu de politique ¿ Gérard Boismenu : A-t-on toujours quelque chose à se dire ? Quand les références de la communication politique fichent le camp ¿ Joseph Yvon Thériault : L¿épuisement des sources endogènes du fédéralisme canadien ¿ Dimitri Bonnet : Le Bloc québécois et l¿unité nationale (1990-2011) ¿ Caroline Andrew : Les métropoles dans le système politique canadien ¿ Bob Young: Quebec and Canada: Associated States ¿ Éric Montpetit : Pour une approche incrémentale plutôt que visionnaire du fédéralisme canadien.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A compelling contribution to the largely understudied field of Latinx theatre, this book unpacks new developments in the Latinx and American cultural landscape registered by contemporary plays inspired and based on Greek tragic myths. It examines dramatic revisions of the myths of Medea, Oedipus, Electra, and Iphigenia by notable playwrights Carlos Morton, Cherrie Moraga, Luis Alfaro, and Caridad Svich for what they reveal about the increasingly complex, diverse, and globalized Latinidades of the post-Civil Rights Movement era. Through its discussion of six Greek-inflected mythoplays, the book brings to light emergent and transhemispheric dimensions taken on by mestizaje; the latter construed as an ethos, reality, and discourse central to any conception of Latinidad, however plural. Mestizaje is shown to be tuned to a tragic key in the theatrical corpus of works on which the analysis focuses, and it is to this tragic key that the book attributes the works singular sociocultural and political import. Emphasis is placed on the tragic mode as a rich source and potent ally in the plays attempt at configuring and applying a distinct kind of radical politics and a healing function while targeting, principally but not exclusively, Latinx communities of/in crisisincluding barrio, LGBTQ+, and borderland communities. By aligning the plays decolonizing impulse with the productive question mark of the tragic, the book calls attention to the brisk energy that the tragic myths reception by Latinx theatre infuses into the afterlife of the tragic, as it breaks new, syncretic ground in the latters reception history and contemporary rethinking. This book explores the reception of renowned Greek tragic myths by contemporary Latinx theatre. Its discussion of six mythoplays by notable playwrights reveals an emergent mestizaje tuned to the tragic mode, while also showing the tragic mode to be lodged at the heart of the plays radical politics and healing effects on communities of/in crisis.

This book is the result of research carried out in partnership with sevenEuropean universities as part of an Erasmus+ project on training teachersof Language for Specifi c Purpose (LSP) in higher education. All universitypartners, i.e. Bordeaux (France), Zagreb (Croatia), Jade (Germany), Cadiz(Spain), Adam Mickiewicz (Poland), Ljubljana (Slovenia), Arcola Research(UK), and Bergamo (Italy) carried out surveys and developed a detailedreport showing that in Europe there is very little training for this type ofteaching, and that teachers generally need to be trained in the specifi citiesof the language fi eld they are going to teach. Medical or maritime English,legal Spanish, French for tourism, etc. require both an expert domainknowledge and a grounding in language teaching. Several testimonieshighlight this situation and show the lack of career development prospectsfor LSP teachers at European universities.The members of the Erasmus+ TRAILs project have therefore beeninterested in the specifi c needs of LSP teachers and have been able toupdate the information through several types of surveys. The competencesof LSP teachers were thus identifi ed. Based on this precise inventory, theyare proposing to draw up a complete training programme.A pedagogical approach has been developed: resources, lesson preparation,course design, innovative pedagogical approaches are presented. Theresearch presented in this book goes well beyond the TRAILs project andquestions the training of specialised language teachers. More generally,it highlights the need to provide effective training and professionaldevelopment for LSP teachers and offers a contribution to overcoming theshortcomings of LSP teacher education. This book is the result of research carried out in partnership with seven European universities as part of an Erasmus+ project on training teachers of Language for Specifi c Purpose (LSP) in higher education.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. After reflecting On the European and Asian origins of legal and political systems: views from Korea, Kazakhstan and France (2018), the authors address in this book three intertwined issues. First, how systems that were established long ago are challenged by the necessity to adapt to change both in time, rapidly after the end of the cold war, and in space, across the continent of Eurasia and no longer simply in their sub-region. Second, how these systems evolve both in a sui generis manner and adopt, each for itself, reforms at the national and sub-regional levels; and also in a reciprocal manner, learn and borrow from each other towards a regional legal order in the making. Third, how extra-judicial evolutions, such as the logistical and commercial dynamics of the Belt and Road Initiative(s) appear more and more as the source or the cause of that very change affecting all Eurasian actors and interests. Examined elsewhere from a broad social sciences perspective, in the publication Cross-border exchanges: Eurasian perspectives on logistics and diplomacy (2019), these issues are here systematically analysed by a mix of conceptual and doctrinal perspectives and of textual, jurisprudential and positivist perspectives. Naturally, the challenge within the challenge to ascertain is whether a pan-regional or global legal model would be capable of impacting change in general and legal change in particular as part of the post-cold-war 2:, where the political-military legacy is overcome by and yields to business concerns reaching beyond cautious legal constructions. A la suite dun ouvrage sur les origines europeennes et asiatiques des systemes juridiques et politiques dEurasie, ce livre decrit comment ceux-ci sadaptent aux changements quils subissent, notamment de la part des innovations regionales comme les Nouvelles Routes de la Soie, la Cooperation de Shanghai et lUnion Economique Eurasienne.
