Book Description
The New Testament is crossed by an incredible narrative tension. The poetic language allows this tension to be highlighted: it paints the features of an epic of salvation through plays of images, symbols, and emotions, and gives the texts a new intensity. While this collection does not require any preliminary biblical knowledge, the latter will help to grasp its full meaning. The reader can choose a systematic reading from the beginning or go directly to the heart of the collection by reading the poems concerning the passion and resurrection, starting from “Gethsemane.” They will then understand what reading the book can bring them. As with the collection Beginnings, which precedes it, the poems are given in the original language they were first written (French) and in their translation into English. The people who can read French will be able to appreciate the musicality inherent in their composition. The English reader will be able to appreciate the general aesthetics of the images and the description of the emotions faithfully rendered by the translation.

Book Description
"[This book] is a fictional journal by Egg Flounder who is your average teenage boy in all ways except for one thing: he is deaf. This is a story of his floundering attempts to live in a hearing world: taking speech lessons from old Mrs. Tautog so not to sound like a "Frenchman with a cold", accidentally exposing himself to a group of nuns, coping with whistling hearing aids, squinting to lip-read his girlfriend in the dark disco and many other amusing misfortunes. We are treated with Egg's absurd and surrealistic philosophical musings, his ad-libbed school presentations and just plain wonderings, such as why the biblical Adam is portrayed as having a belly button?"--Page [4] of cover.

Book Description
School success in the 21st century requires proficiency with expository discourse -- the use and understanding of informative language in spoken and written modalities. This occurs, for example, when high school students read their textbooks and listen to their teachers' lectures, and later are asked to demonstrate their knowledge of this complex topic through oral reports and essay examinations. Although many students are proficient with the expository genre, others struggle to meet these expectations. This book is designed to provide information on the use and understanding of expository discourse in school-age children, adolescents, and young adults. Recently, researchers from around the world have been investigating the development of this genre in typical students and in those with language disorders. Although many books have addressed the development of conversational and narrative discourse, by comparison, books devoted to the topic of expository discourse are sparse. This crossdisciplinary volume fills that gap in the literature and makes a unique contribution to the study of language development and disorders. It will be of interest to a range of professionals, including speech-language pathologists, teachers, linguists, and psychologists who are concerned with language development and disorders.
