Mon père, ce héros – Petite histoire de l’Immigration Portugaise
Author: Luis CoixaoPublisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1291656537
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
Mon père, dans un lit d'Hôpital, quelques mois avant de mourir, ici en France, m'a raconté sa traversée de la frontière entre le Portugal et l'Espagne. Son émigration clandestine vers la France. A partir de cette petite histoire très émouvante, et en m'appuyant sur des éléments historiques et autobiographiques, j'ai voulu écrire notre épopée familiale, décrire la vie à Freixo de Numão, un petit village du nord du Portugal, dans les années 60 avant que mon père ne parte "a salto", son arrivée dans l'un des plus grands bidonvilles portugais de France, celui du Franc-Moisin à Saint-Denis, l'émigration clandestine de sa femme et de ses enfants, et les trois années pendant lesquelles nous avons habité ces baraques d'infortune. A travers ce récit, j'ai voulu refaire une nouvelle fois cette traversée clandestine des deux frontières qui a bouleversé le destin de centaines de milliers de personnes, ce voyage sans fin qui m'obsède depuis l'enfance, entre le rêve et la réalité, entre le Portugal et la France.

The History of the Maghrib
Author: Abdallah LarouiPublisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 1400869986
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 441
Book Description
This survey of North African history challenges both conventional attitudes toward North Africa and previously published histories written from the point of view of Western scholarship. The book aims, in Professor Laroui's words, "to give from within a decolonized vision of North African history just as the present leaders of the Maghrib are trying to modernize the economic and social structure of the country." The text is divided into four parts: the origins of the Islamic conquest; the stages of Islamization; the breakdown of central authority from the sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries; and the advent of colonial rule. Drawing on the methods of sociology and political science as well as traditional and modern historical approaches, the author stresses the evolution marked by these four stages and the internal forces that affected it. Until now, the author contends, North African history has been written either by colonial administrators and politicians concerned to defend foreign rule, or by nationalist ideologues. Both used an old-fashioned historiography, he asserts, focusing on political events, dynastic conflicts, and theological controversies. Here, Abdallah Laroui seeks to present the viewpoint of a Maghribi concerning the history of his own country, and to relate this history to the present structure of the region. Originally published in 1977. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
