Pensées animales : Manifeste pour l’anti-spécisme, le végétarisme, le droit et la libération des animaux
Author: David Ruffieux
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1471764788
Category : Law
Languages : fr
Pages : 278
Book Description
Pensées animales : Manifeste pour l'anti-spécisme, le végétarisme, le droit et la libération des animaux, est un livre qui traite de plusieurs thèmes concernant le végétarisme, les droits des animaux et les animaux de ferme. Après plus de 10 ans au Canada et au sein de plusieurs organisations locales de défenses animales, j'ai pu avoir une expérience du travail militant et participer à des campagnes d'éducation et d'actions directes contre des industries. Celle du foie gras, de la vivisection, de la fourrure : j'ai regroupé quelques idées qui relatent mes expériences au Canada mais aussi des analyses de sujets à controverses comme le végétarisme, l'abattage rituel religieux, les relations des médias avec certains mouvements militants. Ces textes se présentent comme un recueil pamphlétaire et d'essais. Cependant je ne me concentre pas seulement sur le Canada, la France est au centre de mes préoccupations.

Du missionnaire à l'anthropologue
Author:
Publisher: KARTHALA Editions
ISBN: 2811107258
Category : Anthropology
Languages : fr
Pages : 326
Book Description
L'engouement du public pour les écrits missionnaires, les journaux ou les récits de voyage alimente de nos jours toute une politique de réédition. Anthropologues et historiens découvrent ou redécouvrent avec un grand intérêt les ressources ethnohistoriques et ethnolinguistiques des journaux de bord tenus par les missionnaires européens ou indigènes, catéchistes ou évangélistes. répondant tantôt à la demande d'information de l'autorité institutionnelle de leur congrégation, tantôt à leur propre quête et curiosité. De la traduction de la Bible en langue vernaculaire à la production de traités savants sur la parenté ou la religion primitive, en passant par l'élaboration érudite de dictionnaires, de nombreux missionnaires ethnologues ont apporté une contribution majeure à l'émergence de la discipline ethnologique. A partir des années 1960, la consécration de l'anthropologie comme discipline universitaire et la professionnalisation du métier d'ethnologue ont amené les générations plus récentes à repenser les liens, les compromis ou les malentendus entre vocation religieuse et carrière d'ethnologue. Depuis lors s'est ouvert un vaste débat méthodologique entre historiens, anthropologues et missiologues. Les questions sur les rapports entre l'action missionnaire et l'action ethnologique demeurent nombreuses. Le cas de figure qu'incarne Michael Singleton, ancien missionnaire devenu ethnologue puis anthropologue formé par Sir Evans-Pritchard, a semblé aux éditeurs de ce livre une occasion idéale pour revenir sur ce sujet complexe. C'est en son hommage que sont publiées ici un ensemble de contributions présentées lors d'un colloque, tenu à Louvain-la-Neuve, en mars 2005, et qui ont été abondamment retravaillées. L'ouvrage se veut une imitation à poursuivre la réflexion à la lumière de cas souvent très différents mais complémentaires.

Engager l'anthropologie pour le développement et le changement social
Author: Sten Hagberg
Publisher: LIT Verlag Münster
ISBN: 3643903065
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : fr
Pages : 281
Book Description
The present APAD Bulletin contains a selection of papers presented at the APAD 2010 Conference in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, on the theme "Engaging Anthropology for Development and Social Change: Practices, Discourses and Ethics." Anthropological engagements face important challenges at the interface of research and development. The different ways by which anthropologists take on societal problems - either in their research capacity, as development experts, as activists, or as citizen - are inscribed in a longstanding debate. In this APAD Bulletin, the contributors deal with the central questions of how and under which conditions anthropology engages with society. The papers range from epistemological reflections and methodological queries to the anthropology of per diem and of public health, as well as to practical problems confronting anthropologists engaged in development cooperation. [PLEASE NOTE: This volume's Introduction is in English text. The remaining text is French language text only. There is no English translation.] (Series: APAD Bulletin - Vol. 34)

The Belgian Essays
Author: Charlotte Bronte
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300064896
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 562
Book Description
Venturing out of Yorkshire for the first time in their lives, the Bronte sisters Charlotte and Emily traveled to Brussels in 1842, and Charlotte returned for another visit in 1843. The journeys proved to be pivotal in both their writing careers. Under the tutelage of their brilliant teacher Constantin Heger, the young authors penned the twenty-eight essays (devoirs) collected for the first time in this volume. Each essay, presented in its original French, is accompanied by an English translation and commentary to establish historical and literary context. Where M. Heger made comments, they are reproduced in full. Nine of the essays have never been published before. Sue Lonoff offers a mine of information on the Brontes and their Brussels experience, exploring why the months in Belgium meant so much to the sisters and how their writing exercises affected their developing prose styles.

Seurat
Author: Richard Thomson
Publisher: Universe Publishing(NY)
ISBN:
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
This illustrated monograph throws new light on the meaning and imagery of Seurat's paintings. The usual account of Seurat lays most stress on technical and formal aspects of his work. While accepting their importance, Richard Thomson seeks to redress the balance by providing a sustained analysis of Seurat's imagery and situating his work within the fluctuating intellectual and social currents of the day. To Seurat the vital subject for contemporary painting was the modern metropolis, and this book examines the critical way in which he depicted and interpreted Paris, its suburbs and its popular entertainment.

Encyclopedia of French Film Directors
Author: Philippe Rège
Publisher: Scarecrow Press
ISBN: 081086939X
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 1486
Book Description
Cinema has been long associated with France, dating back to 1895, when Louis and Auguste Lumi_re screened their works, the first public viewing of films anywhere. Early silent pioneers Georges MZli_s, Alice Guy BlachZ and others followed in the footsteps of the Lumi_re brothers and the tradition of important filmmaking continued throughout the 20th century and beyond. In Encyclopedia of French Film Directors, Philippe Rège identifies every French director who has made at least one feature film since 1895. From undisputed masters to obscure one-timers, nearly 3,000 directors are cited here, including at least 200 filmmakers not mentioned in similar books published in France. Each director's entry contains a brief biographical summary, including dates and places of birth and death; information on the individual's education and professional training; and other pertinent details, such as real names (when the filmmaker uses a pseudonym). The entries also provide complete filmographies, including credits for feature films, shorts, documentaries, and television work. Some of the most important names in the history of film can be found in this encyclopedia, from masters of the Golden Age_Jean Renoir and RenZ Clair_to French New Wave artists such as Fran_ois Truffaut and Jean-Luc Godard.
