Book Description
ART & CREAKY BONES by Sheila Reid, with a French translation by Anne Marchou 4 Awards -- Winner & Finalist, International Book Awards 2020 (American Book Fest) Finalist, National Indie Excellence Awards & Finalist, Next Generation Indie Book Awards 2020 Why are some people vibrant and active as they age, while others become tired and depressed? The author whose own bones are a little creaky these days, came across a story about a 102 year old artist in the glory of her first success at the Whitney Museum in New York. This set Reid off reading neuroscience reports about how creativity helps people live longer and stay in better health. The author, who has spent her whole life making art twelve hours a day and exhibiting in museums around the world, was overjoyed to learn how and why her favorite activity is such a super remedy for aging well. She found that anything creative, dancing or singing, drawing or even beginning a new language, will keep you healthier and lengthen your life. You will probably also make new friends. After 50 is maybe the best time of your life for creating something new, because the wisdom and experience you've gained over the years make you much more innovative. As you age you're freer and you have only your own pleasure to think of. The brain changes with time and you tend to be braver too, and more likely to produce something that is completely unexpected. One reason is that you worry less about what the world thinks. You gain a certain peacefulness. This creates fertile ground for your imagination to flourish as you get older. The increase of self-esteem these activities bring is nourishing to the soul and to the body. Isn't it wonderful to find some good news in the world today.? The people who awarded it 4 Book Awards, think you'll love Art & Creaky Bones.

Book Description
A travers le regard attentif et curieux d'un infatigable voyageur, des rencontres, des anecdotes et des coïncidences fortuites dévoilent le monde folk européen dans toute sa beauté et son authenticité. Un monde fait de musique et de musiciens, de danses et de danseurs, d'instruments et de luthiers, de festivals et de joie. Mais il est également constitué d'un patrimoine culturel et de valeurs que la sagesse centenaire des traditions a confié à un Homme moderne, toujours plus éloigné de la communauté, de la nature et de lui-même. Au temps d'Internet, du progrès technologique et de la mondialisation, parler de traditions, de proverbes, de dialectes, d'instruments anciens et de danses populaires peut sembler anachronique. Le message renfermé dans ces pages vous fera réfléchir sur le caractère actuel de ces langages populaires et sur la façon dont ils peuvent guider l'Homme vers un chemin conscient.

Book Description
Le Corps dans le roman des écrivaines syriennes contemporaines, de Martina Censi, explore les représentations du corps dans un corpus de romans en arabe publiés (entre 2004 et 2011) par six écrivaines syriennes. L’auteure conjugue l'analyse du texte littéraire avec la critique féministe et les études de genre. Par cette approche interdisciplinaire, Censi démontre que l'attention reservée par ces écrivaines aux représentations du corps féminin et masculin témoigne de leurs engagements dans la lutte pour l'émancipation des femmes, mais aussi, et surtout, dans celle pour l'affirmation de l'individu dans la société syrienne contemporaine. Les corps des personnages, marqués par leur différence unique, sont le lieu symbolique de la négociation entre les instances individuelles et collectives. In Le Corps dans le roman des écrivaines syriennes contemporaines, Martina Censi explores the representation of the body in a selection of Arabic novels published (between 2004 and 2011) by six Syrian women authors. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, which combines analysis of the literary texts with Feminist Criticism and Gender Studies, Censi demonstrates that, by focusing on the representation of female and male bodies, these novelists deal not only with feminist issues related to women's emancipation. The author reveals that they also engage in a broader analysis concerning the status of the individual in contemporary Syrian society. Marked by their unique difference, the characters’ bodies become the symbolic location for the negotiation between individual and collective claims.
Book Description
Les oeuvres de Gersonide (Levi b. Gershom ou Gerson, Leon de Bagnols, philosophe juif provencal 1288-1344) portent essentiellement sur quatre domaines: les commentaires qu'il a consacres aux commentaires d'Averroes, les questions philosophiques et theologico-philosophiques (livres I a IV, VI des Guerres du Seigneur), les commentaires biblioques et des travaux astronomiques (dont le livre V des Guerres). Dans les trois premiers domaines, la maniere dont il a travaille, l'ordonnancement des idees et leur mise en oeuvre sont ici compares a ceux qui furent utilises par ses contemporains scolastiques. Alors que son activite astronomique a amene Gersonide a la frequentation des savants de la cour du Pape a Avignon, il ne cite, dans les oeuvres etudiees, aucun auteur ni aucun texte latin. La maniere dont Gersonide fait de la philosophie, sa methode d'etude et de resolution des problemes, sa conception de l'exegese biblioque comme science et les procedes adoptes dans les commentaires bibliques le rapprochent cependant du monde latin intellectuel de son temps. Ce sont ces ressemblances, mais aussi les dissemblances, qui sont discutees ici.
