A cultural history of one of Paris’s most fascinating and variegated areas, whose history can be summarized as ‘from riches to rags and back again.’ The Marais was the beating heart of fashionable Paris from the Middle Ages through to the time of Louis XIV, when the court’s move to Versailles marked the start of a decline in its fortunes. Thereafter it became a working-class, largely Jewish area, sometimes described as a ‘ghetto’, and by the early twentieth century was in a parlous condition from which it was extricated by the Paris City Council and the 1960s restoration plan of...

"La Regle Du Jeu": French Film Guide
ISBN: 9781848850545 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Of Jean Renoir's La Regle du jeu (1939), Richard Roud noted: ""if France were destroyed tomorrow and nothing remained but this film, the whole country and its civilisation could be reconstructed from it.'"" An extravagant claim, but one that in the view of Keith Reader is justified. In this original, up-to-date, scrupulously documented book on one of the great films of world cinema, Reader focuses on La Regle du jeu in the context of both the time in which it was made and the currents of intertextuality by which it is traversed. He examines sequences from the film itself, its... Of Jean Renoir's La Regle du jeu (1939), Richard Roud noted: ""if France were destroyed tomorrow and nothing remained but this film, the who... |

Intellectuals and the Left in France Since 1968
ISBN: 9780333361979 / Angielski / Twarda / 1987 / 154 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Lacan, Althusser, Derrida, Foucault - the currency of these names in the world of modern thought is widespread. But all too often in the English-speaking world their work and ideas are considered without reference to the context in which they were produced, and this is the gap that this new study sets out to fill. The major revaluation of what constituted the 'political', set in train by the 1968 events is a key theme here, and the work of the best-known French intellectual figures of the time both illuminates and is illuminated by it. But it is not just a new reading of already familiar...
