« L’artiste non seulement porte en soi l’humanité, mais il en reproduit l’histoire dans la création de son œuvre : d’abord du trouble, une vue générale, les aspirations, l’éblouissement, tout est mêlé (époque barbare) ; puis l’analyse, le doute, la méthode, la disposition des parties (l’ère scientifique) ; enfin, il revient à la synthèse première, plus élargie dans l’exécution. Si l’humanité doit se développer à la manière d’une œuvre, conçue par la Providence, comme elle est loin encore, miséricorde ! de cette troisième phase. » (Gustave Flaubert) Ce livre présente les pensées et les réflexions de Gustave Flaubert, l’un des plus grands écrivains français.

Aus dem Vorwort: ›Digital und nachhaltig sind zwei Wörter, die im 21. Jahrhundert in aller Munde sind. Sie kennzeichnen unser Jahrhundert und beeinflussen unsere Lebenseinstellung, unsere Bilder und Gedanken. Sie prägen folglich auch unsere Kunstwerke. Aus diesem Grunde trägt mein dritter Lyrikband den Titel »digital – nachhaltig«.‹ Leseprobe: Schlagartige Beschränkung auf wenig Raum; in meinen Gedanken reise ich nun um die Welt, schont immerhin die Umwelt. Erzwungener Beitrag aller für mehr Nachhaltigkeit. Überfahren werden dabei auch weniger Schneckenhäuser. In ein Schneckenhaus verwandelt sich mein Haus, ist nicht nur Haus, auch zugleich Arbeitsplatz, für die Kinder gar Schule und Spielplatz, Kino, Konzertsaal und Theater an einem Platz; hoffentlich endet es nicht als Schlachthaus!

This book explains the Saudi decision to launch a direct military intervention in Yemen in 2015 by comparing it with the monarchy’s response to Egyptian intervention into Yemen in 1962. It does so through the lens of domestic politics by tracing the monarchy’s response to the opposition in both time periods, and how this was informed by the different regional contexts of the 1960s and the 2011 Arab Spring. The study argues that Saudi Arabia enhanced its own institutions, including a pan-Islamic ideological justification to rule, in response to aggression from Egypt and its revolutionary pan-Arab ideology. This contributed to a relatively cautious Saudi foreign policy in response to regional threats from Arab nationalism, along with a strategy of co-optation within the kingdom. In contrast, the non-ideological threat embodied in the Arab Spring posed a more existential danger to Saudi legitimacy. The new crown prince manipulated the regime’s sense of anxiety from this to consolidate power through further scapegoating of the Shi’a minority, exacerbated tensions with foreign rivals, and, most blatantly, the 2015 intervention in Yemen. Comparing Saudi foreign policy changes from the Arab nationalist period to the post-Arab Spring period, this volume is a valuable resource for scholars and students interested in political science, history, international relations and Middle East politics.

Selected from the Caroline F. Schimmel Collectionof Women in the American Wilderness, these one hundred and forty-five books, photographs, manuscripts, and memorabilia by one hundred and one women and one man, dating from 1682 to 2015, reflect the sweep of women''s experiences in the American wilderness. They range from Metamorphosis insectorum Surinamensium (1705), Maria Sibylla Merian''s monumental study of the flora and fauna of Surinam, hand-printed and probably hand-colored by her, to sharpshooter and entertainer Annie Oakley''s travel trunk and gloves, and a souvenir envelope with a one-inch red heart through which she shot from a distance of twenty feet. This is the revised second edition of the full-color catalogue that documents an exhibition of the same name.

This book provides a state-of-the-art survey of intonation and prosodic structure. Taking a phonological perspective, it shows how morpho-syntactic constituents are mapped to prosodic constituents according to well-formedness conditions. Using a tone-sequence model of intonation, it explores individual tones and how they combine, and discusses how information structure affects intonation in several ways, showing tones and melodies to be ''meaningful'' in that they add a pragmatic component to what is being said. The author also shows how despite a superficial similarity, languages differ in how their tonal patterns arise from tone concatenation. Lexical tones, stress, phrase tones, and boundary tones are assigned differently in different languages, resulting in great variation in intonational grammar, both at the lexical and sentential level. The last chapter is dedicated to experimental studies of how we process prosody. The book will be of interest to advanced students and researchers in linguistics, and particularly in phonological theory.

Concebido a partir de uma pesquisa de mestrado em educação, desenvolvida em 2012 na Universidade Estadual de Campinas, este trabalho objetiva ampliar a discussão do racismo na educação levando em conta o olhar da criança sobre essa construção. Trata-se de um livro que visa aproximar o leitor das representações sociais que a criança negra constrói acerca da escola e de si em função do seu pertencimento racial. o trabalho pretendeu dar voz às crianças negras para entender como o racismo, ao qual elas são submetidas cotidianamente, afeta a construção da identidade delas e o modo pelo qual a mesma vivência a instituição de ensino que muitas vezes é conivente com as práticas racistas. O livro é destinado não só aos profissionais da educação que têm o grande dever de construir uma escola sem racismo, mas também aos pais e à comunidade em geral, que ainda não compreendem ou que querem entender melhor como as práticas discriminatórias operam no cotidiano escolar da criança, hierarquizando as relações sociais e afetando duramente a autoimagem da criança negra e não favorecendo um ambiente de valorização das diferenças.

colouring book for adults.

Published in 1893 "A WOMAN''S PHILOSOPHY OF LOVE" is the outcome of thirty-five years of thought, study, and experience. It is not a book for babes, nor possibly for persons of a darkened and prurient mind; but it is believed that there is, both in this country and elsewhere, a large and growing class of cultivated and thoughtful people, who see in the relations between men and women, the elementary principle of all civil order, the keynote of all social progress, and who will welcome a thoughtful and dispassionate discussion of some of those vexed questions of right and priority, which are forcing themselves into every field of thought and labor in Christendom. Such a discussion, if it be at all thorough, must necessarily include some topics which it is difficult to present without offence; but the author has at least conscientiously endeavored to do justice to the truth, without disregarding those principles of delicacy which are rightly recognized as the safeguards of society. The measure of her success, it must be left for the public to decide.

This early work by Caroline F. Spurgeon was originally published in 1935 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. ''Shakespeare''s Imagery and What it Tells Us'' is an in-depth work on the example, function, and use of imagery in the work of the great playwright. Caroline Spurgeon was born on 24 October 1869, in India. She was educated at Cheltenham Ladies College, England and at King''s College, London and also University College London. In 1901 she became a member of the staff of Bedford College, London, and wrote two thesis on Chaucer. The first in 1911 which she wrote in Paris, ''Chaucer devant la critique'', and the second, written in London in 1929, ''500 years of Chaucer criticism and allusion.'' In 1935, Spurgeon wrote the pioneer study on the use of images in William Shakespeare''s Work, called ''Shakespeare''s Imagery, and what it tells us.'' In it she analyses the different types of images and motifs he uses in his plays. Spurgeon was also responsible for launching the well regarded English literature curriculum at the University of London.

Where is American Literature? offers a spirited and compelling argument for rethinking the way we view American literature in relation to the nation while powerfully demonstrating why it continues to matter in a global age.

The prefrontal cortex is implicated in the majority of higher order processes of the primate brain. This region is especially important to the study of human evolution, because it is precisely the complex cognitive and socio-emotional processes of the prefrontal cortex that are thought to characterize uniquely human behavior. Here I will explore the role of the prefrontal cortex in the evolution of the social brain in humans. Great Apes, as the extant representatives of the ancestral lineages closely related to our own hominin lineage, are extremely useful to study in a comparative context with humans in order to gain insight into the neuroanatomical changes implicated in the evolution of social cognition, and such findings will be reviewed here. Human neurological pathologies with distinct social phenotypes are also a powerful area of study in the evolution of the social brain, because comparative studies of pathological individuals with typically developing controls allows for the possibility to associate neural correlates with specific social behaviors that may have been acted upon during the course of human brain evolution. I will focus on three such pathologies: Autism Spectrum Disorder, schizophrenia, and Williams Syndrome. Each of the pathologies have specific social phenotypes that suggest abnormalities of social functions that would have been critical to the evolution of the social brain. Lastly, I will present the findings of an original comparative research investigation of the prefrontal cortex in Williams Syndrome, and discuss the possible evolutionary implications of my findings.
