Gluck et Piccini, 1774-1800

Autor: Gustave Le Brisoys Desnoiresterres

Número de Páginas: 476

En dépit de la résistance indignée des vieux piliers de l’Opéra, il était grand temps que notre musique reçût une impulsion qui ne pouvait lui venir que de l’extérieur, car, en France, on semblait convaincu qu’elle avait envahi tout le domaine du possible. Rameau était l’idéal : rien n’existait au-dessus ou en dehors de lui. Rameau eut du génie, et Gluck le reconnaissait, lui qui n’en accordait aux autres qu’à bon escient ; mais le génie qui sort un art de ses langes, n’est point, ne peut être celui qui lui fera faire son dernier pas. Fruit d’une sélection réalisée au sein des fonds de la Bibliothèque nationale de France, Collection XIX a pour ambition de faire découvrir des textes classiques et moins classiques dans les meilleures éditions du XIXe siècle.

Les Îles de la Miséricorde

Les Îles de la Miséricorde

Autor: Henri Queffélec

Número de Páginas: 238

En 1974, il y a tout juste 40 ans, Henri Queffélec, publiait Les Îles de la Miséricorde, revenant à la suite de Charles Le Goffic et son roman Les Pierres Vertes, sur le naufrage du Drummond Castle : le 16 juin 1896, sur la fin de son voyage de retour à Londres, un paquebot anglais de la ligne du Cap, le Drummond Castle, s’égare dans la brume. Il se figure déborder Ouessant et s’engage dans les courants du Fromveur. A 11 heures du soir, juste comme une petite fête vient de se terminer à bord, il heurte une roche. En sept ou huit minutes il coule. Il n’y aura que trois survivants, un passager et deux hommes d’équipage, recueillis le lendemain matin, le premier par un homme d’Ouessant, les deux autres par un pêcheur molénais. Un « grand naufrage » ? Ce drame, qui a bouleversé son époque, n’est pas « grand » seulement par sa soudaineté ni par le nombre des victimes, mais parce qu’il a mis en lumière, d’une étonnante façon, la solidarité humaine. Les Anglais se représentaient alors les îliens de « Petite-Bretagne » comme des gens rudes et frustes. Sans aucune recommandation extérieure, les Molénais, les Ouessantins, avaient vu spontanément ...

Renaissance Religion in Urban Scotland: The Dominican Order, 1450-1560

Renaissance Religion in Urban Scotland: The Dominican Order, 1450-1560

Autor: Janet P. Foggie

Número de Páginas: 359

In both detail and broad perspective this is a ground breaking study. It is the first book to be written on the Dominican Order in Scotland. Set in the early modern era, it opens with the place of the Dominicans within the political history of the realm, arguing that the Dominicans had an independent and self-consciously Scottish identity. Then, various aspects of their work are covered; universities, law courts, prayers for the dead. Manuscripts of anniversary foundations reveal the urban patrons of the order, from whom the friars were, it is argued, recruited. Fresh examination of the antifraternal literature in Scotland sets it in its historical context for the first time and is brought to bear on the works of John Knox.

Disciples of Light

Autor: Graham Smith

Número de Páginas: 173

Disciples of Light contains almost two hundred of the earliest known English and Scottish photographs, most of which have never been published. The volume includes all the significant photographs in the album, compiled by Sir David Brewster, an important early patron of photography. Photographs by William Henry Fox Talbot, the inventor of negative-positive paper photography, are included, as well as works by other photographers who improved upon Talbot's invention. The text discusses the context in which the album was compiled, the personalities of the photographers, and the groups of specific images that it contains. Numerous comparative illustrations are included, as well as a checklist of all photographic images, a bibliography, and an index of all proper names and place names.

The Evolution of American Investigative Journalism

The Evolution of American Investigative Journalism

Autor: James L. Aucoin

Número de Páginas: 256

Beginning with America’s first newspaper, investigative reporting has provided journalism with its most significant achievements and challenging controversies. Yet it was an ill-defined practice until the 1960s when it emerged as a potent voice in newspapers and on television news programs. In The Evolution of American Investigative Journalism, James L. Aucoin provides readers with the first comprehensive history of investigative journalism, including a thorough account of the founding and achievements of Investigative Reporters and Editors (IRE). Aucoin begins by discussing in detail the tradition of investigative journalism from the colonial era through the golden age of muckraking in the 1900s, and into the 1960s. Subsequent chapters examine the genre’s critical period from 1960 to 1975 and the founding of IRE by a group of journalists in the 1970s to promote investigative journalism and training methods. Through the organization’s efforts, investigative journalism has evolved into a distinct practice, with defined standards and values. Aucoin applies the social-moral development theory of Alasdair MacIntyre—who has explored the function, development, and value of...

The Beginning and the End of the World

The Beginning and the End of the World

Autor: Robert Crawford

Número de Páginas: 373

In a work of spectacular imagination and remarkable synthesis, poet Robert Crawford celebrates St Andrews, the first town in the world to have its people, buildings and natural environment thoroughly documented through photography. The Beginning and the End of the World tells the stories of several pioneering Scottish photographers, linking their work to one of the nineteenth century's most scandalous and hotly debated publications. Here is the extraordinary intellectual life of an eccentric society rich in apocalyptically-minded Victorian inventors and authors whose work has had an international impact. The protagonists include a very quarrelsome professor, a cello-playing ex-military golfer, a notorious scientist, a married couple coping with mental breakdown and a physician obsessed with sewage. In paying full attention to these people's inter-relationship, implicitly and explicitly this book suggests that their lasting legacies may have a bearing on our own arguments about environmental sustainability and the possibility of largescale extinction.
