Alain Breton
Quelle idée de s'appeler Breton sans se réclamer sans cesse du surréalisme ! Quel destin d'être poète et éditeur et revuiste comme Jean, son père ! Et que dire de l'oncle Michel, pour toujours génial fondateur de Poésie 1 ! Alain Breton, poète trop effacé ? Poète ? Il suffit de le lire pour en être convaincu. Il a commencé à être publié en 1979, certes, mais c'est surtout en ce début de vingt-et-unième siècle qu'il a trouvé son "ton" exceptionnel, sa modernité de tripoteur de secret, chantant la femme cosmopolite ("ma métisse /Ma basilique bouillante d'huile", ou encore : "Beau corps / Belle boue, / De l'ombre /La bouche nous sépare / Ou nous fonde sans fin." Trop effacé le barde Alain Breton ? En effet, il est l'architecte inspiré de nombreuses anthologies, il est hic et nunc "sourcier ès poésie et découvreur de poètes", mais sa propre poésie, qui la met sous les projecteurs ? Qui défend cette façon unique d'écrire au plus près du fatum humain d'aujourd'hui ? Nous, pardi. Et nous en sommes fiers.

Tedlock's photographs and diagrams accompany the text, capturing nuances not apparent in the dialogue alone. He also provides an introduction and commentary that explains the historical events compressed into the play, the Spanish influence on the Mayan dramatic tradition, and the cultural and religious world preserved in this remarkable play."--BOOK JACKET.

The Death of André Breton
The Death of Andre Breton is fiction which reads like a detective novel. The suspense, unlike in the traditional plot, is offered to us here in an elliptical manner. The criss-crossing of different strata of writing makes this a story about confession, delirium, reality. Add to this the presence of what Jean Yves Collette has already introduced to us in his earlier books, eroticism/ {Claude Beausoleil, Le Devoir}
The Neighborhood as a Social and Spatial Unit in Mesoamerican Cities
Recent realizations that prehispanic cities in Mesoamerica were fundamentally different from western cities of the same period have led to increasing examination of the neighborhood as an intermediate unit at the heart of prehispanic urbanization. This book addresses the subject of neighborhoods in archaeology as analytical units between households and whole settlements. The contributions gathered here provide fieldwork data to document the existence of sociopolitically distinct neighborhoods within ancient Mesoamerican settlements, building upon recent advances in multi-scale archaeological studies of these communities. Chapters illustrate the cultural variation across Mesoamerica, includin...

The Gifted Passage
In this thought-provoking book, preeminent scholar Stephen Houston turns his attention to the crucial role of young males in Classic Maya society, drawing on evidence from art, writing, and material culture. The Gifted Passage establishes that adolescent men in Maya art were the subjects and makers of hieroglyphics, painted ceramics, and murals, in works that helped to shape and reflect masculinity in Maya civilization. The political volatility of the Classic Maya period gave male adolescents valuable status as potential heirs, and many of the most precious surviving ceramics likely celebrated their coming-of-age rituals. The ardent hope was that youths would grow into effective kings and noblemen, capable of leadership in battle and service in royal courts. Aiming to shift mainstream conceptions of the Maya, Houston argues that adolescent men were not simply present in images and texts, but central to both.
