Negritude
Doit-on considérer la Négritude comme un mouvement ancré dans la fin de la période coloniale et sur lequel il n’y a plus lieu de revenir ? C’est une des questions que le colloque qui s’est tenu à l’Université des West Indies à la Barbade en l’honneur du centenaire de la naissance de Senghor s’efforce d’explorer. Lylian Kesteloot nous rappelle encore récemment dans son étude Césaire et Senghor un pont sur l’Atlantique l’importance de ce mouvement qui entre les années trente et soixante a participé à la naissance de la littérature africaine. La question du particularisme que le mot Négritude implique et de son opposé l’universel sera largement débattue dans...
Isabelle of Bombay
This riveting novel tells the story of Isabelle, a beautiful child, who grows up in the tempestuous city of Bombay. It takes readers through Isabelle's emotional roller-coaster of a journey - her childhood, her starry-eyed romance, the killing of innocence as she endures a traumatic marriage, and her final tryst with true love in Canada. The book is richly evocative and entertaining in its portrayal of Bombay. But saddened by the overwhelming poverty, depressed over the disparities and contradictions of society, and disappointed by the taboos of colour and gender, Isabelle leaves her people and the city she loves to migrate to Canada, a new land. Incredibly, two celestial beings follow and guide Isabelle, from above and afar, throughout her life. They don't intervene actively but subtly guide her toward contentment and love. The real merges with the surreal. Caution: You may not be able to put this book down! You won't forget Isabelle - her joys, her pain and torment, her love, her devotion to her family and her sacrifices for it. And you will envy Isabelle for her two cosmic Samaritans! In sum, Colleen Ansley's debut novel is a gem! - S R Madhu, writer-editor, Chennai, India

The 45 revised full papers presented together with 3 invited talks were carefully revised and selected from 153 submissions. The papers address all current issues in automated reasoning, computational logic, programming languages and their applications and are organized in topical sections on automata, linear arithmetic, verification knowledge representation, proof theory, quantified constraints, as well as modal and temporal logics.
Frontiers of Combining Systems
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Symposium on Frontiers of Combining Systems, FroCoS 2013, held in Nancy, France, in September 2013. The 20 revised full papers presented together with 4 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 33 submissions. FroCoS'13 seeks to offer a common forum for research in the general area of combination, modularization and integration of systems, with emphasis on logic-based ones, and of their practical use. Typical topics of interest include following subjects: combinations of logics such as combined predicate, temporal, modal or epistemic logics, combinations and modularity in ontologies, combination of decision, procedures, of satisfiability, procedures and of constraint solving techniques, combinations and modularity in term rewriting, integration of equational and other theories into deductive systems, combination of deduction systems and computer algebra, integration of data structures into constraint logic programming and deduction, and modularizing programs and specifications.
