Der heilige Wikingerkönig Olav Haraldsson und sein hagiographisches Dossier (2 vols.)
The twelfth-century vita of Saint Olav, the Norwegian King Olav Haraldsson, is an outstanding example of how the intersection of power and sanctity was politically functionalised in the Middle Ages. Olav’s hagiographic dossier is transmitted in several and in part newly discovered manuscripts. Its contents depend on both the Latin and the vernacular tradition, while the milieus in which it was used range from the clerics of the High Middle Ages to the Hanseatic merchants at the end of the epoch. Fourteen studies on language and style, on codicological as well as cultic and cultural context of individual copies of the Passio Olavi, on the veneration of Olav in Scandinavia, England, Northern France and Northern Germany, on the construction of sanctity, strategies of propagating Olav’s cult and their narrative realisation, and, finally, on changes of the text, its spread and usage are presented alongside the first critical edition of the complete dossier.
Rapport d'enquête sur les conditions d'abattage des animaux de boucherie dans les abattoirs français
Créée le 22 mars 2016 à la suite de la révélation par l’association L214 de nombreux cas de maltraitance animale dans des abattoirs, la commission d’enquête a entrepris « de faire la lumière sur les boîtes noires » que constituent les 941 abattoirs de boucherie et de volaille en France, « en étant le plus exhaustifs rigoureux et objectifs possible » a expliqué son Président, Oliver Falorni.

Elle s’est également déplacée à quatre reprises de façon inopinée dans l...
The Wines of Chablis and the Yonne
Publisher description -- Rosemary George traces the history of the vineyards of Chablis, the legal steps taken to protect the quality of the wines grown in them, and describes both the traditional and the modern methods of viticulture and vinification. She covers the sale and marketing aspects of her subject, devoting a chapter to the individual négociants and growers, who are listed on a geographical basis and the more important of whom are discussed individually. Other vineyards of the Yonne (apart from Chablis), such as Irancy, Coulanges-la-Vineuse and St Bris-le-Vineux are also covered, together with their principal growers. The commercial problems which the growers of Chablis have had to face, such as the notorious imitations and price fluctuations, are discussed and a descriptive list of vintages is provided.

Last Times
A story of displacement and resistance during the early days of the Nazi occupation of France. Last Times, Victor Serge’s epic novel of the fall of France, is based—like much of his fiction—on firsthand experience. The author was an eyewitness to the last days of Paris in June 1940 and joined the chaotic mass exodus south to the unoccupied zone on foot with nothing but his manuscripts. He found himself trapped in Marseille under the Vichy government, a persecuted, stateless Russian, and participated in the early French Resistance before escaping on the last ship to the Americas in 1941. Exiled in Mexico City, Serge poured his recent experience into a fast-moving, gripping novel aimed a...
