Jean-François Comment
Né à Porrentruy (Suisse) en 1919, Jean-François Comment a choisi - plutôt que de s'installer à Bâle, Genève ou Paris - d'y passer sa vie et d'avoir un contact quotidien avec la campagne. Si depuis les années quarante, l'attachement aux paysages de sa région natale, l'Ajoie, est manifeste dans son œuvre (notamment à travers le motif de la forêt), la référence se dilue peu à peu pour laisser place à une exploration de la pure peinture. La gestualité dont elle résulte, dans les épaisseurs et les véhémences qui marquent une première période abstraite, voit sa maturation accélérée par les pratiques du vitrail en dalle de verre et du monotype. Les paysages dont s'imprègne l'artiste sont désormais réminiscences dans une peinture qui se libère de toute contrainte de modèle ou de forme. La présente monographie porte sur la production non-figurative de Jean-François Comment, des premiers pas dans l'abstraction en 1955 aux œuvres les plus récentes. Ce sont prioritairement les grands formats qui ont été retenus pour illustrer ce parcours exemplaire.

The Gondi
One of the most striking features of French government in the second half of the sixteenth century was the influence of Italians. Notwithstanding widespread French admiration for Italian culture, Italian influence at the heart of French government aroused xenophobic antagonism amongst many in French society. This study throws light on this complex relationship by offering the first detailed examination of the Gondi, one of the most influential of the Italian families active during this period. The Gondi family played a leading part in the finance, government, church and military affairs of the nation, and were indispensable counsellors to the Queen Mother, Catherine De' Medici. They were als...
Dictionary of French Family Names in North America
This dictionary contains data not only on the origins of French surnames in Québec and Acadia, a great many of which eventually spread to many parts of North America, but also on those which arrived in the United States directly from various French-speaking European and Caribbean countries. In addition to providing the etymology of the original surnames, it also lists the multifarious variants that have developed over the last four centuries. A unique feature of this work in comparison to other onomastics dictionaries is the inclusion of genealogical information on most of the Francophone migrants to this continent, something which has been rendered possible not only by the excellent record-keeping in French Canada since the very beginnings of the colony, but also through the explosion of such data on the internet in the last couple of decades. In sum, this dictionary serves the dual purpose of providing information on the meanings of French family names on the North American continent, as well as on the migrants who brought them there.
