L'homme qui croyait peindre des paysages
L'homme qui croyait peindre des paysages Une interrogation sur le moteur de la création artistique Les paysages et formes qu'un peintre tente de fixer sur une toile recèlent-ils un secret ? L'acte de peindre se suffit à lui-même ? En s'interrogeant sur cette énigme, Jean-Pierre Allix nous entraîne dans sa quête de vérité en peinture tout en explorant le sens que prend soudain un "assemblage de lignes et de formes ». Au gré d'une promenade philosophico-esthétique, il nous invite à renouveler notre regard sur la peinture, figurative ou abstraite, et sur l'ensemble de la création artistique.
Preaching in Eighteenth-century London
This book looks at the role of preaching culture in eighteenth-century England. Beyond the confines of churches, preaching was heard at political anniversaries and elections, thanksgiving and fast days, and society and charity meetings, all of which were major occasions on the English political and social calendars. Dozens of sermons were published each year, and the popularity of sermons, both from the pulpit and in print, make them crucial for understanding the role of religion in eighteenth-century society. To provide a broad perspective on preaching culture, this book focuses on print and manuscript evidence for preaching in London. London had a unique combination of preaching venues and...
Huguenots in Later Stuart Britain
The Huguenots in Later Stuart Britain is planned as one work to be published in three interlinking volumes (titles/publication dates detailed below). It examines the history of the French communities in Britain from the Civil War, which plunged them into turmoil, to the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713, after which there was no realistic possibility that the Huguenots would be readmitted to France. There is a particular focus on the decades of the 1680s and 1690s, at once the most complex, the most crucial, and the most challenging alike for the refugees themselves and for subsequent historians. The work opens with the Calvinist French-speaking communities in England caught up in the Civil War. The...
L'espace humain
Qu'est-ce que la géographie ? Est-ce une science de la terre ou une science humaine ? La vérité est qu'elle est les deux à la fois. Mais le dire est plus un point de départ énigmatique qu'un aboutissement. Car toute la difficulté réside, précisément, dans cet « à la fois ». Comment la géographie peut-elle faire appel à tant de disciplines particulières (géomorphologie, climatologie, écologie, économie, histoire, sociologie, etc.) et rester une discipline autonome et cohérente ? Et comment peut-on être géographe puisque personne ne peut prétendre maîtriser tous ces savoirs et que les liens entre le volet « naturel » et le volet « humain » de la géographie ne se ra...
Demography: Analysis and Synthesis, Four Volume Set
This four-volume collection of over 140 original chapters covers virtually everything of interest to demographers, sociologists, and others. Over 100 authors present population subjects in ways that provoke thinking and lead to the creation of new perspectives, not just facts and equations to be memorized. The articles follow a theory-methods-applications approach and so offer a kind of "one-stop shop" that is well suited for students and professors who need non-technical summaries, such as political scientists, public affairs specialists, and others. Unlike shorter handbooks, Demography: Analysis and Synthesis offers a long overdue, thorough treatment of the field. Choosing the analytical m...
