French XX Bibliography
This annual French XX Bibliography provides the most complete listing available of books, articles, and book reviews concerned with French literature since 1885.

The bibliography is divided into three major divisions: general studies, author subjects (arranged alphabetically), and cinema. Number 59 in the series contains 12,703 entries. William J.

God's Last Words
This wide-ranging book is an intellectual history of how informed readers read their Bibles over the past four hundred years, from the first translations in the sixteenth century to the emergence of fundamentalism in the twentieth century. In an astonishing display of erudition, David Katz recreates the response of readers from different eras by examining the horizon of expectations that provided the lens through which they read. In the Renaissance, says Katz, learned men rushed to apply the tools of textual analysis to the Testaments, fully confident that God's Word would open up and reveal shades of further truth. During the English Civil War, there was a symbiotic relationship between politics and religion, as the practical application of the biblical message was hammered out.

Chevalerie du soir
En bonne logique, la carrière de Bonaparte devrait se terminer à Malte. C'est la plus forte place de la Méditerranée, et la flotte anglaise croise dans les parages. Or, qu'arrive-t-il ? Sans même esquisser un combat, les chevaliers se rendent au général français. Certains d'entre eux, comme fascinés par un enchanteur, le suivent jusqu'en Égypte. D'autres, réfugiés à Saint-Pétersbourg, tentent de restaurer leur ordre sous la houlette d'un tsar fou. Puis, le traité d'Amiens leur rend leur île. Mais sauront-ils saisir cette dernière chance ? Autour d'eux, les convoitises se déchaînent. Pour quelques années, l'escale oubliée est devenue le nombril du monde. Au fil de ces pages, c'est l'un des plus curieux chapitres de l'histoire européenne, et l'un des plus lourds de sens, qui resurgit pour le plaisir des yeux, avec ses aventuriers et ses femmes du monde, ses esclaves et ses Corsaires (tous vrais). Quelque part entre les Trois Mousquetaires et le Désert des Tartares, Nicolas Saudray a écrit le roman d'une île magique, d'une chevalerie , dont nous garderons toujours la nostalgie.
The Middle East
