Le livre qui voulait une maison
« Les écrivains de Fondcombe » ont été créés pour encourager et faire connaître les auteurs qui n’ont pas eu la chance d’être publiés par une grande maison d’édition. Le pari est simple : ensemble, nous représentons la puissance d’une grande maison d’édition et notre production est importante. Le succès de quelques uns peut profiter à tous. C’est dans ce cadre qu’a été créé le Concours de nouvelles Fondcombe qui permet d’encourager et de récompenser chaque année des auteurs méritants et de leur apporter une modeste notoriété, premier pas sur le chemin du succès. La plus grande récompense est, pour chacun de ces auteurs, de mettre un point final à un...

Orgasmo Song
Nel 1969 viene compiuto un passo da gigante per l'umanità. No, non lo sbarco sulla Luna degli astronauti Neil Armstrong e Buzz Aldrin, ma la pubblicazione della prima orgasmo song della storia: Je t'aime... moi non plus. Composta da Serge Gainsbourg e da questi interpretata assieme a Jane Birkin, la canzone, per la prima volta nella storia della musica, mette esplicitamente in scena un amplesso. La canzone erotica è oggetto di uno scandalo esagerato che la porta, tra gli strali della stampa e la condanna della Santa Sede, a venire messa al bando in alcune nazioni, comprese Italia e Regno Unito. Ma l'ostracismo ha come conseguenza di fornire al disco una enorme pubblicità gratuita che gli ...
Aldhelm and Sherborne
This collection of papers follows on from a conference, held in Sherborne in June 2005, marking the thirteen-hundredth anniversary of the founding of the bishopric by Aldhelm of Malmesbury. This volume looks at the work of Aldhelm and the foundation of the see of Sherborne in the wider context of his career and his world. At the Sherborne symposium, Katherine Barker commissioned a performance of Aldhelm's Carmen rhythmicum by a rune-singer and an instrumentalist. The large audience at Sherborne were transfixed by the experience of listening, with the text and a translation before them, to a musical recitation and performance of this long Latin poem, which - perhaps for the first time in a thousand years - conveyed something of its emotional power. The rhythms and message of Aldhelm's poem came alive in a remarkable way and readers of this volume can gain much of the same experience by listening to the accompanying CD, with the text and translation of the Carmen rhythmicum before them.
A New History of Ireland: Prehistoric and early Ireland
