« 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...
This book presents 123 calling cards of artists (painters, sculptors, photographers, architects, graphic designers, illustrators etc.) from the 18th century to the present day.

This book revisits and analyses the early French Revolution's epic struggle against the Bourbon monarchy and its symbolic culture.
This book, a companion to the author's Pierrot: A Critical History of a Mask (Princeton, 1978), provides a detailed history of nineteenth-century French pantomime, from the feeries of Jean-Gaspard Deburau at the Theatre des Funambules to the cabaret entertainments of Georges Wague at the height of la Belle Epoque. Originally published in 1985. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
