Le dessin syncopé aborde l'expérience de la syncope et ses représentations dans le dessin contemporain. Il prolonge la recherche initiée lors du colloque La Syncope, expériences du ravissement qui s'est tenu à l'Université de Picardie Jules Verne le 17 mars 2016. Les oeuvres, regardées à partir des définitions de l'angoissant vertige, présentent les voltefaces d'une ligne dessinée jouant de dissipations et d'abandons. Leur analyse ponctue l'espace textuel divisé en notices, chacune guidée par un verbe liant l'acte à l'oeuvre achevée, son processus de création à son interprétation. Le dessin syncopé est-il une représentation éprouvée du malaise ? Est-il la traversée d'un événement brutal dont il livrerait paradoxalement le dessaisissement ? Des artistes comme Cathryn Boch, Christoph Girardet, Oscar Munoz, José Maria Sicilia, Yazid Oulab, chantalpetit, pour n'en citer que quelques-uns, élaborent dans leurs oeuvres la relève face à la chute, au choc, à l'effacement ou encore à la disparition. Chute et envol font en effet la tension antithétique de la syncope.

Mimi Wallingford, Great Granddaughter of Adelaide Wallingford, has the life that most girls dream about, playing Juliet opposite teen heartthrob Troy Summer on Broadway in Shakespeare's famous play. Unfortunately, she has no desire to be an actress, a fact her mother can't seem to grasp. But when she and Troy are magically thrust into Shakespeare's Verona, they experience the feud between the Capulets and Montagues first hand. Mimi realizes that she and Juliet have more in common than Shakespeare's script-they are both fighting for futures of their own choosing. Mimi feels compelled to help her and with Troy's unexpected help, hopes to give Shakespeare's most famous tragedy a happily-ever-after-ending.
Anthropologists have written a great deal about the coastal adaptations and seafaring traditions of Pacific Islanders, but have had much less to say about the significance of rivers for Pacific island culture, livelihood and identity. The authors of this collection seek to fill that gap in the ethnographic record by drawing attention to the deep historical attachments of island communities to rivers, and the ways in which those attachments are changing in response to various forms of economic development and social change. In addition to making a unique contribution to Pacific island ethnography, the authors of this volume speak to a global set of issues of immense importance to a world in w...

Denmark, Tennessee, stinks. The smell hits Horatio Wilkes the moment he pulls into town to visit his best friend, Hamilton Prince. And it's not just the paper plant and the polluted river that's stinking up Denmark: Hamilton's father has been poisoned and the killer is still at large. Why? Because nobody believes that Rex Prince was murdered. Nobody except Horatio and Hamilton. Now they need to find the killer, but it won't be easy. It seems like everyone in Denmark is a suspect. Motive, means, opportunity--they all have them. But who among them has committed murder most foul?
