L'Ordre maçonnique a connu un essor exceptionnel en France depuis 1732, date à laquelle des officiers de marine irlandais fondèrent une loge, L'Anglaise, à Bordeaux. On découvre dans ce dictionnaire biographique que nombreux furent les marins francs-maçons à travers le monde. Près de 5000 d'entre eux ont été retrouvés, dans les marines d'Etat et celles de commerce, de la pêche à la baleine mais également, malheureusement, dans le trafic triangulaire.
Los detractores y los aduladores de la masonería se beneficiaron de casi tres siglos para surtir las librerías de libelos, panfletos y hagiografías. No fue hasta el último cuarto del siglo XX cuando el fenómeno masónico empezó a ser investigado desde una metodología académica, siendo esta difusión al público en general minoritaria aún en la actualidad. Las masonerías y los masones interactuaron en el complejo conjunto de las redes sociales por el mundo entero. Esta realidad alimentó el miedo a una "internacional masónica" oculta en las esferas del poder. La Historia de Asturias del siglo XX ofreció durante la II República española, en particular durante la Revolución de Oc...
Winner at the 2014 International Latino Book Awards. Little Ivan has so many fears that he has forgotten to dream. An encouraging story that will kindle the strength to overcome our fears. The sea, mist, loud noises... Ivan’s afraid of everything! There are times when he dreams about having great adventures and visiting far-away lands, Ivan knew that it would be impossible for him. You see, Ivan’s secret is that, ever since he was little, he had always been frightened of things. And with all those frights and shivers, his dreams of having great adventures and visiting faraway places seem more and more unlikely. One afternoon in August, on Ivan’s seventh birthday, an unexpected visitor arrived at his house. It was his Uncle Harry, who had returned from one of his long journeys around Africa and had come to wish Ivan a happy birthday. Could an unexpected visitor help him overcome his deepest fears? Could an old African song change his life forever?
Publisher Description
Presentamos aquí a tres escritores, Rafael Chirbes, Juan Goytisolo y Carlos Fuentes, aprovechando nuestro recuerdo personal y propio, pero sobre todo mostrando cómo estos rezan en el recuerdo de los medios de comunicación, la crítica y la sociedad lectora. Comenzamos por Rafael Chirbes, del recuerdo personal que de él nos queda, algo de su obra y sobre todo su destino final, sucesores y Fundación. Seguimos con Juan Goytisolo, cuya obra siempre hemos leído y admirado, pero por esa razón de escritos tan heterogéneos, ambiguos, varios y extraños (veamos ese Makbara con su mensaje de muerte y cementerio), que siempre nos han extrañado y de algún modo frenado. A ellos sumamos reflexio...
The World Justice Project (WJP) joins efforts to produce reliable data on rule of law through the WJP Rule of Law Index 2016, the sixth report in an annual series, which measures rule of law based on the experiences and perceptions of the general public and in-country experts worldwide.
