Pendant que Perceval tombait : poésie (Les Herbes rouges / Poésie)
By Tania Langlais. 2020
Mourir ne dure qu’un instant. Mais la douleur, lancinante, comme les vagues, recule pour mieux frapper de nouveau, recule et…
frappe encore. «Tout cela se passe en une journée.» Une chute à cheval, le fleuve qui recrache un cadavre, «un fantôme à discipliner», une longue promenade à travers les champs, la promesse du repos. Dans ces poèmes obstinés, Tania Langlais distribue les vers comme les cartes d’un tarot. Une histoire se dessine au gré de leurs agencements. Cette histoire, c’est celle de la dernière journée de Virginia Woolf, «le plus beau suicide / de la littérature anglaise»; celle de Perceval, le mort muet de son roman Les vagues; et c’est aussi autre chose, une souffrance tenace qui ne se dévoile que par éclats. Au son du galop du cheval qui se répercute dans la mémoire, le temps comprimé déploie ses faces. Tout cela se passe en une journéeSteuerung der betrieblichen Altersversorgung in Europa: garantierte Sicherheit?

pathos, James Lawless sends his typical humorous way some of the effects of noise on contemporary society. This news is followed by noise, a decidedly dark poem that explores the devastation that uncontrolled cacophony can inflict on sentient beings.Lumière sur la Forêt Obscure

qui offre au lecteur une approche de cette grande altérité qui, souvent nous échappe. Le processus de créativité y est traité. Les influences d'autres disciplines sur l'exacerbation de la conscience y sont décrites et les méthodes d'observation qui ont déjà fait leurs preuves depuis les 100 dernières années y sont élucidées. Une attention particulière est portée à la contribution spécifique de la poésie irlandaise moderne en particulier, quant au rôle du poète dans la société. Les travaux de trois poètes non anglophones (Salinas, Lorca et Pasternak) sont évoqués en détail et leur rôle au sein de leur propre société y est examiné en vue de confirmer la perspicacité poétique avec laquelle ils s'opposent aux forces destructrices de la société qui risque de les mener à leur perte poètes et poésie. La dernière partie de l'ouvrage traite de la poésie comme d'une forme unique d'interprétation d'un monde post-moderne aride et fragmenté.Word betaal vir jou gedigte

téléphoniques et électroniques. Néanmoins, peu d’entre eux sont réellement conscients de l’influence réelle que cette surveillance a sur presque tous les aspects de leur vie quotidienne. Aujourd’hui, nous ne pouvons faire une promenade au centre-ville, assister à un cours, payer au moyen d’une carte de crédit, monter à bord d’un avion ou faire un appel sans que des données soient capturées et traitées. Où cette information s’en va-t-elle? Qui l’utilise? Qui en sort gagnant et qui en sort perdant? Est-ce que le prix à payer pour utiliser les médias sociaux et d’autres moyens de communication électronique est de desserrer notre emprise sur nos renseignements personnels? Au contraire, devrions-nous nous méfier des systèmes qui nous rendent plus que jamais visibles et, par conséquent, vulnérables aux yeux des autres? Vivre à nu est l’œuvre d’une équipe de recherche multidisciplinaire et explique comment la surveillance s’accroît – pratiquement sans que personne y porte attention – dans toutes les sphères de notre vie. En analysant les principaux moyens employés par le secteur public et le secteur privé pour recueillir, faire le suivi, analyser et échanger des renseignements au sujet des citoyens ordinaires, les auteurs de l’ouvrage ont dégagé neuf grandes tendances dans le traitement des données personnelles. D’ailleurs, collectivement, ces neuf grandes tendances soulèvent des questions pressantes au sujet de la vie privée et de la justice sociale. Cet ouvrage vise non seulement à informer, mais également à changer le cours des choses. Il cible intentionnellement un grand public : les décideurs, les journalistes, les groupes de défense des libertés civiles, les enseignants et, par-dessus tout, les lecteurs du grand public."Selected Poems

For most of his life, Victor Hugo (1802-1885) was the most famous writer in the world. His legacy includes the…
nineteenth century's most celebrated works of drama, fiction, memoir, and criticism. But in his day Hugo was know foremost as a poet-indeed the greatest French poet of the age. He wrote with passion about history, erotic experience, familial love, philosophy, nature, social justice, art, and mysticism. In this new bicentennial edition, acclaimed poet and translator Brooks Haxton offers an exquisite selection of Hugo's finest work: love poems, historical tableaux, elegy, and idyll, including his incomparable "Boaz Asleep," which Marcel Proust praised as the most beautiful poem of the nineteenth century.International Courts and the Development of International Law

of whom it is published, Tullio Treves, who combines his academic background with his practical experiences of a negotiator of international treaties and a judge of an international tribunal. It covers international public and private law related to international courts and the development of international law. Under Article 38 of its Statute, the International Court of Justice can apply judicial decisions only as a "subsidiary means for the determination of rules of law". However, there are many reasons to believe that international courts and tribunals do play quite an important role in the progressive development of international law. There are a number of decisions which are inevitably recalled as the first step, or a decisive step, in the process of the formation of a new rule of customary international law. In these cases, can the judge be considered as a subsidiary of others? Are these cases compatible with the common belief that a judge cannot create law? Is this a peculiarity of international law, which is characterized by the existence of several courts but the lack of a legislator? Do decisions by different courts lead to the consequence of a fragmented international law? This volume provides the reader with an elaboration of various questions linked to the legislative role of courts. In their choices of subjects, some contributors have taken into account the general aspects of the development of international rules through court decisions or specific sectors of international law, such as human rights, international crimes, international economic law, environmental law and the law of the sea. Others have chosen the subject of the rules on jurisdiction and procedure of international courts. The question of the courts' role in the development of areas of law different from public international law, namely private international law and European Union law, has also been considered. The information and views contained in this book will be of great value to academics, students, judges, practitioners and all others interested in the public and private international law aspects of the link between international courts and the development of international law.Corporate Criminal Liability: Emergence, Convergence, and Risk (Ius Gentium: Comparative Perspectives on Law and Justice #9)

not traditional objects of criminal law. Justified by notions of personal moral guilt, criminal norms have been judged inapplicable to fictional persons, who 'think' and 'act' through human beings. The expansion of new corporate criminal liability (CCL) laws since the mid-1990s challenges this assumption. Our volume surveys current practice on CCL in 15 civil and common law jurisdictions, exploring the legal conditions for liability, the principles and options for sanctioning, and the procedures for investigating, charging and trying corporate offenders. It considers whether municipal CCL laws are converging around the notion of 'corporate culture', and, in any case, the implications of CCL for those charged with keeping corporations, and other legal entities, out of trouble.Corporate Criminal Liability: Emergence, Convergence, and Risk (Ius Gentium: Comparative Perspectives on Law and Justice #9)

passionate scholar in the fields of international humanitarian law, international criminal law, human rights law and law in the field of arms control and disarmament. What in particular made Avril's work special, was her strong commitment with the human aspects throughout. Fourteen scholars and practitioners have contributed to this liber amicorum, which has led to a rich variety of topics within the disciplines of Avril's expertise. They all have in common that they deal with the human perspectives of the discipline of law at hand. They concentrate on the impact of the developments in international law on humans, whether they are civilians, victims of war or soldiers. This human perspective of law makes this book an appropriate tribute to Avril McDonald and at the same time a unique and valuable contribution to international legal research in the present society. A society that becomes more and more characterized by detailed legal systems, defined by institutions that may frequently lack sufficient contact with the people concerned.Armed Conflict and International Law: Liber Amicorum in Memory of Avril McDonald

considère que la poésie de Benarroch renferme la mémoire du monde alors que Jose Luis Garcia Martin pense qu'il s'agit de plus que de poèmes, il s'agit d'une référence. Témoin de son temps, Benarroch a commencé à écrire des poèmes en anglais à l'âge de 15 ans et a toujours écrit dans sa langue maternelle, l'espagnol. Il s'agit d'une nouvelle édition de « Les Litanies de l'émigré », elle inclut le poème le plus célèbre de Benarroch, qui donne son nom à cette collection. Dans ce livre, Mois Benarroch (né en 1959 au Maroc) évoque son émigration et l'art de vivre entre deux mondes, sans jamais s'intégrer.
