Septembre 1812. Napoléon, maître de l'Europe, part à la conquête de la Russie avec 600. 000 hommes. Il entre dans Moscou sans résistance, conquérant au sommet de sa gloire ... et tout s'effondre. Premier volume d'une trilogie. 1812. Apres une attaque foudroyante comme il en a le secret, Napoléon s'est enfoncé au coeur de la Russie avec une Grande Armée colossale.

900 Years of St Bartholomew's. The History, Art and Architecture of London's Oldest Parish Church
This important book presents a comprehensive history of St Bartholomew the Great, the oldest parish church in London. In 2023, the Priory Church and Hospital will celebrate the 900th anniversary of their foundation. At the heart of the Smithfield area, with its hospital, pubs, restaurants and market, is a church built when Henry I, son of William the Conqueror, was King of England. Overlooking the fields where kings confronted rebellions, knights jousted and heretics were burnt, St Bartholomew's Priory and Hospital played a central role in the history of medieval London. Partially torn down by order of Henry VIII during the Dissolution of the Monasteries, the Priory was reborn as a parish church. It served the City of London through the tumultuous years of the Reformation and the Civil War and has played host to many of London's most famous residents. William Hogarth was baptized in its font. Charles Wesley preached in its pulpit. Benjamin Franklin served as a printer's apprentice in its former Lady Chapel. John Betjeman lived across the street and memorialized it in his poetry. The history of St Bartholomew's is a tale of miraculous survival and continual renewal. It came out unscathed from the Great Fire of 1666 and the bombs dropped in Zeppelin raids in World War I and during the Blitz in World War II. Its splendid Romanesque core has been added to by each successive generation. This volume - the first comprehensive history of the Church since 1921 - will survey the art, architecture and historical significance of the City of London's oldest parish church in a scholarly, yet accessible tone. Richly illustrated, this book will appeal to those interested in the history of the City of London, in medieval and Victorian church architecture, in funerary monuments, and in the history of the Church of England.

"On liberty" by John Stuart Mill
John Stuart Mill (1806-1873), one of the most versatile thinkers of the nineteenth century, wrote on the newly emerging sciences of economics, politics and sociology. His Principles of Political Economy (1848) ran to many editions and is still read today, while his book on Utilitarianism (1863) is better known than the writings of Jeremy Bentham. On Liberty (1859) was written at a time when the Industrial Revolution, the rise of a sizeable middle class and its social influence, the growing democratisation of British politics raised questions about the place of individuals and the dangers of this new mass society. Mill placed much faith in this passionate and cogently argued plea for individual freedom, writing in his Autobiography : The liberty is likely to survive longer than anything else I have written... . The future was to prove him right, and his defence of freedom of thought and speech, of individuality and originality, later used to criticise the various instances totalitarianism in the twentieth century, is still relevant these days.

Ce nouveau livre de Petite Rose Josette est un très beau témoignage des grâces reçues du Seigneur. Dans sa jeunesse, elle ne se sentait pas aimée, elle dit que "sa pauvreté l'écrasait". La découverte de l'Amour de Dieu, qui l'aimait telle qu'elle était, sera pour elle le point de départ d'autres découvertes extraordinaires qu'elle relate ici et de grâces merveilleuses qui ont changé sa vie. Comblée de charismes, dont celui de guérison, elle raconte ses diverses expériences de l'Amour attentif de Dieu qui attend nos prières pour y répondre. Elle nous dit l'importance aussi du pardon. Elle appelle le péché "ce séparateur de Dieu". Petite Rose Josette affirme avec force que c'est l'homme qui abandonne Dieu, et pas l'inverse !

Seeing loud. Basquiat and music
During the late 1970s and early 1980s, New York City was financially and socially bankrupt, but the art and music scene was flourishing. During these years, the downtown New York music scene - no wave, hip-hop, disco funk and club culture - shaped Jean-Michel Basquiat as both a musician and an artist. This catalog for a traveling exhibition explores how Basquiat's painting has parallels in his music (sampling, cut-up, rapping), and takes a new look at his production as a writer and a poet in light of his connections with the then-emerging hip-hop culture. This beautifully illustrated exhibition catalog of rarely seen photographs and images sheds new light on Basquiat as a musician, exploring how his art and music are related, and how they reflect on his identity as a Black artist in the United States, the downtown New York music scene, and contemporary culture.

Perfect fundamental values and the development of Africa. From African Renaissance to Illumination
This book is the result of fundamental research on the thorny issue of Africa's development. It demonstrates that the development of human societies is first and foremost a resultant of true, perfect and eternal knowledge, a process of conversion of the soul to the True, the Good and the Beautiful, before becoming a quest for material and financial means. To acquire this knowledge, one must resort to all knowledge that deals with life and man, beginning with that of God who is the source of this authentic knowledge. Man, made in the image of God, if he goes back to this source, finds the universal fundamentals of perfect knowledge which open to him the path of complete and eternal knowledge. This enables him to launch victoriously into development. All human cultures have this opportunity to resort to the original sources of knowledge : Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, Islam and animism. This true and perfect knowledge sets the man in the certainties that renew his intelligence and make him a new, perfect and creative being of development. All the people who have developed have gone through this salutary way. Africa cannot be an exception to this golden rule. With the assistance of CERCUDE and OVAFOPAC.

Poet Nightingale Bharathiyar, life story of Bharathiyar
Poet Nightingale Bharathiyar Subramaniya Bharathiyar was born on 11th December 1882 in Ettayapuram, which is now part of Thoothukudi District. He died on 11th September 1921. Bharathiar was educated at a local high school where his talents as a poet were recognized even at the age of 11. He had a voracious appetite for learning ancient and contemporary Tamil literature and had a gifted intellect to derive astonishing truths from ancient poems. He was also one of the prominent leaders of the Indian independence movement. His national integration songs earned him the title "Desiya Kavi" (National Poet). His patriotic songs emphasize nationalism, unity of India, equality of men and the greatness of the Tamil language. It is a real and great pleasure for me to present this nice treatise on Poet Nightingale Bharathiyar to you. Thank you, Dr. Shuddhananda Bharati for having transmitted Poet Nightingale Bharathiyar to us. The first edition of this book is dated 1955 in Tamil. Editions ASSA, Christian Piaget

PIONEERS OF REPRESENTATION THEORY: FROBENIUS, BURNSIDE, SCHUR, AND BRAUER
The year 1897 was marked by two important mathematical events: the publication of the first paper on representations of finite groups by Ferdinand Georg Frobenius ( 1849-1917) and the appearance of the first treatise in English on the theory of finite groups by William Burnside (1852-1927). Burnside soon developed his own approach to representations of finite groups. In the next few years, working independently, Frobenius and Burnside explored the new subject and its applications to finite group theory.
They were soon joined in this enterprise by Issai Schur (1875-194 1) and some years later, by Richard Brauer (1901-1977). These mathematicians' pioneering research is the subject of this book. It presents an account of the early history of representation theory through an analysis of the published work of the principals and others with whom the principals' work was interwoven. Also included are biographical sketches and enough mathematics to enable readers to follow the development of the subject. An introductory chapter contains some of the results involving characters of finite abelian groups by Lagrange, Gauss, and Dirichlet, which were part of the mathematical tradition from which Frobenius drew his inspiration.
This book presents the early history of an active branch of mathematics. It includes enough detail to enable readers to learn the mathematics along with the history. The volume would be a suitable text for a course on representations of finite groups, particularly one emphasizing an historical point of view.

Visual Aids in the Productions of the First Piscator-Bühne 1927-28
This analysis of four major productions by Erwin Piscator, Hoppla, Rasputin, Schweik and Konjunktur (1927/28), examines the nature of his pioneering visual effects. The films, projections, cartoons, elaborate sets and machinery - here designated 'visual aids' - are shown to have a didactic function. They 'frame' the action politically, thus evolving a sophisticated new theatrical method. Comparison with Brecht's work establishes differences of emphasis in the approach to a common goal. Piscator's montage of disparate elements is seen as a vital contribution to epic theatre.

A Study of Conversion Among The Angas of Plateau State of Nigeria With Emphasis on Christianity
This is so far the most-detailed information on the Angas (Ngas), the largest ethnic group on the Jos Plateau, Nigeria. The book draws up a sketch of both the political and ecclesiastical history of the people. This is followed by socio-anthropological data about the people including a description of the traditional religion of the Angas (Ngas). The material serves as the necessary springboard for discussing the factors that were responsible for the conversion of the Angas (Ngas) people of Nigeria. The author concludes his thesis by giving a theoretical analysis of some of the theories of conversion per se and opting for a Hortonian theory as the most cogent. It is certainly an indispensable work dealing with conversion to and from any religion although in this case Christianity is used as a focus.

Mais cette vie, cette cage dorée dont elle se sent prisonnière ne lui convient plus. Et ce nouveau départ dont elle a tant besoin, c'est à New York qu'elle le prend, en colocation avec Raphaëlle, une de ses plus vieilles amies. Cependant, les problèmes ne sont jamais loin. Elle le comprend très vite en rencontrant Axel, le bad boy par excellence : un physique avantageux, une paire d'yeux noirs aussi intenses que diaboliques, un sourire à fossettes sur une dentition éclatante à se faire exploser la rétine, quatre-vingts kilos de muscles, des bras bardés de tatouages, et bien sûr il fume et roule à moto. Et accessoirement, c'est le plan cul de sa coloc. Tout les oppose et ils ne se supportent pas. Et pourtant, un soir, alors qu'elle s'était fait la promesse de ne pas tomber dans le panneau d'un mec comme lui, tout dérape entre eux.

Il y eut ici un récit. Ne subsistent plus que des notes en bas de page dont les renvois invitent le lecteur, d'une part à imaginer ce qu'était - ou ce qu'aurait pu être - ce texte et, de l'autre, à s'interroger sur les raisons de cette inexplicable disparition. Peu à peu se reconstitue la figure du personnage principal de ce roman, sans que le lecteur puisse très bien distinguer d'ailleurs si ce n'est pas son propre reflet qu'il vient à l'instant de surprendre dans le miroir d'une de ces pages. Le récit effacé n'est pas un jeu de pure forme. Dans ce silence, c'est un drame qui se joue : celui d'un homme qui, privé de mémoire, et après en être resté littéralement interdit, longtemps sans voix, lutte contre l'oubli, "la tête renversée dans les ténèbres". Ce n'est qu'en découvrant la vérité, pour lui, de la langue de ses pères, le yiddish qui a bercé son enfance et dont pourtant il ne sait rien, qu'il pourra reprendre la parole, écrire, et reconquérir ainsi tout l'espace de la page. Retrouver dans une langue passée ce qui reste d'un homme, telle est l'aventure de ce roman. Ce livre est un événement ; à travers sa composition insolite, il met pour la première fois en scène quelque chose qui n'a jamais eu lieu.
