Burmese Silver from the Colonial Period
This stunning catalogue presents an exceptional collection of rare Burmese silver. Accompanied by detailed photographs and explanatory texts, this ground-breaking book proposes a new way of looking at Burmese silver. Names, dates, places, and stories - identifying the who, when, where, and what of Burmese silver has been the focus of publications on the topic. Are these questions the best way to understand silver, however ? Alexandra Green argues that they are not. Too few pieces provide reliable information about silversmiths, production locations, and dates to allow for a comprehensive understanding of the subject. Instead, a close examination of silver patterns reveals strong links with Burmese art history reaching as far back as the Bagan period (11th to 13th centuries), connections with contemporary artistic trends, and participation within the wider world of silversmithing. The first European to write about Burmese silver was H L Tilly, a colonial official from the late 19th into the early 20th century. Tasked with collecting objects for various fairs and exhibitions, he took an interest in Burmese art, publishing articles and books from the 1880s onwards. While much of what he wrote was factually inaccurate and coloured by the prejudices and stereotypes common at the time, his two volumes on Burmese silver published in 1902 and 1904 contain pictures of pieces from the early to mid 19th century. These enable a reconstruction of how silver designs evolved as the country was absorbed into the Indian Raj, and British and other Westerners became consumers of local silver products. Tilly was also correct in his interest in silver designs. Green uses the visual information from his books to describe the continuities and innovations of designs found on silver from the mid 19th through the mid 20th century, and she places these trends within local, regional, and global flows of ideas. Many studies of Burmese silver have been plagued by a lack of understanding of the Burmese context. In contrast, Green examines silver from a local perspective, drawing on Burmese texts and information that allows for a nuanced view of the motifs, designs, and patterns that appear repetitively on silver pieces. Using Graham Honeybill's collection, formed over many years, as a basis, she explores how designs and patterns circulated around the country and were innovatively combined and recombined on pieces by silversmiths producing objects for Burmese, Western, and commercial clients.

Theory and Empirical Performance. Economic Paradigm and performance in the long run (18th to 21st century), Textes en français et anglais
How industrialization happened and how economic development started ? This book approaches industrialization and economic development globally, taking into account the emerging economies represented by BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) and MIST (Mexico, Indonesia, South Korea, and Turkey), together with emerging nations in Latin America and Africa. The experiences of the Western European forerunners, along with the paths taken by the United States, Canada, Japan, and Central and Eastern European countries, are revisited under a new light of historical studies.

Généralités
Women's voices. echoes of life experiences in the alps and the plain (17th -19th centuries). Actors, Networks, and Socio-Cultural Activities
The volume is centred on the voices of women belonging to various generations, religious faiths and social classes, and presents a range of possible life courses for women in the Alps during the ancien régime and the early 19th century. Focusing on complex lived experiences that have emerged froma gender-conscious reading of the sources, the contributions illustrate how migration led women to take on roles of responsibility, or to follow their husbands in their careers as artists, traders and businessmen. There also emerges a widespread literacy that is combined with practical skills andknowledge marked by biological, legal and religious preconceptions : features that permeated the communities studied, where ties of family, religion and patronage prevail upon the dichotomy of public sphere/private sphere.

New worlds
"New Worlds" presents a selection of five outstanding nautical atlases known as portolan charts, or "portalans".These historic documents are the work of eminent scholars from Majorca, Lisbon, Le Havre, and Amsterdam. Cartographers by trade, and sometimes also skilled illuminators, they mapped what was the most probable imago mundi for their time, each exemplar crafting a fascinating visual chronicle. Jean-Yves Sarazin, head of Charts and Maps at the Bibliothèque Nationale de France, scrutinizes thèse charts or atlases, and situates them in the great history of European discoveries and voyages from the early 14th to the late 17th century, from the Portuguese reconnaissance of the coasts of Africa, through the adventures of Columbus,Vespucci, and Magellan, to the Dutch voyages in the Pacific and Australia.The book's many colour reproductions are alive with picturesque details: camel caravans in the heart ofAsia, Portuguese andArab ships sailing in the Indian Ocean, wild beasts or chimaera, countless exotic plants, naval battles, and not least the frequent strangeness of the indigenous people.

Thomas Carlyle 1981
Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881), essayist, biographer, historian, philosopher, translator, literary and social critic, was one of the great intellectual forces of his period, indispensable to our understanding of Victorian Britain and the 19th century in general. Scholars from Canada, France, Germany, Great Britain, Sweden and the United States assembled at the Scottish Studies Centre of the University of Mainz in Germersheim for the International Thomas Carlyle Centenary Symposium 1981. Their papers, published in this volume, open up a new - European - dimension of Carlyle's personality, work and thought. They offer evidence that the subject is not exhausted, quite the reverse, and that in many aspects Carlyle is as topical today as in his own time.

From scribble to cartoon. Drawings from Bruegel to Rubens
In this exhibition, the Museum Plantin-Moretus shows the 80 most beautiful old master drawings from Flemish collections. From scribble to cartoon : Drawings from Bruegel to Rubens in Flemish Collections (Van Crabbelinge tot Carton : Tekeningen van Bruegel tot Rubens in Vlaamse Collecties) gives an astonishing and representative overview of the art of drawing in our regions in the 16th and 17th centuries. In 2020, the Flemish government placed a large number of old master drawings on their masterpiece list, including rare artworks by Frans Floris, Peter Paul Rubens, Anthony Van Dyck, Jacques Jordaens, Otto van Veen, Jan Fijt and many more. The majority of these masterpieces are kept in the Museum Plantin-Moretus. The museum takes the official recognition of these drawings as masterpieces as an opportunity to put its unique collection in the spotlight. The exhibition presents an overview that illustrates who, why and how people drew in our regions in the 16th and 17th centuries

Nietzsche and the End of Freedom
Nietzsche's writing is not some game of 'freeplay' and terms like 'intertextuality' are useless in discussing its influence. This study takes Nietzsche, then Kafka's Trial, Thomas Mann's Death in Venice, Heinrich Mann's Man of Straw, Rilke's Malte Laurids Brigge and Musil's Törless. It argues that Nietzsche mediates and modernises the dilemmas of Romanticism and that a properly differentiated account of his literary reception can illuminate the dynamics of German culture on the eve of the Great War.

Grotesques. Fantasy Portrayed, édition bilingue anglais-néerlandais
At the end of the 15th century, the underground ruins of Emperor Nero's famous palace were discovered in Rome : the Domus Aurea. The walls were painted with sumptuous symmetrical decorations teeming with a host of bizarre animals and mythical creatures. This was the beginning of a new visual language, which was known as 'grotesque' after the site found in 'grotto-like' ruins. Hans Vredeman de Vries and Cornelis Floris spread the grotesque style with its endless variations through their printed designs. In the 16th century, grotesque ornaments became popular not only in painting and architecture, but also in glass painting, metalsmithing and book printing. Today we still link the term 'grotesque' to the capricious, bizarre, monstrous - but also to the caricatural and laughable. Bosch and Bruegel were the great pioneers of the grotesque in printmaking with their fantastic drolleries. James Ensor, Fred Bervoets, René De Coninck, Carll Cneut and others are part of a long tradition of artists who were, and still are, inspired by the grotesque : both as a concept and as a figural style.

Les 12th et 15th Air Forces
Mobilisée le 20 août 1942 aux Etats-Unis, la 12th US Army Air Force fut envoyée dans un premier temps en Grande Bretagne avant de partir pour l'Afrique du Nord où elle participa activement à l'opération "Torch", le débarquement allié en Algérie et au Maroc qui débuta le 8 novembre 1942. Après avoir contribué au départ des forces de l'Axe en Tunisie, les avions de la 12th Air Force, chasseurs, bombardiers moyens et lourds, prirent ensuite part au débarquement en Sicile en juillet 1943, puis à ceux d'Italie, dans les mois suivants. Outre son action constante dans la Péninsule, la 12th AF joua également un rôle non négligeable lors du débarquement en Provence qui débuta le 15 août 1944. Ses groupes de bombardiers légers et de chasseurs-bombardiers basés en Corse et en Sardaigne poursuivirent ensuite leurs opérations en France et dans le nord de l'Italie, suivant la progression des Alliés vers le nord jusqu'à la reddition des forces allemandes d'Italie, le 29 avril 1945. La 15th Air Force fut formée le 1er novembre 1943 pour opérer sur le front méditerranéen, ses groupes de chasse et de bombardement - certains d'entre eux provenant de la 12th AF - étant basés essentiellement dans le sud de l'Italie. Ses principaux objectifs étaient les raffineries de pétrole et les usines de construction aéronautique adverses et on estime que, par son action, le réseau de transport ennemi fut paralysé sur plus de la moitié de l'Europe occupée, tandis que l'activité de raffinage était réduite de plus de la moitié et la production des chasseurs divisée par trois. Après avoir soutenu l'avance alliée en Italie lors des batailles d'Anzio, de Monte Cassino et de Rome, la 15th AF fut chargée, à la fin du conflit, du rapatriement de nombreux prisonniers de guerre avant d'être finalement dissoute le 15 septembre 1945.

Etudes sur l'histoire et l'archéologie de Lydie de la période proto-lydienne à la fin de l'Antiquité. Textes en français et anglais
Lydia, lying between the Aegean coast and the Anatolian plateau, has been associated since Antiquity with the Pactolus river, which carried gold from the Tmolus mountain, and with the wealth of Croesus. Populated by Lydians and Maeonians, and marked by the presence of Persians, Greeks, Romans, and Byzantines, it has attracted the attention of researchers since the end of the 18th century. This book aims to cover the chronology of Lydian studies from the protohistoric period to the beginning of the Byzantine period and to bring together the contributions of international researchers and scholars from a wide range of disciplines that includes history, archeology, epigraphy, and numismatics, and from different perspectives. The various studies discuss society, social structures, military aspects, economy, religion, arts, architecture, and material culture. This diachronic approach makes it possible in particular to question continuity and discontinuity between the Hellenistic, Roman, and Byzantine periods, as well as with those that preceded them.

The German Molière Revival and the Comedies of Hugo von Hofmannsthal and Carl Sternheim
Although they have yet to be treated together in a comparative study, Hugo von Hofmannsthal and Carl Sternheim had a number of points of convergence in their respective searches for a modern form for the serious comedy. This study documents the collegial relationship between the two authors - in part with previously unpublished archival material -, analyses their respective treatments of Molière's comedies and places this in the context of Molière's reception in the German-speaking countries since the 17th century. What emerges is a new view of the comedies of Hofmannsthal and Sternheim, which sees both dramatists applying the same technique of countermodelling Molière's constellations of comedic figures - a modern critical re-appraisal of the traditional comedic type character.

Shakespeare's Reception in 18th Century Italy
The history of Shakespeare's reception in 18th century Italy is scanty and fragmentary. The present study attempts to join the scattered fragments of the mosaic together and to interpret the resulting picture in the light of current theories of comparative literature. Hamlet has been chosen as an exemplary case in Shakespearian production because it is associated with the very first milestones in Shakespeare's introduction into the Italian literary system. Hamlet also exemplifies on the one hand Italy's cultural indebtedness to France in the field of Shakespearian translation (the first Italian staging of a Shakespearian play was a Hamlet translated from Ducis' adaptation), and, on the other, the need for Northern European literary works to undergo profound changes before they could be assimilated in Italy. The process of Shakespeares's reception in 18th century Italy was made even more tortuous by a missed opportunity, again concerning Hamlet. The first complete Italian translation of the play by Alessandro Verri has never to this day been staged or published ; its impact on the development of Italian literature was only indirect through its influence on Verri's own creative works, which finally contributed to the birth of the Italian Romantic movement.

Relevés de mise en scène (1686-1823). L'Homme à bonne fortune, Le Joueur, Le Distrait (Comédie-Française)
Trois comédies sont éditées dans la présente édition accompagnées de deux relevés de mise en scène : L'Homme à bonne fortune de Michel Baron, Le Joueur et Le Distrait de Jean-François Regnard. Les différentes versions montrent le rapport à un texte ancien ainsi que les enjeux relatifs à la problématique de la remise ? c'est-à-dire d'une pièce entrée dans le répertoire qui n'a pas été jouée depuis un certain temps et qui peut bénéficier ou non d'une modification ou d'une nouvelle mise en scène. La superposition des relevés et les différentes strates de mise en scène formées par celle-ci, laissent apparaître clairement ce que peut être la génétique de la représentation. / This edition gathers three 17th-century comedies and two accounts of their productions by the Comédie-Française. It highlights how 18th-century theatre companies approached plays that had not been produced for a while – revealing the stage as a palimpsest and foreshadowing the inception of "modern" stage production.

Gustave Moreau. The Fables
Gustave Moreau (1826-1898) is one of the most brilliant and enigmatic artists associated with the French Symbolist movement. This book accompanies an exhibition of some of the most extraordinary works he ever made, unseen in public for over a century. Moreau's watercolours of the Fables of Jean de La Fontaine (1621-1695) were created between 1879 and 1885 for the art collector Antony Roux and their stylistic range encompasses historicism and the picturesque, orientalist fantasies and near-abstract chromatic experiments. They were exhibited to great acclaim in Paris in the 1880s and in London in 1886, where critics compared the artist to Edward Burne-Jones. One critic commented on Moreau's ' keen apprehension of the weird. ' There were originally 64 works in the series, which was subsequently acquired by Miriam Alexandrine de Rothschild (1884-1965), but nearly half were lost during the Nazi era. The surviving works have not been exhibited since 1906 and they have only ever been published in black and white. This book is the first to reproduce them in colour - many shown actual size. Created at the height of the French 19th-century revival of watercolour, the variety of subject matter and technique, their colouristic effects and the sophistication of Moreau's storytelling, will be a revelation to readers. Preparatory drawings for the Fables, including animal studies made from life in the Jardin des Plantes demonstrate the wide-ranging research that informed Moreau's visions. Prints after Moreau's Fables by Félix Bracquemond (1833-1914) translate the jewel-like colours into monochrome in some of the most innovative etchings of the age, while the most delicate effects of the watercolours were also transformed into vitreous enamels. In-depth accounts of each watercolour, explaining the story and exploring Moreau's response to it. The introduction will place the series in the long history of illustrations of La Fontaine's canonical work, whose sources include Aesop's fables and traditional European and Asian tales, as well as considering Moreau in the context of his own, turbulent, times.

Moyen Age - Critique littérair
Voyages philologiques entre antiquite et moyen age. receptions latine s de la medecine grecque. Echoes of Life Experiences in the Alps and the Plain (17TH -19TH Centuries)
Chacun à sa manière, les articles réunis dans ce volume sont des " vagabondages " dans l'espace et dans le temps à la recherche d'une pensée médicale grecque que les Latins ont honorée en lui donnant une nouvelle vie occidentale ; par la méthode appliquée, ce sont plus précisément des " voyages philologiques ", la philologie étant le commun dénominateur de l'ensemble. Terme ésotérique et redouté par les étudiants, la philologie n'a pas toujours eu les faveurs de l'imaginaire collectif, évoquant parfois une érudition dépassée et inutilement élitiste. Qualifiée de discipline auxiliaire de l'histoire, la philologie n'est pas une science exacte qui fournirait toujours des réponses assurées, elle est plutôt une simple technique dont les résultats varient au cas par cas : pour l'Antiquité et le Moyen Age c'est l'étude de la parole écrite, sur papyrus ou parchemin ou papier. Le philologue se pose devant le document écrit avec beaucoup de respect et d'honnêteté intellectuelle : avant d'en comprendre et vérifier les contenus par une lecture le plus possible exacte, il doit situer la genèse du texte étudié dans son lieu et dans son époque ; l'étape suivante consiste à éclairer les causes qui l'ont produit et parfois à s'interroger sur les raisons de son succès. Les voyages philologiques qui, partant de la Grèce antique d'Hippocrate (Ve s. av. J.-C.) et de Galien (iie de notre ère), nous conduisent dans l'Italie médiévale de l'école de Salerne (XIIe s.) et dans l'Europe des Universités, montrent bien à quel point les cheminements de la science médicale ont été diversifiés et multiformes : suivre ces parcours permet de reconstruire au fil des siècles la formation d'un savoir qui, remarquable par sa qualité et ses proportions, dans plusieurs cas, demande encore à être découvert dans la tradition des manuscrits.

A Study of English Nautical Loanwords in the Russian Language of the Eighteenth Century
This study is intended to give as full a survey as possible of 18th century Russian nautical and shipbuilding terms which were borrowed from English. The origins of the words are discussed and the date of each word's first attestation in Russian is given. Phonetic features and peculiarities of the loanwords are described, with special reference to possible English dialectal influence. A statistical analysis is given of the semantic aspect of the borrowings, which throws some light on the nature and extent of British influence on the nascent Russian shipbuilding industry.
