PVP 18.95 de Gustave Flaubert Procedentes de Constantinopla, Flaubert y su amigo Maxime Du Camp emprenden en Atenas la tercera parte del Viaje a Oriente, una última etapa que, de diciembre de 1850 a junio de 1851, les llevará desde Grecia hasta Italia. La ciudad de Venecia pondrá fin a esta gran aventura de casi dos años de duración, en la que partiendo de París recorrieron Egipto, Líbano, Palestina, Siria y Asia Menor. El Peloponeso, Nápoles, Roma o Florencia forman parte del itinerario de Flaubert en esta etapa final de su viaje por Oriente. Ilustrado con numerosas fotografías de la época. El Autor Gustave Flaubert (Rouen, 1821 - Croisset, 1880). Su obra está considerada como una de las más importantes del s. XIX y como precursora de las experien- cias formales del s. XX. En 1842 inició en París sus estudios de derecho, que tuvo que abandonar al declararse los primeros síntomas de los graves trastornos nervio- sos que le aquejaron durante toda su vida. En 1846 se retiró definitivamente a una finca en Croisset, donde se dedicó de forma exclusiva a la literatura, de la que sólo le distrajeron sus relaciones amorosas con Louise Colet y el largo viaje por Orien- te; a su regreso publicó Madame Bovary (1857). Tras un nuevo viaje por el norte de África (1858), escribió Salambó (1862). En 1869 publicó La educación sentimental y, en 1874, La tentación de san Antonio. De 1877 son sus Tres cuentos (La leyenda de san Julián el Hospitalario, Herodías y Un corazón sencillo). Flaubert murió de una hemorragia cerebral en Croisset, pero fue enterrado en el panteón familiar del cementerio de Rouen. Un año después de su muerte apareció la inacabada Bouvard y Pécuchet (1881). El Fotógrafo Maxime Du Camp (París, 1822 - Baden Baden, 1894). Escritor y fotógrafo francés, miembro de la Académie française. Este gran viajero fue uno de los fundado- res en 1851 de la Revue de Paris, publicación que editó Madame Bovary, y colaborador habitual de la Revue des Deux Mondes. Entre sus trabajos literarios destacan Paris, ses organes, ses fonctions, sa vie y Les Convulsions de Paris. Sirvió de voluntario en 1860 con Garibaldi, participando en la Expedición de los Mil. Murió en 1894, y está enterrado en el cementerio de Montmartre. La Traductora Lola Bermúdez Medina es Catedrática de Filología Francesa en la Univer- sidad de Cádiz y se interesa por la literatura francesa de finales del s. XIX y por las relaciones entre la literatura y la pintura, sobre las que ha publicado una serie de trabajos en revistas nacionales e internacionales.

Long Live the Revolutions: Fighting for France's Political Future in the Long Wake of the Commune, 1871-1880 Abstract The traumatic legacies of the Paris Commune and its harsh suppression in 1871 had a significant impact on the identities and voter outreach efforts of each of the chief political blocs of the 1870s. The political and cultural developments of this phenomenal decade, which is frequently mislabeled as calm and stable, established the Republic's longevity and set its character. Yet the Commune's legacies have never been comprehensively examined in a way that synthesizes their political and cultural effects. This dissertation offers a compelling perspective of the 1870s through qualitative and quantitative analyses of the influence of these legacies, using sources as diverse as parliamentary debates, visual media, and scribbled sedition on city walls, to explicate the decade's most important political and cultural moments, their origins, and their impact.

H-France Review Volume 19 (2019) Page 1 H-France Review Vol. 19 (February 2019), No. 22 Colette E. Wilson, Paris and the Commune, 1871-78: The Politics of Forgetting. Manchester: Manchester University Press, 2016. xiii + 236 pp. Figures, notes, illustrations, bibliography, and index. £19.99 U.K. (pb). ISBN 9781526106582. Review by Casey Harison, University of Southern Indiana. The Commune of 1871 was the predominantly working-class rebellion that seized control of Paris two months after France had lost a war against Prussia. The Communards controlled Paris from mid-March to late May before the French national army operating from nearby Versailles entered and retook the city in a week of terrible street fighting. According to John Merriman, La Semaine Sanglante (Bloody Week, 21-28 May 1871), was a “massacre” perpetrated by the national government that left as many as 12,000- 15,000 Communards killed.[1] Historians like Merriman have written a great deal about the Commune. As with other national traumas, there have also been contests over the memory and legacies of 1871. Colette E. Wilson’s persuasive Paris and the Commune 1871-78 (first published as a hardback edition in 2007) is about the effort by conservative elements in Paris and France to either forget aspects of the Commune’s history or to remember only what they regarded as its crimes. Paris and the Commune 1871-78 is a concise work of six chapters, including introduction and brief conclusion. The book is part of a series produced by Manchester University’s Centre for the Cultural History of War and belongs to the scholarly genre of cultural memory studies.

Dictée Du Lundi 17 Octobre 2016. Lettres De G Flaubert À George Sand
Dictée du lundi 17 octobre 2016 Lettres de Gustave Flaubert à Georges Sand. À George Sand. Croisset, nuit de samedi [12-13 janvier 1867]. Non , chère maître , vous n’êtes pas près de votre fin. Tant pis pour vous, peut-être. Mais vous vivrez vieille et très vieille, comme vivent les géants, puisque vous êtes de cette race-là ; seulement, il faut se reposer. Une chose m’étonne, c’est que vous ne soyez pas morte vingt fois, ayant tant pensé, tant écrit, et tant souffert. Allez donc un peu, comme vous en aviez tant envie, au bord de la Méditerranée. L’azur détend et retrempe. Il y a des pays de jouvence, comme la baie de Naples. En de certains moments, ils rendent peut-être plus triste ? Je n’en sais rien. La vie n’est pas facile ! Quelle affaire compliquée et dispendieuse ! J’en sais quelque chose. Il faut de l’argent pour tout ! Si bien qu’avec un revenu modeste et un métier improductif, il faut se résigner à peu. Ainsi fais-je ! Le pli en est pris ; mais les jours où le travail ne marche pas, ce n’est pas drôle. Ah ! Oui, je veux bien vous suivre dans une autre planète. Et à propos d’argent, c’est là ce qui rendra la nôtre inhabitable dans un avenir rapproché, car il sera impossible d’y vivre, même aux plus riches, sans s’occuper de son bien ; il faudra que tout le monde passe plusieurs heures par jour à tripoter ses capitaux. Charmant ! Moi, je continue à tripoter mon roman, et je m’en irai à Paris quand je serai à la fin de mon chapitre, vers le milieu du mois prochain.

Printed in the United States of America. oi.uchicago.edu IMAGES OF A LOST EGYPT ON JANUARY 7, 1839, Francois Arago, a member of the French Chamber of Deputies, rose before a distinguished audience at the Acaddmie des Sciences in Paris to announce officially the invention of photography by Louis Daguerre. Almost in the same breath, Arago voiced the implications the new technique would have for the documentation of Egyp- tianmonuments, asserting that a single individual, armed with a camera, would be able to record the myriads of hero- glyphs covering the ancient walls of the temples at Thebes and Memphis, far outstripping the abilities of illustrators to record the same by hand. That one of the first applications envisioned for such a revolutionary discovery should be the documentation of ancient ruins in Egypt is not as strange as it may sound to modem ears. In 1839 fascination in things pharaonic was at its peak in Europe.

Maxime Du Camp's Ph
The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Arts and Architecture BEYOND THE FAÇADE: MAXIME DU CAMP’S PHOTOGRAPHS OF EGYPT A Thesis in Art History by Whitney A. Izzo © 2009 Whitney A. Izzo Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts May 2009 ii The thesis of Whitney A. Izzo was reviewed and approved* by the following: Nancy Locke Associate Professor of Art History Thesis Adviser Brian Curran Associate Professor of Art History Craig Zabel Associate Professor of Art History Head of the Department of Art History *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. iii Abstract The photographs of Egypt from Maxime Du Camp’s photographic book Egypt, Nubie, Palestine et Syrie (1852) are at once a reminder of the West’s storied, and often sordid, history of colonialism and treatment of the “Other,” and also of France’s very specific imperial relationship with Egypt. From written works and popular media to visual imagery, Du Camp’s images are part of an established Orientalist vocabulary. More importantly, however, Du Camp’s photographs continue to reference France’s language of dominance laid out by Napoleon in his 1798 invasion and scientific expedition into Egypt. Rather than focusing specifically on the physical conquests of colonization—as is commonly the case when examining Western Orientalism—I will discuss Du Camp’s work with an emphasis on its relation to cultural hegemony. Just as relevant as physically occupying and dominating the “Other,” cultural colonization connects Western superiority with controlling and establishing structures of knowledge. In comparing Du Camp’s images with Francis Frith’s photographs of Egypt and Napoleon’s Description de l’Egypte, I will demonstrate the relation of Du Camp’s photographs to France’s attempt to present itself as an imperial power.

Out in the Street - How It Began
Introduction On these walls you’ll ﬁnd photographs from down the street and across the world and they all have a certain thing in common. Community. Whether they assert themselves in their point of view directly or subtly, the act of making a photograph on the street, dusty or otherwise, is an act of community, a subversive act of reﬂection on who we are, what we are doing, where we are going, and why. It’s been happening since the day the camera was invented. It has changed art forever. It has brought us together, changed politics, industry, life as we know it, and in some cases has helped stopped war. It’s with us every moment of every day this community, this big giant street we all live on. I’ll start there.
