  • Spring Break in Paris

    Spring Break in Paris

    Spring Break in Paris Friday, March 21st to Sunday, March 30th, 2014 What you’ll do . Friday, March 21st – You’ll depart from Huntsville or Nashville International Airport bound for Europe. Usually there is a stop in one of the major cities of the east coast in order to catch your trans-Atlantic flight to Paris. Saturday, March 22nd – After flying through the night, you’ll land at Charles de Gaulle International Airport. After collecting your luggage and passing through customs, you’ll transfer into the city, usually by train. On evening one, there’s a short time for resting and refreshing at the hotel before heading out into the city for dinner and some sightseeing. You will ascend the 58-story Tour Montparnasse for the best views of Paris as the sun goes down and the lights come on in the city. Sunday, March 23rd– You’ll visit the Royal Palace of Versailles, just outside of Paris. In addition to touring the palace itself, you’ll want to visit the gardens, since Sunday is the only day the world-famous fountains are turned on. You will also have the opportunity to visit the Grand and Petit Trianon, small palaces built by the king on the grounds of Versailles in order to escape the pressures of palace life. Also not to be missed is the village-like hameau of Marie Antoinette. Later, you’ll head back to Paris for dinner and a visit to the Sacré-Coeur Basilica in Montmartre, the bohemian quarter of Paris. In Montmartre, you’ll also visit the Place du Tertre, where an artist will paint your portrait for a price.

    Cartes Postales Parisiennes (Vers 1900 – Vers 1950)

    ARCHIVES DE PARIS Cartes postales parisiennes (vers 1900 – vers 1950) 8 Fi Sommaires et index des 14 albums Ont participé au traitement des cartes postales et à la confection des albums : Marie-Claude BERGER , Colette BONNE , France-Odile DES MAZERY , Jean-Philippe DUMAS , Louis-Gilles PAIRAULT et Jean-Jacques WEBER . Mai 2002 PRÉSENTATION Contenu – La présente collection, qui rassemble environ 6 000 cartes postales, résulte de dons faits aux Archives de Paris par des particuliers, des bibliothèques et d’autres services d’archives. Dans leur grande majorité, ces cartes postales ont été éditées durant la première motié du XX e siècle, et notamment durant les années 1900-1920 ; certaines, cependant, sont plus récentes, et se complètent de rééditions modernes de vues prises au début du siècle. Pour leur présentation, les cartes postales ont été distribuées selon un cadre de classement qui prend en compte leur sujet, leur titre, le plus souvent un nom de lieu ou de monument. Moins qu’à une division intellectuelle, toutefois, la répartition en 14 albums découle simplement de la nécessité de confectionner des volumes d’importance égale. On notera cependant que le 10 e album est entièrement consacré à des communes de la banlieue parisienne, classées par ordre alphabétique. Reproductions – Les cartes postales sont reproduites dans les albums sous forme de photocopies. Les lecteurs qui souhaiteraient consulter les « originaux » sont invités à présenter une demande motivée auprès du chef de service des relations avec les publics. Des tirages peuvent évidemment être commandés au moyen des formulaires de demande de reproduction, disponibles à la présidence de la salle de lecture, et sur lesquels sont à reporter les indications suivantes : numéro de l’album, numéro de la page, place de la carte sur la page et sujet de la vue (exemple : 5 e album, page 12, carte en bas à gauche : vue du pont de la Concorde).

  • Enlightenment Walking Tour 4

    Enlightenment Walking Tour 4

    France and Paris were changed dramatically by the Enlightenment and ensuing French Revolution. Likewise, many of the monuments and buildings you’ll see on this walk were “reinvented” during the 18th century. The Panthéon, where this walk starts, began as a church sponsored by an absolute monarch and ended the century as a monument to the country’s most famous Enlightenment figures. The place de la Concorde, where the walk ends, saw one monarch celebrated with a statue and another executed on the same site. Saint-Sulpice and Saint- Thomas-d’Aquin were transformed from churches to secular “temples” and back to churches again. And the Palais du Luxembourg, Hôtel de Salm, and Palais Bourbon, homes at the beginning of the century to royalty and aristocrats, ended the century as homes to the country’s newly created democratic institutions. In addition to showcasing neoclassical buildings and monuments, the walk also provides an opportunity to wander through part of the Saint-Germain des Prés quarter, one of the city’s most lively and interesting neighborhoods.

    Victor Hugo's Paris J-Term Course in Paris, France, 2019

    Victor Hugo’s Paris J-Term course in Paris, France, 2019 (ISHU 3720) BIS Program, School of Continuing and Professional Studies December 28, 2018-January 10, 2019 Syllabus DRAFT NB: Details may change because of specialists’ availability, site openings, weather or text availability. Program Director & Instructor: Marva Barnett Professor Emeritus (formerly professor at the UVA Center for Teaching Excellence and in the Drama and French Departments) Important Contact Info Marva Barnett’s cell in France: US cell: TBA Assistant’s US cell in France: TBA “To study in Paris is to be born in Paris!” « Étudier à Paris, c’est être né à Paris! » ― Victor Hugo, Les Misérables I, 3, ii “Whoever contemplates the depths of Paris is seized with vertigo. Nothing is more fantastic, nothing is more tragic, nothing is more superb.” « Qui regarde au fond de Paris a le vertige. Rien de plus fantasque, rien de plus tragique, rien de plus superbe. » ― Victor Hugo, Introduction to Paris-Guide, Part III, 1867 “To stray is human; to saunter is Parisian.” « Errer est humain, flâner est parisien. » ― Victor Hugo, Les Misérables III, 4, i Note: To get Hugo’s joke, you need to understand the French pun. “Errer” means both “to err” and “to stray, or get lost” and “errer est humain“ is as familiar as our “to err is human.” Course Description: One might argue, as slate.fr has, that Victor Hugo is Paris. A great Romantic poet and world-renowned novelist and social-justice fighter, Victor Hugo dominated nineteenth-century Paris. Students taking this BIS-affiliated J-Term course, “Victor Hugo’s Paris” will explore the City of Lights from literary, historical, artistic, biographical and cultural perspectives.
