Ignacio Rodeño Les écrivaines contemporaines et les mythes. Le remembrement au féminin. Paris: Karthala, 2013. is volume in French, by Dr. Metka Zupančič, is a collection of fourteen essays dealing with the notion of “rememberment” of myths in contemporary French and Francophone literature by women writers. Ten authors are studied and placed in the context of contemporary trends, be it in Canada (Québec and Ontario), France, Belgium or Tunisia. e rewritings of some key femi- nine myths, mainly from the Mediterranean tradition, such as those of Demeter, Persephone, Ariadne, Mary Magdalene, and quite strongly a new Eurydice, contribute to self-awareness and empowerment through the new paradigms that are to be found in novels studied by Dr. Zupančič. A special event around this book, organized by the Slovene Embassy in Paris and moderated by Dr. Zupančič, was held on June 4, 2013, at the French Writers’ Society (SDGL) in Paris, with the participation of scholars and writers from Belgium, the USA, and Canada.

From within the fields of theater and performance studies, “The Ambivalence of Resistance: West German Antiauthoritarian Performance after the Age of Affluence” approaches this question historically. It surveys the types of performance that decolonization and New Left movements in 1960s West Germany used to engage reconfigurations in the global labor process and the emergence of anti-imperialist struggles internationally, from documentary drama and happenings to direct action tactics like street blockades and building occupations.

Kettle’s Yard, Castle Street, Cambridge, CB3 0AQ, www.kettlesyard.co.uk Modern Times: responding to chaos drawings and films selected by Lutz Becker Kettle’s Yard is launching a new series of exhibitions called Modern Times. People creatively involved in the 20th and 21st centuries are asked to trace their own paths through the art of our times. For the first exhibition, Modern Times: responding to chaos, film-maker, painter and curator, Lutz Becker focuses on drawing and film, the oldest and most fundamental medium and one of the most modern. The subtitle of this first exhibition, ‘responding to chaos’, reflects the predicament of artists in a period marked by totalitarian regimes, world wars, nuclear and climatic threats, and accelerating technological and social change. It has also been a time when established values have been open to criticism and doubt and international cultural influences have enhanced the awareness of their relativity.
