  • Audrey Hepburn at the National Press Club, April 7, 1989
    Audrey Hepburn at the National Press Club, April 7, 1989 Audrey Hepburn, April 7, 1989. Photo by Stan Jennings. National Press Club Archives Audrey Hepburn (1929-1993), Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations Children’s Fund, or UNICEF, spoke at a National Press Club luncheon a few days before journeying to Sudan, where she publicized the organization’s attempt to distribute food, medicine, and supplies to more than two million people in the southern portion of that war-torn country before the rainy season made conditions impossible for relief efforts to operate. UNICEF’s director, James P. Grant, had negotiated an unprecedented agreement with government and guerrilla forces to allow aid workers safe corridors through which to transport materials. Hepburn’s role was to act as a witness to the effort, named Operation Lifeline Sudan, and thereby attract the press’s attention to the plight of children in danger, a cause to which she dedicated herself during the last five years of her life. In her talk to the Press Club, she urged reporters to focus on the Sudan. A day earlier, she appealed to a House appropriations subcommittee to take action to help relieve the mounting third world debt problem, arguing that children, the principle victims, “are too fragile to wait until the economic crisis is past.” The voyage to the Sudan was Hepburn’s sixth since she joined UNICEF in 1988, a decision motivated in part by the deprivations she herself had suffered as a child in occupied Holland during World War II. Her uncle was executed by Nazi troops.

  • La Force Féminine Dans Lettres D'une Péruvienne Et Gigi
    L’É RUDIT FRANCO -ESPAGNOL , VOLUME 4, DECEMBER 2013 La force féminine dans Lettres d’une Péruvienne et Gigi Erin Lamm Boston University En 1747, Françoise de Graffigny 1 publiait une première édition de son roman épistolaire, Lettres d’une Péruvienne (l’édition définitive date de 1752), et, en 1942, Colette faisait paraître une version de ce qui deviendra sa nouvelle Gigi , sous le titre L’attardée dans la revue Présent .2 Les deux héroïnes, Zilia et Gilberte, au seuil de leur vie d’adulte, sont en cours d’achever une formation qui est censée mener à leur entrée dans le monde ou dans le demi-monde en France. 3 Ces deux milieux représentent deux sociétés aux mœurs divergentes, bien que, sous certains aspects, les comportements de la noblesse française puissent être comparables à ceux du demi-monde à la Belle Époque. L’étude suivante entend examiner les similitudes et les différences entre les conceptions de la construction sociale de la femme, tant au niveau corporel que spirituel, chez Madame de Graffigny et chez Colette. Pour accomplir leur analyse, chaque auteur(e) 4 explore la condition féminine au travers d’une description détaillée et nuancée de la formation des jeunes filles à leurs époques respectives. En raison des convenances sociales en vigueur, Madame de Graffigny favorise un sentimentalisme représentatif d’une femme cultivée du dix-huitième siècle. En revanche, Colette exploite le genre de la nouvelle/du roman court, souvent drôle, où les sentiments se mélangent avec l’humour. Au contraire de Madame de Graffigny, Colette n’essaie pas forcément de convaincre ses lecteurs de la vérité de Gigi .5 Elle écrit, tout simplement, une fiction drôle, pour amuser et instruire ses lecteurs : le public bourgeois.

The rumbling of the carriage wheels had lulled her baby sister and young brother to sleep but Gigi, at eight years old, was too excited to close her eyes for one second. She didn’t want to miss anything. She and her family had run away from home! Gigi had seen the anxious looks on her mother’s face and heard the tension in her father’s voice as they’d been packing their belongings into the trunks and boxes. It seemed that many people in France were getting very angry and dangerous - Father called it a Revolution - and they had to run away to the country to be safe. 1 Gigi didn’t feel any danger. How could she be afraid on this beautiful July day, as she gazed up into a deep blue sky and listened to the birds singing in the trees. The carriage was rumbling along at quite a pace.The driver must’ve been anxious too! But it wasn’t too fast for Gigi to notice the small bunches of grapes growing on the vines which covered the countryside through which they were hurrying. “Will we be allowed to pick them at harvest time?” she wondered to herself.
