  • Le Prix De La Littérature Arabe 2019
    Communiqué de presse Paris, le 7 novembre 2019 Le Prix de la littérature arabe 2019 (doté de 10 000 €), créé par l’Institut du monde arabe et la Fondation Jean-Luc Lagardère, est décerné à l’écrivain égyptien Mohammed Abdelnabi pour son roman La Chambre de l’araignée (Actes Sud / Sindbad) traduit de l’arabe (Égypte) par Gilles Gauthier Le jury, présidé par Pierre Leroy, cogérant de Lagardère SCA, et composé de personnalités du monde des médias, des arts et de la culture ainsi que de spécialistes du monde arabe, a élu, à l’unanimité, le texte de Mohammed Abdelnabi, saluant « un écrivain audacieux au style affirmé et percutant qui fait plonger le lecteur au cœur des tabous de la société égyptienne et arabe. Un roman qui se veut une ode à la tolérance et à l’humanisme. » A l’occasion de la cérémonie de remise du prix, le 6 novembre 2019 à l’IMA, Jack Lang, Président de l’Institut, a rappelé le caractère unique du Prix et son rôle essentiel en tant que « caisse de résonnance pour les écrivains qui témoignent de l’extraordinaire vitalité de la littérature contemporaine arabe ». Pour Pierre Leroy, Président du Jury du Prix : « Transformant un événement précis en un vibrant plaidoyer pour la tolérance, Mohammed Abdelnabi accomplit ce qui peut être l’une des raisons de la littérature : porter un message politique dans l’espoir de faire évoluer la société ». Les membres du jury ont souligné la remarquable qualité des livres également retenus dans la dernière sélection de cette édition 2019 : Les petits de Décembre, de Kaouther Adimi (Éditions du Seuil) ; Ougarit, de Camille Ammoun (éditions incultes) ; Le Ciel sous nos pas, de Leïla Bahsaïn (Albin Michel) ; Égypte 51, de Yasmine Khlat (Elyzad) ; Port-au-Prince Aller-Retour, de Georgia Makhlouf (La Cheminante) ; Ceux qui ont peur (traduit de l’arabe par François Zabbal), de Dima Wannous (Gallimard).

  • World Anthology for the Protocol for World Peace
    WORLD BIBLIOGRAPHIC INDEX: ALPHABETICAL (I) AND IN ORDER OF ACCESS (II) The collection of texts, from which the materials for the data base of The Protocol for World Peace were abstracted, was begun on January 1, 2000, and the finishing work on the final portion of this effort—the Four Governing Indices (World Table of Contents, World Authors A- Z, World Bibliography, World Archives)—was completed on Christmas Day, 2017. * In this bibliography, every effort has been made to discover for each source its card catalogue identification in the constituent libraries of Cornell University, which appears in each entry as a single-word English short-form of their names—OLIN, ASIA, URIS, AFRICANA, COX, ILR (International Labor Relations) etc.—printed prior to each catalogue number. Very occasionally the source is designated in the RARE collection, referring to the library housed in the Rare Book depository; even more occasionally the source is designated as an “Electronic Resource” (If the source edition actually used is not listed, the nearest English-language edition is listted; if there is no English edition, the closest non-English; if the work is entirely absent, but there is present something else by the author that has been collected, the citation “other stuff” will be seen.) In many cases, these catalogue entries are twinned, and the Cornell reference invariably follows the catalogue entry of the library where the source was originally discovered, thus: [ original citation | Cornell citation ]. * The collection was begun through the auspices of the Interlibrary Loan Department of the Southeast Steuben County Public Library in Corning, New York, and for the first year or so liberal use was made of the various public libraries affiliated in this public library system.
