| elisabeth platel married: A History of the French in London Debra Kelly, Martyn Cornick, 2013 This book examines, for the first time, the history of the social, cultural, political and economic presence of the French in London, and explores the multiple ways in which this presence has contributed to the life of the city. The capital has often provided a place of refuge, from the Huguenots in the 17th century, through the period of the French Revolution, to various exile communities during the 19th century, and on to the Free French in the Second World War.It also considers the generation of French citizens who settled in post-war London, and goes on to provide insights into the contemporary French presence by assessing the motives and lives of French people seeking new opportunities in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. It analyses the impact that the French have had historically, and continue to have, on London life in the arts, gastronomy, business, industry and education, manifest in diverse places and institutions from the religious to the political via the educational, to the commercial and creative industries. |

| elisabeth platel married: Things No One Else Can Teach Us Humble the Poet, 2019-10-15 From the international bestselling author of Unlearn, Humble the Poet speaks new truths about how we can create silver linings from our most difficult moments. Every one of us endures setbacks, disappointments, and failures that can beat us down. But we don’t have to let them. Instead, we can use them as opportunities for growth. In Things No One Else Can Teach Us, Humble the Poet goes against conventional wisdom for happiness and success, showing us how our most painful experiences can be our greatest teachers. Humble shares raw, honest stories from his own life—from his rocky start becoming a rapper to nearly going broke to battling racism—to demonstrate how we can change our minds to better our lives. From a breakup to losing a loved one, our hardest moments can help us flourish, but only if we seize the opportunity. While we can’t control life, we have the power to control how we react to it. Things No One Else Can Teach Us reminds us that we have the power to transform the way we respond to everyday challenges and ultimately be our best selves. |

| elisabeth platel married: The Global Soul Pico Iyer, 2011-08-31 Pico Iyer has for many years described with keen perception and exacting wit the shifting textures of faraway lands anchored on a spinning globe that mixes and matches East and West. Now he casts a philosophical eye upon this curious state of floatingness. In the transnational village that our world has become, travel and technology fuel each other and us. As Iyer points out, everywhere is so made up of everywhere else, and our very souls have been put into circulation. Yet even global beings need a home. Using his own multicultural upbringing (Indian, American, British) as a point of departure, Iyer sets out on a quest, both physical and psychological, to find what remains constant in a world gone mobile. He begins in Los Angeles International Airport, where town life — shops, services, sociability — is available without a town, and in Hong Kong, where people actually live in self-contained hotels. He moves on to Toronto, which has been given new life and a new literature by its immigrant population, and to Atlanta, where the Olympic Village inadvertently commemorates the corporate universalism that is the Olympics' secret face. And, finally, he returns to England, where the effects of empire-as-global-village are still being sorted out, and to Japan, where in the midst of alien surfaces, Iyer unexpectedly finds a home. As a guide to far-flung places, Pico Iyer can hardly be surpassed, The New Yorker has written. In The Global Soul, he extends the meaning of far-flung to places within and all around us. |
| elisabeth platel married: Entrer dans la danse Joël Laillier, 2017 La 4e de couv. indique : La représentation du monde de la danse classique oscille entre fascination et condamnation. Fascination pour les danseurs et danseuses qui se consacrent corps et âme à la recherche de l'excellence artistique. Condamnation de la souffrance et des sacrifices d'une vie d'ascète dans un univers compétitif à l'extrême. Le cinéma, la littérature et les médias véhiculent sans cesse une telle tension, comme en témoigne le film à succès Black Swan. Le Ballet de l'Opéra de Paris est au coeur de cette représentation fantasmatique, au point d'en être le modèle. Dévoilement des coulisses de cette institution prestigieuse, cet ouvrage montre comment les désirs des jeunes aspirants sont façonnés, entretenus ou remis en cause au fil d'une vie tout entière consacrée à la danse malgré des chances de réussite très incertaines. L'enquête menée auprès des élèves et de leurs parents, des professeurs et des anciens danseurs permet de saisir sur le vif les mécanismes sociaux qui amènent les danseurs à donner du sens à leur engagement. En suivant les danseurs et les danseuses dès l'entrée dans la pratique, durant la scolarité et jusqu'à leur départ à la retraite, Joël Laillier donne à voir la fabrique d'une élite artistique. |

| elisabeth platel married: The Hypochondriac Molière,, Roger McGough, 2009-07-16 First produced in 1673 and Molière's final play, The Hypochondriac is a scathingly funny lampoon on both hypochondria and the 'quack' medical profession. Argan is a perfectly healthy, wealthy gentleman, convinced that he is seriously ill. So obsessed is he with medicinal tinkerings and tonics that he is blind to the goings on in his own household. However, his most efficacious cure will not appear in a bottle or a bedpan, but in his sharp-tongued servant, who has a cunning plan to reveal the truth and open her master's eyes. Adapted by Roger McGough The Hypochondriac was produced by the Liverpool Everyman and Playhouse and English Touring Theatre and premiered on 19 June 2009. |

| elisabeth platel married: The Lost Constellations John C. Barentine, 2015-10-23 Casual stargazers are familiar with many classical figures and asterisms composed of bright stars (e.g., Orion and the Plough), but this book reveals not just the constellations of today but those of yesteryear. The history of the human identification of constellations among the stars is explored through the stories of some influential celestial cartographers whose works determined whether new inventions survived. The history of how the modern set of 88 constellations was defined by the professional astronomy community is recounted, explaining how the constellations described in the book became permanently “extinct.” Dr. Barentine addresses why some figures were tried and discarded, and also directs observers to how those figures can still be picked out on a clear night if one knows where to look. These lost constellations are described in great detail using historical references, enabling observers to rediscover them on their own surveys of the sky. Treatment of the obsolete constellations as extant features of the night sky adds a new dimension to stargazing that merges history with the accessibility and immediacy of the night sky. |
