| le rouge et le noir online: Le Rouge et le Noir de Henri Beyle, dit Stendhal Encyclopaedia Universalis,, 2015-11-10 Bienvenue dans la collection Les Fiches de lecture d’Universalis Julien Gracq a magnifiquement évoqué la « tranquille insurrection intellectuelle et affective » qui s’empare de quiconque ouvre Le Rouge et le Noir. Grand classique du roman du XIXe siècle, le livre dépasse largement le cadre du réalisme qui semble le caractériser alors même que Stendhal (1783-1842), proche des désinvoltes et des burlesques (Fielding, Sterne ou Diderot), s’adressait directement à son lecteur quand il prétendait écrire une « Chronique de 1830 », et traitait les grandes questions du temps – l’argent, la promotion sociale – « sur le pur mode des contes de fées » (J. Gracq). Une fiche de lecture spécialement conçue pour le numérique, pour tout savoir sur Le Rouge et le Noir de Henri Beyle, dit Stendhal Chaque fiche de lecture présente une œuvre clé de la littérature ou de la pensée.

| le rouge et le noir online: The Edge of the Precipice Paul Socken, 2013-09-01 Can a case be made for reading literature in the digital age? Does literature still matter in this era of instant information? Is it even possible to advocate for serious, sustained reading with all manner of social media distracting us, fragmenting our concentration, and demanding short, rapid communication? In The Edge of the Precipice, Paul Socken brings together a thoughtful group of writers, editors, philosophers, librarians, archivists, and literary critics from Canada, the US, France, England, South Africa, and Australia to contemplate the state of literature in the twenty-first century. Including essays by outstanding contributors such as Alberto Manguel, Mark Kingwell, Lori Saint-Martin, Sven Birkerts, Katia Grubisic, Drew Nelles, and J. Hillis Miller, this collection presents a range of perspectives about the importance of reading literature today. The Edge of the Precipice is a passionate, articulate, and entertaining collection that reflects on the role of literature in our society and asks if it is now under siege. Contributors include Michael Austin (Newman University), Sven Birkerts (author), Stephen Brockmann (Carnegie-Mellon University), Vincent Giroud (University of Franche-Comté), Katia Grubisic (poet), Mark Kingwell (University of Toronto), Alberto Manguel (author), J.

| le rouge et le noir online: Reading Realism in Stendhal Ann Jefferson, Fellow and Tutor in French Ann Jefferson, 1988-03-10 This book poses the question: what happens when reading enters the realist process? and answers it by way of a critical study of Stendhal's writing. Ann Jefferson argues that a recognition of the role of reading in representation is particularly crucial to an understanding of Stendhal's realism, and her account includes substantial discussions of De l'Amour, Le Rouge et le Noir, the Vie de Henry Brulard and La Chartreuse de Parme. Her study also draws a number of illuminating parallels between Stendhal and aspects of modern critical theory, and uses them in order to reveal the high degree of sophistication and self-consciousness in Stendhal's writing, qualities which are attributed here to the intensity of his preoccupation with his readers. By focusing on the issue of reading in Stendhal this book not only proposes a reassessment of Stendhal's own work, but also opens up lines of enquiry on the critical problem that is realism. |

| le rouge et le noir online: I'm Down Mishna Wolff, 2009-05-26 Mishna Wolff grew up in a poor black neighborhood with her single father, a white man who truly believed he was black. “He strutted around with a short perm, a Cosby-esqe sweater, gold chains and a Kangol—telling jokes like Redd Fox, and giving advice like Jesse Jackson. You couldn’t tell my father he was white. Believe me, I tried,” writes Wolff. And so from early childhood on, her father began his crusade to make his white daughter Down. Unfortunately, Mishna didn’t quite fit in with the neighborhood kids: she couldn’t dance, she couldn’t sing, she couldn’t double dutch and she was the worst player on her all-black basketball team. She was shy, uncool and painfully white. And yet when she was suddenly sent to a rich white school, she found she was too “black” to fit in with her white classmates. I’m Down is a hip, hysterical and at the same time beautiful memoir that will have you howling with laughter, recommending it to friends and questioning what it means to be black and white in America. |

| le rouge et le noir online: À la droite du père Collectif, 2022-10-21T00:00:00+02:00 « En l’absence d’un parti confessionnel, c’est la droite qui en a tenu lieu et il n’est pas douteux que pour des générations, catholicisme et droite ont été associés en bien comme en mal », observait René Rémond. Cette dimension structurante de la vie politique française est pourtant restée un angle négligé de l’histoire contemporaine. Du Magnificat à Notre-Dame lors de la Libération de Paris en août 1944 aux élections présidentielles de 2022, ce livre montre comment, sortant de la guerre des « deux France », les catholiques ont contribué à façonner la IVe et la V République. En 1944, les démocrates-chrétiens deviennent un parti de gouvernement. Après 1958, le gaullisme consonne avec Vatican II et un nouveau concordat semble même possible avant que l’évolution de la société ne déchire les catholiques de droite. La guerre d’Algérie et Mai 68 réarment une marge réactionnaire alors même que l’Église paraît trahir l’ordre ancien. « Dieu n’est pas conservateur », clame Mgr Marty à Notre-Dame. La droite non plus, promet Valéry Giscard d’Estaing dont la majorité composée de catholiques dépénalise l’avortement. L’élection de Jean-Paul II conforte ceux qui réprouvent ce tournant. L’ampleur des manifestations pour l’école libre en 1984 ou contre le mariage homosexuel et la PMA depuis 2013, réaffirme leur place au sein des droites. Au XXIe siècle, la visibilité croissante de l’islam exacerbe cet activisme conservateur. Avec les meilleurs spécialistes, ce livre propose pour la première fois d’éclairer de manière croisée l’histoire des droites et celle du catholicisme. S’étendant du centre aux extrêmes, l’exploration de cet univers à la forte densité intellectuelle et d’une grande créativité militante, apporte un éclairage neuf sur la vie politique française. Réunis autour de Florian Michel, historien, et de Yann Raison du Cleuziou, politiste, vingt-neuf chercheurs reconnus ont contribué à cet ouvrage. |

| le rouge et le noir online: The Black Jacobins C.L.R. James, 2023-08-22 A powerful and impassioned historical account of the largest successful revolt by enslaved people in history: the Haitian Revolution of 1791–1803 “One of the seminal texts about the history of slavery and abolition.... Provocative and empowering.” —The New York Times Book Review The Black Jacobins, by Trinidadian historian C. L. R. James, was the first major analysis of the uprising that began in the wake of the storming of the Bastille in France and became the model for liberation movements from Africa to Cuba. It is the story of the French colony of San Domingo, a place where the brutality of plantation owners toward enslaved people was horrifyingly severe. And it is the story of a charismatic and barely literate enslaved person named Toussaint L’Ouverture, who successfully led the Black people of San Domingo against successive invasions by overwhelming French, Spanish, and English forces—and in the process helped form the first independent post-colonial nation in the Caribbean. With a new introduction (2023) by Professor David Scott. |
| le rouge et le noir online: Love in Motion Reidar Due, 2013-11-12 This is a book about how film encountered love in the course of its history. It is also a book about the philosophy of love. Since Plato, erotic love has been praised for leading the soul to knowledge. The vast tradition of poetry devoted to love has emphasized that love is a feeling. Love in Motion presents a new metaphysics and ontology of love as a reciprocal erotic relationship. The book argues that film has been particularly well suited for depicting love in this way, in virtue of its special narrative language. This is a language of expression that has developed in the course of film history. The book spans this history from early silent directors such as Joseph von Sternberg to contemporary filmmakers like Sophia Coppola. At the centre of this study is a comparison between Classical French and American love films of the forties and a series of modernist films by Luis Buñuel, François Truffaut and Wong Kar Wai. |
| le rouge et le noir online: The Count of Monte Cristo - Vol II. (in Five Volumes) Alexandre Dumas, 2015-06-11 This vintage book contains the second volume of Alexandre Dumas's famous adventure novel, The Count of Monte Cristo. Set in early nineteenth century France during the time of the Bourbon Restoration, it tells the story of a man's wrongful imprisonment, his escape, and his indefatigable quest for revenge. A masterful tale of hope, justice, vengeance, mercy, and forgiveness, The Count of Monte Cristo is rightfully one the most famous novels of all time, and deserves a place on every bookshelf. Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870) was a famous French writer. He is best remembered for his exciting romantic sagas, including The Three Musketeers and Chicot the Jester. Despite making a great deal of money from his writing, Dumas was almost perpetually penniless thanks to his extravagant lifestyle. His novels have been translated into nearly a hundred different languages, and have inspired over 200 motion pictures. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing this antiquarian book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author. |

Using both her personal experiences and the lessons of French history and culture, she examines every aspect of French life - from sex and adultery to money, happiness, race and politics - in this funny and engrossing account of our most intriguing neighbour. |

| le rouge et le noir online: The Gnostic Book of Meditation (AGEAC) V M Kwen Khan Khu, Samael Aun Weor, 2021-04-06 Meditation, historically well known in the East, has now become fashionable in the West and even doctors and psychiatrists advise it for healing and improving the states of their patients. Unfortunately, a snobbish current has appeared, and much verbiage has been poured out on this subject. This leads the devotee along paths that prevent him from doing it correctly, since meditation is something profoundly transcendental.In the present treatise, all the texts left on this subject by the Avatar of Aquarius ─V.M. Samael Aun Weor─ are gathered, clarifying all the doubts, explaining the correct technique and guiding anyone who truly wants to enjoy meditation and harvest its fruits on a physical and metaphysical level. As it is well known that no effort of intimate self-realization can give results without meditation. Dr. Samael Aun Weor, prolific esotericist author and anthropologist, was born amidst the tribulations of a society that was succumbing to materialism and the decadence of all ethical, philosophical and transcendental values. After enormous personal sacrifices, he achieved his personal Self-Realization and dedicated his entire life and his immense work to teaching humanity the path of the true Awakening of Consciousness, traditionally known as Gnosis. Samael Aun Weor delivers, in his more than sixty works and renouncing all personal benefits, hundreds of practices and all the keys (including the Secreto Secretorum) of true esotericism in depth that allows the seeker to discover by himself the answers and experience the results, through a psychological work based on three factors: To be born (alchemically), To Die (to everything illusory) and the Sacrifice for Humanity (to pay our karmic debts).You can find more information about this unrivaled author at www.samael.org.

| le rouge et le noir online: Armance Stendhal, 2021-03-31 On his twentieth birthday, Octave had just left the École Polytechnique. His father, the Marquis de Malivert, wished to keep his only son in Paris. As soon as Octave understood that this was the constant desire of a father whom he respected, and of his mother whom he loved with an almost passionate love, he abandoned his intention of entering the Artillery. He would have liked to spend a few years in a regiment, and then resign his commission until the next war, in which he was equally ready to serve as Lieutenant or with the rank of Colonel. This is typical of the eccentricities which made him odious to the common run of humanity. |

| le rouge et le noir online: Memoirs of an Egotist Stendhal, 2021-03-22 This book contains the memoirs of Stendahl or in his own words the 'chatter about his private life' between 1821 and 1830. It was between these dates that he moved to Paris and here looks back on his life as an eccentric bachelor. 'As well as Beyle the clairvoyant self-investigator, the sardonic analyst of Parisian salon society and deliberate cultivator of wit, here emerges Beyle the despairing lover, the shakespearean enthusiast, whose romantic sentiment run always parallel with his eighteenth-century logic'. Marie-Henri Beyle - better-known by his pen name, Stendhal - was born in Grenoble, France in 1783. He turned to writing after the final defeat of Napoleon in 1815, notable works include A Life of Rossini (1824), A Life of Napoleon (1929) and The Red and the Black published in 1830. A number of works were published posthumously, including Lamiel (1889), Memoirs of an Egotist (1892) and Lucien Leuwen (1894). Stendhal is now regarded as one of the earliest and foremost practitioners of literary realism. |

| le rouge et le noir online: Italian Chronicles Stendhal, 2017-05-02 Nineteenth-century French writer Marie-Henri Beyle, better known by his pen name Stendhal, is one of the earliest leading practitioners of realism, his stories filled with sharp analyses of his characters’ psychology. This translation of Stendhal’s Chroniques italiennes is a collection of nine tales written between 1829 and 1840, many of which were published only after his death. Together these collected tales reveal a great novelist working with highly dramatic subject matter to forge a vision of life lived at its most intense. The setting for these tales is a romanticized Italy, a place Stendhal viewed as unpolluted by bourgeois inhibitions and conformism. From the hothouse atmosphere of aristocratic convents to the horrors of the Cenci family, the tales in Italian Chronicles all feature passionate, transgressive characters engaged in “la chasse au bonheur”—the quest for happiness. Most of the tragic, violent tales are based on historical events, with Stendhal using history to validate his characters’ extreme behaviors as they battle literal and figurative oppression and try to break through to freedom. Complete with revenge, bloody daggers, poisonings, and thick-walled nunneries, this new translation of Italian Chronicles includes four never-before-translated stories and a fascinating introduction detailing the origins of the book. It is sure to gratify established Stendhal fans as well as readers new to the writer. |
| le rouge et le noir online: The Education of a Value Investor Guy Spier, 2014-09-09 What happens when a young Wall Street investment banker spends a small fortune to have lunch with Warren Buffett? He becomes a real value investor. In this fascinating inside story, Guy Spier details his career from Harvard MBA to hedge fund manager. But the path was not so straightforward. Spier reveals his transformation from a Gordon Gekko wannabe, driven by greed, to a sophisticated investor who enjoys success without selling his soul to the highest bidder. Spier's journey is similar to the thousands that flock to Wall Street every year with their shiny new diplomas, aiming to be King of Wall Street. Yet what Guy realized just in the nick of time was that the King really lived 1,500 miles away in Omaha, Nebraska. Spier determinedly set out to create a new career in his own way. Along the way he learned some powerful lessons which include: Spier also reveals some of his own winning investment strategies, detailing deals that were winners but also what he learned from deals that went south. Part memoir, part Wall Street advice, and part how-to, Guy Spier takes readers on a ride through Wall Street--but, more importantly, provides those that want to take a different path with the insight, guidance, and inspiration they need to carve out their own definition of success. |
