Abstract

Sir Richard Jebb (1841-1905) was the outstanding British classical scholar of the second half of the nineteenth century. This memoir, published by his widow in 1907, gives a rounded picture of the man chiefly remembered today for his editions of the plays of Sophocles, but who was also instrumental in founding the British Schools of Archaeology in Athens and Rome and the British Academy, and who as a Member of Parliament for Cambridge University played a significant part in the politics of his day, especially in educational reform at both school and university level. Extracts from his letters and speeches show the energy and enthusiasm which he brought to his many roles, and a sense of humour which may not be too evident in his published work but was remembered by his students as a feature of the lectures which secured his reputation as a great teacher.

Abstract

Depuis quelques années, l'archéologie de la montagne connaît un indéniable regain d'intérêt. Les problématiques liées au statut des espaces d'altitude irriguent des programmes pluridisciplinaires, actuellement menés ou projetés dans les différents massifs européens. Dans ce contexte, les approches diachroniques et géoarchéologiques permettent désormais de mieux connaître des territoires qu'une absence de recherche et certains présupposés maintenaient encore naguère dans un état proche de la terra incognita. Cette dynamique est rythmée par toute une série de rencontres internationales dans laquelle s'inscrit la table ronde qui s'est déroulée au Musée-Muséum départemental de Gap entre le 29 septembre et le 1er octobre 2008. Les vingt-neuf contributions rassemblées dans le présent volume reflètent à la fois la diversité des zones étudiées et l'interdisciplinarité des recherches. Avec cette publication, nous espérons contribuer de façon significative au dialogue et à la coordination nécessaires entre les équipes de recherche se vouant à l'étude de la présence et de l'activité de l'homme au coeur des écosystèmes de moyenne et de haute montagne en Europe, des milieux bien particuliers, parfois difficiles à appréhender et trop longtemps restés en marge des terrains d'investigation de l'archéologie.

Abstract

The monograph ('Home and Work on Farms: The Study of Generations and Gender Relationships') consists of eight thematically related chapters discussing ‘home and work’ in the farm population. The authors interpret some basic results of empirical research on generations and gender relations on farms through the review and analysis of some strategic national documents on farming development in Slovenia and domestic and foreign studies on the issue. Knjiga je sestavljena iz osmih vsebinsko povezanih poglavij, ki obravnavajo prepletenost dela in doma kmečkega prebivalstva. Avtorici v njej predstavljata temeljne rezultate empirične raziskave o odnosih med generacijami in spoloma na kmetijah, ki jih presojata tako v okviru strateških dokumentov razvoja kmetijstva v Sloveniji kot tudi širšega nabora tovrstnih raziskav doma in v tujini.

Abstract

This is the incredible story of Bao Luong, Vietnam's first female political prisoner. In 1927, when she was just 18, Bao Luong left her village home to join Ho Chi Minh's Revolutionary Youth League and fight both for national independence and for women's equality. A year later, she became embroiled in the Barbier Street murder, a crime in which unruly passion was mixed with revolutionary ardor. Weaving together Bao Luong's own memoir with excerpts from newspaper articles, family gossip, and official documents, this book by Bao Luong's niece takes us from rural life in the Mekong Delta to the bustle of colonial Saigon. It provides a rare snapshot of Vietnam in the first decades of the twentieth century and a compelling account of one woman's struggle to make a place for herself in a world fraught with intense political intrigue.
