Abstract

Why is social media in southeast Italy so predictable when it is used by such a range of different people? This book describes the impact of social media on the population of a town in the southern region of Puglia, Italy. Razvan Nicolescu spent 15 months living among the town's residents, exploring what it means to be an individual on social media. Why do people from this region conform on platforms that are designed for personal expression? Nicolescu argues that social media use in this region of the world is related to how people want to portray themselves. He pays special attention to the ability of users to craft their appearance in relation to collective ideals, values and social positions, and how this feature of social media has, for the residents of the town, become a moral obligation: they are expected to be willing to adapt their appearance to suit their different audiences at the same time, which is crucial in a town where religion and family are at the heart of daily life.

Abstract

Depuis sept siècles, la Chine exerce une étonnante fascination sur l'Occident. Dès les premiers contacts, elle est apparue comme un objet de désir plutôt que de connaissance et, très vite, elle est devenue une construction imaginaire et un enjeu des débats internes de l'Occident. C'est l'histoire de la Chine comme l'ont comprise et imaginée les Occidentaux que retrace ici le grand sinologue américain Jonathan D. Spence. Pour rendre compte de cette fascination, il fait appel aux récits des voyageurs, aux systèmes des philosophes, aux rapports des diplomates, aux témoignages des missionnaires et, surtout, aux œuvres des grands écrivains qui, de Mendes Pinto à Italo Calvino, en passant par Voltaire, Segalen et Brecht, ont voulu communiquer leur vision de la Chine. Grossiers ou subtils, généreux ou empreints de préjugés, sobres ou avides d'exotisme, ces documents nous en apprennent finalement autant sur l'Occident que sur la Chine.

Abstract

This book brings together six expert contributors to examine the production and use of medieval manuscripts containing classical Latin texts. The contributors consider everything from the physical qualities of the manuscripts to what we can learn about how their readers used and interacted with them; ultimately, they also make a case for the value of studying not just specific classical manuscripts, but distinct groups of them, showing how such a collective approach can add to our understanding of how they functioned in medieval society.
