Abstract

Quand j'avais sept ans, on m'appelait la Petite Bijou. Il a souri. Il trouvait certainement cela charmant et tendre pour une petite fille. Lui aussi, j'en étais sûre, sa maman lui avait donné un surnom qu'elle lui murmurait à l'oreille, le soir, avant de l'embrasser. Patoche. Pinky. Poulou. Ce n'est pas ce que vous croyez, lui ai-je dit. Moi, c'était mon nom d'artiste.

Abstract

Extrait : ""ORLANDO : Je me rappelle bien, Adam ; tel a été mon legs, une misérable somme de mille écus dans son testament ; et, comme tu dis, il a chargé mon frère, sous peine de sa malédiction, de me bien élever, et voilà la cause de mes chagrins. Il entretient mon frère Jacques à l'école, et la renommée parle magnifiquement de ses progrès. Pour moi, il m'entretient au logis en paysan, ou pour mieux dire, il me garde ici sans aucun entretien""

Abstract

A mosaic of memories, the poems of This Country of Mothers recollect Julianna Baggott's experiences as both mother and daughter. With wit, compassion, aggression, and anxiety, Baggott examines her maternal history. She recalls moments of creation and destruction in her life, times of elation and of desperation that mold her as both a woman and a poet. This affecting study of motherhood is framed in issues of Catholicism and of poetry itself, challenging and espousing the roles of both. Throughout her poems, Baggott's personal experiences embrace universal themes to birth po

Abstract

Ouvrage inclassable, mêlant souvenirs, analyse littéraire, approche sociale, philosophique des mythes et des contes, Petites filles d’autrefois ouvre la boîte noire de l’éducation des filles en Europe de 1750 à 1940.L’autrice inscrit son portrait de l’enfance des filles sous un attendu liminal : quel que soit son milieu social, « la petite fille est toujours marquée du signe du sacrifice ».Produisant une généalogie des femmes actuelles en Occident, elle se penche sur la longue chaîne fibrée de femmes dont elles descendent. Elle démonte, dans une langue souveraine qui allie l’aiguisé du concept et la rêverie poétique, les mécanismes de dressage, de gouvernance des filles, soulignant l’éducation sévère, les conditionnements sociaux, l’absence de liberté, la programmation au mariage ou au convent dont elles sont victimes dans les sociétés européennes du milieu du siècle des Lumières à la deuxième guerre mondiale. Peu à peu, les femmes sont montées sur la scène de l’Histoire, sortant de leur relégation dans l’économie domestique pour devenir actrices de l’espace public. Comment l’ordre patriarcal s’est-il maintenu, consolidé, transmis au fil des siècles ? Comment les contes, les mythes, la littérature ont-ils concouru à forger l’imaginaire collectif, à cantonner les héros et les héroïnes à des rôles, des actions dictés par leur genre ?Telles sont les questions, étonnamment modernes, que pose ce remarquable essai dont la première édition a paru il y aura bientôt quarante ans.

Abstract

From the best-selling author of Americanah and We Should All Be Feminists comes a powerful new statement about feminism today - written as a letter to a friend. I have some suggestions for how to raise Chizalum. But remember that you might do all the things I suggest, and she will still turn out to be different from what you hoped, because sometimes life just does its thing. What matters is that you try. In We Should All be Feminists, her eloquently argued and much admired essay of 2014, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie proposed that if we want a fairer world we need to raise our sons and daughters differently. Here, in this remarkable new book, Adichie replies by letter to a friend's request for help on how to bring up her newborn baby girl as a feminist. With its fifteen pieces of practical advice it goes right to the heart of sexual politics in the twenty-first century. Review: 'Take note world. When Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie tells you to listen, you listen' Stylist 'Dear Ijeawele reminds us that, in the history of feminist writing, it is often the personal and epistolary voice that carries the political story most powerfully - For me, the most powerful sentence in the book is its simplest, and comes in only the third paragraph. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie urges Ijeawele to remember to transmit to her daughter "the solid unbending belief that you start off with ... Your feminist premise should be: I matter. I matter equally. Not 'if only'. Not 'as long as'. I matter equally. Full stop."..there is no doubt that if we raised all of our daughters to believe completely that they "matter equally", to trust what they feel and think and to worry less about how they look and come across, we would soon find new ways to challenge the multiple injustices and indignities that still limit, and even wreck, so many women's lives.' New Statesman Praise for Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie: 'The book I'd press into the hands of girls and boys, as an inspiration for a future "world of happier men and happier women who are truer to themselves"' Books of the Year, Independent 'A writer with a great deal to say' The Times 'Here is a new writer endowed with the gift of ancient storytellers.' Chinua Achebe 'Adiche [has] virtuosity, boundless empathy and searing social acuity' Dave Eggers.
