Having spent a good many years as a researcher of African art, I understand that education is of critical importance. This Encyclopedia is designed to bring benefits of knowledge to students, artists, collectors and for all lovers of African traditional art and culture. Avner Shakarov introduces African art in the context of the peoples who created it. Students and artists will find this Encyclopedia: Art of Africa as a fresh handbook, thought-provoking and a good deal more scholarly than most other writings on African art. African art has taken its place among the great art traditions of the world. It was collected as souvenirs and curios by European travelers in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Later, a great deal was written about its influence on Picasso, Matisse, Braque, and other western artists. This book is well researched and studied in the rich heritage of black Africa through its most distinctive form, sculpture, and covers the entire continent. The book contains 95 images of African art, 30 tribal and village photos, 16 drawings and 5 maps to help locate geographically the peoples who created the works of art.

This gripping read is based on an original report by Donald Keyhoe a former USA serviceman, charged by a magazine to investigate the reports of UFO activity. It documents the unexplained encounters between aircraft and military personnel in the mid and late forties. The book explores whether aliens have been visiting the Earth for centuries and if the military was actively investigating and covering up these visits. Newly edited, and with some new illustrations added, this is a must have book for the person interested in Unidentified Flying Objects.

This is the first thorough, authoritative study of the place-names of the entire pre-1974 Flintshire, scholarly in substance, readable in presentation, with its selection of names based on the OS Landranger 1:50,000 map. The entry for each of the 800 names presents a grid reference, documentary and oral evidence with dates, derivation and meaning, and a discussion of the significance of the name in terms of history, language, landscape and industrial associations. Additionally, comparisons are drawn with similar names in other parts of Wales and the UK, and the later linguistic development of names is charted in light of the particular influences of a bilingual society.Acknowledgements Preface Introduction Place-Names of Flintshire Glossary of Elements Index of related names Sources and Abbreviations Select Bibliography Relevant on-line data-bases

The Place-Names of Wales was originally published in 1998 and reissued in 2005 in the Pocket Guide series. This current updated publication adds some thirty entries, which importantly take into consideration more recent research. The entry for each place-name provides details of historical forms and dates; analyses each name into its component linguistic elements; tracks the later linguistic development of the name and the influences upon it particularly within a bilingual society; compares the name with similar names elsewhere, and interprets that meaning within the history of Wales and in the local context having regard for the landscape and changing land-use. In addition to explaining the link between place-names and language, history and landscape, the introduction includes a section on the significance of place-name study, and a short section to allow non-Welsh speakers to understand some relevant sound-changes.

Particulièrement novateur et sans équivalence connue, ce dictionnaire a été conçu par un Rom et ambitionne de contribuer à l'étude et à la vulgarisation d'une langue encore inconnue au plus grand nombre, pour le service de l'entente entre les communautés. Langue de l'oralité par excellence, elle a accompagné l'histoire des dix siècles de migration de ses locuteurs. Les linguistes n'ont d'ailleurs commencé à formaliser ses règles lexicales et grammaticales que très récemment...

Tout a été écrit sur la Corée du Nord. Sauf cette situation, unique au monde, d'une langue parlée à l'origine par une même population sur un même territoire, et qui se trouve depuis près de 70 ans comme séparée en deux. La langue parlée au Nord, à l'écart du monde moderne, celle au Sud, résolument engagée dans la contemporanéité. Le même idiome, mais aujourd'hui deux langues, qui se différencient dans le vocabulaire, l'écriture, mais également la prononciation.

Ce livre se veut un supplément aux Guides des films de la collection Bouquins qui recensait en cinq tomes plus de 20 000 films tournés entre 1898 et 2017. La pandémie éclatée en 2020 a entraîné la fermeture des salles pendant de longs mois. Désormais s'ouvre l'ère du cinéma à la maison avec le succès de la vidéo à la demande alors que les salles obscures étaient privées de public. Une étude du Centre national du cinéma a montré qu'en 2020 la vidéo à la demande a progressé de 35,8 %. De nouveaux géants apparaissent supplantant les Paramount, MGM, Universal ou Gaumont. Ils s'appellent Netflix, Amazon, Canal Video ou Disney. Dans ce volume, on trouvera les principaux films des cinq dernières années dont certains distribués sur Netflix, sélection qui pourra sembler subjective comme les jugements qui y sont formulés, mais il s'agit d'un guide et non d'un dictionnaire. Grâce aux chaînes de télévision françaises ou étrangères, aux sorties en DVD ou aux programmes des cinémathèques ont été redécouverts des films anciens oubliés ou négligés dans les tomes précédents et qui ont trouvé leur place dans ce volume. 1 000 films sont ici référencés dans ce nouveau répertoire, ce qui permet de se faire une idée de la richesse du 7e art.

Comment peut-on transformer une langue de civilisation de l'oralité à celle de langue de civilisation de l'écrit sans un Etat qui s'en réclame et qui la fait sienne ? Ce dictionnaire est une compilation de lexiques publiés précédemment par l'auteur, revus, corrigés et augmentés. Il est présenté par thèmes pour faciliter la réalisation d'un inventaire le plus exhaustif possible du patrimoine lexical. Ce travail, qui consiste en la réalisation de dictionnaires de tous les parlers berbères, doit bénéficier de tous les moyens de l'Etat, notamment grâce aux effets de la discrimination positive, sachant que la langue tamazirt a été, pendant très longtemps, niée et combattue.
