Hannibal Books 2023. PB+, 280 x 230 mm, 192 p, FR edition, Nouveau, illustrations en couleur. ISBN 9789464666717. À la charnière entre Orient et Occident, traversée par des voies commerciales reliées aux routes de la soie et objet des ambitions des grandes puissances qui l'ont de tout temps entourée, la Géorgie a été un lieu de rencontres et d'échanges dont elle a nourri sa culture. En résulte un patrimoine d'une richesse inouïe. Vin, feu & mythes On produit du vin en Géorgie depuis au moins 8000 ans. Il accompagne un art de la table ritualisé, à la cuisine raffinée, qui fait partie à part entière du patrimoine. Bien culturel le plus ancien de Géorgie, il servira de point de départ à l'exposition. Le travail du métal - or et bronze - occupera également une place cruciale dans le parcours. Dès l'âge du bronze, on développe sur les terres géorgiennes des pièces d'orfèvrerie d'une délicatesse et d'une somptuosité inouïes. C'est d'ailleurs en Géorgie que le mythe de la Toison d'Or trouve ses racines : la région était connue des Grecs pour sa grande richesse en or. Après les Grecs, qui y installèrent des comptoirs commerciaux, de nombreuses puissances se croiseront et s'affronteront sur ce petit territoire tant convoité du Caucase : Romains, Perses, Arabes, Byzantins, Mongols et Ottomans contribueront au métissage si particulier de la culture, mais sèmeront parfois aussi la destruction sur leur passage. Chrétienne depuis le 4e siècle, la Géorgie a lutté pour s'affirmer au milieu des grandes puissances qui l'entouraient. Elle y parviendra brillamment entre le 11e et le 13e siècle, période de l'âge d'or de la Géorgie unifiée, qui rayonne alors économiquement et culturellement dans tout le Moyen-Orient, sous le règne de son emblématique Reine Tamar., Hannibal Books 2023, 0, Toronto, Canada: McClelland & Stewart, 1993. Presumed first Canadian edition/first printing. Hardcover. Very good in good dust jacket. Price clipped. DJ has some wear and soiling.. 379 p. Illustrations (253 photograp[hs, 106 in full color). Index. Facsimile signatures on t-p and first pages of the several parts. Pierre Trudeau was prime minister of Canada from 1968 to 1979 and from 1980 to 1984. This is his story, told in his own words. As if he were sitting across the table from you, Pierre Trudeau reminisces about his life in an informal, direct way. He starts with his memories of his family, especially his mother and father, to whom the book is dedicated. There are memorable events from childhood here, such as a visit to complain to the principal on his second day at school. Later there is a lunchroom encounter with a high school bully and then, at the age of fifteen, real tragedy. After an extensive education at the Universite de Montreal, Harvard, the London School of Economics, and the Ecole libre des sciences politiques in Paris (where postwar shortages meant that he had "to undergo an appendectomy in a hospital that was short of anaesthetics"), Trudeau set off with a backpack to travel around the world. He tells how he went through one war zone after another, encountering armed bandits and narrowly missing pirates, and being arrested in wartime Jordan as a Jewish spy (where a truckload of hostile Arab soldiers made it clear that "there was nothing to stop them from killing me and dumping my corpse into the ravine that bordered the highway"). These adventures and further travels through India and war-torn China left him with a deep belief in the rights of the individual and the vital role of government in protecting these rights. From the day he decided to go to Ottawa as a Liberal member of Parliament in 1965, Trudeau was clearly on a fast track. After becoming minister of justice in 1967 he ran for the leadership and became prime minister in 1968. He talks about his use of "the Liberalmachine" and all the electoral fights that followed over the years, providing interesting insights into these contests.
