"The Bagnios of Algiers" and "The Great Sultana" Two Plays of Captivity【電子書籍】[ Miguel de Cervantes ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Best known today as the author of <em>Don Quixote</em>ーone of the most beloved and widely read novels in the Western traditionーMiguel de Cervantes Saavedra (1547-1616) was a poet and a playwright as well. After some early successes on the Madrid stage in the 1580s, his theatrical career was interrupted by other literary efforts. Yet, eager to prove himself as a playwright, shortly before his death he published a collection of his later plays before they were ever performed.</p> <p>With their depiction of captives in North Africa and at the Ottoman court, two of these, "The Bagnios of Algiers" and "The Great Sultana," draw heavily on Cervantes's own experiences as a captive, and echo important episodes in <em>Don Quixote</em>. They are set in a Mediterranean world where Spain and its Muslim neighbors clashed repeatedly while still remaining in close contact, with merchants, exiles, captives, soldiers, and renegades frequently crossing between the two sides. The plays provide revealing insights into Spain's complex perception of the world of Mediterranean Islam.</p> <p>Despite their considerable literary and historical interest, these two plays have never before been translated into English. This edition presents them along with an introductory essay that places them in the context of Cervantes's drama, the early modern stage, and the political and cultural relations between Christianity and Islam in the early modern period.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,533円

American Slaves and African Masters Algiers and the Western Sahara, 1776-1820【電子書籍】[ C. Sears ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Whether by falling prey to Algerian corsairs or crashing onto the desert shores of Western Sahara, a handful of Americans in the first years of the Republic found themselves enslaved in a system that differed so markedly from nineteenth century U.S. slavery that some contemporaries and modern scholars hesitate to categorize their experiences as 'slavery.' Sears uses a comparative approach, placing African enslavement of Americans and Europeans in the context of Mediterranean and Ottoman slaveries, while individually investigating the system of slavery in Algiers and Western Sahara. This work illuminates the commonalities and peculiarities of these slaveries, while contributing to a growing body of literature that showcases the flexibility of slavery as an institution.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 6,076円

The Kings of Algiers How Two Jewish Families Shaped the Mediterranean World during the Napoleonic Wars and Beyond【電子書籍】[ Julie Kalman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A richly detailed history of the Bacris and the Busnachs, two renowned Jewish families whose influence and reputation shook the capitals of Europe and America</strong></p> <p>At the height of the Napoleonic Wars, the Bacri brothers and their nephew, Naphtali Busnach, were perhaps the most notorious Jews in the Mediterranean. Based in the strategic port of Algiers, their interconnected families traded in raw goods and luxury items, brokered diplomatic relations with the Ottomans, and lent vital capital to warring nations. For the French, British, and Americans, who competed fiercely for access to trade and influence in the region, there was no getting around the Bacris and the Busnachs. <em>The Kings of Algiers</em> traces the rise and fall of these two trading families over four tumultuous decades in the nineteenth century.</p> <p>In this panoramic book, Julie Kalman restores their storyーand Jewish history more broadlyーto the histories of trade, corsairing, and high-stakes diplomacy in the Mediterranean during the Napoleonic Wars and their aftermath. Jacob Bacri dined with Napoleon himself. Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and Horatio Nelson considered strategies to circumvent the Bacris’ influence. As the families’ ambitions grew, so did the perils, from imprisonment and assassination to fraud and family collapse.</p> <p><em>The Kings of Algiers</em> brings vividly to life an age of competitive imperialism and nascent nationalism and demonstrates how people and events on the periphery shaped perceptions and decisions in the distant metropoles of the world’s great nations.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,419円

Far From Algiers【電子書籍】[ Djelloul Marbrook ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>“How honored I amーhow luckyーto have been able to choose this superb first book by Djelloul Marbrook that honors a lifetime of hidden achievement. . . . Sometimes the poems seem utterly symbolic, surreal; they are philosophical, historical, psychological, political, and spiritual. The genius is in the many ways these poems can be read. I kept being rewarded by new awarenesses of the poet’s intentions, by the breadth and scope of the manuscript. As I read, I felt more and more that it was impossible that this was a first book. It seemed the writer knew exactly what to say, and, more importantly, exactly what to leave out.”<br /> <strong>ーToi Derricotte, judge</strong></p> <p>“In a dizzying and divisive time, it’s beautiful to see how Djelloul Marbrook’s wise and flinty poems outfox the Furies of exile, prejudice, and longing. Succinct, aphoristic, rich with the poet’s resilient clarity in the face of a knockabout world, <em>Far from Algiers</em> is a remarkable and distinctive debut.”<br /> <strong>ーCyrus Cassells</strong></p> <p>“Djelloul Marbrook, ‘a highly skilled outsider,’ bursts into poetry with this splendid first book, which brings together the energy of a young poet with the wisdom of long experience.”<br /> <strong>ーEdward Hirsch</strong></p> <p>Djelloul Marbrook started writing poems in Manhattan when he was fourteen. In his thirties he abandoned poetry after publishing a few poems in small journals, but he never stopped reading and studying poetry. Then at age sixty-seven, appalled by the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the poet within awakened. Stuffing sky-blue notebooks in his pockets, Marbrook began walking around Manhattan determined to affirm his beloved home in the wake of the nihilistic attacks. <em>Far from Algiers</em> emerged from hundreds of poems he has composed in the years since.</p> <p>Marbrook’s voice speaks to anyone who has ever had doubts about belonging. Born in Algiers to an American artist and a Bedouin father and arriving in America as a gravely ill infant, Marbrook has contemplated this issue throughout his life. <em>Far from Algiers</em> explores “belonging” in a society that is in denial about its own nativist sentiments. It speaks of the struggle to belong in a culture that pays lip service to assimilation but does not fully accept anyone perceived as “foreign.” Marbrook examines this issue with unflinching honesty. Anyone rejected by a family member or neighbor or coworker will relate to these well-crafted and moving poems.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,388円

The Captives: Eleven Years a Prisoner in Algiers【電子書籍】[ James Leander Cathcart ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>"James Leander Cathcart (1767-1843), a seaman...was captured by Barbary pirates and imprisoned for 11 years in the 1780s in Algiers. Buying his freedom, he returned to the United States." -<em>Arizona Daily Star, Dec. 1, 2002</em><br /> "James Leander Cathcart...was captured on the Maria, made a fortune while still a slave and served as the ruling Dey's secretary." -<em>Baltimore Sun, Oct. 9, 1966</em><br /> "The first American hostages held by a Moslem country were captured by Algerian pirates in 1785...James Leandor Cathcart, a seaman aboard the Maria rose in time to become the Dey's chief clerk." -<em>Chicago Tribune, Oct. 26, 1980</em></strong></p> <p>Taken prisoner by the Barbary Pirates, how did an indomitable spirit of patriotism enable Cathcart to rise from abject slavery to become Christian clerk to the Dey of Algiers, eventually gaining his freedom?</p> <p>In 1785 Barbary pirates captured the American merchant ship The Maria Boston, on its way to Cadiz carrying furs, lumber, and dried codfish. They took Cathcart and twenty other sailors as slaves. During the eleven years of his slavery in Algiers Cathcart managed by means of good fortune, cleverness, and bribery to improve his circumstances, eventually becoming chief clerk to the Dey. In this position, he acted as a mediator between the Dey and Joseph Donaldson, Jr. agent for Colonel David Humphreys, the U.S. Minister to Portugal, that resulted in The Treaty of Algiers of 1796 and made possible his freedom.</p> <p>Cathcart, for the first several years of his captivity, endured the same terrible living conditions as his fellow slaves. One of a few handpicked by the Dey, Cathcart's first duties were to work in the Dey's palace garden caring for the lions, tigers, and antelopes. Although his assigned duties were relatively light, his masters provided scant food and administered several beatings, called bastinado, where in one instance Cathcart lost several of his toenails.</p> <p>In 1899, Cathcart's account of his captivity would be published posthumously under the title " The Captives: Eleven Years a Prisoner in Algiers," thanks to Cathcart's daughter who would put together his slave narrative and have it published 56 years after his death.</p> <p>As his fortunes and positions in Algiers improved, Cathcart acquired additional skills that he used later as a diplomat. He found opportunities to demonstrate his concern for his fellow prisoners. During his slavery he became conversant in Arabic and Turkish. When Cathcart became clerk of the prison, he was able to buy several taverns, a house with servants, and procure more food for his fellow crew members. After the Treaty of Algiers freed them, Cathcart had the means to purchase a ship, which he sailed to Philadelphia in 1796 with twelve surviving members of the original crew.</p> <p>He returned to the Barbary Coast in December 1798, as special agent to William Eaton. In 1802, he was appointed US Consul to Tunis and Tripoli. He participated in the negotiation of additional treaties with Algiers, Tunis, and Tripoli. He served as Consul-General for the United States in C?diz from 1807?17, where he operated a merchant business with Richard Worsam Meade. Cathcart served in the diplomatic corps for the United States during the administrations of John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison.</p> <p>About the author:</p> <p>James Leander Cathcart (1767 ?1843) was a diplomat, slave, and sailor. He is notable for his narrative as a slave in Algiers for eleven years. He joined the American Revolution and at the age of twelve served on a privateer. Three years later, as a midshipman on The Confederacy, he was captured by the British and imprisoned on the prisoner ships, The Good Hope and Jersey from which he escaped in 1782.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 132円

Selected Short Works of Arnold Bennett: In the Capital of the Sahara, A Solution of the Algiers Mystery, The Ghost of Lord Clarenceux, The Fire of London, A Comedy on the Gold Coast, Lo! 'Twas a Gala Night!, The Dog, A Bracelet at Bruges【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Biskra is an oasis in the desert, and the capital of the Algerian Sahara. Two days’ journey by train from Algiers, over the Djujura Ranges, it is the last outpost of the Algerian State Railways. It has a hundred and sixty thousand palm trees; but the first symptom of Biskra to be observed from the approaching first-class carriage is the chimney of the electric light plant. Besides the hundred and sixty thousand palm trees, it possesses half a dozen large hotels, five native villages, a fort, a huge barracks, a very ornamental town hall, shops for photographic materials, a whole street of dancing-girls, the finest winter climate in all Africa, and a gambling Casino. It is a unique thing in oases. It completely upsets the conventional idea of an oasis as a pool of water bordered with a few date-palms, and the limitless desert all round! Nevertheless, though Biskra as much resembles Paris as it resembles the conventional idea of an oasis, it is genuine enough, and the limitless desert is, in fact, all around. You may walk out into the desert ー and meet a motor-car man?uvring in the sand; but the sand remains the sand, and the desert remains the desert, and the Sahara, more majestic than the sea itself, refuses to be cheapened by the pneumatic tyres of a Mercedes, or the blue rays of the electric light, or the feet of English, French, and Germans wandering in search of novelty ー it persists in being august. Once a year, in February, Biskra becomes really and excessively excited, and the occasion is its annual two-day race-meeting. Then the tribes and their chieftains and their horses and their camels arrive magically out of the four corners of the desert and fill the oasis. And the English, French, and Germans arrive from the Mediterranean coast, with their trunks and their civilisation, and crowd the hotels till beds in Biskra are precious beyond rubies. And under the tropical sun, East and West meet magnificently in the afternoon on the racecourse to the north of the European reserve. And the tribesmen, their scraggy steeds trailing superb horsecloths, are arranged in hundreds behind the motor-cars and landaus, with the pari-mutuel in full swing twenty yards away. And the dancing-girls, the renowned Ouled-Nails, covered with gold coins and with muslin in high, crude, violent purples, greens, vermilions, shriek and whinny on their benches just opposite the grand stand, where the Western women, arrayed in the toilettes of Worth, Doucet, and Redfern, quiz them through their glasses. And, fringing all, is a crowd of the adventurers and rascals of two continents, the dark and the light. And in the background the palms wave eternally in the breeze. And to the east the Aur?s mountains, snow-capped, rise in hues of saffron and pale rose, like stage mountains, against the sapphire sky. And to the south a line of telegraph poles lessens and disappears over the verge into the inmost heart of the mysterious and unchangeable Sahara.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 640円

Peace in Algiers【電子書籍】[ Jan D. Hendrix ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>It is 1962 and the French government has negotiated a peace agreement with the Algerian rebels. Although the agreement frees the French government, it leaves one million Europeans stranded in Algiers. Colonel Devon is a respected officer who has seen much combat during his military career. Lieutenant Adelle is a well-known markswoman who hits her targets with amazing speed and accuracy. When they are assigned to work together to facilitate the evacuation of the citizens waiting to be loaded on ships that will take them from war-torn Algiers, Devon makes it known that he has developed feelings for Adelle. But he is also battling a moral dilemma. Devon disagrees with his orders from Paris to stand down and not interrupt the NFL Algerians from confiscating the property of the Europeans. When the Colonel disobeys the order, he is called back to Paris and discharged from command. Will those who serve under him find peace in France, and will he and Adelle ever find their way back to each other? In this historical tale, a respected officer and well-known markswoman fall in love and are separated while evacuating Europeans misplaced by the French Algerian War.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 452円

The 1998?2000 Eritrea-Ethiopia War and Its Aftermath in International Legal Perspective From the 2000 Algiers Agreements to the 2018 Peace Agreement【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book centres on the war that raged between Eritrea and Ethiopia from 1998 to 2000, a war that caused great loss of life and tremendous devastation. It analyses the war in great detail from an international legal perspective: the nature and the state of the boundary conflict preceding the actual armed conflict, the military actions themselves, the role of the UN peace-keeping mission, the responsibility for the multitude of explosive remnants of the war left behind. Ample attention is paid to the decisions of the Eritrea-Ethiopia Claims Commission and the Eritrea-Ethiopia Boundary Commission.</p> <p>This study is not limited to the war and the period immediately following it, it also examines its more extended aftermath prolonging the analysis as far as the more recent improvement in the relations between Eritrea and Ethiopia, away from a situation of ‘no war, no peace’ that prevailed after the armed conflict ended. The analysis of the war and its aftermath is not only in terms of international legal issues, it has been placed in a wider than strictly legal perspective.</p> <p>The book is a valuable work for academics and practitioners in international law, human rights and humanitarian law in particular, for political scientists, diplomats, civil servants, historians, and all those others seriously interested in the Horn of Africa.</p> <p><strong>Andrea de Guttry</strong> is Full Professor of Public International Law at the Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna in Pisa, Italy.</p> <p><strong>Harry H.G. Post</strong> is Adjunct Professor in the Facult? Libre de Droit of the Universit? Catholique de Lille in Lille, France.</p> <p><strong>Gabriella Venturini</strong> is Professor Emerita in the Dipartimento di Studi internazionali, giuridici e storico-politici of the Universit? degli Studi di Milano in Milan, Italy.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 20,662円

The Lionkeeper of Algiers How an American Captive Rose to Power in Barbary and Saved His Homeland from War【電子書籍】[ Des Ekin ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>WINNER of the Journal of American Revolution's Book of the Year for 2023!</p> <p>In 1785, just a few years after U.S. Independence, a young American named James Leander Cathcart is kidnapped at sea and carried as prisoner to the maverick North African statelet of Algiers, where he is held as a political hostage along with hundreds of other seamen captured on the open seas. The piratical corsairs of Algiers have decided, without any warning, to exploit the vulnerability of the newborn United States by seizing its mariners and holding them for ransom while ruthlessly exploiting their free labor. Today, the name of James Leander Cathcart has been all but forgotten by history. And yet he was one of the most remarkable figures in the early story of the fledgling United States.</p> <p>The Lionkeeper of Algiers reveals the extraordinary and unlikely story of Cathcart, who, thanks to his flair for languages and his formidable human intuition, rose steadily up the ranks from lionkeeper at the Dey’s private zoo to become Chief Clerk at the Palace, along the way amassing a chain of taverns in Algiers that functioned as safe houses and food banks for American prisoners.</p> <p>Eleven years later, just one among more than one hundred US hostages in Algiers, Cathcart was paroled back to America and charged with delivering a vital letter to President George Washington, saving a tenuous peace deal and bringing the other captives home. Remarkably, his sense of honor compelled him to go back to Algiers ? where he had never formally been made free ? to see the peace project through. Cathcart would go on to become a U.S. diplomat in the lands where he was held captive for more than a decade.</p> <p>Featuring some of the most prominent Americans of the era like Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, as well as ordinary citizens like Hannah Stephens, the wife of a sea captain who tirelessly lobbied Congress until she was finally reunited with her husband after more than a decade, author Des Ekin’s captivating storytelling brings this adventure to life. This page-turning narrative follows the twists and turns of Cathcart’s own life upon the international stage of diplomacy, trade, and maritime statecraft at a time when America’s place in the world was hanging in the balance.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,200円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>If in a short-term perspective the battle of Algiers was an operational success since the terrorist attacks ended by the of fall 1957, the different methods used to gather intelligence proved to be strategically counterproductive and left an open wound on the French Society.</p> <p>In 1956, both internal and international political situations favored the Algerian National Liberation Front (FLN). In August, during a clandestine meeting in the Soummam valley (Kabylie), the FLN decided to direct the fighting against the European population in urban areas. Such an intensification of the conflict was aimed at winning a decisive battle: bringing the terror to Algiers was perceived as the last step before the independence.</p> <p>Facing a paralysis of regular courses of action, the French reacted to the terrorist wave by giving the military extraordinary police powers. Jacques Massu’s 10th Para Division implemented radical methods. From 20 January to 31 March 1957, it succeeded in disorganizing the whole insurgency (first battle). However, the tactical victory against terrorism was as blatant as it proved to be short-lived. Facing a resuming tactical threat, General Massu entrusted Colonel Yves Godard with the AOR of Algiers (second battle). If the first battle was fought using bloody swords, the second one, based on infiltration and disinformation operations, proved to be a surgical operation using scalpels. On 8 October 1957, the battle of Algiers ended.</p> <p>In a blurred conflict that belonged neither to police operations nor to conventional war, the legal black hole ineluctably led to the temptation of committing illegal acts. Paul Aussarresses and Yves Godard embodied the two opposite approaches that are distinguishable during the battle. Pushing the justification of illegal violence to the limit, Aussarresses represents the dark face of COIN operations while Godard repeatedly stated that there was no need to use torture.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 132円

Our Artist in Cuba, Peru, Spain and Algiers Leaves from The Sketch-Book of a Traveller, 1864-1868【電子書籍】[ George W. Carleton ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>ーー HE Author of these unpretending little wayside sketches offers them to the Public with the hesitating diffidence of an Amateur. The publication a few years ago, of a portion of the drawings was attended with so flattering a reception, that a new edition being called for, it is believed a few more Leaves from the same vagabond sketch-book may not be intrusive. The out-of-the-way sort of places in which the Author's steps have led him, must always present the most enticing subjects for a comic pencil; and although no attempt is here made to much more than hint at the oranges and volantes of Cuba, the earthquakes and buzzards of Peru, the donkeys and beggars of Spain, or the Arabs and dates of Algiers, yet sketches made upon the spot, with the crispy freshness of a first impression, cannot fail in suggesting at least a panoramic picture of such grotesque incidents as these strange Countries furnish. The drawings are merely the chance results of leisure moments; and Our Artist, in essaying to convey a ray of information through the glasses of humor, has simply multiplied with printers' ink his pocket-book of sketches, which, although caricatures, are exaggerations of actual events, jotted down on the impulse of the moment, for the same sort of idle pastime as may possibly lead the reader to linger along its ephemeral pages</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 640円

A Self-Realization Approach to Christian Ethics【電子書籍】[ Tod Algiers Pleinta ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>A Self-Realization Approach to Christian Ethics has only two components of success, self-realization or improvement of self, and Christian ethics or helping other people improve wherever they are. This is what Christians know as charity. The first component or the self-realization approach can be summed up by Sigmund Freud who warned, death comes not when our hearts stop beating, but when we stop growing. We are not human beings growing spiritually. We are spiritual beings in human body. Progressive personal growth is an eternal self-improvement, the first true component of success. If the truest success is but the improvement of self, and if the best form of self-improvement is virtue, and if virtue is the full use of ones powers along the lines of excellence, then we understand the arguments conclusion to follow: the truest form of success is the full use of ones powers along the lines of excellence. The direct approach to pursuing happiness, however, does not always give us the desired results. Usually we find genuine happiness by actively helping other people be happy. Charity is the highest, noblest, strongest kind of love, not merely affection. Charity is seeing the pure love of the friend we have in Jesus Christ, and in other people. Charity is not just acts of benevolence, although it may be a prompting motive. Charity is everlasting love. Charity is perfect love. The desire to serve other people and help them improve wherever they are is the heart of charity. Those who feel charity help other people out of sincere love, without expecting something in return. Charity is accomplished by looking for opportunities to serve others in whatever ways we can. Another way of describing these two components of happiness is: 1) realization of ones personal potential, and 2) perfecting ones interpersonal skills to socialize with charity beginning at home. These are the themes running through the fabric of this bookA Self-Realization Approach to Christian Ethics.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,144円

The Tooth Love, betrayal and death in Paris and Algiers in final months of the Algerian war【電子書籍】[ J.A.C. Lewis ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
Three young adults whose early years were blighted by World War Two cross paths in Paris in the early 1960s in the final months of Algeria's war for independence against France. They settle into a blissfully dissolute life on the Left Bank but the first is drawn into a deadly confrontation with a violent countryman while the second, who survived Auschwitz as a teenager, takes little interest in events unfolding around her. The Algerian conflict, however,?intrudes upon the life of the third, a British freelance?reporter. As a child, he was lightly wounded in a German V2 rocket attack but discovered only years later that the tooth of a woman killed in the blast had embedded itself in his leg. Given a choice of having it extracted, he opts to keep it there, feeling a strange affinity with the victim. He is assigned to cover developments in Paris and then in Algiers as madness grips the city, with extremist European bands roaming the streets and dispensing death to Moslems in the hope of preventing Algeria from claiming its independence. After affronting dangers in Algeria and in other wars, he comes to believe the tooth has helped to keep him safe, acting as a talisman and constant companion. ----画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 510円

Torture and the Twilight of Empire From Algiers to Baghdad【電子書籍】[ Marnia Lazreg ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Torture and the Twilight of Empire</em> looks at the intimate relationship between torture and colonial domination through a close examination of the French army's coercive tactics during the Algerian war from 1954 to 1962. By tracing the psychological, cultural, and political meanings of torture at the end of the French empire, Marnia Lazreg also sheds new light on the United States and its recourse to torture in Iraq and Afghanistan.</p> <p>This book is nothing less than an anatomy of torture--its methods, justifications, functions, and consequences. Drawing extensively from archives, confessions by former torturers, interviews with former soldiers, and war diaries, as well as writings by Jean-Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, and others, Lazreg argues that occupying nations justify their systematic use of torture as a regrettable but necessary means of saving Western civilization from those who challenge their rule. She shows how torture was central to <em>guerre r?volutionnaire</em>, a French theory of modern warfare that called for total war against the subject population and which informed a pacification strategy founded on brutal psychological techniques borrowed from totalitarian movements. Lazreg seeks to understand torture's impact on the Algerian population--especially women--and also on the French troops who became their torturers. She explores the roles Christianity and Islam played in rationalizing these acts, and the ways in which torture became not only routine but even acceptable.</p> <p>Written by a preeminent historical sociologist, <em>Torture and the Twilight of Empire</em> holds particularly disturbing lessons for us today as we carry out the War on Terror.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,985円

Fifty Years of "The Battle of Algiers" Past as Prologue【電子書籍】[ Sohail Daulatzai ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>The Battle of Algiers</em>, a 1966 film that poetically captures Algerian resistance to French colonial occupation, is widely considered one of the greatest political films of all time. With an artistic defiance that matched the boldness of the anticolonial struggles of the time, it was embraced across the political spectrumーfrom leftist groups like the Black Panther Party and the Palestine Liberation Organization to right-wing juntas in the 1970s and later, the Pentagon in 2003. With a philosophical nod to Frantz Fanon, Sohail Daulatzai demonstrates that tracing the film’s afterlife reveals a larger story about how dreams of freedom were shared and crushed in the fifty years since its release. As the War on Terror expands and the “threat” of the Muslim looms, <em>The Battle of Algiers</em> is more than an artifact of the pastーit’s a prophetic testament to the present and a cautionary tale of an imperial future, as perpetual war has been declared on permanent unrest.</p> <p>Forerunners: Ideas First is a thought-in-process series of breakthrough digital publications. Written between fresh ideas and finished books, Forerunners draws on scholarly work initiated in notable blogs, social media, conference plenaries, journal articles, and the synergy of academic exchange. This is gray literature publishing: where intense thinking, change, and speculation take place in scholarship.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 562円
