Elle étudie aussi la place de l'espèce canine dans la mythologie et la religion, et dans des cultes anciens aussi divers que ceux de l'Alaska, de la Grèce, du Pérou et de la Perse. Elle compare l'histoire des chiens en Extrême-Orient, en Europe, en Afrique et aux Amériques, discute du phénomène assez récent d'élevage et de création d'espèces et du statut de ces animaux dans la science et la fiction. Elle expose leurs contributions multiples et variées à nos vies, comme compagnons ou aides d'aveugles, mais aussi à la littérature, au cinéma où à la recherche scientifique. «Chiens» nous éclaire sur la manière dont hommes et chiens se sont mutuellement façonnés au cours des millénaires.

Pour tenter de composer avec cette obsession elle choisit d'écrire à cet homme. Par jeu ou par défi, son mari décide de lui écrire à son tour. De cette situation triangulaire insolite, Chris Kraus tire une méditation subversive sur la place des femmes dans le couple et dans le monde d'aujourd'hui. Elle pousse l'exploration du désir féminin à son comble, nous entraîne dans les tréfonds d'une quête acharnée qui la conduit à traverser l'Amérique et à faire chemin seule, dans l'espoir d'une possible renaissance. C'est donc moins à une relecture des Liaisons dangereuses que de Madame Bovarg à laquelle nous invite Chris Kraus dans ce livre culte qui efface les limites entre fiction, essai et récit autobiographique pour mieux sonder les multiples visages du discours amoureux.

Summary:
The first volume in a new series on critical concerns in the history of American art, 'Picturing' brings together essays by scholars who discuss the creation and consumption of images from the early modern period through the end of the twentieth century. Some of the contributions focus on art critical texts, like Gertrude Stein’s portrait of Cézanne, while others have as their point of departure particular artworks, from a portrait of Benjamin Franklin to Eadweard Muybridge’s nineteenth-century photographs of the California Coast. Works that addressed images and image making were not confined to the academy; they spilled out into poetry, literature, theater, and philosophy, and the essays’ considerations likewise range freely, from painting to natural history illustrations, travel narratives, and popular fiction. Together, the contributions demonstrate a rich deliberation that thoroughly debunks the notion that American art is merely derivative of a European tradition.

Summary:
Are we deranged? The acclaimed Indian novelist Amitav Ghosh argues that future generations may well think so. How else to explain our imaginative failure in the face of global warming? In his first major book of nonfiction since In an Antique Land, Ghosh examines our inability—at the level of literature, history, and politics—to grasp the scale and violence of climate change. The extreme nature of today’s climate events, Ghosh asserts, make them peculiarly resistant to contemporary modes of thinking and imagining. This is particularly true of serious literary fiction: hundred-year storms and freakish tornadoes simply feel too improbable for the novel; they are automatically consigned to other genres. In the writing of history, too, the climate crisis has sometimes led to gross simplifications; Ghosh shows that the history of the carbon economy is a tangled global story with many contradictory and counterintuitive elements.

Résolument politique, cet ouvrage collectif de textes de fiction (poésie, récits, nouvelles et textes hybrides) pense l’affect, les mécanismes de défense, les obsessions, les impulsions, la mélancolie, la douleur chronique ou l’anxiété comme des voies privilégiées pour aborder toutes les manières de prendre soin de soi, qu’elles soient new age, ancestrales, individualistes, solidaires ou (anti) capitalistes. Sans bouder les sheet masks et les eye patches, ces auteurices méditent, font du yoga, pratiquent une sexualité complexe, s’engagent politiquement et, surtout, écrivent. Leurs textes sont dotés d’un tel sentiment d’urgence qu’ils prouvent que le self-care des personnes socialement marginalisées est toujours investi d’une quête plus grande : pour elles, prendre soin de soi, c’est aussi se réparer et se recréer collectivement.

Summary:
In this book, Jean-Thomas Tremblay argues that difficult breathing indexes the uneven distribution of risk in a contemporary era marked by the increasing contamination, weaponization, and monetization of air. Tremblay shows how biopolitical and necropolitical forces tied to the continuation of extractive capitalism, imperialism, and structural racism are embodied and experienced through respiration. They identify responses to the crisis in breathing in aesthetic practices ranging from the film work of Cuban American artist Ana Mendieta to the disability diaries of Bob Flanagan, to the Black queer speculative fiction of Renee Gladman. In readings of these and other minoritarian works of experimental film, endurance performance, ecopoetics, and cinema-vérité, Tremblay contends that articulations of survival now depend on the management and dispersal of respiratory hazards. In so doing, they reveal how an aesthetic attention to breathing generates historically, culturally, and environmentally situated tactics and strategies for living under precarity.

The book looks at every single mission – manned and unmanned – that has actually landed on the moon. It covers the time of the beginning of the Soviet and American space race with the landing of Luna 2 in 1959, to the present with China’s Chang’e 3 moon rover. This architectural guide differentiates itself from other scientific and educational books through its abstract approach to the topic of architecture on the moon. The content does not feature science fiction, but rather the question of what exists and what implications these bizarre structures hold for the future of architecture on other planets – as these topics are quite pertinent in today’s world of the commercialization of spaceflight, with SpaceX and NASA planning to take humans to Mars in the next 15 years.

Summary:
Approaching the comic medium as a supercollider for achieving maximum abstraction, in ''Chronosis'' artist Keith Tilford and philosopher Reza Negarestani create a graphically stunning and conceptually explosive universe in which the worlds of pop culture, modern art, philosophy, science fiction, and theoretical physics crash into one another. Taking place after the catastrophic advent of the birth of time, ''Chronosis'' narrates the story of a sprawling multiverse at the center of which monazzeins, the monks of an esoteric time-cult, attempt to build bridges between the many fragmented tribes and histories of multiple possible worlds. Across a series of dizzying overlapping stories we glimpse worlds where time flows backward, where the universe can be recreated every five minutes, or where rigid facts are washed away by the tides of an infinite ocean of possibility. A unique fusion of comics culture and philosophical cogitation, this conceptually and visually mind-expanding tale takes the reader on a dizzying rollercoaster ride through time, space, and thought.

The second story depicts the way in which three generations of women differ in their attitudes and expectations; and ''Sisters'' is a story of a deserted wife and a prostitute who find a common bond. Each story unfolds against a backdrop populated by the ''ordinary'' Russian people of the time- Party workers, entrepreneurs, prostitutes, manipulators, and idealists.

Ballard, William Gibson, and Octavia Butler, but also the testimony of more obscure luminaries such as Echidna Stillwell, Oskar Sarkon, and Madame Centauri, are clarified and subjected to systematic investigation, comparison, and assessment so as to gauge the real stakes of the Time-War still raging behind the collapsing facade of reality. One of the most compelling and unnerving collective research enterprises to have surfaced in the twentieth century, the real pertinence of the CCRU's work is only now beginning to reveal itself to an unbelieving world. To plunge into the tangled mesh of these conspiracies, weird tales, numerical plagues, and suggestive coincidences is to test your sense of reality beyond the limits of reasonable tolerance-to enter the sphere of unbelief, where demonic currents prowl, where fictions make themselves real. Hyperstition.
