Summary:
L'histoire des femmes au XXe siècle est celle de leur émancipation. S'affranchissant de la tutelle de leur père ou de leur mari, elles finissent par obtenir tous les droits civiques, à l'égal des hommes. Ces cent années ont été pour les femmes une conquête de leur liberté. Comment ont-elles vécu durant ces décennies ? Quel sort leur réservait leur époque ? Qui étaient-elles ? Quelles femmes célèbres ont marqué leur temps ? Toutes ces vies ressurgissent à travers les 300 photographies rassemblées par l'agence photographique Roger-Viollet, de la fin du XIXe siècle à nos jours. Des images légendées par Agnès Grossmann, qui retrace et raconte la destinée de ces femmes.

Summary:
Newtown Creek is a tributary of New York's East River that forms part of the border between the boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens. During the Industrial Revolution, when its volume of commercial shipping traffic exceeded that of the Mississippi River, the creek was widened, deepened, and bulkheaded to accommodate bigger barges, destroying all its freshwater sources. As one of the oldest continuous industrial areas in the nation, it is now one of the most polluted. Newtown Creek is the first extensive documentation of this forgotten landscape. Anthony Hamboussi's five-year photographic survey captures the creek at a critical moment when gentrification and revitalization are just starting to change the area. From the ruins of Morgan Oil Company and the Newtown Metal Corporation to the footprints of the former Maspeth gasholders, Newtown Creek is a lost chapter in the visual history of industrial New York framed at the moment of its disappearance and transformation.

Summary:
The diaries of Muhammed Ali Effendi Sa'udi, a civil servant and accomplished photographer, offer a rare glimpse of the Hajj through Egyptian eyes at the beginning of the twentieth century when the Ottoman Empire was on the wane and the advance of the Hijaz railway threatened to upset vested interests in the old pattern of pilgrimage. Sa'udi twice accompanied the Amir al-Hajj, Ibrahim Rif'at Pasha, attached to the official Egyptian caravan. His story of these journeys combines the thoughts of a devout Muslim with fine detail on the hardships and health hazards facing pilgrims, the high-level intrigues, and the ever-present dangers of taking photographs. The authors have compressed the diaries into a readable narrative with selected quotations, illustrated with Sa'udi's photographs.
