Résumé:

As a reader on avian kinship, "With a Bird," delves into the profound ways birds have inspired human understanding of life, blending scientific inquiry with spiritual reflection. Visual art, natural history, sociology, literature and more combine to explore how birds challenge and transcend boundaries—between human and non-human life, dream and reality, life and death, science and folklore and the domains of land, water and sky. Each chapter in this petite, canary-yellow paperback is dedicated to the symbolic roles birds play in human life, from death to dreams to freedom to fortune-telling.

Résumé:
Quelles relations les images entretiennent-elles entre elles si on les décorrèle de leur rapport à l'être humain? Que se passe-t-il dans l'autre côté non accessible des images ? Les images peuvent-elles nous donner un aperçu sur l'autre côté de notre perception ? Telles sont les questions inattendues auxquelles ce livre se confronte. Inattendues, car l'esthétique et l'iconologie font généralement, si ce n'est exclusivement, usage d'un discours orienté en direction de l'être humain, mieux : déterminé par lui, par ses représentations, par son expérience possible. S'il n'est évidemment pas question de soutenir que l'on pourrait parler depuis l'extériorité de notre appartenance d'espèce (que l'on ne confondra pas avec notre subjectivité), la thèse ici défendue est que quelque chose de l'in-humanité des images peut malgré tout parvenir jusqu'à nous. L'interrogation devient alors : à quelles conditions de tels phénomènes sont-ils possibles ? Pour l'éclaircir, cet essai a recours à la phénoménologie, à l'histoire de l'art, à la littérature, à l'écologie, mais avant tout au cinéma, à sa théorie comme à l'analyse de plusieurs films. Le cinéma s'y impose comme le lieu d'origine spéculatif de l'éconologie, qui bascule brusquement notre manière de penser les images. Et il s'y impose sur fond de toutes sortes de trous.

Résumé:
Fifty years after the Fall of Saigon and twenty years after her family’s emigration to America, Minh Nguyen returns to her native Vietnam to find out what’s left of the old revolutionary project. In Memorial Park, a collection of essays pairing travelogue and criticism, Nguyen encounters relics of proletarian romance and vestiges of authoritarian control amid an evermore corporatized society. Along the way, she considers how contemporary artspeak confuses state censors, the rise of luxury "Smart Cities" as they supplant socialist housing complexes, and the enduring appeal of propaganda signs that once promised utopia. Driven by a diasporic curiosity that seeks discovery over dwelling on loss, "Memorial Park" avoids nostalgic idealism or reflexive condemnation. Instead, Nguyen takes seriously the legacy of Vietnamese liberation by naming what it has become—and what it has not.

''Medium Hot'' is the essential handbook for our present conjuncture, exploring the limits of art and technology.

In an era of supercharged change, she examines the way machine learning infiltrates every aspect of our lives and what that means for the future.

This simple four-letter word signifies much more than a quasi-neutral color lying between black and white: we use the same word to describe moods, November skies, the hair of the elderly, the withered features of faces, dusty shelves, faceless bureaucracies, dreary politicians and hundreds of other things. This plain, unassuming word conceals a multitude of thoughts that we seldom pause to consider. In this exceptionally original book, Peter Sloterdijk follows the grey thread through the history of philosophy, art, literature and politics, enabling us to see familiar things in new ways and highlighting features of our lives that would otherwise remain unseen.

The distant past is commonly characterized in terms of dominant materials of the time – the Stone Age, the Bronze Age, the Iron Age, etc. Since the dawn of writing, however, characterizing eras in terms of materials has fallen by the wayside, and yet materials have continued to exert a powerful influence on our collective imagination. Viewed from this perspective, France in the period from 1815 to 1855 could be seen as the half-century of plaster. After the French Revolution, plaster was used for a great variety of things: building, moulding, sculpting, decorating. Cheap and easy to use, plaster was everywhere, from Napoleon’s death mask to household ornaments, from walls to elaborate mouldings. Plaster was king – but a fragile king that easily crumbled and fell apart. The age of plaster was also the reign of the ephemeral and the transient, the vulgar and the eclectic, and the men and women of the time struggled to maintain stability and continuity with the past.

In these five jewel-like essays, Yourcenar meditates on the decay of time, the desire both satiated and refused by art, and the imagery animating the lives, works, and dreams of Michelangelo, Dürer, and Piranesi. And in an intimate mediation on the historical novel, Yourcenar describes her own encounters with how language and sound reveal the past. Together these exquisite essays explore that fundamental awe—perhaps even the terror—at the heart of an encounter with beauty.

Contributors to the volume explore topics including how Latinx Canadian identity is constructed, negotiated, and expressed, as well as the networks and solidarities that shape Latinx Canadian experiences. These connections include intergenerational mentorships, cross-cultural alliances, and collaborations with Indigenous and other marginalized communities within racialized and gendered frameworks.
