Résumé:
This book is an historical investigation of mourning sites and practices within the context of the province of British Columbia. The authors are concerned, primarily, with the rise of the roadside death memorial in the late twentieth century. They argue that RDMs are not a marginal, quirky phenomenon but part of a longer and complex story about the meaning of both death and grieving, one more thread in a long tapestry of public exhibitions of grief that serve to announce to the watching world who we are.

Résumé:
The heem parks (parks that predominately feature native wild plants) De Braak, the K. Landwehrpark and, especially, the Jac.P. Thijsse Park in Amstelveen in the Netherlands, have been important sources of inspiration for landscape architects, gardeners, and nature lovers throughout the world since they were first laid out over fifty years ago. This new book looks at the extraordinary history of these parks and the work of the landscape architect Christiaan Broerse and his colleague, the botanist Koos Landwehr. It also details Broerse and Landwehr’s creative and highly original use of a great variety of native plants in these parks. Bekkers analyses the parks as integral elements of Amsterdam’s urban expansion plans and demonstrates how successfully Broerse and Landwehr resolved the tension between the conservation movement and city planners. He shows too how interest in the Amstelveen heem parks have grown over time. These parks have played a key role, for instance, in the increasing emphasis on the use of native plants in the layout of green areas. The book is richly illustrated, with specially commissioned full-colour photographs by Jan Derwig and aerial photographs by Jan Schot. Also included are historical illustrations and sketches.

Résumé:
Alors que l’affaire Dreyfus bat son plein, César Ritz est sur le point d’ouvrir les portes de son nouveau palace parisien, dont les cuisines ont été confiées au grand chef Auguste Escoffier. Quel n’est donc pas le choc ressenti lorsque, à quelques jours de l’inauguration, le cadavre d’une jeune femme est retrouvé pendu dans une chambre froide du Ritz. Pour ne pas ébruiter l’affaire, l’enquête est confiée au filleul d’Auguste Escoffier, Quentin Savoisy, jeune journaliste gastronomique au Pot-au-Feu. Epaulé par sa fiancée aristocrate et féministe de la première heure, Quentin est loin d’imaginer qui se cache derrière ce terrible meurtre. Michèle Barrière, la reine du polar «historico-gastronomique», signe ici une intrigue captivante de la saga Savoisy, où la grande Histoire se mêle avec brio aux mets les plus fins de l’hôtellerie de luxe.
