Les courtisanes existent depuis toujours. Voici l'histoire des plus extravagantes d'entre elles. Demi-Castors, Cocottes, Membres de la Garde ou de la Haute- Bicherie, Demi-Mondaines, Grandes horizontales, Lionnes, Lorettes... les courtisanes sont des prostituées de luxe, les plus belles femmes de leur temps, douées de talents multiples, érotiques ou artistiques, mis au service d’hommes fortunés qu’elles s’évertuent à ruiner en se faisant offrir des rivières de diamants et des hôtels particuliers. Certaines d’entre elles se distinguent par leur goût pour la littérature, comme Yo Xianji, prostituée et poétesse. D’autres se rêvent espionnes au service de leur patrie, comme la Castiglione ou les filles délurées de « l’escadron volant ». La plupart sont les muses et les modèles de grands artistes : Méry Laurent est l’un des modèles préférés de Manet, mais également l’inspiratrice du personnage de Nana chez Émile Zola et d’Odette de Crécy dans À la Recherche du temps perdu. Voici l’histoire des plus extravagantes d’entre elles. De Messaline, « l’impératrice des putains », à la Dame aux camélias, de Ninon de Lenclos à Lola Montès, toutes eurent en commun d’adopter la devise de la Belle Otéro : « La fortune ne vient pas en dormant... seule ». Plongez-vous dans l'histoire de ces courtisanes qui ont touché le pouvoir et découvrez qui elles étaient vraiment. EXTRAIT Le métier de courtisane n’est pas sans danger. À force de susciter des confidences sur l’oreiller, il peut devenir tentant d’en faire commerce, une tentation à laquelle la Castiglione semble bien avoir cédé. Virginia Elisabetta Luisa Carlotta Antonietta Teresa Maria Oldoini, Contessa di Castiglione, est née à Florence le 22 mars 1837, dans une famille de l’aristocratie piémontaise. Son père, le marquis Filippo Oldoini Rapallini, député au parlement du royaume de Sardaigne avant d’être ambassadeur à Lisbonne, lui fait donner l’éducation qui convient à son rang. La jeune fille apprend, très jeune, la musique, la danse ainsi que le français et l’anglais, qu’elle parle avec un accent délicieux. Mais ce qui frappe chez elle est sa beauté, on la surnomme « La Perla d’Italia ». Ce qui attire évidemment un grand nombre de soupirants. L’heureux élu, le comte Francesco Verasis de Castiglione, l’épouse alors qu’elle n’a que 17 ans. Le couple bat rapidement de l’aile, quand le mari l’abandonne régulièrement pour se mettre au service du roi. Virginia prend un amant, Ambrosio Doria, puis, lorsqu’elle s’en lasse, un second, Marcello Doria, frère cadet du précédent. Mais elle noue surtout en secret une intrigue sentimentale avec le roi de Sardaigne, Victor Emmanuel II, dont elle devient la maîtresse et l’espionne. A PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Marc Lemonier est journaliste et auteur d’une soixantaine de livres consacrés à l’Histoire de la ville de Paris, au langage populaire, au cinéma des années 50 et 60 et à l’Histoire de l’érotisme. Dans ce dernier domaine, il a publié Secrets de maisons closes, Guide du Paris Libertin et Liberté Égalité Sexualité – révolution sexuelle en France, aux Éditions La Musardine, ainsi que Histoires de seins, aux Éditions Jourdan.

This is a painfully drawn portrayal of private life, but its wider subject-matter also makes it a fictional document of post-revolutionary France. Many people (among them Henry James) have considered Balzac to be the greatest of all novelists. Eugenie Grandet, his spare, classical story of a girl whose life is blighted by her father's hysterical greed, goes a long way to justifying that opinion. One of the most magnificent of his tales of early nineteenth-century French provincial life, this novel is the work of a writer on whom nothing was lost, and who represents most fully the ability of the human animal to understand and illuminate its own condition. Translated By Ellen Marriage With An Introduction By Fredric R. Jameson Fredric R. Jameson is William A. Lane, Jr. Professor of Comparative Literature at Duke University in North Carolina. His publications include Sartre: The Origins of a Style, Signatures of the Visible, and Post-modernism, or, The Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism, with Aesthetics of the Geopolitical forthcoming.

De nos jours, dans la plupart des pays du monde, la prostitution est majoritairement perçue de façon négative. Il fut un temps, cependant, où cette activité que l'on nomme le plus vieux métier du monde était considérée par certaines civilisations comme une pratique vertueuse... Sans parti-pris ni militantisme, cette bande dessinée esquisse les évolutions historiques qui permettent de mieux comprendre la situation contemporaine des prostitué(e)s.

Women Artists in Interwar France: Framing Femininities illuminates the importance of the Soci? des Femmes Artists Modernes, more commonly known as FAM, and returns this group to its proper place in the history of modern art. In particular, this volume explores how FAM and its most famous members?Suzanne Valadon, Marie Laurencin, and Tamara de Lempicka?brought a new approach to the most prominent themes of female embodiment: the self-portrait, motherhood, and the female nude. These women reimagined art's conventions and changed the direction of both art history and the politics of their contemporary art world. FAM has been excluded from histories of modern art despite its prominence during the interwar years. Paula Birnbaum's study redresses this omission, contextualizing the group's legacy in light of the conservative politics of 1930s France. The group's artistic response to the reactionary views and images of women at the time is shown to be a key element in the narrative of modernist formalism. Although many FAM works are missing?one reason for the lack of attention paid to their efforts?Birnbaum's extensive research, through archives, press clippings, and first-hand interviews with artists' families, reclaims FAM as an important chapter in the history of art from the interwar years.
