"La vie vous présente des options-chances qu'il faut saisir. Ici, cinq d'un coup: hôtellerie ou tourisme ou transport ou navigation ou restauration maritime, ces derniers devenus tickets restaurant et ravitaillement de plates-formes pétrolières, croisières, entreprises, trains, hôpitaux, avions, cantines... Les voies du seigneur sont impénétrables mais, dans les miennes, je ne sais pas comment je me débrouille, il y a toujours des impondérables... En général, une alternative, pas deux, souvent violente. Selon mes expressions, c'est blanc ou noir, oui ou non, vrai ou faux, une ou deux seconde(s), sans appel. [...] J'aurai toute ma vie tellement souhaité plus d'alternatives, d'options, de solutions diverses, douces, raisonnables et raisonnées. Mais ou je ne les ai pas eues ou, plutôt peut-être, pas réussi à les trouver ou su prendre le temps de les mettre en oeuvre." Soixante-quinze ans: le temps de grandir et de fonder une famille; le temps de gagner, de perdre et de reconstruire. Soixante-quinze ans et pourtant, ce ne sont ni la lassitude ni la mélancolie qui imprègnent ces lignes. Au contraire, le ton se veut toujours alerte, jeune, vif, parfois mordant et incisif, frondeur et léger. Aussi, comme le sous-entend son titre, ce texte ne tient-il ni du bilan crépusculaire ni du testament littéraire... Il capte plutôt l'effervescence de plus de sept décennies vécues comme dans un tourbillon par un auteur qui a certainement l'intention de poursuivre, longtemps, cette folle expérience qu'est la vie.

Any listener knows the power of music to define a place, but few can describe the how or why of this phenomenon. In Lonesome Roads and Streets of Dreams: Place, Mobility, and Race in Jazz of the 1930s and ’40s, Andrew Berish attempts to right this wrong, showcasing how American jazz defined a culture particularly preoccupied with place. By analyzing both the performances and cultural context of leading jazz figures, including the many famous venues where they played, Berish bridges two dominant scholarly approaches to the genre, offering not only a new reading of swing era jazz but an entirely new framework for musical analysis in general, one that examines how the geographical realities of daily life can be transformed into musical sound. Focusing on white bandleader Jan Garber, black bandleader Duke Ellington, white saxophonist Charlie Barnet, and black guitarist Charlie Christian, as well as traveling from Catalina Island to Manhattan to Oklahoma City, Lonesome Roads and Streets of Dreams depicts not only a geography of race but how this geography was disrupted, how these musicians crossed physical and racial boundaries—from black to white, South to North, and rural to urban—and how they found expression for these movements in the insistent music they were creating.

A new provocative love story from the New York Times bestselling author of All the Ugly and Wonderful Things. “The story of Zee and Gentry is the reason we read.” —Brunonia Barry Their journey will break them—or save them. A moving and complicated love story for our time, The Reckless Oath We Made redefines what it means to be heroic. Zee has never admitted to needing anybody. But she needs Gentry. Her tough exterior shelters a heart that’s loyal to the point of self-destruction, while autistic Gentry wears his heart on his sleeve, including his desire to protect Zee at all costs. When an abduction tears Zee’s family apart, she turns to Gentry—and sets in motion a journey and a love that will change their lives forever. “[A] mind-blowing book that has left me scrambling to pick up the pieces of my brain and my shattered heart . . . Prepare to have your mind and heart expanded to their limits.” —The Oklahoman

This “generous, vigorous, and enlightening look at class and space in New York” examines the human side of gentrification—“a joy to read” (The Paris Review).For years, journalists, policymakers, critics, and historians have tried to explain just what happens when new money and new residents flow into established neighborhoods. But now, “Mr. Gibson lets the city speak for itself, and it speaks with charm, swagger and heartening resilience” (The New York Times). The Edge Becomes the Center captures, in their own words, the stories of people?brokers, buyers, sellers, renters, landlords, artists, contractors, politicians, and everyone in between?who are shaping and being shaped by the new New York City. In this extraordinary oral history, Gibson shows us what urban change looks and feels like by exposing us to the voices of the people living through it. Drawing on the plainspoken, casually authoritative tradition of Jane Jacobs and Studs Terkel, The Edge Becomes the Center is an inviting and essential portrait of the way we live now.

De Louise-Marie à Mathilde, depuis 180 ans, sept femmes ont régné aux côtés des rois des Belges. Chacune a appréhendé son rôle de manière très différente. En fonction de l’époque, la place laissée à la reine fut plus ou moins grande. Si Louise-Marie et Marie-Henriette ont été choisies pour des raisons purement politiques, le moderne roi Albert Ier accorda à son épouse Élisabeth une réelle visibilité et de réelles attributions. Star des magazines de son vivant, la reine Astrid, elle, devint un mythe après sa mort accidentelle au détour d’une route de Suisse. Présente pendant trente-trois ans auprès de son époux, le roi Baudouin, la reine Fabiola entretint sa mémoire jusqu’au bout. Quant à Paola, devenue reine en 1993, elle a beaucoup oeuvré pour l’enfance en danger. Elle a aussi fait entrer l’art contemporain au palais royal. Reine depuis 2013, Mathilde forme une équipe solide avec le roi Philippe. Elle a quelque peu modernisé la fonction et lui offre le maximum de visibilité... en attendant l’évolution ultime du rôle : un jour sa fille Élisabeth montera sur le trône et deviendra la toute première reine régnante de l’histoire de Belgique ! Journaliste depuis 1998, Pierre De Vuyst est spécialisé dans la couverture des événements royaux depuis les fiançailles de Philippe et Mathilde en septembre 1999. Il travaille au Soir Mag depuis 2004.

As media environments and communication practices evolve over time, so do theoretical concepts. This book analyzes some of the most well-known and fiercely discussed concepts of the digital age from a historical perspective, showing how many of them have pre-digital roots and how they have changed and still are constantly changing in the digital era. Written by leading authors in media and communication studies, the chapters historicize 16 concepts that have become central in the digital media literature, focusing on three main areas. The first part, Technologies and Connections, historicises concepts like network, media convergence, multimedia, interactivity and artificial intelligence. The second one is related to Agency and Politics and explores global governance, datafication, fake news, echo chambers, digital media activism. The last one, Users and Practices, is finally devoted to telepresence, digital loneliness, amateurism, user generated content, fandom and authenticity. The book aims to shed light on how concepts emerge and are co-shaped, circulated, used and reappropriated in different contexts. It argues for the need for a conceptual media and communication history that will reveal new developments without concealing continuities and it demonstrates how the analogue/digital dichotomy is often a misleading one.
