'L'Istoire de la Chastelaine du Vergier et de Tristan le Chevalier', composee en prose au XVeme siecle et conservee dans un unique manuscrit, est un remaniement anonyme de 'La Chastelaine de Vergi', ce court poeme du XIIIeme siecle au succes incontestable. Cette version en prose narre, tout comme son modele en vers, les amours malheureuses d'un couple d'amants. Cependant, si l'Istoire de la 'Chastelaine du Vergier et de Tristan le Chevalier' parait, de prime abord, suivre d'une facon presque fidele son modele, il faut admettre qu'il existe un certain nombre de variations passant d'une version a l'autre. En effet, la version en prose ajoute des developpements absents dans celle en vers, amplifie la portee morale de son texte, propose un changement manifeste de la conception de l'amour, modifie le caractere de la duchesse, emploie un vocabulaire bien specifique dans certaines occasions, etc. Ainsi, l''Istoire de la Chastelaine du Vergier et de Tristan le Chevalier', bien qu'offrant une organisation sequentielle assez peu differente de celle de 'La Chastelaine de Vergi', sait se detacher de son modele en proposant une adaptation ainsi qu'une version toute personnelle du celebre poeme du XIIIeme siecle. Jean-Francois Kosta-Thefaine, docteur en litterature medievale, est chercheur associe au Centre d'Etudes des Textes Medievaux - Universite de Rennes 2.

“Like man, woman is a human being.” When The Second Sex was first published in Paris in 1949—groundbreaking, risqué, brilliantly written and strikingly modern—it provoked both outrage and inspiration. The Independent Woman contains three key chapters of Beauvoir’s masterwork, which illuminate the feminine condition and identify practical social reforms for gender equality. It captures the essence of the spirited manifesto that switched on light bulbs in the heads of a generation of women and continues to exert profound influence on feminists today.
The Annals of St-Bertin, covering the years 830 to 882, are the main narrative source for the Carolingian world in the ninth century. This richly-annotated translation by a leading British specialist makes these Carolingian histories accessible in English for the first time, encouraging readers to reassess and evaluate a crucially formative period of European history. Produced in the 830s in the imperial palace of Louis the Pious, The Annals of St-Bertin were continued away from the Court, first by Bishop Prudentius of Troyes, then by the great scholar-politician Archbishop Hinemar of Rheims. The authors' distinctive voices and interests give the work a personal tone rarely found in medieval annals. They also contain uniquely detailed information on Carolingian politics, especially the reign of the West Frankish king, Charles the Bald (840-877). No other source offers so much evidence on the Continental activities of the Vikings. Janet L. Nelson offers in this volume both an entrée to a crucial Carolingian source and an introduction to the historical setting of teh Annals and possible ways of reading the evidence. The Annals of St-Bertin will be valuable reading for academics, research students and undergraduates in medieval history, archaeology and medieval languages. It will also fascinate any general reader with an interest in the development of European culture and society.
