Lrsquo;ouvrage reacute;unit des contributions consacreacute;es agrave; lrsquo;engagement de ceux qui formegrave;rent les Brigades Internationales et servirent la Reacute;publique espagnole depuis lrsquo;automne 1936 en participant agrave; la deacute;fense de Madrid jusqursquo;agrave; novembre 1938; peu avant la chute de Barcelone. Un regard sur lrsquo;engagement devait ecirc;tre drsquo;abord une eacute;coute et aussi une capaciteacute; agrave; approcher diffeacute;rentes facettes trop souvent oublieacute;es; agrave; appreacute;hender drsquo;une autre maniegrave;re les paroles et les actions de ces volontaires geacute;neacute;reux : crsquo;est pour satisfaire ces multiples objectifs que le colloque srsquo;est focaliseacute; sur lrsquo;Eacute;criture; lrsquo;Art et la Meacute;moire agrave; travers lrsquo;engagement de tous ces volontaires. Lrsquo;Eacute;criture engageacute;e regroupe les textes drsquo;intellectuels engageacute;s : la philosophe Simone Weil; lrsquo;eacute;crivain Michel Leiris ou drsquo;autres peu connus tels ces intellectuels cubains qui se sont porteacute;s volontaires. Le deacute;bat politique de lrsquo;eacute;poque qui est rappeleacute; ici ne doit pas ecirc;tre vu de faccedil;on anachronique mais lrsquo;on est pourtant frappeacute; par sa moderniteacute; puisque la figure de lrsquo;intellectuel engageacute; est acirc;prement deacute;battue; controverseacute;e. Lrsquo;Art engageacute; preacute;sente drsquo;autres expressions en un aller-retour drsquo;oeuvres drsquo;eacute;poque et de creacute;ations actuelles ou reacute;centes. Double regard et interpreacute;tations diversifieacute;es sur cette eacute;poque. La Parole engageacute;e est accessible par diffeacute;rentes voies : graphiques; cineacute;matographiques ou teacute;moignages. Elle offre une autre vision du passeacute; et participe agrave; la construction et agrave; la preacute;sence vivante des Meacute;moires engageacute;es.

A Treasure Trove of TV History: A "must have" on your book shelf or coffee table !By I_Love_AmericaYou can never go wrong with any of these popularly priced Arcadia Publishing "Images of America" books. This is a "must have" for the TV history aficionado. Growing up in Philadelphia and having lived there for over 50 years. this book is a valuable keepsake of my years in front of the old GE and later Zenith tube sets. In an interview. Bill Shull admits decisions were made due the voluminous nature of Philadelphia TV history. Frankly. I in my personal view there is an unbalance in coverage of the various personalities but I feel each reader would have tuned the book differently based on their viewing experience and personal preferences. My only suggestion is for perhaps a volume two; it is a great book and deserves a sequel. Another Philadelphia Arcadia images book (Philadelphia Radio by Alan Boris) is equally a treasure and highly recommended. Printed in the U.S.A on American made paper !If you grew up in Philadelphia consider it a school yearbook of sorts (covering decades) for your reference and reminiscing. If you lived outside the Philadelphia market. please consider it an education on one of the prime epicenters of television development. I was lucky to live this book and now luckier to have this great remembrance on my book shelf. Of note: Doctor Shock (page 116) visited my college in 1970 was a very kind man. He personally autographed a 8" by 10" photo to being to an injured friend in the hospital. A great man who sadly died too young; most of these personalities were just plain good. kindly people. Amazingly. I never knew Brian Williams worked at WCAU (Channel 10). see page 88. until I read this book ! Apparently (allegedly) he covered New Jersey for the station. Write your own joke here...and then order the book.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Focus on TechnologyBy Silver CPDI purchased this as a gift for my mother. who told me how disappointed she was that the book did not include more information on Philadelphias pioneering television personalities. It dwelt more on the engineering and physical plant side of Philadelphia TV. For those interested in early television technology. this would be an interesting read.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. 5 star book about phila tv legends like jjohn facenda mark garnder bill cambell hall lengends of Phila TvBy Michael LartheyONE OF THE BEST IMAGES OF AMERCIA BOOKS IVE SEEN
