Story0
Impassioned, insightful, electric, Manorism is a poetic examination of the lives of Black British men and boys: propped up and hemmed in by contemporary masculinity, deepened by family, misrepresented in the media, and complicated by the riches, and the costs, of belonging and inheritance. It is also an exploration of the differences of impunity afforded to white and Black people, and to white and Black artists.

Story0
As a child, Julie Sedivy left Czechoslovakia for Canada, and English soon took over her life. By early adulthood she spoke Czech rarely and badly, and when her father died unexpectedly, she lost not only a beloved parent but also her firmest point of connection to her native language. Memory Speaks combines a rich body of psychological research with a moving story at once personal and universally resonant. As citizens debate the merits of bilingual education, as the world's less dominant languages are driven to extinction, this is badly needed wisdom.

On New Year's Eve, an elderly ticket porter, Toby "Trotty" Veck, a hardworking but poor man, is disillusioned with the state of the world. He is appalled by newspaper reports of crime and immorality, and fears for the future prospects of his daughter, Meg, who is to be married on New Year's Day. Trotty has always fancied that the bell chimes of the nearby church offer him encouragement when he is most in need. On this particular night, he is drawn to the church tower, where he is greeted by the spirits of the bells and their goblin attendants who show him a vision of the future.

En 2021, le site Ethnologue, le Centre de recherche sur l'intelligence linguistique, estimait à plus de 7000 le nombre de langues parlées dans le monde, auxquelles s'ajoutent des milliers de dialectes. La raison d'être fondamentale et l'origine exacte de cette ingénieuse invention demeurent sujet de controverse parmi les spécialistes. Par ailleurs, tous s'accordent sur le fait que les langues parlées s'accommodent d'adaptation, de nuances, d'emprunts et de transformations astucieuses, étonnantes, voire amusantes.

American author, scholar, and satirist H.L. Mencken wrote The American Language in 1919, intending to defend American speech from prescriptivist critics. "America itself is unutterably vulgar. But vulgarity, after all, means no more than a yielding to natural impulses in the face of conventional inhibitions, and that yielding to natural impulses is at the heart of all healthy language-making."

This compact but powerful book argues for the primacy of language - of the words we speak - as a force for creating the lives we want to lead. There are ways of speaking that will produce action and change, and there are ways of speaking that don’t. This book explores that distinction. For anyone who is wanting to lead a more intentional, focused, and powerful life, Change Your World One Word at a Time is both inspirational and practical.

Ils ont beau être quelque 300 millions de locuteurs français dans le monde, il arrive qu'à cause des nombreuses dissemblances dont la langue française est truffée, Français (de France), Québécois, Belges, Suisses, Haïtiens, Maliens, Zaïrzois, et beaucoup d'autres qui ont le français en partage, ne se comprennent pas toujours. Cette diversité de langues, dans la langue crée nécessairement des quiproquos, des confusions et des malentendus qui peuvent parfois être fâcheux.

Vera; or, The Nihilists is Oscar Wilde’s first play. It features Russian revolutionaries who seek to assassinate a reform-minded Emperor, and is loosely based on the life of Vera Zasulich who shot the Governor of St. Petersburg in 1878. Contemporary events in Russia, as published in the British press of the time, clearly influenced the plot and characters. The first public performance of Vera; or, The Nihilists was in New York City in 1883. The play was a failure and folded after one week. It remains fascinating as part of a study into the development of Wilde's work.

In the 1970s, the behavioral psychologist Herbert S. Terrace led a remarkable experiment to see if a chimpanzee could be taught to use language. A young ape, named “Nim Chimpsky” in a nod to the linguist whose theories Terrace challenged, was raised by a family in New York and instructed in American Sign Language. Initially, Terrace thought that Nim could create sentences but later discovered that Nim’s teachers inadvertently cued his signing. Terrace concluded that Project Nim failed - not because Nim couldn’t create sentences but because he couldn’t even learn words.
