‎Encounters on the Holy Mountain: Stories from Mount Athos‎

‎, Brepols, 2020 Hardback, 304 pages, Size:300 x 240 mm, Illustrations:25 b/w, 130 col., 1 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503589114.‎


‎Summary Mount Athos, the home of Orthodox spirituality and monasticism, has been in existence for at least 1200 years. Home to over 2,000 monks, in twenty glorious monasteries filled with treasures, the peninsula is undergoing a transformation and renewal of faith. In 1956 there was a proposal to build hotels on Mount Athos. Today it hosts up to 1,000 pilgrims every day! Why? This book will help explain this extraordinary place, the current resurgence, the growing population of monks, the sense of purpose, the love and affection that are so much part of the environment. This wonderful story, with a preface by HRH Prince Charles, Prince of Wales, is told through the recollections of the Friends of Mount Athos, an organisation that has, for thirty years, provided support for the institutions, landscape and people. Here are the stories of enchantment from over forty people of different nationalities, customs and beliefs. In addition to the text, there are a collection of special photographs and a map.

‎Edouard Vaillant. La création de l'unité socialiste en France. La politique de l'action totale.‎

‎ Edi/Syros, 1982, in-8°, 378 pp, préface de Madeleine Rebérioux, 8 pl. de photos hors texte, biblio, index, broché, couv. lég. salie, bon état‎


‎"Il est au fond superflu de présenter Edouard Vaillant à ceux qui s'intéressent à l'histoire du mouvement ouvrier français et international. Le nom de Vaillant peut évoquer toute une série d'événements aux spécialistes : le mouvement ouvrier international des années 1860, la Commune de Paris, Blanqui ou la IIe Internationale, et évidemment les luttes du mouvement ouvrier français menées par presque deux générations. Selon Howorth, Vaillant était le n° 2, après Jaurès, dans le mouvement ouvrier français (...) Un des traits essentiels et de fond dans la manière de voir de Howorth est de présenter la grande compréhension de Vaillant manifestée non seulement face à l'unité du mouvement ouvrier, mais aussi face à sa diversité. Aussi, il pouvait accorder son appui à la fois aux organisations politiques, aux organisations culturelles, aux syndicats, et attribuer, dès le début, dans les années 1880, une grande importance aux bourses, ce qui révèle la reconnaissance de « l'autogestion »..." (János Jemnitz, Acta Historica Academiae Scientiarum Hungaricae, 1986) — "Edouard Vaillant joua le rôle de trait d'union entre Jaurès et Guesde, entre CGT et SFIO, clé de voûte du mouvement socialiste français du début du siècle. Il symbolise la synthèse du marxisme théorique et du républicanisme pratique, dans le grand élan révolutionnaire et populaire de la « Belle Epoque». La création de l'unité socialiste en France éclaire les origines et l'essence du socialisme d'aujourd'hui. L'ouvrage rappelle le blanquisme, le marxisme, la république et la révolution, la classe ouvrière et le syndicalisme." (Lectures n° 14, juillet-août 1983) ‎
