        John et Yoni

        by Mike Carmel

        John et Yoni - Deux frères jumeaux - deux religions - deux nations - une seule âme !Mike Carmel A la suite d'une relation illicite passionnée entre une jeune étudiante en psychologie et son professeur marié, en 1979, deux frères jumeaux, John et Yoni, sont involontairement séparés lors du premier mois de leur vie et sont élevés dans deux différentes familles adoptives. John grandit en Angleterre à Liverpool, dans la foi romaine catholique. Yoni est élevé à Raanana, en Israël, dans la confession juive.A l'âge de 21 ans, ils se rencontrent pour la première fois. Ils sont tous deux très croyants, chacun dans ses propres convictions religieuses, et il s'ensuit un processus intéressant de découverte mutuelle, alors que leurs voies culturelles différentes se rencontrent. Ce qui suit est une histoire captivante, stimulante, amusante, qui soulève des questions et occasionnellement des conflits, et souvent débouche sur le bizarre. Alors, l'un d'eux perd tragiquement la vie, victime d'un attentat suicidaire à la bombe, et son frère jumeau reste, pour endurer le difficile processus de remise en question de sa propre identité, se retrouvant de nouveau seul au monde. Mike Carmel est né en 1956 à Liverpool et étudia l'économie à la Liverpool University et à la Brunel University, à Londres. Bien que l'auteur fût élevé dans la foi anglicane, il décida, en 1980, de se convertir au judaïsme. Il conserva désormais un profond respect pour les deux religions.Travaillant dans le secteur de la Hi Tech, Mike vit en Israël depuis 25 ans. Il a servi dans l'armée israélienne comme infirmier et il a aussi rempli diverses fonctions dans l'éducation dans les deux pays. Mike s'est marié avec une israélienne en 1981 et ils ont trois enfants. Sa fille, à laquelle le livre est dédié, a été gravement blessée pendant son service militaire par un terroriste suicidaire en 2003.

        Transitional justice in process

        Plans and politics in Tunisia

        by Mariam Salehi

        After the fall of the Ben Ali regime in 2011, Tunisia swiftly began dealing with its authoritarian past and initiated a comprehensive transitional justice process, with the Truth and Dignity Commission as its central institution. However, instead of bringing about peace and justice, transitional justice soon became an arena of contention. Through a process lens, the book explores why and how the process evolved, and explains how it relates to the country's political transition. Based on extensive field research in Tunisia and the US, and interviews with a broad range of international stakeholders and decision-makers, this is the first book to comprehensively study the Tunisian transitional justice process. It provides an in-depth analysis of a crucial period, examining the role of justice professionals in different stages, as well as the alliances and frictions between different actor groups that cut across the often-assumed local-international divide.

        From Perversion to Purity

        The stardom of Catherine Deneuve

        by Lisa Downing, Sue Harris

        Catherine Deneuve is indisputably one of the world's most celebrated actresses, both in her native France and throughout the world. Her career has spanned five decades during which she has worked with the most significant of French auteurs, as well as forging partnerships with international directors such as Bunuel and Polanski. The Deneuve star persona has attained such iconic status that it can now symbolise the very essence of French womanhood and civic identity. In this wide-ranging and authoritative collection of essays by a selection of international film academics and writers, the Deneuve persona is scrutinised and illuminated. Beyond the glamorous iconographic status of Yves Saint Laurent's muse, and the epitome of sexual inviolability, Deneuve's status as actress is foregrounded. The book will be essential reading for students and lecturers in star studies.

        Bertrand Blier

        by Sue Harris

        The most complete study of Blier's work to date, Harris traces the director's career from the early 1960s until the present. Outlines the forms, themes and style which dominate in Blier's work, and challenges the many labels that have been used to describe both the corpus of films and the man himself. Provides an original and controversial discussion of Blier's alleged 'misogyny', and invites the reader to understand the scatological and corporeal aspects of Blier's filmmaking in terms of long-established traditions of popular dramatic culture. Brings to light the comic mechanisms underpinning Blier's films and identifies strategies which navigate through one of the most entertaining and disconcerting bodies of work of recent years. The first book on Blier published in English.
