        Reframing difference

        Beur and banlieue filmmaking in France

        by Carrie Tarr

        Reframing difference is the first major study of two overlapping strands of contemporary French cinema, cinema beur (films by young directors of Maghrebi immigrant origin) and cinema de banlieue (films set in France's disadvantaged outer-city estates). Carrie Tarr's insightful account draws on a wide range of films, from directors such as Mehdi Charef, Mathieu Kassovitz and Djamel Bensalah. Her analyses compare the work of male and female, majority and minority film-makers, and emphasise the significance of authorship in the representation of gender and ethnicity. Foregrounding such issues as the quest for identity, the negotiation of space and the recourse to memory and history, she argues that these films challenge and reframe the symbolic spaces of French culture, addressing issues of ethnicity and difference which are central to today's debates about what it means to be French. This timely book is essential reading for anyone interested in the relationship between cinema and citizenship in a multicultural society.

        by Wolf-Rainer Abraham, Maria do Carmo de Freire Bastos, Nicoletta Belletti, Patrick J Cullen, Isabel M P L V O Ferreira, Mendel Friedman, Antonio Gálvez, Pilar García Suárez, Gustavo Gonzàlez, Riadh Hammami, El Akrem Hayouni, Vijay K Juneja, Khaoula Khwaldia, Ching-Hsing Liao, Marta Mari, Faid Mohamed, Caterina Morcia, Victor O Oyetayo, Mehdi Razzaghi-Abyaneh, Claudia Ruiz-Capillas, Yuanxia Sun, Ljubisa Topisirovic. Edited by Mahendra Rai, Michael Chikindas.

        The demands of producing high quality, pathogen-free food rely increasingly on natural sources of antimicrobials to inhibit food spoilage organisms, foodborne pathogens and toxins. Discovery and development of new antimicrobials from natural sources for a wide range of applications requires that knowledge of traditional sources for food antimicrobials is combined with the latest technologies in identification, characterization and application. This book explores some novel, natural sources of antimicrobials as well as the latest developments in using well-known antimicrobials in food. Covering antimicrobials derived from microbial sources (bacteriophages, bacteria, algae, fungi), animal-derived products (milk proteins, chitosan, reduction of biogenic amines), plants and plant-products (essential oils, phytochemicals, bioactive compounds), this book includes the development and use of natural antimicrobials for processed and fresh food products. New and emerging technologies concerning antimicrobials are also discussed.

The English were more advanced than others in piracy activities. Following the piracy of the Spanish vessels by the British, war erupted between the two countries, and the British were victorious. The French and the British then joined the Portuguese and fought against Spain. Next, the British invaded India. The focal theme of this book is the competition and conflicts of European countries for the unearthing of new lands, their plans for the expansion of colonies and the looting of property and mines of the people of other countries.

        by Muhammad Reza Sarshar

        The book contains three stories, titled The Gold Watch, The Prize and The Friends, that are narrated for late elementary and early guidance school children. The first story of the book (The Gold Watch) is the story of two friends called Saeed and Sadegh, who are best friends besides being classmates as well. One day, Sadegh goes to Saeed’s home to study and Saeed’s gold watch goes missing. From this moment on, Saeed suspects his friend and feels that he has stolen his watch. At the end of the story, it is revealed that the crow that has made a nest on the top a tree in their yard has stolen Saeed’s watch. The second story (The Prize), also the book’s namesake, is about a teenage boy trying to get the top scores in the sixth grade final exam hoping that his father would buy him a bike; but financial troubles do not allow his father to honor his promise and buy a bicycle for his son. At the end of the story, the boy finds out about his father’s situation and writes a letter to inform his father that he has given up the bicycle idea. The last story of the book (The Friends) tells the story of a teenager named Yunes, who emigrates with his family from Shiraz to Tabriz, where he is confronted with a strange and weird atmosphere while attending the school in that city and almost cannot cope with it. Yunes does not know the language of the Tabriz students who speak Turkish and this fact makes him seek friendship with another student named Mehdi, who is incidentally a Shiraz native and speaks Yunes’s language. Mehdi is an undisciplined student and encourages Younes to skip the school for a few days, but the school children bring Yunes back to the classroom and their friendship becomes deeper, and Yunes gets interested in the school and the new friends. The author, throughout the stories of this book, depicts the mental world of adolescents and educational spaces so skillfully that the reader finds himself right in the middle of the book’s adventures and thus, gets along with the characters and events of these stories.

        White Red

        by Mehdi Yazdani Khoram

        We are Figments of God's Imagination... A breath-taking and innovative novel about contemporary Iran and its revolution   WHITE RED is a narrative of people whose destinies become intertwined in January 1980 in the chaotic post-revolutionary Tehran. The main character of the novel, who’s the juncture of all incidents, is a thirty-three-year-old Kyokushin practitioner who should fight fifteen battles for the black belt: an average clerk of the statistics office with his ordinary life, his loneliness after being abandoned by his fiancé for no reason, and his interest in literature leading him to write a few corny romantic books ignored by everyone, and with his chronic disease, has now put all his effort into the fight for earning the black belt which is all he’s got now.   In each of these brief yet severe battles a particular clue directs the narration to a snowy day in 1980 Tehran. Every one of them opens the gate to bizarre happenings taking place in the context of actual historical events; happenings that both astonish and shock us. A mixture of reality and writer’s fantasy opens the door to the lives of people each disclosing a mysterious history: The secret life of Guita, an ambitious superstar in the pre-revolution cinema of Iran where her bold roles result in the anger of the extremists after the revolution; the fears and hardships of a Greek priest who’s in charge of returning the nuns to Europe after the revolution; an old Jew who intends to purify his blood even by going into a pool full of leeches; the internal battle of a religious old woman for adopting the bastard sons of two dead members of the Mujahedin; a poor balloon seller whose wishes are realized overnight due to people’s superstitious beliefs; and the last Iranian ambassador in Dublin who’s forced to hide the first Pahlavi king’s bones so that the revolutionaries won’t be able to lay a hand on them.

        Bloodsoacked

        by Mehdi Yazdani Khoram

        Bloodsoaked passes through unfamiliar spaces, taking its readers to the heart of Iran and the Middle East, where love and life and even death are influenced by war, religion, and, of course, a cursed history. By combining Christian aesthetics with Iranian political history and through references to the history of the Middle East in early 1980s, the author has created an atmosphere that could be attractive for both Western and Eastern audiences. Bloodsoaked is one of the most read novels in the past few months in Iran. The novel has rightly been regarded by Iranian critics as a "Modem Gothic". Mohsen Meftah, a graduate student at the University of Tehran, earns his life by following in his father's footstep and making up for the missed prayers and fasts on behalf of deceased Muslims. The story begins on an autumn day when Mohsen is scheduled to visit the graves of five brothers and perform their mother's vow. And so his life gets entangled with the story of the five brothers who grew up in an old neighborhood in Tehran, next to an Armenian Apostolic Church. With the onset of the Islamic Revolution, the lives of these brothers change forever in October 1981. Nasser, the eldest brother, goes to Isfahan with his beloved, Maryam, whose father was executed after the revolution. A Catholic collector has tempted her to excavate some sacred antiquities from a church in Isfahan in turn for a Vatican visa for herself and Nasser. But this excavation turns out to be completely different from what they have imagined. Massoud is a sniper in the Iran-Iraq War, who shoots from a church tower to prevent Iraqi forces from entering the city. He is a brave young man whose shocking destiny is tied up with the fate of the left women in a war-torn city. Mansour, the third brother, is a photographer who has taken photos from the executions and trials in Revolutionary Tribunals. Taking pictures of the execution of a notorious prostitute changes his life and drags him to Beirut. There he falls in love with a Maronite nun, Maria. But politics and religious fanaticism shape a different destiny for them. Mahmoud falls in love with a communist girl and follows her to Mashhad, so that they can flee to the Soviet Union together. And the fate of Tahir, their six-year-old brother, is tied to Tehran and St. Marry Church in their neighborhood. Mohsen says prayers over all these graves, but why they all have remained empty after so many years?
