Extrait : Jean-François Champollion dit Champollion le Jeune (né le 23 décembre 1790 à Figeac, dans le Lot et mort le 4 mars 1832 à Paris, inhumé dans la division 18 au cimetière du Père-Lachaise), est un égyptologue français. Déchiffreur des hiéroglyphes, il est considéré comme le père de l'égyptologie. Il disait de lui-même : . Du côté paternel, Jean-François, dit le Jeune, appartenait à une famille du Valbonnais originaire de Valjouffrey (Isère), village habité par des paysans qui parcouraient la région comme colporteurs durant l'hiver. Ses grand-parents, Barthélémy Champollion, né en 1694 à Valjouffrey, qui ne savait pas signer, et Marie Géréoud ou Géroux, née en 1709 à Valbonnais, se marièrent à Valbonnais en 1727. Ils eurent cinq enfants dont Jacques, né le 10 février 1744 à La-Roche-des-Engelas (aujourd'hui hameau de Valbonnais), qui fut expulsé de son hameau natal pour des causes peut-être politiques et dut sillonner la France avant de s'installer à Figeac sans doute invité par un cousin chanoine de la basilique Saint-Sauveur. Il y épousa le 23 janvier 1773 Jeanne-Françoise Gualieu, d'une famille de bourgeois de cette ville ; il put acheter en 1772 une maison et en 1779 une boutique de libraire sur la place Basse ainsi qu'une nouvelle maison qui deviendra le musée Champollion. Il eut huit enfants de sa femme : Guillaume, mort à la naissance (octobre 1773), Thérèse née un ...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

Excerpt: Edward Stone Parker (1802 - 1865) was a Methodist preacher and assistant Protector of Aborigines in the Aboriginal Protectorate established in the Port Philip District of colonial New South Wales under George Augustus Robinson in 1838. He established and administered the Franklinford Aboriginal Protectorate Station in the territory of the Dja Dja Wurrung people from January 1841 to the end of 1848. Parker was born on 17 May 1802 in London to Edward Stone Parker and his wife Mary. He became an apprenticed printer and a Sunday school teacher in the Methodist Church and was a candidate for the ministry. He married Mary Cook Woolmer in 1828, thus breaking probationary conditions for the ministry leading him to teaching in a Methodist day school in Greater Queen Street, London. The Colonial Office in England appointed him as assistant Protector of Aborigines, and he and his wife and six sons sailed for Sydney. He arrived in Melbourne in January 1839. Robinson appointed Parker to the northwest or Loddon District in March, but he did not start his protectorate until September 1839. The Protector's duties included to safeguard aborigines from "encroachments on their property, and from acts of cruelty, of oppression or injustice" and a longer term goal of "civilising" the natives. Parker initially established his base at Jackson's Creek near Sunbury, which was not close...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=20834281 ... Read more

Excerpt: John Ford (February 1, 1894 August 31, 1973) was an American film director of Irish heritage famous for both his westerns such as Stagecoach, The Searchers, and The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, and adaptations of such classic 20th-century American novels as The Grapes of Wrath. His four Best Director Academy Awards (1935, 1940, 1941, 1952) is a record, although only one of those films, How Green Was My Valley, also won Best Picture. In a career that spanned more than 50 years, Ford directed over 140 films (although nearly all of his silent films are now lost) and he is widely regarded as one of the most important and influential filmmakers of his generation. Ford's films and personality were held in high regard by his colleagues, with Ingmar Bergman and Orson Welles among those who have named him as one of the greatest directors of all time. In particular, Ford was a pioneer of location shooting and t...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=280738 ... Read more

Chapters: Charles Boyer, Angela Devi, Mattie Blaylock. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 21. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Charles Boyer (28 August 1899 26 August 1978) was a French actor who appeared in more than 80 films between 1920 and 1976. After receiving an education in drama, Boyer started on the stage, but he found his success in movies during the 1930s. Although moving to the U.S., he maintained a heavy French accent. His most famous role was opposite Ingrid Bergman in the 1944 mystery-thriller Gaslight. Other memorable performances were possibly in the era's highly praised romantic dramas, Algiers (1938) and Love Affair (1939). He received four Academy Award nominations for Best Actor. Born in Figeac, Lot, Midi-Pyrénées, France, to Maurice and Louise Boyer, Charles was a shy, small-town boy who discovered the movies and theater at the age of eleven. Boyer performed comic sketches for soldiers while working as a hospital orderly during World War I. He began studies briefly at the Sorbonne, and was waiting for a chance to study acting at the Paris Conservatory. He went to the capital city to finish his education, but spent most of his time pursuing a theatrical career. In 1920, his quick memory won him a chance to replace the leading man in a stage production, and he scored an immediate hit. In the 1920s, he not only played a suave and sophisticated ladies' man on the stage but also appeared in several silent films. MGM signed Boyer to a contract, and he loved life in the United States, but nothing much came of his first Hollywood stay from 1929 to 1931. At first, he did film roles only for the money and found that supporting roles were unsatisfying. However, with the coming of sound, his deep voice made him a romantic star. His first break came with a very small role in ...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=98968 ... Read more

French is not English
I bought this book to read the Lewis Baltz essay. Low and behold, it's not in English as it's described, but French. Also be aware that this is a small book, 6x6 inches, also not as described. I'd send it back but I'm too lazy, but it was not as I had hoped. The images are typical of what you'd expect from mid-70s street photography, not bad but nothing exceptional either. A small disappointment. ... Read more
