There, eaten up by pride, lust, petty grudges, and paranoid fantasies, he does as little as he possibly can while plotting his eventual transfer to Buenos Aires, where everything about his hopeless exi

Le don des langues n'est pas tant une aptitude à les parler mais plus à les entendre. Il est question ici de comprendre spécifiquement la relation Écoute-Langage. Celui qui parle est le premier auditeur de ce qu'il dit. Favoriser l'écoute, c'est éduquer ou rééduquer le langage, mais puisque par l'accession au langage, l'enfant s'ouvre aux apprentissages (lecture, écriture). L'écoute est aussi un passeport pour la communication, la maîtrise des langues, du chant, de la musique. Il y a une nuance notable entre entendre et écouter et ne sachant pas écouter, nous

Traditionally composed by Solomon sometime around 950-970 BCE but dated on linguistic evidence somewhere in the third century, this meditation on the futility of mankind's striving can bring comfort to those of firm or fragile faith, or of no faith at all.

Wycliffe's chapter divisions in some cases differ from those of later versions (the King James, for example). Th

Born near Dorchester, Thomas Hardy (1840-1928) set most of his stories in the region between Berkshire and Dorset in the fictional county of Wessex. He was a controversial writer whose work often showed the result of flouting the rigid Victorian moral code - his novel JUDE THE OBSCURE was (allegedly) burned by the Bishop of Wakefield for its shocking content. Hardy was an unflinching observer and in TESS has left us some unforgettable vignettes of rural life in late 19th-century England: the sl
