le sillon fictionnel

Dans le Sillon, le lecteur est sans doute l’élément par excellence qui rassemble tout le monde. Il est seul dans un monde agité. Il se concentre. Il est dans sa lecture. Son monde. Quand on croise un lecteur dans l’espace public, on se retrouve sans un mot. On fait partie de la même famille, même si le lecteur lit l’innommable H...

HISTOIRE DE MA VIE. Jean Marie Deguignet (1834-1905). L'intégrale des Mémoires d'un paysan bas-breton.
Autodidacte, anticlérical, libertaire, cafetier, fermier, engagé dans 4 campagnes du Second Empire le bonhomme hors norme nous livre un témoignage du monde d'alors.
Il termine ainsi :
" Je souhaite à l’humanité de se comprendre et de s’entendre dans une vie sociale digne et heureuse."
Il meurt miséreux...

#Lecture : « Artemisia. Héroïne de l’#art » au #Fonds #Mercator

Artiste importante de l’ère baroque, Artemisia Gentileschi (1593-v.1656) s’est imposée dans l’histoire de l’art par sa carrière exceptionnelle, à une époque où l’exercice de la peinture était presque exclusivement réservé aux hommes.   Personnalité au destin hors norme, elle a fait de son art un moyen d’affirmer son existence et de défier les normes de son temps. Née à Rome et formée dans l’atelier de son…

I look forward to the Feminist Lecture Program's events every week. Tomorrow's pay-what-you-can lecture is about abortion in the Middle Ages.

outsavvy.com/event/24283/by-ho

Whether you attend live or book the recording only, you have access to the lecture for a week.

OutSavvyBy Hook or by Crook: Abortions in the Middle Ages Tickets - - OutSavvyFLP welcomes back Noam Yadin Evron for a timely and important lecture on the medieval history of abortion… CLASS DESCRIPTION In the Medieval world, as in the modern one, abortion and contraception were a part of life. The fact that abortions were performed, and the methods used to perform them, are evident in legal, religious, and medical documents, both textual and visual. Those who administered them, as well as those who underwent them, came from all walks of life, and in either case, did so with significant risk. Tracing the practice of Medieval abortions is difficult, and the evidence is not always forthcoming. But finding it allows us to trace silent networks of solidarity, agency, and care. Then as now, not everyone saw the termination of pregnancy as a legitimate thing. On a theoretical and moral level, we see questions like: Who has the authority to control the progression of a pregnancy? When does a foetus become a person? Who is the main person affected by an act of abortion? The answers to these questions were far from unanimous. This lecture will introduce both the discussion on and the reality of abortions in the European Middle Ages. It will ask what we can learn about the attitudes towards women, sexuality, and authority from these debates and practices. It will also challenge the concept that the growing threat in the global North of restricting access to abortions or forbidding them altogether is “Medieval”, as it is so often referred to. These practices are not without their historical precedents, but their contemporary manifestation, especially in the US, is completely modern, and in many ways significantly more extreme than their assumed Medieval roots. ABOUT OUR LECTURER Noam Yadin-Evron is a lecturer of art history and museum studies. Her PhD looked at the early Church conceptions of wealth and poverty, and how these were manifested and embodied in its art. Her MA is in Medieval art history and gender studies. She is based in South East London.

Samedi dernier, lendemain de tempête. La plage héraultaise était réduite à peau de chagrin et des monceaux de bois parsemaient ce qui reste de sable. Nombre de ganivelles sont endommagées et certains passages sont désormais difficiles d’accès, tant la mer a rongé les dunes. Le vent souffle encore fort, mais la mer, sublime, donne le sourire à celles et ceux qui marchent sur son […]

Une plage avec de nombreux morceaux de bois éparpillés sur le sable, près de dunes équipées de ganivelles mais quasi rongées par une récente tempête. Des gens bien couverts marchent le long de l'eau qui avance sur le rivage et ne laisse que peu de place.
Un cours d'eau entre ses rives arborées. La végétation est encore en mode hivernal. Sur la droite de l'image, une grosse dalle de roche s'avance au-dessus de l'eau. Le ciel est fort nuageux.

Furthering

This week's Feminist Lecture Program lecture was about relationship anarchy. The lecturer argued against a capitalist romance-centric society that treats affection as a scarce resource and which encourages the creation of relationship hierarchies.

As someone who has often been frustrated by both phenomena (as well as the entertainment culture that feeds off of and perpetuates them), I found the talk, and the presentation of alternatives, refreshing.

« Dimanche dernier, je suis tombé sur une chanson que vous aurez très certainement l’occasion d’entendre à moult reprises puisqu’elle représentera la France à l’Eurovision. Le titre m’a fait penser à cette chanson de Melissmell qui, elle, fait vibrer chaque infime parcelle de mon épiderme. (...)»
