Description:
France: Albin Michel, 2008 Ouvrage illustré de fac-similés, de photographies et d'idéogrammes chinois. «Qu'elle exerce sur le monde occidental un pouvoir de fascination ou qu'elle suscite des craintes, la Chine est devenue incontournable. Pourtant, plus elle s'immisce dans notre vie quotidienne, plus elle semble lointaine et mystérieuse. Pour nous ouvrir les portes de l'univers et du mode de pensée chinois, l'auteur s'est livré à une sorte d'inventaire à la Prévert en racontant les mille et une histoires que contiennent les idéogrammes. Conçus il y a trente-cinq siècles, restés inchangés dans leurs principes, ces signes, qui sont des dessins d'idées, véhiculent des valeurs tout en suivant une logique singulière. Comment font donc les Chinois pour écrire les produits de la modernité tels que Coca-Cola, e-mail ou laser? Et quels… Read More

Description:
Great Britain: Transworld Publishers/Bantam Press, 2002 «On 8 February 1421 the largest fleet the world had ever seen sailed from its base in China. The ships, 500 foot long junks made from the finest teak and mahogany, were led by Emperor Zhu Di's loyal eunuch admirals. Their mission was 'to proceed all the way to the end of the earth to collect tribute from the barbarians beyond the seas' and unite the whole world in Confucian harmony. Their journey would last over two years and circle the entire globe. When they returned Zhu Di had fallen from power and China was beginning its long, self-imposed isolation from the world it had so recently embraced. The great ships rotted at their moorings and the records of their journeys were destroyed. Lost was the knowledge that Chinese ships had reached America seventy years before Columbus and circumnavigated the globe a century before Magellan. They has also discovered Antarctica, reached Australia three hundred and fifty years before Cook… Read More

De chine et d'autres routes orientales, les conteurs ont su venir à nous avec leurs mots comme une fête. ils parlent de la mer, aux marches des principautés centrales, qu'un oiseau n'en finit pas de combler, de la lune qu'habite le lièvre d'immortalité, du soleil qu'on dit hanté par un corbeau, d'îles plus vertes qu'un songe et d'autres choses plus étranges encore. Les lettrés ont transcrit leurs dits: comme job, ils demandent des comptes sur l'état du monde. C'est ainsi qu'est le mythe semblable à un enfant qui, inlassablement. demande pourquoi. depuis les premiers âges de l'écrit, dont ils avaient la charge, ils n'ont… Read More

Description:
United Kingdom: Oxford University Press, 1971 « Like Machiavelli's The Prince and the Japanese Book of Five Rings, Sun Tzu's The Art of War is as timely for business people today as it was for military strategists in ancient China. Written in China more than 2,000 years ago, Sun Tzu's classic The Art of War is the first known study of the planning and conduct of military operations. These terse, aphoristic essays are unsurpassed in comprehensiveness and depth of understanding, examining not only battlefield maneuvers, but also relevant economic, political, and psychological factors. Indeed, the precepts outlined by Sun Tzu regularly applied outside the realm of military theory. It is read avidly by Japanese businessmen and was touted in the movie Wall Street as the corporate raider's bible. Providing a much-needed translation of this classic, Samuel Griffith has made this powerful and unique work even more relevant to the modern world. Including an explanatory introduction and… Read More

Lorsque Dai Wei, sortira du coma une décennie plus tard, se reconnaîtra-t-il seulement dans cette Chine pétrie de contradictions ? Histoire, mémoire, liberté, Beijing Coma explore les pierres angulaires de la société - les droits fondamentaux sans lesquels l'être humain ne pourrait survivre.
