1892rif. 185348Paris: G. Masson 1892. An infrastructural and political revolution First and sole edition presentation copy signed on the dedication page "Hommage à Monsieur Gournay curé de Vertou. P. Bunau-Varilla 12 Septembre 1893". This comprehensive study was written by one of the driving forces behind the Panama Canal alongside de Lesseps. Most institutions list the text volume alone lacking the elaborate prospectus volume. Bunau-Varilla 1859-1940 was first sent to Panama in 1884 by the Compagnie Universelle du Canal Interocéanique where he rose to the position of chief engineer of the new canal. The attempt failed in 1889 and the company was dissolved after which he wrote a number of books to document and build support for the project's resumption. In this volume he both describes the work completed so far and his plan to complete the canal with locks. He "distributed copies of his book to the French Parliamentaries. However it did not meet any audience. as the Champer of Deputies' members did no want to be involved again in the burning subject of the Panama Canal" Loizillon p. 333 Bunau-Varilla tried again in 1894 and soon became a prominent figure in US-Panama relations. In particular when Colombia refused to ratify a treaty granting the United States rights to build the canal he encouraged the Panamanians to declare independence and his wife designed their new flag. He later signed the Hay-Bunau-Varilla Treaty giving the US control over the canal despite local protests. The canal would continue to occupy a central position in both the infrastructural and political development of Central America. This work contains a large number of photographic illustrations showing the construction as well as colour diagrams describing the geology of the area. The identity of Monsieur Gournay is unclear and there are no records linking Bunau-Varilla to the commune of Vertou. 2 vols quarto.

Summary Du palais impérial de Constantinople au rayonnage feutré de la bibliothèque municipale de Tours en passant par Chypre la Provence et Paris le manuscrit Turonensis 980 traverse les siècles les lieux et les cultures. Commandé au Xe siècle par l'empereur byzantin Constantin VII Porphyrogénète ce volume d'encyclopédie impériale - probablement issu de la prestigieuse bibliothèque de la cour - a connu un destin aussi singulier que fascinant. Les actes du colloque international « Le destin d'un manuscrit. Du vice et de la vertu : de Constantinople à Tours via Chypre » tenu à Tours en 2021 rassemblent les contributions de spécialistes venus d'horizons variés. À travers des approches croisées - philologiques historiques codicologiques - ils éclairent la genèse les usages les pérégrinations et les réappropriations successives de ce témoin précieux de l'érudition byzantine. Qu'il s'agisse des méthodes de compilation de Constantin VII des usages intellectuels de l'île de Chypre à la Renaissance ou encore de la redécouverte du manuscrit par Peiresc et Henri de Valois au XVIIe siècle cet ouvrage offre une plongée érudite dans le destin mouvant d'un texte hors du commun. Dépassant la seule étude d'un manuscrit ce volume interroge les liens multiples entre pouvoir savoir et mémoire écrite dans l'espace méditerranéen. Il rend hommage à ceux qui hier comme aujourd'hui ont contribué à sa transmission.

Summary Tablature is a generic term for music written as a table or a score most often using letters or numbers instead of conventional music notation. It was mainly used for solo instruments such as keyboards lutes and guitars and was a mainstream notation until the mid-eighteenth century. Tablatures were also used for many single-line instruments-strings winds and brass-as well as the human voice. Composers and choir masters were among the other musically bilingual musicians who used tablature in their professional lives. Tablature was the most natural way to write music in score until conventional notation was gradually adapted for score writing during the seventeenth century. Tens of thousands of tablature works survive from the early modern period until c.1750. Often dismissed as eccentric and impenetrable tablature has frequently been seen as an obstacle and often overlooked in music history studies. One of the principal aims of this book is to break down the barriers that have hindered the general assimilation of tablature repertories into the way we understand music of the past. Chosen from among thousands of surviving sources this book presents a representative group of 435 tablatures selected by a team of leading international scholars to show the beauty diversity and practicality of the notation. For each chosen work a facsimile shows the original notation and is accompanied by a modern transcription and commentary to demystify music that has too frequently been regarded as obscure or enigmatic.
