Mary Wollstonecraft, Ćuvres, DĂ©fense des droits des femmes, Maria ou le Malheur dâĂȘtre femme, Marie et Caroline
Mary Wollstonecraft est encore trop peu connue du monde acadĂ©mique français, et donc malheureusement quasi inconnue du grand public français qui ne peut imaginer combien cette auteure marqua son Ă©poque bien au-delĂ des frontiĂšres de lâAngleterre. Lâintroduction savante dâIsabelle Bour se partage entre un apport biographique, toujours fascinant quand il sâagit de Wollstonecraft, grande voyageuse, grande amoureuse, grande rĂ©formatrice et grande Ă©crivaine (p. 7-20), un dĂ©veloppement sur « La rĂ©c..

The Womenâs Local Government Society in Britain 1888-1914.âTo Serve and to Electâ
International audienceIn 1888, this group defined its main objective as âto promote the return, independently of party politics, of women as county councillors.â they adopted the âSociety to Promote the Return of Women as County Councillorsâ as a name (Minutes of the Executive Committee, [MEC], 1888, 17 November); in early 1893, the âWomenâs Local Government Societyâ (WLGS) was durably adopted. The object of the society became âto secure that women shall be equally with men eligible to be elected and serve on local governing bodies.â Thus, they spelt out three claims that the law did not then sanction: equally with men, married women and spinsters alike should have access to all types of local administratio

Le journalisme comme récit théorisé du militantisme chez Teresa Billington-Greig (Grande-Bretagne, 1877-1964)
Teresa Billington-Greig was an English suffragist that denounced political and physical violence targeted at women before 1914. When she was successively a member of various suffragist organisations, she decidedly âvoicedâ and wrote that women should always repulse menâs practical, political and metaphoric violence, even if women had to transgress social norms prescribing their behaviour to do so. In her political struggle, she never separated ordinary grassroots suffragist activism from her militant journalistic writings. When her feminist commitment made her drop her suffragist activities, she unsuccessfully tried to have a press career as a feminist writer before and after the First World War She could not make a living out of journalism that had newly opened to women but that still confined them to items called âfeminineâ. Although she meant to upset established norms in the political world as well as in journalism, she did not succeed. She could be perceived as a failure by her contemporaries; however, in a historical perspective, she certainly followed an emblematic route, rejecting womenâs expected silence, all the same without making her voice heard that long

Frederick Billington-Greig (1875-1961) : seulement le mari de Teresa ?
International audienceFor many, unfortunately, it is still surprising today to speak of a man as a womanâs husband. And yet, Frederick Billington-Greig can only be researched by historians as Teresaâs husband, Teresa Billington-Greig being a suffragist, feminist and journalist. The archives give us information only through documents catalogued under the name of his wife, Teresa, and of their daughter, Fiona. The case of Frederick Billington-Greig raises the issue of support to a cause almost by proxy. More often than not, women and especially wives and daughters of historical characters are those whose lives and roles have been neglected.Pour beaucoup, malheureusement, il est encore surprenant aujourd'hui de parler d'un homme comme le mari de quelqu'une. Et pourtant Frederick Billington-Greig ne peut ĂȘtre approchĂ© par les historiens que comme le mari de Teresa Billington-Greig. Les archives de la Women's Library Ă Londres ne nous informent sur cet homme qu'au travers des documents concernant son Ă©pouse, Teresa Billington-Greig, suffragiste, journaliste et fĂ©ministe et ceux cataloguĂ©s sous le nom de leur fille. Teresa est le personnage connu, celle qui est au coeur de la recherche de l'auteure de ce chapitre
A qui parlons-nous ? Et en quelle langue ? La réception de l'Autre étranger. Le cas de « community » (anglais britannique) déchiré par la multiplicité de ses traductions en langue française
International audienceThinking of the translation of âcommunityâ in French needs specifying the implications of such a term in the original language. Such an approach demands to shed the thinking framework of oneâs native language to better convey the span of potential translations from English into French.RĂ©flĂ©chir Ă la traduction de « community » en français oblige Ă clarifier les implications de la traduction. Une telle approche suppose de se dĂ©barrasser des cadres inhĂ©rents Ă sa langue maternelle afin dâapprĂ©hender la diffĂ©rence conceptuelle qui porte la terminologie
Stefan Collini. Absent Minds - Intellectuals in Britain
Stefan Colliniâs research in intellectual history in Britain makes up an imposing bibliography, and for a writer investigating reception (see his forthcoming book Common Reading: Critics, Historians, Publics, February 2008), it must be a pleasure to see oneâs books published in paperback editions and sometimes translated. That Stefan Collini already has a reading public is tautological. Colliniâs last published book makes no exception to the rule: Absent Minds, Intellectuals in Britain, is a ..
