Kaum ein Staatsmann Frankreichs hat bereits zu Lebzeiten so kontroverse Einschätzungen hervorgerufen oder ein vergleichbares Maß an Anfeindungen selbst aus dem eigenen Lager auf sich gezogen wie Paul Reynaud. Sein glückloses Agieren als Ministerpräsident und die Umstände seines Rücktritts im Frühsommer 1940 verknüpfen seinen Namen zudem mit einem Abschnitt der französischen Zeitgeschichte, der das kollektive Gedächtnis des Landes traumatisch belastet hat. Die katastrophale militärische Niederlage und die anschließende Selbstpreisgabe der parlamentarischen Demokratie überschatten so zu Unrecht das politische Lebenswerk eines Mannes, der lange als einer der innovativsten und mutigsten Politiker Frankreichs aufgetreten war. Die Untersuchung folgt ihrem Protagonisten auf wichtige Reflexions- und Handlungsfelder und erarbeitet ein Politikerprofil, das in vielem als paradigmatisch für die noch über den Zweiten Weltkrieg hinaus parteigeschichtlich kaum faßbare rechte Mitte Frankreichs gelten kann. Paul Reynaud was one of the few French statesmen whose activities were controversial even while he was still alive. His unfortunate term as Prime Minister and the circumstances of his abduction 1940 will forever link him to the issue of the German occupation of France, a situation which has left a deep impact in the French collective consciousness. Grüner works to show the unknown facets of Reynauds biography and personality and proves that he was one of the most innovative politicians of his time.

PAUL GILSON (1865-1942), born and raised in Brussels, grew into a valued artist during the fin de siècle. He was and is known as an erudite composer, orchestrator, theoretician, critic, musicographer and educator. A prestigious Prix de Rome (1889) and his symphonic work La Mer (1892) made him known far beyond the national borders. Because of his remarkable commitment to wind music, and that of amateur orchestras in particular, we still remember Gilson today as the Father of Belgian wind music. Gilson's extremely versatile artistry resonated with numerous international trends. He closely followed current musical life at home and abroad and reported extensively in newspapers, magazines and radio broadcasts. At the conservatories of Brussels and Antwerp and as a private teacher, he managed to stimulate and sustainably influence a new generation of composers and musicians. That pedagogical passion also challenged Gilson to bundle his sharp insights into theoretical tracts. All of these facets of Gilson's life and work are the focus of this book, with a particular focus on his national and international importance. From his life to his correspondence with Russians, from his elaborate theories to his music for wind orchestras, opera music and compositions for horn and saxophone: the authors of this volume provide an in-depth and extensive insight into the character of Paul Gilson.

This study reassesses the poetry of Paul Fleming (1609-1640) in the context of its own literary, historical, and social background. The four chapters focus initially on generic and historical context. The study of selected texts leads to more general considerations of the sources and significance of certain major themes. A number of poems by Fleming and poets contemporary with him uncovered in the twentieth century are evaluated here for the first time. The result is a substantially revised view of Fleming's poetic development. Fleming is shown to have been a more complex and wide-ranging poet than was conventionally thought, one whose debt to Renaissance literary traditions has been underestimated.

At the basis of Paul Ricœur's philosophy, there is an intense and practical engagement with the urgent issues of his time - (de)colonization, globalization, modernity, cultural plurality, geopolitics. Examining this neglected fact reinvigorates the contemporary relevance of his thought and revitalizes social-political hermeneutics.
