Abstract

Nous sommes en 2005, Jorge Semprun se confronte à son passé et entreprend un autre travail de remémoration. Il revient dans ce texte inédit sur des événements qu'il a vécus, et relate, comme il ne l'a encore jusque-là jamais fait, son expérience de la torture. Témoignage sans pathos, récit, à la fois poignant et détaché, d'où se dégage une perception philosophique prégnante. Jorge Semprun poursuit dans cet ouvrage une réflexion engagée dans les écrits fondateurs de son œuvre, tels Le grand voyage ou L'écriture ou la vie, et offre une dernière analyse sur la corrélation entre l'écriture et la réalité. Un nouvel éclairage saisissant de ce que fut ce singulier penseur.

Abstract

"The Legion's detour through Siberia became the story of the war, chronicled weekly in the New York Times and New York Herald. For political purposes, tales of the Legion's odyssey have been buried or expunged. This revealing volume offers the first account of this hidden yet epic journey, shedding light on a forgotten facet of World War I"--Provided by publisher.

Abstract

On Captivity is the first translation into English of Del Cautiverio, Manuel Ciges Aparicio's account of his imprisonment in the notorious La Cabaña fortress in Havana during the Cuban War of Independence (1895-98). Ciges enlisted in the Spanish army in 1893 at the age of twenty. He served in Africa and then in Cuba, where he opposed Spanish General Valeriano Weyler's policies in Cuba as well as the war itself. Ciges soon found himself imprisoned and facing execution for treason as punishment for an article critical of Weyler's conducti

Abstract

Among the finer soldier-diarists of the Civil War, John Edward Dooley first came to the attention of readers when an edition of his wartime journal, edited by Joseph Durkin, was published in 1945. That book, John Dooley, Confederate Soldier, became a widely used resource for historians, who frequently tapped Dooley's vivid accounts of Second Bull Run, Antietam, and Gettysburg, where he was wounded during Pickett's Charge and subsequently captured. As it happens, the 1945 edition is actually a much-truncated version of Dooley's original journal that fails to capture
