Tahiti has a rich history of oral tradition. Early visitors to the island transcribed recitations of myth, battle address, and land description. Until now their poetic organization has remained unexplored. From a computationally assisted analysis, this book describes early use of meter and parallelism and speculates on manner of composition. It sheds light on a poetic style unanticipated for Polynesia and remarkable among world poetries.

Quelle serait la part d'Israël dans l'accomplissement du récit européen ? Et, en écho, la part d'Europe dans l'achèvement d'Israël ? Ce double questionnement sert de trame au récit des deux auteurs sur l'inachèvement de l'Europe comme sur l'inachèvement d'Israël. Mais peut-on relier les deux ? Tout en reconnaissant la spécificité absolue des expériences d'Israël et de l'Europe, peut-on y trouver des constantes de l'histoire humaine, constantes que l'on pourrait peut-être déchiffrer et relier entre elles ? Non pas dans l'espoir de faire émerger un récit commun, mais au moins de voir si les récits respectifs se font écho et permettent de tisser du neuf.

Hong Kong has remained the global metropolis for Asia since its founding in the 1840s following the Opium Wars between Britain and China. David Meyer traces its vibrant history from the arrival of the foreign trading firms, when it was established as one of the leading Asian business centres, to its celebrated handover to China in 1997. Throughout this period, Hong Kong has been prominent as a pivotal meeting place of the Chinese and foreign social networks of capital and as such has been China's window on to the world economy, dominating other financial centers such as Singapore and Tokyo. Looking into the future, the author presents an optimistic view of Hong Kong in the twenty-first century, challenging those who predict its decline under Chinese rule. This accessible and broad-ranging look at the story of Hong Kong's success will interest anyone concerned with its past, present and future.
