Abstract

An important chapter in the history and folklore of the West is how women on the cattle frontier took their place as equal partners with men. The cowboy may be our most authentic folk hero, but the cowgirl is right on his heels. This Spur Award winning book fills a void in the history of the cowgirl. While Susan B. Anthony and her hoop-skirted friends were declaring that females too were created equal, Sally Skull was already riding and roping and marking cattle with her Circle S brand on the frontier of Texas. Wearing rawhide bloomers and riding astride, she thought nothing of crossing the bo

Abstract

Non loin de Tombouctou tombée sous le joug des extrémistes religieux, Kidane mène une vie simple et paisible dans les dunes, entouré de sa femme Satima, sa fille Toya et de Issan, son petit berger âgé de 12 ans. En ville, les habitants subissent, impuissants, le régime de terreur des djihadistes qui ont pris en otage leur foi. Fini la musique et les rires, les cigarettes et même le football... Les femmes sont devenues des ombres qui tentent de résister avec dignité. Des tribunaux improvisés rendent chaque jour leurs sentences absurdes et tragiques. Kidane et les siens semblent un temps épargnés par le chaos de Tombouctou. Mais leur destin bascule le jour où Kidane tue accidentellement Amadou le pêcheur qui s'en est pris à GPS, sa vache préférée. Il doit alors faire face aux nouvelles lois de ces occupants venus d'ailleurs...Difficile de ne pas se laisser happer par la beauté formelle de "Timbuktu". Difficile de ne pas être saisi par l'esprit de résistance des personnages féminins, tous terriblement attachants. Difficile, en somme, d'oublier "Timbuktu".

Abstract

The subject of cattle-raids carried out by various nomadic communities on their counterparts is a subject of interest, intrigue and misinterpretation. What was the original purpose of cattle-raids in the concerned nomadic communities? How exactly were the raids carried out? What were the norms and taboos governing cattle-raids and wars in the traditional tribal folklore? Is cattle-raising compatible with modern society? Is it acceptable for perpetrators of modern cattle-raiding to hide behind ""tradition"" and justify their criminal activities. The above are some of the questions that inspired
