The New Republic is an American magazine of commentary on politics, contemporary culture, and the arts. Founded in 1914 by several leaders of the progressive movement, it attempted to find a balance between "a liberalism centered in humanitarian and moral passion and one based in an ethos of scientific analysis". Through the 1980s and 1990s, the magazine incorporated elements of the Third Way and conservatism. In 2014, two years after Facebook co-founder Chris Hughes purchased the magazine, he ousted its editor and attempted to remake its format, operations, and partisan stances, provoking the resignation of the majority of its editors and writers. In early 2016, Hughes announced he was putting the magazine up for sale, indicating the need for "new vision and leadership". The magazine was sold in February 2016 to Win McCormack, under whom the publication has returned to a more progressive stance. A weekly or near-weekly for most of its history, the magazine currently publishes ten issues per year. The New Republic was founded by Herbert Croly, Walter Lippmann, and Walter Weyl through the financial backing of heiress Dorothy Payne Whitney and her husband, Willard Straight, who maintained majority ownership. The magazine's first issue was published on November 7, 1914. The magazine's politics were liberal and progressive, and as such concerned with coping with the great changes brought about by middle-class reform efforts designed to remedy the weaknesses in America's changing economy and society. The magazine is widely considered important in changing the character of liberalism in the direction of governmental interventionism, both foreign and domestic. The most important of them was the emergence of the U.S. as a great power on the international scene. In 1917, TNR urged America's entry into the Great War on the side of the Allies. One consequence of the war was the Russian Revolution of 1917. During the interwar years, the magazine was generally positive in its assessment of the Soviet Union and Joseph Stalin. However, the magazine changed its position after the Cold War began in 1947, and in 1948, its leftist editor, Henry A. Wallace, departed to run for president on the Progressive ticket. After Wallace, the magazine moved toward positions more typical of mainstream American liberalism. Throughout the 1950s, the publication was critical of both Soviet foreign policy and domestic anticommunism, particularly McCarthyism. During the 1960s, the magazine opposed the Vietnam War but also often criticized the New Left. Until the late 1960s, the magazine had a certain "cachet as the voice of re-invigorated liberalism," in the opinion of the commentator Eric Alterman, who has criticized the magazine's politics from the left. That cachet, Alterman wrote, "was perhaps best illustrated when the dashing, young President Kennedy had been photographed boarding Air Force One holding a copy.". …

Paris Gallimard (Bibliothèque de la Pléiade) 1972 Relié avec protection rhodoïd et boite orig., 1490pp., 11.5x18cm., en très bon état. ISBN 9782070107292. «Si Giono (1895-1970) a passé sa vie en Provence, son oeuvre dépasse le Midi : les paysages et les êtres qu'il fait vivre sont aussi ceux des Alpes et de l'Italie. Du panthéisme optimiste et lumineux de ses débuts à l'engagement pacifiste d'avant 1939, aux épopées de sa maturité, aux narrations complexes et denses de ses noires "Chroniques", à la sérénité conquise et à l'humour des dernières années, ce grand romancier généreux fut un inventeur sensible et sensuel de personnages, d'atmosphères, d'images, un poète bouillonnant mais un observateur minutieux, fabulateur dans sa vie et créateur toujours renouvelé dans ses styles et sa narration, "robuste et effervescent".» Ce deuxième volume des oeuvres romanesques complètes de Jean Giono rassemble quatre romans majeurs de sa période d'entre-deux-guerres : Jean le Bleu, Le Chant du monde, Que ma joie demeure et Batailles dans la montagne. Ces oeuvres illustrent la transition de Giono d'un naturalisme lyrique vers une narration plus symbolique et épique. Elles explorent des thèmes tels que la relation de l'homme à la nature, la quête de bonheur et la résistance face aux bouleversements sociaux. L'écriture de Giono, riche en images poétiques et en descriptions sensorielles, confère à ces récits une dimension universelle et intemporelle. Jean Giono (1895-1970) était un écrivain français profondément enraciné en Provence, sa région natale. Autodidacte, il commence sa carrière littéraire dans les années 1920, s'inspirant des paysages et des traditions provençales. Son oeuvre, marquée par un humanisme profond et une sensibilité écologique avant l'heure, évolue au fil du temps vers des récits plus sombres et introspectifs. Giono a également été un fervent pacifiste, ce qui a influencé certains de ses écrits. Son style unique, mêlant lyrisme, réalisme et symbolisme, fait de lui une figure majeure de la littérature française du XXe siècle.…
