Title : Brûlebois - Marcel Aymé - book
Summary : For what is said to be the nobility of the human species, I would see it better appear as a sign of the honest concern for some true perfection for which nature has constructed each one." Thus, according to the master, human nature is never so deprived that it does not find in itself some honest passion by which it can claim a particular perfection. It remains to distinguish between honest passions and bad passions. Many of these have not deserved their reputation, but none has suffered from the rigors of opinion more unjustly than the passion for wine. The moralists, with incredible levity, on purely external appearances, such as a bulging nose, a dilated stomach, delirium tremens, agree to condemn the abuse of strong drinks and, limited to immediate conclusions, preach in ignorance of the sensible paths, haunted by sun and dreams, and inhuman geometries, which lead from cause to the effect. This is why Marcel Aymé undertakes to restore to us in nobility and beauty the magnificent ambition to drink to one's thirst. Brûlebois, the tender alcoholic he tells us about, pursues in full awareness of "the true perfection for which nature built him", and even to the point of martyrdom, his extraordinary vocation as a drunkard. And, to the desolate sermons carried by the dry American wind, Brûlebois candidly opposes his breath incomparably perfumed with strong wine.

Title : Bibliolycée - Learned Women - Molière - book
Summary :
Philaminte loves above all “beautiful language and high sciences.” She runs her household with an iron fist, supported by her eldest daughter, the prudish Armande, and her half-mad sister-in-law, Bélise, convinced that everyone loves her. This trio is ecstatic over Trissotin, the pedant who is thrice foolish. This new Tartuffe covets the dowry of Henriette, the youngest, who prefers the amiable Clitandre. In his last comedy in verse, Molière mocks the "snobberies" of his time without misogyny. The fault of learned women is not their infatuation with philosophy, but their ridiculous preciosity and affected mannerism which, even today, continue to make us laugh because it is true that these faults persist.
Library high school propose : • the full annotated text, • a first reading assessment questionnaire, • work analysis questionnaires, • five corpora accompanied by observation questions, writing tasks and image readings, • a presentation of Molière and his era, • an overview of the genre of the work and its place in literary history.
