Title : Five Lessons on Psychoanalysis - Followed by Contribution to the History of the Psychoanalytic Movement - Sigmund Freud - Book Summary : In September 1909, Freud delivered five lectures in the United States to a non-specialist audience, in which he not only gave a simple and lively account of the origins of psychoanalysis, invented by the hysteric Anna O., but also an introduction to the main themes of this science: the interpretation of dreams, the Oedipus complex, infantile sexuality, the nature of neuroses and the reasons why some people take refuge in illness. These "Five Lectures on Psychoanalysis" were followed by a "Contribution to the History of the Psychoanalytic Movement", in which Freud retraces the difficult beginnings of psychoanalysis and the resistance it had to overcome.

Title : Europe in the Middle Ages - Georges Duby - Book Summary : This book aims to demonstrate the significance of art in medieval Europe and its relationship to society and culture as a whole. Almost only the masterpieces of medieval artistic creation have survived. Their refinement overshadowed a dense mass of brutality, terror, and misery. Lest this be forgotten, texts revealing this tragic aspect are placed as a counterpoint to a general discourse on the monastery, the cathedral, and the palace.

Title : A heartache and elsewhere - Françoise Mallet-Joris - Book Summary : "Allegra was already the moving portrait of a woman who loses her footing in a hopeless novel, and Dickie Roi, the expression of the same blind quest. Jeannette, her new heroine, is their sister. If she drinks, if she finds herself in detoxification treatment in a pretty flowery clinic, it is not only to forget her heavy forties, nor her husband who is cheating on her with Marie-Christine, his young, ambitious assistant. She lacks a meaning to life, no doubt." Matthieu Galey, L'express "Not a feminist? Surely! But heartbreaking with truths so hard to say, and which Françoise Mallet-Joris does not hesitate to repeat, and differently, while a busy world is busy, everyone sucking up to the boss... It is Jeannette the purest drunkard; the toughest, the loneliest too, it's true, it's as if it were the price to pay! No, it's not just a little love story, this heartache and elsewhere...

Title : If Only... Life Were Learned from Romance Novels - Kristan Higgins - Book Summary : Kristan Higgins' new novel: a survival guide for broken hearts. A must-read author of “feel good” novels  If only... paints a parallel portrait of two sisters at a turning point in their lives. One, a disillusioned single after a breakup, leaves New York to return to the city of her childhood. The other, who believed she was living a perfect marriage, discovers that it is built on a lie. A fair and sincere portrait, full of sometimes acerbic humor and disillusionment defused by laughter: because life, real life, cannot be learned from romance novels... In this two-part comedy of manners, we happily rediscover what so many readers of Kristan Higgins enjoy: biting humor, heroines with a real sense of self-deprecation, and that unique blend of humor and emotion that characterizes her. The author confronts her two characters with situations in which many women will recognize themselves.   Kristan Higgins possesses the rare talent of knowing how to make people laugh as much as she does to move them. She has sold more than 200,000 books in France since 2012. Translated from English (United States) by Marie Lauzeral Le Grix de la Salle  Press review “A little gem, a breath of fresh air” Blog Lune et Plume “We smile, it’s good for morale” Blog Un brin de lecture EAN: 9791033900108 Used book Book in good condition The book matches the photo
