Story
In The New Negro: The Life of Alain Locke, Jeffrey C. Stewart offers the definitive biography of the father of the Harlem Renaissance, based on the extant primary sources of his life and on interviews with those who knew him personally. He narrates the education of Locke, including his becoming the first African American Rhodes Scholar, earning a PhD in philosophy at Harvard University, and his long career as a professor at Howard University. And yet he became most closely associated with the flowering of Black culture in Jazz Age America.

Story
Charles De Gaulle's leadership of the French while in exile during World War II cemented his place in history. In contemporary France, he is the stuff of legend, consistently acclaimed as the nation's pre-eminent historical figure. But paradoxes abound. For one thing, his personal popularity sits oddly with his social origins and professional background. Neither the Army nor the Catholic Church is particularly well-regarded in France today, as they are seen to represent antiquated traditions and values.

Story
The New Negro Movement of the 1920s marked a shift in the pursuit of African American equality. African American soldiers were returning home from World War I, and after fighting for freedoms abroad, they were inspired to continue that fight on their own soil. The “old” ways had focused on passively accepting social policies, but the “new” ways would harness their collective voices in defining their own identity. The intellectual and artistic movement of the Harlem Renaissance stirred a tremendous wave of social change.

Story
Esta edición ampliada y actualizada de 1968, Estado y Universidad—una obra ya clásica—nos recuerda el verdadero valor de un movimiento que fue el germen de la "sociedad civil", de las ideas modernas de oposición y conciencia universitaria, de algunas de las libertades que hoy gozamos y de nuestra percepción de la tolerancia y respeto a la diversidad.

Story
Alexander Graham Bell est né en Écosse, où il enseigne à parler à des sourds. Son intérêt pour l’enseignement le conduit à développer des outils pour faciliter la communication orale. Après la mort de ses deux frères, il suit ses parents en immigrant à l'Ontario. Il s’installe ensuite à Boston, centre de recherche scientifique très vivant à la fin du 19e siècle. L’invention du téléphone lui assure la gloire et la postérité, mais comme tout grand inventeur, il mènera des recherches dans de nombreux domaines : électricité, médecine, aéronautique.

Story
Jacques Cartier prépare minutieusement son premier voyage. Comme il est soutenu par le roi de France, il parvient à lever son équipage. Le 20 avril 1534, il assiste à la messe et au sortir de l’église, toute la ville l’accompagne sur les quais. La foule en liesse veut assister au départ de ce grand personnage auquel rien ne résiste. Il appareille avec deux navires ornés du drapeau fleurdelisé, symbole de la royauté. C’est le départ pour la grande aventure. En moins de trois semaines d’une traversée assez tranquille, Jacques Cartier passe au large de Terre-Neuve.
