Paperback. Condition: New. Last Boat to Yokohama tells a story of both tragedy and grandeur in the 20th century. It recounts the life and work of Beate Sirota Gordon: the influence of her father, Leo Sirota, one of the greatest pianists of his generation; her secret work ensuring women's equality while helping to develop the post-WWII Japanese constitution--at the age of 22; her broad influence on hundreds of Western artists such as Robert Wilson, David Byrne and Peter Sellars--who were introduced to leading contemporary Asian music, dance, theater and visual artists through her extraordinary cross-cultural efforts. The book relives Beate's drive, talent, ambition, and influence, with intimate diary excerpts from her mother, an introduction by Beate herself, and an afterword from her daughter, Nicole.

Couverture souple. Condition: Comme neuf. 1ère Édition. 144 pages, dans la collection "Sur le vif", préface de Daniel Mermet. Quatrième de couverture : "Tempête, séisme, tremblement de terre. Le choc du 21 avril fut terrible : Le Pen au second tour de l'élection présidentielle, et la gauche brutalement congédiée. Une sanction claire de son incapacité à répondre aux attentes et aux demandes des classes populaires. Une interpellation qui pose la question de la reconstruction de la gauche, dans toutes ses composantes. Dès maintenant. C¿est pour éclairer cet enjeu crucial que des chercheurs, militants et responsables politiques, réunis à l¿initiative de la revue "Mouvements", ont conçu ce livre. Ils y proposent quelques axes forts, qui pourraient être ceux d¿une gauche revenue des mirages du libéralisme économique et de ses effets délétères sur les rapports sociaux. Une gauche qui souhaiterait réellement lutter pour l¿égalité de ceux qui ont choisi la France et l¿Europe pour vivre. Une gauche pour qui la discussion avec les citoyens s¿imposerait comme une évidence, dans une démocratie active. Une gauche pour qui la liberté ne signifierait pas insécurité sociale généralisée, mais protections collectives et individuelles aptes à encourager la créativité des individus.". Livre.

Couverture souple. Condition: Très bon. Broché, 86 pages. 15,5x21 cm. Cahier photos n&b. Très bon état, proche du neuf. A PROPOS : Non, tout entre l'Occident et le Japon ne se perd pas fatalement dans la traduction, et l'étranger n'est pas condamné dans ce pays à la stupeur et aux tremblements. Témoin ce jeune universitaire français qui, en phase avec un partenariat local singulièrement réceptif, fonda au Japon des institutions culturelles françaises, créa des festivals de musique et monta des opéras. Le tout, y compris selon des cheminements parfois improbables sinon romanesques, à l'ombre de la grande figure tutélaire de Claudel, âme de la présence française au Japon depuis la mémorable mission d'ambassadeur qu'il y effectua au cours des années vingt. Michel Wasserman, ancien directeur de l'Institut Franco-Japonais du Kansai et de la Villa Kujoyama, à Kyoto, enseigne à l'université Ritsumeikan et dirige une compagnie lyrique, la Kyoto Opera Society. Spécialiste du théâtre japonais traditionnel, il s'est intéressé ces dernières années à l'acclimatation de la musique occidentale dans le Japon de la modernisation.
