Charles de Gaulle is one of the greatest figures of twentieth century history. If Sir Winston Churchill was (in the words of Harold Macmillan) the "greatest Englishman In history", then Charles de Gaulle was without a doubt, the greatest Frenchman since Napoleon Bonaparte. Why so? In the early summer of 1940, when France was overrun by German troops, one junior general who had fought in the trenches in Verdun refused to accept defeat. He fled to London, where he took to the radio to address his compatriots back home. “Whatever happens,” he said, “the flame of French resistance must not be extinguished and will not be extinguished.” At that moment, Charles de Gaulle entered history. For the rest of the war, de Gaulle insisted he and his Free French movement were the true embodiment of France. Through sheer force of his personality and the grandeur of his vision of France, he inspired French men and women to risk their lives to resist the Nazi occupation. Usually proud and aloof, but almost always confident in his own leadership, he quarreled violently with Churchill, Roosevelt and many of his own countrymen. Yet they knew they would need his help to rebuild a shattered France. Thanks to de Gaulle, France was recognized as one of the victorious Allies when Germany was finally defeated. Then, as President of the Fifth Republic, he brought France back from the brink of a civil war over the war in Algeria. And, made the difficult decision to end the self-same war. Thereafter he challenged American hegemony, took France out of NATO, and twice vetoed British entry into the European Community in his pursuit of what he called “a certain idea of France.” Julian Jackson, Professor of History at Queen Mary College, University of London, past winner of the Wolfson History Prize and the winner in 2018 of the Paris Book Award for his book on De Gaulle--De Gaulle (Harvard University Press, 2018)--has written a magnificent biography, the first major reconsideration in over twenty years. Drawing on the extensive resources of the recently opened de Gaulle archives, Jackson reveals the conservative roots of de Gaulle's intellectual formation and upbringing, sheds new light on his relationship with Churchill, and shows how de Gaulle confronted riots at home and violent independence movements abroad from the Middle East to Vietnam. No previous biography has so vividly depicted this towering figure whose legacy remains evident in present-day France. In short Professor Jackson has written a superb book, which in every way possible is a glittering ornament in the biographical art. Charles Coutinho holds a doctorate in history from New York University. Where he studied with Tony Judt, Stewart Stehlin and McGeorge Bundy. His Ph. D. dissertation was on Anglo-American relations in the run-up to the Suez Crisis of 1956. His area of specialization is 19th and 20th-century European, American diplomatic and political history.

In February 1973, French right wingers broke into the grave of of fascist dictator Philippe Pétain and made off with his mortal remains. This is the tragicomic story of what led them to that moment... and what happened afterwards. https://order-of-the-jackalope.com/the-marshal-is-missing/ Key sources for this episode include Jean-Yves La Naour's On a volé le Maréchal; Michel Dumas' La permission du Maréchal; Hugo Coniez's La mort de la IIIe Republique; and Julian Jackson's France on Trial: The Case of Marshal Petain. Presented by #42 (Alex Baumans). Alex is pathologically interested in anything unusual and obscure. He's a closet goth, armchair general and amateur theologian. His favorite animals are ducks, octopodes and pigs. You will also find him surprisingly knowledgable about K-Pop girl groups. The Ancient and Esoteric Order of the Jackalope is a secret society devoted to the idea that that which is least known is best to know. Each episode we share a strange story or amazing fact, and no topic is off limits -- if it's interesting or entertaining, we'll cover about it!

80 ans après la libération de la France, nous revisitons le procès historique du Maréchal Pétain lors de l'été 1945. « C'est un vrai procès, avec un vrai débat », déclare l'historien Julian Jackson dans les lieux même où il s'est déroulé, au sein du Palais de justice de Paris, sur l'île de la Cité. Julian Jackson est spécialiste de l'histoire de France au XXème siècle et il nous propose de revivre le procès de l'ancien chef du gouvernement de Vichy, une expérience inédite enregistrée par RFI et partagée avec notre invité Denis Salas, président de l'Association française de l'Histoire de la justice et ancien juge. Revenons justement à l'Occupation de la France par les nazis et à cette photographie qui a tellement choqué les Français : le Maréchal Pétain, héros de la Première guerre mondiale, serrant la main de Hitler, le 24 Octobre 1940. Une photo symbole de la collaboration. C'est à la radio que le Maréchal Pétain explique alors son choix. « Français j'ai rencontré le Chancelier du Reich. Cette première rencontre entre le vainqueur et le vaincu marque le premier redressement de notre pays. C'est dans l'honneur et pour maintenir l'unité française que j'entre aujourd'hui dans la voie de la collaboration. (…) L'armistice au demeurant n'est pas la paix (…) la France est tenue par des obligations nombreuses vis-à-vis du vainqueur, du moins reste-t-elle souveraine. Cette politique est la mienne, mes ministres ne sont responsables que devant moi. C'est moi seul que l'Histoire jugera. » C'est également à la radio que Charles de Gaulle, Chef de la France libre a fait connaitre son choix. « Un jour, la France libérée punira les responsables de ces désastres et les artisans de sa servitude. » Comme l'avait déclaré le Général De Gaulle en 1940, il s'agit en 1945 de punir Pétain mais aussi de le juger. Le Maréchal Pétain s'est rendu à la France depuis la Suisse, fin Avril 1945 et que c'est en prison à Montrouge dans le sud de Paris, qu'il attend son procès. Un procès qui a lieu au sein de la première Chambre d'appel de la Cour de Paris du 23 juillet au 15 Août 1945. Et c'est dans cette même salle que Julian Jackson nous raconte les trois semaines du procès. Si la première semaine est marquée par le silence de Pétain, le grand évènement de la deuxième semaine, c'est l'arrivée de Pierre Laval. Joseph Kessel écrit sur « sa laideur fascinante, avec ses énormes oreilles et ses yeux reptiliens », il serait le mauvais génie de Pétain. Si l'accusation réclame la peine de mort, l'avocat principal Fernand Payen joue la carte de la sénilité tandis que le jeune et brillant Jacques Isorni, partage les valeurs de son client et met en scène une défense de rupture en assumant la collaboration de Vichy. Tous les protagonistes sont conscients que le verdict de la peine de mort sera commué en prison à vie. Mais ce procès pour l'Histoire écrit-il toute l'histoire de la collaboration de Vichy avec les nazis ? « Certainement pas, nous dit Denis Salas, il y a un moment de justice avec ce procès de 45, qui a été prolongé et complété par la suite par d'autres moments de justice (Entre 1987 et 1998, la justice française a jugé Klaus Barbie, Paul Touvier et Maurice Papon) qui ont prouvé la participation active et déterminante du régime de Vichy à la déportation des juifs de France.

Rich lodes of valuable metals lie on the seafloor. Will a global rush to mine them be allowed – and will doing so damage the world’s oceans? Synopsis: Every first and third Tuesday of the month, The Straits Times analyses the beat of the changing environment, from biodiversity conservation to climate change. Scattered across the sea bed are trillions of potato-sized lumps brimming with lucrative metals vital to making electric vehicle batteries, wind turbines, smartphones and much more. This is sparking a “blue rush”, as some countries and companies are eager to cash-in on them. Yet the mining of polymetallic nodules remains banned and there are growing concerns that scooping them off the sea floor risks disrupting one of the most important, but still poorly understood, parts of the planet. In this episode, hosts Audrey Tan and David Fogarty speak with The Pew Charitable Trusts’ project director of ocean governance Julian Jackson on the risks. Highlights of conversation (click/tap above): 2:12 Three different types of deep sea mining 6:42 Environmental impacts of deep sea mining 12:21 Why countries are pushing for deep sea mining 14:58 Implication of Micronesian country Nauru announcing intention to start sea bed mining. 17:02 Is deep sea mining necessary?

Visit us at Network2020.org.The technological world is built by critical minerals like nickel, cobalt, and lithium. As the demand for clean energy expands, so does the demand for these metals and rare earth elements. While these materials have historically been mined on land, a trove of critical minerals is lying on the seabed and being captured by the competitive, booming, and opaque deep-sea-mining industry. The U.S. is missing out in this race while its geopolitical competitors, China and Russia are getting ahead in this industry. On the other hand, scientists and environmentalists are raising concerns regarding the environmental impacts of the industry's activities. What is the scope and growth potential of this industry? How is it governed? How can countries balance environmental goals with economic and geopolitical ones?Join us for a conversation with Julian Jackson, Project Director of Ocean Governance at the Pew Charitable Trusts; Vasser Seydel, President of The Oxygen Project ;and Victor Vescovo, Founder and CEO of Caladan Capital LLC and Renowned Undersea Explorer where they discuss the deep-sea mining industry, its governance, geopolitics, potential environmental impacts and more.Music by Yurii Semchyshyn from PixabayMusic by Sergii Pavkin from Pixabay
The dramatic quarrel between the leader of the Free French forces - Charles de Gaulle and Philippe Pétain - head of Vichy France, during the dark days of the 1940's, was in many ways a struggle for the very future of France. Joining Patrick to discuss what divided these two men, why they followed the paths they did, and also what they held in common, is leading historian on the subject Julian Jackson.

Part statesman, part prophet, Charles de Gaulle knew instinctively that political success and failure are inevitably interlinked, and that history would be the ultimate judge of both.

Marshal Pétain emerged from the First World War as a French national hero. His defence of Verdun had set him on course to become one of France's most venerated commanders. But by 1945 the Marshal was on trial for treason, having collaborated with Nazi Germany as the head of the Vichy regime.Dan is joined by Julian Jackson, author of the Pol Roger Duff Cooper Prize-winning book 'France on Trial: The Case of Marshal Pétain'. Julian explains how Marshal Pétain went from the hero of Verdun to the traitor of Vichy, and why his trial remains divisive eight decades later.Produced by James Hickmann and edited by Dougal Patmore.Enjoy unlimited access to award-winning original documentaries that are released weekly and AD-FREE podcasts.

Le 23 juillet 1945, après quatre années de collaboration, Philippe Pétain, l'homme à la tête du régime de Vichy, se retrouve sur le banc des accusés. Pendant trois semaines d'audience, il doit répondre de ses actes et sa collaboration avec l'ennemi.Ce procès est sans doute le plus important de l'histoire et pourtant il est peu présent dans la mémoire nationale. Peut-être, parce que ce n'est pas seulement Pétain qui fût jugé à l'été 1945 mais la France collaborationniste elle-même.

What a week it was for the sport of boxing. It had a bit of everything that we've come to expect in this incredible sport. From masterful showings by Naoya Inoue and Canelo Alvarez to Ryan Garcia failing a drug test after sucking on some tree bark capsules, it certainly gave us plenty to talk about. The performances of Canelo and Inoue take centre stage following their respective victories over Jaime Munguia and Luis Nery. Both were impressive for different reasons. Garcia's failed test(s) reminded us not to get too giddy with the state of boxing today. We dip into that story for about as long as we can stand it. There's the latest Vasily Lomachenko fight to preview – George Kambosos surely has no chance, right? - and in This Week In History we relive the violence that occurred when Julian Jackson and Gerald McClellan had a memorable ‘who can hit the hardest' competition back in 1993. Thank you all for your comments, reviews and support. Please keep them coming! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

DID Richardson Hitchins get lucky in Las Vegas last week? Certainly, one judge turned in a score that was unfathomable which again begs the question: What was the judge watching? In turn, one is left to ponder the various vantage points when watching a fight. Whether from the ring apron, amongst the crowd or at home on TV.We pay tribute to John Westgarth, look ahead to a quality main event in Manchester between Jordan Gill and Zelfa Barrett and - in This Week - look back on the outlandish power of Julian Jackson.Leave us a review and spread the good word of The Opening Bell.

Vous aimez notre peau de caste ? Soutenez-nous ! https://www.lenouvelespritpublic.fr/abonnement Une émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée au studio l'Arrière-boutique le 2 février 2024. Avec cette semaine : Julian Jackson, historien britannique, spécialiste de l'histoire de France du XXème siècle. Nicolas Baverez, essayiste et avocat. Michel Winock, historien et écrivain. LE PROCÈS PÉTAIN Julian Jackson vous êtes historien, spécialiste du XXe siècle de l'histoire de France. Après un ouvrage sur l'occupation et une biographie de Charles de Gaulle que nous avions saluée ici même, vous publiez France on Trial : The Case of Marshal Pétain,publié au Seuil fin janvier dans une traduction titrée Le Procès Pétain et sous-titrée Vichy face à ses juges. « On peut revisiter le procès de Pétain sans vouloir le refaire, écrivez-vous dans votre introduction. L'exercice permet d'observer les Français de 1945 en train de débattre à chaud de leur histoire. » Comme le suggère le sous-titre de votre livre, ce n'est pas seulement le Maréchal qui est jugé. « Nous serions des hypocrites, écrit Mauriac, si, avant de mêler nos voix à toutes celles qui l'accusent, chacun de nous ne se demandait : qu'ai-je dit, qu'ai-je écrit ou pensé au moment de Munich ? De quel cœur ai-je accueilli l'armistice ? [...] Ne reculons pas devant cette pensée qu'une part de nous‐même fut peut‐être complice, à certaines heures, du vieillard foudroyé. » C'est, au fond, ce qui rend ce procès unique : les Français jugeaient le héros de la Grande Guerre qu'ils avaient presque accueilli avec soulagement (le « lâche soulagement » qu'éprouvait Blum au moment de Munich ?) : « Si un référendum s'était tenu en juin 1940 pour confirmer l'arrivée de Pétain à la présidence du Conseil, je pense que 95 % des Français auraient voté en sa faveur », écrivez-vous. Lorsqu'elle se réunit dans une certaine précipitation la Haute Cour de justice, composée de trois magistrats professionnels et de 24 jurés (12 résistants et 12 parlementaires), se réunit pour juger de la conduite du chef de Vichy, elle peine à déterminer de quoi Pétain doit répondre. Pour de Gaulle, le crime était l'armistice ; Raymond Aron ne condamnait Pétain qu'à partir de novembre 1942, lorsqu'il était resté en France alors que les Allemands bafouaient l'armistice et franchissaient la ligne de démarcation ; Simone Weil, quant à elle, considérait l'armistice comme un acte de lâcheté collective qui ne pouvait être imputé à Pétain seul. Les débats qui se déroulent pendant les trois semaines du procès ne règlent pas cette question. Vous décrivez toutes les étapes du procès, de l'interrogation du prisonnier jusqu'au délibéré qui condamne Pétain à mort, à l'indignité nationale, et à la confiscation de ses biens, condamnation tempérée par une demande de non-exécution pour « tenir compte du grand âge de l'accusé ». Le général de Gaulle, exaucera ce vœu. La Haute cour savait qu'il ne pouvait en aller autrement. Au lendemain du procès, Mauriac écrit : « Un procès comme celui‐là n'est jamais clos et ne finira jamais d'être plaidé. » Dans la troisième partie de votre livre intitulée « ce passé qui ne passe vraiment pas », vous montrez qu'il avait raison, et vous concluez : « Si le dossier Pétain est clos, le pétainisme n'est pas mort. » Il me semble que c'est en constatant cette permanence du pétainisme, sa présence dans le débat public en 2022 plus de soixante dis-ans après la mort du Maréchal et plus de quatre-vingts ans après son accession au pouvoir que vous avez en quelque sorte remonté le courant à la recherche des raisons et du contenu de cette permanence jusqu'à en arriver à ce procès ni fait ni à faire. Est-ce bien votre démarche ?Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.

Following its liberation in 1944, France began a reckoning with its years of defeat, occupation and collaboration with Nazi Germany. On trial was Marshal Philippe Pétain, the decorated World War I hero and onetime head of the collaborationist regime known as Vichy France. Speaking to Danny Bird, Julian Jackson discusses the role the trial played in the nation's attempt to reconcile itself with this controversial chapter in its history. (Ad) Julian Jackson is the author of France on Trial: The Case of Marshal Pétain (Allen Lane, 2023).

The Hall of Famer from the Virgin Islands, Julian Jackson is undoubtedly one of the biggest punchers the sport has seen. Jackson knocked out 49 of 55 opponents, creating one of the sport's great highlight reels along the way. He was a Don King stalwart, but some of the big fights Jackson wanted, against the likes of Roy Jones and James Toney, failed to materialise, but Jackson had two violent battles with Gerald McClellan, a shootout with Mike McCallum, annihilated Buster Drayton, Dennis Milton, Terry Norris and infamously blew Herol Graham away with a shocking knockout when behind on the cards and blinded in one eye. Jackson talks about his journey, which was shaped by an alcoholic mother, to being a father, growing up rough, missing out on the boycotted Olympics of 1980 and his sensational ride through the sport and into the International Boxing Hall of Fame.
Julian Jackson is an Emeritus Professor of Modern French History at Queen Mary at the University of London. Julian is one of the preeminent scholars focused on Vichy France. He has written extensively about France and the second world war and has published an important biography of Charles de Gaulle.

There was a time when French people put up picture of Marshal Philippe Petain on their walls. He is a figure of immeasurable stature to the country of France. Victor of Verdun, a one-time minister of war, and finally, a traitor to his country. Or was he? Did Petain allow the stain of collaboration to tarnish his reputation, or did he use his figure to guard the French people from worse Nazi atrocities during the Vichy era? The answer to those questions would divide France in the years following World War II. The trial of Petain, which took place during a humid July in 1945, would leave some venerating the figure of Petain while others looked upon him as betrayer of the French people. Professor Julian Jackson, is professor emeritus of history with Queen Mary University of London. His latest work is France on Trial: The Case of Marshal Pétain published by Harvard University Press in 2023, covers the political trial of Marshal Petain for treason. Dr. Jackson has authored an award-winning biography of Charles de Gaulle and other works on the history of modern France including his next work an exploration of the life of Andre Gide.

After days of gruelling talks which went into overtime, more than 100 countries have agreed on a treaty to protect the high seas. The legally binding pact, 15 years in the making, is crucial to an earlier pledge to safeguard a third of the world's land and sea by the end of the decade. Only one percent of waters beyond national boundaries are currently protected. US public policy group The Pew Charitable Trust senior manager Julian Jackson was at the UN talks in New York. He spoke to Corin Dann.
What I learned from reading Ralph Lauren: The Man Behind the Mystique by Jeffrey Trachtenberg.This episode is brought to you by: Tiny: Tiny is the easiest way to sell your business. Quick and straightforward exits for Founders.----Follow one of my favorite podcasts Invest Like The Best and listen to episode 311 John Fio — Creating Magic for Consumers, episode 307 Jeremiah Lowin: Explaining the New AI Paradigm, and episode 293 The Business of Gaming. [2:01] When I lumped him together with a handful of other designers during casual conversation, he snapped: “Don't put me with those designers. My business is not compared to anybody else's."[3:00] In practice Ralph Lauren is a tough, intensely ambitious businessman.[3:00] Ralph has always possessed immense self-confidence; it is central to his character, an asset as valuable as his sense of color, fabric, style.[4:00] Coco Chanel: The Legend and the Life by Justine Picardie. (Founders #199)[7:00] Few outsiders understood fully how lucrative the licensing business had become. Ralph would have been a successful designer in his own right. However, he would never have qualified as one of the world's richest men without licensees willing to pay him 5 to 7 percent of sales.[7:00] His privately held fashion empire was on the brink of bankruptcy. Geffen surmised that the company should be transformed from a manufacturing firm to a design, marketing, and licensing company. "You guys stink at manufacturing," he said. "You need to get out of that business." Instead, Geffen continued, the company needed to focus on what it really knew: how to design and market the Calvin Klein brand name. — The Operator: David Geffen Builds, Buys, and Sells The New Hollywood by Tom King[14:00] When my customers come to me, they like to cross the threshold of some magic place; they feel a satisfaction that is perhaps a trace vulgar but that delights them: they are privileged characters who are incorporated into our legend. For them this is a far greater pleasure than ordering another suit.” —Coco Chanel, 1935[16:00] What he lacked in experience he compensated it for an energy and enthusiasm.[17:00] Differentiation is survival. — Jeff Bezos Jeff Bezos' Shareholder Letters (Founders #282)[19:00] Mediocrity is always invisible until passion shows up and exposes it.[22:00] From the beginning I've been aware of the need to sell everybody. — Becoming Trader Joe: How I Did Business My Way and Still Beat the Big Guys by Joe Coulombe. (Founders #188)[26:00] Difference for the sake of it. In everything. Because it must be better. From the moment the idea strikes, to the running of the business. Difference, and retention of total control. — Against The Odds: An Autobiography by James Dyson (Founders #200)[28:00] Made in Japan: Akio Morita and Sony by Akio Morita. (Founders #102)[32:00] Intransigence is my only weapon. — Charles de Gaulle by Julian Jackson. (Founders #224)[41:00] It's torture being a partner to somebody you don't want to be a partner with.[45:00] On a Thursday night he wins an award for best men's wear designer. The next day he could not meet his payroll.[49:00] When bills come due, only cash is legal tender. Don't leave home without it. — The Essays of Warren Buffett by Warren Buffett and Lawrence Cunningham. (Founders #227)[54:00] You can make a lot of different mistakes and still recover if you run an efficient operation. Or you can be brilliant and still go out of business if you're too inefficient. — Sam Walton: Made In America by Sam Walton.[55:00] The thing that set Ralph apart was his single-mindedness of purpose. Everybody else moved from place to place, from trend to trend. He wasn't trendy. He stayed with it. It's the single most important thing about him. To this day there are people walking around saying Ralph Lauren isn't that special, I could have done it. It's the weirdest thing. They couldn't be more wrong. Ralph is the most special guy in the apparel business.[55:00] Graham Duncan on the Tim Ferriss Show----Subscribe to listen to Founders Premium — Subscribers ask me questions directly which I answer in Ask Me Anything (AMA) episodes ----Join my free email newsletter to get my top 10 highlights from every book----I use Readwise to organize and remember everything I read.

Connaissez-vous notre site ? www.lenouvelespritpublic.frUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée au studio l'Arrière-boutique le 15 novembre 2019.Avec cette semaine :Julian Jackson, historien britannique et biographe du général de Gaulle.Nicolas Baverez, essayiste et avocat.François Bujon de l'Estang, ambassadeur de France.Michaela Wiegel, correspondante à Paris de la Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.« DE GAULLE » PAR JULIAN JACKSONJ'ai trouvé dans les mémoires du diplomate et journaliste libanais Salah Stétié cette appréciation sur le commandant de Gaulle, rédigée par le général de Bigault du Granrut lorsque de Gaulle quitta son poste au Liban : "Depuis deux ans que je peux l'apprécier dans les fonctions de Chef du 3ème Bureau de mon état-major, je n'ai cessé d'éprouver pour l'ensemble des qualités intellectuelles et morales qu'il possède une estime mêlée d'admiration. Sur la valeur guerrière je n'ai pas besoin d'appuyer, ses blessures, le reste de ses citations se passent de commentaires. J'insiste sur les mérites hors pair de ce soldat qui développe par un travail constant les qualités qu'il a conscience de posséder. Il sait d'ailleurs les faire apprécier avec discrétion, gardant en toutes circonstances une attitude réservée, empreinte d'une correction toute militaire. Beau soldat, ce sera un beau chef, qu'il y a intérêt pour le bien de son armée et de toute l'armée à pousser rapidement aux hautes situations où il donnera sa pleine mesure et ne décevra pas."2020 marquera un triple anniversaire : les 130 ans de la naissance de Charles de Gaulle, les 50 ans de sa disparition et les 80 ans de l'appel du 18 juin. Pour nous y préparer, c'est le citoyen d'un pays avec lequel le général a entretenu des rapports pour le moins contrastés, la Grande Bretagne. Professeur Julian Jackson, vous enseignez à Queen Mary, University of London, vous êtesun spécialiste de l'histoire de la France au XXe siècle. On vous doit notamment, « La France sous l'occupation 1940-1944 » aux éditions Flammarion et vouspubliez aux éditions du Seuil « De Gaulle. Une certaine idée de la France ouvrage salué par la critique britannique, américaine et française et couronné du Duff Cooper Prize.» Pour cette biographie, vous vous êtes appuyé sur de nombreux fonds documentaires, lettres, et livres, et sur les archives récemment ouvertes de la présidence de la Ve République, ainsi que de celles de Michel Debré.La personnalité rugueuse du Général constitue une donnée essentielle pour comprendre un itinéraire parfois chaotique. Courageux, déterminé, mais aussi colérique et ingrat, Charles de Gaulle parait un homme pétri de contradictions : « un soldat qui passa le plus clair de sa carrière à critiquer l'armée ; un conservateur qui s'exprimait souvent comme un révolutionnaire ; un homme de passion incapable, ou presque, d'exprimer des émotions » Si le général de Gaulle s'affirmait guidé par « une certaine idée de la France », vous montrez que cette idée était sujette à d'importantes variations selon une dialectique toute bergsonienne qui cherche « à établir l'importance de l'intuition par rapport à l'intelligence analytique, de l'élan vital contre la doctrine figée ».Vous pouvez consulter notre politique de confidentialité sur https://art19.com/privacy ainsi que la notice de confidentialité de la Californie sur https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Veteran trainer Aaron Snowell has worked with many Don King fighters over the years. But he is not just a King lieutenant. He grew up in Pottsville, just down the road from Muhammad Ali's Deer Lake training camp and he was around The Greatest for the best part of a decade. As a coach, who was in the corner the night Mike Tyson was stunned by Buster Dougles, and when Frankie Randall shocked Julio Cesar Chavez. He also worked with the likes of Julian Jackson, Tim Austin and Tim Witherspoon. Snowball's story is an important one on many levels, not least because he presents a very different side of Mike Tyson in the late 1980s and early 1990s from the one were are accustomed to seeing.
