Malerische Abgründe - Dupin ermittelt auf der traumhaften Belle-Île. Die Hitzewelle hat in diesem August sogar die Bretagne fest im Griff, keine Aussicht auf Abkühlung für Kommissar Dupin.

"The Fables" of Jean de La Fontaine were issued in several volumes from 1668 to 1694. They are classics of French literature. "The Fables" supply delights to three different ages: the child rejoices in the freshness and vividness of the story, the eager student of literature in the consummate art with which it is told, the experienced man of the world in the subtle reflections on character and life which it conveys. "The Fables" were regarded as providing an excellent education in morals for children, and the first edition was dedicated to the six-year old Dauphin, the Eldest Son of the King.

Beaucoup pourront s'étonner de ce qu'on parle ici d'humanisme. [ ... ] Nous entendons par existentialisme une doctrine qui rend la vie humaine possible et qui, par ailleurs, déclare que toute vérité et toute action impliquent un milieu et une subjectivité humaine. [ ... ] L'existentialisme n'est pas autre chose qu'un effort pour tirer toutes les conséquences d'une position athée cohérente. Il ne cherche pas du tout à plonger l'homme dans le désespoir.
