Au début du XIXe siècle, Mary et Charles Lamb entreprirent d'adapter sous forme de contes l'ensemble des tragédies et des comédies de William Shakespeare. Le succès immédiat que connut ce recueil étonna les auteurs, qui l'avaient écrit en hommage au génie du dramaturge élisabéthain, et dans le but d'encourager les jeunes lecteurs à lire ses chefs-d'oeuvre, à développer leur imagination et à renforcer leur vertu. Aujourd'hui encore, toutes les jeunes filles et tous les jeunes garçons d'Outre-Manche découvrent grâce à ces contes pleins de magie, de poésie, de mort, de folie, d'amour et de rire les célèbres héros shakespeariens, qu'ils soient tragiques comme Hamlet, Ophélie, Othello, Desdémone, Roméo et Juliette, ou drôles et merveilleux comme Ariel, Puck, Obéron ou Titania. Les Contes de Shakespeare n'avaient pas été traduits intégralement depuis plus de cent cinquante ans. Cette nouvelle version française restitue la langue magnifique, aussi baroque que romantique, qui caractérise cette rareté littéraire devenue un classique en Angleterre.
This book examines leading Supreme Court decisions involving the powers of the Court, the president, and Congress, as well as cases addressing American federalism and Americans' economic rights.

Over 100 of the Supreme Court's most significant rulings, old and new, are covered and clarified in this volume to provide an objective, reliable, and valuable resource for students, academics, legal professionals, and the general public alike.

This title brings together seven presidential politics scholars to address the Trump presidency and the current functioning of American democracy based on recent provocative research. These studies focus on several important topics, including presidential leadership theory and the Trump presidency, examining its mistruths, analyzing its record in the lower federal courts, probing its use of the pardon power, debating whether it requires an entirely new United States constitution to prevent future authoritarian threats, and assessing Trump's contribution to presidential power research. Taken together, these chapters represent a snapshot view of the early Trump presidency and its implications for US politics moving forward.
