Fin août, je suis remonté vers le Nord en passant par l'Auvergne et Vichel. Pour finir, une dernière église perchée, à Saint-Jean-Saint-Gervais. Ici, c'est ce qu'en Auvergne, on appelle une ganivelle, un auvent couvert avec des bancs en pierre pour discuter après l'office...
La dernière photo : à Issoire, une fondue "yssoirienne" (avant Issoire s'écrivait Yssoire) aux girolles avec charcuterie auvergnate et pommes de terre rissolées, dans le resto "Le Français".

“Now, Bishop Gervais so cherished Hugh, whom he had held on the baptismal font, that he sought for him the hand of the noblest lady Bertha, formerly wife of Alan, Count of Brittany.” This Alain had died in the year 1040. He had had a son from Bertha, the brave Conan, who was poisoned under the walls of Château-Gontier. Bertha was the daughter of Odo II, Count of Blois. "This greatly displeased Count Geoffrey," adds the annalist, "as the event proved. Hugh went with his men-at-arms to Bertha; Geoffrey ran to the Château-du-Loir and set it on fire. "In a charter that we have already mentioned (1), we find some details about the siege of the Château-du-Loir. Geoffrey did not seize it, but he ravaged the streets of the square, the village that surrounded it, and even a church founded in honor of Saint Guingalois, where Gervais had recently established canons. The soldiers of the Count of Anjou dispersed them. These actions,” we read in our manuscript, "now rendered the count to the bishop and the bishop to the count odious to each other. Geoffrey, therefore, seeing that, by the advice of Gervais, who wanted to harm and lose him, Count Hugh had taken a very powerful woman, and carrying Judas in his heart, called the bishop near him, in order to treacherously surprise him. Having seized him, he had him thrown into prison and held him in irons for seven years, hoping to thus make himself master of the Château-du-Loir. But it was of no use to him, because the castle was well defended by the garrison. While these things were going on, Count Hugh died, the bishop Gervais being still a prisoner. This death greatly afflicted the bishop and greatly delighted the Count of Anjou.” Count Geoffrey ruled the province for ten years. Indeed, the inhabitants of Le Mans having driven out the grieving widow of Hugh with her children through one of the gates of the city, had Count Geoffrey enter their walls full of joy.
- Jean-Barthélemy Hauréau, Histoire Littéraire du Maine: Tome 5

What did Lannes enjoy doing when he was in Lectoure? I think he had vineyards?
He had lots and lots of vineyards, almost all of them rented out to family and personal friends, and other agricultural lands also rented out. So there were all sorts of opportunities to play in the dirt if he was so inclined--and he often was.
Jean-Boy would visit old friends and invite them to his house, the former bishops' palace attached to the Cathedral of Saint-Gervais that he bought after the First Italian Campaign--not all that elegant, though: the floor tiles were worn, the wooden floors squeaked, and the plaster had damp patches in a few of the rooms. Still, he loved it here much better than any of his more upscale Paris properties. He'd also spend time at the former abbey at Bouillas, but usually reserved for gatherings too rowdy for the town to see and hear.
So, nothing exciting for many folks, but exactly what Jean-Boy wanted to do. If you recall, I posted a few pages on this from my draft novel about a year ago, perhaps.

jeudi 24 octobre 2024 3:12 a.m. Break. 18:30:19
Je savais que la peau de mon visage devait luire, je l’avais vu dans la bible, j’avais quand même vu la sainte vierge, mais je n’en faisais pas de cas. Ça doit être un idéal, il en a plusieurs, ce doit être un des ses idéaux. Les patients en santé mentale n’ont pas d’idéals. Vous pouvez vous imaginer comment je me sentais persécuté. Le largactil s’attaque aux articulations hen, ma mère faisait son hum et ça me bloquait dans ce que j’étais en train de faire. Sunshine c’est la réalisation d’un idéal. Pourvu qu’on voie qu’elle passe à travers un barreau.
7:28 a.m. C’est ça, ce sont des moqueurs, ils rient de moi parce que je suis bon. Ils se moquaient de moi parce que je suis niaiseux, et ils entravaient mes mouvements. Maintenant c’est fini, ils continuent à se moquer, mais ils ne sont plus capables d’entraver mes mouvements depuis que j’ai été atteint par un rayon désintégrateur des extraterrestres je crois. Pour que ça arrête, il aurait fallu que je tu quelqu’un (pour ne pas rester niaiseux) parce qu’ils disent que je suis niaiseux. Alors la police m’aurait arrêté, m’aurait plaqué à terre et m’aurait attaché les mains dans le dos. C’est ce que tu veux. En effet, ils savent que j’aime ça me faire attacher, et j’ai refusé un contrat qu’ils m’ont offert à Montréal pour devenir tueur à gages et me faire attacher par Yvon et Odette. Autrement dit, ils ne t’attacheront jamais. Le Ciusss de la Capitale. J’ai vu le Seigneur faire la mou, il doit y avoir quelqu’un au-dessus de lui. Comme ils ont tué Bachir Gémayel, le président du Liban. Jean Chrétien a refusé de me recevoir en 1982, mais Bachir m’a reçu dans son bureau.
Croyez-le ou non, Gervais se souvient du temps où il fumait et de ses cendriers.
Babylone a délivré Jéricho de la ville de Jérusalem, ils n’ont rien fait de mal. Je n’ai pas un mot à dire contre Babylone. Les paroles du commandant de la garde des Chaldéens à Jérémie sont probablement authentiques. Jr 40, 2. Le commandant de la garde prit donc Jérémie et lui dit : « Yahvé, ton Dieu, avait prédit ce malheur pour ce pays et il l’a amené. Yahvé a agi selon ses menaces. C’est que vous avez péché contre Yahvé sans écouter sa voix; alors ce malheur vous est arrivé. »
On parle tellement contre Babylone dans la bible. C’était tellement scandaleux quand Sédécias lui flattait la joue. Odette fumait toujours du haschisch avec moi, ils ont fait une grosse saisie de haschisch à Baie-Comeau, une cinquantaine de barils qu’ils ont jetés à la mer.
Ils me disaient qu’il fallait que je m’habille pour prendre des photos, vous comprenez. Alors j’ai pris une photo assez fortuite, une vidéo. Il est en ligne. C’est mon ordinateur qui a fait ça. Vu que j’avais pris des photos attaché sur le site des chroniques ils pensaient que j’allais recommencer. Yvon n’attache pas Odette, il est plus intelligent que ça, c’est la domestique qui l’attache.

How to walk the Tour des Combins, the best long-distance hike in the Alps
Tumblr media
For a different side of a classic, the Alps have no shortage of lesser-known walking trails and alternative hiking experiences, leading to towering peaks and gentle meadows. Along the way, pick up new skills, meet welcoming locals and form friendships to last a lifetime.
“We’ll never be as popular as the Tour du Mont Blanc, and we’d never expect to be,” says mountain instructor Melanie Müri, as steaming bowls of apple and celeriac soup are passed down the long, wooden table. “But there’s so much untapped potential in this landscape.” We’re in the dining room of Cabane de Chanrion, a mountain hut set at an altitude of 8,077 feet below snow-speckled summits and razor-edge arêtes, narrow rock ridges that separate valleys with fang-like pinnacles. The hut’s stripped-back, pale-wood interior makes showpieces of the oversized windows, beyond which butterflies dance among the blue gentian flowers and marmots whistle. It’s a scene of playfulness and stark stillness, all in one.
Melanie has cut to the heart of an uneasy conundrum. I’m on day three of a six-day loop from the small Swiss village of Bourg-St-Pierre following the Tour des Combins, a 63-mile trail circumnavigating the little-known Grand Combin massif — a glaciated mountain range in southwest Switzerland’s Valais canton, straddling the border with Italy. Like Melanie, many locals in this corner of the Alps are torn: they covet recognition yet fear its consequences. They want to share this region’s treasures but also cherish its quietness. It’s a contradiction as sharp as the towering peaks outside.
Some critics argue such balance has eluded Mont Blanc — which, at 4,800 metres, is western Europe’s highest peak — none more so than Jean-Marc Peillex, mayor of Saint-Gervais, a village nestled at its foot. He made local headlines last summer after threatening to sue two hurluberlus (fools) who slept at the summit, flouting a law that prohibits camping throughout the 7,800-acre Mont Blanc natural protection zone. It was set up in 2020 with the aim of safeguarding the local environment by regulating activities in the face of a visitor swell.

Fin août, je suis remonté vers le Nord en passant par l'Auvergne et Vichel. Pour finir, une dernière église perchée, à Saint-Jean-Saint-Gervais, autour de laquelle il n'y a nul village. Etrange...
L'ouverture entre la nef de la chapelle et la sacristie est assez mystérieuse quant à son rôle . Une dame là-bas m'a dit que la petite pièce aurait pu servir de prison. L'inscription signifie en gros (merci à cette même dame !) que par leur soin et leur travail, I.Redon et le prêtre de l'église ont fait cette chapelle (EN GROS.)

BIOGRAPHIE DE SIMON GOULART
Simon Goulart, né à Senlis le 20 octobre 1543 et mort à Genève le 3 février 1628, est un théologien calviniste et un humaniste français.
Goulart ��tudie le droit à Paris. Ayant embrassé la religion réformée, il se réfugie, en mars 1566, à Genève, où il est reçu ministre du culte. En 1570, il épouse Suzanne Picot, puis il est admis gratuitement à la bourgeoisie de Genève. En 1589, il est aumônier des troupes genevoises pendant la guerre contre la Savoie.
En 1595, il prêche contre Henri IV. Il succède à Théodore de Bèze à la charge de modérateur de la Compagnie des pasteurs, de 1607 à 1612.
En 1602, lors de l’Escalade, il est pasteur du temple de Saint-Gervais, quartier situé sur la rive droite de Genève. Ayant exhorté les habitants de ce quartier-ci à prêter main-forte à leurs voisins d'en-face, il restera lui sur la rive droite pour soutenir par la prière la défense de la cité. En 1603, il rédige le Vray discours de la miraculeuse délivrance envoyée de Dieu à la ville de Genève, le 12 jour de décembre 1602, récit de l'attaque savoyarde.
Cet humaniste traduit Plutarque et Xénophon. Il rédige un Trésor d'histoires admirables et mémorables de notre temps (Genève, 1620), des Mémoires historiques sur la Ligue.
En 1580, il traduit l’Histoire de Portugal d’Osorius et de Fernão Lopes de Castanheda. L’épître dédicatoire à Nicolas Pithou commence ainsi :
« MONSIEUR, Je pense bien que ceux qui nous conoissent trouveront estrange et mal seant de prime face, que j’aye mis la main à ceste histoire, pour la communiquer à nostre nation : et qu’ayant esté dédiée par Osorius à un Prince, je la vous presente maintenant. Quant à ce premier point, je ne nie pas que durant le temps employé à ce labeur je pouvoy vacquer à choses plus serieuses, mieux convenantes à mes estudes, et plus propres à ma vocation. »
L'ouvrage a été écrit au « bourg de Sainct Gervais, le vingtiesme jour d’Octobre M.D.LXXX. » Depuis 1571, en effet, il est installé dans cette paroisse de Saint-Gervais, à Genève.
En 1581, il donne un Commentaire alphabétique (Indice) de la Sepmaine de Guillaume du Bartas qui est publié dans une édition augmentée du poète gascon. En 1589, chez le même éditeur (Jacques Chouet, Genève), il publie à nouveau ce commentaire, enrichi de remarques supplémentaires. De son côté, le catholique Pantaléon Thévenin commente lui aussi ce vaste poète encyclopédique.
De 1576 à 1597, il édite des chansons spirituelles et des psaumes de divers compositeurs chez divers imprimeurs de Lyon, Heidelberg ou Genève. Les chansons sont des chansons profanes dont le texte a été contrefait, c'est-à-dire remplacé par un texte spirituel plus à même d'être chanté dans les maisons calvinistes, et le principal compositeur mis à profit sera Orlande de Lassus. Ce faisant, il adopte la même démarche que Jean Pasquier, dont les éditions l'ont précédé à La Rochelle. Ces éditions contrefaites se font sans autorisation du compositeur, en dépit des privilèges accordés à Roland de Lassus par les rois de France, ceux-ci ne s'appliquant pas à Genève.
Goulart annote aussi le Grand Miroir du Monde du poète protestant Joseph Duchesne sieur de la Violette (1593). Goulart est également l'auteur d'Imitations chrestiennes. Selon Olivier Pot, Goulart envisageait l'existence d'une Académie littéraire protestante.

Politique : dans la volonté de moderniser les installations de la commune de Saint-Gervais-les-Bains, en Haute-Savoie, le réseau Syane souhaite installer de nouveaux poteaux pour le déploiement de la fibre optique. Une politique inconcevable pour le maire, Jean-Marc Peillex, qui entend préserver la qualité de ses paysages.

Brickclub 4.6.2 “In Which Little Gavroche Takes Advantage of Napoleon The Great” Part 1
This chapter is full of the mythological motifs we learned from the beginning of the book.
The chapter title contrasts Gavroche’s littleness with Napoleon’s greatness--and we know by now that being a great man isn’t a good thing. It also recalls the first line of dialogue in this novel, Bienvenu’s exchange with Napoleon, where he says “You behold a good man and I a great man. Each of us may profit by it.” Of course, Napoleon is losing both these comparisons.
And then:
Petit-Gavroche, shivering gaily as always in his rags, was standing in apparent rapture in front of a wigmaker’s shop over l’Orme-Saint-Gervais way.
I’m not sure the wigs can actually be said to invoke Valjean, given that whatever his secret collection of wigs may be, we’ve never actually seen him wear one. But that “Gervais” sticks out, connecting Petit-Gavroche to Petit-Gervais, who here is being connected to sainthood.
There’s no particular Valjean figure robbing these children, there’s just absolutely every adult in Paris being vaguely annoyed at their existence and failing to give a shit.
Also I just looked up Saint Gervase (wikipedia: Gervasius and Protasius) and
They are the patron saints of Milan and of haymakers and are invoked for the discovery of thieves.
Well. THAT sure wasn’t an accident, but it sounds oddly at odds with this book’s ideas about theft. My best guess is that it's about Petit-Gervais’s role in Valjean’s realization of his own thieving.
Right now Gavroche is doing the thieving--or trying to, as he eyes a cake of barber’s soap he plans to steal and sell.
These recurrent scenes with Gavroche are starting to feel like fables, like an episode in the life of a familiar mythical figure, the way we saw a lot of with the bishop and occasionally with Madeleine. Gavroche feels like the bishop here, like this is just another a tale of our beloved little benevolent trickster god.
I think that feeling I’m getting has to do with the fact that this scene and Gavroche’s last scene  (the one where he was going to steal Mabeuf’s apples but instead gives him Jean Valjean’s wallet) have the same premise and plot: it’s been a few days since Gavroche has eaten, and he has a clever plan to rectify that, but someone even worse off is about to need him to give up his dinner for them. He feels like Coyote or Brer Rabbit--you don’t need to know what happened to him last week or last month specifically, because his narrative is not novelistic in that way. Hugo says “It’s Tuesday, and Gavroche hasn’t eaten since Friday, but he has a plan,” and we know we’ve heard a hundred stories like this before, and we settle in for a variation on a familiar theme.
And: I think it’s very, very important that the other character who gets that treatment most consistently is the bishop.
Of the two, Gavroche is the purer form of the trickster--and the more charitable. He’s loud and brash and larger than life, and his manners ape the bourgeoisie--but not for the reasons Valjean does. It’s purely to poke fun at the world he steals from to get by. He’s got a quick insult for everyone--except for the poor who need his help. He feels less like a twelve-year-old than a force of nature. It’s like meeting Tom Bombadil.
He meets the mômes and takes them in and begins to show them the ropes of surviving as gamins. And their plot is not divorced from time--Magnon was arrested today, and when they meet Gavroche, they’ve been wandering for two hours. I’m inclined to see a parallel in Valjean meeting the bishop in that: for the bishop, it was just another incident not specifically connected to other incidents in his life, but Valjean had just come from the bagne and had been traveling for days.
I suppose this has to do with dynamic vs. static characters: some characters need to change, and the story is about tracking their change, whereas other characters are larger than life already, and they can be counted on to be so no matter when or where you find them.
Just like Lesgle, Courfeyrac, and the Bishop, Gavroche asks no questions.
And he’s almost literally magic: he hasn’t eaten in several days, but when lost children are hungry, he can still dig a sou out of his pocket.
And then, in an apostrophe against Magnon but also Fantine, Valjean, the Thenardiers, Jeanne Valjean, Georges Pontmercy, Gillenormand, maybe everyone in this book who has a child, he says
“It's all the same, if I had any mômes, I would hug them tighter than this.”
Though, of course, he doesn’t manage to.
....And then we reach the elephant and there is SO MUCH SYMBOLISM to tackle that I’m going to leave the second half of the chapter for tomorrow.
