SUMMARY:Venue Change! Morris French Disc Group - 6pm
DESCRIPTION:PLEASE NOTE CHANGE OF VENUE!!!!  The Morris area French Discussion group will meet AT THE LITCHFIELD OLIVER WOLCOTT on Thursday\, January 19 starting at 6:00 pm at the offices of Harvest Moon Timber Frame\, LLC located at 198 East Street* in Morris (see Google Map below.)  Led by a French native\, previous discussion subjects have featured le Ricard\, l’attentat à Nice\, Truffaut interviews of Alfred Hitchcock\, les parapluies de Cherbourg\, the origin of Le Père Noël\, Bic pens\, Roquefort cheese\, Le Beaujolais Nouveau…. \nWhether you are just learning French or are an advanced speaker\, you are welcome to join. You will have an opportunity to learn\, practice\, and improve your French language skills at these informal meetings. Due to the shorter time\, this month’s discussion will be short and informal. \n\nOur group will then move to listen to the special Author’s Talk at 7:00pm (see details below) \nLooking for The Stranger:\nAlbert Camus & the Life of a Literary Classic\nwith Author Alice Kaplan\nClick Here to Register \nAlbert Camus’s L’Etranger has been a best-seller for so long that we forget it was ever anything else. But literary classics are made\, not born: though The Stranger was a book very few readers understood or appreciated when it was published in 1942\, it became a household name – a regular on lists of the great books of the 20th century. \nAlice Kaplan delved into publishers’ archives to uncover a key episode in L’Etranger’s career:  the first translation of the French novel into English\, in the United States and in England\, four years after its publication in 1946\, when the war in Europe had been over for only a year. This is a tale of two cities\, involving an author\, his publishers\, his translator\, and his readers and reviewers. Knowledge of French is welcome but absolutely not required! \nAlice Kaplan\, John M. Musser Professor of French at Yale University\, is a specialist of 20th century France. She works at the intersection of literature and history\, using a method that allies archivalresearch with textual analysis. A literary translator\, Kaplan serves on the newly created advisory board of the National Book Foundation’s study of the state of translation in the United States. She is a former Guggenheim Fellow\, a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences\, and a recipient of the French Légion d’Honneur as well the Los Angeles Times Book Prize in History for The Collaborator and the Henry Adams Prize for The Interpreter. \nREGISTRATION IS REQUIRED\nA Wine & Cheese Reception Will Follow\nThe Hickory Stick Bookshop will provide books for sale & signing. \n\nAFNWCT Members attend for free; A suggested donation of $5 is requested from others.

SUMMARY:Café Conversation @ 10h30
DESCRIPTION:Café Conversation is a great way to practice\, improve and/or help you feel more comfortable speaking French with friendly francophones and francophiles who enjoy speaking French in an informal setting.  The group meets every other Saturday from 10:30 to 12:30 (be sure to check this calendar often). Have a cup of coffee and meet/greet fellow members for the first half hour or so with some small talk – en français (it’s all about practicing!) and then prepare to tackle the subject of the day. \nAn article in French (often with a side-by-side English translation) will be read out loud en français by the participants to practice proper pronounciation and to check understanding of the French vocabulary and grammar. The article will then be used to spark the conversation. \nAll levels of French are welcome. AFNWCT members attend free and a $5 suggested donation is kindly requested from all others. \nThose with a question\, or if you wish to propose a certain topic or lead one of the discussions should contact Brigitte: cafe@afnwct.org \nThis group meets at the AF Center located at 1 Pomperaug Office Park\, Suite 301 in Southbury. See map below.

SUMMARY:Groupe de Lecture - 6:30pm
DESCRIPTION:Meeting on the first Thursday of each month\, from 6:30 to 8:30 pm\, this group has a lot of fun sipping wine\, tasting cheese and crackers and taking turns reading out loud in French. Enjoy hearing and sharing the richness of the French language. \nJanuary’s meeting is at the winter location : our AF Center in Southbury. So far\, the weather forecast is good\, with no precipitation anticipated 🙂 \nThe title of the current selection is “Lutetia” by Pierre Assouline and the group will continue their reading starting on page 74 at the paragraph that begins: “Cet homme là-bas\, par example.” \nLutetia (2005) raconte une histoire d’amour entre le détective du Lutetia et une amie d’enfance\, mais surtout une histoire de la France de 1938 à 1945 à travers l’histoire de l’Hôtel Lutetia qui a\, durant toute l’Occupation\, servi de siège à l’Abwehr (les services secrets de l’état-major allemand) puis\, à la Libération\, de lieu d’accueil des déportés et rapatriés. \nDescription\nTapi dans les recoins les plus secrets du Lutetia\, un homme voit l’Europe s’enfoncer dans la guerre mondiale. Édouard Kiefer\, Alsacien\, ancien flic des RG. Détective chargé de la sécurité de l’hôtel et de ses clients. Discret et intouchable\, nul ne sait ce qu’il pense. Dans un Paris vaincu\, occupé\, humilié\, aux heures les plus sombres de la collaboration\, cet homme\, pourtant\, est hanté par une question : jusqu’où peut-on aller sans trahir sa conscience ? De 1938 à 1945\, l’hôtel Lutetia – l’unique palace de la rive gauche – partage le destin de la France. Entre ses murs se succèdent\, en effet\, exilés\, écrivains et artistes\, puis officiers nazis et trafiquants du marché noir\, pour laisser place enfin à la cohorte des déportés de retour des camps. En accordant précision biographique et souffle romanesque\, Pierre Assouline redonne vie à la légende perdue du grand hôtel\, avec un art du clair-obscur qui convient mieux que tout autre au mythique Lutetia… \n \nUne revue du livre:\n“I loved this book; it is long; but every page contains a drop of history which we can view through the prism of the Hotel Lutetia. While not exactly a history book\, I suppose one could call it a “roman cle” since most of the characters and certainly the principal events described are non-fictional. A beautifully written account of the intrigues (and tragedies) of the German occupation. Think of “Remains of the Day” only this is far more poignant and powerful since the Hotel was the headquarters for the Nationalist Socialist Intelligence Agency and the action unfolds in the heart of Nazi-occupied Paris. Very powerful narrative and an unexpected climax approaching the end of the novel. Please read it. It won’t disappoint.”\n\nIf you have any questions\, please let Amanda know at lecture@afnwct.org.\n\nAFNWCT Members attend for free; A suggested donation of $5 is requested from others. \nQuestions or comments?

Brief discussions will be held between films to give time to the audience to give their reaction and ask questions. \nThe family has been the core of European society and the vital energy that moves countries and changes almost every aspect of life\, from economics\, to politics\, to arts. The Seventh Eurochannel Short Films Tour will capture this familiar spirit and treat the viewers and cinema lovers with stories about families\, their challenges and greatest accomplishments. The nuclear European family traditionally consisted of a married father and mother with several children\, but today this is only one option among many. Despite the modern day variances\, Europeans continue to value family ahead of friends\, work\, leisure time\, politics and religion as the most important element in their lives. That is why\, this edition of the Eurochannel Short Films Tour will pay homage to its crucial importance. \nALL PROGRAMS ARE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC WITH A SUGGESTED DONATION OF $5.

SUMMARY:Groupe de Lecture - 6:30pm
DESCRIPTION:Meeting on the first Thursday of each month\, from 6:30 to 8:30 pm\, this group has a lot of fun sipping wine\, tasting cheese and crackers and taking turns reading out loud in French. Enjoy hearing and sharing the richness of the French language. \nDecember’s meeting is on the 1st meeting at the winter location at our AF Center in Southbury. \nThe title of our selection is “Lutetia” by Pierre Assouline. \nLutetia (2005) raconte une histoire d’amour entre le détective du Lutetia et une amie d’enfance\, mais surtout une histoire de la France de 1938 à 1945 à travers l’histoire de l’Hôtel Lutetia qui a\, durant toute l’Occupation\, servi de siège à l’Abwehr (les services secrets de l’état-major allemand) puis\, à la Libération\, de lieu d’accueil des déportés et rapatriés. \nDescription\nTapi dans les recoins les plus secrets du Lutetia\, un homme voit l’Europe s’enfoncer dans la guerre mondiale. Édouard Kiefer\, Alsacien\, ancien flic des RG. Détective chargé de la sécurité de l’hôtel et de ses clients. Discret et intouchable\, nul ne sait ce qu’il pense. Dans un Paris vaincu\, occupé\, humilié\, aux heures les plus sombres de la collaboration\, cet homme\, pourtant\, est hanté par une question : jusqu’où peut-on aller sans trahir sa conscience ? De 1938 à 1945\, l’hôtel Lutetia – l’unique palace de la rive gauche – partage le destin de la France. Entre ses murs se succèdent\, en effet\, exilés\, écrivains et artistes\, puis officiers nazis et trafiquants du marché noir\, pour laisser place enfin à la cohorte des déportés de retour des camps. En accordant précision biographique et souffle romanesque\, Pierre Assouline redonne vie à la légende perdue du grand hôtel\, avec un art du clair-obscur qui convient mieux que tout autre au mythique Lutetia… \n \nUne revue du livre:\n“I loved this book; it is long; but every page contains a drop of history which we can view through the prism of the Hotel Lutetia. While not exactly a history book\, I suppose one could call it a “roman cle” since most of the characters and certainly the principal events described are non-fictional. A beautifully written account of the intrigues (and tragedies) of the German occupation. Think of “Remains of the Day” only this is far more poignant and powerful since the Hotel was the headquarters for the Nationalist Socialist Intelligence Agency and the action unfolds in the heart of Nazi-occupied Paris. Very powerful narrative and an unexpected climax approaching the end of the novel. Please read it. It won’t disappoint.”\n\nIf you have any questions\, please let Amanda know at lecture@afnwct.org.\n\nAFNWCT Members attend for free; A suggested donation of $5 is requested from others. \nQuestions or comments? Contact Amanda: lecture@afnwct.org \n

SUMMARY:Café Conversation @ 10h30
DESCRIPTION:Café Conversation is a great way to practice\, improve and/or help you feel more comfortable speaking French with friendly francophones and francophiles who enjoy speaking French in an informal setting.  The group meets every other Saturday from 10:30 to 12:30 (be sure to check this calendar often). Have a cup of coffee and meet/greet fellow members for the first half hour or so with some small talk – en français (it’s all about practicing!) and then prepare to tackle the subject of the day. \nAn article in French (often with a side-by-side English translation) will be read out loud en français by the participants to practice proper pronounciation and to check understanding of the French vocabulary and grammar. The article will then be used to spark the conversation. \nAll levels of French are welcome. AFNWCT members attend free and a $5 suggested donation is kindly requested from all others. \nThose with a question\, or if you wish to propose a certain topic or lead one of the discussions should contact Brigitte: cafe@afnwct.org \nThis group meets at the AF Center located at 1 Pomperaug Office Park\, Suite 301 in Southbury. See map below.
