{"product_id":"les-eaux-territoriales-eugene-nicole-1","title":"Used Book – Les Eaux territoriales, Eugène Nicole","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1992, following a long-standing dispute between France and Canada regarding the delimitation of Saint-Pierre and Miquelon's territorial waters, an international arbitration tribunal sitting in New York delivered a verdict that restricted the traditional fishing rights and the \"continental shelf\" of the French archipelago. It was only granted a narrow strip of sea (nicknamed the \"stovepipe\") which endangered its survival.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis threat looms from the very beginning of the book in July 1988 when the author and narrator, returning to Saint-Pierre for his father's funeral, brought with him the first volume of L'Œuvre des mers which was to be published in mainland France a few weeks later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEncompassing two other stays in the archipelago (in 1995 for the filming of a movie and in 2005 for the funeral of his younger brother) as well as a posthumous diary written by Monsieur, the former schoolteacher who fancied himself Jacques Cartier, Les Eaux territoriales extends L'Œuvre des mers like a Supplement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChronologically grafted onto the previous volumes, but forming a whole in itself, Les Eaux territoriales incorporates into the narrative episodes related to the reception of L'Œuvre des mers and its genesis, which has become a fertile layer of memories. Literary allusions proliferate, which the narrator seems to use as a shield in the territory of his childhood, which he recognizes less and less.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e9782823601107\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Olivier","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51144354201941,"sku":"9782823601107","price":7.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0943\/9395\/8741\/files\/9782823601107.jpg?v=1753190864","url":"https:\/\/stanoccasion.com\/en\/products\/les-eaux-territoriales-eugene-nicole-1","provider":"stan'occasion","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
