    Pourquoi les femmes se maquillent-elles ? Les réponses des intéressées sont souvent évasives : «Pour se sentir bien...» Pourraient-elles cesser de se farder ? «Non !» L'idée de ne plus se maquiller peut même être perçue comme une atteinte à l'identité.
    
    Dans un style élégant et lumineux, l'auteur nous plonge dans une histoire du maquillage qui démontre l'importance, depuis que l'être humain se civilise, du geste cosmétique. «S'arranger» est un art du compromis, de l'ouverture, un jeu bienveillant plutôt qu'un artifice trompeur. Derrière un rouge à lèvres, un mascara, il y a toute une manière d'être, plus nuancée, plus enchantée, moins violente que celle des hommes.

    Ludwig van Beethoven: The Life...

    Among all of history’s greatest musicians, few have been as admired or influential as Ludwig van Beethoven, whose name remains synonymous with composing. Works like his Fifth and Ninth symphonies remain instantly recognizable over 200 years after they were composed, and their sweeping and grandiose nature are made all the more amazing by the fact that their author was gradually going deaf and couldn’t hear music very well by the time he was composing them. Similarly, the “Moonlight Sonata” and "Für Elise" are renowned across the world and are some of the most famous piano pieces of all time. 
    At the same time, Beethoven’s work ushered in a new era in art, helping the transition from the Classical era to the Romantic era. In the 180 years since his death, Beethoven has been enshrined by modern society as one of the most esteemed classical composers in the history of civilization, but he had a profound and immediate influence on the German musical lineage that would pass through Robert Schumann, Richard Wagner, Gustav Mahler and Richard Strauss all the way to composers of the 20th and early 21st centuries. At a time when music was very much viewed as science, Beethoven was a giant in the field, and as such he was viewed as a genius. As Beethoven himself once put it, “Music is the one incorporeal entrance into the higher world of knowledge which comprehends mankind but which mankind cannot comprehend.” 
    In terms of assessing the essence of Beethoven’s era, character or musical output, no unqualified categorization is possible, for he straddled a titanic shifting of social ideologies, performance and compositional practices, intra-continental upheavals and an emergence of the championed self in all forms of civic and artistic expressions. The ideals of the Enlightenment, an intellectual tide that swept throughout the late 18th century and opened the door to a new individualism, did not remain static through his lifetime.
