 CBC Arts: Writers gather to launch Callaghan anthology
In his memoir That Summer in Paris, Callaghan discussed meeting "Jimmy Joyce" in Paris in 1929 and called Joyce's epic Ulysses a "comic masterpiece" that is meant to be read aloud.
"As part of Barry's spurring me on," Atwood recounted, "he sent over not only all of the other stories that are in this book, but he sent over a Maclean's magazine from the mid-1950s in which this whole novella was printed.
The launch and the readings of Morley Callaghan's short stories took place on the 100th anniversary of Bloomsday, a date some called appropriate for holding a tribute to the Canadian author.

 artnet.com: Resource Library: Pitoin, Quentin-Claude
Two fire-dogs (Paris, Louvre), one decorated with a stag and the other with a boar, the first example of which was intended for Mme du Barry, and fire-dogs (Paris, Louvre) with lyre-shaped decoration, of which several further examples were made from 1771, have, however, been attributed to him.
It is difficult to discover the exact amount of Pitoin’s participation in his commissions, because he often subcontracted a significant proportion of the work to his colleagues, for example Dangeville, Antoine Jean Moreau, Feloix or Henry, and because the records of his workshop do not describe models made by Pitoin.
From 1763 until his death he was the main supplier to the Garde Meuble de la Couronne of gilt-bronze furnishing objects and on 20 March 1764 bought the warrant of Marchand Doreur, Graveur, Damsquineur privilégié du Roi suivant la Cour.

Barry Jones was in Paris when his words 'Labor has lost its way' became a banner headline.
BARRY JONES: If there were to be a double-dissolution next year, then I think the Labor Party would have to pick up a number of the important issues that we raised that were actually raised in Knowledge Nation and were buried, to some extent, because of the desire to pursue the small target strategy.
BARRY JONES: Well, I think that -- well, I should say that since the year 2001 I see a difference in direction and I'm heartened by the fact that I think the Labor Party is taking more of a moral and less of a pragmatic approach on the question of asylum seekers.

 W. M. Thackeray's The Luck of Barry Lyndon (1844)
The finest brief analysis of the book is Robert A. Colby's "Barry Lyndon and the Irish Hero." Although the actual writing began in Paris, in June, 1844, Thackeray was in Ireland, presumably hunting for material for The Luck of Barry Lyndon, a satire of then-popular "Irish" novels.
Although Barry believes himself to have been in youth both a man of courage and of genius, he was outwitted by those who are not particularly clever (including his first love, Nora Brady; the intriguing Countess Ida; and even his wife, Lady Lyndon).
Thackeray's roguish Redmond Barry is patently an imitation of Henry Fielding's picaresque hero Jonathan Wild, although unlike his eighteenth-century progenitor he is not a professional criminal.

 A conversation with BARRY LOPEZ
Lopez is a regular contributor to Harper's, The Paris Review, American Short Fiction and Story and has built a powerful reputation as an essayist, author and short story writer rigorously fascinated by landscape.
Lopez went on to work professionally as a landscape and nature photographer, but grew restless with the estrangement and invasion he felt as a 'taker' of images.
Along with the airy poetic touches in his work, Lopez brings an acute sense of obligation to detail and integrity with his every observance, and something that can only be described as a spiritually driven, almost Zen-like regard for non-fiction.

 Barry Mackenzie Holds His Own 1974
In Paris, Barry meets up with a whole load of his mates from the old country (anyone who's ever met an Australian will know this is exactly what always happens), and the amount of cans he's carrying on his person causes the metal detector at the airport to explode.
Barry discovers that Aunt Edna has been spirited away to Transylvania, and assembles a crack troop of his mates (with the old "Anzac spirit") to help get her back, and so we head towards the predictably stupid ending.
Of course, with Barry being Australian and us Brits being a bit uptight, he has to be smuggled back into the UK as an illegal immigrant along with a bunch of Indians.

To this period belongs Garrick's quarrel with Barry, the only actor who even temporarily rivalled him in the favour of the public.
In 1763 Garrick and his wife visited Paris, where they were cordially received and made the acquaintance of Diderot and others at the house of the baron d'Holbach.
For the stately declamation, the sonorous, and beyond a doubt impressive, chant of Quin and his fellows, Garrick substituted rapid changes of passion and humour in both voice and gesture, which held his audiences spellbound.

Dr Pierre Sokoloff's team at the Neurobiology and Molecular Pharmacology Unit in Paris, working with Cambridge University and the French pharmaceutical company Bioprojet, reports in the journal Nature that the compound reduces drug-seeking in dependent rodents.

 ROBERT DARNTON An Early Information Society: News and the Media in Eighteenth-Century Paris The American Historical Review, 105.1 The History Cooperative
Mairobert's biography of du Barry is really a scrapbook of these news items strung together along a narrative line, which takes the heroine from her obscure birth as the daughter of a cook and a wandering friar to a star role in a Parisian whorehouse and finally the royal bed.
Du Barry sleeps her way to the top, using tricks she picked up in the whorehouse to revive the exhausted libido of the old king and thus to dominate the kingdom.
In each case, as the story went, du Barry filled the king with drink, dragged him to bed, and got him to sign any edict that had been prepared for her by her evil counselors.
