Édouard Glissant, Martiniquan poet and writer died he was , 82.

Édouard Glissant  was a French writer, poet and literary critic. He is widely recognised as one of the most influential figures in Caribbean thought and cultural commentary died he was , 82..

 (September 21, 1928 – February 3, 2011)[1]
 
Glissant was born in Sainte-Marie, Martinique.[2] He studied at the Lycée Schoelcher, named after the abolitionist Victor Schoelcher, where the poet Aimé Césaire had studied and to which he returned as a teacher. Césaire had met Léon Damas there; later in Paris they would join with Léopold Senghor, a poet and the future first president of Senegal, to formulate and promote the concept of négritude. Césaire did not teach Glissant, but did serve as an inspiration to him (although Glissant sharply criticized many aspects of his philosophy); another student at the school at that time was Frantz Fanon.
Glissant left Martinique in 1946 for Paris, where he received his PhD, having studied ethnography at the Musée de l'Homme and History and philosophy at the Sorbonne. He established, with Paul Niger, the separatist Front Antillo-Guyanais pour l'Autonomie party in 1959, as a result of which Charles de Gaulle barred him from leaving France between 1961 and 1965. He returned to Martinique in 1965 and founded the Institut martiniquais d'études, as well as Acoma, a social sciences publication. Glissant divided his time between Martinique, Paris and New York; since 1995, he was Distinguished Professor of French at the CUNY Graduate Center . In January 2006, Édouard Glissant was asked by Jacques Chirac to take on the presidency of a new cultural centre devoted to the history of slave trade. An English translation of Chirac's speech can be found here.

Writings



Shortlisted for the Nobel Prize in 1992, when Derek Walcott emerged as the recipient, Glissant was the pre-eminent critic of the Négritude school of Caribbean writing and father-figure for the subsequent Créolité group of writers which includes Patrick Chamoiseau and Raphaël Confiant. While his first novel portrays the political climate in 1940s Martinique, through the story of a group of young revolutionaries, his subsequent work focuses on questions of language, identity, space and history. Glissant's development of the notion of antillanité seeks to root Caribbean identity firmly within "the Other America" and springs from a critique of identity in previous schools of writing, specifically the work of Aimé Césaire, which looked to Africa for its principal source of identification. He is notable for his attempt to trace parallels between the history and culture of the Creole Caribbean and those of Latin America and the plantation culture of the American south, most obviously in his study of William Faulkner. Generally speaking, his thinking seeks to interrogate notions of centre, origin and linearity, embodied in his distinction between atavistic and composite cultures, which has influenced subsequent Martinican writers' trumpeting of hybridity as the bedrock of Caribbean identity and their "creolised" approach to textuality. As such he is both a key (though underrated) figure in postcolonial literature and criticism, but also he often pointed out that he was close to two French philosophers, Félix Guattari and Gilles Deleuze, and their theory of the rhizome.
Glissant died in Paris, France at the age of 82.

LeRoy Grannis, American surfing photographer died he was , 93

LeRoy 'Granny' Grannis  was a veteran photographer. His portfolio of photography of surfing and related sea images from the 1960s enjoys a reputation that led The New York Times to dub him "the godfather of surfphotography."[1] He was born in Hermosa Beach, California.

(August 12, 1917 – February 3, 2011)

Life

Living a beachfront childhood, by the age of five Grannis was taken swimming and bodysurfing by his father. Soon Grannis made himself a bellyboard from a piece of wood and rode it during vacations in his mother's home state of Florida. In 1931, at age 14, his father gave him a 6' x 2' pine board from which he hacked a kneeboard using a drawknife[1]. At Hermosa Pier, stand up surfing was the rage, so he began borrowing boards until he could get his own. Later a member of the Palos Verdes Surf Club, second only in America to the Corona Del Mar Surf Board Club, which was established in the late 1920s [2], he struggled to balance surf time with family and work.

Odd Jobs and War

Unable to afford an education at UCLA during the Depression, Grannis dropped out and found work as a carpenter, junkyard de-tinner and spent some years at Standard Oil. He enlisted in the U.S. Army Air Corps (now the Air Force) in 1943, serving as a pilot flying supply lines to troops in combat and remaining on active reserve until retiring as a major in 1977. Several fellow surf club members were employed with Pacific Bell, and Grannis joined them in 1946.

Peace and New Opportunities

He had already begun to venture into photography, and several of his pictures were featured in photo pioneer and close friend Doc Ball's 1946 book California Surfriders. He surfed the occasional contest during the '50s, gradually settling into the role of assisting Hoppy Swarts at the controls during the early years of the United States Surfing Association. The telephone company job had given him an ulcer by 1959 and his doctor advised him to take up a hobby, and Ball suggested more serious photography.
His work soon appeared in prominent surf culture magazines of the time including Surfer, Reef and Surfing Illustrated. He quickly became one of the sport's most important documentarians. Other photographers were shooting from the water, but they were forced to return to land to reload. Grannis developed a rubber-lined box that enabled him to change film in the lineup. He spent the decade in California and Hawaii, capturing the best surfers in the world riding the best surf. He was photo editor of Surfing Illustrated and of International Surfing, which he co-founded.[2] He was named Grand Master of the 2007 Hermosa Beach Art Walk "Salute to 100 Summers." [3]

Some Awards and Accomplishments

He was elected to the International Surfing Hall of Fame as the number one lensman in 1966 and in 2002 was awarded SIMA's Lifetime Achievement Award. Grannis was the subject of The Surfer's Journal's first ode to master photographers in 1998 with a 1998 hardback compilation of Grannis' 1960s photos entitled Photo:Grannis, and his work was later featured in Stacy Peralta's 2004 award-winning documentary of the sport, Riding Giants. In 2005, M+B Gallery in Los Angeles gave Grannis his first art gallery exhibition and since then, his photographs have been exhibited at galleries, art fairs and museums both at home and abroad, including New York, Los Angeles, Paris, London and Antwerp. In 2006, TASCHEN published LeRoy Grannis: Birth of a Culture as a limited-edition, signed collector's edition monograph. Due to the extreme popularity of the book, TASCHEN has since released two additional popular editions of the book.
As said by Jason Borte, "Leroy Grannis wasn't the first to depict the California lifestyle with his photos. It wasn't his idea to begin shooting in the first place. His contributions to surfing photography occurred over a brief 12-year period, and he hasn't much bothered with it since 1971. Nevertheless, most of the great images from the '60s golden age of surfing, regardless of the magazine, bear the inscription "Photo: Grannis".[3] In 1971, fed up with increased competition for the perfect angle, Grannis quit shooting surfing and soon found himself involved in hang gliding. The sport replaced surfing in his life, and he held a brief stint as photographer for Hang Gliding magazine. Several injuries, including a badly fractured leg in 1981, caused him to find a new outlet. This time it was windsurfing. Until the late '80s, Grannis both engaged in and photographed the sport.
Grannis moved with his wife to Carlsbad, California after retiring from Pacific Bell in 1977. Grannis married Katie LaVerne Tracy in 1939, when she was 20, and the couple had four children- Kit, Frank, Nancy, and John, six grandchildren- Robert, Cindy, Alan, Elizabeth, Alana, and Kaylee, and three great-grandchildren- Casey, Emily, and Dane, and two great-great grandchildren during their 69-year marriage before Katie died on December 3, 2008, at age 89.

Maria Schneider, French actress (Last Tango in Paris), died from cancer she was , 58

Maria Schneider was a French actress. She was best known for playing Jeanne, opposite Marlon Brando, in the 1972 film, Last Tango in Paris died from cancer she was , 58.

(27 March 1952 – 3 February 2011)

Career

Schneider performed several nude scenes in Last Tango in Paris, which was controversial at the time. In an interview in 2007,[2] Schneider described Last Tango in Paris director Bernardo Bertolucci: "He was fat and sweaty and very manipulative, both of Marlon and myself, and would do certain things to get a reaction from me." As for her working relationship with Brando, she said that, while their relationship on the set was paternal, it was Brando who came up with the "butter scene" and it was not known to her until just before filming it:
She and Brando remained friends until his death, although they did not speak of the movie "for a while." She also said that her experience with the film – and her treatment as a sex symbol rather than as a serious actress – motivated her never to do films with nude scenes again. Schneider also appeared in films such as Antonioni's The Passenger and Zeffirelli's Jane Eyre.

Personal life

Schneider was born Marie Christine Gélin, the daughter of French actor Daniel Gélin, and Romanian-born Marie-Christine Schneider, who ran a bookstore in Paris.[3] She met her father only three times and took her mother's last name. In 1974, Schneider came out as bisexual.[4][5] In early 1976, she abandoned the film set of Caligula and checked herself into a mental hospital in Rome for several days with a woman she described as her lover.[6] This, coupled with her refusal to do nudity, led to Schneider's dismissal and she was replaced by Teresa Ann Savoy.
The 1970s were turbulent years for Schneider, marked by drug addiction, overdoses, and a suicide attempt. By the 1980s, however, she had turned her life around: She has spoken of relationships with women before and, in 1975, went to a mental hospital in Rome and committed herself as a voluntary patient in order to be with her lover, photographer Joan Townsend.[7]
"I was very lucky – I lost many friends to drugs – but I met someone in 1980 who helped me stop. I call this person my angel and we've been together ever since. I don't say if it's a man or a woman. That's my secret garden. I like to keep it a mystery."[2]
She was awarded the medal of Chevalier, Ordre des Arts et des Lettres for her contributions to the arts on 1 July 2010 by Minister of Culture and Communication, Frédéric Mitterrand, who was her fellow actor in Jacques Rivette's film, Merry-Go-Round.[8][7]
Maria Schneider died on 3 February 2011 from cancer at age 58.[8][9][10][11] [12][13]Remembering her, Bertolucci said, "Her death came too soon, before I could hold her again tenderly, and tell her that I felt connected to her as on the first day, and for once, to ask her to forgive me."[14] "Maria accused me of having robbed her of her youth and only today am I wondering whether there wasn't some truth to that," he added.[15][16]
Her funeral was held on 10 February 2011 at Église Saint-Roch, Paris, attended by stars of cinema such as Dominique Besnehard, Bertrand Blier, Christine Boisson, Claudia Cardinale, Alain Delon, Andréa Ferreol, and numerous producers and directors, as well as her surviving partner, Pia, half-siblings Fiona and Manuel Gélin, and her uncle, Georges Schneider. Delon read out a letter from Brigitte Bardot, who took care of the teenaged Schneider and helped her begin her career in cinema. Schneider was cremated afterwards at Père Lachaise crematorium, and her ashes were later to be scattered at sea at the foot of the Rock of the Virgin in Biarritz, according to her last wishes.[17][18][19][20]

Neil Young, British footballer (Manchester City), died from cancer he was , 66 .

Neil James Young  was an English footballer who made more than 400 appearances in the Football League playing as a striker for Manchester City, Preston North End and Rochdale died from cancer he was , 66 ..[3]
In total, Young scored 86 goals from 334 League games for Manchester City, scored the only goal in the 1969 FA Cup Final, and scored as City won the 1970 European Cup Winners' Cup Final. Transferred to Preston North End for £48,000 during the 1971–72 season, he made 68 League appearances and scored 18 goals for the Deepdale club before finishing his senior career with Rochdale, where he spent the 1974–75 season.


(17 February 1944 – 3 February 2011)

Career


Young was born in Fallowfield, Manchester, where he lived with his parents and older brother Chris.[4] His house was half a mile from Manchester City's Maine Road ground, which was visible from the bedroom window.[5] As a schoolboy he played for Manchester Boys,[6] facing opponents who were two years older.[7] After catching the eye of scout Harry Godwin,[7] Young signed for Manchester City as an apprentice in 1959,[8] turning down the opportunity to join Manchester United.[7] Around this time he was capped by England at youth level. [9] He turned professional in July 1960,[10] and made his first team debut in November 1961, in a 2–1 defeat against Aston Villa at Villa Park.[6] After breaking into the team for the first time, Young played every match in the remainder of the 1961–62 season.[11] He scored his first goal for the club on 23 December 1961, in a 3–0 home win against Ipswich Town.[11] He finished his first season with 11 goals in 26 appearances.[11]
Young's first full season was not a successful one for Manchester City; the team struggled to find form throughout. A four match unbeaten run in April, in which Young scored a winning goal against Bolton Wanderers,[12] gave hope, but on the final day of the season Manchester City were relegated to the Second Division.[13] For the following two seasons Young continued to be a regular first team player, though he missed the first two months of the 1964–65 season. Manchester City did not come close to promotion, and their 11th place finish in 1965 was at that point the lowest in the club's history. Manager George Poyser departed in April 1965, and in July 1965 his replacement, Joe Mercer, joined the club, along with coach Malcolm Allison.[14]
Young missed the start of the 1965–66 season with an illness that resulted in a tonsillectomy.[15] He marked his return to the team with two goals against Coventry City.[15] Up until this point in his career, Young had usually played on the left wing. However, encouraged by Mercer and Allison to shoot more frequently,[16] his position began to vary. Against Leyton Orient, Young was deployed as an inside forward, and scored a hat-trick.[17] He also played inside-forward in an FA Cup tie against Leicester City, and scored the winning goal against a team from the division above. By January, Manchester City were top of the Second Division. The club only lost one match in the remainder of the season, and won the Second Division Championship by a five point margin.[18] Young finished as the club's highest goalscorer, with 17 goals.[19]
.
Manchester City returned to the First Division for the 1966–67 season, and Young remained a key player. Before Manchester City's game against Leeds United, Leeds manager Don Revie, known for his meticulous scouting of opposition teams, identified Young as a particular threat in a Grandstand interview.[20] Operating mainly on the wing, Young scored less frequently than in the previous season, with 7 goals in 45 appearances.[21]
Manchester City finished the 1966–67 season in mid-table, and continued in a similar vein at the start of the 1967–68 season, failing to win in their first three matches. A tactical switch saw Young and Mike Summerbee moved inside, and Young scored two goals in City's first win of the season, 4–2 against Southampton.[22] Four more wins followed immediately, including a 2–0 win against Newcastle United in which Young scored a goal and missed a penalty.[23] Young remained at inside-forward for the rest of the season. Following the arrival of striker Francis Lee and a long unbeaten run, Manchester City entered the New Year as potential title contenders. In mid-March, a 5–1 win against Fulham in which Young scored two goals took Manchester City top of the table.[24] The lead changed hands several times in the following six weeks, but as the teams entered the final round of fixtures, Manchester City travelled to Newcastle knowing a win would guarantee the championship. Young scored twice and had another disallowed as Manchester City won 4–3 to win the title,[25] the first major honour of Young's career. Young also finished the season as the club's highest goalscorer with 20 goals.
The following season, Manchester City did not challenge for the title. However, they found more success in the FA Cup. Young played in every round as the club reached the 1969 FA Cup Final. The opponents in the final were Leicester City. As Leicester were struggling against relegation Manchester City were strong favourites. However, the game was a close affair. Midway through the first half, Mike Summerbee crossed the ball from the right, and Young hit a left foot shot past Peter Shilton into the roof of the net.[26] The match finished 1–0, Young's goal winning the Cup for Manchester City.[27]
Cup success continued in 1969–70. The club reached and won the League Cup Final, though Young, who had played in all but one of the preceding rounds, was left out of the team for the final.[28] A second final followed a month later, this time in European competition in the form of the European Cup Winners' Cup. City faced Polish club Górnik Zabrze in the final, held at Prater Stadium in Vienna. Young scored the opening goal, from a rebound after a save by Hubert Kostka.[29] Shortly before half-time Young was fouled in the penalty area by Kostka, and Francis Lee scored the resulting penalty.[29] City won the match 2–1 to become the first English team to win a European and domestic trophy within the same season.
In late 1970, Young's brother, Chris died aged 31, an event which affected Young deeply.[30] His performances for Manchester City suffered as a result. He played approximately half the matches in the 1970–71 season, scoring only two goals.[31] In the following season, he featured only rarely, and made his last appearance for the club on 16 October 1971, as a substitute against Leeds United.[32]
In total, Young scored 86 goals from 334 league games for Manchester City.[3] He was transferred to Second Division club Preston North End for £48,000 during the 1971–72 season.[33] He made his debut for the club in a 0–0 draw against Birmingham City.[34] He made 68 league appearances and scored 18 goals for the Deepdale club, but left after the club were relegated in the 1973–74 season.[34] He finished his senior career with Rochdale, where he spent the 1974–75 season.[3]
Young, widely regarded as one of Manchester City's most important players of the modern era, though not as celebrated nationally as teammates Colin Bell, Francis Lee and Mike Summerbee, was inducted into the Manchester City Hall of Fame in 2008.[8]

Personal life

Young married his first wife, Margaret, when he was 19.[35] The couple had a son and two daughters, and divorced in 1978.[36] He also had a daughter with his second wife, Susan.[37] Young married his third wife, Carmen, in 2003,[38] having lived with her since 1989.
After retiring from football Young had many different jobs, including removals,[37] managing a sports shop,[39] delivering milk,[39] working in a supermarket,[39] and selling insurance.[40] In his spare time he maintained his fitness by playing badminton, and after winning local tournaments, played the sport for Cheshire.[39] During much of this period he struggled financially, to the point where he had to sell the family home and move in with his mother.[41] Deeply depressed at this point in his life, at one point he attempted suicide.[41] From the mid-1990s Young has coached school football teams in the area around his Cheshire home.[42]
Young was diagnosed with terminal cancer in late 2010. Following a supporter campaign, Manchester City dedicated their FA Cup tie at Leicester on 9 January 2011 to Young. Supporters wore red and black (the colours City wore in the 1969 final against Leicester),[43] with proceeds from specially made scarves being split between Young and Wythenshawe Hospital.[44] He died on 3 February 2011, just two weeks shy of his 67th birthday.[45]
