Shakespeare and Company

Au premier coup d'œil, Shakespeare and Company n'est rien d'autre qu'une ènième librairie anglaise. Mais dès que vous pénétrez un peu à l'intérieur, vous commencez à découvrir ce qui fait que la devanture soit un tel musée et une telle légende. Entre les livres empilés jusqu'au plafond, il y a des notes, des annonces et des tracts laissés par les visiteurs du monde entier. Depuis 1919, le nom de Shakespeare and Company est un refuge pour les écrivains. A l'origine la librairie était le lieu de prédilection d'Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Joyce et d'autres. Aujourd'hui, des écrivains du monde entier viennent partager leur travail. Les écrivains méconnus ont aussi leur place; Shakespeare and Company loue un espace pour dormir en échange de deux ou trois heures de travail dans le magasin.

Mark Twain Boyhood Home & Museum

Within the humble two story house made of wood paneling, one of America's most important cultural figures not only came of age, but gained experiences that would contribute to some of the country's most memorable literary moments. The home of the erudite legend evokes a certain kind of literary nostalgia, which lingers over several nooks and crannies of the house, the very corners which served as inspiration for Twain to craft his revered stories. Part of the Mark Twain Historic District, the house doubles as a museum which plays host to myriad manuscripts, the author's original editions, interactive exhibits, treasured mementos and the famed fence featured in Tom Sawyer. An officially designated National Historic Landmark, this storied boyhood home helps keep Mark Twain's literature alive and relevant, even in today's times.

À l'origine prévu comme petite bibliothèque contenant des ouvrages de références, la Bibliothèque du Congrès contient maintenant la collection la plus grande des livres dans le monde, avec plus de 100 millions ouvrages, y compris un Bible de Gutenberg et des premiers brouillons de la Déclaration d'Indépendance et l'Adresse de Gettysburg.

Jane Austen's House Museum (Chawton Cottage)

Jane Austen's House Museum is a must-see for literary buffs. Jane Austen moved here from Southampton in 1809 and began writing again, revising Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice and Mansfield Park. You can see where Jane wrote, sewed, made wine and enjoyed gardening. Her music book, a dress she wore, a quilt she stitched and the work table where she wrote her books are all on display. You can also see her donkey carriage - the door still creaks out a warning, as it did when Jane hastily hid her writing from visitors.

The Ernest Hemingway Home & Museum

The Hemingway Home & Museum was the residence of the renowned author Ernest Hemingway. Hemingway was known both for his grander-than-life personality and his amazing writing, including the books The Sun Also Rises and Farewell to Arms. The rooms and the collections on display give you an insight into the life of this famous writer. Keep a look out for the museum's many polydactyl (six-toed) cats that are rumored to be descendants of Hemingway's pet cat Snow White.

Les Deux Magots

Un lieu célébrissime du quartier intello-chic de St-Germain-des-Prés. Sa terrasse mythique a été le point de rencontre des grands écrivains et philosophes dans les années 50. Ernest Hemingway, qui s'y connaissait en bars, y avait ses habitudes. Ce n'est pas un hasard si La Hune, une des meilleures librairies de Paris, a élu domicile à côté. Le mythe est toujours vivace, et nombreux sont ceux qui se pressent pour déguster un kir royal après leur shopping. La carte comprend des assiettes composées mais aussi un plat du jour (poulet fermier ratatouille, saumon froid sauce verte par exemple).

Trinity College Library

Housing more than 6,000,000 volumes, the Trinity College Library is one of the largest libraries in Ireland. Although occupying several buildings, four of the main ones are located in the Trinity College Campus itself. From the four, the main drawcard is the Old Library that not only houses the 65-meter-long (213 feet) Long Room, but also houses the Book of Kells that contains the four Gospels of the New Testament. Other items in the library that are equally fascinating include the 1916 Proclamation of the Irish Republic, the Book of Durrow and the Book of Howth. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself mesmerized by the beauty and ancient charm of the magnificent library as well as the amazing collection of ancient texts. After you have toured the library, head to the Trinity College Library Shop and buy some souvenirs for friends and family.
