La guerre et le inonde, extension de champ terrifiante qui fait de la guerre un universel, donnant au passage la clé des rapports de subordination qui unissent guerre et paix? Sans polémique, mais sans se faire non plus illusion sur l'irénisme, cc volume envisage sur deux millénaires une dialectique de la guerre et de la paix qui prend la forme d'une succession de conflits à peine entrecoupés de paix qui ont la fragilité d'armistices, nonobstant, depuis l'abbé de Saint-Pierre jusqu'à Kant, force projets de paix perpétuelle dont l'esprit a soufflé sur les organismes chargés d'assurer la sécurité collective, de la SDN à l'ONU. Avec plus ou moins de réussite.

Artmann und seine Kinderliteratur : Neue schöne Kinderreime? Artmann und seine Kinderliteratur : Neue schöne Kinderreime? Le Journal d'un curé de campagne adapté par Aurenche et Bost -- Le projet d'adaptation de Journal d'un curé de campagne par Aurenche et Bost : un problème de formes -- La genèse du Diable au corps 1947. En comparant les romans ou les pièces de théâtre à leurs variantes scénaristiques et cinématographiques, les contributeurs du volume examinent les fonctions de la référence littéraire, certaines étapes de la création notamment le découpage technique ou certains procédés narratifs comme le flash-back ou la mise en abyme. L'oeuvre filmique apparaît alors comme le résultat d'un geste nécessairement collectif, comme l'aboutissement d'un travail d'écriture mouvant dont l'étude nous apprend beaucoup sur le pouvoir respectif des mots, des images et des sons. Le scénario est souvent étudié dans une optique normative ; le voici envisagé comme le lieu des possibles.

The most commonly used reinforcement materials are galvanised steel strips, geosynthetics in the form of woven geotextiles, geogrids and geocomposites, and fibres from natural and waste products. In recent years, there have been advances in the area of soil reinforcement, especially in the utilization of the technique in field projects. The researchers have also been working to understand the behaviour of reinforced soil considering the field challenges of reinforced soil structures. The first paper by Ioannis N. Markou presents the details of sand-geotextile interaction based on interface tests with conventional and large-scale direct shear equipment. The second paper by Atef Ben Othmen and Mounir Bouassida examines the interface properties of geosynthetic reinforcement by carrying out inclined plane tests under low confinement adapted to landfill covers conditions. The third paper by J. Verma deals with the triaxial compression behaviour of soil reinforced with steel and aluminium solid plates in horizontal layers. The fourth paper by M. Shukla describes the swelling and shrinkage behaviour of expansive soil blended with lime and fibres. The fifth paper by S. Shukla provides the test results of shear strength of cohesionless soil reinforced with metalized plastic waste. The sixth paper by Bouacha Nadjet compares the geotextile-reinforced and geogrid-reinforced flexible pavements based on numerical analyses. The seventh paper by S. Chaudhary reports the results of laboratory model tests carried out on a square footing resting on prestressed geotextile reinforced sand. The eighth paper by Sanoop G and Satyajit Patel presents the numerical studies on ground improvement using geosynthetic reinforced sand layer. The ninth paper by ------------------- discusses the bearing capacity prediction of inclined loaded strip footing on reinforced sand by ANN. The tenth paper by Mohamad B. Elsawy presents the numerical simulation of an embankment, constructed on reinforced soft soil with conventional stone piles. The eleventh paper by N.

Fettered to European politics and diplomacy through colonialism, Africa could not claim a position of neutrality, meaning that it mobilised human and natural resources to support the imperial war effort. Fighting both within and outside Africa, colonised Africans who were compelled or coaxed by the colonial regimes of the warring European countries fought Europeans and Africans too. The soldiers fought with great dedication and contributed significantly to successes attained by the belligerent European colonialists. Similarly, African non-combatants, like carriers, brought zeal and enthusiasm to difficult wartime tasks. The impact of the war on Africa was immense with far-reaching consequences in specific colonies, and touched the lives of all Africans under colonial rule. Although the continent's connections to the war were immense and diverse, these experiences are not widely known among scholars and the general public. This is because, over the years, most studies and commemorative events of the war have centred on the European theatre of the war and its outcomes. This book brings together interesting essays written by scholars of African history, society, and military about African experiences of the war. It complements and problematises some key themes on Africa and the First World War, and offers a stimulating historiographical excursion, providing possibilities for reconsidering normative conclusions on the war. The volume will be of interest to general readers, as well as students and researchers in different areas of scholarship, including African history, war studies, postcolonial studies, cultural studies, labour history, and the history of memory, among others.

The book also presents case studies on measuring air pollution in major urban areas, such as Delhi, India. The book examines vehicles as a source of air pollution and addresses the quantitative analysis of engine exhaust emissions. Subsequent chapters discuss particulate matter from engines and coal-fired power plants as a major pollutant, as well as emission control techniques using various after treatment systems. The book's final chapter considers future perspectives and a way forward for sustainable development. It also discusses several emission control techniques that will gain relevance in the future, when stricter emission norms will be enforced for international combustion IC engines as well as power plants. Given its breadth of coverage, the book will benefit a wide variety of readers, including researchers, professionals, and policymakers.

Since Oscar Zariski organized a meeting in 1954, there has been a major algebraic geometry meeting every decade: Woods Hole 1964 , Arcata 1974 , Bowdoin 1985 , Santa Cruz 1995 , and Seattle 2005. The American Mathematical Society has supported these summer institutes for over 50 years. Their proceedings volumes have been extremely influential, summarizing the state of algebraic geometry at the time and pointing to future developments. The most recent Summer Institute in Algebraic Geometry was held July 2015 at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, sponsored by the AMS with the collaboration of the Clay Mathematics Institute. This volume includes surveys growing out of plenary lectures and seminar talks during the meeting. Some present a broad overview of their topics, while others develop a distinctive perspective on an emerging topic. The resulting articles will be important references in these areas for years to come. Bayer, Wall-crossing implies Brill-Noether applications of stability conditions on surfaces R.

Since Oscar Zariski organized a meeting in 1954, there has been a major algebraic geometry meeting every decade: Woods Hole 1964 , Arcata 1974 , Bowdoin 1985 , Santa Cruz 1995 , and Seattle 2005. The American Mathematical Society has supported these summer institutes for over 50 years. Their proceedings volumes have been extremely influential, summarizing the state of algebraic geometry at the time and pointing to future developments. The most recent Summer Institute in Algebraic Geometry was held July 2015 at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, sponsored by the AMS with the collaboration of the Clay Mathematics Institute. This volume includes surveys growing out of plenary lectures and seminar talks during the meeting. Some present a broad overview of their topics, while others develop a distinctive perspective on an emerging topic. The resulting articles will be important references in these areas for years to come. Some Preliminary Reflections on the Foreign Policy of Barack Obama Mario Del Pero. The seminars allowed Italian scholars to focus on the different profiles of the Presidency as a governmental institution. This volume is the outcome of that congress.

From the harvest to the meal in prehistoric China and Greece: a comparative approach to the social context of food Xinyi Liu, Evi Margaritis and Martin Jones-- 14. On libraries and manuscript culture in Western Han Chang'an and Alexandria Michael Nylan-- Afterword Michael Loewe. The topics tackled include key issues in philosophy and religion, in art and literature, in mathematics and the life sciences including gender studies , in agriculture, city planning and institutions. The volume also analyses how to go about the task of comparing, including finding viable comparanda and avoiding the trap of interpreting one culture in terms appropriate only to another. The book is set to provide a model for future collaborative and interdisciplinary work exploring what is common between ancient civilisations, what is distinctive of particular ones, and what may help to account for the latter.

The Future of Classical Oratory Gerhard Thur Contributors Index Locorum Index. Yet, in contrast to later societies in which law became a professional discipline, the Greeks treated laws as components of social and political history, reflecting the daily realities of managing society. To understand Greek law, then, requires looking into extant legal, forensic, and historical texts for evidence of the law in action. From such study has arisen the field of ancient Greek law as a scholarly discipline within classical studies, a field that has come into its own since the 1970s. This edited volume charts new directions for the study of Greek law in the twenty-first century through contributions from eleven leading scholars. The second section breaks new ground by redefining substantive areas of law such as administrative law and sacred law, as well as by examining sources such as Hellenistic inscriptions that have been comparatively neglected in recent scholarship. The third section evaluates the potential of methodological approaches to the study of Greek law, including comparative studies with other cultures and with modern legal theory. The volume ends with an essay that explores pedagogy and the relevance of teaching Greek law in the twenty-first century.

Nem Gregos nem Troianos Jose Bandeira Bibliography Index. From Prehistory until today, the Mediterranean has been setting, witness and protagonist of mythical adventures, of encounters with the Other, of battles and the rise and fall of cultures and empires, of the destinies of humans. Braudel's appeal for a long duree history of the Mediterranean challenged traditional views that often present it as a sea fragmented and divided through periods. This volume proposes a journey into the bright and dark sides of the ancient Mediterranean through the kaleidoscopic gaze of artists who from the Renaissance to the 21st century have been inspired by its myths and history. The view of those who imagined and recreated the past of the sea has largely contributed to the shaping of modern cultures which are inexorably rooted and embedded in Mediterranean traditions. The contributions look at modern visual reinterpretations of ancient myths, fiction and history and pay particular attention to the theme of sea travel and travellers, which since Homer's Odyssey has become the epitome of the discovery of new worlds, of cultural exchanges and a metaphor of personal developments and metamorphoses.

Whale and Dog in Food Culture -- Bernadette Lizet : manger du cheval en France. Une question de distance. Abattre un animal est en effet une chose grave, qui soulève une interrogation sur le geste prédateur, et entraîne une conscience du meurtre, encore accrue par le degré de proximité de la victime. Faire appel aux animaux - des mammifères aux invertébrés - pour se nourrir, entraîne une certaine vision du vivant et de la nature environnante. L'alimentation carnée véhicule bien des valeurs culturelles, qui varient avec le temps et les groupes sociaux : appréciée pour son goût, son prestige, ou sa valeur symbolique, considérée comme indispensable pour les protéines qu'elle apporte, la viande est aussi l'objet d'un grand nombre d'interdits. Par la démarche de l'observation directe et la mise en regard de plusieurs sociétés de l'Espagne au Japon dans leur rapport à un animal spécifique, ce volume interroge, à partir des différentes formes de traitement, d'exclusion ou de consommation, les représentations singulières construites autour d'espèces emblématiques : cheval, taureau, renne, chien, baleine, insectes...

La fin de l'exception politique lorraine? Entre mouvements sociaux, divergences idéologiques et repli électoral. L'angle de vue choisi est ici volontairement régional pour contribuer, par une approche décentrée des pôles de décision parisiens, à une meilleure compréhension des événements politiques, économiques, sociaux et culturels de la période considérée. Au départ du projet, le constat que l'année 1986 vit se tenir sur tout le territoire national, DOM inclus, les premières élections régionales au suffrage universel direct. Plus largement, il s'est agi d'observer les transformations sociales et culturelles, les douloureuses mutations économiques et les évolutions partisanes de grande ampleur d'une façon territorialisée.

Ces compendia la forme brève y prédomine, sous diverses dispositions éditoriales reconduisent la fonction volontiers identitaire, patrimoniale et critique de l'anthologie nationale tout en y ajoutant une ouverture à l'altérité : ces bibliothèques en miniature traversées par des enjeux liés à la traduction jouent un rôle fondamental de médiation dans la réception des oeuvres à l'étranger.
