À travers l'histoire, l'art a nourri les esprits et les âmes.Il est fascinant de voir aujourd'hui comment les artistes du passé influencent les créateurs actuels.Les chapitres de ce livre tentent de démontrer qu'une oeuvre n'est pas le fait d'un geste isolé. À travers les siècles, les artistes n'ont pas hésité à s'inspirer des phénomènes artistiques existants pour créer une oeuvre originale personnelle.Ces pages se veulent une série de pistes qui peuvent rendre l'étude des grands courants artistiques plus riches en interprétation en insis- tant sur les approches les plus connues et les plus faciles à décoder.J'espère qu'elles sauront vous inspirer.

This book recalls the story of 135 Americans grouped together in a company of paratroopers of the 82nd American Airborne from their enlistment to the end of the Battle of Normandy. Throughout this book, you will discover what stirred them to enlist in this new force, yet unknown even in America : the paratroopers. After the psychological shock provoked by Pearl Harbour on 7th December 1941, this unit, like many others, was created from nothing. You will share with these men their daily life during their military training in the United States through their own accounts, most of them published here for the first time, as well as their life in England in early 1944 whilst awaiting operation 'Overlord'; a plan which was kept secret to the very last minute, even from the paratroopers. Through original accounts, you will take part in the final preparations on the airfield tarmac at Folkingham, in England just before they boarded the C47 aircraft. You will board with them onto the nine C47's assigned to their company, from lift-off to the great night jump onto drop zone 'N'; somewhere in the middle of Normandy among German flak fire. You will take this jump with them, which was the first for almost all of the paratroopers, and alas, the last for many. You will take an active part in the regroupment attempts on the 'high spot' of &'Hill 30';. You will stay with them until the 12th of July 1944, date marking the end of the Battle of Normandy, at a cost of many deaths and casualties. You will understand the organisation of a parachute regiment, a battalion command company and an air transport group during the Battle of Normandy. This book is far from a trivial official report. It is the human testimony of simple soldiers, many of whom have awaited their old-age before telling their tale, for they simply didn't have the strength to tell it earlier. Certain veterans mentioned in this book have deceased before its publication, but the account of their achievements will live on in history.

Décider: Du champ de bataille à l'entreprise, coopérer pour gagner
Le processus de d cision, pourtant essentiel au succ s d'une strat gie ou la r ussite d'un projet, est trop souvent con u comme un exercice solitaire, faisant davantage appel l'instinct qu' la raison, men par des managers d bord s qui, au mieux font ce qu'ils peuvent et au pire procrastinent en attendant que les v nements leur imposent un choix.Une d cision mal n e donnant rarement une ex cution r ussie, le temps et l' nergie consacr s rectifier apr s coup ce qui a t mal con u p sent sur l'entreprise, d gradent son efficacit , puisent ses managers et d mobilisent ses collaborateurs.S'inspirant des proc dures op rationnelles d velopp es par les arm es occidentales, et en particulier l'arm e Fran aise, Beno t de Saulce Latour propose aux dirigeants et managers une m thode simple et prouv e pour am liorer la qualit des d cisions, faciliter leur mise en oeuvre, faire grandir les quipes et se lib rer du temps.

Real Option Analysis and Climate Change

Real Option Analysis and Climate Change

Benoit Morel

Springer Nature Switzerland AG
2019

This book sets out to reframe the theory of real options so that it can be used to support environmental investments for climate change adaptation and mitigation. Climate change policy often involves making decisions that concern extended time periods, and doing so under considerable uncertainty. By expanding and broadening the framework of real options, this book first introduces readers to new ways of quantifying investment decisions that can much more effectively address the shape and size of the uncertainty than traditional approaches using Net Present Value. In turn, the second part of the book applies this new theoretical framework to climate change policy by presenting a number of examples, and by providing a general perspective on investment decisions related to climate change and how to prioritize them.

This book explores a wide range of light phenomena observed both in nature and laboratory environments. It presents practical examples that can be applied to experimental setups, including matrix optics for building complex optical systems, wave optics using interferometers for high-precision measurements, and Jones-Stokes-Müller calculus for polarization analysis. This book also covers astronomical applications, such as telescope design aimed at minimizing optical aberrations, and the use of doublet and triplet lenses to correct spherochromatism. It introduces the transport equation in the context of paraxial optics, providing insights into the Fresnel transform, Gaussian beams, and Bessel beams. A section on Gabor optics examines novel microlens-based systems, while the discussion of relativistic photonics highlights the selection of coordinate systems suited to materials and boundaries. Combining theoretical foundations with real-world applications, this book is an essential resource for researchers, engineers, and students engaged in contemporary optical signal processing.
Paris Haussmann – A Model`s Relevance

In the 19th century, Paris underwent profound transformations above and below ground, from the city centre to its outskirts. Georges Eugene Haussmann, Prefect of the Seine from 1853 to 1870, embodies this entire century of public works that continue to shape the city's organisation and identity. Paris Haussmann explores and analyses the characteristics of this homogenous yet polymorphous cityscape, the result of a lengthy process of changes and evolutions, even in recent times. Research was conducted at all levels to classify and compare roadways, identify public spaces, and organise the blocks and buildings according to their current geometry. For the first time, the qualities of the Haussmann model have been set forth to show how they grapple with the challenges that contemporary cities face. Rich illustrative material, photographs, various plans and maps, floor plans and sections, axonometric projections, diagrams and other graphics, and statistical analyses complement topical essays. The book is published in conjunction with an exhibition at the Pavillon de l'Arselnal in Paris in spring 2017.
L'Apologétique Dans La Pensée de Paul Tillich
Selon Tillich, l'apolog tique signifie d fendre la foi chr tienne lorsqu'elle est menac e, et en r pondre devant des adversaires. D s lors, dans le contexte d'une culture en voie de s cularisation, o la religion se trouve de plus en plus contest e dans ses pr tentions organiser et r gir la soci t , il tait normal que l'apolog tique occupe une place importante dans la r flexion th ologique.Chez Tillich, on note une volution importante dans sa mani re d'envisager cette notion. En effet, loin de proposer une approche purement dualiste de l'apolog tique, qui opposerait par exemple la v rit chr tienne au doute ath e, Tillich cherchera toujours rencontrer son interlocuteur ath e sur un terrain commun d'entente. Ce crit re du terrain commun sera d'ailleurs le crit re fondamental de sa compr hension de l'apolog tique, m me si cette derni re se reconfigure de diff rentes mani res au fil du temps. En effet, d'autres crit res seront galement parfois soulign s, surtout durant toute la p riode allemande de son enseignement. Pour montrer les convergences et les discontinuit s dans cette compr hension de l'apolog tique, nous avons envisag la recherche de mani re chronologique, en nous basant sur les principaux textes qui abordaient explicitement le terme apolog tique . Le r sultat de notre recherche fut alors de constater qu'il existait deux grands paradigmes dans la compr hension tillichienne de l'apolog tique, savoir: une apolog tique de l'attaque et une apolog tique de la r ponse. Sch matiquement, nous rattacherons la premi re la p riode allemande de son enseignement, et la seconde la p riode am ricaine. Il faut aussi noter que notre recherche commence par aborder la question de l'apolog tique partir des crits de l'ann e 1913, c'est- -dire des crits ant rieurs la p riode d'enseignement allemande, qu'elle contient galement une reprise rebours de son sujet, via une tude des rapports entre Tillich et Barth, qui mettent en jeu la possibilit , ou non, d'une d marche de type apolog tique, et qu'elle ouvre la question du dialogue interreligieux, ainsi qu' une actualisation de la question apolog tique.
Colonial Impotence

Colonial Impotence

Benoît Henriet

De Gruyter Oldenbourg
2021
sidottu
In Colonial Impotence, Benoît Henriet studies the violent contradictions of colonial rule from the standpoint of the Leverville concession, Belgian Congo’s largest palm oil exploitation. Leverville was imagined as a benevolent tropical utopia, whose Congolese workers would be "civilized" through a paternalist machinery. However, the concession was marred by inefficiency, endemic corruption and intrinsic brutality. Colonial agents in the field could be seen as impotent, for they were both unable and unwilling to perform as expected. This book offers a new take on the joint experience of colonialism and capitalism in Southwest Congo, and sheds light on their impact on local environments, bodies, societies and cosmogonies.
The Encounter of Chinese and Western Philosophies
Vermander revisits the encounter between Chinese and Western philosophy while unfolding questions about the way "comparative philosophy" is conducted today. In the vulgate of intellectual history, "Western thought" has constructed a substantialist view of reality that puts "relations" and "processes" into a subordinate position. The same view explains for the primacy given to the autonomy of individual beings. In contrast, according to the same vulgate, Chinese thought has been stressing the fluidity of all phenomena and forms of life to best adapt to their overarching patterns. The critique of these representations is a preliminary for tackling the following question: in today’s context, what style of cross-cultural philosophical engagement should be imagined and fostered? Cross-cultural philosophical dialogue is indeed indispensable to the revival of philosophies that could be both local and genuinely dialogic. The first two chapters focus upon the dominant model propounded by Western sinologists when it comes to comparing the Western philosophical tradition with the Chinese one. The third chapter shifts to Chinese narratives about local, comparative, and global philosophies, notably assessing its self-positioning vis-à-vis Western authors, topics, and concepts. Chapter 4 offers a general reading of ancient Chinese classics, alternative to the one that presently dominates the landscape described in Chapters 1 to 3. Chapter 5 harnesses the results and insights already gathered, offering a blueprint as to the way to positively draw upon different philosophical traditions to engage common questions and pursue shared endeavors. A last chapter presents four cases of ongoing transcultural philosophical dialogues and the promises they bear, while the conclusion recapitulates the journey and opens further perspectives. Once it develops outside pre-formatted narratives, the web shaped by our philosophies and wisdoms suggests the outlines of a world that we could inhabit together.

This book presents several fundamental questions in mathematical biology such as Turing instability, pattern formation, reaction-diffusion systems, invasion waves and Fokker-Planck equations. These are classical modeling tools for mathematical biology with applications to ecology and population dynamics, the neurosciences, enzymatic reactions, chemotaxis, invasion waves etc. The book presents these aspects from a mathematical perspective, with the aim of identifying those qualitative properties of the models that are relevant for biological applications. To do so, it uncovers the mechanisms at work behind Turing instability, pattern formation and invasion waves. This involves several mathematical tools, such as stability and instability analysis, blow-up in finite time, asymptotic methods and relative entropy properties. Given the content presented, the book is well suited as a textbook for master-level coursework.
