Une enfance lorraine nous fait suite Le Petit gar on et la synagogue o j'ai relat comment un fils d'ouvrier-paysan est devenu professeur d'arabe l'Universit de Toulouse et de Strasbourg. Dans ce nouveau livre j' voque le petit village de Lambach-Glasenberg et r veille des figures de mon enfance que j'ai c toy es durant la d cennie de 1946 1956. Nous vivions dans un monde qui se m tamorphosait sous les coups d'une irr versible modernisation. Je n'oublie surtout pas la bande des quatre que nous formions, mes camarades et moi, d bordante d'imagination et d'espi glerie... J'y d cris un temps o le bonheur se nourrissait de petits riens et de beaucoup de r ves. Nous sortions d'une guerre d vastatrice, et, devant nous, s'ouvrait un monde nouveau, prometteur de chances et de prosp rit . Nous allions de d couverte en d couverte, sans imaginer qu'un jour, soixante-dix ans plus tard, nous marcherions sur une autre plan te. Cette vocation du pass en tonnera plus d'un, les jeunes comme les adultes. Les premiers parce qu'ils d couvriront une poque aujourd'hui inimaginable pour eux; les seconds, parce qu'ils l'auront vraiment v cue.

Zoune Chez sa Ninnaine est le r cit humoristique des aventures de Zoune. Zoune grandit a la campagne dans les collines du Pays Pourri jusqu' environ onze ans. C'est Port-au-Prince toutefois, six ans plus tard, que ses aventures prendront une tournure la fois int ressante et inqui tante. Confront e aux instincts primitifs du colonel Cadet Jacques, devenu l'amant de sa ninnaine, Zoune se trouvera face un dilemme impossible. Justin Lh risson, l'auteur de Zoune Chez sa Ninnaine r v la, la fin de son livre, son intention d'y crire une suite qu'il titrait Zoune Dans la Vie. Malheureusement il mourut l'ann e suivante, en 1907. C'est donc plus d'un si cle plus tard que Jean E Paraisy crivit cette suite. Dans zoune Chez sa Ninnaine, Zoune apprend bien des le ons qu'elle appliquera dans la vie. Mais elle devra t t ou tard faire face au colonel Cadet Jacques devenu bien plus puissant maintenant.
This book is an interesting article into the beginnings of the internal combustion engine. The book contains illustrations and may have some typos. From the Author; The constantly increasing use of gas-engines in the last decade has led to the invention of a great number of types, the operation and care of which necessitate a special practical knowledge that is not exacted by other motors, such as steam-engines. Explosion-engines, driven by illuminating-gas, producer-gas, oil, benzin, alcohol and the like, exact much more care in their operation and adjustment than steam-engines. Indeed, steam-engines are regularly subjected to comparatively low pressures. The temperature in the cylinders, moreover, is moderate. On the other hand, the explosion-motor is irregularly subjected to high and low pressures. The temperature of the gases at the moment of explosion is exceedingly high. It is consequently necessary to resort to artificial means for cooling the cylinder; and the manner in which this cooling is effected has a very great influence on the operation of the motor. If the cooling be effected too rapidly, the quantity of gas consumed is considerably increased; if the cooling be effected too slowly, the motor parts will quickly deteriorate. In order to reduce the gas consumption to a minimum, a matter which is particularly important when viii the motor is driven by street-gas, the explosive mixture is compressed before ignition. Only if all the parts are built with joints absolutely gas-tight is it possible to obtain this compression. The slightest leakage past the valves or around the piston will sensibly increase the consumption. The mixture should be exploded at the exact moment the piston starts on its working stroke. If ignition occurs too soon or too late, the result will be a marked diminution in the useful effect produced by the expansion of the gas. All ignition devices are composed of delicate parts, which cannot be too well cared for. It follows from what has thus far been said that the causes of perturbation are more numerous in a gas than in a steam engine; that with a gas-engine, improper care will lead to a much greater increase in consumption than with a steam-engine, and will cause a waste in power which would hardly be appreciable in steam-engines, whether their joints be tight or not. It is the purpose of this manual to indicate the more elementary precautions to be taken in the care of an engine operating under normal conditions, and to explain how repairs should be made to remedy the injuries caused by accidents. Engines which are of less than 200 horse-power and which are widely used in a small way will be primarily considered. In another work the author will discuss more powerful engines. Before considering the choice, installation, and operation of a gas-engine, it will be of interest to ascertain ix the relative cost of different kinds of motive power. Disregarding special reasons which may favor the one or the other method of generating power, the net cost per horse-power hour will be considered in each case in order to show which is the least expensive method of generating power in ordinary circumstances.

Das vorliegende Buch analysiert die Problematik des Ph nomens der illegalen Einwanderung in der Grenzregion Kamerun-Gabun- quatorialguinea. Der Autor stellt zu diesem Zweck die perversen Auswirkungen dieses Ph nomens innerhalb des Dreil nderecks dar, das noch immer als Zone des Wohlstands im Cemac-Raum gilt, die einen Kanal f r das wirtschaftliche Wachstum der drei Grenzstaaten und ihrer Bev lkerung in der Subregion darstellt. Allerdings beeintr chtigt die Dynamik oder der Strom unkontrollierter Migrationsbewegungen, der sich hier in vollem Aufschwung befindet, zunehmend die politische, wirtschaftliche und soziale Zusammenarbeit der verschiedenen staatlichen Akteure in der Zone. Es wurde festgestellt, dass dieses Ph nomen auf sozio-anthropologische, wirtschaftliche und historische Faktoren zur ckzuf hren ist, die mit den Hauptakteuren zusammenh ngen, die an dieser illegalen Aktivit t beteiligt sind, n mlich: die Bev lkerung, die Stra en- und Seefrachtf hrer und die K stenwache. Angesichts dieser Situation schl gt der Autor Perspektiven zur L sung des Problems vor, die zun chst auf Ma nahmen der einzelnen Staaten der Zone beruhen, dann auf Ma nahmen der Gemeinschaft, d. h. auf der Effektivit t einer subregionalen Integration in der Cemac-Zone.
This book analyzes the problem of illegal immigration in the Cameroon-Gabon-Equatorial Guinea cross-border zone. The author presents the perverse effects of this phenomenon within the tri-border area, still considered as a zone of opulence in the Cemac space, which represents a channel of economic growth for the three border states and their populations in the sub-region. However, the dynamics or the flow of uncontrolled migratory movements in full expansion here are increasingly affecting the political, economic and social cooperation of the various state actors in the zone. It has been established that this phenomenon is due to socio-anthropological, economic and historical factors linked to the major players involved in this illicit activity, namely: the populations, the road and sea transporters and the coastguards. Faced with this situation, the author proposes ways of resolving the problem, based firstly on measures specific to each state in the zone, and secondly on community measures, namely the effectiveness of sub-regional integration in the Cemac zone.
Questo libro analizza il problema dell'immigrazione clandestina nell'area transfrontaliera Camerun-Gabon-Guinea Equatoriale. L'autore presenta gli effetti perversi di questo fenomeno nell'area tri-frontaliera, che ancora considerata una zona di opulenza nell'area CEMAC, rappresentando un canale di crescita economica per i tre Stati di confine e le loro popolazioni nella sub-regione. Tuttavia, la dinamica o il flusso dei movimenti migratori incontrollati, che qui sono in forte espansione, stanno incidendo sempre pi sulla cooperazione politica, economica e sociale dei vari attori statali dell'area. stato stabilito che questo fenomeno dovuto a fattori socio-antropologici, economici e storici legati ai principali attori coinvolti in questa attivit illecita, ovvero le popolazioni locali, i trasportatori su strada e via mare e le guardie costiere. Di fronte a questa situazione, l'autore propone dei modi per affrontarla, basati in primo luogo su misure specifiche per ogni Stato della zona, e in secondo luogo su quelle comunitarie, ovvero sull'efficacia dell'integrazione sub-regionale nella zona CEMAC.
Este livro analisa o problema da imigra o clandestina na zona transfronteiri a Camar es-Gab o-Guin Equatorial. O autor apresenta os efeitos perversos deste fen meno na zona da tr plice fronteira, que continua a ser considerada como uma zona de opul ncia no espa o da CEMAC, representando um canal de crescimento econ mico para os tr s Estados fronteiri os e para as suas popula es na sub-regi o. No entanto, a din mica ou o fluxo dos movimentos migrat rios descontrolados, que aqui se multiplicam, afectam cada vez mais a coopera o pol tica, econ mica e social dos diferentes actores estatais da zona. Verificou-se que este fen meno se deve a factores s cio-antropol gicos, econ micos e hist ricos ligados aos principais actores envolvidos nesta atividade ilegal, nomeadamente as popula es locais, os transportadores rodovi rios e mar timos e a guarda costeira. Perante esta situa o, o autor prop e formas de a enfrentar, baseadas, por um lado, em medidas espec ficas de cada Estado da zona e, por outro, nas medidas comunit rias, nomeadamente a efic cia da integra o sub-regional na zona CEMAC.
Niniejsza książka analizuje problem nielegalnej imigracji na obszarze przygranicznym Kamerun-Gabon-Gwinea R wnikowa. Autor przedstawia przewrotne skutki tego zjawiska na obszarze tr jgranicznym, kt ry nadal uważany jest za strefę dobrobytu w obszarze CEMAC, stanowiącą kanal wzrostu gospodarczego dla trzech państw granicznych i ich ludności w subregionie. Jednak dynamika lub przeplyw niekontrolowanych ruch w migracyjnych, kt re kwitną tutaj, w coraz większym stopniu wplywają na wsp lpracę polityczną, gospodarczą i spoleczną r żnych podmiot w państwowych na tym obszarze. Ustalono, że zjawisko to wynika z czynnik w spoleczno-antropologicznych, ekonomicznych i historycznych związanych z gl wnymi podmiotami zaangażowanymi w tę nielegalną dzialalnośc, a mianowicie z lokalną ludnością, przewoźnikami drogowymi i morskimi oraz strażą przybrzeżną. W obliczu tej sytuacji autor proponuje sposoby radzenia sobie z nią, oparte po pierwsze na środkach specyficznych dla każdego państwa w strefie, a po drugie na środkach wsp lnotowych, a mianowicie na skuteczności integracji subregionalnej w strefie CEMAC.
