This study provides a first comprehensive introduction to the political and economic thought of Johann Heinrich Gottlob von Justi (1717-1771). While previous scholarship saw Justi as quintessentially a German thinker, this analysis argues that his thought was a by-product of the broader European intellectual discourse on the political implications of modern trade. Writing between the conclusion of the War of the Austrian Succession (1748) and the end of the Seven Years War (1763) - when competition among European powers was sharply on the increase - Justi's aim was to create modern commercial monarchies in the larger states of the Holy Roman Empire that could equal the military strength, political standing and economic performance of England and France. Shedding fresh light on Justi's tortuous biography and complex oeuvre this study unveils the critical impact that French thinkers such as Fenelon, Saint-Pierre, d'Argenson and Montesquieu exerted on Justi's ideas and demonstrates that his economic thought was part and parcel of an innovative and comprehensive political reform plan for the entire European state system."

La machine explorer le temps de H. G. Wells est un classique de la science-fiction, une r f rence sur le th me du voyage dans le temps. Wells nous transporte en l'an 802 701, dans une soci t compos e des Elo s, qui vivent paisiblement dans une sorte de grand jardin d' den, se nourrissant de fruits et dormant en hauteur, car sous terre vit une autre esp ce descendant aussi des hommes, les Morlocks, qui ne supportent plus la lumi re force de vivre dans l'obscurit . La nuit, ils vont et viennent la surface en remontant par les puits, pour enlever des Elo s dont ils se nourrissent, devenus ainsi du b tail leur insu. Dans La machine explorer le temps, plusieurs fois adapt au cin ma, dont la derni re fois en 2002 par Simon Wells, arri re-petit-fils de H. G. Wells, le temps est la fois un pr texte pour d placer la lutte des classes et donc alerter... et il est aussi en quelque sorte un personnage part enti re, qui fascine, qui arbitre, qui transcende... Les Atemporels, une collection qui r unit des oeuvres qui ne vieillissent pas, qui ont une date de publication mais pas de date de p remption. Car elles seront encore lues et relues dans un si cle. Pr face et analyse par Jean-David Haddad.
Anhand detaillierter Einzelanalysen der fruhen -scientific romances- von H.G. Wells versucht der Verfasser deren Abgrenzung zur Utopie und zur Science Fiction, indem er sie auf dem Hintergrund der geistesgeschichtlichen und sozio-okonomischen Situation Englands um 1900 interpretiert und so als fiktionale Auseinandersetzung mit Sozialdarwinismus und Imperialismus hervorhebt. Die in diesen popularen Werken von Wells enthaltenen Spekulationen uber naturwissenschaftlich-technische Neuerungen gewinnen dadurch eine sie weit uber den rein erzahlerischen Kunstgriff hinaushebende Bedeutung als pragendes Moment zeitkritischer literarischer Aussage."
