• Le désir de comprendre de quoi est fait le monde qui les entoure a toujours excité la curiosité des hommes.

  La lumière La lumière fut l'un des sujets les plus sensibles dans le développement de la physique, d'une part comme support de la vision, qui est le principal canal de notre connaissance du monde, et comme vecteur d'informations venant d'endroits inaccessibles (les étoiles), d'autre part comme champ d'expérience privilégié pour les diverses théories du rayonnement. Le premier des quatre textes qui suivent relate l'étape cruciale où l'on a pris conscience du rôle que joue la lumière dans la vi...

To emphasize the woman’snakedness, Manet not only shows that she has recently disrobed (by painting her clothes in a heap nearby) but alsodepicts her male companions fully clothed. In addition, the woman stares directly and unabashedly at the viewer, makingus feel almost like voyeurs as we gaze back. Manet’s painting style–the flat figures, which look almost like cutouts, andloose brushwork–also bewildered a...

• HEGEL et l'histoire universelle

  Texte : Ici ou là, les hommes défendent leurs buts particuliers contre le droit général ; ils agissent librement. Mais ce quiconstitue le fondement général, l'élément substantiel, le droit n'en est pas troublé. Il en va de même pour l'ordre dumonde. Ses éléments sont d'une part les passions, de l'autre la Raison. Les passions constituent l'élément actif.Elles ne sont pas toujours opposées à l'ordre éthique ; bien au contraire, elles réalisent l'Universel. En ce quiconcerne la moral...

• Le loisir est-il le but véritable du travail ?

  Analyse du sujet ● Le sujet met en relation deux notions (loisir et travail), et nous demande si l'une constitue le but de l'autre. ● Le loisir : le loisir n'est pas l'inactivité, ou la paresse, mais une activité dans laquelle s'exprime une liberté.Il est l'occupation d'un temps libre. Le loisir est donc le contraire de la nécessité. ● Le travail : le travail est l'activité qui, reposant sur le besoin, transforme le monde extérieur pour pouvoir lesatisfaire. De ce point de vue...

  been created, information can be retrieved but not changed. Newer technologies allow ROMs to be semi-permanent—that is, the information can be changed, but ittakes several seconds to make the change.

• Millennium.

  Postmillennialism, also referred to as progressive millennialism, interprets the Bible less literally than premillennialism does. Postmillennialists regard the millennium as a1,000-year reign of Christian ideals that will end with the return of Christ. In this view, the millennium will not start suddenly through an apocalypse, but graduallythrough the efforts of human beings. Postmillennialists believe that through social reform and by upholding Christian ideals, the kingdom of God will be built...

• Cold War.

  With this, all the countries of Eastern Europe were under Communist control, and the creation of the Soviet bloc was complete. The events of 1948 contributed to agrowing conviction among political leaders in both the United States and the USSR that the opposing power posed a broad and fundamental threat to their nation’sinterests. The Berlin blockade and the spread of Communism in Europe led to negotiations between Western Europe, Canada, and the United States that resulted in the NorthAtlantic...

  which means that their body temperature depends on the temperature of the surrounding environment. Few species can tolerate temperatures below 4°C (40°F) orabove 40°C (104°F), and many species can survive only within a narrower range of temperatures. In addition, frogs’ thin, moist skin offers little protection againstwater loss, and when on land the animals must guard against drying out. Many frogs are active at night because temperatures are cooler and humidity is higher thanduring the day. In...

• HEGEL: Art et reproduction de la nature

  cohérente et de nouveaux critères. La méthode la plus simple consiste peut-être à repartir de chaque critiquehégélienne et de lui substituer une base positive. Dans un premier point, on critiquera donc la notion d'imitation, puison définira ce que doivent être les matières premières de l'art, et enfin on pourra peut-être, alors, essayer dedonner une nouvelle définition du but de l'esthétique.On peut dire que la base fondamentale de l'esthétique que Hegel critique c'est l'imitation.

  Part Two: Robinson was happy to be alive, he thanked God for saving his life. He had no clothes, no food and no drink, so R thought he was going to die of stavation or eaten by wild animals.

• Encyclopedia of Philosophy: Schopenhauer

  There are many different grades of will, and only the higher grades are accompanied by knowledge and self-determination.If, therefore, I say, the force which attracts a stone to the earth is according to its nature, in itself and apart fromall idea, will, I shall not be supposed to express in this opinion the insane opinion that the stone moves itself inaccordance with a known motive, merely because this is the way in which will appears in man.Will is the force which lives in the plant,...

• United Provinces of Central America.

  IV REUNION EFFORTS Efforts to reunite the Central American federation in the 1840s all failed. But unity was still seen as a desirable goal—to give the states more power when dealing withforeign nations and to tie together people with a common heritage. But as conservatives came to power in each of the states, they rejected a restored federation,associating the idea too closely with the hated Morazán and his liberal policies. Carrera’s Guatemala was the first formally to declare itself an inde...

He was also a great stylist and his books can stand beside those of Berkeley, Russell and the early Plato as among the more readable works of philosophy. 2 Time and duration The core of Bergson's philosophy, which, as he pointed out in a letter of 1915 ( 1972: 1148 ), every account of his philosophy must start from and constantly return to, on pain of distortion, is the 'intuition of duration' . Time, for Bergson, is of two fundamentally different kinds, or better, especially fo...

• Concepts

  suggested that concept possession need not consist in knowing a definition, but in appreciating the role of a concept in thought and practice. Moreover, he claimed, a concept need not apply to things by virtue of some closed set of features captured by a definition, but rather by virtue of ‘family resemblances' among the things, a suggestion that has given rise in psychology to ‘prototype' theories of concepts. Most traditional approaches to possession conditions have been concerned with t...

Is it answered?What if my house be troubled with a rat,And I be pleased to give ten thousand ducatsTo have it baned? What, are you answered yet?Some men there are love not a gaping pig,Some that are mad if they behold a cat,And others, when the bagpipe sings i'th'nose,Cannot contain their urine; for affection,Master of passion, sways it to the moodOf what it likes or loathes.

Dans le gouffre à jamais retomber éperdu; Et le lien sacré du service rendu, A travers l'ombre affreuse et la céleste sphère, Joint l'échelon de nuit aux marches de lumière. Hope is indeed the keynote of Hugo's poetry.

• From A Vindication of the Rights of Woman - anthology.

  Ignorance is a frail base for virtue! Yet, that it is the condition for which woman was organized, has been insisted upon by the writers who have most vehementlyargued in favour of the superiority of man; a superiority not in degree, but essence; though, to soften the argument, they have laboured to prove, with chivalrousgenerosity, that the sexes ought not to be compared; man was made to reason, woman to feel: and that together, flesh and spirit, they make the most perfect whole, byblending hap...
