• psychothérapie - Mécedine.

  D’autres disciples de Freud s’opposent à lui sur des points importants de la théorie et de la technique thérapeutique et fondent leurs propres écoles. 5.1 Jung Une école influente est celle du psychiatre suisse Carl Gustav Jung, pour lequel Freud a exagéré l’importance des instincts sexuels en tant que moteur du comportement ;l’individu doit aussi réaliser ses potentiels non sexuels, sous peine de névrose. Jung élabore la psychothérapie analytique, qui tient compte du caractère de l’individu(in...

• La Controverse De Valladolid

  sur place. Expert juriste et théologien reconnu, son intervention au cours de la deuxième partie de la controverse(mi-avril, mi-mai 1551), permettra de clarifier le débat, au détriment semble-t-il, de Las Casas. Il est en effet acquisà la cause de Sépulveda. La controverse de Valladolid n'a pas seulement consisté en une réunion de quatre jugesreligieux (cinq si l'on compte l'évêque, présent par intermittences et silencieux la plupart du temps), mais égalementà la présence d'administrateurs et ju...

• ponge

  choses s'imposent avec la même force en tant qu'objets de prédilection de l'expérience poétique, et notamment en tant qu'« objets naturels » pour ainsi dire. On comprendra alors la dimension essentiellement transitive de l'écriture de Ponge dont tout l'effort consiste à saisir les uns, à manipuler les autres, le plus justement possible. Or cette écriture, en d'autres textes, se retourne sur elle-même, et se prend comme objet. 3 « Le parti-pris des choses » exige une véritable « rage de l'express...

• Sistema inmunológico - ciencias de la naturaleza.

  Las citoquinas son compuestos solubles, responsables en gran parte de la regulación de la respuesta inmunológica. Si son segregadas por los linfocitos, reciben el nombrede linfoquinas; si son segregadas por los monocitos, se denominan monoquinas. Algunas citoquinas amplifican o incrementan una respuesta inmunológica que está encurso, otras hacen que las células proliferen, y otras pueden suprimir una respuesta inmunológica en funcionamiento. El sistema inmunológico, al igual que otros sistemasco...

• Inuit.

  VII HOUSING, TRANSPORTATION, AND CLOTHING Inuit homes are of two kinds: walrus or sealskin tents for summer and huts or houses for winter. Winter houses are usually made of stone, with a driftwood orwhalebone frame, chinked and covered with moss or sod. The entrance is a long, narrow passage just high enough to admit a person crawling on hands and knees.During long journeys some Canadian Inuit build igloos, winter houses of snow blocks piled in a dome shape (the term igloo comes from the I...

• mathématiques - mathématiques.

  autres problèmes mathématiques célèbres apparaissent au cours de ce siècle : diviser un angle en trois angles égaux et construire un cube dont le volume est le double d’un cube donné. Ces trois problèmes seront résolus à l’aide d’instruments beaucoup plus complexes qu’une règle et un compas. Ce n’est qu’au XIX e siècle que l’on démontrera qu’il est impossible de les résoudre au moyen de ces deux instruments. Dans la seconde moitié du Ve siècle av. J.-C., une découverte dérangeante est faite :...

• grecque, littérature.

  2. 2 L'histoire Dans la première moitié du Ve siècle av. J.-C. apparaissent la prose et l'histoire. C'est à Hérodote, « père de l'histoire », que nous devons une chronique des guerres médiques (500-449 av. J.-C) ainsi qu'une une profusion d'informations sur l'Antiquité grecque contenues dans son Histoire. Mais Thucydide reste le premier grand prosateur de la période attique et son Histoire de la guerre du Péloponnèse le révèle comme le premier historien critique. L'œuvre de Xénophon illus...

• Badminton.

  Once play has started, players tend to hit straight, low-flying shots called drives. When the shuttle remains close to the center of the court, net shots can be a goodoption. Net shots can be hard-hit or delicate. They are aimed at the front area of the opponent’s court, forcing the opponent to play the shot close to the net. If the opponent manages to return a net shot, the return must be hit high to clear the net. This gives the player a chance for a smash—the deadliest attacking stroke inbadm...

• Psychoanalysis.

  A cornerstone of modern psychoanalytic theory and practice is the concept of anxiety, which institutes appropriate mechanisms of defense against certain dangersituations. These danger situations, as described by Freud, are the fear of abandonment by or the loss of the loved one (the object), the risk of losing the object's love,the danger of retaliation and punishment, and, finally, the hazard of reproach by the superego. Thus, symptom formation, character and impulse disorders, andperversions,...

• Turbine.

  steam turbine has supplanted the reciprocating engine as a prime mover in large electricity-generating plants and is also used as a means of jet propulsion. Steam turbines are used in the generation of nuclear power and in nuclear ship propulsion. They operate with fuel-fired boilers for power generation. In cogenerationapplications requiring both process heat (heat used in an industrial process) and electricity, steam is raised at high pressure in the boiler and extracted from the turbineat th...

• Uranus (planet) - astronomy.

  V COMPOSITION AND STRUCTURE A Interior of Uranus Uranus contains mostly rock and water, with hydrogen and helium (and trace amounts of methane) in its dense atmosphere. Astronomers believe that Uranus, likeNeptune, formed from the same material—principally frozen water and rock—that composes most of the planet’s moons. As the planet grew, pressures andtemperatures in the planet’s interior increased, heating the planet’s frozen water into a hot liquid. Uranus probably has a relatively small roc...

• Horse - biology.

  Horses reach sexual maturity at about one and a half years. The estrous cycle in the mare—a mature female horse—typically lasts 21 days. During the first five days ofthe cycle, the mare is usually receptive to mating. The estrous cycle stops during winter and resumes in the spring, which is the start of the breeding season. Astallion—a mature male horse—approaching a mare in estrus engages in various courtship rituals. These include uttering nickering sounds and sniffing and licking themare’s ge...

• Carbon - chemistry.

  Graphite is black and slippery and conducts electricity. In graphite, the atoms form planar, or flat, layers. Each layer is made up of rings containing six carbon atoms.The rings are linked to each other in a structure that resembles the hexagonal mesh of chicken wire. Each atom has three sigma bonds (with 120° between any two ofthe bonds) and belongs to three neighboring rings. The fourth electron of each atom becomes part of an extensive pi bond system. Graphite conducts electricity,because th...

• Soil. I INTRODUCTION Soil, the loose material that covers the land surfaces of

  an exchange between plants and the atmosphere, as oxygen diffuses into the soil and is used by roots for respiration. In turn, the resulting carbon dioxide diffusesthrough pore spaces and returns to the atmosphere. This exchange is most efficient in soils with a high degree of porosity. For farmers, gardeners, landscapers, andothers with a professional interest in soil health, the process of aeration—making holes in the soil surface to permit the exchange of air—is a crucial activity.

• Nuclear Weapons.

  Regardless of the method used to attain a supercritical assembly, the chain reaction proceeds for about a millionth of a second, liberating vast amounts of heat energy.The extremely fast release of a very large amount of energy in a relatively small volume causes the temperature to rise to tens of millions of degrees. The resultingrapid expansion and vaporization of the bomb material causes a powerful explosion. VI PRODUCTION OF FISSILE MATERIAL Much experimentation was necessary to make the p...

• Whale - biology.

  III BEHAVIOR OF WHALES Studies of whales in captivity have taught scientists much about the complex social behavior of whales. Since the late 1980s, advances in the use of satellite trackingsystems have also broadened opportunities for scientists to observe how whales behave in the wild. A Swimming and Diving Whales swim by making powerful up-and-down movements of the tail flukes, which provide thrust. The power comes from body muscles that flex the lower spine upand down in a wavelike motion...

• Boxing.

  C Offensive Techniques To be effective, boxers must have an assortment of punches that are coordinated with their footwork. Less powerful punches often serve the important role of settingup the fighter’s chief “weapons,” as boxing analysts sometimes call a boxer’s main offensive skills. C1 Feinting Moving the hands or head to confuse an opponent is called feinting. A smart boxer will first test the opponent by trying different feints, noting the reaction to each onebefore deciding which will b...

  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...

• Le bonheur consiste-t-il à pouvoir consommer toujours plus ?

  CUNY Jérémy ; TS2 10/01/2012 La société dans laquelle nous vivons aujourd’hui nous incite à penser que le bonheur serait relatif à une certaine « chance », tout en se résumant aux plaisirs, c’est-à-dire en la satisfaction de nos désirs matérialistes.
