Western Philosophy.

the popular belief in personal deities, but he failed to explain the way in which the familiar objects of experience could develop out of elements that are totally differentfrom them. Anaxagoras therefore suggested that all things are composed of very small particles, or “seeds,” which exist in infinite variety. To explain the way in whichthese particles combine to form the objects that constitute the familiar world, Anaxagoras developed a theory of cosmic evolution. He maintained that the activ...

Technology.

loose soil in this region, known as the Fertile Crescent, was easily scratched for planting, and an abundance of trees was available for firewood. By 5000 BC, farming communities were established in areas known today as Syria, Turkey, Lebanon, Israel, Jordan, Greece, and the islands of Crete and Cyprus. Agricultural societies in these places constructed stone buildings, used the sickle to harvest grain, developed a primitive plowstick, and advanced their skills inmetalworking. Trade in flint al...

Automobile.

Electric motors have been used to power automobiles since the late 1800s. Electric power supplied by batteries runs the motor, which rotates a driveshaft, the shaftthat transmits engine power to the axles. Commercial electric car models for specialized purposes were available in the 1980s. General Motors Corporation introduced amass-production all-electric car in the mid-1990s. Automobiles that combine two or more types of engines are called hybrids. A typical hybrid is an electric motor with ba...

Etre conscient de soi, est-ce se connaître?

Nous l'ignorons donc nous sommes conscients du désir sans en avoir la connaissance.Ces exemples vont donc dans le sens de la thèse évoquée, être conscient de soi, n'est pas se connaître mais plusse méconnaitre. En fait, être conscient de soi est une condition nécessaire pour se connaître mais non suffisante,car se connaître n'est-ce pas quelque chose d'évolutif, d'inachevé et surtout que l'on ne pourra jamais accomplir ? Dans cette dernière partie nous verrons si se connaître soi-mêm...

Physics I INTRODUCTION Physics, major science, dealing with the fundamental constituents of the universe, the forces they exert on one another, and the results produced by these forces.

Starting about 1665, at the age of 23, Newton enunciated the principles of mechanics, formulated the law of universal gravitation, separated white light into colors,proposed a theory for the propagation of light, and invented differential and integral calculus. Newton's contributions covered an enormous range of naturalphenomena: He was thus able to show that not only Kepler's laws of planetary motion but also Galileo's discoveries of falling bodies follow a combination of his ownsecond law of m...

Civil Rights Movement in the United States - U.

The Great Depression of the 1930s increased black protests against discrimination, especially in Northern cities. Blacks protested the refusal of white-owned businessesin all-black neighborhoods to hire black salespersons. Using the slogan “Don't Buy Where You Can't Work,” these campaigns persuaded blacks to boycott thosebusinesses and revealed a new militancy. During the same years, blacks organized school boycotts in Northern cities to protest discriminatory treatment of blackchildren. The bla...

Elementary Particles I INTRODUCTION Structure of Matter Modern physics has revealed successively deeper layers of structure in ordinary matter.

The most fundamental particles that make up matter fall into the fermion category. These fermions cannot be split into anything smaller. The particles that carry theforces acting on matter and antimatter are bosons called force carriers. Force carriers are also fundamental particles, so they cannot be split into anything smaller.These bosons carry the four basic forces in the universe: the electromagnetic, the gravitational, the strong (force that holds the nuclei of atoms together), and the wea...

Italy - country.

C Natural Resources Italy is poor in natural resources. Much of the land is unsuitable for agriculture because of mountainous terrain or unfavorable climate. Italy, moreover, lacks substantialdeposits of basic natural resources such as coal, iron, and petroleum. Natural gas is the country’s most important mineral resource. Other deposits include feldspar andpumice. Many of Italy’s mineral deposits on the islands of Sicily and Sardinia had been heavily depleted by the early 1990s. Italy is rich...

Afrique du Sud 1983-1984 Les impasses du "changement" L'Afrique du Sud est restée en 1983 la principale puissance de l'Afrique noire. Pour apprécier son évolution, au-delà de l'accent constant mis par les médias occidentaux sur la politique de "changement" du gouvernement Botha, il faut s'écarter de deux analyses simplificatrices: la première soutenant que l'évolution économique érode naturellement le système d'apartheid (exclusion politique de la majorité noire, régime raciste policier, surexpl...

Africa - history.

Africa’s other major mountainous regions occur at the northern and southern fringes of the continent. The Atlas Mountains, a system of high ranges, extend for 2,200 km(1,400 mi) across Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia, roughly parallel to the northern coast. These ranges enclose a number of broad inland basins and plateaus. In the west, theHigh (or Grand) Atlas contains Toubkal (4,165 m/ 13,665 ft), the highest peak of the system. Toward the east, the Atlas consists of two parallel ranges: the Tell...

French Canadian Nationalism - Canadian History.

The revolution ended in independence for the Americans, who named their new country the United States of America. In the aftermath, thousands of people who hadopposed the American Revolution migrated from what was now the United States to British North America. These people, known as the United Empire Loyalists, settledin the Maritimes, where they greatly increased the British majority over the Acadians, and in Québec. Some settled near francophone communities around Montréal andin the Eastern T...

Greenhouse Effect.

addition, humans cut down huge tracts of trees for lumber or to clear land for farming or building. This process, known as deforestation, can both release the carbonstored in trees and significantly reduce the number of trees available to absorb carbon dioxide. As a result of these human activities, carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is accumulating faster than Earth’s natural processes can absorb the gas. By analyzing airbubbles trapped in glacier ice that is many centuries old, scientists have d...

Arctic - Geography.

The Arctic is not a frozen desert devoid of life on land or sea, even during the cold, dark winter months. Spring brings a phenomenal resurgence of plant and animal life.Low temperatures are not always the critical element—moisture, the type of soil, and available solar energy are also extremely important. Some animals adapt well toArctic conditions; for instance, a number of species of mammals and birds carry additional insulation, such as fat, in cold months. Arctic summers with extended dayli...

Rock (mineral).

pressure mineral assemblage. In a sense, the rock is stuck in a state that is characteristic of its earlier high-temperature and high-pressure environment. Thus,metamorphic rocks carry with them information about the history of temperatures and pressures to which they were subjected. The size, shape, and distribution of mineral grains in a rock are called the texture of the rock. Many metamorphic rocks are named for their main texture. Textures giveimportant clues as to how the rock formed. As t...

Le développement technique transforme-t-il les hommes ?

En effet, la question qui était mise au concours était : Si le rétablissement dessciences et des art a contribué à épurer les mœurs ?

Memory (psychology).

memory span —how many items people can correctly recall in order. Researchers would show people increasingly long sequences of digits or letters and then ask them to recall as many of the items as they could. In 1956 American psychologist George Miller reviewed many experiments on memory span and concluded that peoplecould hold an average of seven items in short-term memory. He referred to this limit as “the magical number seven, plus or minus two” because the results of thestudies were so consi...

Turkey - country.

conjoncture = contexte immédiat peut expliquer le mécontentement accru de la population. Les révolutions ont des causes profondes mais sont déclenchées par un épisode ponctuel (ici l’interdiction d’un banquet républicains). En 1848, la France n’est pas aussi influente que sous Napoléon 1 mais elle est plus puissante qu’à sa chute. La France est un régime monarchique, comme la plupart des pays d’Europe. La monarchie française semble particulièrement stable (presque deux décennies au pouvoir)....

Peut-on penser l'écoulement du temps ?

Pour Platon, le temps caractérise le monde sensible, par opposition à l'éternité immuable. Comme le monde sensible est une copie imparfaite dumonde intelligible, le temps est une copie de la vraie réalité qu'est l'éternité.Le temps est le lieu du mouvant, du changeant, sur lesquels notre pensée n'apas de prise. En effet, penser une chose signifie, dans la perspectiveplatonicienne, la rapporter à son essence intelligible, par l'intermédiaire dulangage, qui permet de désigner les...

Marketing.

Where advertising reaches a mass audience, personal or direct selling focuses on one customer at a time. That kind of individual attention makes direct sellingexpensive, but it also makes it effective. As the costs of personal selling have risen, the utilization of salespeople has changed.

Salespeople are now used primarily where the products are complex and require detailed explanation, customized application, or careful negotiation over priceand paym...

disseminating popular music until the 1920s remained printed sheet music. By the late 19th century, the music-publishing business was centralized in New York City,particularly in an area of lower Manhattan called Tin Pan Alley. “After the Ball” (1892) by Charles K. Harris, the first popular song to sell 1 million copies—in this case, ofsheet music—inspired rapid growth in the music-publishing industry. Composers were hired to rapidly produce popular songs by the dozens, and the techniques ofFost...

Because of the high cost of elections and the short two-year term of office, members of the House campaign almost constantly. They spend much of their time raisingcampaign funds, and they frequently return to their districts to keep in touch with voters. Because the elections are so frequent, House members tend to pay closeattention to how their votes in Congress will be seen in the short term. House members tend to come from wealthier family backgrounds than average Americans. Few working class...

L'injonction " Deviens ce que tu es " s'applique-t-elle parfaitement à l'existence de l'Homme ?

Un appel à devenir un esprit libre, à accepter ce que l'on est Pourtant, ce qu'il faut comprendre, c'est que la philosophie de Nietzsche est un appel adressé à l'homme pours'assumer et que la valeur de sa philosophie réside non dans la correspondance avec la vérité. Il rejette d'ailleurs leconcept de vérité, en affirmant que cette dernière n'existe pas et que tout est question de point de vue. Le but desa philosophie est donc d'être utile, de pousser l'homme à l'action et de ce point de vue...
