• Etre ou ne pas être, telle est la question Shakespeare

  de sang dont Hamlet, avant de s'effondrer sur la scène, tirera lui-même la leçon: «And the rest is silence. » (Et le reste est silence). Parmi toutes ces hésitations qui sont celles d'Hamlet, il y en a une plus radicale que formule le monologue de l'acte V. Faut-il vivre ou renoncer à vivre? « To be or not to be: that is the question. » Ce premier vers est comme l'arbre qui cache la forêt d'un monologue au­ quel on a tro...

• WOMEN'S LIVES WILL CHANGE IN EVERY WAY

  Women in decision-making positions may also be important in creating a more peaceful society-at least until both sex roles are more humanized, and men feel less need to prove their masculinity with confrontation, toughness and even mass violence. Feminism brings something else to the poUtical scene that's very important: a sense that change must start at the bottom, organically. 1t may be attached to theory, of course, but radical or revo...

• Civil disobedience

  constitutional privilege to disobey a statute. Such an action, based on an accepted constitutional right, is not true civil disobedience. However, classification becomes more troublesome when someone breaks a law believing that the law should be declared unconstitutional, but strongly expecting that courts will disagree. This essay disregards this subtlety and concentrates on persons who lack any serious claim that their behaviour is protected by another, higher legal rule. People usually disobe...

• Discuss the ways in which Jamaica Kincaid explores Annie's relationship with her mother in the first two chapters

  parents have trouble expressing their parental affection especially physically either because the parent is imposing a kind of distance between him and the child, or simply because he is not comfortable being involved in this type of contact. From this part, love and affection are explicitly expressed in this: Annie's mother is very lovable and tactile with her daughter. During the early stages of childhood, children are very dependent of affection and a mother's love is also a first step to lov...

  whether his depiction of animal predators is correct. Do they really pursue individual interests to the total exclusion of group conventions? And if such apparent 'conventions' are simply a manifestation of their 'nature' , does this not dissolve the antithesis on which Callicles relies? It is also unclear whether human aggression is as natural as Callicles claims (he implies that everyone would imitate the superman if they could). Some would argue that, although we all possess egoistic driv...

• Church's theorem and the decision problem

  ¸-definable, that is, not definable in the ¸-calculus, a logical calculus invented by Church ( Lambda calculus ). To conclude that the set of valid formulas in first-order logic is not 'effectively' decidable, we need two additional facts. We need to equate validity in first-order logic with provability in a particular formal system, a result proved already by Gödel , but about which Church had some qualms due to the non-constructive nature of the proof. We also need to equate the mathe...

• Carolingian renaissance

  form imitated from Suetonius. In the mid-ninth century Lupus, Abbot of Ferrières , wrote elegant Latin letters which, in their concern for discovering and collating ancient texts, anticipate the interests of early modern humanists. Even Greek was studied in this period, especially by scholars of Irish origin such as Martin of Laon, Eriugena and Sedulius Scottus (also a fine Latin poet). Historians often present the role of the Carolingian renaissance in the history of philosophy in terms simpl...

• Mars Pathfinder - astronomy.

  Pathfinder and Sojourner also gathered engineering data for planning future Mars missions. Pathfinder entered Mars's atmosphere without first stopping in Mars orbit,an approach likely to be used by future landers, and its previously untried airbag system performed flawlessly.

Engineers predict that the next generation of Mars rovers will be able to travel thousandsof k...

• dr jekyll and mr hyde

  Stevenson wrote Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde at bornemouth, in England, in 1885, while convalescing from an illness. The original idea occured to him in a nightmare from which his wife awakened him. In fact, stevenson was disappointed that she had interrupted a « fine bogey-tale » he said. Originally, Stevenson's idea was to compose a simple horror story, but after reading the original version to his wife, she suggested more could be made of the tale.

• Boucher's Diana resting after her Bath, not a mythological painting !!!

  size. Mythological paintings were often painted on large canvases to symbolize the divinity and importance of the immortals depicted. The Rococo Movement is characterized by small canvases that were made to fit on wooden panels of smaller apartments, and “Diana Resting After Her Bath”, which measures 57 × 73 cm (22.4 × 28.7 in), would thus refer more to the characteristic of a genre painting than a mythological one. Furthermore, Diana is more sensual than a huntress, as she is nude....

• A period of political and economic stagnation. How valid is this assessment of the Brezhnev years?

  Stalin-like reaction and the stagnation the Soviet Union was in during the Brezhnev era.   Brezhnev's only main policy was his constitution of 1977, which replaced Stalin's constitution of 1936. Expanding in over a hundred articles and sub-sections, it roughly followed the same lines of Stalin's constitution but there were significant differences in content. It formally acknowledged the right of the people to cultivate their own private plots and hints at guaranteed freedoms of speech, assembly,...

• George Frideric Handel.

  Handel’s most important contribution to music history undoubtedly lies in his oratorios. Although the genre had existed in the 17th century, Handel seems to haveinvented the special type known as English oratorio, with its dazzling choruses. His influence on later generations can be seen most clearly in the history of the oratorio:Handel’s Messiah is one of only a few 18th-century works to remain in the performance repertory from its composer’s lifetime until today. The oratorios of later comp...
