La « photo » évoque bien entendu Chloé. À ce point, le sens du dialogue est totalement construit.Ici, Vian a épuisé tous ses verbes introducteurs. On remarque qu'il ne se soucie pas de les varier : « dire » estutilisé dix-sept fois, relayé parfois par « demander » et « continuer ». On peut interpréter cela comme relevantd'une volonté de conserver la spontanéité des répliques de la « vraie » vie.« Il ne mange jamais ? demanda le chat » : le chat incarne bien un côté très terre à terre, plongé da...

In 2006 the Court upheld Oregon’s law permitting physician-assisted suicide. In a 6-to-3 decision,...

Sound

INTRODUCTION
Sound, physical phenomenon that stimulates the sense of hearing.
A fundamental law of harmony states that two notes an octave apart, when sounded together, produce a pleasant-sounding combination. Other combinations of notescan also be pleasing. Physically, an interval of a fifth consists of two notes, the frequencies of which bear the arithmetical ratio 3 to 2, and a major third, the ratio 5 to4. Fundamentally, the law of harmony states that two or more notes sound pleasant when played together if their frequencies bear small, whole number ratios; if thefreq...
