Qu'un chat est à l'origine de la théorie de la physique quantique ? Que des matous furent espions pour la CIA ? Que son chat se promenant sur le piano a composé l'une des plus célèbres oeuvres de Scarlatti ? Connaissez-vous Mourka, le félin qui permit aux Russes de remporter la bataille de Stalingrad ? Ou bien Brillant, l'angora de Louis XV qui avait plus de privilèges que les courtisans du roi ? Les chats hantent les couloirs de l'Histoire. Evidemment, ce ne sont pas eux que l'on a retenu dans les manuels scolaires... Et pourtant, depuis l'Antiquité, des félins jouent parfois un rôle capital. Dans ce livre, on découvre d'innombrables anecdotes sur nos amis à quatre pattes qui ont parfois changé le cours de l'Histoire. Au-delà des félins célèbres, on y croise des chats qui furent alpinistes, musiciens, vedettes de cinéma, spationautes ou, en toute simplicité, de véritables dieux vivants !

Download or read book Pataphysica 4 written by Faustroll and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-02 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pataphysica 4 present the strange "conclusion" to Alfred Jarry's 1907 Symbolist novel The She-Dragon, Part 1 having appeared in Pataphysica 2 (iUniverse, 2004). It also holds the central, pivotal chapter of the novel, which describes a battle that, while entirely modern, reads like ancient myth, conjuring such texts as the Bhagavad-Gita and Homer's Iliad. Annotations highlight Jarry's alchemical symbolism (among other things), alchemy being the ancient "art and science" studied in secret by such modern scientist/philosophers as Gottfried Leibniz and Isaac Newton. Pataphysics is the science of imaginary solutions, and for Jarry, although there is no other imagination than the scientific, modern science has simply failed to keep up with the scientific imagination. Rounding out this otherwise rectangular issue are the works of several returning authors as well as some new ones. They provide additional musings on such themes as Jarry's alchemical/cosmological play The Pope's Mustardmaker, an amorous veteran of an internal war, microcosm and macrocosm, a fugitive writer apparently obsessed with conspiracy theories and baseball, a peculiar Grimoire on a new set of "Glorious Mysteries," and a terrifying invocation of the Thelemic Law of Rabelais (Jarry's literary "master") as adapted by Crowley. Strap on suitable eye protection and enjoy!
