This book was released on 1981-06-30 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ecole Normale Supérieure was founded during the Revolutionary era to dominate the educational structure of France. During the Third Republic, the French academic elite trained at the Ecole Normale Supérieure greatly expanded its national role and enhanced its prestige and influence. In this book, the first full treatment of the social and political history of the Ecole Normale Supérieure in recent times, Robert J. Smith has examined the changing world of the normaliens under the Third Republic and their new, but temporary, cultural and political importance. His comparative study of the social origins, education, political ideas, and careers of the normaliens and students of other grandes écoles documents the segmented character of French elites and indicates the evolution of French society during this period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume treats a remarkable period in the history of science in France. The articles in the first of its two sections, concerned with patronage and institutions, explore the structures that fostered research and the diffusion of scientific and technological knowledge, not only in the great institutions under state control but also in the very different world of the independent academies and the many scientific and industrial societies in Paris and the provinces. The second section focuses on the physical sciences, in particular the physics of heat and the imponderable fluids, and their relations with experimental and technological practice. It contains studies of figures of outstanding importance in the history of French science, including J.H. Lambert, P.S. de Laplace, and Sadi Carnot. Taken together, the articles provide an unusually coherent picture of a nation's science over a period of a century, developing a methodological perspective that unites cognitive and social considerations. Cet ouvrage traite d'une période remarquable de l'histoire scientifique française. Les articles dans la première des deux sections, concernant le mécénat et les institutions, explorent les structures qui encourageaient la recherche et la diffusion des connaissances scientifiques et technologiques; ce, non seulement dans les grandes institutions sous contrà ́le étatique, mais aussi dans le monde très différent des académies indépendantes et des nombreuses sociétés scientifiques et industrielles à Paris et en province. La seconde section porte sur les sciences physiques, en particulier la physique thermique et les fluides impondérables, ainsi que leurs relations avec la pratique expérimentale et technologique. Elle contient des études de grands personnages d'une importance exceptionnelle dans l'histoire de la science française, comprenant: J.H. Lambert, P.S. de Laplace et Sadi Carnot. Dans leur ensemble, ces textes fournissent une image cohérente

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from École Normale Supérieure: An Historical Sketch Before recording the actual founding of the institution under study it will be necessary to state a few facts as to existing conditions which really led to its founding. In spite of the fact already stated that from the very beginning the F rench people have paid much attention to educational matters, and even that important educational movements have originated among them, it is true that prior to the Revolution the education of the French people had ever been in the hands 'oi the church. By means of the various teaching congregations, notably the Jesuits, Christian Brothers and Oratorians, the great educational work of the country was being done. Not till Revolutionary times did France as a nation really try, strongly and effectively, to face the problem of the edu cation of her people.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second collection of studies by Maurice Crosland focuses on the differences in the style and organisation of scientific activity in Britain and France in the 18th and early 19th centuries. There is a particular focus on chemistry and the work of Lavoisier and his colleagues and the great mathematician Laplace. This is complemented by a comparative exploration of the practice of early 'physics' and chemistry and their different reliance on laboratories, raising the question of whether chemistry provided a model for other sciences, both through the construction of pioneering laboratories and in establishing early schools of research.
