Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Au IVe siècle av. J-C., Euclide jetait les bases de ce qui allait être la géométrie et notre vision de l'espace pur les deux mille cinq cents ans à venir. La mécanique newtonienne s'est emparée de ce modèle et a construit sur ces fondations la conception classique du mouvement, non sans succès (cf. l'impressionnante réussite de la loi de la gravitation universelle de Newton). Pourtant le triomphe de la physique classique n'allait pas durer : la découverte des phénomènes électromagnétiques et les premières explorations du monde microscopique donnèrent un coup fatal aux postulats de la mécanique classique. Très vite, les développements de la relativité et de la physique quantique apportèrent des modifications profondes de notre compréhension de l'espace et du temps, de la géométrie et du devenir de l'Univers. L'espace euclidien et absolu a cédé la place à un espace-temps relatif, courbe, quantifié et extensible comme une baudruche que les forges du Big Bang auraient gonflée en quelques fragments de nanosecondes. Finalement, après un siècle de nouvelle physique, que reste-t-il des notions d'espace et de temps que nous a léguées la physique classique ? Quel sens donné à l'univers et à l'idée qu'il ait pu avoir un commencement ? Ce livre tente d'expliquer, sans équations, en quoi les théories physiques du XXe siècle (la relativité restreinte et générale, la mécanique quantique, la théorie du Big Bang, la théorie quantique des champs, etc.) ont affecté notre conception de l'espace et du temps. Les grandes idées qui ont bouleversé la physique ce dernier siècle sont présentées en mettant en avant les enjeux physiques et parfois philosophiques qui ont guidé leurs concepteurs. Tout au long de l'ouvrage, le même esprit est respecté : souci de vulgarisation sans céder toutefois à la facilité. Les concepts fondamentaux sont introduits et expliqués à l'aide d'analogies accessibles par tout un chacun.

Download or read book Chercheurs de Dieux Dans L espace Public written by Eileen Barker and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originale, insolite, renaissante, l'action religieuse émergente bouscule les habitudes, ébranle les certitudes, construit ici, maintenant, l'autre monde. Peut-on courir le risque ? Voilà que la question se pose et se résout en rumeurs publiques, poursuites judiciaires et tensions scolaires, lesquelles mettent à nu des mécanismes inédits d'institutionnalisation de l'expérience religieuse en modernité groupes tactiques d'intervention, cellules gouvernementales de crise, commissions parlementaires, cercles technocratiques précurseurs d'une ingénierie pluraliste. Sur fond de traditions religieuses, nationales ou républicaines, avec la perspective de la menace sectaire, s'esquisse sous nos yeux un religieux correct, acceptable. Comment est-il possible aujourd'hui d'inscrire l'exceptionnel, l'originel, le merveilleux, le transcendant religieux dans le quotidienne ? Et dans quelle mesure, paradoxalement, les gestionnaires de dieux ne repoussent-ils pas toujours plus loin la frontière religieuse ? -- By their nature, emerging religions explore unfamiliar territory and probe unchartered regions of human creativity. For these same reasons, religious transactions that venture beyond the boundaries of traditional religious frontiers often rouse suspicion, anxiety or even fear among the general population. As new religious movements seek to carve out their own niche in society, public controversy and opposing beliefs can spark bitter debates, and can even lead to calls for state intervention. How then do new or borderline religious groups negotiate or mediate the building of public space? What impact can the media have on new religions? How does the law withstand the "creative destruction" of religious innovation? In this provocative collection of essays, twelve experienced specialists break new ground in the sociological study of religion. Publié en français
Download or read book The Tyrant s Writ written by Deborah Tarn Steiner and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covering material as diverse as curse tablets, coins, tattoos, and legal decrees, Deborah Steiner explores the reception of writing in archaic and classical Greece. She moves beyond questions concerning ancient literacy and the origins of the Greek alphabet to examine representations of writing in the myths and imaginative literature of the period. Maintaining that the Greek alphabet was not seen purely as a means of transcribing and preserving the spoken word, the author investigates parallels between writing and other signifiers, such as omens, tokens, and talismans; the role of inscription in religious rites, including cursing, oath-taking, and dedication; and perceptions of how writing functioned both in autocracies and democracies. Particularly innovative is the suggestion that fifth-century Greek historians and dramatists portrayed writing as an essential tool of tyrants, who not only issue written decrees but also "inscribe" human bodies with brands and cut up land with compasses and rules. The despotic overtones associated with writing inform discussion of its function in democracies. Although writing could promote equal justice, ancient sources also linked this activity with historical and mythical figures who opposed the populist regime. By examining this highly nuanced portrayal of writing, Steiner offers a new perspective on ancient views of written law and its role in fifth-century Athenian democracy. Originally published in 1994.

Download or read book Theatre Noise written by Lynne Kendrick and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2012-01-24 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a timely contribution to the emerging field of the aurality of theatre and looks in particular at the interrogation and problematisation of theatre sound(s). Both approaches are represented in the idea of ‘noise’ which we understand both as a concrete sonic entity and a metaphor or theoretical (sometimes even ideological) thrust. Theatre provides a unique habitat for noise. It is a place where friction can be thematised, explored playfully, even indulged in: friction between signal and receiver, between sound and meaning, between eye and ear, between silence and utterance, between hearing and listening. In an aesthetic world dominated by aesthetic redundancy and ‘aerodynamic’ signs, theatre noise recalls the aesthetic and political power of the grain of performance. ‘Theatre noise’ is a new term which captures a contemporary, agitatory acoustic aesthetic. It expresses the innate theatricality of sound design and performance, articulates the reach of auditory spaces, the art of vocality, the complexity of acts of audience, the political in produced noises. Indeed, one of the key contentions of this book is that noise, in most cases, is to be understood as a plural, as a composite of different noises, as layers or waves of noises. Facing a plethora of possible noises in performance and theatre we sought to collocate a wide range of notions of and approaches to ‘noise’ in this book – by no means an exhaustive list of possible readings and understandings, but a starting point from which scholarship, like sound, could travel in many directions.

Download or read book Around the Hearth written by Jérémy Lamaze and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From basic needs, such as lighting, heating or cooking, to symbolic or ritual engagement, hearths in indoor contexts serve as a focal point. This is especially evident, both spatially and architecturally, in structures containing central hearths. In assessing any gathering around a hearth, the types of social groups involved need to be determined and their interactions clearly assessed in each specific case. Beyond clearly domestic contexts, many rooms or buildings have been deemed religious or cultic places often based solely on the presence of a hearth, despite other possible interpretations. This volume appraises and contextualises diversity in practice centering on the hearth in the Aegean and, more widely, in areas of the Western Mediterranean closely connected to Greek civilization, notably through its colonies, revealing surprising similarities but also local adaptations. In the West, the use of the hearth often has a unique character arising from local adaptations born of indigenous practices. The combined approach presented here, detailing technical aspects of the hearths themselves, their architectural settings and any associated artefacts or furnishings, affords a rich spectrum for cross-cultural analysis between these Mediterranean regions.
