This book was released on 2008 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays contained in this volume derive from a high-level Workshop organized by the Hague Academy of International Law to determine whether the legal fundamentals that were established a century ago remain relevant today or whether they have been affected by the requirements of today's world. The world of a century ago only faintly resembles the world in which we now live, and it is therefore legitimate to ask whether the rules laid down in 1907 respond to the needs of 2007. How can it be disputed that the requirement for peace, law, the settlement of disputes, and humanitarian principles still exists, and even more emphatically than in the past? But given the new constraints with which our world is faced -- terrorism, degradation of the environment, the exacerbation of under-development in certain States, and food and energy crises -- and given the new imbalances that are appearing around the emerging powers, new forms of development, and the ubiquity of new technologies, there is a clear need for reform. The question is whether, in the name of such requirements, it is now possible to depart from certain principles that can be viewed as fundamental achievements. To what extent do the great achievements dating from the dawn of the last century survive among the rules applicable to the century that is now beginning, without excluding the developments and reforms that are necessary in a world that is so different from the world a century ago? Ce volume contient les communications et les débats concernant un colloque de haut niveau organisé par l'Académie de droit international de La Haye afin de déterminer si les fondamentaux juridiques établis au siècle dernier demeurent d'actualité de nos jours ou s'ils ont au contraire été affectés par les exigences du monde contemporain. En effet, celui-ci n'a plus grandchose à voir avec celui d'autrefois et présente des besoins plus importants que jamais en termes de paix, de droit, de règlement des différends et de principes humanitaires. Il semble donc légitime de s'interroger sur la validité qu'il y a à transposer à notre époque des règles énoncées en 1907.

Download or read book The Rise and Fall of the British Nation written by David Edgerton and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is usual to see the United Kingdom as an island of continuity in an otherwise convulsed and unstable Europe; its political history a smooth sequence of administrations, a story of building a welfare state and coping with decline. But what if Britain's history was approached from a different angle? What if we wrote about it with as we might write the history of Germany, say, or the Soviet Union, as a story of power, and of transformation? David Edgerton's major new book breaks out of the confines of traditional British national history to reveal an unfamiliar place, subject to radical discontinuities. Out of a liberal, capitalist, genuinely global power of a unique kind, there arose from the 1940s a distinct British nation. This was committed to internal change, making it much more like the great continental powers. From the 1970s it became bound up both with the European Union and with foreign capital in new ways. Such a perspective produces new and refreshed understanding of everything from the nature of British politics to the performance of British industry. Packed with surprising examples and arguments, The Rise and Fall of the British Nationgives us a grown-up, unsentimental history, one which is crucial at a moment of serious reconsideration for the country and its future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wissenschaftsgeschichte kann sich heute nicht mehr damit begnügen, den Fortschritt der Erkenntnisse zu beschreiben. Vielmehr gilt es, den Blick auf die spezifischen Praktiken der Wissenschaftler zu richten und die kulturellen und gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhänge zu analysieren, in denen bestimmte Wissenschaften entwickelt und verändert wurden. In diesem Band wird Wissenschaft als soziale und kulturelle Praxis untersucht, als ein gesellschaftliches Element unter anderen. Wie wird Wissenschaft produziert und angeeignet? Welche Schritte sind zurückzulegen, bis ein wissenschaftliches Produkt, etwa in Form einer Publikation, gestaltet ist? Welche Verfahrensweisen werden gewählt, um das Ergebnis von der Subjektivität des Forschers abzulösen und es auf die Ebene wissenschaftlicher 'Objektivität' zu heben? Die Autorinnen und Autoren dieses Bandes befassen sich mit so verschiedenen Wissenschaften wie Biologie und Geschichte, Medizin, Ethnographie und Kriminologie in der Periode, in der sich 'moderne Wissenschaft' herausbildete. In übergreifenden Darstellungen und in detaillierten Fallstudien durchbrechen sie immer wieder die Grenzen einzelner Disziplinen, stellen neue Ansätze vor und erproben ungewohnte Fragestellungen.

Download or read book Salvator Rosa in French Literature written by James Patty and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2005-01-31 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Salvator Rosa (1615–1673) was a colorful and controversial Italian painter, talented musician, a notable comic actor, a prolific correspondent, and a successful satirist and poet. His paintings, especially his rugged landscapes and their evocation of the sublime, appealed to Romantic writers, and his work was highly influential on several generations of European writers. James S. Patty analyzes Rosa’s tremendous influence on French writers, chiefly those of the nineteenth century, such as Stendhal, Honoré de Balzac, Victor Hugo, George Sand, and Théophile Gautier. Arranged in chronological order, with numerous quotations from French fiction, poetry, drama, art criticism, art history, literary history, and reference works, Salvator Rosa in French Literature forms a narrative account of the reception of Rosa’s life and work in the world of French letters. James S. Patty, professor emeritus of French at Vanderbilt University, is the author of Dürer in French Letters . He lives in Nashville, Tennessee.
Download or read book The Sounds of Early Cinema written by Richard Abel and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2001-10-03 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sounds of Early Cinema is devoted exclusively to a little-known, yet absolutely crucial phenomenon: the ubiquitous presence of sound in early cinema. "Silent cinema" may rarely have been silent, but the sheer diversity of sound(s) and sound/image relations characterizing the first 20 years of moving picture exhibition can still astonish us. Whether instrumental, vocal, or mechanical, sound ranged from the improvised to the pre-arranged (as in scripts, scores, and cue sheets). The practice of mixing sounds with images differed widely, depending on the venue (the nickelodeon in Chicago versus the summer Chautauqua in rural Iowa, the music hall in London or Paris versus the newest palace cinema in New York City) as well as on the historical moment (a single venue might change radically, and many times, from 1906 to 1910). Contributors include Richard Abel, Rick Altman, Edouard Arnoldy, Mats Björkin, Stephen Bottomore, Marta Braun, Jean Châteauvert, Ian Christie, Richard Crangle, Helen Day-Mayer, John Fullerton, Jane Gaines, André Gaudreault, Tom Gunning, François Jost, Charlie Keil, Jeff Klenotic, Germain Lacasse, Neil Lerner, Patrick Loughney, David Mayer, Domi-nique Nasta, Bernard Perron, Jacques Polet, Lauren Rabinovitz, Isabelle Raynauld, Herbert Reynolds, Gregory A.

Download or read book The Classical Foundations of Modern Historiography written by Arnaldo Momigliano and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1990 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, at last, are the long-awaited Sather Classical Lectures of the great historian Arnaldo Momigliano, In a masterly survey of the origins of ancient historiography, Momigliano captures those features of an ancient historian's work that not only gave it importance in its own day but also encouraged imitation and exploitation in later centuries. He reveals the extent to which Greek, Persian, and Jewish historians influenced the Western historiographic tradition, and then goes on to examine the first Roman historians and the emergence of national history. In the course of his exposition, he traces the development of antiquarian studies as distinctive branch of historical research from antiquity to the modern period, discusses the place of Tacitus in historical thought, and explores the way in which ecclesiastical historiography has developed a tradition of its own. All these lectures illustrate Momigliano's unrivaled ability to combine the study of classical texts and the history of classical scholarship. First delivered in 1962, the lectures were revised during the next fifteen years and then held for annotation that was never completed. They are now published from the author's manuscripts, collated and checked by Momigliano's literary executor, Anne Marie Meyer, of the Warburg Institute, with a foreword by Riccardo Di Donato, of the University of Pisa. The text is printed as the author left it. Sather Classical Lectures, 54
