Il colloquio poetico tra Paul Celan e Benjamin Fondane a partire da Norman Manea
No full textIl presente articolo si propone di analizzare e di interpretare alcune opere di due poeti ebrei romeni, Paul Celan e Benjamin Fondane, sulla base di ciò che la critica romena contemporanea ha scritto su di loro. Sebbene i due poeti non abbiano mai avuto l’opportunità di conoscersi, Norman Manea (anche lui scrittore romeno di origini ebraiche) li pone a confronto nel suo libro "Al di là della montagna" in un colloquio poetico. Attraverso l’evocazione dei loro mondi e della loro arte, l’autore di questo libro riabilita e restituisce all’insensibile società attuale i valori dell’ascolto e dell’attenzione a partire da un incontro immaginario tra i due straordinari poeti che hanno segnato profondamente il Novecento europeo
Bewusst im Paradies: Kitsch und Reflexivität
No full textIm Gegensatz zu Kunst gilt Kitsch als aufdringlich und wenig reflexiv. Doch ist diese Entgegensetzung nicht zu einfach gedacht? Könnte es nicht zahlreiche Zwischenstufen der Reflexivität geben? Thomas Küpper geht diesen Fragen nach und diskutiert dazu verschiedene Positionen aus Literatur, Philosophie, Film und Fernsehen, von Walter Benjamin bis André Rieu. Dabei zeigt er auf, dass Kitsch bestimmte Formen von Reflexivität braucht, um dem Publikum heile Welten, große Gefühle und kleine Fluchten bieten zu können: Wie beim Fiktionspakt im Sinne von Samuel Taylor Coleridge geht das Publikum einen Pakt mit dem Kitsch ein
Les processus de transfert d’eau et de dioxyde de carbone dans l’épikarst : aide à la conservation des grottes ornées par le développement de nouvelles méthodologies pour l'étude de l'environnement des cavités
No full textIl est communément admis que la recharge des aquifères carbonatés est contrôlée par la zone non saturée, siège d’une mise à l’équilibre des phases liquides, solides et gazeuses. L’épikarst, zone superficielle de ces aquifères, recueille les pluies efficaces et les transfère en profondeur via une double porosité de fissure et de fracture. Des épandages détritiques sablo-argileux fossilisent souvent les paléo-reliefs, changeant ainsi les caractéristiques des zones d’infiltration. Toutefois, les données sur ces dépôts superficiels sont rares, et leur impact sur les modalités de recharge en contexte karstique est aujourd’hui mal connu et peu décrit.La célèbre grotte préhistorique ornée de Lascaux offre une fenêtre d’observation à l’intérieur de l’épikarst et constitue ainsi un site privilégié pour le suivi des processus de transferts. La grotte fait partie d’un réseau karstique fossile partiellement comblé par du matériel détritique sablo-argileux. Les parties basses de la cavité montrent des fortes teneurs en CO2 dans l’air, supérieures à 8% (80 000 ppmv) lors de certaines périodes estivales. Cette thèse propose une étude des caractéristiques de l’infiltration en milieu karstique grâce au suivi des variations chimiques et isotopiques d’une émergence épikarstique au plafond de l’entrée de la grotte. Les principaux objectifs sont la compréhension de la dynamique des fluides en transit dans l’épikarst, la recherche de la source des fortes teneurs en CO2 ainsi que la détermination du rôle des épandages détritiques dans les modalités de recharge de l’aquifère karstique.Après avoir mener une étude approfondie de l’environnement géologique et géomorphologique du site, l’analyse hydroclimatique, combinée au suivi bimensuel de la chimie et des variations isotopiques des eaux épikarstiques, a permis d’investiguer le fonctionnement de la zone d’infiltration du karst d’un point de vue des transferts de masse.Les premières observations montrent que l’émergence épikarstique n’est pas pérenne avec un tarissement qui débute au début de l’été. Le système nécessite environ 250 mm de recharge automnale pour se réactiver. Le signal 18O à l’émergence est fortement amorti comparé au signal 18O dans les pluies ce qui démontre la création d’une réserve épikarstique qui conduit à l’homogénéisation chimique des eaux. Ainsi, les transferts de masse sont lents dans ce système caractérisé par un comportement de type fissuré et non karstique. Les données de 13C collectées à l’émergence permettent de retracer les conditions physico-chimiques qu’ont rencontrées les eaux au cours de leur transit. Elles montrent différentes origines possible de l’infiltration et révèlent des phénomènes de dégazage – précipitation lors des périodes de fortes pluies.De plus, les eaux épikarstiques sont fortement sursaturées vis-à-vis de la calcite et leur forte minéralisation résulte de la mise à l’équilibre avec une pCO2 importante (5% en moyenne). De telles valeurs ne correspondent pas à la production de CO2 du sol. L’autre origine supposée est les épandages détritiques sablo-argileux où des teneurs importantes en CO2 ont été mesurées (pCO2air de 4 à 8%). De plus, la présence d’eau dans ces niveaux suggère que le système est en partie alimenté par ces formations. Ainsi, le transit des eaux au travers de milieux aux conditions physico-chimiques très contrastés pourrait être à l’origine de la sursaturation des eaux qui entrent dans la cavité.Enfin, l’étude montre que les épandages détritiques tiennent deux rôles majeurs dans les processus d’infiltration des eaux : (i) ils participent à leur homogénéisation en les stockant proche du sol et (ii) ils fournissent un fort potentiel de karstification au système.It is widely recognized that the recharge of deep carbonated aquifers is controlled by a non saturated zone in which liquids, solids and gases are exchanged to attain equilibrium. The epikarstic zone, which represents the bottom of these aquifers, collects the efficient rain waters and transfers them deeper through a dual fractured and fissured porosity. Sandy-clayey detritic coatings are often observed to fossilize the paleo-relief changing the features of the infiltration zones. However, field data on these superficial deposits are sparse and their impact on the recharge modalities in karstic context is not yet well known and described.The famous prehistoric painted cave of Lascaux (France) provides a window into the epikarstic system and offers a privileged environment for the monitoring of transfer processes. The Lascaux cave is part of a fossil karstic network partly filled with detritic material and it is known to have high CO2 concentrations, greater than 8% (80,000 ppmv) in some summer periods, when measured in the air of the lower parts of the cave. Here, we study the epikarstic seepage traits monitoring the chemical and isotopic variations in waters which seep from the entrance roof of the cave. The aims of this work are to understand the dynamics of the fluids in the epikarstic system, to find the source of the high CO2 concentrations measured into the cave and to understand how the detritic coatings impact on the recharge modalities. After carried out an in-depth geological and geomorphological study of the site, the use of hydroclimatic analysis combined with the semi-monthly hydrochemical and isotopic monitoring of the epikarstic waters allowed us to investigate the karstic infiltration zone functioning in term of matter transfer. First, we observed that the epikarstic emergence is non perennial and dries up at the beginning of summer. The system needs an approximately 250 mm recharge in autumn before seeing flows at the emergence. The 18O signal at the emergence is highly amortized compared to the rain 18O signal which reveals the creation of an epikarstic water table that chemically homogenises waters. Thus, the mass transfers are slow in this system characterized by a fissured and nonkarstic behaviour type. The 13C data obtained at the epikarstic emergence seem to characterize the physicochemical conditions of the environments in which waters circulate during their transit in the system. They confirm the possible various origins of waters and reveal degassing – precipitation phenomena during rising periods.Moreover, épikarstic waters are always supersaturated with respect to the calcite and the the high bicarbonates and calcium concentrations result from water equilibrate with an important pCO2 at saturated state (5% on average). Such values of pCO2 do not correspond to the soil CO2 production. The other supposed origin is the sandy clayey detritic formations where we measured important pCO2 (data range from 4 to 8% in the atmosphere of the coatings). Furthermore, the presence of water in the sandy levels of the coatings suggests that the system can be partly fed by these formations. The transit of water through two physicochemicaly highly contrasted environments would be at the origin of the general flows supersaturation state in the cave.Finally, the study shows that the detritic coatings are involved in two aspects of the epikarstic waters run-off conditions: (i) they homogenize them while retaining near to the soil and (ii) give to them a very high karstification potential
Art. XXVIII.—The Author of the Life of <u>Sh</u>āh Isma'īl Ṣafavī
No full textSince writing the letter on this subject which appears in the January number of the J.R.A.S. I have examined the British Museum MS. Or. 3,248 more carefully, and have obtained a clue to its authorship. Dr. Rieu and Professor Denison Ross considered the work to be anonymous, and regarded the name at the end—Muḥammad ‘Alī, son of Nūra—as being probably that of the owner or copyist. I am inclined to think that it is the name of the author, and that the work is more recent and less valuable than has hitherto been supposed. No doubt the writer has used some old records, and it would appear from a marginal note that a manuscript called the Qissa Ṣafavi, and which seems to have been lost, was the basis of the work. It is also likely that he used the TārīkhShāhī of Abdullah Marwārid, but I think that Or. 3,248 cannot have been put together earlier than the first half of the seventeenth century. We know from Mr. Denison Ross's paper in the J.R.A.S. for April, 1896, that the work must have been composed, in whole or in part, after 946 A.H. (or 1539), as it records the death of Muḥammad Zamān Mīrzā, which occurred in that year during the flight after Humāyūn's defeat at Causā by Sher Shāh. But there are two marginal notes in the manuscript which have hitherto escaped notice, and which show, I think, that the work must have been written at a still later period, and also that the author did not expect or intend that he should remain anonymous. These notes are not perfectly intelligible, for the margins have been clipped in binding (before the MS. came into the Museum), and consequently some important words are missing, but their general purport can be understood.</jats:p
Itinéraires socio-professionnels et rapports de sexe en agriculture
No full textPlusieurs recherches sur le terrain, dans la région Midi-Pyrénées en France, alliant des méthodes d'enquête complémentaires (questionnaires, entretiens biographiques) m'ont permis de saisir le fonctionnement des rapports sociaux de sexe dans la constitution des itinéraires professionnels des agricultrices. À l'œuvre dans l'ensemble des instances socialisatrices (famille, école), ces rapports sociaux de sexe impriment une professionnalité différente pour les hommes et pour les femmes. Cependant, malgré les obstacles juridiques qui pénalisent les femmes dans l'accès au métier, il reste au quotidien un espace de possibles que certaines agricultrices vont utiliser pour développer des stratégies d'autonomie. Elles deviennent ainsi les actrices de leur propre destin.Several field research projects in the Midi-Pyrénées area in France, grounded on complementary methods of inquiry (i.e. questionnaires, life-history approach) have enabled the author to assess the impact of gender on the building up of women farmers' occupational roles. Operating in all socializing institutions (family, school), gender has different effects on men's and women's occupational roles. However, despite the legal obstacles hampering their entry into the profession, women farmers still have some leeway which certain of them use to develop autonomy strategies. They thus take their destinies into their own hands

Jawâhir-alasrâr wa Zawâhir-alanwâr (جواهر الاسرار و زواهر الانوار).
The first half of one of the oldest commentaries, perhaps the oldest of all, on the mathnawî in form of a detailed analysis of the poem, by Maulânâ Kamâl-aldîn Ḥusain bin Ḥasan of Khwârizm, who died A.H. 840 (A.D. 1436, 1437) or 845 (A.D. 1441, 1442); the first date is given in Ḥ. Khalfa v. p. 375, the second ib., vi. p. 90; comp. on this work, Bodleian Cat., Nos. 666 and 667; Rieu ii. p. 588; W. Pertsch, Berlin Cat., pp. 793 and 794, and A. Sprenger, Catal., p. 493. The author had previously compiled a collection of discourses on the mathnawî, entitled كنوز الحقائق فى رموز الدقائق. The present copy, which, like all the copies extant, comprises the first three daftars only, contains neither author’s name nor date; it only gives the title on fol. 6a, ll. 7 and 8, and the name of the prince, to whom the commentary was dedicated, Nâṣir-aldîn Abû-almanâḳib Ibrâhîm Sulṭân, the ruler of Khwârizm, on fol. 5b, l. 13. From other copies we learn that the second daftar was commenced A.H. 834 (A.D. 1430, 1431); the author’s spiritual guide was Khwâjah Abû-alwafâ, who died A.H. 835 (A.D. 1431, 1432), see Rieu, loc. cit. There is also wanting in this copy the preliminary discourse in ten maḳâlas, the headings of which in Persian are given in the Bodleian Cat., loc. cit., and the contents in English by Rieu.

Author manuscript, published in "" A Service-Oriented Approach for Model Management
No full textAbstract. In the Software Engineering (SE) domain, the Model Driven Engineering (MDE) 1 paradigm focuses on using models as main software artifacts to provide a full description of software systems and on automating model manipulation with tools. Model management concerns a set of features allowing representing, creating, storing and manipulating models. Nowadays, the needs of models designers in terms of management process and products are diverse. Modeling tools are not complete because there is no consensus about models needs and uses. To remedy the heterogeneity and the functional limitations of models management tools, we propose a service-oriented approach for model management for the creation of modeling environments adapted to the needs of designers. The considered needs are related in two abstract levels: the operational and the organizational level

Maḥbûb-alḳulûb (محبوب القلوب).
A collection of moral tales by Barkhwurdâr bin Maḥmûd Turkmân of Farâh, with the takhalluṣ Mumtâz, see fol. 1b, l. 2, and fol. 72a, l. 3. The title appears on fol. 72a, l. 6. It is in substance the same work as noticed in Rieu ii. p. 767 sq., but differs in so far as it is considerably smaller in extent and lacks the preface quoted there. The beginning (which differs from that in Rieu’s copy) is exactly the same as that of the Berlin copy (noticed by W. Pertsch, Berlin Cat., p. 317, No. 289), viz.: چهره پرداز عرائس حريم عجز و نياز و مصوّر نگار خانۀ فرنگ آب الخ.
The short introduction on ff. 1b-2b, in which there is only mention of the author’s stay in Harât (fol. 2a, l. 12), refers exclusively to the first story of our collection, which begins on fol. 2b, and bears as title (see fol. 2a, l. 8): حكايت فيروزشاه مصرى و گنجور عابد (given as general title to the whole collection on the fly-leaf).
The subdivisions consist of حكايت and باب, the latter nine in number (on ff. 22b, 38a, 40b, 50b, 61a, 66a, 69a, 71b, and 165a); the last bâb contains, as in Rieu’s copy, the story of Ra’nâ and Zîbâ ( باب از كتاب رعنا و زيبا). The author flourished under Minûćihrkhân’s governorship of Mashhad (A.H. 1034-1074=A.D. 1625-1664), see Rieu iii. p. 1093b.
No date. The Maḥbûb-alḳulûb has been printed in Bombay, A.H. 1268. Bibliotheca Leydeniana.
