Interview with Bernard Cache, author of "Earth Moves: The Furnishing of Territories" (MIT Architectural Press)
Bernard Brodie and the bomb: at the birth of the bipolar world
Bernard Brodie (1910-1978) was a leading 20th century theorist and philosopher of war. A key architect of American nuclear strategy, Brodie was one of the first civilian defense intellectuals to cross over into the military world. This thesis explores Brodie’s evolution as a theorist and his response to the technological innovations that transformed warfare from World War II to the Vietnam War. It situates his theoretical development within the classical theories of Carl von Clausewitz (1780-1831), as Brodie came to be known as “America’s Clausewitz.” While his first influential works focused on naval strategy, his most lasting impact came within the field of nuclear strategic thinking. Brodie helped conceptualize America’s strategy of deterrence, later taking into account America’s loss of nuclear monopoly, the advent of thermonuclear weapons, and proliferation of intercontinental ballistic missiles. Brodie’s strategic and philosophical response to the nuclear age led to his life-long effort to reconcile Clausewitz’s theories of war, which were a direct response to the strategic innovations of the Napoleonic era, to the new challenges of the nuclear age. While today’s world is much changed from the bipolar international order of the Cold War period, contemporary efforts to apply Clausewitzian concepts to today’s conflicts suggests that much can be learned from a similar endeavor by the previous generation as its strategic thinkers struggled to imagine new ways to maintain order in their era of unprecedented nuclear danger.acceptedVersionei tietoa saavutettavuudest
Un nouveau Grillon du genre Platygryllus de l’Oriental marocain (Orthoptera, Gryllidae)
A new cricket of the genus Platygryllus from Eastern Morocco (Orthoptera, Gryllidae). A new species of cricket is described from Morocco : Platygryllus xanthocercus n. sp. The synonymy between the genera Grylloderes Bolívar, 1894, and Platygryllus Chopard, 1961, is revised. Previous taxonomic analysis of these genera appears flawed ; the genus Platygryllus is removed from synonymy, resulting in the following combinations among the species previously included in the genus Grylloderes : Platygryllus quadristrigatus (Saussure, 1877), comb. rev., P. arambourgi (Chopard, 1938), comb. rev., P. atritus Otte & Cade, 1984, comb. rev., P. capensis Otte & Cade, 1984, comb. rev., P. cockbilli (Chopard, 1954), comb. rev., P. ignobilis (Walker, 1869), comb. rev., P. maurus (Afzelius & Brannius, 1804), comb. rev., P. primiformis Otte & Cade, 1984, comb. rev., P. serengeticus Otte & Cade, 1984, comb. rev., P. congolensis Gorochov, 1984, comb. rev., P. longus (Gorochov, 1988), n. comb., P. olsufievi (Gorochov, 1988), n. comb., P. orlovskajae (Gorochov, 1988), n. comb., P. ovum (Gorochov, 1988), n. comb. and P. satunini (Gorochov, 1988), n. comb. Five species could not be studied in this work and should be placed in the genus Platygryllus while waiting for further study : Platygryllus atratulus (Walker, 1869), comb. rev., P. melanocephalus (Audinet-Serville, 1838), comb. rev., P. nefandus (Kirby, 1906), n. comb., P. subalatus (Chopard, 1951), n. comb. and P. sudanus (Gorochov, 1988), n. comb. A differential diagnosis is provided to compare Platygryllus maurus (Afzelius & Brannius, 1804), P. satunini (Gorochov, 1988) and P. xanthocercus n. sp. Lastly, some considerations regarding the presence of the genus in North Africa (new record for Morocco), are given. Although difficult to substantiate, this presence could result from a past distribution of the genus on both sides of the Sahara.Une espèce nouvelle de Grillon est décrite du Maroc : Platygryllus xanthocercus n. sp. La synonymie entre les genres Grylloderes Bolívar, 1894, et Platygryllus Chopard, 1961, a été revue. Les arguments avancés pour celle-ci étant insuffisants, le genre Platygryllus est réhabilité et nous proposons les combinaisons suivantes parmi les espèces auparavant incluses dans le genre Grylloderes : Platygryllus quadristrigatus (Saussure, 1877), comb. rev., P. arambourgi (Chopard, 1938), comb. rev., P. atritus Otte & Cade, 1984, comb. rev., P. capensis Otte & Cade, 1984, comb. rev., P. cockbilli (Chopard, 1954), comb. rev., P. ignobilis (Walker, 1869), comb. rev., P. maurus (Afzelius & Brannius, 1804), comb. rev., P. primiformis Otte & Cade, 1984, comb. rev., P. serengeticus Otte & Cade, 1984, comb. rev., P. congolensis Gorochov, 1984, comb. rev., P. longus (Gorochov, 1988), n. comb., P. olsufievi (Gorochov, 1988), n. comb., P. orlovskajae (Gorochov, 1988), n. comb., P. ovum (Gorochov, 1988), n. comb. et P. satunini (Gorochov, 1988), n. comb. Cinq espèces n’ont pu être étudiées dans ce travail et peuvent être rangées provisoirement dans le genre Platygryllus en attendant un complément d’étude : Platygryllus atratulus (Walker, 1869), comb. rev., P. melanocephalus (Audinet-Serville, 1838), comb. rev., P. nefandus (Kirby, 1906), n. comb., P. subalatus (Chopard, 1951), n. comb. et P. sudanus (Gorochov, 1988), n. comb. Une diagnose différentielle permet ensuite de comparer Platygryllus maurus (Afzelius & Brannius, 1804), P. satunini (Gorochov, 1988) et P. xanthocercus n. sp. Enfin, quelques considérations sur la présence de ce genre en Afrique du Nord, nouveau pour le Maroc, sont ajoutées : d’interprétation délicate, celle-ci laisse supposer une répartition ancienne du genre, de part et d’autre du Sahara.François Alexandre, Defaut Bernard.

Richard Bernard and His Publics: A Puritan Minister as Author
Drawing upon approaches from history, literature, and religious studies, this dissertation enhances our understanding of the confluence of religion, print, politics, and society during a key transitional period in European history. In particular, it uses the case study of "author-minister" Richard Bernard to examine the relationship between print authorship and parish ministry in early seventeenth century England. Although it is well known that many early modern ministers became authors through the publication of sermons, few scholars have considered the more active role that some ministers took in producing works specifically designed for a print medium. Because preaching, teaching and other professional activities could easily fill the entirety of a minister’s time, it is important to consider the reasons these author-ministers chose to pursue publication and the goals that they had for their works. The dissertation demonstrates that authorship could become an integral part of the clerical vocation as author-ministers intentionally targeted different audiences through a variety of genres in order to further England’s reformation and religious unification within their own parishes and beyond.
The dissertation is centered upon the career of Bernard, whose life and work are ideally positioned to highlight many aspects of early Stuart parish and print ministry. In his works, the connection between pastoral ministry and print is particularly strong. For instance, one can often pinpoint specific events that influenced not only the timing but also the content of publications. In addition, Bernard was particularly explicit, both in his private correspondence and in print, about his goals as an author, his imagined audience, and his purposes for seeking publication. By placing his print works alongside records from his ministry, it is possible to reconstruct ways that Bernard’s pastoral vocation and authorial work mutually influenced one another, as well as how he conceived of these dual roles
