Musique de création et spiritualité : forum à sept voix
This investigation of the relationship between the music of creation and spirituality is primarily a reflection set as a forum in seven voices, including remarks by the author. In the fall of 2010, seven musicians from different generations, practices and aesthetics agreed to answer by email the questions drawn up by Circuit’s editorial board. The musicians were Sandeep Bhagwati, Frans Ben Callado, Julie-Anne Derome, Wolf Edwards, André Hamel, Nicolas-Alexandre Marcotte and Rodney Sharman. The questionnaire’s lexical field, particularly polysemic (“spirituality”, “sacred”, “transcendence”, “absolute”), elicited a striking range of viewpoints. But certain constants stand out, notably the almost total absence of faith in the views held. Apparently, the practitioners of the music of creation, in tune with their times, defer to a “spirituality without God” as set forth in the philosophy of André Comte-Sponville.Cette enquête sur les rapports entre musique de création et spiritualité, qui se veut avant tout un espace de réflexion, prend la forme d’un forum à sept voix, présenté et commenté par l’auteur. Sept musiciens de générations, pratiques et esthétiques variées ont accepté de répondre, par courriel, à l’automne 2010, aux questions mises au point par la rédaction de Circuit. Il s’agit de Sandeep Bhagwati, Frans Ben Callado, Julie-Anne Derome, Wolf Edwards, André Hamel, Nicolas-Alexandre Marcotte et Rodney Sharman. Le champ lexical du questionnaire, particulièrement polysémique (« spiritualité », « sacré », « transcendance », « absolu »), a stimulé des réponses d’une frappante variété de points de vue. Toutefois, des constantes se détachent, notamment l’absence presque complète de la foi dans les propos tenus. On peut ainsi penser que les acteurs de la musique de création, en phase avec leur époque, tendent vers une « spiritualité sans Dieu », telle que décrite par le philosophe André Comte-Sponville
Hidden Structure and Function in the Lexicon
How many words are needed to define all the words in a dictionary? Graph-theoretic analysis reveals that about 10% of a dictionary is a unique Kernel of words that define one another and all the rest, but this is not the smallest such subset. The Kernel consists of one huge strongly connected component (SCC), about half its size, the Core, surrounded by many small SCCs, the Satellites. Core words can define one another but not the rest of the dictionary. The Kernel also contains many overlapping Minimal Grounding Sets (MGSs), each about the same size as the Core, each part -Core, part - Satellite. MGS words can define all the rest of the dictionary. They are learned earlier, more concrete and more frequent than the rest of the dictionary. Satellite words, not correlated with age or frequency, are less concrete (more abstract) words that are also needed for full lexical power.<br/

La filosofía del derecho de Alexandre Kojève
This article is a presentation of Alexandre Kojève’s philosophy of law, exposed in his Esquisse d’une phénoménologie du droit (1981). Little attention has been paid to this work. So there is a gap that has to be filled with a critical reflection of its strengths. Among them, undoubtedly, we count the fact that Kojève is introducing a conception of international justice that casts a singular light on current debates about cosmopolitanism and globalization. According to this author, citizenship is the key element of the process of global expansion of the juridical sphere. In sum, Kojève’s philosophy is useful to reflect upon the contrast between the juridical and the political, which is the basis for all philosophy of law, in order to achieve world peace and international justice.Este artículo es una presentación de la filosofía del derecho de Alexandre Kojève contenida en su Esquisse d’une phénoménologie du droit (1981). La poca atención que dicha obra ha recibido es un vacío que debiera llenarse con una reflexión crítica de sus puntos fuertes. Entre ellos destaca una concepción de la justicia internacional que proyecta una luz muy singular sobre los actuales debates en torno a la globalización y el cosmopolitismo. A ojos de este autor, la ciudadanía es el elemento clave para aquilatar la expansión global de lo jurídico. En suma, Kojève aparece como un valioso referente en la labor de pensar la contraposición entre lo jurídico y lo político que está en la base de toda filosofía del derecho, con la aspiración al logro de la justicia internacional y la paz mundial en el horizonte

Hierarchies in dictionary definition space
A dictionary defines words in terms of other words. Definitions can tell you the meanings of words you don't know, but only if you know the meanings of the defining words. How many words do you need to know (and which ones) in order to be able to learn all the rest from definitions? We reduced dictionaries to their "grounding kernels" (GKs), about 10% of the dictionary, from which all the other words could be defined. The GK words turned out to have psycholinguistic correlates: they were learned at an earlier age and more concrete than the rest of the dictionary. But one can compress still more: the GK turns out to have internal structure, with a strongly connected "kernel core" (KC) and a surrounding layer, from which a hierarchy of definitional distances can be derived, all the way out to the periphery of the full dictionary. These definitional distances, too, are correlated with psycholinguistic variables (age of acquisition, concreteness, imageability, oral and written frequency) and hence perhaps with the "mental lexicon" in each of our heads
