    Henri Matisse Drawing: An Eye-Hand Interaction Study Based on Archival Film.

    No full text
    Henri Matisse (1869-1954) attached fundamental importance to his drawings, in particular to the famous Themes et Variations series. These were accomplished following a precise method, starting with arduous life studies and evolving into brilliant spontaneous drawings. A 1946 archival documentary film showing the artist drawing four portraits of his grandson Gerard was shot in such a way as to allow the present author to undertake a detailed eye-hand interaction analysis of the drawing process. It was found that Matisse’s temporal working rhythm and use of motor memory resulted in a more direct approach than that used by most painters. Taken together with remarks the artist made throughout his lifetime, these results provide a cognitive interpretation of his drawing method

    A Document: Maître Lucien Vidal-Naquet's Journal. The author here gives us brief biography of his father, Lucien Vidal-Naquet, a lawyer, and presents the journal he kept from September 1942 to February 1944. On May 15, 1944, Lucien Vidal-Naquet was deported to the internment camps of Baumettes, Drancy, and finally to Auschwitz, never to return. Lucien Vidal-Naquet was a "dejudaïzed Jewish bourgeois" (as wrote Raymond Aron) and French patriot appalled by the armistice and the Vichy regime. Prevented from practicing law from 1942 on he refused to flee danger the seriousness of which he fully appreciated.Vidal-Naquet Pierre.

    L’oeuvre ouverte de Lucien Goldman

    No full text
    L'auteur commence par montrer l'importance de l'œuvre de Lucien Goldmann pour situer le phénomène de la création artistique à l'intérieur de la totalité des comportements humains. Il souligne l'originalité des hypothèses goldmanniennes quant au rôle et à la fonction de l'œuvre littéraire comme élément actif pour la constitution d'une conscience collective. Dans un deuxième temps l'auteur illustre la pertinence du structuralisme génétique par une analyse schématique de l'œuvre du romancier québécois Roger Lemelin. Enfin il montre comment les travaux d'une autre sociologie de la littérature (celle de Robert Escarpit) développée à partir de recherches sur la production, la diffusion et la consommation du livre rejoignent ceux de Lucien Goldmann dans l'élaboration d'une théorie dynamique et globale de la littérature.The author begins by showing the importance of the work of Lucien Goldmann in situating the phenomenon of artistic creation within the totality of human behavior. He underlines the originality of Goldmann's hypotheses with regard to the role and the function of literary work as an active element in the development of a collective conscience. Second, the author illustrates the pertinence of genetic structuralism with a systematic analysis of the work of the Quebec novelist Roger Lemelin. Finally, he shows how the works of another sociology of literature (that of Robert Escarpit) which was developed from research on the production, diffusion and consumption of books dovetail with those of Lucien Goldmann in the elaboration of a global and dynamic theory of literature.El autor empieza mostrando la importancia de la obra de Lucien Goldmann a fin de situar el fenómeno de la creación artística en el interior de la totalidad de los comportamientos humanos. Destaca la originalidad de las hipótesis goldmania-nas en lo que concierne la función de la obra literaria como elemento activo en la constitución de una consciencia colectiva. En una segunda etapa de su análisis, el autor ilustra la pertinencia del estructuralismo genético a través de un estudio esquemático de la obra del novelista quebequés Roger Lemelin. Por último, muestra que los trabajos de otra tendencia en sociología de la literatura (la de Robert Escarpit), basada en investigaciones sobre la producción, la difusión y el consumo del libro, reencuentran los de Lucien Goldmann en la elaboración de una teoría dinámica y global de la literatura

    Public relations ethics – the early history of the code of Athens

    No full text
    In 1965, the International Public Relations Association (IPRA) adopted an International Code of Ethics, which became known as the Code of Athens, as its statement of public relations ethics. The Code reflected the hopeful, post-World War 2 ethical framework with its linkage to the United Nation’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights adopted in 1948. It was the first international code of ethics enacted in the public relations field. Many public relations leaders of the time saw public relations as a force for social progress and a bulwark against oppressive regimes in the Communist world and military dictatorships. A code of ethics was an early imperative of IPRA which came into being 10 years earlier. It came after a Code of Conduct, adopted in 1961, which was known as the Code of Venice. Both codes were adopted by CERP and several national public relations associations and widely promoted. Using sources from the IPRA archive, the paper explores the evolution of the Code, its implementation and modification. A feature of the debate within IPRA about the Code was whether it was a statement of ideals to which members should aspire or a statement of standards. The view of prominent IPRA members from Anglo-American countries was that the Code, while laudable, was unenforceable. There are, however, no archived records of disciplinary action against members. The paper will also consider the practice implications of preparing and implementing universal ethical statements in public relations and allied communication fields

    Lucien Rebatet : le roman inachevé ?

    No full text
    Bien que d’aussi bons esprits que Paulhan ou Steiner aient tenu Les deux étendards de Lucien Rebatet pour un très grand roman, le livre et son auteur demeurent ostracisés. C’est que Rebatet, esthète et plus grand critique de cinéma de l’avant-guerre, fut aussi un journaliste collaborateur et surtout l’auteur d’un retentissant pamphlet pronazi et antisémite, Les décombres. Or, Les deux étendards, extraordinaire roman d’amour, est aussi un roman d’initiation, où le refus nietzschéen du christianisme débouche sur un véritable mystère du salut qui est un des visages du délire totalitaire moderne.Although such intellectuals as Paulhan and Steiner considered Lucien Rebatet’s Les deux étendards to be a great novel, both the author and his works continue to be marginalized. This is because Rebatet, an aesthete and prominent pre-War cinema critic, was also a collaborationist journalist and the author of a vigorously pro-Nazi, antisemitic pamphlet, Les décombres. His work Les deux étendards, which is an extraordinary love story, is also a novel of initiation, in which the Nietzschian rejection of Christianity reveals a genuine mystery of Salvation that participates in the modern totalitarian imagination

    L’enfant sauvage à l’oreille de Lucien Malson

    No full text
    The figure of the wild child was revised in the 1960s through Lucien Malson’s reading, which inspired François Truffaut's film of 1969. In order to grasp this particular deployment of the “wild child” in the human science writing of this prolific period, we shall analyse two concurrent types of writing by Lucien Malson, corresponding to his two apparently unrelated activities, special education on the one hand, and jazz music criticism on the other. We will thus be able to read in tandem a history of the wild child and a history of jazz, with each type of writing feeding off the other. The use of the wild child was absolutely singular, stemming as it did from an author for whom looking and listening, a sensory sensitivity (the senses) and a linguistic sensitivity (meaning) were inseparable

    Lucien Febvre, Ecclesiastical Historian?

    No full text
    Every ecclesiastical historian knows, or, dare I say, should know, Lucien Febvre's incisive and polemical article, ‘Une question mal posée’, first published in 1929, in which, beginning with a critique of recent work on the origins of the Reformation, the author ended by calling ecclesiastical history into question. The aim of this article is to place this famous article in context by examining Febvre's main contributions to the history of the Church, or as he preferred to say, the history of religion. Lucien Febvre (1878–1956) was a prolific writer and, although he has not been studied as intensively as his junior colleagues Marc Bloch and Fernand Braudel, his scholarly work has often been discussed. A bibliography published in 1990 listed 2,143 items either by or about Febvre which had been published up to that time. Since the history of religion was one of Febvre's main interests, it follows that this article will have to be rigorously selective, discussing his major contributions to the field together with a few studies of his achievement.In order to give some sense of his intellectual development, Febvre's books and articles on religious history will be discussed in chronological order of publication, before any attempt at an assessment of his reception, cool or warm, or the significance of his work. These books and articles appeared in three clusters, published in 1901–11, 1925–30, and 1941–9 respectively.</jats:p
