    De Camarès à Marseille : les lieux du négociant Antoine-Jean Solier (1760-1836)

    No full text
    Von Camarès bis nach Marseille : die Stationen des Händlers Antoine-Jean Solier (1760-1836). Antoine-Jean Solier stammte aus Camarès im Rouergue (in der Gegend von Rodez). In Nîmes machte er seine ersten Schritte im Beruf des Händlers und schließlich verschlug es ihn nach Marseille. Dort wird er von seinen Großcousins aufgenommen, die ihm die Pforten zum transatlantischen Handel öffnen. Derweilen beaufsichtigt und plant der sehr zurückhaltende Onkel Marc, der sich nach Vevey (Schweiz) zurückgezogen hat, seine Erziehung. Antoine-Jean Solier schrieb ständig über alle Abenteuer, die ihm das Leben beschied. Zwar genießt er die schier unendlichen Vergnügen, die Marseille bietet, doch verschlingt er auch mit großem Appetit die Autoren, die seine Bildung als Mensch der Aufklärung ausmachen. Niemals aber vergaß er seine Kindheit und seine Heimat, sein geliebtes Rouergue, dort wo sein Herz verblieben war. Wie in einem Mosaik kommen die von Antoine-Jean Solier beschriebenen Landstriche zusammen. Der Autor baut sich eine sehr singuläre Identität : tief in der Heimat verwurzelt und dennoch offen auch für weitere Horizonte. Sein Leben und der Leitfaden seiner Erzählungen sind gespickt mit Landschaften und Orten seiner intimen Erinnerungen. Der Historiker sollte dafür ein offenes Ohr bereit halten.From Camarès to Marseille : the Places of the merchant Antoine-Jean Solier (1760-1836). Having left Camarès in Rouergue, Antoine-Jean Solier learned the bases of his profession in Nîmes and pursuing his destiny in Marseille. He was greeted there by cousins who opened the doors to trans Atlantic commerce, while his discreet uncle Marc, retired in Vevey in Switzerland, watched over him and took care of his education. True maniac of writing, Antoine-Jean never ceased to testify to what life gave him in terms of adventures. While he took advantage of the infinite pleasures of Marseille, he also devoured with great appetite the authors who forged his culture of Enlightened man. But he never forgot the emotions of childhood, the cradle of his origins, his dear Rouergue where his heart stayed. Through the mosaic of the spaces that he evoked, Antoine-Jean Solier constructed for himself the singular identity of a man attached to his birthplace but who also loved larger horizons. His writings, his life, the thread of this story are thus punctuated by the places of his intimate memory to which the historian should lend an attentive ear.Parti de Camarès en Rouergue, Antoine-Jean Solier apprend les rudiments de son métier à Nîmes et poursuit son destin à Marseille. Il y est accueilli par de grands cousins qui lui ouvrent les portes du négoce transatlantique, tandis que le discret oncle Marc, retiré à Vevey en Suisse, veille et pourvoit à son éducation. Véritable hypergraphe, Antoine-Jean ne cesse de témoigner de ce que sa vie lui livre d’aventures. Tandis qu’il profite des plaisirs infinis de la cité phocéenne, il dévore également de grand appétit les auteurs qui forgent sa culture d’homme des Lumières. Mais jamais, au grand jamais, il n’oublie les émotions de l’enfance, le berceau des origines, son cher Rouergue où son coeur est resté. À travers la mosaïque des espaces évoqués, Antoine-Jean Solier se construit l’identité singulière d’un homme de terroir qui affectionne également de plus larges horizons. Ses écrits, sa vie, le fil de son récit sont ainsi jalonnés de ses lieux de mémoire intime auxquels l’historien aura tout intérêt à prêter une oreille attentive.Desde Camarès hasta Marsella : los lugares del negociante Antoine-Jean Solier (1760-1836). Oriundo de Camarès en Rouergue, Antoine-Jean Solier aprende los rudimentos de su oficio en Nîmes antes de asentarse en Marsella. Allí le acogen unos primos que le abren las puertas del negocio transatlántico mientras que el discreto tío Marc, retirado en Vevey en Suiza, cuida atentamente de su educación. Verdadero grafómano, Antoine-Jean no deja de dar fe de las aventuras que la vida le depara. Mientras disfruta de los infinitos placeres de la ciudad de Marsella, devora también de buena gana los libros de los autores que forman su cultura de hombre de las Luces. Pero jamás de los jamases olvida las emociones de la infancia, la cuna de sus orígenes, su entrañable Rouergue. A través del mosaico de los espacios referidos, Antoine-Jean Solier se construye la identidad singular de un hombre apegado a su terruño a quien le gustan también más amplios horizontes. Sus escritos, su vida, el hilo de su relato los jalonan lugares de memoria íntimos que el historiador habrá de tener en cuenta.Rives Danielle.

    UKMARC AMC: Draft Rev 4.0: UK MARC format for archives and manuscripts control (UK MARC AMC)

    No full text
    This draft is the first attempt to establish a UK MARC specifically for Archives and Manuscripts Control since the British Library indicated that it would countenance such extensions to the national UK MARC format. In order to keep consistency with the general UK MARC format, standard UK MARC subject fields are not included in this document, since they should be taken from the latest version of the UK MARC manual. {A note of them should perhaps be included in UK MARC AMC.} {NB Text in braces is intended to be explanatory material for readers of this draft}. Certain other fields have not been included that might occasionally be used in the cataloguing of archival materials but would generally only be used for such materials in organizations which were combining archive databases with library databases. This MARC version is intended for use with descriptions of archive or anuscript material that follow, or fit, the traditional style of cataloguing: we assume that these will normally relate to paper or parchment originals. It is not intended for use with descriptions of other kinds of material. For these, fields may be drawn from the appropriate UK MARC document. MARC versions for use with archives in special formats should be developed, in order to complete the full range of facilities available to archivists and curators

    Populism, populists, european democracies and European Union. The Italian case

    No full text
    In this chapter, the author starts by a necessary clarification of some notions as populism and fascism because there is a lot of confusion in the public debate but also a lot of academic controversies. The debate has been immediately re-launched in September 2022, after the victory at the general elections of Giorgia Meloni’s head of Brothers of Italy, a party who has a neo-fascist legacy, and after her nomination as chief of the Italian government. Marc Lazar concludes this first part of the chapter by giving what he calls an operative definition of populism, populist and fascism. In a second part, the author analyses Meloni’s party Brothers of Italy and proposes a characterisation of this party which is evolving. In a third part of the chapter, Marc Lazar reflects on what does Meloni and her party on Italian democracy and on the European Union but also what the Italian democracy and the European Union do to Meloni and Brothers of Italy. For the author, the Italian democracy and the European Union demonstrate a high capacity of resilience to the populist challenge and a propension of acculturation of the populists’ leader and party. He concludes pointing out that is a working progress, the end of which is unknown

    Managing Technology Risks Through Technological Proficiency: Guidance for Local Governments

    No full text
    Like most organizations, local governments face challenges managing technology, the critical resource to meet evolving public service expectations. But benefits associated with adapting the latest technology come with risks, some more apparent than others. This report details the problems facing municipal officials as they try to maximize the benefits of technology for their communities and constituents in the face of cybersecurity, legal, operational, financial, reputational and societal risks. The report concludes that top municipal officials must create and maintain an environment of “technological proficiency.” That includes creating a process for making technology decisions, developing an annually reviewed technology plan that is tied to the budget, instituting a “cyber hygiene” training program for all employees in proper computer security practices, and making sure that agency technology is competently managed. The report is supplemented by a "Best Practices and Resources Guide" that organizations can use to achieve technology proficiency. It provides best practices based on an organization's technology profile.Report and Supplement were prepared for the Municipal Excess Liability Fund, a joint insurance fund of over 600 New Jersey local government agencies
