    Questionnaire about Daniel Putnam Thompson's service in World War I, 1917-1919, signed by Thompson on 5 April 1925.Questionnaire originally part of a survey of Norwich University alumni conducted by a “Norwich in the World War” committee consisting of Charles N. Barber (chairman), Carl V. Woodbury, K.R.B. Flint, and Gustaf A. Nelson. Data from these questionnaires may have been used in a chapter of "Vermont in the world war, 1917-1919" by Harold P. Sheldon (1928). Transcription by Abigail Lumpkin. Transcriptions may be subject to error

    Cohomological finiteness properties of the Brin-Thompson-higman groups 2V and 3V

    No full text
    We show that Brin's generalisations 2V and 3V of the Thompson-Higman group V are of type FP_\infty. Our methods also give a new proof that both groups are finitely presented

    The Polycyclic Inverse Monoids and the Thompson Groups Revisited

    No full text
    We revisit our construction of the Thompson groups from the polycyclic inverse monoids in the light of new research. Specifically, we prove that the Thompson group Gn1 is the group of units of a Boolean inverse monoid Cn called the Cuntz inverse monoid. This inverse monoid is proved to be the tight completion of the polycyclic inverse monoid Pn. The étale topological groupoid associated with Cn under non-commutative stone duality is the usual groupoid associated with the corresponding Cuntz C∗ -algebra. We then show that the group Gn 1 is also the group of automorphisms of a specific n-ary Cantor algebra: this n-ary Cantor algebra is constructed first as the monoid of total maps of a restriction semigroup à la Statman and then in terms of labelled trees à la Higman.</p

    Classe, cultura e experiência: E.P. Thompson e o culturalismo nas ciências sociais

    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humans. Programa de Pós-graduação em Sociologia PolíticaA proposta da pesquisa é indicar as conseqüências teóricas presentes nas concepções de classe, cultura e experiência em E. P. Thompson por meio de critérios ontológicos do objeto de estudo da Sociologia e do instrumental teórico do Realismo Crítico. Dessa forma, identificamos as possibilidades de um intercâmbio/diálogo entre as categorias de cultura e experiência no âmbito da Antropologia, da Sociologia e da História. Destacamos nesse processo a categoria cultura em relação #àquilo que não é cultura#, i.e., relacionando as condições materiais de existência com as perspectivas de transformação social fundadas na luta, consciência e experiência de classe. Para tanto, analisamos o desenvolvimento teórico de algumas proposições do culturalismo e sua inserção no debate sobre o ser social, bem como o conceito de cultura para Thompson. Abrimos assim a possibilidade do estudo científico do ser social, relacionando as implicações teóricas de sua obra com o modelo transformacional de sociedade delimitado pelo Realismo Crítico de Roy Bhaskar Para contextualizar os debates, sistematizamos as críticas de Thompson às tendências funcionalistas das Ciências Sociais e discutimos alguns críticos de sua obra. Como conclusão, apontamos as contribuições de Thompson ao amplo debate das Ciências Sociais no campo dos estudos sobre cultura e sociedade, sem perder de vista ou abandonar os referenciais marxistas de sua obra no intuito de afastá-lo da corrente culturalista pósmoderna a que é, por vezes, impropriamente vinculado. The aim of this research is to indicate the theoretical consequences within the categories of class, culture and experience in E. P. Thompson by relating them with the ontological criteria of sociology#s subject of study and the achievements of Critical Realism theory. Doing that we hope to help to identify the possibilities of an exchange/dialog between the categories of culture and experience within Anthropology, Sociology and History

    Still Reading Edward P. Thompson

    No full text
    During the final decades of the 20th century, the reading of the works of E.P. Thompson was a necessary exercise for many historians. The object of these reflections, starting from the changes occurred in historiography, is to assert its force as a historian and to reiterate its status of “classic”.</jats:p
