Abstract A total of 79 Trichoptera species (43 genera, 16 families) were found in the Javorníky Mts. (Czech Republic), including two Carpathian species, Chaetopteryx polonica Dziedzielewicz, 1889 and Potamophylax carpathicus (Dziedzielewicz, 1912). Two further species, Rhyacophila mocsaryi Klapálek, 1898 and Rhyacophila philopotamoides McLachlan, 1879, have, until recently, only been found in the Carpathian Mts. In addition, eight species that occur infrequently or only locally in the Czech Republic were found, Synagapetus moselyi (Ulmer, 1938), Hydroptila angulata Mosely, 1922, Wormaldia pulla (McLachlan, 1878), Plectrocnemia brevis McLachlan, 1871, Tinodes unicolor (Pictet, 1834), Hydropsyche fulvipes (Curtis, 1834), Beraeamyia hrabei Mayer, 1937 and Ernodes vicinus (McLachlan, 1879). Several of these species are listed in the Red List of threatened invertebrates of the Czech Republic (one as endangered, one vulnerable and seven near threatened).

Abstract:
A new genus and two new species of Xyelidae Newman, 1834 (Hymenoptera Linnaeus, 1758), Platyxyela tenuis sp. nov. and Scleroxyela daohugouensis gen. et sp. nov. are described and illustrated from the Middle Jurassic Daohugou Beds of Ningcheng, Inner Mongolia, China. Platyxyela tenuis sp. nov. (Xyelinae Newman, 1834, Liadoxyelini Rasnitsyn, 1966) can be distinguished from its congeners by short forewing length and ovipositor sheath strongly narrowed toward acute apex. Scleroxyela daohugouensis gen. et sp. nov. is placed within Macroxyelinae Ashmead, 1898, Xyeleciini Benson, 1945 based on pterositigma completely sclerotised and costal space sclerotised before ptrostigma, 1-Rs half as long as 1-M, and 1m-cu short. It is the first recorded species of Xyeleciini in Daohugou Beds. Furthermore, an updated key of identification of subfamilies and tribes of Xyelidae is provided. Our findings of new morphological data provide insights into the early evolution of Hymenoptera, as well as effectively enrich our understanding of the diversity of Xyelidae in the Mesozoic.

Abstract:
Cette thèse porte sur l'étude d'un réseau composé d'élus du Vaucluse de 1870 à 1898, autour de la figure d'Alfred Naquet et de ses amis politiques. On s'attachera à montrer comment ce réseau s'est peu à peu constitué et implanté à partir de 1870 grâce aux victoires électorales, et structuré par des fidélités personnelles, des échanges d'influence, et l'utilisation d'un vocabulaire de l'amitié. Cela avant d'être progressivement détruit et écarté de la scène politique locale durant les années 1888 à 1897, remis en cause par l'engagement d'une partie de ses membres dans le boulangisme, puis par leur implication dans le scandale de Panama. Au travers de l'étude de ce réseau, on cherche à appréhender les relations de clientèle et de fidélité entre ces élus du Vaucluse, leur relais locaux et de simples citoyens, dans la cadre de la politique des patronages, grâce à l'étude de la correspondance de ces élus et des fonds publics. Le deuxième évènement qui cause la fin du réseau Naquet est le scandale de Panama, plus précisément "l'affaire Arton". Accusés d'avoir reçu de l'argent pour leur vote lors d'une loi favorable à la compagnie universelle du canal interocéanique du Panama, certains membres du réseau sont poursuivis en justice. Par ailleurs, le scandale révèle des liens entre les puissances de l'argent et le monde politique, notamment au travers de la société centrale de la dynamite, et pose la question de l'existence d'un groupe de pression composé d'hommes politiques et d'hommes d'affaires à la chambre. De la même manière, les stratégies de défense des élus face à l'accusation de corruption, les déviances et les débats normatifs autour de cette thématique seront étudiées en ce qui concerne ce réseau
This thesis deals with the study of a network composed with MPs of Vaucluse from 1870 to 1898, gathered around Alfred Naquet and his political friends.We will try to show how this network works, how it was built and got rooted from 1870 thanks to electoral victories, then structured by personal loyalties, exchanges of influence and the use of friendship vocabulary.This was before it got progressively destroyed and isolated from the local political scene from 1888 to 1898, questionned first by the engagement from one part of its membersin the boulangisme, then by their implication in the Panama scandal. Throught the study of this network, we search to apprehend the relation of clientelism and loyalty between the MPs of Vaucluse, their local relay and simple citizens. The second event that caused the end of Naquet's network is the Panama scandal, more precisely the "Arton Affaire". Being accused of receiving money for their vote when a law in favour of the Panama company is voted,some members of the network are being prosecuted. The scandal also reveals links between businessmen and political men, especially throw the société centrale de la dynamite, created by Alfred Nobel, and raise the question of the existence of a group of pressure composed by politcal and business men. In the same way, the defence strategies of the electives facing corruption accusation, the deviances and normative debates around this theme will be studied regarding this network

Abstract:
Fondée en réaction aux conventions immobilistes et ternes de la Royal Academy, et annonçant des mouvements guidés par une recherche de la seule beauté plastique, la Confrérie Préraphaélite est souvent perçue comme une longue rêverie nostalgique aux contours imprécis. Si son engagement politique permet à William Morris d’échapper à cette catégorisation, Dante Gabriel Rossetti et ses disciples sont habituellement associés à une esthétique passéiste. Prenant le contre-pied de cette lecture, cette recherche s’intéresse à la dimension politique de la Confrérie, et aux enjeux de son engagement philosophique et idéologique. Cette étude d’un corpus poétique et pictural représentatif des Préraphaélites mêle à une perspective culturaliste et historiciste l’aspect esthétique et formel de leur art, pour en faire ressortir les attitudes politiques. En mettant les poèmes et les tableaux en regard de textes théoriques du XIXe siècle et en les lisant au prisme de théories sur la modernité, l’antimodernité, et l’altermodernité, elle exploite l’idée que la faille, représentation du décrochement et du discontinu autant que principe actif de création, permet l’ouverture d’une mise au défi permanente de l’idéologie dominante et la mise en place d’une alternative à la subversion, faisant des Préraphaélites les artisans d’une révolution tranquille destinée à transformer l’art et la société victorienne en profondeur
In reaction to a dull, never-changing Royal Academy, and announcing movements focused on sheer aesthetic beauty, the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood is often seen as wrapped in a long, hazy, melancholy reverie. William Morris’s political commitment spares him such labelling, but Dante Gabriel Rossetti and his disciples are often associated with past-obsessed aesthetics. Taking a stand against such a bias, this dissertation emphasises the political aspects of their work, and the scope of their philosophical and ideological commitments. By interweaving a cultural and historicist perspective with the formal and aesthetic sides of their art, this study of a representative set of Pre-Raphaelite paintings and poems seeks to identify the political attitudes underlying their art. Through the prisms of 19th century theoretical texts and reflections by thinkers of modernity, counter-modernity, and alter-modernity, this analysis probes the idea that rifts and faultlines represent both displacements and a creative principle, while simultaneously opening the way to a permanent challenging of dominant ideology and offering an alternative to subversion. The artistic twist on the faultline concept makes the Pre-Raphaelites craftsmen of a quiet revolution, meant to effect a deep transformation of Victorian society and art

Full text
Abstract:
L'accroissement de plus en plus rapide de la population mondiale pousse un grand nombre de chercheurs à s'interroger sur les limites de la croissance. Dans le même ordre d'idée, cette recherche vise à comprendre la dynamique entourant l'économie et la démographie. Une analyse exhaustive des différents écrits d'économistes permet d'approfondir la connaissance sur ce sujet précis de même qu'à répondre à une question en particulier: Quelles politiques doivent être mises en place pour améliorer le sort des affamés? Thomas Robert Malthus est l'un des premiers à avoir remis en question l'efficacité d'un accroissement de la population. Sa critique de certains des thèmes clés du courant mercantilisme marque ainsi le commencement d'une analyse privilégiant le bonheur individuel sur celui de la nation. Après s'être penché sur les différentes propositions développées par Malthus dans ses Essais sur le principe de population, il s'avère possible d'examiner l'influence qu'il a eue sur deux autres économistes, soit John Maynard Keynes et Karl Gunnar Myrdal. La présente étude analyse ainsi les idées de Keynes et de Myrdal quant à la relation économie-démographie. Bien que Keynes et Myrdal aient modifié au fil du temps leur vision quant à un accroissement démographique, il n'en demeure pas moins qu'ils conservèrent un argumentaire basé sur les théories malthusiennes. Après avoir examiné les différentes politiques démographiques proposées par ces économistes, une dernière section permet de prendre conscience des développements récents dans l'économie de la population. De plus, les politiques proposées par Malthus, Myrdal et Keynes sont analysées dans une perspective contemporaine où l'Inde et la Chine occupent une place prépondérante. ______________________________________________________________________________ MOTS-CLÉS DE L’AUTEUR : John Maynard Keynes, Thomas Robert Malthus, néo-malthusianisme, Karl Gunnar Myrdal, population, redistribution des revenus

Abstract:
The present work named “Traditional illustrated tale: A contribution” intends to reflect about the legacy of tales in Illustration and oral tradition, carrying out an illustration project. The investigation began in the origins of tale to contextualize its cultural roots and the persistence of certain narratives over the ages. With the famous collections of the brothers Grimm in the beginning of century XIX, traditional tales where recognized for their historical value as a reflection of people’s identity. This nationalist character associated to the Romantic Movement, appealed to several authors that collected tales in their countries. With the turn of the century there is a golden age in children's book illustrations and many authors turn to traditional tales has a great source with creative potential. The appeal of this illustrated books it´s in the diversity of stories and fantastical elements that bring to live the imagination of children and adults alike. I join this book illustration tradition with my practical work, by choosing a Portuguese traditional tale. This choice had in mind the disclosure of the Portuguese oral tradition unowned to me. Regarding the tale, the theoretical work consists of a systematization of research on the traditional tale and the contributions of the artists who illustrated it. There is also the theoretical foundation that accompanies the practical work, the influences, justification of stylistic options and artistic movements. The last part of the work is dedicated to the illustration project. I describe all the experience in a report of the process, reflecting about the difficulties, the learning and considerations on the illustration experiment. I present the different fases of the process from the sketches to the exploration of materials and their final result in the form of a model. Theory and practice complement each other to establish my course throughout this year of research and work and from which results the present dissertation

Abstract ‘Men make their own history, but not of their own free will; not under circumstances they themselves have chosen but under the given and inherited circumstances with which they are directly confronted.’ Of few can Marx’s truism be truer than of William Ewart Gladstone. His epic public career first in office in 1834, last in 1894-confronted the prime of Britain as the first industrial nation. The agenda of free trade and imperialism was dictated by forces far beyond the control of individuals acting as such. Yet the interpretation and execution of the agenda was achieved by the decisions and actions of individuals and explained through their speeches and writings. In this interpretation, execution, and explanation, Gladstone’s career holds a central place. In the process through which the British governing class came to terms with its new commercial and industrial destiny, Gladstone was a vital agent.

Full text
Abstract:
The discovery of periodicity in the properties of the elements and its connection to their atomic weights is one of the most important advances in nineteenth-century chemistry. This chapter will consider the tables of John Newlands (1837–1898) and William Odling (1829–1921), which preceded that of Dmitrii Ivanovich Mendeleev (1834–1907). Mendeleev’s table was published in 1869, prior to his being aware of the UK precedents of his tabulation. The major portion of this chapter will extend the ideas advanced by Stephen Brush in The Reception of Mendeleev’s Periodic Law in America and Britain but will restrict itself to the dissemination of the periodicity concept within the United Kingdom. This will be monitored by recording its appearances in textbooks and examination papers, and in a wider context, by extracting data from Google Books. The periodic table has a rich history since its inception. It has evolved into many shapes, and indeed dimensions, yet retaining its essential periodic underpinning. In the United Kingdom it is seen as a “table,” whereas the French prefer “classification” and the Germans and Russians “system.” Mendeleev himself referred to his periodic law in his Faraday Lecture and never used the term “table,” thus it is ironic that his fame is linked to words that he appears never to have uttered. The arrangement of the elements in rows and columns is seen as a table, but why label it periodic? A related, more familiar word to non-chemists is periodical, normally referring to a magazine that appears at regular time intervals. Google Books is a powerful modern tool for investigating the usage of selected words or phrases over selected time intervals. The writer chose to use its advanced search for books in the English language. This meant that sources other than British, notably North American, are also included but the observed patterns are probably true for British books. The data compare the number of times the terms periodic table, periodic law, periodic classification, and periodic acid occurred in five-year intervals between 1870 and 1919.
