Abstract:

Le livre de Laurent Binet, retraçant les événements entourant l’assassinat de Reinhard Heydrich, se distingue d’autres oeuvres contemporaines traitant des crimes de masse par la posture coupable de son énonciation. En effet, la reconstitution du fait historique chez Binet est marquée à la fois par la jubilation et le scrupule, la jouissance du narrateur (liée, entre autres, à son identification à la figure du résistant) étant inévitablement accompagnée de la possibilité d’une faute, d’un péché d’écriture. Cette écriture qui se doit de continuer mais qui se sait en train de trahir éloigne Binet des auteurs de sa génération et le rapproche des écrivains survivants des camps, et surtout, de leurs héritiers. De plus, le scrupule du narrateur semble se nourrir du fantasme d’agir sur le réel, et même sur un réel passé : le gain de la culpabilité comporte non seulement une croyance en l’agentivité de la littérature mais en sa transcendance. Si le narrateur peut se charger du poids d’une faute envers les morts, c’est parce que, dans cet espace qu’il aménage au fantasme au sein de la reconstitution historique, on suppose à l’écrit le pouvoir d’atteindre les morts : le narrateur se doit d’être prudent dans sa mise en récit, car aux victimes de la guerre et de la Shoah, il peut encore arriver quelque chose. Cette analyse d’HHhH démontre que le parti pris de la jouissance du texte ne s’oppose pas nécessairement à la visée éthique de la représentation du fait historique : au contraire, ce texte n’est jamais aussi éthique que lorsqu’il fantasme.

Abstract:

RésuméEn 1247, avant la croisade, et jusqu’à sa mort en 1270, Louis IX fit recueillir les plaintes de ses sujets afin de réparer les torts de son administration. Pénitentielles, ces enquêtes étaient aussi des instruments de gouvernement, comme en attestent les enquêtes de restitution des usures juives. Les saisies générales des biens des créanciers juifs avaient rendu Louis IX coupable d’un recel d’autant plus peccamineux qu’il provenait d’une activité condamnée par l’Église et par le roi en personne : l’usure. Au nom de sa souveraineté sursesjuifs – les « juifs du roi » – et pour le salut de son âme, le roi entendit publiquement rendre à ses sujets ces biens mal acquis. La restitution des usures juives est une entreprise deconversionmultiple : Louis IX ne restitue qu’une partie des biens des juifs et convertit le reste à un usage pieux, la croisade. En rendant, il transforme également en salut ses exactions et tourne à son avantage le rejet que pouvaient inspirer les créanciers juifs. Ces enquêtes incarnent donc un art de gouverner singulier, mêlant contrainte et consentement, souveraineté et scrupule religieux : le « moment saint Louis ».

Abstract:

À partir du XIXe siècle, certains romanciers vont tenter de débarrasser la courtisane des traits traditionnels. Elle n’est plus représentée sous un jour négatif, à savoir un personnage sans scrupule, sans morale, sans cœur, incapable de ressentir l’amour. Parmi ces auteurs qui vont tenter de réhabiliter l’image de la courtisane, Alexandre Dumas fils occupe une place de choix. À l’analyse de l’œuvre dumassienne, il ressort le diagnostic d’un double regard sur la catégorie sociale des courtisanes. Cette strate sociale revêt une ambigüité sous la plume d’Alexandre Dumas fils, en ce sens que la courtisane endosse tour à tour, au fil des péripéties, le manteau de la pécheresse et de la vertueuse au gré de la licence créatrice du romancier. Ainsi, si dans La Dame aux camélias, Dumas fils montre que la réhabilitation de la courtisane est possible, dans Le roman d’une femme, le romancier révèle qu’il est judicieux de la défendre et de condamner cette autre forme de prostitution pratiquée par les femmes mariées de la haute société appelées « femmes adultères ».

Abstract:

Résumé Si au XIXe siècle le genre de la fable agonisait déjà lentement, les poètes qui s'efforçaient de la ressusciter n'y parvinrent guère, à l'exception peut-être, d'un écrivain francophone: Le Suisse Jean-Jacques Porchat. Il manque malheureusement d'études d'ensemble sur la fable en pays Romand car ce genre littéraire n'a pas tellement été pratiqué en territoire helvétique mais les archives du Centre des recherches sur les Lettres Romandes de Lausanne conservent sept fables inédites de ce fabuliste suisse provenant d'un manuscrit autographe incomplet. Nous en présentons trois intitulées: 'L'Aristarque de Collège', 'Les Rats d'église et les Rats de grenier' et 'La Futaie et le Taillis'. Porchat a réussi à renouveller le genre en inventant toute une série de nouveau motifs. Son inspiration est donc moderne même s'il a eu recours parfois à des sources anciennes. Ce qui est particulier surtout chez lui, c'est le travail de transformation qu'il fait subir à toutes ses compositions; c'est avec grand soin que le fabuliste à tiré de chaque fable la morale qui lui est propre et avec scrupule qu'il a remanipulé son histoire afin de parvenir à ce but.

Abstract:

A novel actinomycete, designated strain R-Ac121T, was isolated from a small stone collected from an agricultural field in Jeju, Republic of Korea. The organism formed abundant vegetative mycelium that was branched and twisted. The reverse colour of colonies was brownish-yellow. Non-motile, wrinkled arthrospores were produced directly on the substrate mycelium. Aerial mycelium and sporangia were not observed. A neighbour-joining tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the isolate formed a distinct clade within the radiation of the family Thermomonosporaceae. The highest 16S rRNA gene sequence identity was found with the type strain of Spirillospora rubra (97.3 % sequence similarity) followed by those of Actinoallomurus purpureus (97.0 %), Actinomadura alba (96.5 %), Actinomadura fibrosa (96.5 %) and Actinomadura echinospora (96.4 %). The cell wall contained meso-diaminopimelic acid. The whole-cell sugars were rhamnose, glucose, ribose, xylose and arabinose. The polar lipids included diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol. The major menaquinone was MK-9(H6) and the predominant fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, C16 : 0, C17 : 1 ω8c and 10-methyl C17 : 0. The DNA G+C content was 71.8 mol%. The combination of morphological, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data clearly supports the separation of the organism from recognized species of the genus Actinomadura and related genera. On the basis of the data presented here, strain R-Ac121T represents a novel species of the genus Actinomadura, for which the name Actinomadura scrupuli sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is strain R-Ac121T (=KCTC 19488T =DSM 45225T).

Abstract:

M. I. Finley in his Politics in the Ancient World (Cambridge, 1983), 92–6 has recently cast doubt on the extent to which religious phenomena were taken seriously in ancient times. We believe that in stressing the reasons for scepticism he has overlooked much positive evidence for the impact of religious scruples on political behaviour and that in generalising he has undervalued the differences in this respect between ancient societies. The significance of some of this positive evidence is admittedly uncertain since in civilian life scruples might be easy to observe without great suffering. The acid test is in time of war, so that is the concern of our present enquiry. That attitudes varied can be shown only by comparing societies. We have here limited our discussion to three for which the evidence is well preserved: the world of the Greek city before Alexander the Great, Rome before Constantine, and the Jews in the Hellenistic and Roman period. Elucidation of the reasons for their distinct attitudes would reveal much about each of these societies and its religious practices and conceptions, but there will be space here only to show that considerable variety did indeed exist.Most ancient peoples assumed that their gods approved of war; the pacifism of some pre-Constantinian Christians was exceptional. Nor did such rules in combat as were observed necessarily have a religious foundation. Ancient like modern scruples were often based on moral and humanitarian grounds, as in the treatment of corpses and civilians; the gods, as the guardians of general morality, might be involved in such matters, but only at a remove.

Abstract:

In Summer 1550 King Henry II of France commissioned the renewal of a special military tax, the taillon. In his commission, chancery draftsmen asserted that this recently-introduced tax and associated military reforms had been so successful "que de tous costes s'en levent et rendent graces à Dieu." They added that provinces previously complaining of garrisons now clamored for them "pour en avoir le prouffit." Such assertions were patently ridiculous in an era when soldiers were about as welcome as a horde of locusts, yet the royal government did not scruple to offer them.

In the paper the regulations of the most significant secondary sources of Contract Law have also been included and they are as follows: the Principles of European Contract Law (PECL) and Common Conceptual Framework (DCFR). Because of the great role in the regulation of pre-contract relationships, the author has devoted considerable attention to the principle of scruple and honesty.

Cinq types de réactions sont identifiés : la satisfaction des producteurs que leurs données soient reprises par des spécialistes de l’analyse des données, leur attachement à des protocoles critiqués, leur intérêt pour des données jugées anecdotiques, la rétention de données et l’expression de scrupules face à l’extension de la production de données. Ce travail exploratoire montre que celle-ci revêt de multiples dimensions et remplit plusieurs fonctions, qui peuvent être altérées par le découplage entre producteurs et utilisateurs de données. Il invite également à prêter attention aux questionnements éthiques de ces producteurs.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT: Cheryl Misak has offered a pragmatic argument against a position she calls “scientific transcendentalism.” Scientific transcendentalists hold that truth is something different from what would be believed at the end of inquiry; more specifically, they adhere to a correspondence theory of truth. Misak thinks scientific transcendentalists thereby undermine the connection between truth and inquiry, for (a) pragmatically speaking, it adds nothing to truth and inquiry to ask whether what would be the results of sufficiently rigorous inquiry are really true and (b) they can only accept it as an article of faith that inquiry leads us to truth. I defend “scientific transcendentalism” against Misak’s objections.

Abstract:

The phase structures and the magnetic properties of HDDR magnet powders produced from the alloys with a nominal composition of Nd14FebalCo14B6.5AlxZry (x=0, ~0.35; y= 0, ~0.35) have been studied. The variation of the magnetic properties of the bonded magnets with HD temperature and DR temperature was investigated. A scruple addition of Al is useful to improve the magnetic properties of HDDR bonded magnets. And the composite addition of a little Al and Zr can further enhance the magnetic properties. As x = 0.15 and y = 0.1, the magnet properties can reach iHc = 990 kA/m, Br = 0.86 T and (BH)max = 118.4kJ/m3. The reasons for the enhancement of the magnetic properties by the composite addition of a little Al and Zr are analyzed.

Comment empêcher que cette situation perdure? Trop souvent le professionnel des relations publiques doit se soumettre ou se démettre. Pour éviter le dérapage continuel de la profession des relations publiques, il faut absolument que les associations professionnelles acceptent de livrer un combat sur la place publique contre les dérives du métier. Or, rien n’indique qu’elles soient prêtes à livrer ce combat.

This article gives a new reading and interpretation of a Coptic legend accompanying a wall-painting in a medieval church at Tebtunis, first published by C. C. Walters in this journal in 1989. Among depictions of the punishment of various sinners, the figure of a woman whose breasts are attacked by snakes can be connected with a belief in the sinfulness of wet-nursing, which is paralleled in Byzantine, Zoroastrian, and Mandaean contexts. Such scruples, foreign to Egypt in earlier times, may be owed to Gnosticism.

Résumé Le grand tremblement de terre de 1663 frappa des centres de peuplement de la vallée du Saint-Laurent, en Nouvelle-France, durant les exubérants derniers jours du carnaval, un festival bruyant que le clergé désapprouvait en raison de la frivolité due à l’ivresse et de l’indifférence face aux rites solennels précédant le carême. La débauche du carnaval annuel constituait un rappel désagréable des excès causés durant toute l’année par le commerce de l’eau-de-vie, autorisé par l’administration coloniale malgré l’opposition de l’Église. Pour les observateurs missionnaires, ce bouleversement géologique si dramatique apparut comme un message divin d’avertissement et de soutien à leur condamnation des citoyens dissolus, des marchands sans scrupules et des administrateurs arrogants. Cet article tient compte de tous les témoignages publiés de témoins oculaires du tremblement de terre de 1663 et les compare aux recherches sismologiques récentes dans le but d’analyser la construction sociale de cet événement géophysique.

Abstract:

Food security is now commonly seen as one of the defining global issues of the century, intertwined with population and consumption shifts, climate change, environmental degradation, water scarcity, and the geopolitics attending globalization. Some analysts suggest that food security threats are so urgent that philosophical scruples must be set aside in order to concentrate all resources on developing and implementing radical strategies to avert a looming civilizational crisis. This article suggests that definitions of food security invoke commitments and have consequences, and that continued critical and conceptual attention to the language employed in food security research and policy is warranted.

The decade of the 1930s provided a near perfect backdrop for a leftist surge in Indian national politics whose trajectory so far had been mapped under the political leadership of Gandhi. It had its moments of excitement, glory and disappointments. Although ample opportunities presented themselves to the Left to decisively influence the nationalist struggle during this period, it failed in its endeavour to play a historical role, beaten by a smarter, tactful, opportunist ‘Old guard’, the ‘right-wing’ leadership of the Indian National Congress, who, as events indicated in the later years, left behind all scruples to cling to political power.

Had the women not protested, the Jews (or the overwhelming majority) most likely would have been deported to either death or labor camps. This view holds that regime leaders released the Jews for tactical reasons, not because it was cowed or had moral scruples. Although Wolf Gruner has characterized this long-established interpretation as “legend,’ his evidence on balance supports rather than challenges it.

Abstract:

Cet article porte sur la représentation du Ville Jacques-Cartier des années 1960 dans La constellation du Lynx. L’hypothèse est que dans le roman historique de Louis Hamelin l’accroissement de la documentation factuelle (ce qui s’est vraiment passé) dépend d’un accroissement proportionnel du mythe territorial québécois (le lieu où ça se serait vraiment passé). Le premier est un travail de reconstruction, le second d’imagination. En découle une figure de l’écrivain québécois très attaché aux lieux et qui se présente comme affabulateur scrupuleux ou comme conteur cherchant un surcroît d’authenticité dans les marges géographiques. Figure dont la critique de la fin des années 2000 s’est éprise et dont Hamelin serait le préfigurateur.

Abstract:

This paper investigates multi-item moral hazard with auditing contests.s Although the presented model is widely applicable, we choose tax evasion as an exemplary application. We introduce a tax-evasion model where tax authority and taxpayer invest in detection and concealment. The taxpayers have multiple potential income sources and are heterogeneous with respect to their evasion scruples. The tax authority — unable to commit to an audit strategy — observes a tax declaration and chooses its auditing efforts. We show that the tax authority prefers to audit source by source until it finds evidence for evasion to conduct a full-scale audit thereafter. Furthermore, we provide an explanation for why economic actors engage in both the formal and informal sector at the same time.

Abstract:

AbstractThis article will explore two relatively neglected features of the Irish Republican Army’s (I.R.A.) guerrilla war between 1919 and 1921: internal discipline and forced participation. The gravest disciplinary measure was the death penalty and I.R.A. orders directed that it should apply to members guilty of certain offences against the army. While British army and police officials often insisted that the I.R.A. executed its own without scruple, the death penalty was rarely carried out in practice. General Headquarters (G.H.Q.) was largely unsuccessful in applying a standard disciplinary code and there was also a general inconsistency and lack of rigour in applying other punitive measures for less serious offences. On a related theme, it was not uncommon for soldiers to be ‘conscripted’ or forced to take part in operations under duress during irregular warfare. In the Irish case, this idea has rarely been discussed. It will be argued here that, along with the death penalty and strict punitive measures, forced participation was an uncomfortable idea and often counter-productive in practice. The nature and extent of discipline and coercion was also firmly dictated by local conditions and personalities.
