Excerpt:A Delaunay-Belleville car with Kégresse track from the personal car park of the Tsar Nicholas II Kégresse's 1913 design Adolphe Kégresse (1879 - 1943) was a French military engineer , inventor of the half-track and dual clutch transmission . Born at Héricourt , and educated in Montbéliard , he moved in 1905 to Saint Petersburg , Russia to work for the Russian Tsar Nicholas II . To improve the mobility of the imperial car park, he invented the Kégresse track to modify normal motor vehicles into half-tracks. After World War I Kégresse was forced to return to his home country, where he was from 1919 employed by the Citroën company during the 1920s and 1930s to design half-track vehicles, together with engineer Jacques Hinstin. After leaving the Citroën company he developed in 1935 the AutoServe gearbox-transmission system; in 1939 he pioneered the development of modern small guided tracked bombs. Kégresse died in 1943 at Croissy-sur-Seine .

Excerpt: Bernard of Clairvaux, O.Cist (1090 August 20, 1153) was a Frankish abbot and the primary builder of the reforming Cistercian monastic order. After the death of his mother, Bernard sought admission into the Cistercian order. Three years later, he was sent to found a new abbey at an isolated clearing in a glen known as the Val d'Absinthe, about 15 km southeast of Bar-sur-Aube. According to tradition, Bernard founded the monastery on 25 June 1115, naming it Claire Vallée, which evolved into Clairvaux. There Bernard would preach an immediate faith, in which the intercessor was the Virgin Mary. In the year 1128, Bernard assisted at the Council of Troyes, at which he traced the outlines of the Rule of the Knights Templar, who soon became the ideal of Christian nobility. On the death of Pope Honorius II, which occurred on February 14, 1130, a schism broke out in the Church. King Louis VI convened a national council of the French bishops at Étampes, and Bernard was chosen to judge between the rival popes. In 1139, Bernard assisted at the Second Council of the La...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=4552 ... Read more

Excerpt: Emmanuel Joseph Sieyès (3 March 1748 20 June 1836) or Abbey Sieyes was a French Roman Catholic abbé and clergyman, one of the chief theorists of the French Revolution, French Consulate, and First French Empire. His liberal 1789 pamphlet What is the Third Estate? became the manifesto of the Revolution that helped transform the Estates-General into the National Assembly in June of 1789. In 1799, he was the instigator of the coup d'état of 18 Brumaire (9 November 1799), which brought Napoleon Bonaparte to power. He was also the first to coin the term "sociologie" (French for "sociology") in an unpublished manuscript. Sieyès was born on March 3, 1748 as the fifth child of Honoré and Annabelle Sieyès at the town of Fréjus in southern France. Sieyès' father was a local tax collector who made a humble income, and while the family had some noble blood, they were commoners. Sieyès' first education came by way of tutors and of the Jesuits. He also spent some time at the collège of the Doctrinaires of Draguignan. Sieyès originally wanted to join the military and become a soldier, but his frail health combined with his parents' piety lead him onto a religious career path. The vicar-general of Fréjus offered aid to Sieyès because he felt like he was obliged to his father. The product of this was ten years at the seminary of Saint Sulpice in Paris. There, Sieyè...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=199977 ... Read more

Non illustré. Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : Nicolas Léonard Sadi Carnot (né le 1 juin 1796 et mort le 24 août 1832), usuellement appelé Sadi Carnot, est un physicien et ingénieur français. À l'instar de Copernic, il ne publia qu'un seul livre, les Réflexions sur la puissance motrice du feu et sur les machines propres à développer cette puissance (Paris, 1824), dans lequel il exprima, à l'âge de 27 ans, ce qui s'avéra être le travail de sa vie. Dans cet ouvrage il posa les bases d'une discipline entièrement nouvelle, la thermodynamique. À l'époque d'ailleurs, le terme n'existait pas et c'est William Thomson qui l'inventa au milieu du siècle. Pourtant c'est bien Nicolas Léonard Sadi Carnot, malgré l'imprécision de certains de ses concepts, son acceptation de la théorie du calorique et de l'axiome de la conservation de la chaleur, qui a créé cette science aussi fondamentale du point de vue théorique que féconde en applications pratiques. Il formula l'exposé raisonné du moteur thermique et les principes de bases selon lesquels toute centrale énergétique, toute automobile, tout moteur à réaction est aujourd'hui conçu. Plus remarquable, cette genèse se fit alors même qu'aucun prédécesseur n'eût encore défini la nature et l'étendue du sujet. En s'appuyant sur des préoccupations purement techniciennes, comme l'amélioration des performances de la machine à vapeur, le cheminement intellectuel de Sadi Carnot est original et annonce des évolutions importantes qui intervinrent à cette époque charnière pour la science moderne.

Excerpt: Alain Badiou ·) (born 17 January 1937 in Rabat, Morocco) is a prominent French philosopher, formerly chair of philosophy at the École Normale Supérieure (ENS). Along with Giorgio Agamben and Slavoj iek, Badiou is a prominent figure in an anti-postmodern strand of continental philosophy. Badiou seeks to recover the concepts of being, truth and the subject in a way that, he claims, is neither postmodern nor simply a repetition of modernity. Politically, Badiou is committed to the far left, and to the Marxist tradition. Badiou was a student at Louis Le Grand and then the LEcole Normale Supérieure (1957-1961). He taught at the lycée in Reims from 1963 and published a couple of novels, before moving to the University of Paris VIII (Vincennes/Saint Denis) in 1969. Badiou was politically active very early on, and was one of the founding members of the Unified Socialist Party (PSU). The PSU was particularly active in the struggle for the decolonization of Algeria. He wrote his first novel, Almagestes, in 1964. In 1967 he joined a study group organized by Louis Althusser and grew increasingly influenced by Jacques Lacan and became a member of the editorial board of Cahiers pour lAnalys...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=713688 ...
