How can change in cultural Policy be explained ? Through a comparative and historical analysis, this research sheds new light on the emergence, institutionalization and transformation of the cultural policies of two major Latin American countries : Mexico and Argentina. Elodie Bordat-Chauvin's investigation is based on the material gathered in ethnographic fieldwork conducted between 2008 and 2010. It gathers observations, unique archive material and more than ninety semi-directive interviews with the majority of Secretaries of Culture in office between 1983 and 2010, several intellectuals, interest groups leaders, cultural managers and members of unions who all played a role in these countries' cultural policies in the last thirty years. This work challenges the common assertions that Mexican cultural policy is characterized by inertia and Argentinean cultural policy by instability. It analyses factors of changes – such as the neo-liberal turn, transnationalization, decentralization and politico-institutional changes – and their consequences – including reductions in cultural budgets, transformations in cultural industries and modifications in the balance of power between national, subnational, public and private actors.

Ascidians are common marine animals present on all types of substrata but abundant and highly diversified in warm oceans. They represent a large portion of the underwater pictures taken by divers of the ORSTOM center in Noumea. One millimeter to some decimeters in size, cryptic or brightly coloured, motionless, often in the shade, ascidians are not well known, but are present everywhere. They are surprising not only in their variable shapes but also in their unique biological characteristics. They represent the boundary between invertebrates and vertebrates, although the adults look like stones or sponges. With a beautiful selection of photographs, the authors discuss the essential anatomy, the modes of budding, the pigments, and the spicules. The ecological requirements are detailed and symbionts, parasites and predators are reviewed. The relationship with man concerns fouling species on ships, their use as food end as a source of pharmacological products. The final section provides a key for the identification of the most common or spectacular species.

This book provides an empirical analysis rather than a theoretical framework of refugee situations during the Cold War. It focuses on potential refugee-producing situations with a view to prevent occurances where refugees are exploited as a weapon in political strife. In order to forestall the violation of individual rights, the book proposes measures to prevent refugee situations from arising, however, not to prevent persecuted individuals from seeking protection. This second edition shows in its revised parts that the proposals for prevention, including on mediation, early warning, and information-sharing are all being implemented. Developments since the publication of the first edition have entirely changed the international political climate. Prevention has moved to the top of the agenda of the United Nations and individual states alike. Progress achieved in the area of human rights and political climate. Prevention has moved to the top of the agenda of the United Nations and indivivual states alike. Progress achieved in the area of human rights and development, humanitarian assistance and intervention, peacekeeping and peacemaking offer new possibilities and challenges for prevention and peace. The international community should move forcefully now while almost global cooperation is possible to institutionalize new prevention and intervention approaches to save lives and to prevent future abuses of human rights and forced population displacement. The Cold War may have finished but war, internal and crossborder, is still alive.

On ne saurait comprendre l'extraordinaire " éveil " de la Chine d'aujourd'hui sans connaître le rôle qu'y a joué Mao Tsé-toung des années vingt aux années soixante-dix. Car s'il y eut un géant au XXe siècle, ce fut bien lui ! Ce personnage à facettes multiples, poète et philosophe, chef de guerre et homme d'État, stratège génial mais aussi, à l'occasion, politicien rusé, suscite à la fois une forme d'admiration pour l'œuvre accomplie et un violent mouvement de recul pour les moyens employés. Son parcours rien moins que rectiligne, la nature totalitaire du régime avec son inévitable et morbide culture du secret et son goût pour le paraître ; ses interventions dans tous les domaines de la vie des Chinois, sa longévité au pouvoir (près de quarante ans) et l'adulation absurde dont il a longtemps fait l'objet en Occident ont découragé bon nombre d'analystes. Seuls une présence sur place au long de deux décennies (complétée par de nombreux séjours ultérieurs), une parfaite familiarité avec la langue, l'histoire et le mode de vie des Chinois, une connaissance précise des rouages du Parti communiste, une fréquentation durable de certains hommes clefs et un esprit d'observation aigu ont permis à Philip Short de proposer le récit, aussi exact et objectif que possible, d'un destin hors norme dont l'intéressé lui-même a embrouillé à plaisir la compréhension.

We thought we had gone through the topic in the first volume, those two games opened new pists of reflexions. The in-depth analysis of Hidetaka Miyazaki's Dark Souls saga continues with this volume 2, decoding the Bloodborne and Dark Souls III episodes. An indinspensale ebook for all the fans of the game Dark Souls !EXTRACT"The project, christened Project Beast, began soon after the Astorias of the Abyss DLC was released in August 2012. At the time, FromSoftware was also beginning to build Dark Souls II, its cash cow. Miyazaki kept his distance from this sequel, which was handed off to Tomohiro Shibuya and Yui Tanimura, with support from the FromSoftware president and creator of King's Field, Naotoshi Zin, who supervised the game system. On his end, Hidetaka Miyazaki formed a trusted team of regular collaborators, such as lead programmer Jun Itô (who had already filled this role for Demon's Souls and Dark Souls), composer and lead sound designer Tsukasa Saitô (Armored Core games), and most of his regular artists: Daisuke Satake, Masanori Waragai and Hiroshi Nakamura. The success of Demon's Souls, and the even greater success of Dark Souls, allowed FromSoftware to grow its ranks significantly. In total, no fewer than fifty programmers participated in the project, along with around twenty game system designers and fifty people working on visual creation (animation, scenery, characters, etc.). Thanks to financial support from Sony, many Japanese, Chinese and Taiwanese studios were sub-contracted during the production to help with graphics and visuals."ABOUT THE AUTHORSPassionate about films and video games, Damien Mecheri joined the writers team of Gameplay RPG in 2004, writing several articles for the second special edition on the Final Fantasy saga.

Although the prominence of Matthew's anti-Jewish polemic has been widely recognized in recent years, curiously little attention has thus far been given to the contribution made by chapters 11 and 12 to this theme. Often dismissed as a loose compendium of controversy-stories, this narrative section actually displays a solid, thematic unity dealing with the tragic fact of Jesus'rejection by the covenant people, Israel. Matthew's usually thoughtful style is evident in these chapters as he proceeds in a quite independent manner to clarify the unexpectedly humble nature of the messianic mission, the consequences of its rejection and the identity of the true people of God.

From an investigation of the way of life of the inhabitants of this little-known region, the author attempts to deduce and evaluate the system of thought which governs, at least implicitly, the life-style of the tribal people in question. The significance of the highly spiritual quality of their mental attitudes is discussed from the philosophical angle.

The book analyses the attitudes of non-EU countries towards European integration in historical and contemporary perspectives. The authors study a range of actors in Europe and beyond to explain the impact of the creation of the European Communities on the international system and how the EU is perceived in the world. The book further shows the significance of the institutional interplay within the EU, and between EU institutions, member states and external actors led by their own internal dynamics to explain policy outcomes. It investigates to what extent the perceptions of the international community towards the European Communities and the EU have been influenced by the complexity of their decision-making and the difficulty of reconciling the views of member states on key external relations issues. The authors also study the interplay of non-EU countries and the EU within the broader context of international and regional institutions and forums for international cooperation.

Although modern study of the Bible has made impressive philological advances, it lacks an adequate philosophical frame of reference that would link the symbolism of the Biblical narrative to the problems of human existence. The present work sets out to provide the germ of a philosophy of language and human consciousness that would serve as a basis for a proper exegesis of the Biblical text. Part One establishes the historical, philosophical and hermeneutical framework by examining the link between experience, symbolization and the structure of human consciousness as elaborated historically in myth and philosophy. Part Two applies this framework to representative anthropological texts from the Old and New Testaments in order to forge a link between the Biblical symbolism and the fundamental problems of human existence. Part Three draws attention to the implications of the inquiry for a philosophical anthropology and a more comprehensive hermeneutical framework.

Parents who come from different language backgrounds often hope that their children will be able to speak the languages of both their parents. In families where this is the goal, the ‘one parent-one language' approach (Ronjat, 1913) is widely used. The ‘one parent-one language' approach is relatively effective in promoting active bilingualism among young children in a society where there is little support for the minority language. However, there is a general perception that maintenance of the minority language into middle childhood and beyond is difficult as during this period children's contacts with the outside world expand and the input in the majority language increases. This book examines the sociolinguistic environment and the nature of parental input for children from Japanese-Australian families, who have been exposed to Japanese and English through the ‘one parent-one language' approach in Australia. The research on which the book is based identifies factors which account for successful and unsuccessful cases of Japanese language maintenance of children from those families. The major part of this study involves discourse analysis of the conversations between four Japanese mothers and their primary school aged children based on audio-recordings over a period of 21 months. This qualitative approach is complemented by a quantitative study interviewing 25 Japanese mothers about their children's language experience.

The subject of foreign assistance in education for developing countries has gained increasing importance in the last twenty years. The fact that the efforts of both donors and recipients of assistance have not been entirely satisfying has resulted in repeated appeals for intensified scientific investigation into this area. This study represents a response to those appeals from the point of view of an educationist from a recipient country (Sierra Leone).Using historical and field investigations, case studies of three representative agencies were conducted between 1988 and 1989 : a multilateral (UNESCO), a bilateral (British) and a private (Baptist Church).The results indicate that both the approach and goals of aid agencies as well as the degree of involvement of target groups leave a lot to be desired. On the basis of these results, recommendations are made for future cooperation.

This book demonstrates that the encounter between Christianity and various African cultures gives rise to a number of problems for Africans who become Christians. It draws attention to certain traditional African beliefs and practices that seem to be incompatible with Christianity and create problems for Africans who embrace Christianity. Against this background it argues for the need to inculturate Christianity. It contends that in this exercise African Christianity can learn from the attempts at inculturation found in the New Testament times and in the early church. It offers examples of how the early church sought to make use of non-Christian categories of thought and elements in its articulation of the Christian message and in worship. It suggests a few areas of Ghanaian and African life where inculturation could and should take place. These include funeral rites, widowhood rites, child-naming rites, the rites of marriage, libation and christology. It concludes by offering some guidelines for use in the process of the inculturation of Christianity in Africa today.

De superbes photographies de chiens dans des voitures. Enfant, le photographe Martin Usborne a été une fois laissé dans une voiture. Ce ne fut pas pour longtemps, mais il se demanda si quelqu'un reviendrait. Vers le même âge, il est tombé amoureux des chiens - ils ne pouvaient pas parler, tout comme il se sentait silencieux dans cette voiture. Trente ans plus tard, les deux expériences se sont réunies dans ce projet cinématographique et humoristique sombre qui examine la façon dont les humains sont capables de faire taire les animaux qu'ils aiment le plus. Aucun chien n'a été blessé lors de la réalisation de ce projet.

Inge ARTEEL Biographie einer Biographielosen Based on my experiences writing a monographical biography of Friederike Mayröcker I explore some dilemma's and paradoxes of biographical writing, both in the texts of Mayröcker herself and in the writing about her texts. In her prose texts as well as in paratexts Mayröcker cites and parodies conventions of (auto)biographical literature ; referential truth is both suggested and thwarted. When writing a biographical portrait, these ambivalences should be taken into account. En me fondant sur mon expérience d'écrire une biographie monographique de Friederike Mayröcker, j'examinerai quelques dilemmes et paradoxes de l'écriture biographique dans les textes de Mayröcker même et dans les écrits qui traitent de ses textes. Dans ses textes en prose ainsi que dans les paratextes, Mayröcker cite et parodie des conventions de la littérature (auto)biographique ; la vérité référentielle est en même temps suggérée et troublée/contrariée. Lors de l'écriture d'un portrait biographique, ces ambivalences doivent être prises en compte. Klaus KASTBERGER Geheimnisse des Archivs Friederike Mayröcker und ihre Wohnung The Essay deals with photographs of Friederike Mayröcker's apartment in Vienna, where the author is immersed in slips of paper, manuscripts, newspaper cuttings, brochures, folders and books. The spatiality of the room is held to be an important condition for the specific appearance and an appropriate understanding of Mayröcker's literature. The guest, who is invited to the cramped room, can be seen as a deputy of the reader. Both of them have to step onto areas, which show narrow contacts between the body of the author and the hoarded materials. In that way, Friederike Mayröcker is a challenge for literary criticism as well as for modern archival theory. Le présent article traite de photographies de l'appartement viennois de Friederike Mayröcker dans lequel l'auteure est immergée dans des morceaux de papier, des manuscrits, des coupures de journaux, des brochures, des prospectus et des livres. La spatialité de la pièce apparaît comme une condition importante pour appréhender cet aspect spécifique et comme un moyen approprié pour comprendre la littérature mayröckerienne. L'hôte qui est invité dans la pièce exiguë peut être considéré comme un représentant du lecteur. Tous deux doivent avancer dans des espaces qui révèlent d'étroits contacts entre le corps de l'auteure et la masse de matériaux. A cet égard, Friederike Mayröcker constitue un défi pour la critique littéraire aussi bien que pour la théorie moderne d'archivage. Aurélie LE NEE Friederike Mayröcker et le surréalisme selon André Breton Friederike Mayröcker's work has often been defined as "surreal", even if the signification of the adjective remains vague. This paper tries to clarify this concept by referring to Breton's Theorization of Surrealism in the two manifestoes, and to highlight Friederike Mayröcker's relation to this movement. The confrontation of Breton's manifestoes with extracts from Mayröcker's Magische Blätter and Gesammelte Gedichte leads to an analysis of keywords of Surrealism such as madness, dream, psychic automatism, association of ideas, magic, surreality, and reveals not only similarities, but also important differences in Breton's and Friederike Mayröcker's conception and practice of their art. Friederike Mayröckers Werk wird oft als "surreal" bezeichnet, wobei die Bedeutung des Adjektivs vage bleibt. Der vorliegende Artikel versucht, den Begriff zu präzisieren, indem er sich auf Bretons Theoretisierung des Surrealismus in den beiden Manifesten bezieht, und Friederike Mayröckers Verhältnis zu dieser Strömung hervorzuheben. Die Gegenüberstellung der Manifeste Bretons mit Auszügen aus den Magischen Blättern und Gesammelten Gedichten Mayröckers führt zu einer Analyse von Kernbegriffen des Surrealismus wie Wahnsinn, Traum, automatischem Schreiben, Ideenassoziation, Magie, Surrealität, und bringt mehrere Ähnlichkeiten, aber auch wichtige Unterschiede zwischen Bretons und Friederike Mayröckers Kunstauffassung und -praxis ans Licht. Michael HAMMERSCHMID Stilleben. Reflexionen zur Ding-, Schreib- und Sprachwahrnehmung bei Friederike Mayröcker und mit Francis Ponge My essay focuses on the thing (Ding) as an entity (or thing itself) which crosses Friederike Mayröcker's work and is questioned deeply in "Stilleben" (1991) where Friederike Mayröcker refers to art and art history as well as to the status of language, writing, the book and the perception and creation of these entities. As a referring point the research of Francis Ponge in the field of things and their "visualization" in language helped a lot to open a space by comparing the poetics of these two great poets. The formulation of six thesis to Friederike Mayröcker's "Stilleben" tries to outline six views that interact with each other, so that the question of how we see things and their relation to language and what literature can thereby show us could be traced out more clearly. 1) The thing of "Stilleben" is the book, 2) The thing "book" is dissolved, 3) The image of "Stilleben" is the thing, 4) The thing must be created, 5) The "I" is a subject-object, 6) The thing is not the thing, but the poetic. Mon article se concentre sur la chose (Ding), comprise comme une entité (ou chose en soi) qui traverse l'oeuvre de Friederike Mayröcker et est interrogée de manière approfondie dans Stilleben (1991), ouvrage dans lequel Friederike Mayröcker se refère à l'art et à l'histoire de l'art aussi bien qu'au statut du langage, rattachant le livre, la perception et la création à ces entités. Prises comme point de référence, les recherches de Francis Ponge dans le domaine des choses et de leur "visualisation" dans le langage ont contribué à une comparaison entre les poétiques de ces deux grands auteurs. La formulation de six thèses sur Stilleben de Friederike Mayröcker tente d'esquisser six postulats qui interagissent les uns les autres de telle sorte que l'on peut cerner de manière plus précise la question de savoir comment nous percevons les choses et leur relation au langage et ce que la littérature peut nous montrer dans ce cas. 1) La chose de Stilleben est le livre, 2) La chose "livre" est dissoute, 3) L'image de Stilleben est la chose, 4) La chose doit être créée, 5) Le "je" est un sujet-objet, 6) La chose n'est pas la chose, mais la poétique. Françoise LARTILLOT Lire le poststructuralisme en poète. Résistance tropologique de Friederike Mayröcker dans les étu-des (2013) In études, Mayröcker's art establishes itself once again in a remarkable way with the specific use of French verbal and cultural fragments which enhance Mayröcker's tropological style. It reminds certainly of post-structuralist figurality (which is itself a result of the renewed interpretation of Symbolism), but it is combined with a sensitive and sensuous fabric : with this hybridization, Mayröcker fits into this tradition in an original way, and she resists the scourges of the contemporary era. In études behauptet sich Mayröckers Kunst durch den Einsatz von französischen Sprach- und Kulturfragmenten erneut auf beeindruckende Weise. Der darin aufscheinende tropologische Schreibduktus erinnert zwar an die poststrukturalistische Figuralität (als Ergebnis einer erneuten Deutung des Symbolismus), ist bei Mayröcker jedoch sinnlich und sensibel unterwandert : durch diese Anverwandlung reiht sich Mayröcker eigenwillig in diese Tradition ein und leistet Widerstand gegen die Plagen der kontemporären Zeit. Valérie BAUMANN "Tous frères (de) Grimm" , Jacques et Jean. Place du nom dans l'écriture de Friederike Mayröcker This paper proposes a close reading of a passage from Friederike Mayröcker's text entitled vom Umhalsen der Sperlingswand, oder 1 Schumannwahnsinn. This analysis will explain how the proper noun lost its raison d'être in Mayröcker's writing (particularly in this very text of poetic prose). The issue of "the monolingualism of the other" (Derrida) is confronted with a perception of things which discerns meaning as "point of flight of jouissance" (Barthes/Nancy). Diese Lektüre untersucht in der Weise vom close reading einen Auszug aus Friederike Mayröckers vom Umhalsen der Sperlingswand, oder 1 Schumannwahnsinn. Der Kommentar verdeutlicht, wie der Name (Eigenname) im Verfall liegt, was den Schreibgestus des "Schumannwahnsinns" anbelangt. Die nachvollziehbare Herausforderung vom "Monolinguismus des Anderen" (Derrida) bildet allerdings die Spannung zum Wahrhaben des Sinnes als "Fluchtpunktes der sinnlichen Lusterfahrung" (Barthes/Nancy). Andrei CORBEA-HOISIE Paul Celan Student an der Sorbonne The paper represents the first biographical synthesis dedicated to the university studies of the young Paul Celan, registered at Sorbonne immediately after his arrival in Paris in the summer of 1945, that is more than half of year after he had left Romania. The path towards obtaining the degree in "humanities" and his intentions to elaborate a PhD-thesis are placed in the larger context of his efforts to integrate himself in the French society on the one hand and in the context of his efforts to establish himself as a German-speaking poet, on the other. We exploit here a number of unpublished documentary materials from the French archive, as well as a number of interviews, again unpublished, that we took between 1998 and 2000 with a number of persons close at that time to Paul Celan. Cette étude est une première synthèse biographique consacrée aux études universitaires du jeune Paul Celan, qui s'est fait inscrire à la Sorbonne dès son arrivée à Paris pendant l'été 1948, plus de six mois après avoir quitté la Roumanie. Le trajet sur lequel il s'inscrivit pour l'obtention d'une maîtrise ès "Lettres" et son projet de thèse de doctorat sont placés dans le contexte plus large de son désir de s'intégrer à la société française mais aussi de s'affirmer en tant que poète de langue allemande. Cette étude exploite toute une série de documents inédits des archives françaises ainsi que des interviews, elles aussi inédites, que l'auteur a réalisées entre 1998 et 2000 auprès de personnalités qui faisaient partie à cette époque du cercle des proches de Paul Celan. Laurent DEDRYVERE Les guerres du Schleswig-Holstein, lieu de mémoire nationaliste dans l'Allemagne wilhelminienne The present paper deals with German nationalist "lieux de mémoire" (sites of memory) related to the Schleswig-Holstein wars (1848-1851 and 1864) in the German Empire. Eight historical novels, published between 1881 and 1914, were used as primary sources for this article. These books played an important part in the popula-rization of the historical arguments justifying the an-nexation of both duchies by Prussia. Most novels were written either while Köller was Oberpräsident of the Prussian province of Schleswig-Holstein, or a little later, and they can only be understood in the light of the Germanization policy which was carried out in this province. In the case of Northern Schleswig, nationalist intellectuals were confronted with two difficulties. Firstly, even the champions of the German cause in Northern Schleswig spoke a Danish dialect as their mother tongue. Secondly, individual members of one and the same family sometimes declared their support for different national camps. So neither the mother tongue and the national-political opinions, nor the "lineage" and the national-political opinions could be automatically equated. Most authors payed attention to the national peculiarities of Northern Schleswig in their work, whilst at the same time supporting the Germanization policy. The detour via the German history allowed a legitimation of the Köllerian politics. Some radical völkisch novelists apparently promoted a German-Danish reconciliation. But this was not aimed at the "real" Danish speakers. An imagined union of all Germanic peoples was at stake, not the political rights of an ethnic minority. Der vorliegende Artikel untersucht die deutschen nationalistischen Erinnerungsorte der beiden schleswig-holsteinischen Kriege (1848-1851 und 1864) im Deutschen Kaiserreich. Als Quelle dienen acht historische Romane, die zwischen 1881 und 1914 veröffentlicht wurden. Eine wesentliche Funktion dieser Werke bestand darin, historische Argumente für einen Verzicht Dänemarks auf die Herzogtümer und für ihre Abtretung an Preußen in populärer Form anzuführen. Die meisten Romane wurden während Köllers Oberpräsidentschaft in Schleswig-Holstein oder kurz danach verfasst und sind nur vor dem Hintergrund der Germanisierungspolitik in Nordschleswig zu verstehen. Die nationalistischen Intellektuellen waren im Falle Nordschleswigs mit zwei Schwierigkeiten konfrontiert. Erstens hatten selbst die Vorkämpfer der deutschen Sache in Nordschleswig einen dänischen Dialekt als Muttersprache. Zweitens bekannten sich manchmal Mitglieder ein und derselben Familie zu unterschiedlichen nationalen Lagern. Es gab also weder zwischen Muttersprache und national-politischer Gesinnung noch zwischen "Abstammung" und national-politischer Gesinnung eine systematische Korrelation. Die meisten Verfasser beachten in ihren Werken die nationalen Besonderheiten Schleswigs, sprechen sich aber gleichzeitig für die Germanisierungspolitik aus. Der Umweg über die jüngste deutsche Geschichte dient also der Legitimierung der Köllerschen Politik. Manche radikal völkischen Schriftsteller treten für eine deutsch-dänische Versöhnung ein. In keinem Fall sind aber die wirklichen Dänischsprachigen gemeint. Es geht um ein erträumtes Bündnis aller Germanen, nicht um die politischen Rechte einer ethnischen Minderheit.

Emblematic and mysterious, the giant clam has always inspired the curiosity of peoples ever since the first humans settled on the tropical shores of the Pacific and Indian oceans. A representation of the sacred or of power, but also, of course, a major food resource for many island communities, the giant clam is a token of influence in the culture of the peoples of the Pacific, a matrix for making tools, a currency ! Apart from its beauty and its role in art or beliefs, which have inspired human beings over the centuries, this group of species now interests the world of science in many of its aspects, whether in biology, ecology or its place in society : the giant clam still has a wealth of surprises in store. It is well worth being brought under the spotlights. The aim of the present work is precisely to describe the specificities of this outstanding group of species, and the broad range of issues that must be taken into account to ensure its conservation. We hope that once you have come to the end of these pages, which celebrate the giant clam in all its aspects, you will be convinced, as we are, that it is indeed... "a priceless emblem of the Pacific ! "

Le portrait Klesch, par Titien, de Guidobaldo II avec son fils Francesco Maria représente le duc d'Urbino dans ses pleins pouvoirs de commandant suprême des troupes papales avec son héritier à ses côtés. Ce rare double portrait en pied vient seulement d'être attribué à Titien après avoir entrepris des analyses et une restauration minutieuses qui révèlent une belle peinture au style "non finito" avec de superbes touches d'empâtement totalement typiques au maître. Tout ceci est illustré et développé dans ce nouveau livre. Titian provided portraits for the greatest men and women of Europe, Charles V and Philip II of Spain primary among them. For years the Klesch portrait was dismissed as a workshop product - partly because poor condition hid its true quality, but also because it was not believed that Titian could have deigned to create one for Guidobaldo, whose father Guidobaldo della Rovere (1514-1574) and family had a long history of patronizing the artist. Recent research, however, has thrown Guidobaldo's geopolitical significance into relief. He was supreme commander of Venice, the Papal States and then Spain. He sent thousands of soldiers to the major conflicts of his day, particularly the defense of Malta (1565) and the Battle of Lepanto (1571) and his engineers were sought throughout Europe for their ingenuity. In this volume full of new research, Ian Verstegen reveals that Guidobaldo was not peripheral but central to Italian politics and was regarded at several points in history as a key figure who could bring peace or who could influence major conflicts on the Italian peninsula, particularly the War of Siena, and then Pope Paul IV's offensive war against Spain. Anne-Marie Eze gives the first comprehensive examination of the painting's provenance, outlining the portrait's vicissitudes and reception at different moments in its near 500-year history, reexamining received wisdom about its past ownership, and presenting new documentary evidence to expand on and fill gaps in our knowledge of its whereabouts. Finally, Matthew Hayes and Ian Kennedy reflect on the technique, date, recent conservation, and authorship of the painting, proving it to be a masterpiece that only the great Titian could have created.

For futures studies and environmentalism the late 1960s and early 1970s were a heyday period of great publicity, and much scientific interest was devoted to them. The study 'Limits to Growth', commissioned by the Club of Rome, has played an important role for the further advancement of these fascinating fields. Each of them in its own way deals with the long term prospects of humankind and desirable future paths of humanity and the globe. This investigation illustrates a very important phase in the development of these two areas and writes a history of ideas and a history of impact of the Limits to Growth debate and other activities of the Club of Rome. It includes information that has so far only been known to a very limited number of directly involved individuals and looks into very recent stages of the sustainable development debate and newest developments of more pragmatic and critical futures studies. For the purpose of this study some 100 interviews have been made worldwide with very well known and often influential individuals. Among them are : Sicco Mansholt, Alexander King, Jan Tinbergen, Robert Jungk, Saburo Okita, Lord Kennet, Johan Galtung, Barry Commoner and Philip de Seynes.

Au Cameroun et au Nigeria, les taurins - petits bovins sans bosse - sont très minoritaires par rapport aux zébus. ils présentent pourtant l'avantage D'être mieux adaptés au milieu : résistants à la mouche tsé-tsé, ils pourraient aider à la mise en valeur des zones infestées et ils apparaissent dans certaines régions humides comme les seuls bovins aptes à favoriser l'inter-pénétration de l'agriculture et de l'élevage. Mais la relance de ces élevages, tant au Cameroun qu'au Nigeria, a toujours posé problème : l'imbrication du social, du religieux et du politique dont ils sont porteurs en fait des élevages archaïques. difficilement récupérables par les Sociétés villaGeoises contemporaines, et donc en voie d'extinction. La " laïcisation " du taurin et son introduction dans une économie de marché restent à faire. Cet ouvrage réunit des géographes, ethnologues, anthropologues, vétérinaires-zootechniciens. Il contribue à une meilleure compréhension du fonctionnement social des élevages, et apporte une description précise de ces animaux et de leur comportement : deux préalables nécessaires à l'identification de " nouveaux types d'éleveurs " et à la mise en œuvre de nouvelles pratiques zootechniques et sociales. In Cameroon and Nigerina, taurines - small humpless cattle -form a minority in comparison with zebu. Nevertheless, they are better suited to the environment. Taurines (Bos taurus) are resistant to tsetse fly and could help in the farming of infested zones and are the only cattle that can be reared it in combination with arable farming in certain wet regions However, relaunching taurine rearing in both Cameroon and Nigeria has always been a problem. The overlapping of the social religious and political spheres in which they are involved means that rearing is archaic, difficult to adopt by contemporary village societies and is therefore disappearing, The taurine remains to be rendered "secular" and incorporated in a market economy. Geographers, ethnologies, anthropologists and veterinary/zootechny specialists have contributed to this book. It provides better understanding of the social functioning of taurine rearing and a precise description of the cattle and their behaviour. The latter features are prerequisites for the identification of new types of animal farmers and the implementation of new zootechnical and social practices.
