L’extrémisme des croisés dans la Chanson de la croisade albigeoise
Authors: Lacroix Daniel
Published: December 2019

Entre chronique et chanson de geste, la Chanson de la croisade albigeoise , dans sa seconde partie anonyme, dénonce les exactions des croisés perpétrées en pays d’Oc. L’auteur reprend le motif épique du conseil où s’affrontent modérés et extrémistes, pour faire de Simon de Montfort un nouveau Roland, dont les excès mènent cette fois à l’échec et au péché.
La parole troublée : mensonge et aveu dans les Folies Tristan
Authors: Burle-Errecade Élodie
Published: December 2019

Les deux Folies Tristan relatent un épisode isolé de la célèbre légende tristanienne. Déguisé en fou, l’amant exilé revient incognito à la cour de Marc. Là, dans des propos apparemment sans queue ni tête, il formule une version poétique de l’histoire secrète des deux amants, où s’entremêlent dans une confusion linguistique élaborée aveux et mensonges, que ne savent décrypter ni le roi Marc ni même la reine Yseult.
Sur l’arête des cultures
Authors: Murat Michel
Published: December 2019

L’article porte sur le rapport entre le poète en latin et le poète en français que Rimbaud fut presque simultanément ; il prend appui sur les travaux de Georges Hugo Tucker, qui ont mis en évidence l’importance du corpus des vers latins et montré qu’ils étaient partie intégrante de l’oeuvre poétique. On étudie ainsi, à partir de quelques exemples, le transfert au vers français de structures caractéristiques du vers latin dans les poèmes de 1870 ; certaines caractéristiques lexicales des poèmes de 1871 ; et le rôle symbolique et fonctionnel que la pratique savante du latin a pu jouer dans l’élaboration de la syntaxe des Illuminations et d’ Une saison en enfer.
L’impatience du réel ou l’inscription du commun dans les fragments pascaliens
Authors: Magniont Gilles
Published: December 2019

Il s’agit ici de partir à la recherche d’un «discours naturel » que Pascal place de manière un peu mystérieuse sous le signe de la communauté. La scénographie d’un projet de préface montre que cette communauté idéale emprunte nombre de ses traits à l’espace pacifié des salons ; la conversation mondaine inspire alors une parole attentive à déjouer toute opposition. Ce modèle ne rend toutefois compte que d’une part des fragments ; le génie de Pascal n’est-il pas d’avoir prévenu, au-delà des fluctuations de l’interlocution, celles de la référence ? Dans l’économie de l’écriture apologétique, divers éléments originaux – usages du démonstratif, formes du discours rapporté – permettent d’intégrer les variables de l’expérience, et de rendre imperceptiblement commune une réalité partagée. Il apparaît donc que les accidents propres à la circonstance, que nous déplorons parfois dans la réception des Pensées

, constituaient dès l’origine une préoccupation majeure de Pascal.
Espace/espaces : le fragment des trois ordres
Authors: Papasogli Benedetta
Published: December 2019

À partir de l’étude littéraire du fragment des trois ordres, on tentera de montrer comment la question de l’espace croise, pour le scientifique et pour l’homme de foi, une représentation du monde quitté ou habité par Dieu. Le modèle nouveau de l’espace géométrique et physique permet de penser le vide de la vie intérieure du coeur, quand la venue de l’amour divin, qui remplit l’espace évidé des replis du coeur se traduit par d’autres images, puisant à des modèles symboliques, spirituels et affectifs. Selon l’espace indifférencié des scientifiques, «les pièces de l’apologie se disposent dans un espace polycentrique, non linéaire » , quand dans le fond intérieur et invisible du coeur, la paix doit venir des mouvements d’un amour qui le comble. »

Le cauchemar de l’histoire, Chien blanc à la lumière de La danse de Gengis Cohn
Authors: Roumette Julien
Published: December 2019

Gary fait dans son oeuvre un éloge constant de l’imagination. Réflexe vital, elle permet d’affronter l’histoire, de s’inventer destin et amour. Mais, à cause des pouvoirs qu’il lui reconnaît, Gary est plus conscient que quiconque des limites et des dangers de cette précieuse faculté. L’imagination peut aider à se mentir. Tout autant que guider, elle peut égarer. La conception de l’histoire comme un cauchemar sorti de l’imagination des hommes est le thème commun de deux oeuvres écrites à la suite l’une de l’autre, et qui constituent l’aboutissement de la réflexion de Gary sur l’idéalisme et l’engagement : Chien blanc et de La danse de Gengis Cohn . Gary y explore les différentes formes de l’imagination, interrogeant les frontières entre rêve et délire, action et imagination. La dimension politique et historique de l’idéalisme y est mise en question par ses conséquences sur les êtres dont il s’empare. L’écrivain, «professionnel de l’imagination » , est le spectateur privilégié de ces jeux tragiques de l’imagination et de la réalité. Lucide, mais impuissant, il a le rôle du prophète : c’est dans Chien blanc que Gary donne sa définition la plus incisive de l’écriture : «hurler, c’est-à-dire écrire » . C’est pourquoi cette oeuvre d’une lucidité historique étonnante sonne en même temps comme un adieu à l’histoire.
Derrière Gary, Conrad et la tragédie romanesque
Authors: Rozenberg Paul
Published: December 2019

Exilé russo-polonais naturalisé et romancier de l’aventure dans son autre langue, Conrad est pour Gary un frère-père, donc un modèle et un rival. Dans la tragédie romanesque inventée par Conrad, le destin n’est ni plus intelligent ni moins impitoyable que dans la tragédie grecque — sauf qu’il n’existe pas. L’homme est libre de personnaliser sa vie. Il s’agit d’arracher à l’histoire un destin qu’on sera seul à pouvoir signer. Cette course sournoise à l’autogestion du tragique, Conrad l’a décrite et s’en est gardé. Gary l’a observée chez bien d’autres – à qui il ne mégote ni son admiration ni sa pitié. Mais, précisément parce qu’il refuse de s’apitoyer sur son sort et se range du côté des vaincus, son oeuvre se dérobe aux sommations que sa soif de destin lui impose et dont il croit pouvoir s’arranger à coups d’esbroufes, d’espoirs et de générosités. Ainsi a-t-il placé une partie de son génie au service de sa ruine. Tant mieux pour nous, honneur à lui.
La Russie des Enchanteurs, ou l’art de tromper son monde
Authors: Diver Ruth Louise
Published: December 2019

Les enchanteurs, l’histoire d’une famille de charlatans vénitiens à la cour de Catherine II inspirée des mémoires de Casanova, peut être perçue comme transmission du patrimoine culturel russe de Gary et comme autofiction consolidant la construction de son identité russe. Mais une lecture attentive des éléments lexicaux russes dans le texte, de l’onomastique, des références à la littérature et au folklore, et de la représentation de l’histoire et de l’espace géographique et temporel, révèle un dédoublement dans ce projet. Les lecteurs russophones perçoivent la large part de provocation dans la représentation du monde russe, qui laisse deviner que la patrie russe de Gary se trouve uniquement dans la langue et la littérature russes. Par son caractère comique et profanateur, le texte s’inscrit dans la tradition d’auteurs russes hétéronymes, tels Kozma Proutkov et Abram Tertz, et annonce la création d’Émile Ajar.
Polémique et fantaisie dans l’œuvre critique de Barbey d’Aurevilly

«Polémique et fantaisie dans l’œuvre critique de Barbey d’Aurevilly»

Au sein d’une entreprise critique largement conçue par Barbey d’Aurevilly comme une guerre contre son siècle, le discours polémique aurevillien trouve dans la fantaisie un point d’articulation majeur. Si, sous la plume de Barbey, la fantaisie se fait volontiers l’expression honnie d’une époque dégradée, plongée dans la vanité d’un divertissement blagueur et vulgaire, bien des aspects de sa propre pratique critique ressortissent à l’écriture de la fantaisie. Mais c’est alors assurément d’une tout autre fantaisie que Barbey se réclame, lui qui entend tourner le dos tout à la fois à la frivolité de ses contemporains et à leur «gravité gourmée» pour prôner une critique spirituelle et acérée, puissamment imagée qui, sous des dehors désinvoltes et ironiques, entend réaliser l’alliance de la profondeur et de la légèreté. Aussi la fantaisie sous-tend-elle un projet critique qui entend étonner son lecteur, bouleverser ses certitudes pour l’amener à une autre épaisseur du réel. Entreprise de démystification et de conversion, la critique aurevillienne trouve dans l’écriture de la fantaisie les ressources d’une démarche critique qui est aussi métaphysique et heuristique.
La polémique au divan : un parallèle entre la violence romanesque et l’éreintement critique

«La polémique au divan : un parallèle entre la violence romanesque et

l’éreintement critique»

La confrontation entre Un prêtre marié et les textes critiques met au jour des similitudes déterminantes en ce qui concerne l’agressivité qu’on trouve au cœur même de la création aurevillienne. Une approche d’inspiration psychanalytique (entendons inspirée par la «textanalyse»), parce qu’elle permet de se demander à qui profite la polémique, n’en dévoilerait-elle pas les enjeux ? C’est dans cette perspective qu’il s’agit de voir d’abord à quoi sert l’agression par rapport à ce qui en fait l’objet. Dès qu’elle se fait violente, il n’est pas innocent que l’écriture des articles présente des analogies avec l’écriture romanesque : ne faut-il pas y reconnaître la manifestation d’un même dessein, celui de prendre littéralement possession de ce contre quoi porte l’attaque ? Et le processus d’appropriation ne recouvrerait-il pas lui-même une manipulation fantasmatique qui use de l’éreintement comme d’un masque ? Si les textes offrent le bénéfice de représentations hostiles, ils confèrent aussi la possibilité d’y transgresser l’interdit qui pèse sur la violence. Mais il convient d’observer ensuite que ces plaisirs fonctionnent d’autant mieux qu’il y a au sein de toute écriture polémique un élément qui en accroît encore la jouissance : la présence d’un tiers est inséparable des scènes les plus haineuses comme des pages les plus virulentes. Pourquoi faut-il ainsi donner à l’agression le statut de spectacle ? On le comprendra en montrant que les textes mettent l’accent sur le profit qui est consubstantiel plus qu’à l’acte, à sa perception. En outre, imposer in situ la réception de la violence, n’est-ce pas aller au-devant des condamnations dont elle fait nécessairement l’objet ? On le voit, la violence aurevillienne, au-delà du style qu’elle informe et de la raison sur laquelle elle s’appuie, est motivée en profondeur.
Le Poète déchu. Autopsie et testament d’un romantique
Authors: Ledda Sylvain
Published: December 2019

En 1839, Musset tente de renouer avec la flamboyante inspiration de La Confession d’un enfant du siècle, en ébauchant un second roman, Le Poète déchu. Le titre et la tonalité de ce nouveau récit personnel sont ceux de la réflexion et du sentiment d’échec : où est la fantaisie de la jeunesse ? Qu’en est-il du rapport de Musset aux genres ? Musset, dans ce texte d’analyse, revient sur ses années romantiques et sur la fonction de l’artiste à l’ère moderne. Plus qu’une ébauche parmi d’autres, Le Poète déchu reflète les incertitudes d’un écrivain qui tente de déchiffrer le mystère de la poésie et son dédain de la prose.

Authors: Tokareva Valentina B.
Published: December 2019

The main characteristics to a locus of control phenomenon in educational activity where the locus of control is analysed as the predominating position at decision-making and regulations of the activity are presented in the article. Accepting liability for events in life gives the chance to the subject of training to coordinate not only educational activity, but also the others as, for example, the sphere of interpersonal communication and so on. Interrelations of a locus of control and reflexivity at students of the sociological direction are revealed. The direct interrelation between the general internality and a system reflection and also the return interrelation between internality in the sphere of the interpersonal relations and an introspektion is established. The locus of control is characterised as accepting liability which in turn allows the subject of educational process to apply the efforts and to work according to the purposes.
Analysis of personality characteristics as a determinant of discrimination
Authors: Usova Nataliya V.
Published: December 2019

On the basis of the principle of complementarity, which takes into account the interaction of transitive and situational factors, the article discusses the characterological features of subjects exhibiting and experiencing discriminatory behaviour. Basing on empirical data we collected the author's questionnaire with elements of repertoire lattices aimed at identifying discriminatory attitudes of the person, Raymond Bernard Cattell's 16 Personality Factors Test and questionnaire test by Hansgeorg Schmieschek, Karl Leonhard, it is shown that subjects exposed to discriminatory attitudes are characterised by credulity, independence, an uncritical attitude towards oneself, while subjects exhibiting a discriminatory attitude are characterised by low normative behaviour, hypertimacy and internal stress. It is concluded that the study of the characterological characteristics of the subjects of discriminatory behaviour seems to be a very important aspect in its prevention and correction.

MODELLING OF AGING OF THREADS AND FIBRES WITH COMPUTER SIMULATION METHODS
Authors: Sevost'yanov P. A.
Published: December 2019

The article proposes an algorithm for computer statistical simulation of the formation and development of areas of defects and aging in one-dimensional fibrous materials of arbitrary finite length. The software implementation of the algorithm in the Matlab environment allowed to obtain a visual picture of the aging regions propagation dynamics, taking into account the probabilistic nature of the occurrence and propagation of defects. The model combines factors affecting the location of defect sources along the threads and fibres length, the violation intensity of the fibrous material properties in the defective areas, and the speed of its propagation along the threads and fibres length. The developed model allows to study the influence of numerous factors on the aging effects dynamics in one-dimensional materials, to rank the degree of their influence, to determine the area of efforts for the aging processes study in full-scale experiments. An example is given for realisations of defects along the length of the sample for stationary and non-stationary conditions of the thread aging, when within a short period of time the thread was subjected to intense exposure, which contributed to the acceleration of aging and destruction.

Authors: Bashkuev V.Yu. , Shenoeva P.A.
Published: December 2019

The article presents the analysis of the role of international medical cooperation in the development of healthcare in the Buryat-Mongolian ASSR in its early years. Prevalence of venereal diseases and tuberculosis in the Buryats was the main problem in the 1920s. At the same time, Buryat-Mongolia played an important role in the geopolitical plans to export revolution eastwards. Thus, the Bolsheviks paid much attention to the improvement of health of the Buryat people directing the incoming international aid toward these purposes. The authors expose causal relationships leading to the organization of one of the best known international joint projects of the 1920s in medicine – the 1928 Soviet-German syphilis expedition to Buryat-Mongolia. The article demonstrates the specific features of scientific and medical agendas of Soviet and German participants of the expedition. In the context of the development of healthcare in Buryatia, it assesses the outcomes of the 1928 expedition.

The awakening and the voices in Niketche: uma história de poligamia, by Paulina Chiziane
Authors: Da Silva Fernanda Oliveira , Da Silva Maria Teresa Salgado Guimarães
Published: December 2019

Questioning the positions occupy in a patriarchal society is one of Niketche's main reflections: Paulina Chiziane's story of polygamy. From the dialogues with the theories of Spivak, Sandra Gilbert, Susan Gubar, one can see how there is a need for women to have their place of speech, thus demonstrating a change in their situation of subordination. Paulina Chiziane notes that there is no place for women where they can talk and be heard and, therefore, writes a narrative with performed and told by a woman. With her writing, Chizian breaks the objectification oj women made by male literature. It is observed that the struggle for a speech space happens both in the real world, undertaken by the writer, and in the literary universe, performed by Rami. The awareness of having her voice silenced is driven by the anguish the character (and we dare say the writer too) feels as she becomes aware of her subordinate place in society. It is also noted that the use of popular sayings, oral knowledge and proverbs would be a way to bring women into a prominent position and also preserve the oral tradition and make an appreciation of African culture.
BELAJAR MENGHARGAI KEARIFAN LOKAL DARI YESUS DALAM MATIUS 22:32
Authors: Surbakti Noel
Published: December 2019

Gereja-gereja di Indonesia hidup dalam keberagaman suku, agama dan budaya. Kita dapat menemukan berbagai kearifan lokal yang belakangan ini terus diupayakan untuk dilestarikan. Namun tidak semua gereja bersedia terbuka terhadap kearifan lokal karena adanya anggapan bahwa kebudayaan lokal bertentangan dengan iman Kristen. Oleh karena itu tulisan ini hendak mengajak gereja di Indonesia untuk membuka ruang terhadap kearifan lokal. Upaya tersebut penulis wujudkan dengan mengajak gereja untuk melihat kepada sosok Yesus yang memopulerkan kearifan lokal yakni tradisi Theos Patros. Tradisi Theos Patros merupakan tradisi tertua bangsa Israel yang sudah dikenal sejak era leluhur tetapi sudah tidak populer lagi di zaman Yesus. Namun Yesus memopulerkan kembali tradisi tersebut sebab di dalamnya memiliki nilai luhur yang tinggi yang sejalan dengan penekanan Injil Matius.

Today, people are increasingly worried about environmental problems due to fuel shortage and generation of renewable energy sources. Among the renewable resources, wind generators and photovoltaic panels are primary competitors. For most of their applications, they have the advantages of having a load interface with different power converter circuits for maintenance and free of contamination, but their installation costs are high. Normally Photovoltaic modules also have relatively low conversion efficiency and Overall system cost of PV using Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) techniques are high. The volume can be reduced by the use of high-performance power conditioners that allow for maximum energy consumption. Existing solar power generation systems have some disadvantages of being all day as a result of less direct exposure to true sunlight. This work is aimed at exploring the functions of a MPPT system that includes installations of sophisticated distribution control (SDC) and Independent Component Analysis (ICA) methods. The duty cycle of power converter is significantly controlled using proposed SDC and ICA algorithms and guarantee MPPT operation at its highest efficiency. The function of proposed ICA and SDC has been compared with widely used in traditional algorithms in the MATLAB Simulink environment. Over 97% of capacity is achieved through the respective SDC and ICA methods.

Advanced concepts of hybrid photovoltaic thermal (PV/T) collectors are proposed to improve electrical efficiency and utilize the waste heat as thermal energy. The use of air, water, and combinations of the two are considered traditional techniques. The complexity is raised when using advanced state-of-the-art systems to improve the overall efficiency of PV/T such as employing nanofluids, nano-Phase Change Material (PCM), heat pump and jet impingement. This paper presents a review of novel designs which are proposed in the literature to enhance the performance of PV/T collectors and from it the evaluation criteria is derived. The comparison between different designs could be based on having same pumping power, size, or designs; depending on the element intended for the comparison. The designs also vary according to the bias assigned; whether to improve electrical performance more, or thermal performance. The common aspects observed in the literature are investigations of mass flow rate, impact of solar irradiance, and design parameters such as pipe material, configuration and diameters.

Carbon footprint is the amount of a greenhouse gas (GHG) produced as a result of human activities, usually expressed in equivalent kilograms of carbon dioxide (CO2). As the amount of greenhouse gases emission increases, the global temperature increases. In the context of a global awareness of the climate change, carbon footprint has recently become extensively calculated and ways to reduce it are proposed. The purpose of this research is to calculate the amount of carbon footprint discharged by students in College of Engineering (COE), Universiti Tenaga Nasional (UNITEN). From this research a model to calculate the carbon dioxide emission released from the activities done by the COE students particularly, is developed. Literature reviews are done leading to an explanation of what emission categories should be presented in a CO2 calculation for a university. This includes emission sources in each buildings, activities and services in COE particularly. Conducting survey is one of the methods to get the data from the students and staffs directly. From this data, the calculation is done and tabulated in the Excel template. From this template model, the carbon footprint for each or total students of COE can be known. Referring to this data, CO2 reduction strategy in COE particularly and UNITEN generally can be proposed.

In supporting United Nation Sustainable Development Goal (SDG), the government of Malaysia has implemented policy and initiative to improve energy efficiency. In spite of these initiates, the electricity consumption has increased yearly as reported by Malaysia Energy Commission (MEC). Hence, this study aims to (1) investigate factor on awareness in energy consumption and efficiency of residential users and their motivation to change their consumption behavior, and (2) examine the relationship between satisfaction of residential users as the moderating factor to their motivation to change user consumption behavior. A total of 400 residential energy users have participated in the survey and data was analyzed using Smart PLS. Results indicated that consumer awareness of monthly electrical bill and satisfaction towards energy efficient product has positive effect on consumer motivation about current energy issue. This may indicate that the increase in monthly electricity bill has an effect on consumer awareness on their electrical consumption. In addition, consumer satisfaction towards energy efficient product leads to higher motivation level of users to modify their energy consumption behavior.

Power outage is detrimental to the grid system therefore solving the issue within a short amount of time is indeed compulsory. Load restoration is one the solution required in ensuring the load can be connected within short amount of time. This study proposes a methodology to solve the load restoration problem using minimum spanning tree by determining the switching sequence according to the Prim’s algorithm. By using this algorithm, the switching is done based on the most minimum path which refer to the flow of power through the minimal value of weighted impedances. This method ensures that the losses is minimized and the voltage limit is not violated. The load restoration in this study focuses on reconfiguring the tie-lines in the 33-bus radial distribution network. Results obtained shows that Prim’s algorithm is effective in restoring the loads by reconfiguring the network in a way that total active power losses are minimized. This algorithm is also compared with the Binary Particle Swarm Optimization (BPSO) to prove the effectiveness of this method thus enhancing the power system reliability.
