description: Solar-type stars, which shed angular momentum via magnetised stellar winds, enter the main sequence with a wide range of rotational periods $P_\text{rot}$. This initially wide range of rotational periods contracts and has mostly vanished by a stellar age $t\sim0.6$ Gyr, after which Solar-type stars spin according to the Skumanich relation $P_\text{rot}\propto\sqrt t$. Magnetohydrodynamic stellar wind models can improve our understanding of this convergence of rotation periods. We present wind models of fifteen young Solar-type stars aged from 24 Myr to 0.13 Gyr. With our previous wind models of stars aged 0.26 Gyr and 0.6 Gyr we obtain thirty consistent three-dimensional wind models of stars mapped with Zeeman-Doppler imaging - the largest such set to date. The models provide good cover of the pre-Skumanich phase of stellar spin-down in terms of rotation, magnetic field, and age. We find that the mass loss rate $\dot M\proptoΦ^{0.9\pm0.1}$ with a residual spread of 150% and that the wind angular momentum loss rate $\dot J\propto{}P_\text{rot}^{-1} Φ^{1.3\pm0.2}$ with a residual spread of 500% where $Φ$ is the unsigned surface magnetic flux. When comparing different magnetic field scalings for each single star we find a gradual reduction in the power-law exponent with increasing magnetic field strength.

description: Thermodynamic uncertainty relations (TURs) represent one of the few broad-based and fundamental relations in our toolbox for tackling the thermodynamics of nonequilibrium systems. One form of TUR quantifies the minimal energetic cost of achieving a certain precision in determining a nonequilibrium current. In this initial stage of our research program, our goal is to provide the quantum theoretical basis of TURs using microphysics models of linear open quantum systems where it is possible to obtain exact solutions. In paper [Dong et al., Entropy 2022, 24, 870], we show how TURs are rooted in the quantum uncertainty principles and the fluctuation–dissipation inequalities (FDI) under fully nonequilibrium conditions. In this paper, we shift our attention from the quantum basis to the thermal manifests. Using a microscopic model for the bath’s spectral density in quantum Brownian motion studies, we formulate a “thermal” FDI in the quantum nonequilibrium dynamics which is valid at high temperatures. This brings the quantum TURs we derive here to the classical domain and can thus be compared with some popular forms of TURs. In the thermal-energy-dominated regimes, our FDIs provide better estimates on the uncertainty of thermodynamic quantities. Our treatment includes full back-action from the environment onto the system. As a concrete example of the generalized current, we examine the energy flux or power entering the Brownian particle and find an exact expression of the corresponding current–current correlations. In so doing, we show that the statistical properties of the bath and the causality of the system+bath interaction both enter into the TURs obeyed by the thermodynamic quantities.

description: Using glucose time series data from a well measured population drawn from an electronic health record (EHR) repository, the variation in predictability of glucose values quantified by the time-delayed mutual information (TDMI) was explained using a mechanistic endocrine model and manual and automated review of written patient records. The results suggest that predictability of glucose varies with health state where the relationship (e.g., linear or inverse) depends on the source of the acuity. It was found that on a fine scale in parameter variation, the less insulin required to process glucose, a condition that correlates with good health, the more predictable glucose values were. Nevertheless, the most powerful effect on predictability in the EHR subpopulation was the presence or absence of variation in health state, specifically, in- and out-of-control glucose versus in-control glucose. Both of these results are clinically and scientifically relevant because the magnitude of glucose is the most commonly used indicator of health as opposed to glucose dynamics, thus providing for a connection between a mechanistic endocrine model and direct insight to human health via clinically collected data.

description: Konrad Pałubicki gehört zu den Hauptvertreter der polnischen Musikkultur im Gebiet von Pommern und Kujawien. In seinen Kompositionen spielt das Vokal- und Instrumentalschaffen eine bedeutsame Rolle. Die Inspiration für diese Werke war nicht nur die polnische Dichtung, sondern auch das Schaffen von Horacy, G. Apollinaire und J. Supervielle. Die Autorin erfasst analytisch in ihrem Artikel das Liederschaffen von Konrad Pałubicki in den einzelnen Perioden seiner Tätigkeit. Sie untersucht auch die Feststellung der Unabhängigkeit zwischen den Ereignissen aus dem Leben des Komponisten und der Wahl der entsprechenden Dichtung für seine Werke. Diese Kompositionen bilden eine tiefe Autoreflexion. Zudem wird das gesamte Vokal- und Instrumentalschaffen von Pałubicki mit dem Testamentszyklus Die letzten Sterne fliehen zur Dichtung der gegenwärtigen polnischen Dichter abgeschlossen.

description: Im XIX. Jahrhundert haben sich polnische Reisen nach Zentral- und Ostasien aus zwei Gründen ergeben: durch eigene Interessen am Orient oder aufgrund eines Zwangsaufenthal- tes in Sibirien. In diesem Artikel werden drei Beziehungen aus diesem exotischen Bereich besprochen (Jan Potocki, Maurycy August Beniowski und Agaton Giller), die differenzierte Perspektiven der Beschreibung von kulturell fremden Traditionen darstellen. Obwohl keiner von den hier erwähnten reisenden Forschern Orientalist war, wurden sie dank ihrer Beziehungen zu Sachkennerns dieser Thematik. Neben kognitiven Faktoren der hier besprochenen Reisen nach Ostasien, ist die Frage nach der Stilistik und Problematik gegenseitiger interkultureller Kontakte wichtig. Es stellt sich heraus, dass die Beziehungen und Tagebücher, mit den enthaltenen Beschreibungen der Formen von anderen Kulturen, als Ausdruck der eigenen Kultur und gleichzeitig als Ausdruck einer aus der einheimischen Kultur angenommenen Haltung gegenüber den Vor- stellungen der Wirklichkeit interpretiert werden können. Im Falle eines ausgedachten Bil- des von asiatischen Völkern werden die Bilder aus verschiedenen Perspektiven dargestellt: aus der des Kosmopoliten (Potocki), Flüchtlings (Beniowski) und Verbannten (Giller).

description: Context. The orbit of the giant planet discovered around beta Pic is slightly inclined with respect to the outer parts of the debris disc, which creates a warp in the inner debris disc. This inclination might be explained by gravitational interactions with other planets. Aims. We aim to search for additional giant planets located at smaller angular separations from the star. Methods. We used the new L'-band AGPM coronagraph on VLT/NACO, which provides an exquisite inner working angle. A long observing sequence was obtained on beta Pic in pupil-tracking mode. To derive sensitivity limits, the collected images were processed using a principal-component analysis technique specifically tailored to angular differential imaging. Results. No additional planet is detected down to an angular separation of 0.2" with a sensitivity better than 5 MJup. Meaningful upper limits (< 10 MJup) are derived down to an angular separation of 0.1", which corresponds to 2 AU at the distance of beta Pic.

description: Airborne wind energy is a new renewable technology that promises to deliver electricity at low costs and in large quantities. Despite the steadily growing interest in this field, very limited results with real-world data have been reported so far, due to the difficulty faced by researchers when realizing an experimental setup. Indeed airborne wind energy prototypes are mechatronic devices involving many multidisciplinary aspects, for which there are currently no established design guidelines. With the aim of making research in airborne wind energy accessible to a larger number of researchers, this work provides such guidelines for a small-scale prototype. The considered system has no energy generation capabilities, but it can be realized at low costs, used with little restrictions and it allows one to test many aspects of the technology, from sensors to actuators to wing design and materials. In addition to the guidelines, the paper provides the details of the design and costs of an experimental setup realized at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and successfully used to develop and test sensor fusion and automatic control solutions.

description: Studying physiology and pathophysiology over a broad population for long periods of time is difficult primarily because collecting human physiologic data can be intrusive, dangerous, and expensive. One solution is to use data that have been collected for a different purpose. Electronic health record (EHR) data promise to support the development and testing of mechanistic physiologic models on diverse populations and allow correlation with clinical outcomes, but limitations in the data have thus far thwarted such use. For example, using uncontrolled population-scale EHR data to verify the outcome of time dependent behavior of mechanistic, constructive models can be difficult because: (i) aggregation of the population can obscure or generate a signal, (ii) there is often no control population with a well understood health state, and (iii) diversity in how the population is measured can make the data difficult to fit into conventional analysis techniques. This paper shows that it is possible to use EHR data to test a physiological model for a population and over long time scales. Specifically, a methodology is developed and demonstrated for testing a mechanistic, time-dependent, physiological model of serum glucose dynamics with uncontrolled, population-scale, physiological patient data extracted from an EHR repository. It is shown that there is no observable daily variation the normalized mean glucose for any EHR subpopulations. In contrast, a derived value, daily variation in nonlinear correlation quantified by the time-delayed mutual information (TDMI), did reveal the intuitively expected diurnal variation in glucose levels amongst a random population of humans. Moreover, in a population of continuously (tube) fed patients, there was no observable TDMI-based diurnal signal. These TDMI-based signals, via a glucose insulin model, were then connected with human feeding patterns. In particular, a constructive physiological model was shown to correctly predict the difference between the general uncontrolled population and a subpopulation whose feeding was controlled.

description: In dem Artikel wird eines der wichtigsten Elemente des (reise)literarischen Nachlasses im XIX. Jahrhundert, nämlich das Wirtshaus, dargestellt. Charakteristisch für die damalige kulturelle Wirklichkeit war die Tatsache, dass diese Gasthäuser von den Vertretern der jüdischen Gemeinde geführt wurden. Diese Situation war ein Ergebnis der im XIX Jahrhundert herrschenden Gesetzgebung, die die Ausübung von anderen Berufen als den des Gastwirtes für Juden verbot. Gasthäuser wurden im multikulturellem Polen und später nach dem Verlust der Unabhängigkeit eine Schnittstelle von Interessen folgender drei ökonomischer Instanzen: der polnischen Gutsbesitzer, der jüdischen Pächter und polnischer Bauern. Bei einer Gelegenheit der ökonomischen Verhältnisse kam es auch zu einem spezifischen kulturellen Austausch. Für den polnischen Bauer war ein Wirtshaus nicht nur eine Anlaufstelle, an der er sich nach aktuellen Informationen erkundigen konnte, sondern auch ein Forum, in dem Wissen über die weite Welt ausgetauscht wurde. Die Bilder der ländlichen, von Juden geführten Wirtshäuser, wurde ein Thema vieler Werke der polnischen Literatur. Folgende Autoren sind zu erwähnen: F. Kowalski, S. K. Potocki, W. Wiącek, E. A. Odyniec, J. I. Kraszewski. Das ländliche Wirtshaus in einer typischen Beschreibung ist meistens ein Ort, an dem die Juden die polnischen Bauern ans Trinken gewöhnen und mit Krediten oder anderen Verpflichtungen abhängig machen. In einem kleineren Ausmaß wird auch eine gute Seite des Charakters und nationaler Eigenschaften der Juden gezeigt. Es wird aber darüber geschwiegen, dass die Juden zur Ausübung von Funktion des Pächters von dem damaligen Recht und polnischen Gutsbesitzern gezwungen wurden.

description: Entrepreneurial groups face a twinned challenge: recognizing and implementing new ideas. We argue that entrepreneurship is less about importing ideas than about generating new knowledge by recombining resources. In contrast to the brokerage-plus-closure perspective, we address the overlapping of cohesive group structures. In analyzing the network processes of intercohesion, we identify a distinctive network topology: the structural fold. Actors at the structural fold are multiple insiders, facilitating familiar access to diverse resources. Our data set records personnel ties among the largest 1,696 Hungarian enterprises from 1987 to 2001. First, we test whether structural folding contributes to group performance. Second, because entrepreneurship is a process of generative disruption, we test the contribution of structural folds to group instability. Third, we move from dynamic methods to historical network analysis and demonstrate that coherence is a property of interwoven lineages of cohesion, built up through repeated separation and reunification.

description: Der Artikel stellt den Prozess der Kristallisation der Idee von nationaler Musik in den Vereinigten Staaten dar. Die Autorin beschreibt drei Phasen in der Entwicklung des Idioms der nationalen amerikanischen Musik: In der ersten Phase (XIX Jahrhundert) wird der musikalische Amerikanismus nur mündlich von den Komponisten proklamiert. Häufig handelte es sich um Immigranten, die nicht daran interessiert waren, einen nationalen Stil zu erschaffen. Die zweite Phase (Übergang vom XIX. zum XX Jahrhundert) ist durch das Interesse an der einheimischen Folklore und auch an deren Musik geprägt. Von besonderem Interesse war die Musik der amerikanischen Ureinwohner und Afroamerikaner. Die letzte Phase in den zwanziger und dreißiger Jahren des XX Jahrhundert ist durch das die institutionalisierte Förderung der amerikanischen Musik gekennzeichnet. Die Meinungen der Komponisten und das Erscheinen vieler Organisationen, die die Idee einer ame rikanischen Musik stützen, zeugt von einem Bewusstsein, dass es notwendig ist, ein echtes, amerikanisches musikalisches Idiom zu bestimmen. Auf der Grundlage von Aussagen amerikanischer Komponisten und durch das Zitieren amerikanischer Literatur veranschaulicht die Autorin nicht nur die Chronologie des Prozesses, sondern stellt auch den sehr komplexen Terminus der „nationalen amerikanischen Musik” in den verschiedenen Entwicklungsphasen dar.

description: Context. Observations of $\rm ^{14}N/^{15}N$ in the interstellar medium are becoming more frequent thanks to the increased telescope capabilities. However, interpreting these data is still puzzling. In particular, measurements of $\rm ^{14}N/^{15}N$ in diazenylium revealed high levels of anti-fractionation in cold cores. Aims. Furuya & Aikawa (2018), using astrophysical simulations coupled with a gas-grain chemical code, concluded that the $^{15}$N-depletion in prestellar cores could be inherited from the initial stages, when $\rm ^{14}N^{15}N$ is selectively photodissociated and 15N atoms deplete onto the dust grain, forming ammonia ices. We aim to test this hypothesis. Methods. We targeted three sources (the prestellar core L1544, the protostellar envelope IRAS4A, and the shocked region L1157-B1) with distinct degrees of desorption or sputtering of the ammonia ices. We observed the NH3 isotopologues with the GBT, and we inferred the $\rm ^{14}N/^{15}N$ via a spectral fitting of the observed inversion transitions. Results. $^{15}$NH3(1,1) is detected in L1544 and IRAS4A, whilst only upper limits are deduced in L1157-B1. The NH3 isotopic ratio is significantly lower towards the protostar than at the centre of L1544, where it is consistent with the elemental value. We also present the first spatially resolved map of NH3 nitrogen isotopic ratio towards L1544. Conclusions. Our results are in agreement with the hypothesis that ammonia ices are enriched in $^{15}$N, leading to a decrease of the $\rm ^{14}N/^{15}N$ ratio when the ices are sublimated into the gas phase for instance due to the temperature rise in protostellar envelopes. The ammonia $\rm ^{14}N/^{15}N$ value at the centre of L1544 is a factor of 2 lower than that of N2H+, suggesting that the dominant formation pathway is hydrogenation of N atoms on dust grains, followed by non-thermal desorption.

description: Many high-throughput genomic experiments, such as Synthetic Genetic Array and yeast two-hybrid, use colony growth on solid media as a screen metric. These experiments routinely generate over 100,000 data points, making data analysis a time consuming and painstaking process. Here we describe ScreenMill, a new software suite that automates image analysis and simplifies data review and analysis for high-throughput biological experiments. The ScreenMill, software suite includes three software tools or "engines": an open source Colony Measurement Engine (CM Engine) to quantitate colony growth data from plate images, a web-based Data Review Engine (DR Engine) to validate and analyze quantitative screen data, and a web-based Statistics Visualization Engine (SV Engine) to visualize screen data with statistical information overlaid. The methods and software described here can be applied to any screen in which growth is measured by colony size. In addition, the DR Engine and SV Engine can be used to visualize and analyze other types of quantitative high-throughput data. ScreenMill automates quantification, analysis and visualization of high-throughput screen data. The algorithms implemented in ScreenMill are transparent allowing users to be confident about the results ScreenMill produces. Taken together, the tools of ScreenMill offer biologists a simple and flexible way of analyzing their data, without requiring programming skills.

description: Nervous systems are generally bilaterally symmetric on a gross structural and organizational level but are strongly lateralized (left/right asymmetric) on a functional level. It has been previously noted that in vertebrate nervous systems, symmetrically positioned, bilateral groups of neurons in functionally lateralized brain regions differ in the size of their soma. The genetic mechanisms that control these left/right asymmetric soma size differences are unknown. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans offers the opportunity to study this question with single neuron resolution. A pair of chemosensory neurons (ASEL and ASER), which are bilaterally symmetric on several levels (projections, synaptic connectivity, gene expression patterns), are functionally lateralized in that they express distinct chemoreceptors and sense distinct chemosensory cues. We describe here that ASEL and ASER also differ substantially in size (soma volume, axonal and dendritic diameter), a feature that is predicted to change the voltage conduction properties of the two sensory neurons. This difference in size is not dependent on sensory input or neuronal activity but developmentally programmed by a pathway of gene regulatory factors that also control left/right asymmetric chemoreceptor expression of the two ASE neurons. This regulatory pathway funnels via the DIE-1 Zn finger transcription factor into the left/right asymmetric distribution of nucleoli that contain the rRNA regulator Fibrillarin/FIB-1, a RNA methyltransferase implicated in the non-hereditary immune disease scleroderma, which we find to be essential to establish the size differences between ASEL and ASER. Taken together, our findings reveal a remarkable conservation of the linkage of functional lateralization with size differences across phylogeny and provide the first insights into the developmentally programmed regulatory mechanisms that control neuron size lateralities.

description: The gamma-ray binary LS I+61 303 has been widely monitored at different wavelengths since its discovery more than sixty years ago. However, the nature of the compact object and the peculiar behavior of the system are still largely debated. Aimed at investigating the rapid X-ray variability of LS I+61 303, we have analysed all the archival RXTE/PCA data of the source, taken between 1996 and 2011. The timing analysis yields a periodicity of $P\sim 26.6\pm 0.3$ days, which is statistically compatible with several periodicities reported in the literature for LS I+61 303. Using this period, we performed a data phase-resolved analysis to produce a set of phase-bin-averaged energy spectra and power density spectra. These power density spectra are dominated by weak red noise below 0.1 Hz, and show no signal above this frequency. The amplitude of the red noise varies mildly with the phase, and shows a maximum that coincides with a dip of the X-ray flux and a softer photon index. Aside from low-frequency noise, this analysis does not provide any statistically significant periodic or quasi-periodic timing feature in the RXTE/PCA data of LS I+61 303.

description: Ukraińska muzyka fortepianowa jako integralny element i czynnik tożsamości europej- skiej kultury artystycznej ukształtowała się w końcu XX wieku. Bazą do powstania tego gatunku muzyki były narodowy folklor oraz europejskie tradycje romantyczne, asymilowa- ne przez ukraińskich kompozytorów końca XIX wieku. Panujące w pierwszym trzydzie- stoleciu XX wieku wpływy muzyki rosyjskiej i europejskiego modernizmu, a następnie narzucone w drugim trzydziestoleciu sztywne ramy realizmu socjalistycznego zostały na- stępnie przezwyciężone dzięki pojawieniu się tzw. nurtu „ukraińskiej awangardy”. W ostatnim trzydziestoleciu minionego wieku charakterystyczne dla ukraińskiej muzyki fortepianowej stały się jej następujące właściwości: „intertekstualność” jako jedna z możliwości odczytania na nowo tradycji; „nowa ludowa fala”, w ramach której współczesny język kompozytorski syntetyzuje archaiczne melodie ludowe, rytmy tańców narodowych oraz struktury muzyczne typowe dla ukraińskiej muzyki; „gra z tradycją” na poziomie epok czasowych, stylów, gatunków i form muzycznych; „polistylizm” jako metajęzyk, który łączy w sobie wszystkie osiągnięcia kulturalne z przeszłości i teraźniejszości. W ramach tego nurtu muzycznego nastąpił wzrost zainteresowań muzycznej elity pradawnymi wartościami narodu ukraińskiego, w szczególności religijnymi ideałami rozumianymi jako wyższe symbole duchowości.

description: Multiple studies have suggested that prenatal exposure to either allergens or air pollution may increase the risk for the development of allergic immune responses in young offspring. However, the effects of prenatal environmental exposures on adult offspring have not been well-studied. We hypothesized that combined prenatal exposure to Aspergillus fumigatus (A. fumigatus) allergen and diesel exhaust particles will be associated with altered IgE production, airway inflammation, airway hyperreactivity (AHR), and airway remodeling of adult offspring. Following sensitization via the airway route to A. fumigatus and mating, pregnant BALB/c mice were exposed to additional A. fumigatus and/or diesel exhaust particles. At age 9-10 weeks, their offspring were sensitized and challenged with A. fumigatus. We found that adult offspring from mice that were exposed to A. fumigatus or diesel exhaust particles during pregnancy experienced decreases in IgE production. Adult offspring of mice that were exposed to both A. fumigatus and diesel exhaust particles during pregnancy experienced decreases in airway eosinophilia. These results suggest that, in this model, allergen and/or diesel administration during pregnancy may be associated with protection from developing systemic and airway allergic immune responses in the adult offspring.

description: Cells are constantly exposed to stresses from cellular metabolites as well as environmental genotoxins. DNA damage caused by these genotoxins can be efficiently fixed by DNA repair in cooperation with cell cycle checkpoints. Unrepaired DNA lesions can lead to cell death, gene mutation and cancer. The Rad1 protein, evolutionarily conserved from yeast to humans, exists in cells as monomer as well as a component in the 9-1-1 protein complex. Rad1 plays crucial roles in DNA repair and cell cycle checkpoint control, but its contribution to carcinogenesis is unknown.
To address this question, we constructed mice with a deletion of Mrad1. Matings between heterozygous Mrad1 mutant mice produced Mrad1+/+ and Mrad1+/- but no Mrad1-/- progeny, suggesting the Mrad1 null is embryonic lethal. Mrad1+/- mice demonstrated no overt abnormalities up to one and half years of age. DMBA-TPA combinational treatment was used to induce tumors on mouse skin. Tumors were larger, more numerous, and appeared earlier on the skin of Mrad1+/- mice compared to Mrad1+/+ animals. Keratinocytes isolated from Mrad1+/- mice had significantly more spontaneous DNA double strand breaks, proliferated slower and had slightly enhanced spontaneous apoptosis than Mrad1+/+ control cells.
These data suggest that Mrad1 is important for preventing tumor development, probably through maintaining genomic integrity. The effects of heterozygous deletion of Mrad1 on proliferation and apoptosis of keratinocytes is different from those resulted from Mrad9 heterozygous deletion (from our previous study), suggesting that Mrad1 also functions independent of Mrad9 besides its role in the Mrad9-Mrad1-Mhus1 complex in mouse cells.

description: Tabling in logic programming has been used to eliminate redundant computation and also to stop infinite loop. In this paper we investigate another possibility of tabling, i.e. to compute an infinite sum of probabilities for probabilistic logic programs. Using PRISM, a logic-based probabilistic modeling language with a tabling mechanism, we generalize prefix probability computation for probabilistic context free grammars (PCFGs) to probabilistic logic programs. Given a top-goal, we search for all proofs with tabling and obtain an explanation graph which compresses them and may be cyclic. We then convert the explanation graph to a set of linear probability equations and solve them by matrix operation. The solution gives us the probability of the top-goal, which, in nature, is an infinite sum of probabilities. Our general approach to prefix probability computation through tabling not only allows to deal with non-PCFGs such as probabilistic left-corner grammars (PLCGs) but has applications such as plan recognition and probabilistic model checking and makes it possible to compute probability for probabilistic models describing cyclic relations.

description: It is not often our privilege to write on writers recently treated by Newsweek, Playboy (francais), Der Spiegel, Time: Bernard-Henri Levy, Andre Glucksmann, Jean-Marie Benoist; and Maurice Clavel, Guy Lardreau, Christian Jambet, Philippe Nemo...

The critical response in the French academy has been one of derision. (There has been a good deal of favorable response, admirably recorded in Contre la nouvelle philosophie, especially in the rich footnotes. A bizarre taste of it may be had from Delivrance: face & face [Paris: Seuil, 1977], transcription of a series of television encounters between Maurice Clavel and Philippe Sollers.) The editor of La Quinzaine litteraire [no. 257, 1-15 June, 1977] felt obliged to apologize obliquely in introducing what seemed to have "turned out to be" a collection of positive reviews of some of the texts of the new philosophy. By contrast, the famous newsmagazines are enthusiastic. They mention that the new philosophers are young (actually, Clavel will not see fifty again); that they are handsome (actually, only Levy and Glucksmann are, perhaps Benoist as well; the others' photographs are never printed); that they are erudite (we would submit that they are schoolmen, and that their material seems erudite because academic philosophy, in whatever guise, hardly ever hits the bestseller lists); that they write out of disillusionment with the events of May 1968 in France, that they are the greatest thing to hit the French scene since Sartre, and that they champion the rights of the individual against any theory of collectivism or state control.

Whether these persons are indeed champions of the rights of the common man is a question we will examine in greater detail. Here suffice it to say that the references to sixty-eight and Sartre are supplied repeatedly by the new philosophers themselves. The discussion of the role of 1968 in the new philosophy in Aubral and Delcourt's book is most astute; but the discussion of the group's relationship to the French intellectual scene after Sartre (so to speak) is less good.
