Ce lecteur curieux est confronté à une structure en diptyque, qui lui propose toute une série de travaux (d’une riche diversité) portant justement sur la curiosité, rédigés par des chercheurs roumains, français, belge, américain ou marocain, spécialistes en littératures francophones, en langue française en contact linguistique avec d’autres idiomes des pays francophones, ou bien en théologie orthodoxe et pratique du christianisme en terre française. La première section du volume, consacrée au discours littéraire, est aussi la plus riche en matière de contributions. Les différentes approches des auteurs français ou francophones sont toutes sous-tendues par des regards curieux, voire espiègles des chercheurs désireux d’entraîner leurs lecteurs sur des sentiers moins battus des œuvres littéraires de ceux-ci, mettant en évidence dans leurs articles des aspects considérés plutôt étranges, hors-normes, particuliers, ou insolites. Qui pourrait résister à une pareille tentation, la curiosité étant connue et reconnue comme faisant partie des caractéristiques naturelles de l’être humain ? Elle n’a jamais cessé de stimuler l’imagination des lecteurs et la création des auteurs. De plus, elle engendre des imaginaires des plus incitants, que tout chercheur passionné de littérature francophone s’adonne à étudier. Des écrits d’Anne Hébert, de Marguerite Duras, de Balzac, de Williams Sassine, Justine Mintsa, Amélie Nothomb, de Proust, et des pièces médiévales de théâtre sont analysés ainsi à travers ce crible-moule de la curiosité dans la réception (par la lecture) et la construction discursive. La deuxième section du volume regroupe des articles et des études de réflexion spirituelle sur l’histoire et les particularités de l’Orthodoxie 9 d’expression française (une « curiosité » assez récente dans le paysage religieux de l’Hexagone), d’analyse linguistique et lexicale (du discours universitaire écrit ou de termes français à spécificité chrétienne-orthodoxe), de mise en évidence des actions institutionnelles de la francophonie, ou des particularités des contacts linguistiques manifestés entre le français et le parler marocain, ou le français et le roumain. Les contenus culturels de la francophonie transgressent donc les formes d’expression littéraire, pour se manifester à travers la spiritualité, le métissage linguistique et les contacts entre le français et des langues côtoyées ailleurs, en milieux francophones, ou la mise en pratique de projets concrets, institutionnels, de soutien et de valorisation. Les articles qui font partie de cette deuxième partie du volume se donnent comme enjeu

  • Salvador Dalí and Science, Beyond Mere Curiosity
    Salvador Dalí and science, beyond mere curiosity Carme Ruiz Centre for Dalinian Studies Fundació Gala-Salvador Dalí, Figueres Pasaje a la Ciencia, no.13 (2010) What do Stephen Hawking, Ramon Llull, Albert Einstein, Sigmund Freud, "Cosmic Glue", Werner Heisenberg, Watson and Crick, Dennis Gabor and Erwin Schrödinger have in common? The answer is simple: Salvador Dalí, a genial artist, who evolved amidst a multitude of facets, a universal Catalan who remained firmly attached to his home region, the Empordà. Salvador Dalí’s relationship with science began during his adolescence, for Dalí began to read scientific articles at a very early age. The artist uses its vocabulary in situations which we might in principle classify as non-scientific. That passion, which lasted throughout his life, was a fruit of the historical times that fell to him to experience — among the most fertile in the history of science, with spectacular technological advances. The painter’s library clearly reflected that passion: it contains a hundred or so books (with notes and comments in the margins) on various scientific aspects: physics, quantum mechanics, the origins of life, evolution and mathematics, as well as the many science journals he subscribed to in order to keep up to date with all the science news. Thanks to this, we can confidently assert that by following the work of Salvador Dalí we traverse an important period in 20th-century science, at least in relation to the scientific advances that particularly affected him. Among the painter’s conceptual preferences his major interests lay in the world of mathematics and optics.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find it good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper —■ left hand corner of a large sheet asd to continue photoing from !$ft to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Aesthetical Issues of Leonardo Da Vinci's and Pablo Picasso's
    heritage Article Aesthetical Issues of Leonardo Da Vinci’s and Pablo Picasso’s Paintings with Stochastic Evaluation G.-Fivos Sargentis * , Panayiotis Dimitriadis and Demetris Koutsoyiannis Laboratory of Hydrology and Water Resources Development, School of Civil Engineering, National Technical University of Athens, Heroon Polytechneiou 9, 157 80 Zographou, Greece; [email protected] (P.D.); [email protected] (D.K.) * Correspondence: fi[email protected] Received: 7 April 2020; Accepted: 21 April 2020; Published: 25 April 2020 Abstract: A physical process is characterized as complex when it is difficult to analyze or explain in a simple way. The complexity within an art painting is expected to be high, possibly comparable to that of nature. Therefore, constructions of artists (e.g., paintings, music, literature, etc.) are expected to be also of high complexity since they are produced by numerous human (e.g., logic, instinct, emotions, etc.) and non-human (e.g., quality of paints, paper, tools, etc.) processes interacting with each other in a complex manner. The result of the interaction among various processes is not a white-noise behavior, but one where clusters of high or low values of quantified attributes appear in a non-predictive manner, thus highly increasing the uncertainty and the variability. In this work, we analyze stochastic patterns in terms of the dependence structure of art paintings of Da Vinci and Picasso with a stochastic 2D tool and investigate the similarities or differences among the artworks. Keywords: aesthetic of art paintings; stochastic analysis of images; Leonardo Da Vinci; Pablo Picasso 1. Introduction The meaning of beauty is linked to the evolution of human civilization, and the analysis of the connection between the observer and the beauty in art and nature has always been of high interest in both philosophy and science.

  • Matila Ghyka's Memoires and Gustave Le Bon's Concept Of
    Roxana PATRAȘ Researcher „Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iaşi Iaşi, Romania Matila Ghyka’s Memoires and Gustave Le Bon’s Concept of “Dematerialization” Abstract: The present essay analyzes to what extent Gustave le Bon’s theories on the dematerialization of matter influence Matila Ghyka’s own way of treating his biography (actual life and virtual “lives”) in both fictional and non-fictional works. What strikes the most in Matila Ghyka’s style is a technique of extensive self- quotation, which is not mere egocentrism. Whereas le Bon does not discriminate between Force and Matter and states that Matter is an infinite reservoir of intra-atomic energy, in the particular case of Matila’s writings, the degree in which textual matter (recollections, memories) dissociates or re-crystalizes indicates the actual force encapsulated in the point of departure (the object of recollection, experience as such). Textual series bring testimony to Ghyka’s strive to burn out variants to invariant (Happiness, the Golden Ratio), to drive meaning to a state of transparency. Keywords: Dematerialization, Matter, Ether, Dreams, Memories, Series Who is Matila Ghyka? Supposing the readers of this essay have never heard of Matila Ghyka, I shall start by enumerating a list of names: Paul Valery, Leon-Paul Fargue, Marcel Proust, Antoine de Saint-Exupery, Lucien Fabre, Henri Poincare, Claude Farrere, Salvador Dali, and Gustave le Bon. The list can be broadened but, for reasons of space, I will just resume myself to saying that Ghyka was a very close friend to all these famous people. 475 Langue, civilisation, religion, histoire Friendships let aside, Matila Ghyka himself is a fascinating figure of the Romanian diaspora of the 50’ and 60’, quite unknown to his fellow countrymen because of Communist censure and post-transition disregard.
