  • Astronomy and Astronomers in Jules Verne's Novels
    The Rˆole of Astronomy in Society and Culture Proceedings IAU Symposium No. 260, 2009 c 2009 International Astronomical Union D. Valls-Gabaud & A. Boksenberg, eds. DOI: 00.0000/X000000000000000X Astronomy and astronomers in Jules Verne’s novels Jacques Crovisier Observatoire de Paris, 5 place Jules Janssen, 92195 Meudon, France email: [email protected] Abstract. Almost all the Voyages Extraordinaires written by Jules Verne refer to astronomy. In some of them, astronomy is even the leading theme. However, Jules Verne was basically not learned in science. His knowledge of astronomy came from contemporaneous popular publications and discussions with specialists among his friends or his family. In this article, I examine, from the text and illustrations of his novels, how astronomy was perceived and conveyed by Jules Verne, with errors and limitations on the one hand, with great respect and enthusiasm on the other hand. This informs us on how astronomy was understood by an “honnˆete homme” in the late 19th century. Keywords. Verne J., literature, 19th century 1. Introduction Jules Verne (1828–1905) wrote more than 60 novels which constitute the Voyages Extraordinaires series†. Most of them were scientific novels, announcing modern science fiction. However, following the strong suggestions of his editor Pierre-Jules Hetzel, Jules Verne promoted science in his novels, so that they could be sold as educational material to the youth (Fig. 1). Jules Verne had no scientific education. He relied on popular publications and discussions with specialists chosen among friends and relatives. This article briefly presents several examples of how astronomy appears in the text and illustrations of the Voyages Extraordinaires.

Crovisier Observatoire de Paris LESIA, CNRS, UPMC, Université Paris-Diderot 5 place Jules Janssen, 92195 Meudon, France Jules Verne Nantes – 8 February 1828 Amiens – 24 March 1905 An original binding of Almost all the Voyages Extraordinaires written by Jules Verne refer to astronomy. In some of From the Earth to the Moon and Around the Moon them, astronomy is even the leading theme. However, Jules Verne was basically not learned in science. His knowledge of astronomy came from contemporaneous popular publications and discussions with specialists among his friends or his family. Here, we examine, from selected texts and illustrations of his novels, how astronomy — and especially planetary science — was perceived and conveyed by Jules Verne, with errors and limitations on the one hand, with great respect and enthusiasm on the other hand. Jules Verne was born in Nantes, where most of the manuscripts of his novels are now deposited in the municipal library. They were heavily edited by the publishers Pierre-Jules and Louis-Jules Hetzel, by Jules Verne himself, and (for the last ones) by his son Michel Verne. This poster briefly discusses how astronomy appears in the texts and illustrations of the Voyages Extraordinaires, concentrating on several examples among planetary science.

  • Gerry Mulligan Discography
    GERRY MULLIGAN DISCOGRAPHY GERRY MULLIGAN RECORDINGS, CONCERTS AND WHEREABOUTS by Gérard Dugelay, France and Kenneth Hallqvist, Sweden January 2011 Gerry Mulligan DISCOGRAPHY - Recordings, Concerts and Whereabouts by Gérard Dugelay & Kenneth Hallqvist - page No. 1 PREFACE BY GERARD DUGELAY I fell in love when I was younger I was a young jazz fan, when I discovered the music of Gerry Mulligan through a birthday gift from my father. This album was “Gerry Mulligan & Astor Piazzolla”. But it was through “Song for Strayhorn” (Carnegie Hall concert CTI album) I fell in love with the music of Gerry Mulligan. My impressions were: “How great this man is to be able to compose so nicely!, to improvise so marvellously! and to give us such feelings!” Step by step my interest for the music increased I bought regularly his albums and I became crazy from the Concert Jazz Band LPs. Then I appreciated the pianoless Quartets with Bob Brookmeyer (The Pleyel Concerts, which are easily available in France) and with Chet Baker. Just married with Danielle, I spent some days of our honey moon at Antwerp (Belgium) and I had the chance to see the Gerry Mulligan Orchestra in concert. After the concert my wife said: “During some songs I had lost you, you were with the music of Gerry Mulligan!!!” During these 30 years of travel in the music of Jeru, I bought many bootleg albums. One was very important, because it gave me a new direction in my passion: the discographical part. This was the album “Gerry Mulligan – Vol. 2, Live in Stockholm, May 1957”.

  • Storm-Stayed a “Story-Tale” Profile
    Audio Master Class Storm-Stayed A “story-tale” profile Created by Christine Nielsen Length: 60 minutes Profile description This class draws on the physical demands of some snow- and ice-related activities to create a coherent story, which contains embedded references to cycling-related form and effort. I teach this class as part of the silly season before Christmas, but there are no overt references to the holiday in the lyrics or coaching so you can use it at any time during the winter months. The playlist contains music by many Canadian artists, which is only fitting given that it has a winter theme. The term “storm-stayed” is an adjective unique to the maritime provinces and Ontario in Canada. It essentially means snowbound. Note: The paragraphs in red are reflections on what is being cued and why. Objective This class uses familiar experiences and sensations as guides and cues for effort and form while cycling. Participants can use discretion in choosing the level of effort. Warm-up December Snow, The Moody Blues, 5:11, 83 bpm Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Les Brown, 2:38, 72 bpm It is a winter morning and you have just looked out the window to see what happened overnight. The forecasters said a slow-moving storm would dump 30‒40 centimeters of snow on the region. It looks more like 50 centimeters to you. Time to get up and warm up so that you can confront what awaits you outside. Structure a warm-up as you prefer. It Snowed, Meaghan Smith, 3:44, 69 bpm It is important to make sure that your cardiovascular system is ready for the demands you will place on it as soon as you start to shovel.
