Abstract

Le 20e siècle a été, à plus d’un titre, celui de l’électron. Gageons que celui que nous vivons sera celui du photon. En prémisse de cette révolution annoncée, ces dernières décennies ont vu l’éclosion accélérée, parfois fulgurante, des techniques dans plusieurs domaines de la photonique – parmi lesquels la photographie, le laser ou l’astronomie… Ces progrès très récents viennent couronner plusieurs siècles d’une maturation lente et chaotique du savoir humain. On la doit, cette maturation, à la créativité et à la pugnacité d’une poignée de physiciens et mathématiciens bâtisseurs, qui ont laissé leur empreinte à travers les âges. On imagine mal aujourd’hui le parcours de ces savants, grands esprits audacieux, caractères courageux et trempés, fins politologues, qui ont construit la science que nous pratiquons et imaginé le monde tel que nous le connaissons aujourd’hui. Ce livre reprend, à travers une sélection de biographies, comme autant de trajectoires symboliques, les grandes lignes de cette aventure millénaire.

Abstract

Poetic, witty, and ever so faintly surreal, Sefer delicately explores the legacy of the Holocaust for the postwar generation, a generation for whom a devastating history has grown distant, both temporally and emotionally. Much like memory itself, Sefer speaks to us obliquely, through the juxtaposition of images and vignettes rather than through the construction of a linear narrative. With its fragmentary structure and its preference for hints rather than explanations, the novel belongs to the realm of the postmodern, while it also incorporates subtle elements of magical realism.
