Abstract

Lorsque l'oracle de Delphes, en réponse à une question d'Œdipe sur ses origines, lui enjoint de ne pas rentrer à Corinthe et le pousse, par là même, vers le double crime de parricide et d'inceste qui fera de lui l'un des personnages les plus célèbres de l'Antiquité, il fait preuve d'une ambiguïté qui ne tardera pas à devenir synonyme d'un mode constitutif du tragique. C'est cette ambiguïté, dans ses formes diverses, que ce livre se propose d'étudier chez les descendants des tragiques grecs : William Shakespeare, Pierre Corneille, Jean Racine et Heinrich von Kleist

Abstract

This is an introductory account of the physics of elementary particles and their interactions, with a minimum of formal apparatus and an ease of reading which, at present, is found in few other books in physics. It is designed for graduate students and for physicists not specializing in the field. The various phenomena are interpreted and correlated largely by means of elementary theoretical arguments needing little background beyond a first course in quantum mechanics. Numerous references to the original literature will allow the reader to probe more deeply into the topics discussed. Selected topics include scattering, photoproduction, K-mesons and hyperons, theoretical models, weak decay processes, and analysis of recent experiments on nonconservation of parity.Originally published in 1958.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Abstract

"From 1951 to 1969, John Brinckerhoff (J. B.) Jackson founded, edited, and published Landscape, a magazine that changed the way scholars, writers, teachers, designers, planners, and artists came to understand the everyday places that surround us and influence us in fundamental ways. Then, as a lecturer at Harvard University and the University of California, Berkeley, Jackson further pioneered "landscape studies, " a field through which he continues to inspire those who study and interpret landscapes, whether urban, rural, suburban, social, or wild. Drawn to Landscape is the first book to present fully the many aspects of Jackson's career. Including original essays by those who not only knew him best but who have carried his torch to new heights in their own respective work, the book sheds valuable light on Jackson?s life and oeuvre, from the time of his childhood to his death in 1996, as well as on his many legacies that remain today. Also included, some pieces reproduced for the first time, is a wide-ranging display of Jackson's original drawings, watercolors, and teaching slides. J. B. Jackson taught us to pay attention to the often overlooked but defining features of our landscapes, such as the road and commercial strip, the garage and backyard, and flea markets and borderlands, as well as changing recreational uses of the land, the necessity for ruins and the inherent artificiality of historic preservation, and the importance of the clock--as opposed to the geographical and spiritual grounding of indigenous cultures--in defining our communities, societies, and economies. The book will be a welcome addition to anyone seeking, as Jackson urged, to "read the landscape" in order to understand our everyday world in new and enlightened ways."--Site web de l'éditeur. Le DVD d'accompagnement contient trois films: "Figure in a landscape: a conversation with J.B. Jackson", co-réalisé co-produit par Janet Mendelsohn et Claire Marino: un documentaire sur la vie, l'oeuvre et la vision de J.B. Jackson, "J.B. Jackson and the love of everyday places", réalisé et produit par Robert Calo, narration: Peter Coyote: une visite de différents lieux du Nouveau-Mexique et du Colorado en compagnie de J.B. Jackson, et "Interview: J.B. Jackson's legacy", co-produit et co-réalisé par Janet Mendelsohn et Chris Wilson: une série d'interviews de personnes ayant cotoyé ou ayant été influencés par J.B. Jackson. Enfin on y trouvera un porte-folio de dessins et de diapositives de J.B. Jackson.
