Abstract

Pionnier de la littérature tamoule contemporaine, C. S. Chellappa lui donne avec son chef-d’œuvre, Vâdivâçal, un texte fondateur de la fiction moderne. La langue, colorée, dense, précise, est nouvelle, chargée des saveurs dialectales, vibrante de la vie intime des villageois. Le sujet est plus neuf encore : décrit minutieusement, le jallikkattu, jeu taurin millénaire en train de disparaître, est le cadre d’un conflit dramatique entre un taureau exceptionnel et la vie et l’honneur de deux générations, père et fils, de tombeurs de taureaux. La vision zoome, alterne et halète entre la foule festive et complice et le drame du duel entre l’homme et l’animal, l’empathie de l’auteur allant à tous, pour plus d’émotion et de vérité. « Quand vous aurez lu ces pages, vous garderez le souvenir du taureau, de l’homme et du vâdivâçal. J’ai conscience de vous introduire dans un monde nouveau. » (C.S. Chellappa, préface) A pioneer of contemporary Tamil literature, C. S. Chellappa gives us a founding text of modern Tamil fiction with his masterpiece, Vâdivâçal. The language is colourful, dense, precise, new, full of dialectal flavours, vibrant with the intimate life of the villagers. The subject is even more novel: described in detail, the jallikkattu, a centuries-old bullfighting game that is disappearing, is the setting for a dramatic conflict between an exceptional bull and the life and honour of two generations, father and son, of bullfighters. The vision zooms and alternates between the festive and complicit crowd and the drama of the duel between man and animal, the author's empathy going to all, for more emotion and truth. “Once you have read those pages you won’t forget the bull, the man and the vâdivâçal. I am aware that I introduce you into a new world.” (C.S. Chellappa, preface)

Abstract

Ludovic-Hildevert Cahagne (1826-1899), capucin, ordonné prêtre le 22 juin 1849. il devient évêque titulaire d'Adramithe en 1873 et vicaire apostolique de Galla, Éthiopie en 1875. Monseigneur Taurin Cahagne fut un véritable ambassadeur auprès du gouvernement français pour le compte de l’empereur d’Ethiopie. Pour ses services exceptionnels, fut fait Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur à une époque où les relations entre le gouvernement, le clergé et les ordres religieux étaient plus que tendues. Certains, supportaient mal de voir le catholicisme se répandre et se développer grâce à Monseigneur et sa vie fut riche d'aventures et de péripéties.

Abstract

Taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonic acid) is an enigmatic compound abounding in animal tissues. It is present at relatively high concentrations in all electrically excitable tissues such as the brain, sensory organs, the heart, and in certain endocrine glands. Some of its physiological functions are already established, for example as an essential nutrient during development and as a neuromodulator or osmolyte, but the cellular mechanisms are still mostly a matter of conjecture. Moreover, there are a number of other putative functions of taurine less well known at present. The 15th International Taurine Meeting is a multidisciplinary symposium and the participants present different fields of biological science. Based on the proceedings of this meeting, Taurine 6: Taurine Today presents the most recent research on Taurine in papers written by top scientists in the field.

Abstract

This volume provides the reader with an overview of taurine and its derivatives in modulating brain health. One of the highlights of this book is that taurine helps in the recovery of Alzheimer model mice from cognitive deficits by directly binding to oligomeric β-amyloid. In addition, this book includes very intriguing results from a study that looks into the effects of taurine-carbohydrate derivatives in stimulating fibrillogenesis of amyloid-b and in reducing Alzheimer-like behaviors. This book also highlights several new roles for taurine, including its novel effects on the various body structures encompassing the central nervous system, the cardiovascular system, the immune system, and the endocrine system, along with a role for taurine complements in nutrition. This edited book contains original articles and reviews based on oral and poster presentations at the 20th International Taurine Meeting held in Seoul, Korea in May 2016. The theme of this conference was ‘Taurine and Brain Health’. This volume will be relevant to anyone with an interest in the biological roles of taurine, from clinicians to nutritionists and from individuals working in the pharmaceutical industry to those working in food manufacturing.
