« Traduction des miracles et miracle de la traduction: Thomas H. Huxley, traducteur engagé »
2021
Thomas H. Huxley n’est guère connu comme traducteur mais L’Histoire de la translation des bienheureux martyrs S. Marcellin et S. Pierre d’Éginhard, qu’il traduit partiellement en anglais mérite un examen. Publié dans Nineteenth Century l’article « The Value of Witness to the Miraculous » (1889), s’inscrit dans un débat fondamental sur le caractère révélé de la religion chrétienne que mène Huxley en partie contre le monde religieux. Partielle, s’appuyant sur la traduction en français de Toulet et inscrite dans l’éthique de la croyance de W.K. Clifford, elle permet à Huxley d’invalider la valeur du témoignage d’Éginhard. Toujours commentée, sa traduction sert également de couverture au vérita…
A holistic perspective on the theoretical foundations for ICT4D research
2018
While many theories have guided research Information and Communication Technologies for Development (ICT4D), we are yet to construct a clear and coherent narrative that would help us answer the question of how ICT fosters development in underdeveloped communities. In this paper, we argue that one of the main reasons for this is that our holistic understanding of ICT4D is seldom grounded in theories to understand the core areas that define the field, namely, ICT, Development, and, ‘4’ which are the transformative processes that link the two. Through a brief literature review, we list theories that have informed ICT4D research in each of these areas. We present examples of theories, namely, C…
Ash in composting of source-separated catering waste.
2004
Our earlier experiments in small composters (220 l) indicated the favourable effect of ash from co-incineration of sorted dry waste on the composting of catering waste. The aim of this new study was to clarify further, at a scale of 10 m3, the feasibility of using similar ash as an additive in composting.Source-separated catering waste was mixed with bulking agent (peat and wood chips) and fuel ash from a small (4 MW) district heating power plant. Three compost mixes (CM) were obtained: CM I with 0%, CM II with 10% and CM III with 20 wt.% of fuel ash. These three different mixes were composted in a 10-m3 drum composter as three parallel experiments for 2 weeks each, from January to April 20…
Lay definitions of happiness across nations: The primacy of inner harmony and relational connectedness
2016
In well-being research the term happiness is often used as synonymous with life satisfaction. However, little is known about lay people's understanding of happiness. Building on the available literature, this study explored lay definitions of happiness across nations and cultural dimensions, analyzing their components and relationship with participants' demographic features. Participants were 2799 adults (age range = 30-60, 50% women) living in urban areas of Argentina, Brazil, Croatia, Hungary, India, Italy, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, South Africa, and United States. They completed the Eudaimonic and Hedonic Happiness Investigation (EHHI), reporting, among other information, th…

Ultrasound assisted method to increase soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD) of sewage sludge for digestion
2004
The aim of this study was to clarify the possibilities to increase the amount of soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD) and methane production of sludge using ultrasound technologies with and without oxidising agents. The study was done using multivariate data analyses. The most important factors affected were discovered. Ultrasonically assisted disintegration increased clearly the amount of SCOD of sludge. Also more methane was produced from treated sludge in anaerobic batch assays compared to the sludge with no ultrasonic treatment. Multivariate data analysis showed that ultrasonic power, dry solid content of sludge (DS), sludge temperature and ultrasonic treatment time have the most signi…
Draudzība kā reliģisks pārdzīvojums: Oksfordas kustības pieredze
2016
Mūsdienu pētniecība aizvien beižāk pievēršas draudzības nozīmei indivīda un sabiedrības dzīvē. Tādas iniciatīvas kā Harvardas longitudinālais pētījums pierādījuši ciešo draudzības ietekmi uz nozīmīgākajām cilvēka dzīves sfērām, tostarp veselību un ekonomisko labklājību. Draudzības pārdzīvojums mūsdienās tiek ierindots arī starp centrālajiem aspektiem reliģiskās pieredzes viedošanā. Šis darbs pievēršas 19. gadsimta reliģiskai kustībai Anglijas baznīcā, kuras teoloģijā un atstātajās liecībās īpaši bieži sastopama draudzības tēma. Veicot vēsturiski salīdzinošu analīzi, vispirms tiek demonstrēta draudzības kā reliģiska pārdzīvojuma koncepta attīstībai no antīkās pasaules līdz viktoriāņu Anglija…

La croyance dans le fumoir : “The Portrait of Mr. WH”, l’éthique de la croyance de William Kingdon Clifford et l’assentiment selon John Henry Newman
2023
Wilde’s story “The Portrait of Mr. W.H.” blurs literary genres, asserts the importance of the false and plays with reader expectations. It has generated a substantial exege- sis, perhaps lacking in interest in the multi-faceted debates on belief running through the 1870s-1880s. Wilde takes part in that debate through a text of uncertain status and complex editorial history, contrasting Newmanian assent with W.K. Clifford’s ethics of belief (1877), before asserting the supremacy of desire, thus ruining all assent and epistemically justified belief. To the demanding philosophical-religious theories of Clifford and Newman, Wilde responds with an ambiguous, subversive narrative, intended to com…
