L'éveil des sens et la nature complice chez Zola et Maupassant
2020
The paper discusses the problem of the awakening of senses and sensuality, with a visible connivance of nature, in characters of two novels belonging to the Realist/Naturalist movement. In Emile Zola’s The Sin of Father Mouret (1875), a fanatic priest having forgotten his clerical condition falls in love with a virgin girl who grew up in a savage garden. They are both involved in an erotic game set up by plants and animals living in the garden that want them to know the carnal aspect of love and push them to a physical close-up. In this way, the garden, named the Paradou, becomes both a kind of new Eden and an inferno of lust. In Guy de Maupassant’s Mont-Oriol (1887), a young and naïve aris…
Le silence des fous chez Zola et Maupassant
2017
Itis difficult to define all the meanings and connotations of silence depicted in literary works. In the 19th century, where the Realism and the Naturalism paid much attention to the study of both physical and mental illnesses, silence was considered as one of the distinctive signs of madness. The paper analyzes four examples of this phenomenon in selected Zola s and Maupassant s texts (novels and short stories) whose characters, all mad or maniac, embody various aspects of the silence regarded as a pathological condition of a human being.
Paysages de la solitude féminine : Flaubert, Zola, Maupassant
2019
The paper analyses three cases of feminine solitude as depicted in three novels belonging to the Realist and Naturalist movement. Flaubert’s Emma Bovary considers herself superior to the others who neither understand her nor see who she really is, and thus suffers during all her life and finally commits suicide. Zola’s Hélène Grandjean (One Page of Love) is not aware of the falseness of her life mode of an honest widow incapable of having a passionate love affair, and this unawareness costs her the life of her child. Maupassant’s Christiane Andermatt (Mont-Oriol), an aristocrat married to a Jewish banker in order to repair the family’s fortune, has an affair with a lady-killer who abandons …
Inconsistencies in the pozzolanic strength activity index (SAI) for silica fume according to EN and ASTM
2014
Published version of an article in the journal: Materials and Structures. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1617/s11527-014-0457-6 Open Access New supplementary cementitious materials claimed to possess pozzolan properties emerge frequently. This development is driven both by economic and environmental pressures. Properties of new materials are compared with those of materials already well known, such as silica fume. Several test methods are standardized for making such comparisons, regulated by both European (EN) and American (ASTM) standards. Standardization indicates that procedures are secured to make comparisons valid and informative. In this article the sensit…
Ar antimonu un alvu leģētu Bi2Se3 plānu kārtiņu un nanovadu sintēze un īpašības
2018
Pēdējos gados augusi interese par materiāliem ar topoloģiskā izolatora (TI) īpašībām. TI ir tilpumā nevadoši, bet to virsmai piemīt metāliskas īpašības. Lielākā daļa TI ir labi termoelektriski (TE) materiāli istabas temperatūrā. Lai panāktu to, ka virsmas vadītspēja ir dominējoša, vajadzīgs nomākt tilpuma vadītspēju, kas rodas no defektiem. Pirmkārt, tilpuma vadītspēju var samazināt, samazinot vismaz vienu no TI struktūras dimensijām līdz nanoizmēram, kas būtiski palielina virsmas – tilpuma attiecību, kā arī veicot materiāla vakanču kompensējošu leģēšanu. Leģēšana var tikt izmantota arī materiālu TE īpašību uzlabošanai, tā optimizējot lādiņnesēju koncentrāciju un saglabājot to kustīgumu. Da…
Émile Zola et la question juive avant l'affaire Dreyfus
2017
Emile Zola’s article entitled I accuse...! (1898), accusing the French government of anti-Semitism, has been considered since its publication as a decisive voice defending not only the rights of a particular Jew, but also, in a larger context, truth, morality and justice. However, the “Jewish question” was already important for Zola before writing this text, and some subjects concerning Jews and their social perception occur as well in the Rougon-Macquart cycle as in journalistic chronicles written by the author. The paper examines the ways in which the “Jewish question” appears in Zola’s various texts.

Aux antipodes du modèle normatif de la féminité : la femme criminelle dans "Thérèse Raquin" d’Émile Zola et "Thérèse Desqueyroux" de François Mauriac
2020
A woman who killed or intended to kill her husband is the main character in two novels belonging to the Realist movement. Both the protagonists have the same given name: Therese. Zola’s Therese Raquin is a “real” killer, incapable of winning the “physiological” influence of her nervous temperament, her cowardice and hypocrisy, while Mauriac’s Therese Desqueyroux, whose criminal intentions failed, is a mysterious person whose main problem is her incompatibility with her milieu. Both novels show a criminal woman as the opposite of the accepted model of womanliness.
Cadmium Metal–Organic Frameworks Based on Ditopic Triazamacrocyclic Linkers: Unusual Structural Features and Selective CO 2 Capture
2017
International audience; Two three-dimensional cadmium metal organic frameworks with general formula [Cd-2(L-1)(H2O)(3)](NO3)(0.7)(HCOO)(0.2)Br-0.1 (Cd2L1, L-1 = 1,4,7-tris(4-carboxybenzy1)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane) and Cd(HL2)(H2O)(2) (CdL2, L-2 = 1,4,7-tris(3-(4-benzoate)prop-2-yn-1-yl)-1,4,7-triazacydononane) based on 1,4,7-triazacyclononane N-functionalized by different arylcarboxylic acids were prepared under solvothermal conditions and characterized by single crystal X-ray analysis and porosity measurements. The crystal structure of Cd2L1 reveals a cationic net with a bcs topology,. and nodes are constituted by dinuclear cadmium complexes, in which each cadmium atom adopts a hexacoordin…
Biodegradable Metal-Organic Framework-Based Microrobots (MOFBOTs).
2020
Microrobots and metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have been identified as promising carriers for drug delivery applications. While clinical applications of microrobots are limited by their low drug loading efficiencies and the poor degradability of the materials used for their fabrication, MOFs lack motility and targeted drug delivery capabilities. The combination of these two fields marks the beginning of a new era; MOF‐based small‐scale robots (MOFBOTs) for biomedical applications. Yet, biodegradability is a major hurdle in the field of micro‐ and nanoswimmers including small‐scale robots. Here, a highly integrated MOFBOT that is able to realize magnetic locomotion, drug delivery, and selec…
