Jean Vezin : discurs llegit a la cerimònia d'investidura celebrada a la sala d'actes de l'edifici del Rectorat el dia 27 d'octubre de l'any 2010

Nascut a Vannes (Morbihan, França) l'any 1933, Jean Vezin va obtenir el títol d'Archiviste Paléographe per l'École des Chartes l'any 1958. Des d'aquest mateix any i fins al 1960 va ser membre de l'École des Hautes Études Hispaniques (Casa de Velázquez, Madrid) i, posteriorment, conservador de la secció de manuscrits de la Biblioteca Nacional de França, del 1962 al 1974. Ha estat professor de Paleografia a l'Institut d'Études Latines de la Sorbona i a la Universitat de París IV i professor de Paleografia i de Codicologia a l'École Nationale Supérieure des Sciencies de l'Information et des Bibliothèques. Des del 1974 ha estat directeur d'études de l'École Pratique des Hautes Études, secció de Ciències Històriques i Filològiques (Universitat de París-Sorbona) i, actualment, n'és emèrit. Ha estat també director de l'École des Bibliothécaires-Documentalistes de l'Institut Catholique de París des del 1985 fins al 1998. Cofundador i coresponsable de l'equip CNRS-EPHE (Étude des Pigments, Histoire et Archéologie), ha estat codirector de la col·lecció de les Chartae Latinae Antiquiores, Facsimile Edition of the Latin Charters prior to the Ninth Century, i cofundador i codirector de la col·lecció dels Monumenta palaeographica Medii Aevi. Autor de més de dues-centes publicacions, Jean Vezin és membre de prestigioses institucions acadèmiques i de comitès científics de caràcter nacional i internacional. Jean Vezin ha obtingut diferents guardons, entre els quals el premi Schlumberger de la Société Nationale des Antiquaires de França (1972), el premi de la Marquise de Maillé (1982), la primera medalla del Concours des Antiquités Nationales, de l'Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres (el 1977 i el 1990), i el premi La Fons Mélicocq de la mateixa Académie (1986). És commandeur de l'ordre des Palmes académiques i officier de l'ordre des Arts et des Lettres.Nomenament 01/02/2007, a proposta de Facultat de Filosofia i Lletres.

Paraphrastic Reformulations in Spoken Corpora

International audienceOur work addresses the automatic detection of paraphrastic reformulation in French spoken corpora. The proposed approach is syn-tagmatic. It is based on specific markers and the specificities of the spoken language. Manual multi-dimensional annotation performed by two annotators provides fine-grained reference data. An automatic method is proposed in order to decide whether sentences contain or not paraphras-tic relations. The obtained results show up to 66.4% precision. Analysis of the manual annotations indicates that few paraphrastic segments show morphological modifications (inflection, derivation or compounding) and that the syntactic equivalence between the segments is seldom respected, as these usually belong to different syntactic categories

Angular Dependences of Third Harmonic Generation from Microdroplets

We present experimental and theoretical results for the angular dependence of third harmonic generation (THG) of water droplets in the micrometer range (size parameter $62<ka<248$). The THG signal in $p$- and $s$-polarization obtained with ultrashort laser pulses is compared with a recently developed nonlinear extension of classical Mie theory including multipoles of order $l\leq250$. Both theory and experiment yield over a wide range of size parameters remarkably stable intensity maxima close to the forward and backward direction at ``magic angles''. In contrast to linear Mie scattering, both are of comparable intensity.Comment: 4 pages, RevTeX, 3 figures available on request from [email protected], submitted to PR

Human response to a frontal sled deceleration

IRCOBI Conference on the Biomechanics of Impact, MUNICH, ALLEMAGNE, 18-/09/2002 - 20/09/2002Sled tests were conducted with cadavers to obtain data on the behaviour of the human body under frontal deceleration. Two series of three tests were conducted corresponding to two levels of severity and types of restraint systems. The restraint systems used for the tests included a 4kN force-limited shoulder belt and a static lap belt. A driver airbag was mounted for the series at highest severity. The results show that the restraint systems and the test conditions modify the behaviour of the cadaver. The restrained conditions are not reflected in the same way for different segment of the body. The influence of the airbag is well observed for the chest spine behaviour, and not for the first thoracic vertebra. This study suggests that the chest acceleration (T8) could be a better predicting parameter than the Tl resultant in a combined parameters injury criterion

Claude Simon, Robert Rauschenberg « Quelque chose d'analogue... »

Dans La Fiction mot à mot (1972), Claude Simon, évoquant le grand tableau de Robert Rauschenberg Charlene (1954) - et l'importance que la « considération de [ses] propriétés » avait pu avoir dans la genèse d'Orion aveugle (1970) et du roman Les Corps conducteurs (1971) - déclare : « En plus du fait que Rauschenberg est américain, que j'ai pu voir (et photographier) à New York certaines boutiques, dans le Bowery ou ailleurs, dont les éléments (fragments de moulures, tôles rouillées ou papiers ..
