Sommario/riassunto

Les dix auteurs réunis dans ce volume, à l'occasion de la sixième rencontre de l’école doctorale d’archéologie, se sont intéressés au thème : « Des vestiges aux sociétés. Regards croisés sur le passage des données archéologiques à la société sous-jacente ». Les contributions présentées ici, couvrent des domaines géographiques, chronologiques et thématiques larges, exprimant en partie la substance complexe et subtile de cette vaste problématique. Les auteurs mettent en regard les pratiques archéologiques et celles des populations en question. Leurs approches se rejoignent sur la valeur du regard critique porté sur les postures de l’archéologue face aux faits empiriques. Les auteurs nous révèlent l’entière nécessité du travail de questionnement des outils méthodologiques pour faire parler justement les vestiges. L’ensemble des contributions montre que l’égal intérêt pour le connu et l’inconnu, le producteur et le destinataire, le corpus étudié et le corpus comparatif, l’intérieur et l’extérieur est le fondement d’une archéologie dynamique plus à même de rendre compte des interactions sociales.

Sommario/riassunto

The third edition of Van Kampen's standard work has been revised and updated. The main difference with the second edition is that the contrived application of the quantum master equation in section 6 of chapter XVII has been replaced with a satisfactory treatment of quantum fluctuations. Apart from that throughout the text corrections have been made and a number of references to later developments have been included. From the recent textbooks the following are the most relevant. C.W.Gardiner, Quantum Optics (Springer, Berlin 1991)D.T. Gillespie, Markov Processes (Academic Press, Sa
