Sommario/riassunto

L’œuvre d’Henri Queffélec occupe une place à part dans la littérature de l’après-guerre. À une époque où l’humanisme paraît démodé, où le récit traditionnel est remis en question, Queffélec continue à plaider pour un unanimisme chrétien et pour une littérature ancrée dans la réalité de sa région dont il évoque si bien l’imaginaire hanté par les signes de la mort. Romancier des îles bretonnes et de la mer, observateur des mutations de son temps, il peint les catastrophes provoquées par les violences de la nature, les drames et les conflits liés aux transformations sociales. Toute cette œuvre violente et déchirée ne cesse pourtant de rêver, de nous faire rêver d'harmonie, de solidarité. Queffélec a cultivé le catholicisme social et a eu des sympathies de plus en plus marquées pour le franciscanisme. Pour lui la religion est lien entre les hommes ; elle suscite des enthousiasmes, fait vivre des communautés. Le romancier joue sur les techniques narratives, sur les points de vue, pour animer des groupes et créer une vie collective. L’écrivain accomplit alors une mission presque sacerdotale en réconciliant l’homme et le monde.

Sommario/riassunto

This book brings together archeologists, historians, psychologists, and educators from different countries and academic traditions to address the many ways that we tell children about the (distant) past. Knowing the past is fundamentally important for human societies, as well as for individual development. The authors expose many unquestioned assumptions and preformed images in narratives of the past that are routinely presented to children. The contributors both examine the ways in which children come to grips with the past and critically assess the many ways in which contemporary societies and an increasing number of commercial agents construct and use the past.

Sommario/riassunto

This volume constitutes the post-conference proceedings of the First European Workshop on Biometrics and Identity Management, BIOID 2008, held in Roskilde, Denmark, during May 7-9, 2008. The 23 regular papers presented were carefully selected from numerous submissions. They cover the following topics: biometric data quality; biometrical templates - face recognition; biometrical templates -- other modalities; biometric attacks and countermeasures; biometric interfaces, and standards and privacy. These papers are presented together with 4 position papers by invited speakers on biometrics and identity management.
