Sommario/riassunto

This is a book about computer programming for everyone: artist, poet, student, doctor, accountant, or engineer. It assumes you know very little or nothing about how computers work. This book will show you how to write understandable computer programs in Java, a programming language widely used on the Internet. Why should we be interested in learning computer programming? Even though most readers will not wish to become professional programmers, programming is fun and useful. You will enjoy learning a new skill and becoming good at it. And, in today's world it is important for professionals in any field to appreciate what computers can (and cannot) do well. To reach this level of understanding, you must go beyond the routine skills of a computer user and learn the art of programming in some depth. While emphasizing general principles of programming this book: * Uses examples from the humanities only, requiring no math or engineering knowledge * Explains all programming concepts by means of complete programs * Concentrates on exercises solved by writing complete programs * Takes the reader from text input/output to object-oriented programming in the equivalent of a one semester class. * Gives the reader a solid background for follow-on courses on the graphics and networking facilities of Java. This book is a sound and complete introduction to programming and not just another Java reference book for those who already know how to program. Although the book uses Java, the same methods can be used for systematic programming in other languages, such as C, Fortran, and Pascal. The book makes a splendid text for a one semester course on beginning programming and for such a course there are teaching aids available at the author's website. Professor Per Brinch Hansen, is one of the leading pioneers in computer programming, and his insight and experience make learning proper computer programming in Java fun and easy for everyone.

Sommario/riassunto

The author analyses computer chat as a form of communication. While some forms of computer-mediated communication (CMC) deviate only marginally from traditional writing, computer chat is popularly considered to be written conversation and the most “oral” form of written CMC. This book systematically explores the varying degrees of conversationality (“orality”) in CMC, focusing in particular on a corpus of computer chat (synchronous and supersynchronous CMC) compiled by the author. The book employs Douglas Biber’s multidimensional methodology and situates the chats relative to a range of spoken and written genres on his dimensions of linguistic variation. The study fills a gap both in CMC linguistics as regards a systematic variationist approach to computer chat genres, and in variationist linguistics as regards a description of conversational writing.

Sommario/riassunto

On ne lit plus guère Alphonse Gratry et c’est dommage, non seulement parce qu’il fut l’un des penseurs religieux les plus marquants du xixe siècle, mais aussi parce qu’il était un écrivain de talent et un témoin averti de son temps. Issu d’un milieu anticlérical de serviteurs de l’Empire napoléonien, converti au catholicisme sous la Restauration, polytechnicien, directeur du collège Stanislas à Paris, puis aumônier de l’École normale supérieure, il a contribué, en 1852, à refonder l’Oratoire de France. Catholique inclassable, pionnier du dialogue œcuménique, militant de la paix, il était persuadé que l’Église de son temps vivait un « moment solennel » de son histoire, comparable en importance à celui de ses origines, duquel dépendrait en grande partie son avenir dans les sociétés occidentales. Philosophe, il est à l’origine du système de pensée le plus complet et le plus caractérisé que le monde catholique français ait produit au xixe siècle, qui a influencé tout une lignée de penseurs indépendants du thomisme. La fin de son existence a cependant été très assombrie par les conséquences de ses prises de position retentissantes contre l’infaillibilité pontificale en 1870, même si son ralliement in extremis au dogme lui a permis d’



échapper à une damnatio memoriae qui aurait pu être définitive, mais qui n’a finalement été que provisoire. Le but de cet ouvrage est de faire redécouvrir cette figure majeure de l’histoire religieuse et intellectuelle du xixe siècle, à travers un essai biographique, la première édition critique et intégrale de ses souvenirs et une anthologie de textes représentatifs de la diversité des thèmes de sa pensée comme des formes de son écriture.
