Electronic Resources for Classicists It's been more than 20 years since Electronic Resources first appeared. The web was still in its infancy and the gopher was the state of the art in technology. The first version of this survey was published in the February 1994 issue of the New England Classical Journal. [NECJ XXI.3 (1993-94) 117-21]. One year later the number of web sites and internet resources had grown so much that a revision of the list was necessary. The second survey was published in the February 1995 issue of the same journal (NECJ XXII.3 (February 1995). In the summer of 1995 the survey was converted to HTML with links to the various resources and made available online.

The American Presidency Project Les génocides et crimes de masse depuis la fin du XIXe siècle Les génocides et crimes de masse restent difficiles à étudier et définir, tout en étant au centre d'enjeux mémoriels et politiques qui complexifient la tâche de l'historien. Cet entretien a été publié pour la première fois en 2019. La compréhension des génocides des Herero et Nama, des Arméniens, des Juifs et des Tutsi, ainsi que des crimes de masse, est nécessaire à la prévention de nouveaux cas de violence extrême bien que cela paraisse parfois utopique. Nonfiction.fr : En tant qu’inspecteur général de l’éducation nationale, que représente pour vous la Documentation photographique et sa reprise par CNRS Éditions ? En tant qu’inspecteur général, je constatais aussi la place singulière de la « Doc Photo » dans les classes, autant auprès des professeurs pour le secondaire que pour les étudiants du premier cycle universitaire et des classes préparatoires. À partir de deux exemples concrets, pourriez-vous expliquer ce qui définit ou non un génocide ? Sur Nonfiction :

Dangers of Mining in the Black Country - Black Country Living Museum Please note that some images/videos used to make this video depict mines outside of the Black Country for illustrative purposes. The UK has a rich history of mining, but no industry quite exploded like coal mining in the Black Country during the industrial revolution. It completely changed the landscape. It wasn’t long before the Black Country, with its wealth of easily accessible coal, was turned “inside out”. But what kind of impact did this have on the people living there? And was it safe?

British Women's Emancipation since the Renaissance Encyclopædia Iranica | Home Immigration & Migration - Research and data from the Pew Research Center Recent monthly migrant encounter totals far exceed the peak reached during the last major wave at the U.S.-Mexico border in May 2019. Across 49 focus groups with Asian immigrants, daily challenges related to speaking English emerged as a common theme. Participants also shared frustration, stress and at times sadness in dealing with cultural and language barriers, and described support they received from others. The number of international migrants grew to 281 million in 2020; 3.6% of the world’s people lived outside their country of birth that year. An estimated 940,000 immigrants became U.S. citizens during the 2022 fiscal year. Immigrants who qualify for TPS are living in the U.S. and come from designated nations deemed unsafe to return to. Abortion has risen as an election issue for Latinos, with a majority saying it should be legal in all or most cases. Here are some key facts about the nation’s Latino population by geography, and by characteristics like language use and origin group.

Penser les génocides, d'un continent à l'autre Ce nouveau numéro de la Documentation photographique livre une approche globale des phénomènes génocidaires. « Commis en cent jours au vu et au su du monde entier, le génocide des Tutsi du Rwanda interroge sur l’usage des savoirs, sur l’échec de la connaissance, sur la faillite des organisations internationales » . Par ce constat sans concession, Vincent Duclert montre que malgré tous les travaux existant sur les différents génocides, nos sociétés demeurent incapables d’empêcher ou de stopper des violences similaires. Pour leur reprise de la Documentation photographique, CNRS Éditions ont confié à l’historien de l’EHESS leur premier numéro. Créer, attiser la haine de l’Autre Ces génocides n’ont pas été perpétrés au hasard dans le cadre de guerres totales. Commettre le génocide La mise en œuvre de l’extermination profita soit du contexte des guerres mondiales, soit de la répression d’une rébellion dans le cas des Hereros et Namas. Occulter, nier le génocide Définir et anticiper

Famous People of World War Two Influential people who caused, influenced and fought during the Second World War. Adolf Hitler (1889 – 1945) Dictator of Nazi Germany from 1933-45. During the 1930s, Hitler sought to gain ‘lebensraum’ for Germany – claiming Austria, Czechoslovakia and finally invading Poland. Hitler’s initial success encouraged him to invade Russia, which ultimately would over-stretch his war-machine.

Winston Churchill (1874 – 1965) – Churchill was elected Prime Minister of the UK in May 1940, when Britain and her Empire stood alone against Hitler. Franklin D.

Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Pleiades - Ancient Places 4 | 2009 Les « religions orientales » dans le monde grec et romain La catégorie des "religions orientales" appartient au contexte épistémologique et culturel du début du XXe siècle. Aujourd'hui, l'étude de la diffusion des cultes étrangers et de leur insertion dans le tissu cultuel grec et romain doit plutôt se faire en termes d'intégration et d'interaction, en rapport avec la question des identités culturelles et religieuses dans un monde multiethnique et multiculturel. Le regard se porte sur divers niveaux de pénétration et de visibilité de ces cultes, sur diverses stratégies d'appropriation, ainsi que sur les deux directions des échanges culturels – d'Est en Ouest, et d'Ouest en Est. Ce numéro a été réalisé avec le soutien de l'Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR), de la Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), de la DGLFLF ainsi que de la DVA-Stiftung. Der Begriff der "orientalischen Religionen" entstammt dem kulturellen Milieu und dem Erkenntnisinteresse der Wende vom 19. zum 20. Jahrhundert.
