1915 — Les principes de Moliere sur I'education des femmes.Résumé
Personne n'ignore les services inestimables rendus par Molière à la Comédie. Avant lui, les dramaturges se croyaient obligés de traiter de "grands sujets".(1) Le public d'ailleurs, voulait une intrigue forte et des personnages extraordinaires. Par la puissance de son génie créateur, Molière a su opposer au système dramatique de ses prédécesseurs, une peinture fidèle de la vie de tous les jours. Se moquant des theoriciens, et laissant de côté les conventions acceptées par ses contemporains, il proclama hautement que la grande règle au théâtre, est de plaire. [...] Lire la suite

1915 — The elementary theory of sets of points, with an introductory essay on irrational numbers.Résumé
It is quite generally known that arithmetic had its beginning in the counting of groups of things, such as trees and herds of cattle; but it is not nearly so widely understood why the number ten should have been chosen as the basal unit of our initial system of enumeration, the decimal system, rather than any other number. When one considers that counting would naturally take the form of telling off the objects of a group on the fingers of both hands, it is easy to understand how the positive whole numbers were constructed on the decimal system.

The science of geology evolved from the study of cosmogony, while cosmogony, which in the very early days was studied as a matter of speculation in the light of philosophy, originated in mythology. According to the mythology of the ancient Egyptians, It was Muduk who, assisted by his gods and the winds, created the heavens and the earth out of the bodyof Tiamat whom he had vanquished. The old Greeks believed the Olympian gods were the makers of the universe; whereas the Hebrews maintained that it was the Personal God who createdthe universe. [...] Lire la suite
