This article suggests a new interpretation of the Feuillant group during the French Revolution. In particular, it focuses on the approach of Feuillant leaders Antoine Barnave, Adrien Duport and Alexandre Lameth to the movement in favour of war in 1791–92. Using dossiers newly found in the Archives Nationales, the study challenges the popular belief that the Jacobin group was responsible for the move towards war. On the contrary, this article shows that the war movement was launched and exploited by all moderate groups for reasons of domestic politics. Through it, the Feuillants hoped to reinforce and legitimate the monarchy in the political struggle to contain the Revolution. But the evolution of events largely overtook the moderates, who were crushed by the process they had set in motion. The study of this political struggle is a chance to reflect historiographically on Furet’s suggestion of revolutionary dérapage, and to consider the question of what freedom historical actors enjoyed within the revolutionary process.
Conservation of carnivores in an increasingly changing environment is greatly helped by understanding the decision-making processes underlying habitat patch choice. Foraging theory may give us insight into spatio-temporal search patterns and consequent foraging decisions that carnivores make in h...
Ontology languages such as OWL are being widely used as the Semantic Web movement gains momentum. With the proliferation of the Semantic Web, more and more large-scale ontologies are being developed in real-world applications to represent and integrate knowledge and data. There is an increasing n...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate longitudinal changes of the swallowing process in stroke patients with aspiration using kinematic analysis. Twenty-eight subacute stroke patients with aspiration on fluid at initial videofluoroscopic swallowing studies (VFSS) were included. Follow-up VFSS...
This dose-response study aimed to determine the optimal dose of remifentanil combined with propofol 2.5 mg·kg-1iv in order to achieve excellent conditions for laryngeal mask airway (LMA(TM)) insertion in 95% of adult female patients. Methods Sixty-eight adult premedicated female patients, Amer...
Contemporary discussions of art and technology continue to work on the assumption that making entails the imposition of form upon the material world, by an agent with a design in mind. Against this hylomorphic model of creation, I argue that the forms of things arise within fields of force and fl...
The most effective way to silence criticism is a justification on the very terms of the likely critique. When an action is rationally justified, how can reason deny its legitimacy? This paper concerns critical strategies that have been employed for addressing the resistance of rationality to rati...
The cerebellum has traditionally been viewed as a brain structure subserving skilled motor behaviors. However, the cerebellum might be involved not only in movement coordination, but also in action observation and understanding of others’ actions. Veridical visual perception of human body m...
Stable isotope analysis (SIA) has emerged as a common tool in ecology and has proven especially useful in the study of animal diet, habitat use, movement, and physiology. SIA has been vigorously applied to the study of marine mammals, because most species live in habitats or undergo large migrati...
