Excerpt: Robert Lee Frost (March 26, 1874 January 29, 1963) was an American poet. He is highly regarded for his realistic depictions of rural life and his command of American colloquial speech. His work frequently employed settings from rural life in New England in the early twentieth century, using them to examine complex social and philosophical themes. A popular and often-quoted poet, Frost was honored frequently during his lifetime, receiving four Pulitzer Prizes for Poetry.

Extrait : Barbara McClintock (16 juin 1902 - 2 septembre 1992) est une scientifique américaine, considérée comme l'une des plus éminentes cytogénéticiennes du monde. Elle soutint en 1927 une thèse de doctorat en botanique à l'Université Cornell où elle avait mené des recherches pointues sur la cytogénétique du maïs, qui restera d'ailleurs son domaine de prédilection durant toute sa carrière. À la fin des années 1920, elle étudia les chromosomes et leurs modifications pendant la reproduction chez le maïs. Son travail et ses résultats furent étonnants et très en avance sur l'époque : elle développa des techniques pour observer les chromosomes du maïs et utilisa des analyses faites au microscope pour démontrer nombre de théories génétiques fondamentales, dont celle concernant l'échange d'information génétique par les chromosomes par enjambement durant la méiose. Elle produisit la première carte génétique du maïs, reliant les régions chromosomiques avec des traits physiques et démontra le rôle du télomère et du centromère, deux régions des chromosomes importantes dans la conservation de l'information génétique. Elle a été reconnue comme une des meilleures de son domaine, gagnant de prestigieux prix et étant élue à la National Academy of Sciences en 1944. Elle reçut le prix Nobel de médecine en 19...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

Extrait : Adolf Hitler, né le 20 avril 1889 à Braunau am Inn en Autriche (alors en Autriche-Hongrie) et mort par suicide le 30 avril 1945 à Berlin, est un homme politique allemand, fondateur et figure centrale du nazisme, instaurateur de la dictature totalitaire désignée sous le nom de Troisième Reich. Porté à la tête de l'Allemagne par le Parti national-socialiste des travailleurs allemands (NSDAP) qu'il reprit en 1921, il devient chancelier du Reich le 30 janvier 1933, puis se fait plébisciter en 1934 comme président, titre qu'il délaissa pour celui de Führer (« guide »). Sa politique expansionniste fut à l'origine du volet européen de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, pendant lequel il fit perpétrer de très nombreux crimes contre l'humanité, dont la Shoah reste le plus marquant. À la postérité, l'ampleur sans précédent des destructions, des pillages et des crimes de masse dont il fut le responsable, tout comme le racisme radical singularisant sa doctrine et l'inhumanité exceptionnelle des traitements infligés à ses victimes, lui ont valu d'être considéré de manière particulièrement négative par l'historiographie, par la mémoire collective e...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ...
