Beginnings

The First Testament

By: Thierry Guillemin

The language of emotions and symbols is, par excellence, that of poetry. Yet the Bible uses a language of symbols from nature or the history of Israel that call and respond in echo throughout its various books including those of the New Covenant. Beginnings uses poetry to bring out the interplay of symbols or the deeply human aspect of emotions present in texts of the First Testament; it explores also different human experiences. Therefore, it does not in itself require any particular knowledge of the Scriptures to be appreciated. However, as this knowledge can help with grasping the poems in all their dimensions, some notes may support the reader to do so. The texts were first written in French, and it seemed useful to put the original text in front of the translation, as the play of rhythms and sonorities often could not be rendered in the latter. However, the entanglement of symbolic games and the deep description of emotions that poetic language allows is fully kept in the English text, and thus all readers can appreciate the poems, letting the words penetrate them by the magic of poetry.

The New Covenant

By: Thierry Guillemin

The New Testament is crossed by an incredible narrative tension. The poetic language allows this tension to be highlighted: it paints the features of an epic of salvation through plays of images, symbols, and emotions, and gives the texts a new intensity. While this collection does not require any preliminary biblical knowledge, the latter will help to grasp its full meaning. The reader can choose a systematic reading from the beginning or go directly to the heart of the collection by reading the poems concerning the passion and resurrection, starting from “Gethsemane.” They will then understand what reading the book can bring them. As with the collection Beginnings, which precedes it, the poems are given in the original language they were first written (French) and in their translation into English. The people who can read French will be able to appreciate the musicality inherent in their composition. The English reader will be able to appreciate the general aesthetics of the images and the description of the emotions faithfully rendered by the translation.

The Geometrical Study of Differential Equations

NSF-CBMS Conference on the Geometrical Study of Differential Equations, June 20-25, 2000, Howard University, Washington

By: Joshua Allensworth Leslie,Thierry P. Robart

This volume contains papers based on some of the talks given at the NSF-CBMS conference on ``The Geometrical Study of Differential Equations'' held at Howard University (Washington, DC). The collected papers present important recent developments in this area, including the treatment of nontransversal group actions in the theory of group invariant solutions of PDEs, a method for obtaining discrete symmetries of differential equations, the establishment of a group-invariant version of the variational complex based on a general moving frame construction, the introduction of a new variational complex for the calculus of difference equations and an original structural investigation of Lie-Backlund transformations. The book opens with a modern and illuminating overview of Lie's line-sphere correspondence and concludes with several interesting open problems arising from symmetry analysis of PDEs. It offers a rich source of inspiration for new or established researchers in the field. This book can serve nicely as a companion volume to a forthcoming book written by the principle speaker at the conference, Professor Niky Kamran, to be published in the AMS series, CBMS Regional Conference Series in Mathematics.
