Kandinsky’s canvas Composition V (cf. Figure 1) for their next exhibition, because it was too big. Kandinsky and Marc immediately decided to leave the group, followed by Münter, Kubin, Le Fauconnier and von Hartmann. Marc would write to his brother “The editors of the Blaue Reiter will now be the starting point for new exhibitions… We will try to become the center of the modern movement”. This quotation told us that the Blaue Reiter project was already being built while the artists were still members of

his doctoral students, one of the essential parts of his responsibilities as a university professor. That Korteweg and De Vries were of flesh and blood will become apparent from their biographies to be presented below, which make Received by the editors October 27, 2007. 1 2 BASTIAAN WILLINK the remarkable events surrounding De Vries’ doctoral research (promotie) more understandable.

Address Unknown in 1935, then spent three years trying to get the piece published. Along the way it was rejected by the likes of Esquire, Harper’s, and Atlantic magazines before it found a home in the November 1938 issue of Story Magazine. The editors of Story Magazine, however, deemed the story “too strong to appear under the name of a woman,” and assigned Kathrine the masculine pseudonym of Kressmann Taylor, which she used professionally for the rest of her life.

with all of the topics of psychology in a common framework. Use of a common network approach to psychological science may allow a foundation for predicting and understanding human behavior in its varied forms. We appreciate the invitation of the editors of the Annual Review of Psychology to submit a prefatory essay to this year’s volume. We have taken the opportunity to propose a unified basis for psychological science based upon an effort to combine experimental and differential approaches to the

Whenever it has been possible each volume has been adorned with a portrait of the author at the time he wrote his book.

Nous pouvons imaginer le héros sous sa forme la plus courante : avec une cape sur le dos et un masque... Mais cette notion ne s'arrête pas là, l'héroïsme est relié à de nombreux thèmes.

En effet, le mot « crise » en mandarin est composé de deux idéogrammes signifiant « danger » et « opportunité de changement ».
