Bohemia

Henri Murger

Phraseologism: Bohemia.

Meaning: The way of life of people of art, whose way of life and behavior does not fit into the framework of the usual ideas.

Origin: From French: la boheme. The expression became popular after the publication of "Scenes from the Life of Bohemia" by the French writer Henri Murger (1822-1861). The word "bohemia" is derived from another French word - un bohemien, that is, "gypsies" (usually associated with the image of a wandering singer, musician, etc.), and, accordingly, meant a disordered life, an unsettled life - "like a gypsy." In Russian, this concept first appeared in 1895 thanks to the writer Pyotr Boborykin (who introduced the word "intelligentsia" into the language). The first Russian translation of "Scenes from the Life of Bohemia" appeared (1913), when this expression itself was already in wide use in Russia.

Origin:

For the first time, the expression appeared in the New Year's speech of the Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR K. E. Voroshilov ("Pravda", January 1, 1954).

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue.

Mercedes will make trucks more economical 03.06.2012

Today, there are many technologies that allow saving fuel in passenger cars, and more and more hybrid models and "clean" electric vehicles are entering the market. But with trucks, the situation is much more complicated, although they consume fuel much more actively. The solution to the problem was presented by the German automaker Mercedes, the new trucks of the Actros series will be supplied with a system that predicts the traffic situation along the way and optimizes fuel consumption.

The intelligent system is called Predictive Power Control, it uses data obtained from GPS, as well as information from maps, and analyzes in advance the route that the car will follow, studying the topography of the road. Based on this data, the system creates a motion program, calculates the optimal speed and engine operation mode. Thanks to this, Predictive Power Control "intervenes" in the process of controlling the machine from time to time, adjusting the speed of its movement, the intensity of braking in various areas, and even switching the necessary gears. Of course, it is hard to believe that such an intervention can be absolutely safe, but, according to the developer, all these measures do not affect the behavior of the car on the road at all, the only noticeable effect is fuel economy.
