Das 'Musée des Monuments Français' ging 1793 aus der Revolution hervor. Das ehemalige Kloster, in dem enteignete Kirchengüter gelagert wurden, mutierte unter Alexandre Lenoir zu einer chronologisch geordneten Ruhmesstätte der französischen Geschichte. Grabmäler und Monumente erinnern an verschiedene Personen dieser Geschichte – von Héloïse über viele Könige bis hin zu Descartes. Allerdings war das 'Musée des Monuments Français' weniger ein Ort des royalen Totenkults als vielmehr ein Museum, in dem auch die königlichen Grabmäler als Exponate innerhalb der Präsentation der französischen Geschichte fungierten. Daher führte es unter Zeitgenossen zu einer Polarisierung in Anhänger und Gegner: So waren zum Beispiel Michelet und Wilhelm von Humboldt vom 'Musée des Monuments Français' begeistert, während Chateaubriand es strikt ablehnte. Im 'Musée des Monuments Français’ waren die Grabstätten und Skulpturen permanente Zeugnisse der Niederlage des Königtums. In der Restauration wurde das Museum Ende 1816 geschlossen, die königlichen Grabmäler wurden zurück in die Kirche von Saint Denis überführt.

Science is responding in manifold ways to current climate change. What are the perquisites for response, and how can we structure the response? By studying the historical climatic event “Year without a Summer” of 1816 and by relating to Fleck’s theory of genesis and development of a scientific fact, we posit that responding refers to making interlinkages between different notions of climatic change.

In recent decades, extremely hazardous windstorms have caused enormous losses to buildings, infrastructure and forests in Switzerland. This has increased societal and scientific interest in the intensity and frequency of historical high-impact storms. However, high-resolution wind data and damage statistics mostly span recent decades only. For this study, we collected quantitative (e.g., volumes of windfall timber, losses relating to buildings) and descriptive (e.g., forestry or insurance reports) information on the impact of historical windstorms. To define windstorm severity, normalized and declustered quantitative data were processed by extreme value statistics. Descriptive information was classified using a conceptual guideline. Validation with independent damage information, as well as comparison with wind measurements and a reanalysis, indicates that the most hazardous winter storms are captured, while too few moderate windstorms are detected. Strong storms in the wind measurements and reanalysis are thus added to the catalog. The final catalog encompasses approximately 240 high-impact windstorms in Switzerland since 1859. It features three robust severity classes and contains eight extreme windstorms. Evidence of high winter storm activity in the early and late 20th century compared to the mid-20th century in both damage and wind data indicates a co-variability of hazard and related damage on decadal timescales.
