Paris 1947 : The woman of fashion

Paris 1947 is the site of one of twentieth century fashion’s fictive highpoints. The New Look combined drama and poetics through an abiding rhetoric of elegance. In doing so it employed traditional modes of femininity, casting the woman of fashion in the guise of an ambiguous ‘new’ figure: half fairytale princess, half evil witch. This fashionable ideal was widely disseminated through key photographic representations, Willy Maywald’s 1947 image of the Bar Suit being a case in point. It was precisely such mythic formulations of ‘woman’ which Simone de Beauvoir was to take to task just two years later with the publication of The Second Sex. Driven by frustration with the status quo of real women, de Beauvoir recognised the role of fictive representations, both textual and visual in defining women. This paper reads key sections of The Second Sex through a comparative analysis of two iconic images of French women from 1947; Cartier-Bresson’s classic portrait of de Beauvoir and Willy Mayhold’s spectacular evocation of Christian Dior’s New Look. Cued by a compelling range of similarities between these images this paper explores links between fashion, feminism and fiction in mid-century French culture.

Early in 1943 the Barosins were arrested and sent to the deportation camp in Gurs. They were freed by French authorities and went into hiding until their liberation in 1944 in Paris. In 1947 they emigrated to the United States.

对裂纹扩展规律Paris公式物理本质的探讨

首先讨论了著名力学家K.Krausz和A.S.Krausz关于Paris公式物理本质研究的成果，从材料的微观结构和裂纹尖端的应力场出发，应用位错动力学理论，热激活能理论和速率过程理论对疲劳裂纹扩展规律进行了微观到宏观的探讨。最终推导出疲劳裂纹扩展速率的一个解析表示式，该式严格地定了Paris公式的两个试验常数，赋予了Paris公式明确的物理意义，从而真实地揭示了Paris公式的物理本质，为这一经验的普遍规律奠定了理论基础。
