In 1993, [Margaret] Rossiter coined the phrase "the Matilda effect" about women who did not receive credit for their scientific inventions. The origin of the term was Matilda Gage, a suffragist, abolitionist, and Native American rights activist whose work was denied credit when she left the mainstream, conservative women's movement to form a radical suffrage organization. 2, record 3, English, - Matilda%20effect

Le brutalisme des Smithson, très influencé par l'esthétique de Mies van der Rohe, c'est-à-dire l'exhibition la plus franche possible de la structure de l'édifice, dépasse cependant celle-ci par ses solutions techniques plus «brutales», par exemple par des canalisations visibles; il n'est pas éloigné non plus du concept structural et spatial qui en 1953 avait régi la construction par l'Américain Louis Kahn du bâtiment de l'Art Center de l'université Yale à New Haven (Connecticut, États-Unis). Il impose moins un nouveau style d'architecture qu'une nouvelle manière de résoudre les problèmes actuels de construction. Pour de nombreux critiques et architectes, le brutalisme en tant que style est né en 1956 au moment où Le Corbusier achevait les maisons Jaoul à Neuilly. Ces petits immeubles de gros béton armé et de brique devinrent en effet la principale source d'inspiration d'un courant brutaliste dont l'Anglais James Frazer Stirling fut considéré comme le chef de file (ensemble résidentiel de Ham Common, Londres, 1958). 3, record 5, French, - brutalisme

The Panhellenic Socialist Movement(PASOK) is the descendant of the Panhellenic Resistance Movement(PAK), which worked for the overthrow of the colonels’ dictatorship(1967-74). It was basically a political movement but did not eschew violence. During the course of the 1980s and 1990s PASOK evolved from a radical, class-based socialist movement into a mainstream European social-democratic party. Under its current leader and prime minister, Costas Simitis, it has fully embraced deeper integration with the EU. 1, record 6, English, - Panhellenic%20Socialist%20Movement
