BIOGRAPHIE DE SIMON GOULART
Simon Goulart, né à Senlis le 20 octobre 1543 et mort à Genève le 3 février 1628, est un théologien calviniste et un humaniste français.
Goulart étudie le droit à Paris. Ayant embrassé la religion réformée, il se réfugie, en mars 1566, à Genève, où il est reçu ministre du culte. En 1570, il épouse Suzanne Picot, puis il est admis gratuitement à la bourgeoisie de Genève. En 1589, il est aumônier des troupes genevoises pendant la guerre contre la Savoie.
En 1595, il prêche contre Henri IV. Il succède à Théodore de Bèze à la charge de modérateur de la Compagnie des pasteurs, de 1607 à 1612.
En 1602, lors de l’Escalade, il est pasteur du temple de Saint-Gervais, quartier situé sur la rive droite de Genève. Ayant exhorté les habitants de ce quartier-ci à prêter main-forte à leurs voisins d'en-face, il restera lui sur la rive droite pour soutenir par la prière la défense de la cité. En 1603, il rédige le Vray discours de la miraculeuse délivrance envoyée de Dieu à la ville de Genève, le 12 jour de décembre 1602, récit de l'attaque savoyarde.
Cet humaniste traduit Plutarque et Xénophon. Il rédige un Trésor d'histoires admirables et mémorables de notre temps (Genève, 1620), des Mémoires historiques sur la Ligue.
En 1580, il traduit l’Histoire de Portugal d’Osorius et de Fernão Lopes de Castanheda. L’épître dédicatoire à Nicolas Pithou commence ainsi :
« MONSIEUR, Je pense bien que ceux qui nous conoissent trouveront estrange et mal seant de prime face, que j’aye mis la main à ceste histoire, pour la communiquer à nostre nation : et qu’ayant esté dédiée par Osorius à un Prince, je la vous presente maintenant. Quant à ce premier point, je ne nie pas que durant le temps employé à ce labeur je pouvoy vacquer à choses plus serieuses, mieux convenantes à mes estudes, et plus propres à ma vocation. »
L'ouvrage a été écrit au « bourg de Sainct Gervais, le vingtiesme jour d’Octobre M.D.LXXX. » Depuis 1571, en effet, il est installé dans cette paroisse de Saint-Gervais, à Genève.
En 1581, il donne un Commentaire alphabétique (Indice) de la Sepmaine de Guillaume du Bartas qui est publié dans une édition augmentée du poète gascon. En 1589, chez le même éditeur (Jacques Chouet, Genève), il publie à nouveau ce commentaire, enrichi de remarques supplémentaires. De son côté, le catholique Pantaléon Thévenin commente lui aussi ce vaste poète encyclopédique.
De 1576 à 1597, il édite des chansons spirituelles et des psaumes de divers compositeurs chez divers imprimeurs de Lyon, Heidelberg ou Genève. Les chansons sont des chansons profanes dont le texte a été contrefait, c'est-à-dire remplacé par un texte spirituel plus à même d'être chanté dans les maisons calvinistes, et le principal compositeur mis à profit sera Orlande de Lassus. Ce faisant, il adopte la même démarche que Jean Pasquier, dont les éditions l'ont précédé à La Rochelle. Ces éditions contrefaites se font sans autorisation du compositeur, en dépit des privilèges accordés à Roland de Lassus par les rois de France, ceux-ci ne s'appliquant pas à Genève.
Goulart annote aussi le Grand Miroir du Monde du poète protestant Joseph Duchesne sieur de la Violette (1593). Goulart est également l'auteur d'Imitations chrestiennes. Selon Olivier Pot, Goulart envisageait l'existence d'une Académie littéraire protestante.

Mahakala omnogovae
Tumblr media
By Ripley Cook
Etymology: Named for Mahakala, one of the eight protector deities of Tibetan Buddhism
First Described By: Turner et al., 2007
Classification: Dinosauromorpha, Dinosauriformes, Dracohors, Dinosauria, Saurischia, Eusaurischia, Theropoda, Neotheropoda, Averostra, Tetanurae, Orionides, Avetheropoda, Coelurosauria, Tyrannoraptora, Maniraptoromorpha, Maniraptoriformes, Maniraptora, Pennaraptora, Paraves, Eumaniraptora, Dromaeosauridae, Halszkaraptorinae
Status: Extinct
Time and Place: 80 million years ago, in the Campanian of the Late Cretaceous
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Mahakala is known from the Tögrögiin Shiree of the Djadokhta Formation in Ömnögovi, Mongolia 
Tumblr media
Physical Description: Mahakala was a small raptor, about 70 centimeters in length, and it was very similar to the earliest members of the Eumaniraptoran group in general, sharing characteristics with other Eumaniraptorans like Troodontids and Avialans. Mahakala was also a Halszkaraptorine, a group of weird little raptors with a semiaquatic lifestyle. It is uncertain if Mahakala was semiaquatic, but it seems at least possible at this time. Like other raptors, it had a sickle claw on its second toe, and like Troodontids and Avialans, it had an extended third foot bone. It also had very short forelimbs compared to other raptors, but similar in size to those of Halszkaraptor. In Halszkaraptor, the forelimbs are adapted to form flippers, like that of a cormorant. While the wings of Mahakala aren’t quite to that extent, it’s possible that it was a transitional form, or had partly aquatically adapted forelimbs. As a raptor, Mahakala would have been covered in feathers, with wings on its arms and a tail fan on its tail.
Tumblr media
By Ashley Patch
Diet: If Mahakala was like its close relative Halszkaraptor and associated with the water found in its environment, it would have most likely been a piscivore.
Behavior: Mahakala probably spent most of its time in or near sources of water, which were a tad hard to come by in its very arid environment. As such, it probably didn’t move about much, but spent its time at the oases and temporary rivers to find food in the water. It probably also swam about in the water, using its wings and legs to help propel it forward. It would have been a secretive sort of animal, being surrounded by many kinds of predators and threats, and wouldn’t have strayed far from its home. Given its rarity, and the uncommon nature of its probable preferred habitat, Mahakala would have probably not lived in social groups. However, it most likely took care of its young in some form.
Ecosystem: The Djadochta Formation was an arid desert environment, with red sand and dirt for miles and very little water for Mahakala to associate with. That being said, there were a decent number of oases in the environment, and temporary rivers called arroyos that would pop up during the wet season. Thus, Mahakala would have been mostly associated with the oases. Because of the red coloration of the ground (giving this area today the name of the Flaming Cliffs), most of the animals in the area would have actually been quite red or reddish, in order to blend in. In the oasis areas where Mahakala would have been found, there were probably horsetails and other water plants, rather than the dry shrubs and arid foliage found elsewhere in the environment. The Tögrögiin environment was not as diverse as the later Ukhaa Tolgod, but was still filled with a variety of animals. Here there were mammals such as Zalambdalestes, Kryptobaatar, and Barunlestes; lizards like Cherminotus, Adamisaurus, Temujinia, Zapsosaurus, Mimeosaurus, Flaviagama, Gurvansaurus, Dzhadochtosaurus, and Isodontosaurus; and other small animals. As for other dinosaurs, there was the Ankylosaur Pinacosaurus, the ceratopsian Protoceratops, the alvarezsaur Parvicursor (and possibly Shuvuuia), the ornithomimosaur Aepyornithomimus, and the raptor Velociraptor. In short, this was an exceptionally fluffy land indeed!
Tumblr media
By Scott Reid
Other: It is interesting to note that Mahakala and Halszkaraptor not only are shown as closely related in phylogenetic analyses since the latter was described, but that Mahakala actually comes from the same, but earlier environment, as Halszkaraptor. It is entirely possible, therefore, that Mahakala is actually the ancestor of Halszkaraptor, with other members of this weird raptor group splitting off at around the same time as Mahakala began that transition. This is not directly found in studies yet, however, so take that hypothesis with a grain of salt. Regardless, Mahakala was a very basal raptor, and even though it lived late in the fossil record in the group - at a time when many later-derived forms were very common - it still had many similarities to the Troodontids and the Avialans in addition to the raptors.

Lionel Messi and FC Barcelona Oneshot
Anon requested a cute fic about Leo and the team (we all know they are one big family), so I decided on this scenario. I’m not sure if I am right about all the players still being there but I really want them to be so yeah, I hope you enjoy <3 
Leo goes to training for the first time after losing the world cup in Brazil. The team is there to support him. 
Leo’s late to training for the first time in his life.
When his car rolls into the parking space his usual spot is already occupied by Neymar’s shiny new Porsche. On other days Leo maybe would have been mad but right now he’s just too tired to feel anything. He parks a few meters down and continues sitting in his seat until the clock on his dashboard tells him he is now officially fifteen minutes late.
He should probably get out and apologize to Enrique but he doesn’t really want to. La Liga starts again next week and the first training session after a big tournament is always the hardest, especially after you’ve lost said big tournament.
Leo sighs deeply and finally opens the door of his car, slipping out into the warm morning. He gets his bag out of the trunk and then slowly makes his way towards the doors of the trainings center.  
His steps are heavy, his shoulder slumped forward. He’s so tired and the prospect of having to start playing soccer again makes him want to turn around and drive back home. Leo has always loved playing soccer, it was his escape, his second reality but now, after that world cup, he, for the first time in his life, feels like he wants to quit.
Leo’s in the corridor leading to their locker room by now. He checks his phone, another five minutes have passed, his teammates should be on the pitch by now. He slings his bag over his shoulder, pushes the door open with a heavy sigh and halts midway through, petrified.
The locker room is not empty like he originally suspected, no, it’s actually crowded. The whole team is there, all dressed in their gears but none of them look like they’re about to get up and join Enrique, who is probably already waiting for them, on the field. They’re waiting for him, all of them.
Something inside of Leo snaps and he tightens his grip around the strap of his bag. Those past few days he has spent the majority of his time sleeping and trying to forget what happened to him in Brazil. At some point he actually got it to stop hurting and now the memory is only a dull throbbing in the back of his skull, that Leo is trying to live with.
But having all of his teammates waiting for him, his friends and also his family, he suddenly starts hurting all over again.
“What are you all doing here?” He asks, wanting to sound angry but ending up sounding broken.
He doesn’t wait for any of them to answer and walks over to his bench, sitting down and letting his bag hit the ground with a thud.
“Are you not happy to see us?”
Geri’s deep voice is so familiar that it eases Leo’s irritation immediately. He bends down and unties his shoes, trying to breathe evenly and calm his racing heart.
“I am.” He says and as soon as those words leave his mouth he knows he’s not lying. “I’m very happy to see you.”
Gerard squats so he can look Leo in the eyes when he glances back up.
“We’re happy to see you too.” The Spaniard says, his face breaking out into one of those dumb grins. “We already thought our captain would miss the first training of the season. We want to kick ass but we can’t do that without you.”
Leo holds Gerard’s crystal blue eyes for a moment and slowly but surely the uneasy feeling that had been pooling in the pit of his stomach starts to fade away.
He’s about to open his mouth and say something along the lines of that he’s not sure if he would be able to lead Barcelona to victory this year but before he has the chance to get anything out, Neymar plops down next to him, almost sitting down on his lap.
He’s not wearing his gear but normal clothes instead, Leo can see the outlines of a corset through his thin t-shirt and suddenly he feels bad for not asking Ney how he was when he called him after the final. Leo had been too wrapped up in his own problems to realize that he was not the only one hurting.
“Ney.” He breathes and reaches up to affectionately brush a hand through his hair. “How are you, how’s your back?”
Neymar purrs and nuzzles against his hand a bit.
“I’m good, I’m good, still walking.” He says. “I made you mate.”
Leo looks down, surprise written all over his face and hears a low laugh rumble through his teams.
“Did you now?” He mumbles and takes the cup from Neymar, smiling gratefully.
He brings it to his lips, takes a long sip and sighs when the familiar taste spreads through his mouth.
“Everytime we tried talking to you, you said you were tired.” Neymar babbles on. “So we decided to make you mate.”
“We?”
“Luis helped. He knows the way you like it best.”
Leo’s eyes search for Luis and find him standing next to Geri.
“You always get grumpy when you don’t drink mate.” He comments and walks over to where Leo is sitting, wrapping an arm around his shoulder. “How are you doing?”
“I’m good.” The Argentinian says and drinks again.
He can feel his body slowly coming back to life, his mind clearing, his tiredness fading. He’s amazed how easily his teammates can make him feel better, lifting a weight of his shoulder that had been crushing him since the final whistle blew in the Maracanã stadium. It’s then that Leo realizes that they know how he’s feeling. Neymar, Luis, Geri, Dani and Masche, who had suffered alongside him. He’s not alone in this and somehow that makes everything so much better.
“That’s a lie. That you’re good, I mean.” Geri chirps playfully. “But that’s okay; we will nurse you back to being confident.”
He ruffles Leo’s hair gently and then the smaller man gets up and wraps his arms around Geri’s giant frame. They hug tightly and when Leo mumbles a soft “thank you” into the giant’s chest, Geri pats his head awkwardly.
“There, there.” He says before separating Leo from him again. “You will be okay, go hug Ney now, he has been longing to hug you since he got injured.”
Leo doesn’t even comment on that, just twists around and walks over to Neymar who happily takes him into his arms.
“Thank you.” He says again and Neymar squeezes him so hard he has trouble breathing for a moment.
“You’re still the best in the world.” The Brazilian says and then. “Ouch, be careful with my back.”
Leo shifts his arms upwards but doesn’t let go off his friend until their whole team crowds around them, joining in on their hug. Soon everybody is chatting like they normally do, the only thing different is that Leo is being passed around the locker room, talking to everybody who had patiently waited for him. 
Dani covers his face in little encouraging kisses, he hugs Cesc tightly and lets the Spaniard tell him a few horrible jokes before Iniesta comes to steal him away. Puyol invites him for dinner and then squeezes his shoulder tightly, Masche and him have a short but meaningful conversation and when he reaches Marc Barta the young player starts showing him a compilation of Leo’s best goals.
“You’re the king.” He says when it finishes.
And when Enrique eventually comes to yell at them to get their asses out on the field and everybody scurries out quickly, Leo feels light again.

Neil Armstrong toccò il suo­lo della Luna all’alba del 21 lu­glio in piazza San Pierino, dove nonostante le poche decine di metri quadrati di superficie, c’erano quattro bar: il San Piero completo di sala biliardo e tavo­li per giocare a carte, il Torricel­li, che era più una drogheria, il Piccolo bar gestito dal nonno di Pieraccioni ancora lontano da venire e la Daria, l’unico aperto a quell’ora buia, perché l’unico con la televisione. Bruno Barta­lesi, proprietario e figlio della storica e omonima fondatrice, aveva deciso di tenere aperto, certo non per un investimento economico, ché alla Daria era­no forse più quelli che pagava­no con un «Segna, per favore», quanto per una sorta di dovere sociale. Insomma, se avevi la te­levisione, la dovevi mettere a di­sposizione di chi non l’aveva, specie se quella notte s’andava sulla Luna. Va detto che l’apparecchio di cui disponeva la Daria non era un granché e che, rispetto ai maxischermi al plasma di oggi, stava come un pattino a una portaerei. Si aggiunga che le im­magini erano in bianco e nero e quelle dalla Luna erano anche parecchio sgranate, tipo film di Stanlio e Ollio. Così, visto di lì, da una stanza non tanto gran­de, più lunga che larga, quattro sedie e due tavolini contro la pa­rete di faccia al bancone, la cas­sa e i tabacchi in fondo con la tivvù sopra la testa di Bruno, il piccolo passo di Armstrong non sembrò davvero «un gran­de balzo per l’umanità», come disse l’ astronauta appena alza­ta un po’ di polvere lunare. «Questa se l’era preparata!», fu subito il commento e l’eco fu: «Gliel’hanno scritta alla Nasa; è da quand’è partito che la ripete pe’ non dimenticalla!».
L'INFINITA NON-STOP - Il fatto è che a smontare l’aulici­tà del momento ci si erano mes­si sin dalla sera prima gli stessi Tito Stagno e Ruggero Orlando, i due giornalisti, il primo dallo studio di Roma, il secondo da Houston, protagonisti della infi­nita «no-stop» mandata in on­da dalla Rai per far vivere in di­retta l’avvenimento. Erano le 22 e 20 della sera prima quando Tito Stagno, il volto più ameri­cano di cui disponesse l’emit­tente di Stato, con quel ciuffo di capelli biondi che gli ricade­va sulla fronte e gli occhiali dal­la grossa montatura nera, ave­va gridato con gli occhi sbarrati dietro lenti spesse come due ve­trine antiproiettile la frase che da tre ore aspettava di gridare: «Ha toccato!! Ha toccato in que­sto momento il suolo lunare. A voi Houston...». E dall’altra par­te dell’oceano, serafico, anzi crudele, Ruggero Orlando, «er­re » blesa e tono «blasé», gli ave­va distrutto la telecronaca epo­cale: «Qui pare che manchino ancora dieci metri...». C’era di tutto, umanamente parlando, alla Daria: era punto d’incontro di artisti già afferma­ti, celebri o che lo sarebbero sta­ti, in primo luogo da Pietro An­nigoni, che aveva studio lì vici­no in Borgo Albizi e del quale Palmiro, un cugino di Bruno, era diventato segretario; passa­vano Nino Tirinnanzi, i fratelli Bueno, Breddo, Scatizzi, Farul­li, Giuliano Pini, Loffredo, op­pure l’ancora sconosciuto Ma­rio Lovergine, che sarebbe di­ventato uno dei grafici più noti e che a quei tempi era andato a specializzarsi in America ed era tornato, lui che aveva i capelli crespi, che sembrava un’Angela Davis al maschile.
DON CUBA, NATALINO, UCCELLONE E IL TRIPPAIO - Al banco dove prendevano il caffè anche Mario Luzi e Primo Conti, i due storici baristi, Ma­rio, arrivato dal Mugello che aveva 14 anni e che rimase fino alla pensione, e Valerio, che non stava mai fermo e che Anni­goni aveva ribattezzato «giran­dola », servivano caffè e altro a personaggi come «Don Cuba», don Cubattoli, il sacerdote dei carcerati che, lasciato l’ufficio alle Murate, arrivava in biciclet­ta; o come Alberto Pistore­si, che aveva proprio di fronte il banco con la trip­pa e che, poiché gli piace­va dipingere, diceva che era pittore con l’hobby del trippaio; o come Nata­lino, il proprietario del­l’omonimo ristorante, che era grande la metà di adesso, e che «campava a Campari»; o come Arman­do, meglio conosciuto co­me «Uccellone», e il perché è meglio lasciar perdere, titolare della trattoria, se così poteva es­sere chiamata una specie di osteria in piazza, proprio sotto la torre, composta di una sola stanza che era la cucina dove erano anche tre tavolini per mangiare, più due all’aperto se non pioveva. Ai fornelli era la Cocchina, che poi era la compa­gna di Uccellone, e tra i due, in­differenti ai clienti perlopiù stu­denti squattrinati, scoppiavano regolarmente epiche liti con lancio non di piatti, ma di fia­schi di vino alcuni dei quali, for­tunatamente, mancavano il ber­saglio e andavano a schiantarsi contro il tabernacolo della Ma­donna all’inizio di via Matteo Palmieri, che, per l’appunto era stata ribattezzata «la Madonna briaca». Fu in mezzo a questa umani­tà che, almeno in piazza San Pie­rino, sbarcò Neil Armstrong.

Byronosaurus jaffei
Tumblr media
By Ripley Cook
Etymology: Byron’s Reptile
First Described By: Norell, Makovicky, & Clark, 2000
Classification: Dinosauromorpha, Dinosauriformes, Dracohors, Dinosauria, Saurischia, Eusaurischia, Theropoda, Neotheropoda, Averostra, Tetanurae, Orionides, Avetheropoda, Coelurosauria, Tyrannoraptora, Maniraptoriformes, Maniraptora, Pennaraptora, Paraves, Eumaniraptora, Troodontidae, Troodontinae
Status: Extinct
Time and Place: Between 78 and 75 million years ago, in the Campanian of the Late Cretaceous 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Byronosaurus is known from the Ukhaa Tolgod of the Djadokhta Formation in Mongolia 
Tumblr media
Physical Description: Byronosaurus was a Troodontid, a type of slender almost-bird with the same sickle-shaped claws as the famous Raptors, but much smaller and built more for trapping food than strategic stabbing. Like other members of the group, Byronosaurus was fairly small, slender, with large wings and skinny legs 0 it only reached about 1.5 meters in length, and 50 centimeters in height, weighing only 4 kilograms. It had a long, narrow snout attached to a decently sized neck. Its tail was also long, ending in a tail fan. Like other Troodontids, it had very closely-spaced together teeth, and a lot of them to boot. These were non-serrated teeth, which is weird for a Troodontid. It was also extremely intelligent - Troodontids had some of the larger brains for their body size of dinosaurs at the time. It would have been very fluffy indeed. We also have babies of Byronosaurus, which were either just hatched or about to hatch; they had big eyes, like most babies, and in general “cute” features. 
Tumblr media
By Michael B. H., CC BY-SA 3.0
Diet: Byronosaurus would have fed on a variety of small animals such as mammals, lizards, and baby dinosaurs.
Behavior: Byronosaurus would have been a fairly active and skittish animal, attempting to dodge predators and larger dinosaurs while still finding food. It probably would have ducked in between and around shrubs and other brittle desert plants, looking for its prey. It then could have darted into the brush, grabbed the food, and pinned it down using its feet. It probably didn’t engage much in raptor-prey-restraint flapping, though it could have if it needed to; though it likely did engage in wing-assisted-inclined-running, using powerful flaps and its light weight to run up vertical surfaces such as cliffs. It probably used its wings and tail fan for display, fluffing them out and extending them to talk to other Byronosaurus. They also would have looked distinctly different from other feathery dinosaurs in the area, using color and patterns to stand out amongst their cousins. As a desert animal, it also probably would have tried to conserve its energy wherever it could, hiding in places of shade. Byronosaurus took care of its young, and its possible that they did so in family groups.
Tumblr media
By José Carlos Cortés
Ecosystem: The Djadochta Formation was an arid desert, with red sand and dirt for miles around. This red coloration of the ground gave it the famous name “Flaming Cliffs,” and probably would have made most dinosaurs in the area actually quite red themselves, in order to blend in. Freshwater here was present - enough to have freshwater-adapted animals - but rare, only taking the form of oases and arroyos. No plant fossils are known, but they would have likely been dry shrubs and other arid-adapted plants. Here, Byronosaurus shared its environment with an innumerable variety of dinosaurs - ankylosaurs like Pinacosaurus, ceratopsians like Protoceratops, Alvarezsaurs like Kol and Shuvuuia, Oviraptorosaurs like Citipati and Khaan, Dromaeosaurs like Halszkaraptor and Velociraptor and Acheroraptor, other Troodontids like Almas, Opposite Birds like Gobipteryx, and True Birds like Apsaravis. Non-dinosaurs were present in droves too - there were Crocodylomorphs like Shamosuchus and Zaraasuchus, lizards aplenty from Slavoia to Isodontosaurus to Parmeosaurus to Mimeosaurus to Adamisaurus, turtles like Zangerlia, and a lot of small mammals like Deltatheridium and Maelestes and Zalambdalestes and Bulganbaatar and Kryptobaatar. Ultimately, lizards grew like weeds in the Djadochta, and would have been the primary source of food for Byronosaurus. Interesting enough, Byronosaurus may have had its eggs stolen and eaten by - or it parasitized the nests of - Citipati.
Other: Byronosaurus is one of many theropods known from the Djadokhta Formation, a place that is weirdly theropod heavy (and, at that, fluffy theropod heavy). It is known from multiple specimens, and is closely related to the Troodontines of North America.

Sous le drapeau du communisme, par Barta (1944)
La commémoration annuelle de la mort de Karl Liebknecht, de Rosa Luxembourg et de Lénine (survenus au mois de janvier 1919 pour les premiers et en janvier 1924, pour le dernier) n'est pas pour nous l'accomplissement d'un rite consacré par une espèce de culte “prolétarien”. La marche de l'humanité vers le communisme exige qu'on ne réveille point, sous des formes nouvelles, d'anciennes superstitions. Nous en avons besoin pour opposer aux tendances réactionnaires, qui dans le camp ouvrier représentent l'influence de la bourgeoisie, l'exemple toujours éclatant des véritables fondateurs de la IIIème Internationale.
Karl Liebknecht et Rosa Luxembourg ont milité en Allemagne avant et pendant la première guerre mondiale, Lénine en Russie. De ce fait les méthodes organisationnelles et tactiques de Karl et de Rosa n'avaient pas encore atteint, au moment où leur assassinat les arracha à leur vie de militants, la justesse des méthodes par lesquelles Lénine fit la première brèche dans le système capitaliste mondial. Mais “ils n'avaient pas dit leurs dernier mot” et il n'est pas douteux que s'ils avaient pu continuer leur carrière, ils seraient arrivés à appliquer en Allemagne les méthodes fondamentales qui avaient permis à Lénine et à Trotsky de vaincre dans l'ancien empire des tsars.
Cependant leurs divergences tactiques n'entament en rien leur profonde unité politique, leur fusion sous un symbole : les 3 L. Lénine avait appelé Rosa et Karl, les meilleurs militants de la IIIème Internationale. Si Lénine représente en particulier des méthodes organisationnelles et une tactique ayant subi avec succès l'épreuve des événements, les trois ensemble sont le symbole même de la IIIème Internationale, de l'internationalisme prolétarien.
Quand en 1914 les chefs socialistes de tous les pays, sous l'influence de la bourgeoisie, se servirent de tous les prétextes (démocratie contre militarisme en France, contre le tsarisme en Allemagne, etc…) pour voter les crédits de guerre de leur bourgeoisie et faire l'union sacrée avec elle contre les ouvriers, Karl Liebknecht, député au Reichstag, vota contre les crédits de guerre demandés par le Kaiser rejetant ainsi la guerre impérialiste et démasquant les buts de rapine de la bourgeoisie. Mais il ne se contenta pas de voter contre les crédits de guerre et de la dénoncer du haut de la tribune parlementaire. Tandis que les anciens chefs socialistes se vautraient dans l'union sacrée, il fut envoyé sur le front où la bourgeoisie espérait qu'une balle russe la débarrasserait de son ennemi. Se trouvant à Berlin en avril 1916 (en tant que député du Reichstag) il organisa une grande manifestation ouvrière de rue pour le 1er mai contre la guerre, pour la paix, le pain et la liberté. Il fut condamné par un Conseil de guerre et envoyé dans une forteresse, d'où il ne fut libéré que par la révolution allemande montante (23 octobre 1919). Le 15 janvier 1919 il tombe assassiné, avec Rosa, après l'échec de l'insurrection spartakiste à Berlin (le 12). Il nous a laissé la meilleure formule de l'internationalisme ouvrier pendant la guerre : “l'ennemi de chaque prolétariat est dans son propre pays”, la tâche des travailleurs étant de “balayer chacun devant leur propre porte”, c'est-à-dire diriger ses coups non pas contre le peuple d'en face, mais contre sa propre bourgeoisie.
Rosa Luxembourg, d'origine polonaise, fut un des meilleurs théoriciens de la IIème Internationale. Elle avait pressenti plus tôt que quiconque, y compris Lénine, la décomposition des milieux dirigeants de la social-démocratie allemande. D'une santé frêle, elle cherchait toujours dans les manifestations l'endroit populaire où “ça chauffe” ; elle est profondément “plébéienne” dans le meilleur sens du mot pour les révolutionnaires. Arrêtée une fois en février 1915 elle resta un an en prison et fut arrêtée de nouveau au milieu de l'année 1916. Comme Liebknecht, elle fut libérée par la Révolution. En prison elle écrivit sa fameuse brochure signée Junius, un réquisitoire passionné contre les fauteurs de guerre d'Allemagne et de tous les pays ; en prison également, elle accueillit la Révolution russe avec un grand enthousiasme. Dans une brochure destinée à en dégager les leçons, après une critique fraternelle de ce qu'elle croyait erroné dans la politique de Lénine et de Trotsky, elle finit ainsi : “Lénine et Trotsky et leurs amis ont été les premiers qui aient montré l'exemple au prolétariat mondial ; il sont jusqu'ici encore les seuls qui puissent s'écrier : j'ai osé !”.
Pour mener leur action, Rosa et Karl fondèrent au début de la guerre la ligue “Spartakus” (le chef de la révolte des esclaves romains contre leurs maîtres), qui plus tard donna naissance au Parti communiste allemand.
La guerre impérialiste de 1914 trouva en Lénine non seulement l'internationaliste intransigeant qui dénonce les crimes des “brigands impérialistes de tous les pays”, mais encore le chef prolétarien qui trouve la tactique juste pour remporter la victoire des exploités sur les capitalistes. Ses mots-d'ordre principaux furent : “transformation de la guerre impérialiste en guerre civile”, rupture complète et dénonciation acharnée des social-patriotes, création d'une nouvelle Internationale, la 3ème. Quand le tsarisme fut renversé en 1917 par le prolétariat de Pétrograd (aujourd'hui Léningrad), la bourgeoisie impérialiste de Russie continua sa guerre de brigandage à l'abri du régime démocratique nouvellement conquis par les masses. En l'absence de Lénine et des principaux chefs bolcheviks, qui n'étaient pas encore rentrés de l'émigration (par le fameux wagon plombé allemand qui servit plus tard de prétexte à l'entente pour le traiter d'agent de l'Allemagne), les membres du Parti qui se trouvaient à ce moment-là à la direction, tombèrent dans le piège et se déclarèrent prêts à la défense de la “révolution” russe. Lénine arriva à temps pour redresser la ligne du Parti qui dénonça dès lors la guerre comme impérialiste tant que la bourgeoisie, liée à l'Entente, ne serait pas renversée par les masses ouvrières et paysannes (soldats) et que le pouvoir ne serait pas exclusivement entre les mains des Soviets. Mais la profondeur de l'Internationalisme de Lénine ne se montre pas seulement avant la prise de pouvoir par le prolétariat en Russie. Elle se manifeste, et d'une manière encore plus décisive, après la révolution d'Octobre 17. La révolution russe n'était pour Lénine et les bolchéviks qu'un chaînon de la révolution mondiale. La victoire du socialisme dans le monde, voilà leur point de départ doctrinal et leur but pratique. Le prolétariat doit s'emparer du pouvoir là où il a la possibilité de le faire et aider la révolution dans les pays qui subissent encore le joug des capitalistes. Mais il se peut que le pays où le pouvoir est le plus facilement conquis par le prolétariat ne soit pas en même temps celui qui peut le plus rapidement faire avancer tous les autres pays dans la voie du socialisme. Lénine était prêt à risquer la révolution russe pour assurer la victoire de la révolution allemande considérée par lui comme plus importante pour le socialisme que la révolution dans l'ancien empire des tsars. De ce profond internationalisme des 3 L. s'inspire la IVème Internationale dans sa lutte contre la 2ème guerre impérialiste mondiale et pour le renversement du capitalisme. Son fondateur et guide, Léon Trotsky, le plus proche compagnon de Lénine, assassiné par Staline en août 1940, ajoute son nom à celui des 3 L. Ces militants inébranlables du communisme ont donné un exemple qui ne sera pas oublié !
