Henry Purcell
Henry Purcell (10. september 1659 (?) – 21. nóvember 1695) var breskt barokktónskáld. Tónlist hans var einstök og hann notaði ýmsa þætti úr ítalskri og franskri tónlist sem hann blandaði við enska tónlist fyrri tíðar.
Æviágrip
Purcell fæddist í Westminster og komst í kórinn í Royal Chapel þar sem hann lærði að syngja og skrifa nótur. Elsta þekkta verk hans er óður til konungsins frá 1670.
1676 var hann gerður að organista við Westminster Abbey. Hann samdi fjölda verka við leikrit, óperettur og óperur, meðal annars við verk John Dryden og Thomas Shadwell. Eitt af frægustu verkum hans er óperan Dido and Aeneas.
Helsta verk Purcells er talið vera Te Deum and Jubilate, fyrsti lofsöngurinn sem saminn er á enska tungu með undirleik hljómsveitar. Verkið var flutt árlega í Pálskirkjunni í London til 1712 þegar það var flutt til skiptis við Utrecht Te Deum and Jubilate eftir Georg Friedrich Händel til 1743 þegar Dettingen Te Deum Händels tók við.
Purcell lést aðeins 36 ára að aldri eftir veikindi, hugsanlega berkla. Ekkja hans gaf út mörg verka hans að honum látnum, þar til hún lést 1706.

In cryptography, a Caesar cipher, also known as a Caesar's cipher or the shift cipher, is one of the simplest and most widely-known encryption techniques. It is a type of substitution cipher in which each letter in the plaintext is replaced by a letter some fixed number of positions further down the alphabet. For example, with a shift of 3, A would be replaced by D, B would become E, and so on. The method is named after Julius Caesar, who used it to communicate with his generals.
The encryption step performed by a Caesar cipher is often incorporated as part of more complex schemes, such as the Vigenère cipher, and still has modern application in the ROT13 system. As with all single alphabet substitution ciphers, the Caesar cipher is easily broken and in practice offers essentially no communication security.
Example
The transformation can be represented by aligning two alphabets; the cipher alphabet is the plain alphabet rotated left or right by some number of positions. For instance, here is a Caesar cipher using a right rotation of three places (the shift parameter, here 3, is used as the key):
Plain: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
Cipher: DEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZABC
To encipher a message, simply look up each letter of the message in the "plain" line and write down the corresponding letter in the "cipher" line. To decipher, do the reverse.
Plaintext: thequickbrownfoxjumpsoverthelazydog
Ciphertext: WKHTXLFNEURZQIRAMXPSVRYHUWKHODCBGRJ
The encryption can also be represented using modular arithmetic by first transforming the letters into numbers, according to the scheme, A = 0, B = 1,..., Z = 25. Encryption of a letter by a shift n can be described mathematically as,
:
Decryption is performed similarly,

History and usage
modular arithmeticThe Caesar cipher is named after Julius Caesar, who, according to Suetonius, used it with a shift of three to protect messages of military significance:
:If he had anything confidential to say, he wrote it in cipher, that is, by so changing the order of the letters of the alphabet, that not a word could be made out. If anyone wishes to decipher these, and get at their meaning, he must substitute the fourth letter of the alphabet, namely D, for A, and so with the others. — Suetonius, Life of Julius Caesar 56 [http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/ancient/suetonius-julius.html].
While Caesar's was the first recorded use of this scheme, other substitution ciphers are known to have been used earlier. Julius Caesar's nephew Augustus also used the cipher, but with a shift of one:
:Whenever he wrote in cipher, he wrote B for A, C for B, and the rest of the letters on the same principle, using AA for X. — Suetonius, Life of Augustus 88.
There is evidence that Julius Caesar used more complicated systems as well, and one writer, Aulus Gellius, refers to a (now lost) treatise on his ciphers:
:There is even a rather ingeniously written treatise by the grammarian Probus concerning the secret meaning of letters in the composition of Caesar's epistles. — Aulus Gellius, 17.9.1–5.
It is unknown how effective the Caesar cipher was at the time, but it is likely to have been reasonably secure, not least because few of Caesar's enemies would have been literate, let alone able to consider cryptanalysis. Assuming that an attacker could read the message, there is no record at that time of any techniques for the solution of simple substitution ciphers. The earliest surviving records date to the 9th century AD in the Arab world with the discovery of frequency analysis.
In the 19th Century, the personal advertisements section in newspapers would sometimes be used to exchange messages encrypted using simple cipher schemes. Kahn (1967) describes instances of lovers engaging in secret communications enciphered using the Caesar cipher in The Times. Even as late as 1915, the Caesar cipher was in use: the Russian army employed it as a replacement for more complicated ciphers which had proved to be too difficult for their troops to master; German and Austrian cryptanalysts had little difficulty in decrypting their messages.
Caesar ciphers can be found today in children's toys such as secret decoder rings. A Caesar shift of 13 is also performed in the ROT13 algorithm, a simple method of obfuscating text used in some Internet forums to obscure text (such as joke punchlines and story spoilers), but not used as a method of encryption.
The Vigenère cipher uses a Caesar cipher with a different shift at each position in the text; the value of the shift is defined using a repeating keyword. If the keyword were 1) chosen randomly and 2) was as long as the message (so that it did not repeat), the resultant system would be theoretically unbreakable — equivalent to the one-time pad cipher.
Breaking the cipher
The Caesar cipher can be easily broken even in a ciphertext-only scenario. Two situations can be considered: 1) an attacker knows (or guesses) that some sort of simple substitution cipher has been used, but not specifically that it is a Caesar scheme; and 2) an attacker knows that a Caesar cipher is in use, but does not know the shift value.
In the first case, the cipher can be broken using the same techniques as for a general simple substitution cipher, such as frequency analysis or pattern words. While solving, it is likely that an attacker will quickly notice the regularity in the solution and deduce that a Caesar cipher is the specific algorithm employed.
In the second instance, breaking the scheme is even more straightforward. Since there are only a limited number of possible shifts (26 in English), they can each be tested in turn in a brute force attack. One way to do this is to write out a snippet of the ciphertext in a table of all possible shifts — a technique sometimes known as "completing the plain component". The example given is for the ciphertext "EXXEGOEXSRGI"; the plaintext is instantly recognisable by eye at a shift of four. Another way of viewing this method is that, under each letter of the ciphertext, the entire alphabet is written out in reverse starting at that letter. This attack can be speeded up using a set of strips prepared with the alphabet written on them, the strips are then aligned in columns according to the ciphertext, and the plaintext should appear on one of the resulting rows.
brute force attack
Another brute force approach is to match up the frequency distribution of the letters. By graphing the frequencies of letters in the ciphertext, and by knowing the expected distribution of those letters in the original language of the plaintext, a human can easily spot the value of the shift by looking at the displacement of particular features of the graph. This is known as frequency analysis. For example in the English language the plaintext frequencies of the letters E, T, (usually most frequent), and Q, Z (typically least frequent) are particularly distinctive. Computers can also do this by measuring how well the actual frequency distribution matches up with the expected distribution; for example, the chi-square statistic can be used.
For natural language plaintext, there will, in all likelihood, be only one plausible decryption, although for extremely short plaintexts, multiple candidates are possible. For example, the ciphertext MPQY could, plausibly, decrypt to either "aden" or "know" (assuming the plaintext is in English); similarly, "ALIIP" to "dolls" or "wheel"; and "AFCCP" to "jolly" or "cheer" (see also unicity distance).
Multiple encryptions and decryptions provide no additional security. This is because two encryptions of, say, shift A and shift B, will be equivalent to an encryption with shift A + B. In mathematical terms, the encryption under various keys forms a group.

A kommunizmus fekete könyve
A kommunizmus fekete könyve (Le Livre noir du communisme) 1997 novemberében jelent meg, azonnal hatalmas vitát kiváltva mind történészi, mind politikai körökben.
A szerzők kettős célt tűztek ki maguk elé: megakadályozni a felejtést (travail de mémoire), illetve megvizsgálni, milyen szerepet foglal el a kommunizmus működésében a bűn, az erőszak, a gyilkosság. A könyv kritikusai a lehető legritkábban bírálják a mű valamely részének ténybeli pontosságát, annál sikertelenebbnek ítélik a vállalkozást a máso
