agree  Hacene: yes, but I would be tempted to put a capital letter at the start of Emersonien et Duboisien
2 hrs
  -> well tempted!
agree  Marie-Céline GEORG: oui, sans majuscules - ce sont des adjectifs dérivés de noms propres
17 hrs
  -> don't be so hard, Hacene was only tempted, it wasn't like he was really going to do it, you're probably both right, I couldn't find any concrete proof either way
