Full text linkThis article examines the genericevolution of Ahmed Bencherif’swork, characterized by the transition from the historicalnovel to the documentaryessay, as a key factor in the renewal of contemporary Algerian literature. Drawing on a corpus composed of an in-depth interview and a biographicaltext, the studyadopts a qualitative and hermeneuticapproachthat combines genericanalysis, sociocritical perspectives, and discourseanalysis. The findingsdemonstratethatthisgenerichybridizationconstitutes a literary and epistemicstrategyaimed at articulating narrative sensibilitywithscholarlylegitimacy. While the historicalnovel enables the re-embodiment of marginalized or silencedhistoricalevents, the documentaryessay, grounded in archivalresearch, provideshistoriographical and argumentative authority.

Quranic Semantics and the Power of Interpretation The Language of the Face and Eyes
Full text link— Among the organs of the human body, the face stands out as one of the most expressive and communicative. Therefore, our study focused on the meaning of facial language and one of its essential extensions: the eye. Based on this, the research was structured to extract meaning and offer an interpretation in light of the Quranic text and its individual understanding. It also examined its everyday uses in societies, taking into account their cultural, religious, and environmental contexts. The study attempted to highlight the varying meanings of the two terms in the different contexts in which they appear in the Quranic discourse. Thus, we identified a plurality of meanings, sometimes divergent and even contradictory, depending on the context in which they are used.

ETUDE PARASITOLOGIQUE DES FIENTES DU PIGEON RAMIER Columba palumbus Linnaueus 1758 DE LA REGION DE LARBAA ET OULED YAÏCH (MITIDJA, ALGERIE)
Full text linkThe present study focuses on endoparasites that infect the wood pigeon (Columba palumbus), captured in two stations in the region of Mitidja: Larbaâ and Ouled Yaïch, during winter and spring. The parasitological analysis, carried out using different techniques, allowed to identify 12 species of endoparasites. Eimeria sp was the most common (42%), followed by Ascaridia sp (33.33%), Endolimax sp and Tetrameres sp (29.17% each) and Strongyloides sp (20.83%). The other species were less represented. In addition, two unusual parasites were detected: Pseudolimax sp and Ancylostoma sp. This study highlights the potential risk to human health and the environment posed by the dejection of the ramie pigeon, in particular because of its frequent proximity to populated areasLa présente étude s'intéresse aux endoparasites qui infectent le pigeon ramier (Columba palumbus), capturé dans deux stations de la région de Mitidja : Larbaâ et Ouled Yaïch, durant les saisons hivernale et printanière.

Paradoxes Surrounding the Reception of Francophone African Writers Sami Tchak or the Writer’s Color
Full text linkIn Les Frontières racialisées de la littérature française. Contrôle au faciès et stratégies de passage (2017), S. Burnautzki reminds us that Bourdieu's theory of fields is not solely rooted in a commercial perspective and a rejection of mass culture, but is also permeated by an unacknowledged racial and colonial bias that shapes the conditions of reception. Francophone writers from sub-Saharan Africa, whose production, distribution, and reception depend almost entirely on Paris, find themselves in an ambivalent situation of appreciation and acceptance both in France and in Africa, their continent of origin. On the one hand, the global literary establishment, from which they are honored with prestigious literary prizes, does not (necessarily) grant their publications added value, and on the other hand, in Africa, they remain less widely read due to several factors, including the controversies that their fiction can sometimes provoke.
This study focuses specifically on the reflections of Sami Tchak, a Togolese author living in France since 1986, and winner of several literary prizes in both Europe and Africa. Following repeated questions he receives during meetings between writers and readers, he wrote an autobiography entitled La Couleur de l’écrivain, in which he addresses the challenges of the reception of so-called “Afrosporic” writers, of whom he is a leading figure. To better understand the aforementioned work, we will first examine the question of identity and race as obstacles to the symbolic recognition of Francophone African writers within the French literary field. Then, through the concept of “literature of the rich/literature of the poor”, we will explore how the trajectory of African writers based in Europe gives rise to a double paradox in terms of their reception.

إشكاليات التأويل وعملية الفهم في التداوليات المعرفية رواية إرهابيس أرض الإثم والغفران لـ عز الدين ميهوبي
No full textن تأويل الأقوال هو عملية مرتبطة بواقع وحقيقة الأقوال، ذلك أن التأويل يفترض إجراءات تحليلية وصفية لعمليات كلامية موجودة فعلا، أي متحققة بفضل اللغة التي هي نظام مزدوج: نظام من العلامات والرموز اللسانية، ونظام معرفي سيكولوجي، وبناء على هذا الازدواج تطرح إمكانيتان إجرائيتان لمفهوم التأويل : - الإمكانية الأولى: يكون للتأويل فيها موضوع واحد هو وصف عملية الفهم التي تتحقق عن طريق اللغة وحدها، وهذا الوصف ليس له أية علاقة بالحقول المعرفية الأخرى (نفسية، سياقية،...). - الإمكانية الثانية: يكون التأويل فيها مندمجا داخل منظومة عامة للعمليات المعرفية التي تحقق الفهم، وهي منظومة تسمح بالإحاطة بكل الحقول المعرفية التي تدور في فلك الفهم الشامل للقول. وانطلاقا من هاتين الإمكانيتين ظهرت النظرية التداولية المعرفية التي أرسى قواعدها كل من "سبيربر" و"ويلسون" في كتابهما (الإصابية Pertinence)، حيث ينطلقان في تحليلهما لعملية الفهم من مجموعة من المبادئ والمفاهيم أبرزها مبدأ "الملاءمة" .
 
The nature of aesthetic judgments in Kant's philosophical project
Full text linkThe various philosophical contributions of Kant made his writings starting with “Critique of Theoretical Reason” moving to “Critique of Practical Reason” and ending with “Critique of Judgment,” as a systematic project that flourished modern philosophy and impacted profoundly on later philosophies. The last Kantian contributions, the faculty of judgment which he established, might be called Kant's theory of aesthetics. This last contribution was indeed his attempt to complete his philosophical system, as it appears as such especially during the analysis of aesthetic judgments, how it seems on the same time an analysis in the philosophy of aesthetic taste associated with feeling, and also has a theoretical dimension without entering or intersection with the theoretical field or what Kant calls the faculty of comprehension with neither ethical research through the criticism of practical reason nor the faculty of will. Thus, Kant's contribution to the philosophy of beauty has its characteristics, but in the end these characteristics remain faithful to the principles of Kant's philosophical project

Tadjer’s Writing between Collective Memory and Protest From history to History
Full text linkThe colonial history of Algeria and the struggles for independence hold a central place in Algerian literature, where writers revisit this past in order to grasp its wounds and its enduring legacies. In De ruines et de gloire, Akli Tadjer fully situates his narrative within this dynamic by intertwining fiction with real historical events. Our study seeks to understand how the author mobilizes History to involve his fictional characters in Algeria’s struggles while simultaneously questioning collective memory. It also aims to show how the narrative weaves together individual and national memory to reveal the impact of History on personal destinies. Through this fusion of the real and the fictional, Tadjer conveys a living memory of Algerian resistance, making this past more tangible, accessible, and universal for the reader.
