Samira Bellil: Dans l'enfer des tournantes - commented translation extended by analysis of translation complexities and reception of literature of the "beurs"
No full textThis master's thesis consists of a Czech language translation and commentary for selected chapters of Dans l'enfer des tournantes, an autobiography by Samira Bellil, a French author of Algerian descent. The commentary is divided into two parts: a presentation of literature written by French authors of Maghrebi descent, the so-called beurs, the language they use in literature and reception of their works; and an analysis of the source text and its reception, the problems encountered during the process of translation and their solutions as well as the chosen translation method. Key words: Samira Bellil, autobiography, beurs, translation, translation analysis, translation method, translation problem, translation shift, suburbs of Pari
Mohammed Dib – Jean Sénac
No full textInternational audienceUn siècle après la naissance de son auteur, l’œuvre de Mohammed Dib (1920-2003) ne cesse de nous surprendre et de nous émerveiller. Celui qui, pendant la guerre d’indépendance, se fit le chantre, dans sa trilogie romanesque (La Grande Maison, L’Incendie et Le Métier à tisser) d’une Algérie profonde, miséreuse et souffrante, fut aussi de ceux qui donnèrent à la littérature algérienne cette dimension universelle qui la caractérisa très tôt. Romancier, conteur, auteur dramatique, mais aussi poète avant tout et toujours, les études, témoignages et textes inédits réunis dans le présent dossier tracent le portrait d’un écrivain dont l’élévation d’esprit n’a d’égale que l’inventivité verbale.Poète algérien « de graphie française », selon son expression, Jean Sénac (1926-1973) fit une entrée fracassante en poésie, au milieu des années 1950, sous le double patronage d’Albert Camus et de René Char. Des nuits de son exil parisien à celles de sa « cave-vigie » de la rue Élisée-Reclus, à Alger, où il vécut et fut assassiné, Sénac aura traversé sa trop brève existence comme le veilleur d’Eschyle, les yeux fixés vers l’horizon, guettant une aurore qui tardait à poindre. C’est pourtant une poésie généreuse et solaire que celle de Sénac, une poésie de « l’atelier immense du soleil », comme l’écrivait René Char

Social media and the Arab Spring
No full textIn late of 2010 and during 2011, the Arab countries saw a series of large scale political uprisings. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and other forms of social media have played a major role in the planning, acceleration, and even the preparation of some of the uprisings and revolutions that too place in the Middle East at this time. Social media was employed effectively to awaken the Arab people and to mobilize them to fight against repressive regimes in their drive for greater freedom and independence. This paper will discuss the cause of the uprisings. In addition, the role of social media in the Middle East before the revolutions and the impact it had on the uprisings and revolutions known as the Arab Springs will be examined.M.A.L.S.Includes bibliographical referencesby Samira F.

Refrigerants and their impact in the environment. Use of the solar energy as the source of energy
No full textAbstractFrom household refrigerator to cooling chambers and passing by air conditioners of all types, refrigerants are widely used in both industrial and domestic equipments. These fluids, which are henceforth being banned due in particular to their environmental toxicity, are expected to be replaced. Replacing them is a difficult task considering that the only solutions currently available are the so-called “natural” refrigerants, such as ammonia, hydrocarbons and CO2. The disadvantages of these products are mainly toxicity (NH3), flammability (HC) and high pressures (CO2). However, with minimal skills and compliance with safety rules, they do not eventually prove to be more dangerous than other fluids. Our endeavour in this project is intended as a contribution to the protection of our environment. The motive being to produce cold for freezing foodstuffs, preservation of pharmaceuticals and space cooling. We aim in particular at the control of clean (white) rooms. Considering the climate situation in our country, this cold production will be supported by the use of solar energy as a power source, in order to ensure the autonomy of these areas in arid and semi arid regions. An alternative that seems promised to a bright future
The Poetics of Textual Thresholds in Ahcene El-Kharrat’s Collections of Poetry
No full textAbstract: The aim of this study is to analyze the poetics of textual thresholds in the poetry of Ahcene El-Kharrat (1989-2019), to query their various dimensions, connotations and artistic features, based on the assumption that contemporary poetic text is no longer just a set of poems nicely written and collected in a book, but rather a mosaic of written texts, para (meta) texts, and thresholds related to their hypertext. The thresholds’ role is vital. Its importance cannot be ignored while formulating the general poetic context of the poem. The latter cannot reach completeness without its textual thresholds that opens up new poetic and artistic perspectives. We will shed light, in this analytical and intertextual research, on the thresholds of the poems in the collections of the Algerian poet Ahcene El-Kharrat entitled: Nabdh-al-faji’a (Pulse of Bereavement), Basar Al-Turab (Sight of the earth) and Shatah Al-darawishes (the Dervishes’ imagination).

Refrigerants and their Environmental Impact Substitution of Hydro Chlorofluorocarbon HCFC and HFC Hydro Fluorocarbon. Search for an Adequate Refrigerant
No full textAbstractGlobally, the production of cold housing is seen as a major energy challenge of this new century. The economic development of developing countries, submitted their majority in hot climates, will lead to a growing demand chilling requirements. Yet currently, the production of cold solutions is mainly based on refrigeration systems major consumers of electrical energy.It is then necessary to prepare socio-economically acceptable solutions tailored to meet those needs without compromising future international commitments on the protection of the environment, particularly for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and better protection of the ozone layer by use of refrigerants neutral. For some years now, because of their impact on the environment, the use of halogenated refrigerants has been progressively subject to quotas. In this context, the use of “natural” refrigerants becomes a possible solution. We introduce in this work the merit of redeploying these natural refrigerants as an alternative solution to replace halogenated refrigerants. The solution to the environmental impacts of refrigerant gases would therefore pass by a gas which contains no chlorine no fluorine and does not reject any CO2 emissions in the atmosphere, in brief a green gas! The aim of our project is to contribute to the protection of our environment. Our motive being to produce cold for freezing foodstuffs and seeds, safeguarding pharmaceuticals and cooling of premises: temperature conditions, air qualities controlling and producing. This work is also concerned by a contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gases and by the replacement of the polluting cooling fluids (HCFC). It is essentially the refrigeration at low temperatures, lower than (-20°C), using the solar thermal energy, in order to improve the quality of life for many people especially in arid and semi arid regions in our country
Electron–hole superfluidity in strained Si/Ge type II heterojunctions
No full textExcitons are promising candidates for generating superfluidity and Bose–Einstein condensation (BEC) in solid-state devices, but an enabling material platform with in-built band structure advantages and scaling compatibility with industrial semiconductor technology is lacking. Here we predict that spatially indirect excitons in a lattice-matched strained Si/Ge bilayer embedded into a germanium-rich SiGe crystal would lead to observable mass-imbalanced electron–hole superfluidity and BEC. Holes would be confined in a compressively strained Ge quantum well and electrons in a lattice-matched tensile strained Si quantum well. We envision a device architecture that does not require an insulating barrier at the Si/Ge interface, since this interface offers a type II band alignment. Thus the electrons and holes can be kept very close but strictly separate, strengthening the electron–hole pairing attraction while preventing fast electron–hole recombination. The band alignment also allows a one-step procedure for making independent contacts to the electron and hole layers, overcoming a significant obstacle to device fabrication. We predict superfluidity at experimentally accessible temperatures of a few Kelvin and carrier densities up to ~6 × 1010 cm−2, while the large imbalance of the electron and hole effective masses can lead to exotic superfluid phases.QCD/Scappucci La
