The role of common ground on object use in shaping the function of infants' social gaze
No full textDans cet article conceptuel, Nevena Dimitrova propose un cadre théorique pour étudier la fonction communicative du regard dans le développement des très jeunes enfants. Ce cadre théorique se base sur trois prémisses : la centralité de l’objet en tant que référent privilégié au sein de la communication parent-jeune enfant, l’importance des connaissances partagées sur l’usage de l’objet (i.e., usages conventionnels) ainsi que le rôle des interprétations parentales quant à la fonction communicative des regards des jeunes enfants. En montrant comment les interactions entre enfants et parents se construisent autour des objets, elle montre le rôle central de la socio-matérialité dans le développement de la communication chez les très jeunes enfants.Although infants’ social gaze has specific communicative functions, it remains unclear what they are. In this conceptual analysis paper, we provide a theoretical framework for the study of the functional aspects of eye gaze in early childhood. We argue that studying the communicative functions of infants’ eye gaze involves three premises: the centrality of the object, the importance of common ground on object use, and the role of parental interpretations. The ability to communicate intentionally begins when infants start referring to external objects. Beyond dyadic – infant–parent – emotional sharing, infant social gaze within the infant–parent–object triad becomes an increasingly complex communicative modality. As the predominant type of communicative referents in infancy, objects are thus central to early communication. Although they have affordances, objects are used in conventional ways shared between users (i.e., common ground). Parents transmit to infants the socio-cultural use of objects, which infants progressively learn and master. Accordingly, we argue that within early triadic interactions, the communicative function of infants’ eye gaze is shaped by the knowledge that the infant and the parent share on the socio-cultural use of the referent (i.e., the object). Importantly, before young children develop their ability to convey clear communicative functions, including with eye gaze, the interpretations and responses that parents provide to infants’ early communicative acts play a major role. Relying on these premises, we argue that when referring to objects for which the infant and the parent share common ground, the function of the infant’s social gaze becomes communicatively meaningful for the parent. The knowledge on the communicative referent (i.e., the object) shared between the infant and the parent thus shapes the course of communicative behavior, constitutes and reflects the interactive function of gaze, and cues parents into tailoring their communicative response according to the infant’s developmental needs. Through this theoretical framework for the study of the communicative function of infant eye gaze, an emphasis is put on the key role that socio-materiality plays in early communicative development

Posredovanje u sećanju preživelih prve i druge generacije: Magda Bošan Simin i Nevena Simin "Zašto su ćutale: majka i ćerka o istom ratu"
No full textThe reasons for researching the works of Yugoslav author Magda Bošan Simin are several: (1) her novel "When the Sour Cherries Bloom" (1958) was probably the first literary representation of the Holocaust written by a woman author in Yugoslavia; (2) Bošan Simin represents the Holocaust in multiple formats (documentary prose, memoir, autobiographical novel); (3) the book "Why They Said Nothing: Mother and Daughter on One and the Same War" (2009, English edition 2015) is a narrative comprised of texts written by both Magda Bošan Simin as a Holocaust survivor and her daughter Nevena Simin as a second-generation Holocaust survivor. The research focuses on Holocaust survivors and their post-Holocaust children, issues of memory in Holocaust representation, types of memory, memory mediation, author’s intentionality, and gender and identity issues.Razloga za istraživanja dela jugoslovenske autorke Magde Bošan Simin je nekoliko: (1) njen roman "Kad cvetaju višnje" (1958.) verovatno prvi književni prikaz Holokausta koji je napisala žena autor u Jugoslaviji; (2) Bošan Simin predstavlja Holokaust u više formata (dokumentarna proza, memoari, autobiografski roman); (3) knjiga "Zašto su ćutale: majka i ćerka u istom ratu" (2009, Englesko izdanje 2015) je narativ koji se sastoji od tekstova koje su napisale obe - Magde Bošan Simin kao preživela Holokausta i njena ćerka Nevena Simin kao druga generacija preživele Holokaust. Istraživanje se fokusira na preživele Holokausta i njihovu decu posle Holokausta, pitanje sećanja u predstavljanju Holokausta, vrste pamćenja, posredovanje u pamćenju, autorska intencionalnost, pol i pitanja identiteta.Tema ovog broja: "Balkanske Jevrejke" (the topic of this issue: "Balkan Jewish women")
