Poetic intertextuality in the art of Maqamat - Bachir Bouktir as a model -
No full textتهدف هذه الورقة البحثية إلى استكشاف مواطن الانفتاح الثّقافي المتعدّد الأجناس الذي شهدته المقامة الجزائرية الحديثة، خاصة من خلال الرّجوع إلى النّص الشّعري وتوظيف بعض المقاطع منها داخل المتن الحكائي، بغية تطعيم هذه المتون بما هو شعري محض، وكذلك إيصاله للآخر حتّى يتعرّف على الثّقافة الشّعرية التي يتمتّع بها الأديب العربي كما فعل البشير بوكثير صاحب المدوّنة المختارة للدّراسة.
لنصل في خضمّ هذا الطّرح إلى فكرة مفادها أنّ مقامات البشير بوكثير جاءت محمّلة بالتّناص الشّعري نظير انفتاحه على الثّقافة الشّعرية العربية والنّهل منها اتّباعا وإبداعا وهو ما يثير في أذهاننا السّؤال التّالي: ما هي آليات وسبل انبناء التّناص الشّعري عند البشير بوكثير؟This study aims to explore the aspects of multicultural openness present in modern Algerian maqama, particularly through the integration of poetic texts by incorporating some excerpts within the narrative framework. The purpose is to enrich these narratives with purely poetic elements and present them to others, allowing them to appreciate the poetic culture enjoyed by Arab writers, as exemplified by Bachir Boukethir, the author of the selected corpus under study.
Through this discussion, we arrive at the idea that Boukethir’s maqamat are laden with poetic intertextuality, reflecting his openness to and engagement with Arab poetic traditions, both through adherence and innovation. This raises the following question: What are the mechanisms and methods by which poetic intertextuality is constructed in the works of Bachir Boukethir
Public sector pay and employment reform : a review of World Bank experience
No full textThis paper offers an interim review of the Bank's experience with public sector pay and employment reform. Its aim is to establish what has been done and what has been learnt to date. The objectives of the paper are to inventory and analyze Bank operational work in selected countries and to provide a brief guide to Bank research and policy work on this subject. The review covers the period between 1981 and February 1987. The paper tries to draw attention to issues that have emerged in the early phases of these activities and to make some tentative suggestions about directions for future Bank work; rather than draw conclusions about the impact of these efforts. The paper covers only the Bank's experience with pay and employment policy issues in central governments (generally with particular reference to the civil service).Banks&Banking Reform,Municipal Financial Management,Health Monitoring&Evaluation,Labor Management and Relations,Environmental Economics&Policies

No full textRécit journalistique et action collective dans l’Egypte des années 2000
No full textLa presse privée égyptienne a fortement investi la couverture des mouvements de protestation en Egypte. Son émergence au milieu des années 2000 coïncide de manière significative avec la montée des protestations collectives. En s’appuyant sur quelques travaux fondateurs de Michel de Certeau, notamment à travers sa célèbre distinction entre la « stratégie » et la « tactique », l’auteur revient sur le rôle du récit journalistique dans la vague de mobilisations qu’a connu le milieu des « travailleurs » égyptiens à partir de 2004. L’auteur espère aussi par-là participer au débat sur le rôle des sources de presse dans l’étude des mouvements de protestation.The Egyptian private press invested heavily in the coverage of protest movements in Egypt. The emergence of Egyptian private press in the years following the turn of the millennium significantly coincided with the rise of collective protest. By basing his research on several foundational works by Michel de Certeau, notably through his famous distinction between "strategy" and "tactic", The author revisits the role of journalistic narrative in the wave of protests that took over the Egyptian "working class", starting from 2004. The author also hopes, in this way, to participate in the debate on the role of press sources in the study of protest movements
Maternal smoking: Determinants and associated morbidity in two areas in Lebanon
No full textObjectives: This study assessed the factors related to smoking during pregnancy in two areas in Lebanon, and the association of smoking to selected maternal and newborn health related factors. Methods: This wasa secondary analysis of data on 538 women who delivered in nine hospitals in two areas in Lebanon. Women were interviewed about their smoking practices, and on demographic and psychosocial variables. 396 women were followed up and re-interviewed about their smoking status, and the mother's and baby's health after delivery. Smoking during pregnancy included both cigarettes and narghile smoking. Results: About 25.7percent of women were smoking some kind of tobacco during pregnancy. Older women, Muslim women, women with poor education, those who had financial difficulty, nervousness, lower support, and delay in seeking prenatal care were more likely to smoke during pregnancy. Women who smoked during pregnancy were more likely to have a low birth weight baby and to stop breastfeeding. Conclusions: It is important to address smoking among women in general, and not only during pregnancy. We discuss the role of public and private sectors in smoking cessation and interventions. © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2007.Baddoura R, 2001, East Mediterr Health J, V7, P819; Barbour B., 2006, Eastern Mediterranean Health Journal, V12, P405; Bobak Martin, 2000, TOBACCO CONTROL DEV, P41; Bullock LFC, 2001, ADDICT BEHAV, V26, P405, DOI 10.1016-S0306-4603(00)00118-0; Chaaya M, 2002, Arch Womens Ment Health, V5, P65, DOI 10.1007-s00737-002-0140-8; Chaaya M, 2004, ADDICT BEHAV, V29, P1821, DOI 10.1016-j.addbeh.2004.04.008; Christian P, 2004, EUR J CLIN NUTR, V58, P204, DOI 10.1038-sj.ejcn.1601767; Clatworthy J, 1999, PSYCHOL HLTH MED, V4, P319, DOI 10.1080-135485099106243; Cnattingius S, 2004, NICOTINE TOB RES, V6, pS125, DOI 10.1080-14622200410001669187; Coleman T, 2004, BRIT MED J, V328, P965, DOI 10.1136-bmj.328.7446.965; DiClemente CC, 2000, TOB CONTROL, V9, P16; Fagerstrom K, 2002, DRUGS, V62, P1, DOI 10.2165-00003495-200262002-00001; FISHER N, 2005, HLTH POLICY, V71, P1; HANSON BS, 1990, ADDICT BEHAV, V15, P221, DOI 10.1016-0306-4603(90)90065-6; Le Foll B, 2005, EUR PSYCHIAT, V20, P431, DOI 10.1016-j.eurpsy.2004.12.008; Leon-Cava N, 2002, QUANTIFYING BENEFITS; Levin ED, 2007, PHYSIOL BEHAV, V90, P54, DOI 10.1016-j.physbeh.2006.08.026; Liu JH, 2006, AM J PUBLIC HEALTH, V96, P309, DOI 10.2105-AJPH.2004.060798; Lu Y, 2001, HEALTH PROMOT INT, V16, P355, DOI 10.1093-heapro-16.4.355; LUMLEY J, 2004, COCHRANE DB SYST REV, P1; MAMUN A., 2006, AM J EPIDEMIOL, V164, P317; Molyneux AN, 2004, BRIT MED J, V328, P454, DOI 10.1136-bmj.328.7437.454; Morasco BJ, 2006, ADDICT BEHAV, V31, P203, DOI 10.1016-j.addbeh.2005.04.022; Najdawi F, 1999, East Mediterr Health J, V5, P450; Nuwayhid IA, 1998, AM J EPIDEMIOL, V148, P375; Parrott AC, 1999, AM PSYCHOL, V54, P817, DOI 10.1037--0003-066X.54.10.817; Phung HN, 2003, ADDICT BEHAV, V28, P1333, DOI 10.1016-S0306-4603(02)00255-1; Seltzer V, 2003, INT J GYNECOL OBSTET, V82, P393, DOI 10.1016-S0020-7292(03)00227-3; Shihadeh A, 2003, FOOD CHEM TOXICOL, V41, P143, DOI 10.1016-S0278-6915(02)00220-X; SIAHPUSH M, 2005, ADDICTION, V101, P121; *UN CHILDR FUND, 2000, NAT PER SURV LEB 199; Ussher M, 2006, PATIENT EDUC COUNS, V61, P467, DOI 10.1016-j.pec.2005.06.021; Wagner J, 2004, ADDICT BEHAV, V29, P1039, DOI 10.1016-j.addbeh.2004.02.058; World Health Organisation, 2006, 1 C PART WHO FRAM CO; Zimmer MH, 1998, SOC SCI J, V35, P133, DOI 10.1016-S0362-3319(98)90065-911161
The educational and psychological impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on medical students
No full textAbstractThe SARS- CoV-2 virus has been a public health crisis since its emergence in 2019. It has affected nearly all aspects of life. Education has been particularly hit, and a lot of effort has been put to implement more and more virtual platforms through online classes, meetings and conferences. Medical education has also been affected, especially because of the need for hands-on education, specifically in the clinical setting of the last 2 years. This had a huge psychological impact on the medical students currently enrolled in medical schools around the globe.In this descriptive study, we sent all medical students at the American University of Beirut Faculty of Medicine (AUBFM) an online anonymous survey by email. The survey started with general questions (age, gender and medical school year), followed by 3 sections that contain questions pertaining to the attitudes of medical students towards clinical rotations and online classes. Data was then analyzed using SPSSv24 and was then reported as percentages.Students were almost equally divided among the medical school classes (Med 1, 2, 3, and 4). The majority of clinical students (Med 3 and Med 4) reported that they feel nervous during their rotations in the hospital. Moreover, they reported that they have increased their use of disinfectants and personal protective equipment since the emergence of the pandemic. Moreover, the majority of medical students reported that they feel more stressed after shifting to online classes. Medical students also reported that they would be willing to go back to on-campus classes.This study aimed at describing the response of medical students at AUBFM to the COVID-19 pandemic in terms of stress. Limited data exists in the literature concerning the psychological impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on medical students in the middle East. Medical students reported that they feel more stressed and nervous during their clinical rotations and after the shift to online education, affecting their academic and social life. Further studies using a larger sample size are needed. © Copyright 2021 the Author(s). Published by Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc
From the Tower of Babel to the Ladder of Jacob: Claude Imbert Reading Merleau-Ponty
No full text Claude Imbert often declares that the activity of philosophy now needs to be in line with the teachings of anthropology. In her book Maurice Merleau-Ponty, the very fact that the last course of the author of Phenomenology of Perception, questioning ‘The Possibility of Philosophy’, sketched out ‘the anthropological outline of an intellectual activity unburdened by any a priori’ [les contours anthropologiques d'un activité intellectuelle délestée de tout a priori] is considered by her as more evidence for such a necessity. My contribution explores the meaning of Claude Imbert's affirmation that today the possibility of philosophy is deeply connected with anthropological knowledge. It will, in particular, confront such an affirmation with the debate among African philosophers, concerning the relationship between philosophical activity and ethnography. </jats:p
