Repetition: A Process of Destroying the Narrative Unity in Abdelkader Djemais Saison De Pierres
No full textIn Saison de pierres Abdelkader Djemai makes the repetition process one of his principles of composition narrative sequences are repeated repeating themselves thus openly provoking the traditional novel The reader at first glance thinks he is reading the same text but after concentration there are many variations between the two narrative passages By using the repetition process Abdelkader Djemai wants to introduce a new reflex in the reader to test his memory by using his insight and intelligence Repetition allows the author to say and repeat in several copies the same idea the same event the same experience offering a multitude of perspectives and invoking maximum concentratio
The Image of the Ego through the Narration of History in Henry Churchill's Biography of Emir Abdelkader
No full textAbstract: This study aims to highlight the image of Emir Abdelkader in the writings of others, through the book “The Life of the Prince” by Henry Churchill, in which the author explores the details of the life of Emir Abdelkader, and recounts different details of his struggle during the resistance against French colonialism, after his surrender and moving to his voluntary exile, where he stayed there for the end of his life.In addition to providing an overview of the difference in the form of the portrayal of Emir Abdelkader between what is contained in this book and some French colonialist writings. We found that the author presented a more objective picture of the Emir's personality, closer to the reality of objective historical details, and away from the fanaticism of French writers governed by their colonialist inclination. Therefore, this work poses a fundamental question: How was Emir Abdelkader portrayed through his biography in the book The Prince's Life by Henry Churchill? What was the image of Algerians in the shadow of the Emir's life and biographical details during and after the resistance against French colonialism?

Organic radicals: formation, classification, and environmental application
No full textOver the past two centuries, as our industries have boomed and our economies have thrived, air pollution has increasingly troubled us, tugging at our collective conscience. The rise of industries and the combustion of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and natural gas, have released various pollutants into the atmosphere; therefore air pollution is a central concern, particularly in industrial processes. The emission of airborne pollutants, including particulate matter (PM), ground-level ozone, nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide (SO2), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), dioxins, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), carbon monoxide, and heavy metals such as lead, poses serious health hazard. As these pollutants can result in a range of ailments, such as respiratory diseases (e.g., asthma, COPD), cardiovascular issues, neurological disorders, and cancer, it is crucial to prioritize the management of gaseous pollutants. This is critical not only for safeguarding human health but also for preserving air quality, protecting the environment, and addressing the broader concern of climate change. In the context of environmental remediation, numerous technological advancements have been introduced to mitigate the emissions of pollutants originating from different sources, such as industrial and transportation systems. These technologies encompass various approaches, including physical techniques such as adsorption and membrane technology. Additionally, chemical redox processes have been employed to transform pollutants into less hazardous or nontoxic substances via chemical reactions. One of the extensively researched chemical approaches in the realm of air pollution mitigation is the employment of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). It is noteworthy to mention that AOPs also have a well-established history in the field of water and wastewater treatment. This methodology utilizes highly reactive radical species, such as hydroxy radicals (•OH), superoxide radicals (•O2−), and singlet oxygen (1O2), among others. Recently, scientific investigations have shifted their focus toward reactive organic-based radicals, both in the context of water treatment and the removal of air pollutants. This shift is primarily attributed to the enhanced selectivity demonstrated by these specific radical species. This chapter will provide an overview of air pollutants and their removal technologies. Following that, the advanced oxidation processes will be discussed, and their applications in both reactive and stable organic radicals in air pollutant removal will be explored
Recent progress on Z- and S-scheme photocatalysis: mechanistic understanding toward green applications
No full textPhotocatalysis has been widely used to address the environmental issues and energy crises that threaten the future of planet Earth. One of the main drawbacks to developing photocatalysts for practical applications is the electron–hole recombination concept, which seriously hinders the photoreaction rate. To resolve this, heterojunctions with different patterns, including Z and S schemes, showed great potential to enhance photoactivity and thus attracted increasing attention. Herein, we concisely reviewed recent progress in various types of such systems, focusing on the mechanistic understanding of clean energy and environmental applications. The principles of constructions based on optoelectronic properties and semiconducting behavior are comprehensively discussed. The advantages and disadvantages of each system are also considered to make a logical conclusion and inspirational perspectives
Abdelkader Lagtaâ and his conceptual exercises in Poland, 1972-74
No full textThis article focuses on conceptual practices by Moroccan artist Abdelkader Lagtaâ, whose early 1970s work, created as a part of Polish conceptual milieus in Łódź and Warsaw, remains undocumented in art-historical scholarship. The author rediscovers Lagtaâ's practices as part of conceptual strategies in Eastern Europe and discusses his work in relation to Okwui Enwezor's article "Where, What, Who, When: A Few Notes on 'African' Conceptualism." The author argues that while Enwezor and, later, other scholars, including Olu Oguibe and Salah M. Hassan, critique the work by African conceptualists to and through conceptualist strategies prevalent in Africa and the West, Lagtaâ's work was almost entirely situated in the linguistic, performative, new media, and mail art experiments characteristic of Eastern Europe. While the work of conceptual artists from the African continent identified by Enwezor remained on the margins, outside of international and noninstitutional artistic circuits, Lagtaâ's work was an intrinsic part of the early 1970s collective experiments and transnational networks of artistic exchange between Eastern Europe and other geographical regions
De vertaler als (co-)auteur? De Italiaanse vertaling van Abdelkader Benali’s De Langverwachte
No full textThis contribution seeks to analyse the complex and fascinating translation process of Abdelkader Benali’s award-winning novel De Langverwachte (Vassallucci 2003) into Italian. Due to a combination of professional and personal circumstances, Benali gave the Italian translator Claudia Di Palermo the total freedom to edit the novel. For example, the Italian translation, La Lunga Attesa (Fazi 2005), underwent an editing process in which, among other things, the number of chapters was reduced from 58 to 47. In the analysis, the profiles of the author and the translator will first be outlined. Subsequently, the most important reasons for the editing process will be explained on the basis of an interview with the translator. Finally, the four translation strategies are explained by referring to Di Palermo’s personal notes. These are: separation, merging, deletion and addition
Analysing Author Self-citations in Computer Science Publications
No full textIn scientific papers, citations refer to relevant previous work in order to underline the current line of argumentation, compare to other work and/or avoid repetition in writing. Self-citations, e.g. authors citing own previous work might have the same motivation but have also gained negative attention w.r.t. unjustified improvement of scientific performance indicators. Previous studies on self-citations do not provide a detailed analysis in the domain of computer science. In this work, we analyse the prevalence of self-citations in the DBLP, a digital library for computer science. We find, that approx. 10% of all citations are self-citations, while the rates vary with year after publication and the position of the author in the list as well as with the gender of the lead author. Further, we find that C-ranked venues have the highest incoming self-citation rate, while the outgoing rate is stable across all ranks
