    Fouad Laroui, a talented Moroccan author who writes in French and at times Dutch, is an exemplar of the in-between – in fact, the in-between-several-cultures. Like many Moroccans, he is “neither here nor there”. His original work, notable for the author’s dual belonging as well as its highly ironic vein, embodies multiple facets of multiculturalism, which he experienced during his youth at the French “lycée” in Casablanca, his trips to the western world (he now lives in Amsterdam) and through openness to European cultures. His stories in French are enriched with diverse references, resulting in a sort of patchwork – a jumble of words where the French language is present, but it is coloured by other languages and literary reminiscences (Laroui cited in Martin & Drevet 107).This article reflects on the author’s relationship with the French language and culture, by analysing the sense of identity and search for identity of his characters whose connections with France, and the western world, are marked by conflicting feelings, bearing traces of the Maghreb authors’ own sense of being torn. Is French an instrument of oppression or emancipation? The article focuses on two representative works, “Le jour où Malika ne s’est pas mariée” (2009) and “Une année chez les Français” (2010), set against the complex, multilingual backdrop of Morocco as discussed in his essay “Le drame linguistique marocain” (2011).Fouad Laroui, a talented Moroccan author who writes in French and at times Dutch, is an exemplar of the in-between – in fact, the in-between-several-cultures.

    Il volume raccoglie una serie di studi e riflessioni inerenti alla lingua francese, analizzata in un’ottica traduttiva e didattica su un asse binario: francofono e italofono. Dopo una prima sezione tematica dedicata al “français québécois”, la seconda sezione affronta le principali problematiche traduttive in ambito economico e multimediale per poi esaminare, nella terza sezione, alcuni aspetti relativi all’ambito didattico, alla luce dei più recenti approcci e metodologie per l’insegnamento delle lingue straniere

    Questo articolo si propone di mettere in evidenza le implicazioni che l’approccio cognitivo ha in ambito traduttologico. La nostra riflessione sarà incentrata segnatamente sulle difficoltà traduttive inerenti al transfert degli universali linguistici nonché dei concetti “culturellement spécifiques”, con un’attenzione all’uso di metafore e metonimie quale campo d’indagine in cui si manifestano le modalità di percezione proprie di una data cultura, realizzate in specifici modelli lessicali

    Alla luce dello sviluppo delle Scienze Cognitive, il nostro lavoro intende tracciare alcune coordinate di fondo della Linguistica Cognitiva, nuovo approccio linguistico che, adottando una prospettiva olistica, si propone di elaborare teorie linguistiche operative che tengano conto dei meccanismi generali di funzionamento mentale e cerebrale del soggetto parlante, meccanismi cognitivi universali che si applicano al materiale linguistico specifico di ogni lingua
