TRACES OF THE NOBLE SAVAGE MYTH IN THE TALE “AMANDINE OR THE TWO GARDENS”
No full textMichel Tournier, yapıtlarındaki mitsel gönderimlerin zenginliğiyle tanınır ve mitlerin yeniden yorumlanmasında örnek teşkil eden yazarlar arasındadır. İlk öykü kitabı olan Çalı Horozu’nda da birçok mite gönderim yapar. Çocuk izleği yazarın yazınında önemli bir yer tuttuğundan, bu yapıtında birden fazla öykünün kahramanı çocuktur. Amandine ya da İki Bahçe adlı öykünün kahramanı da bir kız çocuğudur ve yazar bu yapıtında, bir kız çocuğunun doğal yaşamla karşılaşma serüvenini anlatır. Çocuk kahramanının gözünden uygar toplum ve doğal ortamı betimler. Bu betimlemeler yapılırken yazar, modern dünyadaki, başta eğitim olmak üzere, yanlış gördüğü doğruları eleştirir. Estetik olarak daha güzel bir ortamda bulunmasına karşın, bir çocuğun doğal ortamda daha mutlu olduğunu belirtir. Bu yapıtta yazar, “iyi vahşi”mitinde anlatılan öz yeterliliğe sahip insan örneğindeki gibi, çocukların yetiştirilmesi gerektiğini ve insanların kendi cennetlerini aramasının önündeki engellerin kalkması gerektiğini salık verir. Dahası, Tournier için cennet olabilecek yerler uygar toplumun dışında kalan bir uzamda olabilir. Amandine, çocukların kuşatıldığı yapay ortamlardan uzaklaşma isteğini ve doğal bir ortamda daha mutlu olduklarını ortaya koyan bir figürdür. Bu yolculuktan bahsederken, Tournier her ne kadar bir çocuğun ergenliğe geçişini anlatsa da, iyi vahşi mitik izlekleri yardımıyla da bu yolculuğun daha iyi nasıl olabileceğine ışık tutar. Bu çalışmada, yapıttaki iyi vahşi mitini mit eleştirisi yaklaşımı ile incelemeyi amaçlıyoruz.Michel Tournier, known for the rich mythical references in his works, is an author who serves as a model for reinterpreting the myths. In his first tale book The Fetishist, he refers to several myths. As the theme of child holds a significant place in his literature, there are few children as heroes in this book. The hero of Amandine or the two gardens is a female child and the author presents the adventure of this girl, encountering with wild nature. He describes the modern society and wild nature from this female child’s perspective. While making these descriptions, the author firstly criticizes modern education and then truths that turn out to be wrong. Even if a child lives in aesthetically nice places, s/he feels happier in wild nature. In this work, the author advises to raise children as autonomous beings as it is explained in the noble savage myth and to remove obstacles in order to encourage them to find their heavens. Moreover, heaven can take place where there is no modern civilization. Amandine is a figure for all children who desire going away from artificial environments and who are happier in wild nature. Although Tournier explains the process of a child’s entrance into puberty, he also enlightens by showing how this process would be better by using noble savage mythemes. In this regard, this study aims to examine the noble savage in this tale in the light of myth criticism

Végétarismes pluriels et déprise carniste. Approche philosophique.
No full textInternational audienceThe book, titled "Plural Vegetarisms and Carnist Disengagement: A Philosophical Approach," addresses the marginalization of vegetarian practices in Western discussions concerning ecological and political issues. Author Amandine Andruchiw argues that informed and convivial vegetarian practices offer promising avenues for advancing social justice and achieving better consideration for all living beings, both human and non-human. The philosophical analysis explores how vegetarianism confronts the traditional concept of "good eating," which places meat at its symbolic, physical, and physiological center. By questioning the narratives (real and fictional) that surround meat consumption, the book calls for a serious re-evaluation of these dietary choices. It ultimately advocates for a fundamental paradigm shift—a "carnist disengagement"—to move towards a more just and sustainable common world from an animal, social, and environmental perspective.La question du végétarisme est souvent marginalisée, raillée, voire invisibilisée dans les discussions autour des enjeux écologiques et politiques auxquels sont confrontés nos sociétés occidentales. Pourtant, es pratiques végétariennes éclairées et conviviales semblent proposer des avancées intéressantes vers davantage de justice sociale, une meilleure prise en compte du vivant dans son ensemble, et des individus humains et non humains en particulier. Pourquoi alors tant de mépris? Il est vrai qu'en révélant que la viande n'est pas l'alpha et l'oméga de nos assiettes, les pratiques végétariennes viennent heurter notre conception traditionnelle de la "bonne alimentation", où la viande doit être au centre, à la fois sur le plan symboliques comme physique et physiologique. Mais que veut dire consommer ou ne pas consommer de la viande à la fois dans nos repas quotidiens, mais aussi dans les récits réels ou fictifs qui les entourent? Quelles représentations véhiculent ces narrations et comment influencent-elles nos choix alimentaires? Quels changements ou continuités permettent-ils? Il est désormais temps de prendre ces questions au sérieux, d'entrer en déprise carniste, comme on entre en révolution, pour changer de paradigme et faire advenir un monde commun plus juste du point de vue animal, social et environnemental
Le trésor des rois cam. Nouvelles hypothèses sur son dépôt de Lavang et ses manuscrits
No full textThis article begins with a summary of the extant data relating to the discovery of caches of so-called ‘ Royal Cham treasure’ (from the end of the 19th century to 1959) and it ends with a presentation of new data concerning the fate of part of this treasure. In addition, the author has standardized and updated the toponyms of villages in charge of safekeeping the treasure, and has located and marked most of the villages on a map. The author underlines the importance of the Lavang depot and of the manuscripts it contains, which fortunately have been preserved. From the analysis of these texts, it appears that they were documents written at a local level in order to provide data for the writing of more elaborate administrative documents, perhaps at a national, Vietnamese level. They were, therefore, probably not intended for long-term archiving. Consequently, contrary to what has previously been thought, the Lavang depot was probably not meant to be a secure place to keep Cham archives away from the Vietnamese when Vietnam was annexing ancient Pāṇḍuraṅga. It was most likely just a temporary storage place, where these documents were kept until the data they contained had been put to use.Cet article rassemble les données éparses concernant la découverte des dépôts du trésor des rois cam (de la fin du XIXe siècle à 1959) et les complète avec les données récentes relatives au devenir d’une partie du trésor. Cette synthèse est accompagnée d’une normalisation et d’une actualisation des toponymes des villages qui étaient chargés de la garde des dépôts du trésor et d’une carte où beaucoup de ces villages sont localisés. L’auteur souligne la singularité du dépôt de Lavang dont les manuscrits ont, par chance, été sauvegardés. Leur analyse montre qu’il s’agit d’archives administratives rédigées au niveau local, qui devaient servir à l’élaboration de documents plus exhaustifs, peut-être des documents nationaux, vietnamiens, et qui n’étaient pas destinées à un archivage de longue durée. Cette interprétation permet à l’auteur de proposer que le dépôt de Lavang n’a pas servi, comme on le pensait jusqu’alors, d’abri afin de soustraire les archives aux Việt au moment où l’ancien Pāṇḍuraṅga était annexé par le Việt Nam, mais de lieu habituel de conservation temporaire de ces documents-outils.Lepoutre Amandine.

Effect of anticipation on visceral pain induced by rectal distension in quiescent Crohn’s disease : a fMRI study
No full textLa maladie de Crohn est caractérisée par l'alternance de phases de rémission et de poussées d'inflammation intestinale, de survenue imprévisible. L'objectif de la thèse était d'étudier l'effet, en terme d'activité cérébrale (IRMf), de l'incertitude dans l'anticipation de la survenue d'une douleur viscérale dans la MC en rémission. Les résultats majeurs montrent que dans la MC, cette phase est associée à une hyperactivation significative, par rapport au sujet sain, du cortex cingulaire antérieur et postérieur, de l'insula, du thalamus et de l'amygdale. Il s'agit de régions clés dans la gestion sensorielle, cognitive et émotionnelle de la douleur. En conclusion, la MC est associée à une hyperréactivité cérébrale liée au caractère incertain de la survenue d'une douleur viscérale. Ceci peut expliquer une plus grande vulnérabilité des patients face aux effets du stress sur leurs symptômes et le cours de leur maladie et l'efficacité des thérapies cognitivo-comportementales.Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic recurring inflammatory bowel disease, with unpredictable recurrence of flares; this unpredictability leads to great anticipatory anxiety and stress. The aim of this thesis was to study the effect, in terms of brain activity (fMRI), of uncertainty in the anticipation of visceral pain in quiescent CD. Le main results show that in CD, uncertainty is associated with hyperactivity in the anterior and posterior cingulate cortex, insula, thalamus and amygdala. These are key regions in the regulation of sensory, cognitive and emotional aspects of pain. In conclusion, CD comprises excessive cerebral reactivity linked to the uncertain character of the occurrence of visceral pain. This might account for the greater vulnerability of CD patients towards the effects of stress on their symptoms and the course of their disease, as well as the efficacy of behavioral therapies that aim at modifying the activity of limbic structures

De la perte à la réédification du sens dans "Les blessures du silence" de Natacha Calestrémé
No full textThe author was able to transform the story of the disappearance of Amandine Moulin, which embodied the loss of the meaning of life, in a work of analysis and a thoughtful prospecting. In fact, working on the reconstruction of meaning leads her to boldly explain the mechanism of destruction following the influence of manipulation and narcissistic perversion. We will therefore try to demonstrate that the motif of loss in this novel outlines the path of an individuation of the self, considering that Amandine will eventually be mature and will recover her missing part of soul. We will first highlight the great moments of this plural loss experienced by the narrator and the other characters. Then, we will deepen the different dimensions of this loss of meaning and trace the course of individuation as explained by the C.G. Jung.The author was able to transform the story of the disappearance of Amandine Moulin, which embodied the loss of the meaning of life, in a work of analysis and a thoughtful prospecting.

Interaction of metal oxides with biomolecules, 2014
No full textCurrent methods utilized for the cleanup of drinking water primarily involve the use of chemical oxidants (e.g. chlorine, chlorine dioxide, ozone) to remove harmful bacteria and other pathogens. These processes create a number of disinfection by products (DBPs) that are potent toxins including halonitro-methanes and halo-acetic acids. In our research, we sought to examine the ability of supported metal oxides to accomplish disinfection without the production of toxic DBPs. In an effort to examine the interaction of bio-molecules with metal oxides surfaces, our group used Fourier transform infrared attenuated total reflectance (FT-IR/ATR) spectroscopy as well as Raman spectroscopy. We have mainly developed FT-IR/ATR techniques to examine the formation of bio-films on metal oxide surfaces in aqueous solution. Our technique involved the preparation of a thin layer of the oxide powder examined on the surface of the ATR crystal. Subsequent exposure of the film to bio-molecules and adsorption of the bio-molecules onto the surface was monitored through the infrared absorption of the biomolecules
The potential of Jewish tourism in Portugal
No full textI have already shared some thoughts on the participation of several small cities of Portugal in a Judaism touristic itinerary. The last week of April 2020, despite the focus of the news on the management of the spread of the coronavirus disease, Publico published this article, on the sustainability of Jewish tourism! Paulo Mendes Pinto, a historian specialised in religions, and based at Universidade Lusófona, is the author of this piece. What stroke me in the article, is that Mend..
