    Pratiques sociales et langue(s) anglaise(s)

    No full text
    Les cinq articles de ce bouquet proposent une approche sociale de l'objet langue anglaise en multipliant les méthodes d'analyse, les questions posées et les objectifs méthodologiques. Ainsi, alors que le premier article de Kevin Petit Cahill (Université de Clermont-Auvergne) étudie les discours de deux hommes politiques irlandais du début de XXe siècle, celui de Célia Atzeni (Université Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne) observe l'apparition d'un nouveau terme dans une institution internationale et le travail de Marc-Philippe Brunet (Université Toulouse-Jean Jaurès) approche l'insécurité linguistique dans une état américain. Selon une perspective différente, la contribution de Corentin Vialar, Camille Debras et Iris Eshkol-Taravelle (Université Paris Nanterre) étudie l'emploi de termes anglais dans un corpus francophone d'annonces d'emploi. Enfin, le texte de Cameron Moran (E.N.S. Lyon) et Carmelo Alessandro Basile (Université Paris Cité) se tourne vers des considérations plus méthodologiques et interrogent la tension entre observation et expérimentation dans les études linguistiques

    Le geste de Cézanne signe la victoirede la syntaxe sur la morphologie. By way of introduction, let me just say that William Wilson is alive and well and 56 years old and lives in Manhattan and teaches English at Queens College; that his Ph. D. from Yale was on Chaucer; that he is also an art critic and that his interest in philosophy is a long-standing one. His stories were published in 1977 by Ecco Press; he is the author of a novel, Birthplace: moving into nearness, put out in 1982 by North..

    “Appropriateness” in foreign language acquisition and use: some theoretical, methodological and ethical considerations

    No full text
    In this contribution, I focus on the concept of “appropriateness” in the usage, the learning and the teaching of foreign languages. Using a participant-based emic perspective, I investigate multilinguals’ perceptions of appropriateness in their foreign languages. Referring to the existing literature, and using previously unpublished material collected through a web questionnaire (Dewaele and Pavlenko 2001–2003), I will show that multilinguals develop their judgements of appropriateness, a crucial aspect of sociopragmatic and sociocultural competence, as part of their socialisation in a new language/culture. However, their ability to judge appropriateness accurately does not imply that they will always act “appropriately”. Indeed, the presence of conflicting norms in their other languages may contribute to conscious or unconscious divergence from the “appropriate” norm in a particular language. Some implications for foreign language teaching will be considered

    Hidden mutualities : Faustian themes in the postcolonial

    No full text
    Hidden mutualities link the work of major postcolonial writers with Marlowe's drama of the Faustian pact - the manipulation of the material world in exchange for the soul - written as the 'scientific' world view was emerging which accompanied the imperial expansion of Europe and has determined the economic and social structures of the colonial and post-colonial world. This comparative study brings together researches in widely different fields to show how Doctor Faustus reflects a Gnostic / Hermetic tradition marginalized within the dominant European power structures. It shows initially how these ideas were crystallized by Ficino and Pico from the available texts of the Corpus Hermeticum, and how they relate to what has become known about Gnosticism and Simon Magus. Combined with the alchemical and cabalistic traditions they form a basis for the study of Renaissance 'Magus' figures such as Trithemius, Reuchlin, Agrippa, Paracelsus or Dee, who are reflected in Faust and in Shakespeare's Prospero in The Tempest. The second part investigates the dual legacy of the Magus. A counterpoint between a law-governed objective material world and an occult visionary pursuit of the divine potential of the human imagination, in which the Gnostic / Hermetic tradition ironically became marginalized by the technological science it had inspired, is traced through the examples of Kepler, Fludd, Newton, Blake, Kipling, Crowley, Yeats, Pauli and Jung. In the third part, textual analysis reveals how attention to these Faustian themes opens new critical perspectives in appreciating the works of postcolonial writers, in particular Dimetos by Athol Fugard, Disappearance by David Dabydeen, Omeros by Derek Walcott, and the novels of Wilson Harris, all of which stress the importance of the creative imagination over mimesis

    No full text
    In this chapter Jean-Marc and Beverley will share their experiences of working with mixed methods in an under-researched area. As we shall see, her interest in larger sampling groups introduced her to some of the advantages of quantitative research. Together with Jean-Marc, who expands on the methods in detail in this chapter, Beverley was able to research multilingual therapy from several angles

    Scotland's natural treasures - an illustrated ecosystem services map

    No full text
    Scotland is packed with natural treasures that provide endless inspiration, excitement, and enjoyment as well as supporting much of our economy. These benefits we get from nature sometimes referred to as ecosystem services, that are provided by Scotland's natural capital. This map provides a rich picture of many of these ecosystem services and is accompanied by a legend that explains different categories of benefits. The map - and the illustrated ecosystem services within the map - can be used for illustration purposes and as an informative educational resource. The illustration was created by Sara Gelfgren from Scriberia as outreach material for the European Union FP7 project OPERAs (http://www.operas-project.eu) based on Marc Metzger's ideas and valuable input from Kathleen Allen, Vanessa Burton, Archie Crofton, Martina Metzger and members of the Ecosystem Services Community Scotland.The map and legend are included as .pdf, .jpg, .svg and Adobe Illustrated .ai files. Individual map elements are numbered are described in NaturalTreasuresScotlandLegend.pdf
