Download or read book Declensions of the Self written by Jean-Jacques Defert and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-10-02 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is a collective reflection on the modern self as a narrative. Modernity as a metamorphic conglomeration of permeating discourses, new practices and institutional forms, a historical unfolding of centrifugal and centripetal discursive dynamics of regulation and normalization offers limitless grounds for a critical investigation. The modern self, both as the revelation of the inner self and as a reflection of the collective, arises from the dialogical interplay within the intersubjective communicative space of social discourse. The bestiary proposed in this series of articles attempts to rethink the spectacle consisting of modern dichotomies by which the self is declined along ontological, metaphysical, and ethical premises: the real and the ideal, the said and the unsaid, the rational and the irrational, the bound and the free, the familiar and the exotic, the universal and the particular, self and world. The reader is therefore encouraged to engage in a multiple reading of the articles presented in this collection. As individual scholarly pieces of inquiry, these articles provide thoughtful insights into the inexhaustible topic of modernity and the modern subject–they tell stories of the past, the present, and of a prospective future. As academic works, however, they also reflect and/or unsettle disciplinary paradigms and scholarly practices, from which they acquire legitimacy and visibility; they conform, apply, reconfigure and/or experiment with new grounds by borrowing from an eclectic mix of various thinkers, their tools, and their axiomatic propositions that constitute their theoretical and critical apparatus. This exercise is ultimately an introspective journey in which we are placed not only as the spectator–the one who gazes through the bars–but also the spectacle–the beast subject to the gaze–finding itself in a predicament of which the subject, itself, is the architect.
Download or read book Improving Early Literacy Outcomes written by Nic Spaull and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning to read and write for meaning and pleasure are arguably the two most important competences that children acquire in primary school. Yet, in 2019 more than one half of children worldwide do not reach this first rung on the literacy ladder. Improving Early Literacy Outcomes aims to address this head-on, by foregrounding the work of more than 40 researchers, most of them living in, and working on, developing countries. Their contributions illuminate, magnify, and discover anew the importance of improving early reading, through precise alignment of curriculum, teaching, and assessment, and with a special focus on some of the most under-studied countries in the world (e.g., Burkina Faso, Niger, and Senegal). Through probing analyses of research, policy, and practice, the book highlights the common experiences of high aspirations repeatedly confronting harsh realities. Sixteen interconnected chapters cast an ever-vigilant and deflationary eye on the temptation to take an unrealistic approach to early literacy, and also caution against lumping all languages, contexts, and policy-challenges into a single heap. This book provides an indispensable guide to policymakers, practitioners, educators, and academics working towards the realisation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Improving the teaching, learning, and assessment of early grade literacy is key not only to expanding the quality, access, and equity of education, but also to unlocking all the other SDGs, and ultimately to driving development.
Download or read book Comment l enfant devient lecteur written by Gérard Chauveau and published by Retz. This book was released on 2013-04-22 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un ouvrage de fonds qui reste une référence en psychologie de la lecture. Indispensable. Ce livre propose une vision profondément renouvelée et stimulante d'une question à la fois classique et âprement discutée : l'apprentissage de la lecture. Sans rechigner à opérer les mises au point qui s'imposent, l'auteur ne veut pas ajouter à la controverse ; son intention est d'en saisir tous les fils pour mieux la dépasser. Il dégage les apports des trois grands courants de la recherche psycho-cognitive (psycholinguistique, psychologie cognitive et psychologie culturelle) et présente une synthèse inédite qui fait toujours référence en la matière. L'auteur s'appuie sur les résultats des recherches qu'il a menées pour dresser le portrait du bon apprenti lecteur et, par contraste, de l'apprenti lecteur " fragile ". D'une lecture aisée, ce livre s'adresse notamment aux enseignants et aux formateurs d'enseignements de l'école primaire, aux étudiants en master, aux enseignants spécialisés et aux psychologues scolaires, comme à toute personne intéressée par les enjeux de l'apprentissage de la lecture.
Download or read book Comment l enfant devient lecteur written by Gérard Chauveau and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tout d'abord, il montre que la lecture et l'écriture ne peuvent pas être pensées en dehors de l'histoire et du contexte culturel. L'acte de lire n'a pas concerné les mêmes tâches et les mêmes " publics " aux différentes époques historiques. Dans notre histoire scolaire, la définition du lire-écrire par les instructions officielle est passée de la notion de lecture-déchiffrement à celles de lecture-décodage et de lecture-compréhension. L'auteur aborde ensuite les questions de méthode pour étudier ce processus complexe où la culture, langue, ontogenèse se mêlent inextricablement. Ces préliminaires lui permettent d'identifier les processus de la lecture et les compétences psychocognitives mises en jeu par elle. Une carte des différents types de savoir-lire et des différents stades qui les caractérisent est ainsi dessinée ; elle permet aux pédagogues de se repérer dans le maquis des facteurs déterminant l'apprentissage. Enfin, l'auteur s'appuie sur les résultats des recherches qu'il a menées pour dresser le portrait du bon " apprenti lecteur et, par contraste, de l'apprenti lecteur " fragile ". Ce livre s'adresse notamment aux enseignants et aux formateurs d'enseignants de l'école primaire, aux étudiants d'IUFM, aux enseignants spécialisés et aux psychologues scolaires.
Download or read book Science in the Nursery written by Laurence Talairach-Vielmas and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2011-01-18 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection aims to examine the popularisation of science for children in Britain and France from the middle of the eighteenth century to the end of the Victorian period. It compares and contrasts for the first time popular science works published at the same time in the two countries, focusing both on non-fictional and fictional texts. Starting when children’s literature emerged as a genre to the end of the nineteenth century it addresses the ways in which popular science for children engaged with wider debates and issues, concerning such topics as gender or religion. Each individual essays brings home how children’s literature revealed contemporary tensions which professional scientists confronted. The wide range of scientific topics examined, from physics and astronomy to natural history and anthropology, offers a large spectrum of types of popular science works for children.
Download or read book African Christian Theologies and the Impact of the Reformation written by Heinrich Bedford-Strohm and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2017 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the strongest heritages of the Reformation for Christianity was to return to the central role given to the Bible, translated in local dialects. Christianity expanded thanks to the translation of the Bible in vernacular languages worldwide. Most importantly, the people who had been victims of prejudices of race supremacy could now have access to God in their own language, culture, and idioms without intermediaries. It is largely thanks to Bible translations that the majority of those churches in Africa, born of European mission activities, continued to develop positively after the end of the colonial age, and that independent African churches emerged.

Download or read book French Prose in 2000 written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-10-18 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: French Prose in 2000 stems in some important measure from work presented in September 1998 at the International Colloquium on French and Francophone Literature in the 1990’s held at Dalhousie University. A good number of papers given at that time, and since revisited in the light of exchanges, join here certain others specifically written for the purposes of this book. Together they constitute a wide-ranging and modally varied interrogation of the current state of French and francophone prose writing, its multifaceted manners, its richly divergent fascinations, its many theoretical or philosophical groundings. The book thus ceaselessly moves its attention from fictional biography to the roman noir, from the writing of Glissant and Chamoiseau to that of the étonnants voyageurs, from the powerful discourse of women such as Chawaf or Condé, Ernaux or Germain, Sallenave or Kristeva, to that of writers as diverse in their modes as Le Clézio and Quignard, Duras and Renaud Camus. All chapters focus, however, in near-exclusive measure, on the prose production of the last ten or twelve years.
