Download or read book Les avatars jouables des mondes num riques Th ories terrains et t moignages de pratiques interactives written by AMATO Etienne Armand and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2013-09-01 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ces créatures d’images polymorphes que sont les avatars jouables nous font exister dans les mondes numériques des jeux vidéo, et même dans certains sites Web communautaires ou ludiques. Parce qu’elles nous y métamorphosent, elles apparaissent emblématiques des pratiques interactives les plus sophistiquées et troublantes. Toutefois, leurs propriétés et effets, espérés ou redoutés, restent encore à éclairer, ainsi que toutes ces interactions à distance réalisées par avatars interposés, au cœur des simulations audiovisuelles informatiques contemporaines. Ancré en sciences de l’information et de la communication, ce premier ouvrage collectif francophone sur le thème conceptualise l’avatar. Aussi, il bénéficie des apports conjugués de différentes disciplines (philosophie des techniques, psychologie, psychanalyse, sémiologie, ethnologie, sociologie, sciences de la gestion, arts). Par cette pluralité et grâce à de constants allers-retours entre théories et terrains, descriptions et analyses, hypothèses et témoignages, peuvent être articulées toutes les dimensions en jeu : technologiques, physiologiques, interpersonnelles, identitaires, intimes et/ou culturelles.
Download or read book A Writer s Topography written by Jason Herbeck and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-08-25 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Writer’s Topography examines French-Algerian Nobel Prize laureate Albert Camus’s intimate yet often unsettled relationship with natural and human landscapes. Much like the Greek hero Sisyphus about whom he wrote his famous philosophical essay, Camus sustained a deep awareness of and appreciation for what he termed le visage de ce monde—the face of this earth. This wide-ranging collection of essays by Camus scholars from around the world demonstrates to what extent topography is omnipresent in Camus’s life and works. Configurations and contemplations of landscape figure prominently in his fictional works on both a literal and figurative level—from the earliest writings of his youth to his final, unfinished novel, Le Premier Homme. Furthermore, as a core component of the way in which Camus perceived, conceived and expressed the human condition, topography constitutes an over-arching and particularly profound dimension of his personal, public and philosophical thought.

Download or read book Translating Montreal written by Sherry Simon and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2006-10-10 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Translating Montreal follows the trajectories of adventurous cultural translators such as Malcolm Reid, F.R. Scott, and A.M. Klein - pioneers of the 1950s and 1960s - Pierre Anctil, whose translations from Yiddish to French are emblematic of the dramatic reroutings now occurring across the Montreal landscape, and contemporary writer-translators such as Gail Scott, Erin Mouré, Jacques Brault, Michel Garneau, Nicole Brossard, and Emile Ollivier. Simon argues that translation is a dynamic and subtle tool for analysing cultural contact. An original take on cultural relations in the city, Translating Montreal explores the emergence of the "new" Montrealer. No longer "Franco-Québécois," "Anglo-Québécois," "immigrant," or "ethnic," the new Montrealer is a citizen of a mixed and cosmopolitan city.

Download or read book The Nag Hammadi Story 2 vols written by James M. Robinson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-06-05 with total page 1262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nag Hammadi Story is not a history of research in the usual sense of a Forschungsbericht, which would report on the massive amount of scholarship that has been devoted to the content of the Nag Hammadi Codices for more than a half-century. Rather it is a socio-historical narration of just what went on during the thirty-two years from their discovery late in 1945, via their initial trafficking, and then the attempts to monopolize them, until finally, through the intervention of UNESCO, the whole collection of thirteen Codices was published in facsimiles and in English translation, both completed late in 1977.
