Book La plus belle histoire du langage

Download or read book La plus belle histoire du langage written by Pascal G. Picq and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il nous est indispensable pour organiser nos pensées, partager nos idées, communiquer, aimer, rêver peut-être. Le langage est assurément le propre de l'homme, une aptitude si naturelle que nous en oublions combien elle est exceptionnelle. Chaque être humain naît apte à parler, mais il lui faut pourtant apprendre à le faire. Quel bricolage de l'évolution a conduit, un jour, dans la nuit des temps, à l'apparition du langage ? Comment s'exprimaient nos ancêtres ? Y avait-il autrefois une langue unique, universelle ? Pourquoi les langues se sont-elles ensuite diversifiées sur la planète ? Comment chaque bébé humain ré-apprend-il à parler, comment reconnaît-il les mots, que se passe-t-il dans son cerveau ? Les stupéfiantes découvertes réalisées par les anthropologues, les linguistes et les neuro-biologistes permettent aujourd'hui de suivre la piste du langage depuis les tout premiers fossiles. Trois grands chercheurs se passent ici le relais pour raconter, dans un dialogue accessible à tous l'une des plus belles de nos histoires, et sans doute la plus singulière.

  • Author : Anouk Barberousse
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2018-06-28
  • ISBN : 0190690666
  • Pages : 769 pages

Download or read book The Philosophy of Science written by Anouk Barberousse and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-06-28 with total page 769 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophy of science studies the methods, theories, and concepts used by scientists. It mainly developed as a field in its own right during the twentieth century and is now a diversified and lively research area. This book surveys the current state of the discipline by focusing on central themes like confirmation of scientific hypotheses, scientific explanation, causality, the relationship between science and metaphysics, scientific change, the relationship between philosophy of science and science studies, the role of theories and models, unity of science. These themes define general philosophy of science. The book also presents sub-disciplines in the philosophy of science dealing with the main sciences: logic, mathematics, physics, biology, medicine, cognitive science, linguistics, social sciences, and economics. While it is common to address the specific philosophical problems raised by physics and biology in such a book, the place assigned to the philosophy of special sciences is much more unusual. Most authors collaborate on a regular basis in their research or teaching and share a common vision of philosophy of science and its place within philosophy and academia in general. The chapters have been written in close accordance with the three editors, thus achieving strong unity of style and tone.

  • Publisher : John Wiley & Sons
  • Release : 2021-04-01

  • Pages : 210 pages

Download or read book The Trace Odyssey 1 written by Beatrice Galinon-Melenec and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-04-01 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether it is to look to the past in search of their origins, analyze their present activity, particularly digital, or to think about the effects of their actions on the future, 21st century humans regularly question their traces. Collective questions and technical progress offer new resources which, in turn, raise the problems of traces. In order to reveal the difficulties posed by the unanalyzed trace, this book proposes a journey through different contexts. Along the way, intellectuals (including Bateson, Barthes, Bourdieu, Derrida, Goffman, Peirce, Ricoeur, Varela, Thompson, Watsuji and Watzlawick) and trace professionals (such as police officers or computer scientists) shed light on the background to this veritable odyssey. This didactic book presents a contemporary exploration of the fundamental nature of the trace via the new French paradigm of the Ichnos-Anthropos (Homme-trace) and its corollary, the corps-trace.

Book Rethinking African Cultural Production

Download or read book Rethinking African Cultural Production written by Kenneth W. Harrow and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2015-05-29 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frieda Ekotto, Kenneth W. Harrow, and an international group of scholars set forth new understandings of the conditions of contemporary African cultural production in this forward-looking volume. Arguing that it is impossible to understand African cultural productions without knowledge of the structures of production, distribution, and reception that surround them, the essays grapple with the shifting notion of what "African" means when many African authors and filmmakers no longer live or work in Africa. While the arts continue to flourish in Africa, addressing questions about marginalization, what is center and what periphery, what traditional or conservative, and what progressive or modern requires an expansive view of creative production.

Book Le Fran  ais

Download or read book Le Fran ais written by R. Anthony Lodge and published by Fayard. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comment s'est formée la langue qu'on nous enseigne à l'école? Pour quelles raisons le dialecte dont elle est issue a-t-il fini par s'imposer aux autres, à se standardiser d'une façon aussi stricte? Pourquoi investissons-nous tant de passion dans la langue nationale? Pour comprendre la singularité française, Anthony Lodge a entrepris de raconter l'histoire du français depuis ses origines gauloises jusqu'à nos jours. Tout commence avec la latinisation de la Gaule, suivie, sous l'influence des invasions barbares du Ve siècle, de la formation des langues gallo-romaines (comme l'occitan et le picard), chaque région réalisant une synthèse originale. Ce sera finalement la langue du roi qui l'emporta: Paris imposera ses normes à une province tout à la fois fascinée et exaspérée par la " belle langue " aux XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles. Plus tard, avec la Révolution, le français deviendra le symbole de l'unité nationale puis, sous la IIIe République, l'expression du génie français. Mais l'histoire n'a pas pris congé pour autant, et le français est toujours le lieu d'une tension permanente. C'est ainsi que l'usage connaît d'importantes divergences selon le sexe, la région, l'âge, la classe sociale. Quant à la rigidité de la langue écrite, elle a aujourd'hui pour corollaire l'éclatement de la langue parlée, refuge de l'inventivité sociale et culturelle. Que nous réservent les temps nouveaux? Cette superbe fresque de notre histoire, politique autant que linguistique, est enrichie de nombreuses citations de textes anciens, modernes ou contemporains et d'une cartographie originale. R. Anthony Lodge est professeur de français à l'université de Saint-Andrews, en Grande-Bretagne. Il a consacré ses principaux ouvrages à l'étude de la langue française et de l'occitan au Moyen Age.

Book Rape and Writing in the Heptam  ron of Marguerite de Navarre

Download or read book Rape and Writing in the Heptam ron of Marguerite de Navarre written by Patricia Francis Cholakian and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marguerite de Navarre (1492–1549), the sister of the French king François I, composed the Heptaméron as a complex collection of seventy-two novellas, creating one of the first examples of realistic, psychological fiction in French literature. These novellas, framed by debates among ten storytellers, all noble lords and ladies, reveal the author’s desire to depart from the purely masculine voice of the age. Cholakian contends that this Renaissance text is characterized by feminine writing. She reads the text as the product of the author’s personal experience. Beginning her study with the rape narrative in the autobiographical novella 4, she examines how the Heptaméron interacts with male literary traditions and narrative conventions about gender relations. She analyzes such words as rape, and honor, noting how they are defined differently by men and women and how these differences in perception affect the development of both plot and character.

Book Le langage ou l   origine de l   intelligence humaine

Download or read book Le langage ou l origine de l intelligence humaine written by Louis Létourneau and published by Editions du Panthéon. This book was released on 2023-06-27 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Découvrez une vision unique de l’histoire du langage, bien différente de celle qui est traditionnellement enseignée. L’auteur démontre avec rigueur et passion que le langage est la plus grande invention humaine. Moteur de la progression continue de la culture, le langage transforme par son usage l’environnement social et crée la conscience de soi. Il est l’organe indispensable de la transmission des apprentissages, des expériences, des mythes et traditions, et constitue le socle universel de toute forme de communication. Regarder autrement pour s’émanciper des schémas de pensées, glaner les réponses au fil de ses études, toute la pensée et le travail de Louis Létourneau sont fondés sur une insatiable et saine curiosité. Une vie professionnelle variée, riche en expériences humaines, est d’ailleurs le reflet fidèle de cette ferveur à comprendre sans rien éluder. L’auteur nous invite à participer à cette formidable odyssée culturelle, linguistique et sociale en explorant notre compréhension du genre humain et du monde auquel nous appartenons.
