Book Pardon my French  La langue fran  aise  un enjeu du XXIe si  cle

Download or read book Pardon my French La langue fran aise un enjeu du XXIe si cle written by BOURGES Hervé and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2014-03-10 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parler de la francophonie, cela peut ressembler à la défense d’un pré carré hérité des empires coloniaux. La question est alors abordée en termes de lutte contre l’omniprésence de l’anglais dans les échanges internationaux et contre le « babélien » qui nous envahit. Hervé Bourges, qui a toujours été aux avant-postes de ce combat culturel, s’attache à parler du français, de cette langue négligée dans les débats scientifiques, dans la chanson et le sport olympique, « massacrée » dans les médias, dans l’administration, les entreprises, les institutions. Après avoir interrogé le passé, décrit le présent, c’est vers l’avenir que l’auteur se tourne en nous faisant découvrir la richesse contemporaine du français dans sa diversité d’expressions et dans la liberté de ton de ses locuteurs, de Québec à Abidjan, de Clermont-Ferrand à New York, d’Alger à Port-au-Prince. Dans un style particulièrement vif, et non sans un humour saillant, l’auteur nous fait partager sa conviction : le français reste au XXIe siècle une langue vivante, porteuse de valeurs universelles, et à ce titre constitue bien un combat à mener, un défi à relever, pour qu’il prenne toute sa place dans un monde de pluralité linguistique. La francophonie représente la communauté internationale de ceux qui ont « le français en partage » (300 millions aujourd’hui, de 600 millions à 1 milliard en 2050). Une communauté francophone qui veut « cultiver ce qui nous unit. Savourer ce qui nous distingue. Combattre ce qui nous divise ». Hervé Bourges, auteur d’une quinzaine d’ouvrages, a occupé de nombreuses fonctions dans l’audiovisuel (directeur de RFI, PDG de TF1 et de France Télévisions, et président du CSA). Ancien directeur de l’information et porte-parole de l’UNESCO, il y fut ambassadeur de France en 1994. Table des matières Avant-propos 1.

Book Quel avenir pour la langue fran  aise

Download or read book Quel avenir pour la langue fran aise written by Jean-Louis Roy and published by Hurtubise Editions HMH. This book was released on 2008 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La mondialisation a transformé l'espace économique mondial. Elle est en voie de transformer l'espace culturel. Mais comment assurer la diversité culturelle et linguistique face aux Etats-Unis, face à la montée de la Chine et de l'Inde qui voudraient imposer leur langue comme langue dominante du XXIème siècle? "La Francophonie est devenue le principal espoir de notre langue, peut-être le seul." Sans la Francophonie, le français serait confiné à la France, la Belgique, la Suisse, aux communautés francophones du Canada et au Québec, plutôt que de regrouper aujourd'hui 68 Etats et plus de 500 millions de locuteurs. Mais, dans cette bataille des langues, sera-t-elle en mesure d'assurer au français une place significative dans le nouvel espace culturel mondial?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twenty-first century is now underway, and it's time to look at France once again as it moves into the new millennium. The current collection of essays explores cultural themes which are different than those in the editors' earlier volume, La France à l'aube du XXIe siècle: Tendances et mutations / France at the Dawn of the Twenty-First Century: Trends and Transformations, published in 2000 (Summa Publications; see Google Book Seach on home page). Among the topics explored in this new volume are the presidential election of 2007, changing dietary habits, the condition of women, environmental policies, the economy, education, social mobility, young people, religion, as well as contemporary music, cinema, regional theater, and literature. Articles on multiculturalism, the position of French in today's world, and France in the European Union also provide the reader with provocative insights. All chapters include extensive references (and web sites) and will be of interest to academics, teachers and students of contemporary French culture, and all Francophiles. For the classroom teacher, additional cultural information and activities will be found on the editors' own home page; this material will be updated on a regular basis, thus facilitating the task of presenting a modern-day France that is continuously changing. - Publisher.

Book Redefining the Real

Download or read book Redefining the Real written by Margaret-Anne Hutton and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2009 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is 'the literary fantastic' and how does it manifest itself in the texts of French and francophone women writers publishing at the close of the twentieth and start of the twenty-first century? What do we mean today when we talk of 'the real' and 'realism'? These are just some of the questions addressed by the papers in this volume which derive from a conference entitled 'The Fantastic in Contemporary Women's Writing in French' held in London in September 2007. This book sets out to refocus through a non-realist lens on the works of high-profile authors (Darrieussecq, Nothomb, Germain, Cixous and NDiaye) and some of their less highly publicised contemporaries. It analyses and mobilises a wide range of both gendered and non-gendered practices and theories of 'the contemporary fantastic' whilst critically interrogating both of the latter terms and their inter-relation.

Book Doubts and Directions in Translation Studies

Download or read book Doubts and Directions in Translation Studies written by Yves Gambier and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like previous collections based on congresses of the European Society of Translation Studies (EST), this volume presents the latest insights and findings in an ever-changing, ever-challenging domain. The twenty-six papers, carefully chosen from about 140 presented at the 4th EST Congress, offer a bird's eye view of the most pressing concerns and most exciting vistas in Translation Studies today. The editors' final choices reflect a focus on quality of approach, originality of topic, and clarity of presentation, and aim at capturing the most salient developments in the contemporary theory, methodology and technology of TS. As always in EST, the themes covered relate to translation as well as interpreting. They include discussion of a broad range of text-types and skopoi, and a diversity of themes, such as translation universals, translation strategies, translation and ideology, perception of translated humor, translation tools, etc. Many of the papers force us to take a fresh look at seemingly well established paradigms and familiar notions, while also making recourse to work being done in other disciplines (Semiotics, Linguistics, Discourse Analysis, Contrastive Studies).

Download or read book Montreal written by Dany Fougères and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2018-04-06 with total page 1505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surrounded by water and located at the heart of a fertile plain, the Island of Montreal has been a crossroads for Indigenous peoples, European settlers, and today's citizens, and an inland port city for the movement of people and goods into and out of North America. Commemorating the city's 375th anniversary, Montreal: The History of a North American City is the definitive, two-volume account of this fascinating metropolis and its storied hinterland. This comprehensive collection of essays, filled with hundreds of illustrations, photographs, and maps, draws on human geography and environmental history to show that while certain distinctive features remain unchanged – Mount Royal, the Lachine Rapids of the Saint Lawrence River – human intervention and urban evolution mean that over time Montrealers have had drastically different experiences and historical understandings. Significant issues such as religion, government, social conditions, the economy, labour, transportation, culture and entertainment, and scientific and technological innovation are treated thematically in innovative and diverse chapters to illuminate how people's lives changed along with the transformation of Montreal. This history of a city in motion presents an entire picture of the changes that have marked the region as it spread from the old city of Ville-Marie into parishes, autonomous towns, boroughs, and suburbs on and off the island. The first volume encompasses the city up to 1930, vividly depicting the lives of First Nations prior to the arrival of Europeans, colonization by the French, and the beginning of British Rule. The crucial roles of waterways, portaging, paths, and trails as the primary means of travelling and trade are first examined before delving into the construction of canals, railways, and the first major roads. Nineteenth-century industrialization created a period of near-total change in Montreal as it became Canada's leading city and witnessed staggering population growth from less than 20,000 people in 1800 to over one million by 1930. The second volume treats the history of Montreal since 1930, the year that the Jacques Cartier Bridge was opened and allowed for the outward expansion of a region, which before had been confined to the island. From the Great Depression and Montreal's role as a munitions manufacturing centre during the Second World War to major cultural events like Expo 67, the twentieth century saw Montreal grow into one of the continent's largest cities, requiring stringent management of infrastructure, public utilities, and transportation. This volume also extensively studies the kinds of political debate with which the region and country still grapple regarding language, nationalism, federalism, and self-determination. Contributors include Philippe Apparicio (INRS), Guy Bellavance (INRS), Laurence Bherer (University of Montreal), Stéphane Castonguay (UQTR), the late Jean-Pierre Collin (INRS), Magda Fahrni (UQAM), the late Jean-Marie Fecteau (UQAM), Dany Fougères (UQAM), Robert Gagnon (UQAM), Danielle Gauvreau (Concordia), Annick Germain (INRS), Janice Harvey (Dawson College), Annie-Claude Labrecque (independent scholar), Yvan Lamonde (McGill), Daniel Latouche (INRS), Roderick MacLeod (independent scholar), Paula Negron-Poblete (University of Montreal), Normand Perron (INRS), Martin Petitclerc (UQAM), Christian Poirier (INRS), Claire Poitras (INRS), Mario Polèse (INRS), Myriam Richard (unaffiliated), Damaris Rose (INRS), Anne-Marie Séguin (INRS), Gilles Sénécal (INRS), Valérie Shaffer (independent scholar), Richard Shearmur (McGill), Sylvie Taschereau (UQTR), Michel Trépanier (INRS), Laurent Turcot (UQTR), Nathalie Vachon (INRS), and Roland Viau (University of Montreal).

Book Claude Duneton  Chroniqueur at Le Figaro

Download or read book Claude Duneton Chroniqueur at Le Figaro written by Mary Munro-Hill and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-26 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Claude Duneton was a French literary figure of note (1935-2012) and a versatile and prolific writer, whose Parler croquant (1973) first brought him public acclaim. He enjoyed most of all the weekly language articles he wrote for Le Figaro littéraire, from 1994 to 2010, when his life as a writer was cruelly cut short by a severe, disabling stroke. When Claude Duneton succeeded Maurice Chapelan (Aristide) as resident chroniqueur du langage at Le Figaro, he was not without experience in the field, having successfully composed such pieces for the women’s magazine Elle during the late 1970s. That period served him well as a preparation for his sixteen years at Le Figaro. The title of his articles, Le plaisir des mots, was perfectly fitting, since his work as chroniqueur brought him the greatest delight and satisfaction, les mots, words, their meaning, their etymology, their often amusing history, their every aspect, being his grande passion.

Book The Oxford Handbook of the French Language

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of the French Language written by Wendy Ayres-Bennett and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024-07-08 with total page 1057 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides the first comprehensive reference work in English on the French language in all its facets. It offers a wide-ranging approach to the rich, varied, and exciting research across multiple subfields, with seven broad thematic sections covering the structures of French; the history of French; axes of variation; French around the world; French in contact with other languages; second language acquisition; and French in literature, culture, arts, and the media. Each chapter presents the state of the art and directs readers to canonical studies and essential works, while also exploring cutting-edge research and outlining future directions. The Oxford Handbook of the French Language serves both as a reference work for people who are curious to know more about the French language and as a starting point for those carrying out new research on the language and its many varieties. It will appeal to undergraduate and graduate students as well as established scholars, whether they are specialists in French linguistics or researchers in a related field looking to learn more about the language. The diversity of frameworks, approaches, and scholars in the volume demonstrates above all the variety, vitality, and vibrancy of work on the French language today.
