Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Livre accompagné d'un DVD ! Celui qui apprend une langue étrangère ne discrimine pas certains sons de cette langue lorsque ces sons n’existent pas dans sa langue maternelle. Si le candidat à l’apprentissage de notre langue n’entend pas certains sons de celle-ci, il est donc inutile de lui répéter trente-six fois la même chose, mais indispensable de procéder autrement. L’auteure montre l’importance fondamentale du travail de la prosodie pour aborder la langue différemment...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’enseignement du français comme langue seconde auprès des élèves nouvellement arrivés constitue désormais une dimension reconnue dans les apprentissages du français à l’École. Si la connaissance des publics s’est affinée, si les dispositifs d’accueil sont mieux établis, en revanche les objectifs et pratiques d’apprentissage dans la diversité des compétences attendues demandent à être mieux décrits, notamment en relation avec le niveau des élèves à leur arrivée, dans la maîtrise de l’écrit, comme dans les autres domaines des savoirs scolaires. L’ouvrage s’efforce sur toutes ces questions d’apporter les réponses nécessaires, dans une pédagogie du français originale, selon une mise en forme et des progressions adaptées à la variété des publics accueillis.

This book was released on 2019-04-16 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: « Le français, une langue pour réussir », c'est un sujet qui peut surprendre et apparaît comme un paradoxe à l'heure où les échanges européens ou mondiaux imposent le partage des langues sous la domination de l'anglais, c'est un sujet dont le titre résonne comme une question au moment où se développent les communications informatiques, visuelles ou orales qui semblent introduire un langage nouveau, c'est un sujet qui, finalement, s'impose comme un défi : comment la maîtrise de la langue, dans un contexte socio-économique difficile, pourrait-elle permettre la réussite personnelle, sociale ou artistique ? La langue française est-elle bien placée pour cela, en France et dans la Francophonie ? Ce sont les questions que se sont posées les auteurs de cet ouvrage, enseignants, chercheurs, hommes politiques, acteurs du monde économique et social, journalistes, représentants des institutions qui ont participé aux communications, tables rondes, séminaires et débats, sous la présidence de madame Danièle Sallenave, de l'Académie française. Après avoir étudié l'expansion du français dans l'histoire et mesuré ses enjeux contemporains, ils se sont attachés à montrer comment, par la maîtrise de la langue, le français peut devenir un atout pour la vie personnelle, un moyen d'insertion sociale et un facteur de réussite artistique. Véritable réflexion sur les enjeux sociaux et humains des pratiques de la langue française, voilà bien l'escale sans mirages, réaliste et constructive, dans le temps et l'espace, que propose cette sixième étape du voyage au long cours que constituent les Lyriades renouvelées de la langue française.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Catholic Origins of Quebec's Quiet Revolution challenges a versionof history central to modern Quebec's understanding of itself: that theQuiet Revolution began in the 1960s as a secular vision of state andsociety which rapidly displaced an obsolete, clericalized Catholicism.Michael Gauvreau argues that organizations such as Catholic youthmovements played a central role in formulating the Personalist Catholicideology that underlay the Quiet Revolution and that ordinaryQuebecers experienced the Quiet Revolution primarily through a seriesof transformations in the expression of their Catholic identity.

Download or read book Aller s Retour s written by Loïc Guyon and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03-17 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the eighteenth century was the age of reason and enlightenment, the nineteenth century was undeniably the age of movement. This tumultuous period in French history bore witness to the rise and fall of countless political movements, from revolutions and “coups d’état”, to popular protests and the first workers’ strikes. It was an age of economic movements as France embraced the new world of finance and banking, and underwent its own industrial revolution. Social mobility increased as a dynamic commercial bourgeoisie began to challenge the system of aristocratic privilege that neither the 1789 Revolution nor the Napoleonic Empire had dismantled entirely. The era was one of artistic ferment, as Romanticism gave way to Realism, Naturalism, Impressionism, and Symbolism. Intellectual and philosophical movements, from Liberalism to Saint-Simonianism, sought both to reconcile the country with its past and construct the framework for a progressive, more harmonious future. Through seventeen thematic essays, Aller(s)-Retour(s) seeks to understand nineteenth-century France as a society in perpetual motion. Recognising the instability that is key to the very concept of movement, this volume explores how the intellectual shifts and cross-currents of the nineteenth century responded to, and impacted upon, each other. Finally, it asks why questions of motion and movement dominated this period, as every sphere of French life confronted its own extremes of progress and renewal, stagnancy and regression.

Download or read book Linguistic Purism written by Olivia Walsh and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2016-08-25 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book represents the first in-depth, comparative investigation of linguistic purism in modern French. It investigates the relative prevalence of purist ideology in France and Quebec. Both experience influence from English and have similar language legislation, but they differ in their social, political and economic history. Three different levels of society are examined (official, group and individual), allowing a comparison of the ‘voice from above’ and the ‘voice from below’. This is a key element in recent discussions of language planning but is rarely provided in studies of French. The study is also the first to apply to empirical data Thomas’s widely cited theoretical framework for describing linguistic purism (1991), and has evaluated and refined this, enhancing the theoretical underpinnings of the field. The book will be of interest not only to French scholars and sociolinguists, but also to scholars of language planning, language policy and language ideologies in all languages.

Download or read book Desired Language written by Francesc Feliu and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2023-01-15 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National linguistic ideology has been at the base of most historical processes that –whether they are complete or not – have brought us to the current reality: a world of languages that represent, with greater or lesser exactitude, the diversity – and convergences – of human groups. Various of today’s thinkers have predicted the decline or even the end of national ideologies. In the area of language, postmodernism would make the linguistic affiliation of the community individuals irrelevant, de-ideologise language use, and extend plurilingualism and language alternation in association with a new distribution of (physical or functional) spaces of linguistic practice. But is this true everywhere? Are languages now nowhere the core of collective identity? Or are we witnessing a distinction between languages that, because of their magnitude, status, strategic position, etc., can continue to exercise the function of national languages and languages that have to renounce this function? Has national linguistic ideology really ceased to make sense? What other strategies should the historic language of a given geographic area employ if it wants to continue forming part of the life of the community that is set up there? What kinds of languages are desired by politicians, intellectuals and philologists? This book aims to bring some thoughts about these questions.

Download or read book The Symbolist Movement in the Literature of European Languages written by Anna Balakian and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1984-01-01 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edited by Anna Balakian, this volume marks the first attempt to discuss Symbolism in a full range of the literatures written in the European languages. The scope of these analyses, which explore Latin America, Scandinavia, Russia, Poland, Hungary, Serbia, Czechoslovakia, and Bulgaria as well as West European literatures, continues to make the volume a valuable reference today. As René Wellek suggests in his historiographic contribution, the fifty-one contributors not only make us think afresh about individual authors who are “giants,” but also draw us to reassess schools and movements in their local as well as international contexts. Reviewers comment that this “copious and intelligently structured” anthology, divided into eight parts, traces the conceptual bases and emergence of an international Symbolist movement, showing the spread of Symbolism to other national literatures from French sources, as well as the symbiotic transformations of Symbolism through appropriation and amalgamation with local literary trends. Several chapters deal with the relationships between literature and the other arts, pointing to Symbolism at work in painting, music, and theatre. Other chapters on the psychological aspects of the Symbolist method connect in interesting ways to a vision of metaphor and myth as virtually musical notation and an experimental emphasis on the play afforded by gaps between words. The volume is “a major contribution” to “the most significant exponents” and “essential themes” of Symbolism. The theoretical, historical, and typological sections of the volume help explain why the impact of this important movement of the fin-de-siècle is still felt today.

Download or read book Discourses on Nations and Identities written by Daniel Syrovy and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-01-18 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The third volume of the collected papers of the ICLA congress "The Many Languages of Comparative Literature" includes contributions that focus on the interplay between concepts of nation, national languages, and individual as well as collective identities. Because all literary communication happens within different kinds of power structures - linguistic, economic, political -, it often results in fascinating forms of hybridity. In the first of four thematic chapters, the papers investigate some of the ways in which discourses can establish modes of thinking, or how discourses are in turn controlled by active linguistic interventions, whether in the context of the patriarchy, war, colonialism, or political factions. The second thematic block is predominantly concerned with hybridity as an aspect of modern cultural identity, and the cultural and linguistic dimensions of domestic life and in society at large. Closely related, a third series of papers focuses on writers and texts analysed from the vantage points of exile and exophony, as well as theoretical contributions to issues of terminology and what it means to talk about transcultural phenomena. Finally, a group of papers sheds light on more overtly violent power structures, mechanisms of exclusion, Totalitarianism, torture, and censorship, but also resistance to these forms of oppression. In addition to these chapters, the volume also collects a number of thematically related group sections from the ICLA congress, preserving their original context.
