Rozan and Matyssek: Are they really that different?
2005
Cet article porte sur la technique de prise de notes lors de l’interpretation consecutive tout en abordant les objectifs du cours de prise de notes, qui ne se limite pas simplement a faire connaitre des symboles et des abreviations. Cette discussion est suivie d’une presentation et d'une comparaison des systemes de prise de notes de Rozan (1956) et de Matyssek (1989) et de leurs principes generaux, afin de demontrer que ces deux ecoles « classiques » ont nombre de points communs bien qu'elles soient frequemment considerees comme etant tres differentes.
The magic of patriarchal oppression in Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell’s From Hell
2017
ABSTRACTIn From Hell, Alan Moore establishes systemic patriarchal sexual violence against the backdrop of Victorian London. While rape and other acts of physical repression are easily linked to the notion of sexual violence, Moore’s treatment is concentrated on the society as a whole. His anti-hero, physician Sir William Gull, justifies the serial murders and dissection rituals as a necessary continuation of Victorian inequality and as a symbolic manifestation of patriarchy’s counterattack. Linking ancient religion and mythology to a thousand years of British history, the sexual violence in From Hell is cast in the frame of a successful victory of patriarchy over matriarchy. Alan Moore’s pa…
“ArgumenteHin, ArgumenteHer.” Regularity and Idiomaticity in GermanN Hin,N Her
2017
This paper seeks to find the best linguistic analysis of the German semispecified, productive patternN hin, N her(for example,Krieg hin, Krieg her, es muss eine gute Show werden‘War or no war, it must be a good show’). The basic question is whether the properties ofN hin, N hercan be accounted for in a rule-based approach or whether they are to be regarded as idiosyncratic properties of this construction. One of the characteristic features ofN hin, N heris the identity of the nouns. This raises the question of whether or notN hin, N heris an instance of syntactic reduplication. It is shown that rule-based copying accounts fail when they are applied to the case ofN hin, N her. The paper argu…
Lotman’s semiotic theory of culture or Laclau’s political ontology?
2018
AbstractThe present article concentrates on the main discrepancies that should arise in the discussion between Lotman’s semiotics of culture and Laclau’s discursive theory of hegemony. Some significant – but still abstract – commonalities conceal fundamental disagreements which I would group around four topics. Firstly, Lotman’s semiotic method is at odds with Laclau’s ontological way of thinking. Secondly, although both Lotman and Laclau subscribe to the openness of signification, it is impossible to incorporate their accounts of this openness without loose ends. In order to substantiate this claim, I examine Lotman’s concept of “boundary” and Laclau’s concept of the “limit.” Thirdly, we s…
Primera persona del plural en los juicios orales. Valor representativo y estrategia atenuante
2018
El objetivo de este artículo es doble, pues nos proponemos estudiar los valores que puede desarrollar la primera persona del plural en los juicios orales y, en relación con ello, examinar si es posible identificar usos atenuantes asociados a este mecanismo referencial. Tras analizar nuestro corpus siguiendo una metodología cualitativa y cuantitativa, hemos podido observar que el uso de la primera persona del plural en este género no solo se debe al carácter representativo del sistema legal español o a las imposiciones de la tradición discursiva. Frecuentemente, el uso de la primera persona del plural (especialmente el plural de modestia y el plural sociativo) codifica un valor atenuante ori…

Animality and Biblical Masculinities in Conflict: Moses and the Golden Calf (Exodus 32)
2020
The purpose of this article is to analyze the masculinity of the biblical figure Moses in relation to the golden calf in Exodus 32. The prophet has been used as a model of biblical masculinity based on criteria such as violence, persuasive ability, his relationship to women, and physical disability. However, no gender construction derived from his interaction with the animal idol has been considered. In the context of the intersection of “animal studies” and “masculinity studies,” this article proposes the conceptualization of a biblical “zoomasculinity” linked to the prophet. Cohabitation with the theriomorphic statue allows Moses to embody diverse alternative masculinities that culminate…
Das jhwh-Heiligtum am Garizim: ein archäologischer Befund und seine literar- und theologiegeschichtliche Einordnung
2018
AbstractNo later than the midst of the 5th century the recently discovered sanctuary on Mt.Gerizim was the cultic center of the SamarianYhwh-worshippers, later known as the Samaritans. The sanctuary was in every way comparable to its counterpart in Jerusalem. The author investigates the question why there is so little mentioning of the sanctuary in the Bible at all; only the location “Mount Gerizim” is mentioned a few times in the Tora. Albeit its obvious absence in the texts, there seem to be several, enciphered mentions of the Samaria sanctuary in the later part of the (Judean) canon (Ketubim and Nebi’im). Altogether they criticize the cult on Mt.Gerizim in this very indirect way. The aut…

Orlando Furioso dalla specola del costrutto causativo
2017
Analisi e riflessioni sulle ricorrenze del costrutto causativo nell'Orlando Furioso che si rivela tratto saliente della lingua e dell'espressione dell'opera. Il poema di Ariosto pullula naturalmente di attori che, osservati dalla specola del costrutto causativo, si qualificano appunto come né sovrumani né subumani. Attori siffatti ne sono i protagonisti. Le loro vicissitudini costituiscono il tema dell’opera e ne sostanziano la trama. Che il costrutto causativo sia tanto frequente nel Furioso non è dunque un accidente e il dato è a questo punto comprensibile, perché integrato in un sistema. Il costrutto causativo è nel cuore del processo narrativo, ne è un motore.
