Les poisons du XIXe et leur traduction à l’espagnol : Mateu Orfila et son Traité des poisons (1814-1815)
2019
Dans ce travail, on étudie une des œuvres pionnières de référence en toxicologie du XIXe siècle : Traité des poisons, publiée par Mathieu Orfila entre 1814 et1815 à Paris, traduite en espagnol par le Dr. Mariano de Larra y Langelot en 1819, et éditée à Madrid. Larra se vante, dans l'introduction, que sa traduction a été révisée par Orfila lui-même, détail qui n’apparaît pas dans les traductions en allemand, anglais ou italien. Nous présenterons les événements historiques qui ont accompagné cette première traduction, ainsi que les raisons qui ont conduit Mariano de Larra, père du célèbre écrivain romantique Mariano José de Larra, à traduire ce travail après avoir été exilé en France pendant …
Le graphic novel italien Peppino Impastato un giullare contro la mafia et sa traduction française
2018
Eddie Campbell dans son Graphic Novel Manifesto définit ce nouvel art «a movement rather than a form», un courant d’auteurs dont le but est d’élever la bande dessinée à des niveaux plus ambitieux, d’autant plus que l’objet de leurs œuvres dérive de l’histoire passée où récente d’un Pays. Le critique et essayiste italien Goffredo Fofi considère le graphic novel la forme expressive la plus vitale au monde aujourd’hui au même niveau que les documentaires cinématographiques. Traduire un graphic novel comporte tous les défis de la traduction d’une bande dessinée et d’un récit avec en plus, dans le cas de Peppino Impastato, la difficulté linguistique due à l’emploi de formes dialectales du sicili…
Semi-natural habitats in boreal Europe: a rise of a social-ecological research agenda
2021
The European continent contains substantial areas of semi-natural habitats, mostly grasslands, which are among the most endangered habitats in Europe. Their continued existence depends on some form of human activity, for either production or conservation purposes, or both. We examined the share of semi-natural grasslands within the general grassland areas in boreal Europe. We reviewed research literature across the region to compile evidence on semi-natural grasslands and other semi-natural habitats, such as wooded pastures, in respect to a range of topics such as ecology, land-use change, socioeconomics, and production. We also explored drivers of the research agenda and outlined future re…
Elementos ideológicos en las unidades fraseológicas con la palabra mujer en el Diccionario académico en los siglos XVIII y XIX
2017
This paper explores ideological elements regarding gender in phraseological units with the word mujer(‘woman’) in the different editions of the dictionarypublished by Real Academia Española during the 18th and the 19th centuries. First, the ideological content in the phraseological units themselves is analyzed. Second, phenomena related to subjectivity in the definitions are analyzed: this evidences subjectivity not only in the different phraseological units presented in the dictionary, but also in the discourse of the academics. In order to approach the first issue, a typology of the different phraseological units according to their syntactic-semantic properties is provided: this categoriz…
Alarmist by bad design: Strongly popularized unsubstantiated claims undermine credibility of conservation science
2019
“Unless we change our ways of producing food, insects as a whole will go down the path of extinction in a few decades.” or “Our work reveals dramatic rates of decline that may lead to the extinction of 40% of the world's insect species over the next few decades.” These are verbatim conclusions of the recent paper by Sánchez-Bayoa and Wyckhuys (2019) in Biological Conservation. Because of fundamental methodological flaws, their conclusions are unsubstantiated. Like noted by The Guardian, the conclusions of the paper were set out in unusually forceful terms for a peer-reviewed scientific paper. The current case…
Multimodal Aposematic Defenses Through the Predation Sequence
2021
Aposematic organisms warn predators of their unprofitability using a combination of defenses, including visual warning signals, startling sounds, noxious odors, or aversive tastes. Using multiple lines of defense can help prey avoid predators by stimulating multiple senses and/or by acting at different stages of predation. We tested the efficacy of three lines of defense (color, smell, taste) during the predation sequence of aposematic wood tiger moths (Arctia plantaginis) using blue tit (Cyanistes caeruleus) predators. Moths with two hindwing phenotypes (genotypes: WW/Wy = white, yy = yellow) were manipulated to have defense fluid with aversive smell (methoxypyrazines), body tissues with a…
