Anthologie de la préhistoire littéraire
2018
La préhistoire raconte. Elle raconte les aventures des pionniers et des découvreurs, les trouvailles de squelettes fossiles et d'outils de pierre taillée. Elle raconte la révélation éblouie des grottes ornées de peintures polychromes. Surtout, elle raconte l'avènement et le devenir de l'Homme au long d'un itinéraire jalonné de transformations et d'inventions, d'extinctions, de migrations et de rencontres. La fiction est rendue nécessaire en préhistoire par la nature fragmentaire de ses preuves qu'il faut "mettre en intrigue" pour raconter une histoire. En retour, les savoirs de la préhistoire se trouvent appliqués, impliqués dans des oeuvres de fiction.Depuis cent cinquante ans, tout un ens…
L’ordinaire de la littérature. Des bénéfices pragmatistes dans les études littéraires
2008
International audience; This paper tries to examine why pragmatism, though often evoked and used in numerous academic fields, has had very little influence on French literary studies. To explain such a fact, the authors lay emphasis on the way the concept of literature was coined from romantic and structuralist elements in the French context. Doing so, they also suggest a few insights about what pragmatism could bring to literary studies and criticism, especially concerning the uses of literature, and its cognitive powers.; En dépit du reflux du structuralisme, la littérature continue d’être appréhendée à travers un prisme théorique d’obédience post-romantique, qui occulte son interaction a…

A “participação africana” num desporto olímpico: Lutas espaciais e questões de nacionalidade
2016
Cet article analyse les stratégies de reconnaissance d’une discipline olympique : le canoë de slalom. Il interroge en particulier les processus de diffusion de ce sport en Afrique en étudiant précisément sa place en tant que discipline au sein du mouvement olympique. Mais comment la diffusion d’un sport parmi les pays africains peut-elle cristalliser des enjeux nationaux ? Pour comprendre la complexité de cet objet, le remaniement des aires culturelles issues du joug des empires coloniaux est interrogé. Il s’agit d’inscrire les perceptions de la participation olympique dans les rivalités où elles s’inscrivent depuis les Indépendances. L’enquête restitue l’apport de la nationalité comme crit…
Measurements of diachronic stability of agrarian exploitation
2007
International audience; Off-site material has two main interesting properties which are that it is spatially continuous and diachronic. Such data can be used to estimate how ancient societies invested in a space in terms of intensity, durability and stability, over the long term. This micro-analysis is based on a precise record of off-site material based on collection units which never exceed five hectares. Each off-site sherd was dated and attributed to one of seven chronological phases. Three new indicators are proposed to measure the level of investment of ancient societies. The computing and mapping of these indicators was done using GIS software. The data used in this paper come mainly…
An integrated modelling and remote sensing approach for hydrological study in arid and semi-arid regions: the SUDMED Program
2008
International audience; Recent efforts have been concentrated in the development of models to understand and predict the impact of environmental changes on hydrological cycle and water resources in arid and semi-arid regions. In this context, remote sensing data have been widely used to initialize, to force, or to control the simulations of these models. However, for several reasons, including the difficulty in establishing relationships between observational and model variables, the potential offered by satellite data has not been fully used. As a matter of fact, a few hydrological studies that use remote sensing data emanating from different sources (sensors, platforms) have been performe…
Quantification of land-atmosphere exchanges of water, energy and carbon dioxide in space and time over the heterogeneous Barrax site
2008
International audience; To advance our understanding of land-atmosphere exchanges of water, energy and carbon dioxide (CO2) in space and time over heterogeneous land surfaces, two intensive field campaigns were carried out at the Barrax agricultural test site in Spain during 12-21 July 2004 (SPARC 2004) and 8-14 July 2005 (SEN2FLEX 2005) involving multiple field, satellite and airborne instruments for characterizing the state of the atmosphere, the vegetation and the soil from the visible to the microwave range of the spectrum. Part of the experimental area is a core site of area 25 km2, within which numerous crops are grown, on both irrigated and dry land, alongside fields of bare soil. Th…
