A geological field trip to the Côte d'Ivoire-Ghana transform margin
1998
Abstract During the Equanaute survey (June 1992), fourteen submersible dives were performed between 4950 and 2250 m water depths across the southern slope of the Cote d'Ivoire-Ghana Marginal Ridge (CIGMR), in the eastern Equatorial Atlantic. The CIGMR, a high-standing topographic marginal ridge along the Cote d'Ivoire-Ghana transform margin, is believed to result from a complex structural evolution due to the specific wrench-related rifting between Western Equatorial Africa and Northeastern Brazil, in Early Cretaceous times. In this paper we report and discuss geological observations made during dives, and sample analyses to resolve the lithology, paleoenvironmental conditions, age and orig…
Cooling and societal change during the Late Antique Little Ice Age from 536 to around 660 AD
2016
Societal upheaval occurred across Eurasia in the sixth and seventh centuries. Tree-ring reconstructions suggest a period of pronounced cooling during this time associated with several volcanic eruptions. Climatic changes during the first half of the Common Era have been suggested to play a role in societal reorganizations in Europe1,2 and Asia3,4. In particular, the sixth century coincides with rising and falling civilizations1,2,3,4,5,6, pandemics7,8, human migration and political turmoil8,9,10,11,12,13. Our understanding of the magnitude and spatial extent as well as the possible causes and concurrences of climate change during this period is, however, still limited. Here we use tree-ring…

La terminologie du vin au prisme des corpus oraux de dégustation/présentation (français-allemand) : entre émotions, culture et sensorialité
2017
International audience; Cet article vise à interroger et illustrer les apports de larges corpus oraux authentiques pour l'étude de la terminologie d'un domaine « flou », celui de l'oenologie, dans une approche contrastive français-allemand. D'un point de vue théorique, il s'agit tout d'abord de s'arrêter sur la nécessaire redéfinition de plusieurs principes de la terminologie traditionnelle en interrogeant le rôle de l'usage des termes, leur construction prototypique et leurs dimensions extra-techniques. D'un point de vue pratique, on discute ensuite, à partir du cas spécifique des données mobilisées, les contraintes pesant sur la collecte d'un corpus approprié. La dernière partie propose t…
Semantically enriched informed environment for multi-agent simulation : application to simulation in 3D virtual environment
2014
This thesis focuses on multi-agent simulation applied to the simulation of individuals in virtual 3D buildings. To do this, our work suggests to capitalize on the experience gained in the field of semantic web ontologies and inference engines to facilitate the design and development of intelligent behavior for agents operating in virtual worlds. The goal is to provide to agents a generic approach to managing their representation of the world and reason about this representation. For this, the central problem is based on the definition of a decidable ontology modeling all of the knowledge contained in the virtual 3D environment to enrich semantically the environment of a multi-agent simulati…

An imperial town in a time of transition. Life, environment, and decline of early Byzantine Caričin Grad
2016
The site of Caricin Grad in south-eastern Serbia – currently listed on UNESCO’s tentative list – has been the subject of archaeological investigations for more than 100 years. For the last decades it has been the focus of a joint project of the Archaeological Institute in Belgrade and the Ecole Francaise de Rome. A reconstruction of the economic, environmental and social history of the city is the main objective of a cooperative project started in 2014 with the Romisch-Germanisches Zentralmuseum Mainz. The remains of the early Byzantine complex of Caricin Grad show the features of a city built in the classical, Hellenistic-Roman tradition, combined with ecclesiastical Christian architecture…
Fonti, suggestioni e intersezioni classiche, tardoantiche e medievali nell’«Alda» di Guglielmo di Blois
2019
In questo saggio vengono studiate le fonti classiche, tardoantiche e medievali dell’«Alda», commedia elegiaca latina di Guglielmo di Blois (scritta verso il 1169-1170). In particolare, dopo una presentazione generale dell’opera e una rassegna critica degli studi e delle edizioni, ci si sofferma sulle suggestioni attinte a Terenzio, Virgilio, Orazio, Ovidio, Stazio, all’«Aegritudo Perdicae», Massimiano, Boezio, Ildeberto di Lavardin, ad alcune commedie elegiache del sec. XII (il «Geta» e l’«Aulularia» di Vitale di Blois, il «Pamphilus», la «Lidia» di Arnolfo d’Orléans) e alla tradizione novellistica “orientale” («Mischle Sendebar»). This essay is founded on the classical, late and medieval s…
TERME
2023
This contribution in terminology aims at taking into consideration the semantic and functional constituents of terms in a cognitive and discursive perspective. To this end, Geeraerts’ model of cognitive lexicology is used to study and exemplify the dimensions of linguistic signs. This discussion opens the door to a modern understanding of linguistic meaning that is provided for a holistic approach by frames, constructions and patterns. The observation of in-context-meaning in terminology is necessary in the broader perspective of a specialized discourse analysis based on the qualitative and quantitative investigation of authentic language material from documented interpersonal communication…
