Desire and its preternse: Analysis of Intersubjective relations in Frank Capra's It happened one night
2019
The following paper analyzes the plot of the 1934 film It Happened One Night, by Frank Capra, an authentic emblem within the film genre of romantic comedy. In it, the protagonists manage to overcome the obstacles that are offered in their way thanks to the pretense of a relationship, the marital one, which finally will end up becoming effective. Recalling a famous Lacanian sentence, according to which human beings “pretend to pretend”, the plot devised by Capra will be analyzed in order to go over the steps that sequence such pretenses. These give order to a process of maturity in which the characters will become what they represent, evidencing the sexual nature of the desire that had impel…
COVID-19 epidemic: Proposed alternatives in the management of digestive cancers: A French intergroup clinical point of view (SNFGE, FFCD, GERCOR, UNI…
2020
International audience; Introduction - Patients treated for malignancy are considered at risk of severe COVID-19. This exceptional pandemic has affected countries on every level, particularly health systems which are experiencing saturation. Like many countries, France is currently greatly exposed, and a complete reorganization of hospitals is ongoing. We propose here adaptations of diagnostic procedures, therapies and care strategies for patients treated for digestive cancer during the COVID-19 epidemic. Methods - French societies of gastroenterology and gastrointestinal (GI) oncology carried out this study to answer two main questions that have arisen (i) how can we limit high-risk situat…
El debat pro i antifeminista a la literatura catalana medieval
1987
This 1987 PhD dissertation, was de facto supervised by professors Lola Badia (Universitat de Barcelona) and Alan Deyermond (Queen Mary University of London), although, because of legal limitations at that time, supervision was officially signed by another professor). This was a pioneer work in the field of women’s studies, particularly in the so-called “querelle des femmes”, although, as the dissertation study specifies, this label would only become known as such in post-medieval times. This work, then, does not deal with all misogynistic references in the whole corpus of medieval Catalan literature (that would be quite impossible in one publication), but only with those texts arguing for o…

Hipster, preppy, girly... À propos des néologismes liés à la mode et de leur circulation en français et en tchèque
2018
The globalization, accelerating the language contact, facilitates greatly the circulation of neological expressions in unrelated languages. One of the areas with a significantly higher occurrence of neologisms is that of fashion and style. New words such as hipster, preppy and girly spread quickly in the Anglo-American culture and also invade the languages that this culture is in contact with, including French and Czech. Since this lexical field has not been studied in a comparative way, we decided to describe certain words related to the style in the two respective languages. Using a corpus based on our own knowledge of the topic and on the lexis found in the press, we try to describe the …
Les anglicismes en français et en tcheque contemporains : le cas des formes en-ing
2020
The aim of this study is to analyze the neological borrowings from English that occur in contemporary French and Czech. Special emphasis is placed on neological borrowings with the -ing suffix. Owing to the status of Anglo-American as a lingua franca, Anglicisms affect all languages. This study investigates more specifically the processes involved in these -ing constructions. After a quantitative analysis of the respective diffusion and productivity in both languages, we focus on a few specific words (phishing, géocaching, sharing, washing), attested in both languages, and compare their integration from several perspectives (phonological, orthographical, morphological, semantic and local va…

Valenza e insegnamento della lingua straniera
2015
This work deals with valency, a key syntactic notion whose chemistry-inspired label was established by Lucien Tesnière (1959), one of the most well-known contributors to the Prague Linguistic Circle. We will concentrate on two questions: (a) to what extent does valency play a role in Second Language Learning (SLL)?; and (b) what role should the use of valency play in language teaching practices? This paper will provide answers to these questions and propose reasons for motivating the use of valency in SLL.

La fragmentation de l'orthographe française : le cas de Twitter
2018
The enormous development of new communication technologies, especially the Internet, causes an unprecedented reversal in our lives sińce the discovery of printer. Apart from their impact on interpersonal relationships, new communication technologies have also modified our writing practices. It is evident that the French language used in computer-mediated communication digresses more and more from the developed formal speeches, in particular by its “fragmented” orthographic form which approaches its o rai form. Although this “fragmented” writing is scorned by many educated people, these orthographic variants represent, according to us, the true state of the French language as used by native …
