Dagens Rødhette i en flerkulturell kontekst – mulighet for en ny identitet?
2013
The starting point for this article is the tendency in recent Norwegian children’s and Ya fiction to thematize cultural encounters in an increasingly multicultural and globalized world. The picturebook Little Miss Eye Flap ( Skylappjenta , 2009) written by the Pakistani-Norwegian author and actor Iram Haq and illustrated by Endre Skandfer, presents a modern version of traditional folktales such as Little Red Riding Hood and Rapunzel . However, the traditional structure of home – away – home gives particular emphasis to the phase of homelessness, not providing any safe return to harmony. This condition of liminal space between cultures is discussed in light of the concepts of reflexive ident…
Digital Documenting Practices : Collaborative Writing in Workplace Training
2022
The present article examines collaborative writing in organizational consulting and training, where writing takes place as part of a group discussion assignment and is carried out by using digital writing technologies. In the training, the groups use digital tablets as their writing device in order to document their answers in the shared digital platform. Using multimodal conversation analysis as a method, the article illustrates the way writing is interactionally accomplished in this setting where digital writing intertwines with face-to-face interaction as the groups jointly formulate a documentable written entry for specific institutional purposes. The results show how writing is manage…
La presencia de Groto en la poesía amorosa de Quevedo: Tres poemas de argumento mitológico
2013
A través de la comparación de tres poemas amorosos de Quevedo con otros tantos del autor italiano Luigi Groto, el presente trabajo pretende demostrar que la imitación o reelaboración quevediana de otros autores no es nunca mecánica sino que conlleva siempre la aportación de recursos originales que consiguen renovar la tradición. En particular, en los poemas analizados, cuyo elemento común es la presencia de personajes mitológicos, es posible averiguar cómo Quevedo, aunque se trate de poemas ‘serios', maneja el tema mitológico de manera poco convencional, relativizando y hasta rebajando las figuras míticas con el uso de un tono que si no llega a los extremos de la burlesca, tiene a vec…
Ocnos : revista de estudios sobre lectura
2007
Resumen basado en el de la publicación Título, resumen, palabras clave en español e ingles Se describen los resultados y las conclusiones de un trabajo de investigación sobre hábitos de lectura y competencia literaria en alumnos de 4º de la E.S.O. El proyecto surgió de la necesidad de obtener datos concretos sobre la competencia literaria de los alumnos. Los profesores hablan muchísimo sobre lo que saben o no saben los alumnos, lo que deben o no hacer, lo que tienen o no que hacer ellos y, también, los responsables de la política educativa. Es decir, los profesores verbalizan sus reflexiones, pero, sólo en contadas ocasiones, lo hacen de manera sistemática. Se aporta datos concretos sobre g…
L’alba in forma di romanza: sul tipo strofico e musicale di 'Reis glorios' (BdT 242,64)
2018
La famosa alba attribuita da alcuni canzonieri a Giraut de Borneil è stata ultimamente al centro di una serie di autorevoli contributi, concomitanti alla scoperta di un’antica traduzione italiana del testo provenzale, che hanno cercato di definirne meglio lo stemma, il testo critico e l’interpretazione. In questo contributo si discutono gli aspetti formali di Reis glorios con riguardo a tutta la tradizione (anche indiretta) e si propone d’individuare nel suo tipo metrico e musicale la cosiddetta ‘strofa di romanza’: essa caratterizza in particolare il corpus di canzoni di tela antico-francesi col quale l’alba provenzale mostra di condividere anche elementi stilistici e retorici. Questa agni…
Adverbial expressions within the legal domain: from medieval fueros to their consolidation in language
2010
Given the importance of legal language in the study of historical phraseological, it is here analyzed the presence, use and evolution of adverbial phrases in some outstanding medieval fueros, and also how a good number of adverbial expressions have transcended and developed from legal language to other contexts, owed to —at least in some cases— a clear colloquial origin (a sabiendas, por bien...). This characteristic joins many others, such as the creation of complex syntagmas derived from the union of simple expressions: de cabo a rabo, a diestro y a sinestro, a tuerto o a derecho, etc. It is therefore interesting to study the individual, particular history of each adverbial phrase found, …
Xarxes semàntiques en el lèxic disponible de València. Una aproximació al lexicó bilingüe
2016
This work deals with the situation of languages in contact and explores the nature of bilingual lexicon by studying lexical availability. Based on the results published in 2010 in Lèxic disponible de València, and in relation to 'town' as the center of interest, the study applied a new analytical tool called DispoGrafo, which enabled us to observe issues related to the construction and organization of the mental lexicon, for example, the incidence or profitability of facilitating semantic-priming-in clusters made up of three or more closely linked elements. The sample was obtained from 464 high school students of 2nd baccalaureate in the Valencia province, and was established to represent t…
Sobre Joan Martorell, señor de Beniarbeig, y otros casos de homonimia en el siglo XV valenciano. Notas de archivo y observaciones metodológicas
2015
Resumen: Se aborda, con intencion metodologica, el problema de la homonimia en la documentacion medieval. Errores de identificacion, confusiones y anacronismos detectados en estudios recientes, ponen de manifiesto la necesidad de conocer mejor los aspectos onomasticos, diplomaticos y de contexto que permiten diferenciar correctamente individuos coetaneos portadores del mismo nombre. La documentacion relativa a Joan Martorell, senor de Beniarbeig, su hijo y su nieto, tres homonimos de una misma familia valenciana del siglo XV emparentada con la del autor de Tirant lo Blanch , es el punto de partida del articulo, en el que se analizan tambien otros casos. Palabras clave: Valencia, siglo XV, …
The brighter side of materialism : Managing impressions on social media for higher social capital
2022
Individuals adjust their behavior on social media to varying extent, and commonly in their idealized way. Most studies have focused on the problems associated with materialism and social media use, yet their potential positive contributions remain less clear. In fact, impression management holds potential for both negative and positive: it has been linked with materialistic attitudes, but also increased amounts of self-reported social capital. This study examines how young people's materialistic values connect with status-seeking impression management on social media, and subsequently to social capital, within the same model. Eight hundred Finnish participants aged 15–19 participated in our…
