Translingual quoting in journalism : behind the scenes of Swiss television newsrooms
2019
This chapter focuses on translingual quoting (TQ), i.e. the subprocess of news-writing by which utterances from sources are both quoted and translated. Analyses of journalists’ mental and material activities suggest conceptualizing TQ as a complex and dynamic activity in which journalists’ individual and collective (e.g., institutional) language awareness, knowledge, and practices interact with multi-layered contexts of text production. Based on this empirically and theoretically grounded concept of TQ, the chapter presents a two-part typology of TQ: In sequential TQ, ready-made media items or interview materials are translated into another language; in parallel TQ, interviews and/or texts …
Mobile phones, identity and discursive intimacy
2005
This paper deals with the sociocultural effects of mobile phones in Philippine society. In particular it looks at how mobile phones have affected notions of identity and the rise of the sexual subject. It also deals with the political possibilities and implication of this new communicative technology in a society with previously poorly developed telephonic and other communicative technologies. Mobile phones allow absent subjects to exercise a daily presence in their communities of origin. This absent presence generates virtual subjects interacting primarily via the mobile phone.
Mehr als Musik: Die sieben Dimensionen des Eurovision Song Contests
2008
"Der Eurovision Song Contest (ESC) ist der weltweit größte internationale Wettbewerb für populäre Musik und das erfolgreichste Fernsehunterhaltungsprogramm in Europa. Obwohl der ESC ursprünglich das Ziel verfolgte, die Entstehung neuer Lieder zu fördern, handelte es sich doch stets um ein von den Fernsehanstalten inszeniertes Medienereignis, das erst nachrangig musikökonomischen Zwecken dient. Für das Publikum ist der ESC auf Grund seiner Periodizität, seiner spezifischen Programmstruktur und nicht zuletzt des Zugehörigkeitsgefühls der Zuschauer, das auf Schemata nationaler und kultureller Identifikation beruht, zu einem hochgradig ritualisierten Medienereignis geworden. Seine Bedeutung geh…
On Temporal Aspects in Cross-Cultural e-Collaboration Between Finland and Japan Research Teams
2018
Time is an essential dimension in cross-cultural e-collaboration among research project teams. Understanding temporal aspects and project dynamics in cross-cultural research e-collaboration and related processes can improve team members' skills in cross-cultural communication and increase their cultural competence. The present case cultures are Finnish and Japanese, and the case universities are the University of Jyväskylä (Finland) and Keio University (Japan). Three issues are addressed in this article. First, cultural dimensions and time models in the cross-cultural e-collaboration context are discussed. Second, temporal aspects related to e-collaboration activities are introduced. Third,…
Invisible streams : Process-thinking in Arendt
2016
For Hannah Arendt, some of the most distinctive features of the modern age derived from the adoption of a process-imaginary in science, history, and administration. This article examines Arendt’s work, identifying what it calls the ‘process-frame’ in her criticism of imperialism, economy, and the biologization of politics. It discusses an interpretation in which ‘natality’ presents a completely alternative mode of temporality, a resistance to the process-frame. This interpretation, it is argued, needs to be specified by taking into account that political action both interrupts and starts processes of its own. To confine and overcome the negative effects of process-framing, it is important t…
Granica państwowa w teorii pogranicza
2014
W artykule zaprezentowano wątpliwości dotyczące definiowania pogranicza polegającego na przyjęciu granicy państwowej jako podstawowego kryterium definicyjnego. Autor wychodzi z założenia, że granica państwowa może tworzyć różne relacje z pograniczem i nie jest koniecznym warunkiem istnienia pogranicza. Przede wszystkim możliwe jest wykształcenie się pogranicza społecznego, w którym to procesie granica państwowa nie odgrywa żadnej roli. Autor przedstawia siedem argumentów wyjaśniających to podejście a następnie przedstawia typologię pograniczy ze względu na ich relację z granicą państwową, dzieląc je na: pogranicze nadgraniczne, pogranicze reliktowe, pogranicze migracyjne, pogranicze mieszan…
Introduzione al volume Crescere/Svilupparsi
2020
Complessivamente 12 sono i saggi che compongono questa raccolta dedicata alla riflessione antica e moderna sulla crescita e sviluppo delle forme di vita. Ogni saggio rappresenta un vero e proprio viaggio che attraversa diverse regioni del sapere: i classici antichi, greci e latini, sono in effetti quantitativamente predominanti, e questo a ragione dei prevalenti interessi scientifici dei curatori, i quali però si sono ben guardati dall’isolare il ‘classico’ nella sua idiosincratica prospettiva ante litteram, ma hanno cercato e trovato la collaborazione con altri settori della ricerca scientifica. Il che si traduce nella partecipazione al progetto editoriale e scientifico anche di antropolog…
Transferencia génica hepática hidrodinámica en modelos de cerdo in vivo y segmento humano ex vivo
2015
Introducción: La terapia génica es una estrategia terapéutica que pretende utilizar ácidos nucleicos como medicamentos para el tratamiento temporal o permanente de patologías hereditarias o adquiridas. En base al vehículo utilizado para entregar el gen, podemos clasificar la terapia génica en dos grupos: la terapia génica viral (vectores virales) y la terapia génica no viral (vectores no virales o ADN desnudo). La terapia no viral resulta menos eficiente pero más segura. La hidrofección (transferencia génica hidrodinámica) ha mostrado un gran potencial, con resultados terapéuticos en ratón. Sin embargo, cuando la hidrofección se ha trasladado a animales de mayor tamaño, el procedimiento ha …
Building and Testing a Comparative Interface on Northwest European Historical Parliamentary Debates : Relative Term Frequency Analysis of British Rep…
2022
Tensions between the people and parliament over representation are a normal feature of representative democracies. In this paper, we demonstrate how digital humanities analysis tools help in answering questions about the timing of debates on popular representation, tensions over its realization, and representatives’ changing perceptions on their parliamentary role. Our long-term approach to the conceptual history of political representation is based on the analysis of digitized parliamentary debates as nexuses of multi-sited political discourse. We combine computer-assisted distant and context-sensitive close reading to consider diachronic trends and synchronic political struggles surroundi…
La cuginanza. Storie esemplari di cugini dai Greci a Paperino
2022
Il saggio indaga in una prospettiva storico-linguistica e antropologica la natura del rapporto di cuginanza nella civiltà greca, proponendo confronti con la terminologia e la relativa concezione nel mondo latino. Al centro dell'indagine, condotta principalmente per un pubblico di non specialisti, c'è un ragionamento sulle occorrenze più antiche del termine greco "anepsiòs", esaminate nel loro contesto specifico all'interno, soprattutto, dei poemi omerici. Emerge la particolare natura del rapporto di cuginanza (termine attestato in greco nella forma anepsiòtes) secondo i Greci, che ne fa, specie nel caso di cugini primi, una fattispecie di parenti legati da uno stretto reciproco legame che i…
