Changing Perceptions of Multiculturalism in the British Public Sphere
2017
This paper is devoted to the examination of the evolution of the uses of the term multiculturalism in a corpus of selected speeches by prominent British politicians, officials and diplomats in the United Kingdom within the decade 2001–2011. Britain is considered to be one of Europe’s most multicultural countries and there was a time when its government took pride in its pro-integration policies. That is why within the elite discourses of the Labour governments of the late 1990s, multiculturalism had overwhelmingly positive connotations: it was associated with new opportunities, strength, enrichment, social progress and economic success. However, over the course of the 2000s there was much d…

Déchiffrement historique de l’écriture libanienne. À propos de Libanios, Discours 48 et 49
2016
The main theme, the direct relationship with the career of Libanius and the rhetorical common framework, unite at historical level the speeches 48 and 49. The evidence of these two speeches is of primary importance to know the institutional, legal, economic, and social situation in the second half of the 4th century A.D. Indeed, they document a series of transformations, or the appearance of new phenomena: the strong diversification of the curial class, and a broadening gap between the prôtoi and the mere bouleutai; the desertion of the boulai ; the rise in Antioch of new study subjects such as Latin and law. A twofold ideal can be inferred from these two Libanius’ speeches: on the one hand…
The image of vegetables : speeches, representation and consumption habits in France
2018
Since the establishment of the PNNS (National Health Nutrition Program) in 2001 in France, everyone knows that we must eat vegetables daily, and from a very young age, to enjoy a balanced diet. In the country whose "gastronomic meal" was certified in 2010 by the UNESCO Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, the food culture has, for twenty years, seen its tradition based on on taste and commensality, disrupted by an increasingly functional approach to nutrition, focused on nutrition and health.The French eater is, in this context, beset by contradictory discourses on food, but which tend for the most part to make him responsible and…
The debate on rare diseases : a look at media response
2015
Este artículo se encuentra disponible en la siguiente URL: https://ojs.uv.es/index.php/Metode/article/view/7188/7809 Este monográfico lleva por título "Science grid : the public understanding of science". Rare diseases (RDs) are those that affect fewer than five people in every 10,000. There are around 7,000 RDs, they are difficult to diagnose and very few have a treatment. This article explores how the media report on the arguments and counter-arguments regarding the access to drugs for these pathologies, with critical discourse analysis for the case of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. We concluded that, in times of crisis, the debate polarises around economic arguments (the price of drugs), r…
Il fattore personale dell'argomentazione: una prospettiva retorico-antropologica
2014
Dans le cadre d’une approche philosophique et épistémologique, qui privilège le point de vue rhétorique sur l’argumentation et la ligne de pensée Aristote-Vico-Perelman, la thèse essaye d’analyser la construction de la subjectivité dans le discours argumentatif. Je cherche à montrer qu’il est possible de tracer une théorie de l’argumentation dans laquelle subjective n’est pas synonyme de fallacieuse.En général, la thèse analyse le rôle de celui qui parle et de celui qui écoute dans l’argumentation et dans tous les discours. Je vais soutenir est que la dimension personnelle n’est pas un élément qu’il faut supprimer mais, au contraire, un élément essentiel du discours argumentatif.Une approch…
Obesity and food, discours and practices communication approach
2022
It is within the framework of Information and Communication Sciences that our study proposes to analyze the communicational approach of obesity and diet to highlight how discourse influences eating practices. By relying on the study of scientists discourses, experts, health and food professionals and on that of the messages delivered by educators to the wide public, we try to determine why the innumerable recommendations generate in those who receive them, process them, interpret them, confusion or even misunderstanding. However, these are not the sources of information that are lacking to keep abreast of advances in medical science, innovations or progress proposed by Agro-industrials. Arg…
Merito, responsabilità e incertezza nel dibattito su Mitilene (Tucidide III 39 ss.)
2017
Questo contributo analizza le due sezioni esordiali dell’antilogia di Cleone e Diodoto sulla punizione da infliggere ai Mitilenesi per la loro rivolta, presentata da Tucidide nel III libro. Nei due incipit, così come in altri punti chiave dell’agone retorico, gli oratori definiscono le categorie di “responsabilità” e “responsabilizzazione”, “titolo” e “merito”. Attraverso la contrapposizione tra i due discorsi, Tucidide mette in luce l’“incertezza” come condizione necessaria e qualificante di una autentica “deliberazione”. This paper analyzes the introductive sections in the antilogical speeches of Cleon and Diodotus on the punishment that Mytileneans deserve for their revolt (Thucydides, b…
Non solo Platone. Il primato dell'oralità nel retore Alcidamante
2020
Il saggio è dedicato all’orazione Sugli autori dei discorsi scritti o sui sofisti, attribuita al retore Alcidamante, discepolo di Gorgia e attivo in Atene tra il 410 e il 365 a.C. Argomento dell’orazione è il serrato confronto tra due differenti modalità oratorie, l’autoschediazein (“parlare a braccio”) — cui Alcidamente accorda una netta superiorità — e il "gegrammena legein (“pronunciare discorsi scritti”). L’interesse di questo testo (databile con buona approssimazione intorno al 390 a. C) consiste essenzialmente nel rappresentare un punto di vista specificamente retorico sulla questione delle differenze tra scritto e parlato. Nonostante alcune significative convergenze con il ben più ce…
