Quelques aspects de la contradiction et de la remise en cause dans le genre Letters to the editor
2001
Cette communication se fixe comme objectif de repérer quelques stratégies discursives de deux communautés de chercheurs et de comparer leur matérialisation linguistique dans un corpus de Letters to the Editor composé à partir de deux revues : The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition et de The Lancet. La stratégie de remise en cause est analysée comme le mode explicite ou implicite de la contradiction apportée à un fait scientifique établi. Ce discours, identifié comme un genre, se situe dans la logique de véridiction du discours scientifique. The aim of this study is to pick out a few discursive strategies in two research communities and to perform a comparative analysis of their linguist…

Apposition, contradiction, conflict and domination
2014
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to qualitatively describe and explain the contemporary Finnish discourse of municipal managers. The emphasis within is on analyzing the encounters of the public sector management discourse and the private sector management discourse, and the effects that these encounters have on the construction and representation of municipal management. Design/methodology/approach – The study is based on a three-phase discourse analysis, proceeding from the textual and linguistic level through interpretive analysis to critical analysis. This analysis is based on the proceedings and presentations of a seminar of municipal leadership and management, arranged in 2013 i…
El animal y el hombre. Derrida lector de Heidegger
2020
La cuestión del límite y la diferencia entre el hombre y el animal se ha convertido en una cuestión filosófica de especial relevancia. Baste reparar en sus implicaciones políticas, sociales, económicas, etc. Por primera vez el hombre puede dirigir su proceso evolutivo. Desde ese contexto, se analizan y discuten los argumentos heideggerianos sobre el tema, tomando como hilo conductor su lectura derridiana. En ella se pone de manifiesto la contradicción entre la necesidad temática y operatoria de un límite (entre el animal y el Dasein en relación a la muerte) y la imposibilidad de fundamentarlo.
‘Strong and courageous’ but ‘constantly insecure’: dialogical self theory, intersecting identities, and Christian mixed martial arts
2021
Being a mixed martial arts fighter and a devout Christian seems to present an apparent contradiction that requires identity work to bring these identities into unity. We used Dialogical Self Theory and explored the autobiography of Ron ‘H2O’ Waterman, a professional fighter turned evangelist, to understand how the tensions between the different identities or I-positions were negotiated. We identified two I-positions, ‘Ron the Fighter’ and ‘Ron the Pater Familias’, which related differently to religion, sport, and masculinity. Importantly, the negotiations were not between MMA and faith, but between these two I-positions that served the different needs for self-enhancement and union with som…
Marx y Engels y la división sexual del trabajo en la familia: ambigüedades, equívocos y vacíos teóricos
2018
Dada la importante influencia de Marx y Engels en el análisis de la estructura social, no sorprende el notable impacto de su obra en el estudio del papel de la mujer en la familia. Sin embargo, su herencia en este ámbito sociológico ha dado lugar a interpretaciones muy polarizadas. Este artículo quiere aportar algo de luz evidenciando las contradicciones del marxismo al estudiar el papel de la mujer en la familia. Para ello se comparan las contribuciones de Marx y Engels para calibrar posibles diferencias en las posturas de dos autores que en otros ámbitos han presentado un pensamiento muy homogéneo. Los resultados obtenidos permiten afirmar que, a pesar de su innegable influencia en el pen…
What does Ramon Llull mean when he says «[el resclús] se maravellá com podia esser que Deus no exoya la natura humana de Jesucrist, qui pregava per s…
2014
The proto-novel Fèlix, o Llibre de meravelles contains many unsettling «meravelles» or «wonders». One such consists in an observation made by a «recluse» —rather than by a professional theologian— concerning the prayers of Christ and of Mary and the angels, etc., to the effect that their prayers have been unable to call forth any response from God. The efficacy of such prayers is thus brought into question, as is the readiness of God’s mercy and grace. By contextualising such matters within medieval currents of Neoplatonism, particularly the doctrine of causality, I argue that Llull presents a causally conceived theorisation of the hypostatic union. I identify Biblical and medieval preceden…
Isocrates on paradoxical discourse
2013
It has long been stated that, in Isocrates' Helen, there seems to be an open contradiction between the author's harsh criticism of logoi paradoxoi and the simple fact that his own encomia of Helen and Busiris appear to be specimens of that very genre. Traditionally, this contradiction has been explained by Isocrates' need to distanciate his own work from that of his predecessors. This paper undertakes a different approach. Isocrates' criticism of paradoxographic literature is based upon observations about what is and what is not allowed in moral epideictic discourse. Isocrates' specific instructions about proper and improper moral argumentation can function as hermeneutical tool to analyze …
Dickens et Gaskell ou les difficultés à dire le vieillir
2006
International audience; L'analyse de la représentation du vieillissement sera limitée à la période mid-victorienne et centrée sur les oeuvres de Charles Dickens et d'Elizabeth Gaskell. Car si le désir de nier le vieilliseement est une caractéristique constante de l'époque, les changements des circonstances sociales et culturelles influent sur les formes que prend cette négation. Les gens agés sont très présents dans les oeuvres des deux romanciers, mais le processus de vieillissement est difficile à dégager. Les stratégies utilisées pour éviter la représentation du vieillissement -- déguisement, glissement, transmutation -- seront étudiées en relation avec le contexte de l'époque. Car la fi…
Measuring dissatisfaction with coauthorship: An empirical approach based on the researchers’ perception
2019
Abstract Increasing levels of collaboration constitute one of the characteristics of science. However, the knowledge production system is based on a fundamental discordance: on the one hand, it is cooperative in nature, with links articulated through coauthorships, and on the other, the systems for assigning merit and distributing rewards function on an individual scale. This contradiction can give rise to dysfunction and inappropriate practices. This study analyses researchers’ perceptions about the problems associated with authorship in scientific publications. We make use of a coauthorship dissatisfaction index that measures the degree of dissatisfaction with the author order on the byli…
