Inscripción en cuatro movimientos. Estilos en la construcción del texto informativo-interpretativo
2015
Los textos periodísticos responden a una serie de estrategias comunicativas que, inevitablemente, dejan su huella en ellos. Desde la elección del léxico a la contextualización de los hechos, pasando por la focalización o la inclusión de otras voces, el periodista incorpora su punto de vista, también en los géneros informativos-interpretativos. Este artículo aporta herramientas metodológicas para estudiar cómo se inscribe la interpretación en ellos.
Narrative Tools for Games : Focalization, Granularity, and the Mode of Narration in Games
2015
This article looks at three narratological concepts—focalization, granularity, and the mode of narration—and explores how these concepts apply to games. It is shown how these concepts can be used as tools for creating meaning-effects, which are understood here as cognitive responses from the player. Focalization is shown to have a hybrid form in games. This article also explores the different types of narrators and granularities in games, and how these three concepts can be used to create meaning-effects. This is done by discussing examples from several games, for example, Assassin’s Creed III, Skyrim, Fallout: New Vegas, and Civilization.
Family time negotiations in the context of non-standard work schedules
2019
Present-day parenting is centred round the question of time, especially in the case of working parents.

The findings indicated that time negotiations within the family concerned everyday routines and schedules, social life and the family‗s philosophy. Family life and schedules in the context of non-standard schedules w…
Aspects discursifs dans les contes d’ Edgar Allan Poe et leurs traductions en français et en espagnol
2012
It is known that the translation exercise has always been important in the development of the human knowledge. That is why we have considered interesting to analyse the French and Spanish translations of Edgar Allan Poe’s Tales. The aim of this contribution is the study of temporal cohesion in a cognitive approach. We have chosen three Tales of Edar Allan Poe: Berenice, The Oval Portrait, and The Masque of the Red Death. In a first step we’ll find the three markers still, again and then among the three Tales and in a second step we will compare the translations (French and Spanish ) of these markers with the original text. We think that these markers are polysemous and that they have a prot…
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…
