Abstract

Les bienfaits d’un repos mérité, de nombreuses fois réitérés au cours des siècles antérieurs, n’avaient jamais amené les historiens à s’interroger sur la place qu’occupait le sommeil dans les sociétés passées. Longtemps, notre histoire entière a été l’histoire d’hommes éveillés. Il est pourtant indéniable que la société française à la veille de l’Industrialisation se caractérisait par une culture dominante de sommeil, très largement christianisée et vivant selon des habitudes héritées. Le lieu d’accueil (chambres, garnis, dortoirs), le mobilier et les accessoires (lits, bourdalous, réveils, veilleuses), les attitudes du corps endormi (positionnement du corps, durée du sommeil), les rituels (prières, sujets de méditation), les vêtements (chemise de nuit, bonnet) sont des éléments partagés par la société française, tout en étant des marqueurs de distinction sociale. Un aristocrate parisien ne dormait pas comme un paysan de la Gâtine poitevine, une femme différemment d’un homme, un vieillard plus difficilement qu’un enfant… En ce sens, pratiques et discours sont intimement liés. La question du sommeil a en effet occupé une place spécifique dans l’organisation des savoirs touchant à l’étude de la nature humaine. Elle appartient, autant à la médecine, qu’à la philosophie ou encore à la théologie. Autant de disciplines qui s’interrogent sur les fonctions du sommeil, ses enjeux, mais aussi ses troubles : insomnie, somnambulisme, sommeil excessif…

Abstract

Many recent works of contemporary art, performance, and film turn a spotlight on sleep, wresting it from the hidden, private spaces to which it is commonly relegated. At the Edges of Sleep considers sleep in film and moving image art as both a subject matter to explore onscreen and a state to induce in the audience. Far from negating action or meaning, sleep extends into new territories as it designates ways of existing in the world, in relation to people, places, and the past. Defined positively, sleep also expands our understanding of reception beyond the binary of concentration and distraction. These possibilities converge in the work of Thai filmmaker and artist Apichatpong Weerasethakul, who has explored the subject of sleep systematically throughout his career. In examining Apichatpong’s work, Jean Ma brings together an array of interlocutors—from Freud to Proust, George Méliès to Tsai Ming-liang, Weegee to Warhol—to rethink moving images through the lens of sleep. Ma exposes an affinity between cinema, spectatorship, and sleep that dates to the earliest years of filmmaking, and sheds light upon the shifting cultural valences of sleep in the present moment.

Abstract

Hypertension is a major health problem worldwide, increasing cardiovascular (CV) risk and mortality. Together with pharmacological treatments, non-pharmacological approaches, such as nutrient intake modifications, play an important role in optimizing treatment. A link has been demonstrated between hypertension and body weight as well as dietary habits. The aim of this Special Issue is to improve the understanding of the relationships between some nutrients and hypertension, and of the effects of different dietary approaches on hypertension regulation from different points of view.

Abstract

Dit boek geeft een gedetailleerde beschrijving van de temporele organisatie van het werk in Vlaanderen en hoe deze evolueerde, op basis van een tijdsbudget bij de Vlaamse bevolking. Hoeveel uren werken bij? Wie werkt er 'van negen tot vijf'? Hoeveel Vlamingen werken 's avonds, 's nachts en in het weekend? Wie geniet veel tijdsoevereiniteit? Hoe organiseren deeltijdsen hun arbeid? De vergelijking van de gegevens van 1988 en 1999 maakt het mogelijk een aantal evoluties te bekijken. Werken we nu langer of korter dan vroeger? Zijn de arbeidstijden nu echt flexibeler en minder voorspelbaar? Er is ook bijzondere aandacht voor de verschillende arbeidsmarktsituatie van mannen en vrouwen en de problematiek van de combinatie arbeid en gezin. Het boek besluit met een aantal pertinente beleidsconclusies.
