Abstract

Doelstelling: Deze scriptie is een vertaling en literair-technische analyse van twee kortverhalen geschreven door Joyce Cary. In de literair-technische analyse worden de tijd, vertelling, focalisatie en thematiek besproken. Middelen of methode: De vertaalde kortverhalen zijn afkomstig uit de verhalenbundel Spring Song and Other Stories van Joyce Cary, die in 1960 verscheen. De literair-technische analyse stoelt op het instrumentarium van Rimmon-Kenan, S. Narrative fiction: Contemporary Poetics. London/New York: Methuen & Co, 1983 Resultaten: Uit de analyse en vergelijking van beide kortverhalen blijkt dat de aspecten tijd, vertelling en focalisatie grotendeels op dezelfde manier worden uitgewerkt. De manier waarop de thematiek uitgewerkt wordt in beide verhalen verschilt echter.

Abstract

Cet ouvrage, constitué par les actes du colloque "Contact" organisé sous la direction de Sylvie Coëllier, inaugure la nouvelle collection "Arts" des PUP. Il s'insère dans la série des travaux "Théorie et pratique des arts" émanant du LESA. La publication propose une interrogation esthétique et historique de la notion de contact dans le domaine des arts plastiques au XXe siècle. Une première partie circonscrit le champ de la notion à travers les approches, fort différentes mais non divergentes, de l'artiste Cherokee Jimmie Durham, d'un physicien explorant tactilement les nanomindes et d'un philosophe. Les autres textes dessinent une histoire de la notion dans l'art du XXe siècle allant de l'haptique et du fusionnel à la tactilité intimiste ou au choc. Les oeuvres interrogées à cette intention ont été réalisées par des artistes nombreux et divers : Marcel Duchamp, Raoul Hausmann, les expressionnistes allemands, Brancusi, Barnett, Newman et Rothko, Hantaï et quelques membres de Supports-Surfaces, Vito Acconci, Valie Export et Yoko Ono, Richard Serra, Michael Snow, Luciano Fabro, l'argentin Fabian Marcaccio, l'atelier Lieshout, Marie-Ange Guilleminot et Gabriel Orozsco.

Abstract

Gull chicks beg for food from their parents. Peacocks spread their tails to attract potential mates. Meerkats alert family members of the approach of predators. But are these--and other animals--sometimes dishonest? That's what William Searcy and Stephen Nowicki ask in The Evolution of Animal Communication. They take on the fascinating yet perplexing question of the dependability of animal signaling systems. The book probes such phenomena as the begging of nesting birds, alarm calls in squirrels and primates, carotenoid coloration in fish and birds, the calls of frogs and toads, and weapon displays in crustaceans. Do these signals convey accurate information about the signaler, its future behavior, or its environment? Or do they mislead receivers in a way that benefits the signaler? For example, is the begging chick really hungry as its cries indicate or is it lobbying to get more food than its brothers and sisters? Searcy and Nowicki take on these and other questions by developing clear definitions of key issues, by reviewing the most relevant empirical data and game theory models available, and by asking how well theory matches data. They find that animal communication is largely reliable--but that this basic reliability also allows the clever deceiver to flourish. Well researched and clearly written, their book provides new insight into animal communication, behavior, and evolution.

Abstract

The First World War ravaged the male body on an unprecedented scale, yet fostered moments of physical intimacy and tenderness among the soldiers in the trenches. Touch, the most elusive and private of the senses, became central to war experience. War writing is haunted by experiences of physical contact: from the muddy realities of the front to the emotional intensity of trench life, to the traumatic obsession with the wounded body in nurses' memoirs. Through extensive archival and historical research, analysing previously unknown letters and diaries alongside literary writings by figures such as Owen and Brittain, Santanu Das recovers the sensuous world of the First World War trenches and hospitals. This original and evocative study alters our understanding of the period as well as of the body at war, and illuminates the perilous intimacy between sense experience, emotion and language as we try to make meaning in times of crisis.
