Abstract

This edited volume, based on papers presented at the 2017 Georgetown University Round Table on Language and Linguistics (GURT), approaches the study of language variation from a variety of angles. Language variation research asks broad questions such as, "why are languages' grammatical structures different from one another?" as well as more specific word-level questions such as, "why are words that are pronounced differently still recognized to be the same words?" Too often, research on variation has been siloed based on the particular question- sociolinguists do not talk to historical linguists, who do not talk to phoneticians, and so on. This book seeks to bring discussions from different subfields of linguistics together to explore language variation in a broader sense and acknowledge the complexity and interwoven nature of variation itself.

Abstract

Поэзия - это творческое исследование семиотических возможностей языка и поле функционирования сложных нетривиальных смыслов. В основе смыслопорождения в герметичном поэтическом дискурсе лежат процессы подвижного семиозиса, в котором отношения стабильности между означающим и означаемым поставлены под вопрос, а сила тяжести перемещена на интерпретанту, и смысловой энтропии как интенсивного приращения смысла с невозможностью сформулировать его конечное состояние. В книге на материале текстов на немецком и русском языках рассматриваются разнообразные проявления поэтического герметизма в актуальной поэзии, а также семантико-синтаксические механизмы и прагматический потенциал смысловой неопределенности - от неуловимого намека и неразрешимой двусмысленности до нонсенса и тайнописи.

Abstract

A Critical Introduction to Philosophy of Language is a historically oriented introduction to the central themes in philosophy of language. Its narrative arc covers Locke's 'idea' theory, Mill's empiricist account of math and logic, Frege and Russell's development of modern logic and its subsequent deployment in their pioneering program of 'logical analysis', Ayer and Carnap's logical positivism, Quine's critique of logical positivism and elaboration of a naturalist-behaviorist approach to meaning, and later-Wittgenstein's 'ordinary language philosophy'-inspired rejection of the project of logical analysis. Thus, it historically situates the two central programs in early twentieth-century English-speaking philosophy -- logical analysis and logical positivism -- and discusses the central critiques they face later in the century in the works of Quine and the later-Wittgenstein. Unlike other secondary studies in philosophy of language, A Critical Introduction to Philosophy of Language is not just a 'greatest hits album', i.e., a discontinuous compilation in which classics in the field are presented together with their standard criticisms one after the other. Instead, Fennell develops a particular, historical-thematic narrative in which the figures and ideas he treats are introduced in highly intentional ways. And by cross-referencing them throughout his discussions, he highlights the contributions they make to the narrative they comprise.

Abstract

Que ce soit sous la forme de l'éclectisme ou que ce soit sous la forme de ce qui peut être rassemblé sous l'emblème du "tout communicatif", de "l'approche actionnelle" ou de l'approche par compétences, les discours qui alimentent la doxa du champ éducatif et de la didactique des langues (DLE) se sont progressivement inscrits dans la sphère d'influence du néo-libéralisme et de sa "langue de coton". Corrélativement, la DLE se propose de développer une ou des conceptions dans lesquelles une suite de procédures à suivre doit permettre de résoudre une ou des tâches en vue de l'acquisition du savoir-faire. Ce modèle, même s'il n'y fait pas référence, délimite un sens technique plus ou moins univoque qui sera transmis et prend source dans ce que Dan Sperber et Deirdre Wilson (1986) ont appelé le "modèle du code". Simultanément, l'émergence de conceptions majoritairement développées autour des propositions du Conseil de l'Europe ont mis en oeuvre, depuis les années 1990, une instrumentalisation de la langue et ont, d'autre part, présidé à la disparition du sujet en tant qu'élément constitutif de l'acte d'apprendre. Comme l'écrit Cynthia Fleury, "la langue des dominés n'a pas le même accès à la performativité que celle des dominants. Si la première demeure langage, la seconde fait réalité" (Les irremplaçables). Le présent ouvrage se propose donc de déconstruire le discours dominant et d'interroger la didactique des langues et, plus largement, l'enseignement en Europe - dans leurs discours et leurs pratiques ) sur la conception du sujet qu'ils véhiculent, en convoquant des points de vue historique, socio-anthropologique, philosophique, psychanalytique et politique, centrés sur des objets spécifiquement articulés à la didactique, aux politiques éducatives, à la linguistique.

Abstract

Ce livre propose une lecture d'Agota Kristof à la lumière de sa situation d'écrivaine translingue. Agota Kristof est une auteure pour laquelle le français est une langue apprise tardivement et par une démarche individuelle. L'ouvrage prend en compte l'ensemble de son œuvre, y compris ses poèmes hongrois, de publication récente, qui n'ont pas encore fait l'objet d'étude. Le translinguisme, mode d'existence ainsi que thème constant de l'œuvre, constitue un accès privilégié aux textes. Il permet d'interroger les positionnements de l'auteure, les transformations de sa poétique, ses stratégies d'écriture, et de démontrer que l'expérience du changement de langue – de vie et d'écriture – a contribué de manière décisive à l'élaboration de la poétique de l'auteure.
