Abstract

Célébrer est un acte complexe : acte physique, acte mental aussi, acte qui, s'il est réellement posé, engage toutes les dimensions de la personne. C'est justement de cette gamme, de cette amplitude, de cette profondeur que les Pères de l'Église nous aident à prendre conscience. Certes, et presque toujours en lien avec son exercice communautaire et liturgique, ils parlent des postures de la prière ; mais outre la posture de l'assemblée célébrante, ce que nous essaierons de traquer ici, c'est sa mentalité, son ethos et, le cas échéant (l'homme antique, oriental ou méditerranéen est un expressif), son pathos. La mosaïque des textes fait surgir devant celui qui la reconstitue toute une déontologie de la célébration ; elle laisse transparaître, de manière singulièrement concordante, ce qui pour les Pères est normatif en la matière et ce vers quoi ils entendent acheminer l'assemblée chrétienne. À partir de ces témoignages rassemblés et classés, François Cassingena-Trévedy établit un profil comportemental des « concélébrants », clercs et laïcs, aux IVe et Ve siècles pour l'essentiel ; non pas seulement de l'homme extérieur, mais plus encore, pour user d'une terminologie augustinienne, de l'« homme intérieur ».

Abstract

The present volume focuses on complimenting behavior, including the awarding of (self-)praise, as manifested on social media.These commonplace activities have been found to fulfill a wide range of functions in face-to-face interaction, discoursal and relational amongst others. However, even though the giving of compliments and praise has become a pervasive practice in online environments, it remains a largely under-explored field of study within pragmatics. Self-praise is an activity that appears at the present time to be rapidly gaining ground online, and the various functions it performs clearly also need further investigation. The different contributions to this ground-breaking volume –12 in total – aim to address this gap in research by exploring and shedding light on a number of aspects of these phenomena in a range of languages and language varieties. New socio-digital contexts are examined,supported in some cases by social networking sites not previously studied in complimenting behavior research. These include Facebook, Instagram,Renren, Twitter, as well as web forums, message boards and live text commentary. -- 'backcover'

Abstract

Self-Presentation and Self-Praise in the Digital Workplace presents the findings of an interdisciplinary study of the 'self-entrepreneurial self' and, in particular, the rationale behind its need to self-present under the current socio-economic and business conditions. It addresses the complex landscape of the levels, typologies, categories, and triggers, as well as both internal and external factors impacting self-praise in the context of a digital workplace (with the focus on enterprise social media).
