TL;DR: The role of connecteurs in the construction of the cohesion textuelle and in the evolution of l'information has been investigated in this article, where a paraphrase of a connecteur in the context of French-Persanophone learners is presented.
Abstract: Dans cette recherche consacree a l'emploi des connecteurs a l'ecrit par des apprenants persanophones de francais langue etrangere, nous avons etudie leur contribution a l'organisation des textes, ainsi que le role de ces connecteurs dans la construction de la cohesion textuelle et dans l'evolution de l'information. Apres avoir observe les differences structurelles entre la langue francaise et la langue persane, surtout en ce qui concerne les connecteurs, nous avons forme l'hypothese que la langue maternelle de nos apprenants pourrait contribuer a l'emploi errone des connecteurs. Dans cette optique, nous nous sommes inspires des theories relatives a l'analyse d'erreurs et a l'analyse contrastive. Celles-ci nous ont permis dans un premier temps de formuler une typologie des erreurs relevees, et dans un second temps de proposer une explication des erreurs constatees. L'analyse de l'emploi de differents types de connecteurs dans les productions ecrites d'un groupe d'etudiants iraniens a revele des points interessants a la fois sur les competences des apprenants mais egalement a propos de leurs besoins langagiers. Cette recherche a confirme notre hypothese initiale tout en la nuancant, car elle demontre que le recours a la langue maternelle ne conduit pas inexorablement a un emploi errone des connecteurs en francais L2.

TL;DR: An analysis of the system of complement markers in Ossetic (Iranian; Indo-European), a language of the Northern Caucasus, in the light of semantic parameters which have been elaborated in research on complementation over the last few decades.
Abstract: This paper presents an analysis of the system of complement markers in Ossetic (Iranian; Indo-European), a language of the Northern Caucasus. The semantics of non-finite forms and subordinating conjunctions in Ossetic have previously been described in reference grammars and works dedicated to subordination (cf. Abaev 1950; Kulaev 1959; Gagkaev 1956; Bagaev 1982). However, most of the constructions involved have only been dealt with in isolation up to this point. In particular, the factors that influence the presence or absence of the correlative pronoun/adverb and the competition between the various complement subordinators remain underdescribed. I consider the different types of complementation in Ossetic in the light of semantic parameters which have been elaborated in research on complementation over the last few decades, such as the oppositions of fact vs. event vs. proposition and presupposition vs. assertion. On the basis of these parameters, I try to explain the distribution of the complementation strategies found. The data presented here were collected by elicitation, from the Ossetic National Corpus (http://www.ossetic-studies.org/iron-corpus/search/?interface_language=en), and from texts recorded during fieldwork. The elicited data were collected in the years 2010-2012 from speakers of Iron Ossetic from Vladikavkaz, Alagir, and Ardon, in the course of work on the “Corpus Linguistics” project of the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences and on RFH projects No 13-04-00342 and 14-04-00580. I would like to thank Madina Darchieva and Fatima Aguzarova, whose help was invaluable for double-checking the collected material. Examples elicited during fieldwork are given without reference, while examples taken from recorded oral texts are labelled TEXT and examples from the Ossetic National Corpus are labelled ONC. The paper is structured as follows. The first section is dedicated to the semantic parameters relevant for the choice of complement construction. In the second section, I consider the Ossetic data.

TL;DR: The authors proposes that Beckett's works are less aporetic scenarios of deferral and undecidability than meticulous representations of the largely unarticulated convergent behaviors constituting forms of life.
Abstract: Ludwig Wittgenstein's closely related critiques of language, Cartesian skepticism, inner criteria, and hermeneutics have instructive parallels in the work of Samuel Beckett, whose avowed interest in Wittgenstein's philosophy elucidates, for example, the treatment of expectation in Waiting for Godot, of solipsism in Company, and of rule following in Endgame and What Where. Wittgenstein's insistence that interpretation is not compulsory but remedial, resting on a primitive rule-following competence that permeates our “forms of life” and thus our language, endorses the antimetaphysical dramaturgy Beckett developed while directing stage and screen productions of his own writing. Adapting Wittgenstein's concept of “family resemblance” to an exemplary conjunction of philosophy and literature, this essay proposes that Beckett's works are less aporetic scenarios of deferral and undecidability than meticulous representations of the largely unarticulated convergent behaviors constituting forms of life. As a director, Beckett could draw from Wittgenstein clarifying confirmation of an aesthetic practice that, like the Philosophical Investigations, begins “where interpretation comes to an end.”

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the problems lived by a team of indexers organized in network that coordinates its activities by using discussion forum and follow the coding problem solving that occurs in this project.
Abstract: This article presents the problems lived by a team of indexers organized in network that coordinates its activities by using discussion forum. The author aim to follow the coding problem solving that occurs in this project. The ongoing achievement of indexation raises up the question of the social, cognitive, political and quantitative representation and leads actors to compose associations’ networks (between sources of information, keywords, databases and indexers). The willing to collaborate and to communicate constraints them to coordinate and find agreement; discussions show the diverse and unstable forms of agreement processes.

TL;DR: In this paper, a genealogie genealogique vise a montrer que la conception dite " theorie du reflet" a ses racines dans le pessimisme romantique.
Abstract: Ce travail s’est construit en partant d’une declaration de Ferdinand de Saussure presentant le langage comme un « milieu intermediaire ». Ce propos de Saussure n’a d’abord existe que sous la forme orale, mais fut transcrit dans les notes de cours de ses auditeurs ; il figure finalement dans l’edition critique du Cours, due a Rudolf Engler (que l’on doit considerer comme le veritable editeur de Saussure). Librement inspire de la Genealogie de la morale de Nietzsche, cette etude poursuit le but d’enqueter genealogiquement sur les presupposes des principales ecoles linguistiques du 20eme siecle (neo-grammairiens, structuralisme, grammaire generative, fonctionnalisme, cognitivisme a la maniere de Rosch et Varela). L’enquete genealogique vise a montrer que la conception dite « theorie du reflet » a ses racines dans le pessimisme romantique. Ce nouveau positionnement devrait permettre d’elaborer une nouvelle orientation (justifiant la revendication d’une « fondation constitutive »), par le recours methodique a la phenomenologie ainsi qu’a l’outil de la Gestalt, issue de la psychologie de meme nom. Il faut voir le « milieu intermediaire » comme metaphore equivalente aux champs semantiques, ce qui conduit a integrer dans ce travail un examen critique des precurseurs dans cette voie que sont Jost Trier et Els Oksaar.
