The Phraseology of Legal French and Legal Popularisation in France and Canada
The popularisation of legal knowledge is a critical issue for equal access to law and justice. Legal discourse has been justly criticised for its obscure terminology and convoluted phrasing, which notably led to the Plain Language Movement in English-speaking countries. In Canada, the concept of Plain Language has been applied to French since the 1980s due to the official policy of bilingualism, while the concept has only been recently discussed …
Research without Films
Dinah Shurey was the only woman to found her own film company in 1920s Britain, producing six films and directing one, all of which, despite their apparent popularity, are lost. Absence of films and (auto)biography, along with the “oddness” of Shurey’s choice of military and naval melodramas, means film history has discounted her. This article explores alternative historical sources—genealogical sites, popular magazines from her family’s publishi…
On the Alternation between Complex Prepositions and Adverbial Prepositions in Esperanto, such as en la mezo de vs. meze de / en la kadro de vs. kadre de
The grammar of Esperanto allows a derived adverbial to replace the initial element in any complex prepositional phrase, thus creating a range of equivalent structures such as en la mezo de / meze de ‘in the middle of’, en la kadro de / kadre de ‘in the framework of’ etc. This ‘adverbial alternation’ raises a number of questions. Are Adv Ps interchangeable with their Complex P counterparts? Do they occur with the same frequency? Does lexicalisatio…
Worlding Cinema
Against the narrowly commercial and homogenising term ‘world cinema’ that lumps together a diversity of ‘foreign’ films as a category, the notion of ‘the local’ relativizes the idea of the ‘national’ as a singular entity. It suggests the pivoting around each other of ‘there’ and ‘here,’ thereby avoiding precisely fixed locations and calling on the dynamism of their relationship. The local, captures not only particular geo-political locations but …
Doing women’s film and television history
The Women’s Film and Television History Network UK/Ireland (WFTHN) has grown substantially over the last twelve years, establishing itself within academic scholarship and a wider public context, and connecting those interested in learning about or researching the role of women in film and television. This has not been a linear process but one of organic growth. Key to the Network’s success have been the various activities promoted by its members.…
Melodrama Unbound
Drawing on new scholarship in transnational theatrical, film, and cultural histories, this collection demonstrates that melodrama speaks to fundamental aspects of modern life and feeling. Contributors articulate new ways of thinking about melodrama that underscore its pervasiveness across national cultures and in a variety of genres.
Lexico-grammaire et textométrie
Nous examinons ici les schémas lexico-grammaticaux (LG) associés à trois verbes supports (« effectuer », « réaliser », « procéder ») dans deux corpus juridiques comparables (un corpus de directives européennes rédigées en français et leur transposition en France dans les textes de lois). A cette fin, nous utilisons Le Trameur, un logiciel de textométrie qui permet une comparaison systématique des données textuelles en mobilisant plusieurs méthode…
