Grammar and Text
This volume brings together a collection of papers based on presentations given at the 10th and 11th Fora for Linguistic Sharing, organised by the Young Researchers Group of the Centro de Linguística da Universidade Nova de Lisboa (CLUNL) and held at Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, Portugal, on the 27th and 28th November 2015 and on the 25th November 2016, respectively. The papers are authored by young researchers in linguistics and present the results of original research in two broad areas, namely text and discourse linguistics and grammar. This volume also includes a brief history of the Forum for Linguistic Sharing written by its founders, Audria Leal, Carla Teixeira, Isabelle Simões Marques and Matilde Gonçalves; a keynote article on text linguistics by Matilde Gonçalves; and a keynote article on word formation by Maria do Céu Caetano. Given that it brings together contributions from different, yet complementary, subfields of linguistics, the book will appeal to a broad readership of linguists.
The Changing Face of the “Native Speaker”
The notion of the native speaker and its undertones of ultimate language competence, language ownership and social status has been problematized by various researchers, arguing that the ensuing monolingual norms and assumptions are flawed or inequitable in a global super-diverse world. However, such norms are still ubiquitous in educational, institutional and social settings, in political structures and in research paradigms. This collection offers voices from various contexts and corners of the world and further challenges the native speaker construct adopting poststructuralist and postcolonial perspectives. It includes conceptual, methodological, educational and practice-oriented contribut...
Problems of and Perspectives on Language Acquisition
This volume brings together a selection of articles about research conducted on language acquisition in the Baltic States, in Latvia and Lithuania; a field which has witnessed massive growth in recent years. It will stimulate the reader to ask questions, think of solutions, argue and propose counterarguments with regards to language acquisitions in this region. The driving force in this field is dialogue and argumentative discussion, not utilitarian notes and advice, and, through detailing a range of views on language acquisition problems and perspectives, this volume achieves that aim.
Language is a complex adaptive system: Explorations and evidence
The ASLAN labex - Advanced studies on language complexity - brings together a unique set of expertise and varied points of view on language. In this volume, we employ three main sections showcasing diverse empirical work to illustrate how language within human interaction is a complex and adaptive system. The first section – epistemological views on complexity – pleads for epistemological plurality, an end to dichotomies, and proposes different ways to connect and translate between frameworks. The second section – complexity, pragmatics and discourse – focuses on discourse practices at different levels of description. Other semiotic systems, in addition to language are mobilized, but...
L'étude du fonctionnement de la langue dans la discipline Français : quelles articulations ?
La discipline scolaire Français a comme spécificité à la fois de faire pratiquer la langue en situations de lecture et de production orale et écrite et de la prendre comme objet d'observation et d’étude dans ses diverses dimensions : grammaire, orthographe, lexique, morphologie verbale, etc. Depuis une cinquantaine d’années, les directives générales des différents pays de la francophonie affirment que, outre la construction d’une représentation de la langue comme système, l’enseignement de la langue est (ou devrait être) au service de la lecture et de l’écriture. Mais comment se réalise cette double finalité ? Comment penser et concrétiser les articulations que cel...
Questioning Language Contact
This volume critically exposes problems in present language contact analysis and uses empirical findings to provide answers to the following questions. What can we learn from the study of language contact for our knowledge of languages, their dynamics and their functions (systemic elaborations, language practices, semiotic developments)? How should linguistic theory incorporate the empirical findings of language contact studies, and how could these alter underlying postulates of existing models (choice of analysis and epistemic framework)? Which role has language contact been playing in the history of linguistic research and academic life? And how has this idea influenced individual researchers and their approaches?
Saussure et l’épistémè structuraliste. Saussure und die strukturalistische Episteme
More than a hundred years after the publication of Cours de linguistique générale , Saussure is still considered the ‘revolutionary founder’ of structuralism. Saussure’s name is almost symbiotically connected with the idea of structuralism. This volume opens the view from different disciplinary perspectives for a Saussurean thinking also beyond the boundaries of the structuralist epistemes.
Competence and Program-based Approach in Training
The controversies that have developed in recent years in the field of education and training around program and competency-based approaches are not without reminiscent of those which are at the origin of a reflection on the question of methods to monitor, control, organize and shape innovation in science and technology "and led to the emergence of the notion of responsibility for innovation and research "(Pellé & Reber, 2015). This book is clearly part of this type of approach. Starting from a current state of play on the issues and controversies raised by curricular and competency-based approaches (Chapters 1 and 2), this book aims at presenting new theoretical frameworks, allowing to acco...
L'enseignement et l'apprentissage de la lecture aux différents niveaux de la scolarité
S'inscrivant dans la continuité de publications précédentes, cet ouvrage réunit onze articles qui interrogent la progression de l’enseignement de la lecture au long de la scolarité obligatoire dans les quatre pays francophones (Belgique, France, Québec, Suisse). Plusieurs de ces articles portent sur différents cycles d’enseignement, dont ils soulignent les spécificités et les continuités. D’autres abordent la question de la progression en confrontant textes institutionnels et pratiques effectives, ou encore en comparant différents programmes nationaux. Une partie importante des articles, enfin, traite de situations d’apprentissage effectives ou de performances d’élèves...
