Communities Under Fire
Between 1914 and 1918, the Western Front passed through some of Europe's most populated and industrialised regions, such as the towns of Nancy, Reims, Arras, and Lens. This is the story of how war shaped the civilian identities of people who suffered intense artillery bombardment, military occupation, and forced displacement.
Melodies, Rhythm and Cognition in Foreign Language Learning
Melodies, Rhythm and Cognition in Foreign Language Learning is a collection of essays reflecting on the relationship between language and music, two unique, innate human capacities. This book provides a clear explanation of the centrality of melodies and rhythm to foreign language learning acquisition. The interplay between language music brings to applied linguists inquiries into the nature and function of speech melodies, the role of prosody and the descriptions of rhythmical patterns in verbal behaviour. Musical students seem to be better equipped for language learning, although melodies and rhythm can benefit all types of students at any age. In fact, in this book melodies and rhythm are considered to be a springboard for the enhancement of the learning of foreign languages.

Nationalism and History Education
History education, by nature, transmits an ‘official’ version of national identity. National identity is not a fixed entity, and controversy over history teaching is an essential part of the process of redefining and regenerating the nation. France and the United States have in particular experienced demographic and cultural shifts since the 1960s that have resulted in intense debates over national identity. This volume examines how each country’s national history is represented in primary schools’ social studies textbooks and curricula, and how they handle contemporary issues of ethnicity, diversity, gender, socio-economic inequality, and patriotism. By analyzing each country separately and comparatively, it demonstrates how various groups (including academics, politicians and citizen activists) have influenced education, and how the process of writing and rewriting history perpetuates a nation. Drawing on empirical studies of the United States and France, this volume provides insight into broader nationalist processes and instructive principles for similar countries in the modern world.
Les pratiques enseignantes entre instruire et socialiser
Si l'école a toujours eu, en tant qu'institution multifonctionnelle, à assumer plusieurs finalités, on lui demande aujourd'hui de répondre à de nouvelles fonctions, non traditionnelles, dans un contexte où les visions normatives qui prévalaient se sont éteintes. En traitant des rapports entre instruction et socialisation, la question que ce livre pose en filigrane concerne la mission que nos sociétés entendent confier à l'école. Cette question renvoie au sens et au contenu que véhiculent ces deux finalités – instruite et socialiser – dans des contextes sociaux locaux et globaux qui sont substantiellement transformés depuis quelques décennies, et qui sont dominés par le phénomène de mondialisation. Les notions d'instruction et de socialisation, tant dans leurs rapports que dans les déclinaisons qu'elles induisent, sont symptomatiques de tensions inhérentes à différentes conceptions de l'homme et, partant, des options relatives aux processus éducatifs qui les sous-tendent.
