La reprise par Victor Hugo en 1861, sous le titre "Les Misérables", du projet des "Misères" amorcé en 1845 marquait deux étapes de l'énonciation. Nous avons néanmoins choisi de considérer cette oeuvre comme un discours homogène - au sens linguistique du terme - c'est-à-dire comme une suite d'énoncés, pour en analyser le vocabulaire politique et social, considérant que la publication avalisait l'expression. L'énonciation en fait un discours dans le cadre de la communication, discours adressé à un destinataire concerné plus que quiconque, le peuple. Le projet de l'oeuvre lui confère le rôle de t

Abstract:

This degree project aims to investigate how teachers negotiate their teaching practices and what determines their choice of working methods when it comes to teaching vocabulary. Since we are interested in teachers’ thoughts and opinions regarding vocabulary teaching, a selection of English teachers were interviewed. Our theoretical background is rooted in Nation’s (2001) theories on what it means to know a word, Schmitt’s (2000, 2007) theories on how vocabulary is acquired and on Lundahl’s (2012, 2014) perspectives on traditions in the English classroom. Additionally we used research articles

Abstract:

People in society with high levels of generalized social trust and political trust are more likely to engage in civic activism and participation. Therefore, people involved in social and political groups will likely have higher levels of generalized social and political trust than the general public. What lacks in this realm of scholarship is a solid comparison of trust among people involved in social and political groups. This case-study analysis of generalized social trust and political trust among social and political groups shows the trust that is not only generated within each group, but

Twitter has become a popular data source in the recent decade and garnered a significant amount of attention as a surrogate data source for many important forecasting problems. Strong correlations have been observed between Twitter indicators and real-world trends spanning elections, stock markets, book sales, and flu outbreaks. A key ingredient to all methods that use Twitter for forecasting is to agree on a domain-specific vocabulary to track the pertinent tweets, which is typically provided by subject matter experts (SMEs).

Abstract:

The year of 1989 was for many an important year. Its affairs swept through Europe with a mighty force and resulted in the fall of the governments of Central and Eastern European countries and the disintegration of the Communist bloc. In Czechoslovakia, the process of change in 1989 was dramatic but tended to be non-violent; the events were even called euphemistically the "Velvet Revolution". The period from 1989 up to the present has been an era of major changes in Czech society. This will inevitably be reflected in the language. The Czech language before 1989 had its own typical phrases, clic

The second method is learning by sentence writing, which requires pupils to memorize new words by making up their own sentences in order to establish links between old and new knowledge. 16 pupils took part in the experiment; all were approximately 11 years old.

My hypothesis is that a re-articulation of the main issues in transcendental phenomenology as it relates to social philosophy, first in a genetic sense (as developed by Alfred Schutz), but also in a generative context (as developed by Bernhard Waldenfels), provides us with a methodological ground that can instigate a more complex account for the questions of social choice and the way in which we establish preferences.
