This work is intended to highlight certain discursive properties of the French narrative and descriptive proposals and thus to relaunch the debate (Giora 1983, Brandt 1990, Look 2007) on their contribution to the textual organisation. More specifically, on the basis of a corpus study carried out in the context of the focus theory (Walker et al. 1998), we suggest that (i) the functional distinction between these two types of relative (Lambrecht 1998, Gapany 2004) is not fully empirically motivated, and (ii) despite their syntactic, semantic and pragmatic resemblance to independent proposals (Emonds 1979), they lack functional autonomy, at least in terms of their ability to influence referential transitions between statements. ; International audience This article intends to shed light on some discourse properties of narrative and descriptive relative clauses in French and thereby to revive the debate (Giora 1983, Brandt 1990, Look 2007) about their contribution in text organization. More specifically, going by a corpus study realized in the framework of Centering theory (Walker & al. 1998) we suggest that (i) functional distinction between these types of relatives (Lambrecht 1998, Gapany 2004) is not fully motivated empirically, and that (ii) despite number of syntactic, semantic and pragmatic characteristics they share with root clauses (Emonds 1979), they have no functional autonomy at least as for their ability to influence referential transitions between utterances. ; This work is intended to highlight certain discursive properties of the French narrative and descriptive proposals and thus to relaunch the debate (Giora 1983, Brandt 1990, Look 2007) on their contribution to the textual organisation.

This work analyses the concepts of simulacre, transmitter and receiver across the advertising field. The latter is approached from both a semmiological and linguistic perspective. Inspired by the concept of the semmiosphere, as well as other sociological perspectives, we are studying simulacre and its representation in advertising discourse. In order to do so, it was necessary to consider the recipient of the messages concerned, by means of questions of intentionality and subjectivity, or, in other words, questions of interpretation. ; International audience This paper analyzes the concepts of simulacrum, adresser and adressee in the field of advertising. The latter is discussed in a semiotic and linguistic perspective. Inspired by the concept of semiosphere and other sociological perspectives, we study the simulacrum and its representation in the advertising discourse. To do so, we had to take into account the adressee of the advertising messages through intentionality and subjectivity issues, or, in other words, through the questions of interpretation. ; This work analyses the concepts of simulacre, transmitter and receiver across the advertising field.

Cette dernière est abordée dans une perspective tant sémiologique que linguistique. Inspirés du concept de la sémiosphère, ainsi que d'autres perspectives sociologiques, nous étudions le simulacre et sa représentation dans le discours publicitaire. Pour le faire, il a fallu prendre en considération le récepteur des ...

the Italian plural in -a, the expression of the collective in Romanian, which have a French content in new, are examples of the expression of a whole, the spatial representation of the interior, the female gender. Our contribution is based on theoretical principles of psychomeccanic language. After showing the interdependence between gender, number, animation expatiality, we present the mental development of gender and numbers and the steps leading to the individualisation of the person in his or her space. We propose a parallel between the genesis of the genus and dinumero semiological categories, on the one hand, and the acquisition of intersubjectivity, on the other. We propose a correlation between the reduction of the internal plural (mg. masc. — pl. fém.), the quantitative content (it. —ata, FR. —ée) and the evolution of representation and the ongoing decline in Romance languages. ; International audience ; the Italian plural in -a, the expression of the collective in Romanian, which have a French content in new, are examples of the expression of a whole, the spatial representation of the interior, the female gender.

cote interne IRCAM: Taffou14a International audience Peri-personal space (PPS) is defined as the space immediately surrounding our bodies, which is critical in the adaptation of our social behavior. As a space of interaction with the external world, PPS is involved in the control of motor action as well as in the protection of the body. The boundaries of this PPS are known to be flexible but so far, little is known about how PPS boundaries are influenced by unreasonable fear. We hypothesized that unreasonable fear extends the neural representation of the multisensory space immediately surrounding the body in the presence of a feared object, with the aim of expanding the space of protection around the body.To test this hypothesis, we explored the impact of unreasonable fear on the size of PPS in two groups of non-clinical participants: dog-fearful and non-fearful participants. The sensitivity to cynophobia was assessed with a questionnaire. We measured participants' PPS extent in the presence of threatening (dog growling) and non-threatening (sheep bleating) auditory stimuli. The sound stimuli were processed through binaural rendering so that the virtual sound sources were looming toward participants from their rear hemi-field.We found that, when in the presence of the auditory dog stimulus, the PPS of dog-fearful participants is larger than that of non-fearful participants. Our results demonstrate that PPS size is adaptively modulated by cynophobia and suggest that anxiety tailors PPS boundaries when exposed to fear-relevant features. Anxiety, with the exception of social phobia, has rarely been studied as a disorder of social interaction. These findings could help develop new treatment strategies for anxious disorders by involving the link between space and interpersonal interaction in the approach of the disorder.
