O Carste de Lagoa Santa e a Serra do Cipó, que compõem a área da pesquisa, abrangem parte da Região Metropolitana de Belo Horizonte-RMBH, centro do estado de Minas Gerais. Possuem inúmeros sítios arqueológicos em abrigos sob rocha calcária e de quartzito, com diversos tipos de grafismos rupestres; pintados, picoteados e incisos. Boa parte desses grafismos é atribuída à Tradição Planalto, elaborada nessa região, pelo menos, a partir do Holoceno Médio. Inúmeros conjuntos estilísticos sucessórios e temáticos atribuídos a essa tradição foram identificados e reorganizados, buscando, sempre que possível, realizar analogias e correspondências entre as duas regiões componentes. Foram ainda identificadas outras unidades ou expressões gráficas não-Planalto em níveis picturais, intermediários e recentes, que, em alguns casos, indicam possíveis influências de outras regiões do país. Também foram propostas para os conjuntos de figuras picoteadas, variações estilísticas que congregam repertórios temáticos peculiares. As incisões rasas, por sua vez, apresentam dimensões e visibilidades variadas, inclusive miniaturas que não haviam sido consideradas em estudos anteriores. A observação de padrões de exploração de utilização do espaço internos dos abrigos para a execução das figuras, levando em consideração os diferentes suportes rochosos, a interação das figurações com as preexistentes, além da distribuição das expressões gráficas de alta e baixa visibilidade nos sítios e na paisagem, foram fundamentais para a proposição de panorama crono-estilístico mais detalhado, levando em consideração as alterações, diferenças e similaridades estilísticas ao longo do tempo. / The Lagoa Santa Carste and the Serra do Cipó, comprises the research area, covering part of the metropolitan region of Belo Horizonte-RMBH, center of Minas Gerais state. Numerous archaeological sites have shelters in limestone and quartzite, with various types of rock art, painted perforated and incised. Much of this artwork is attributed to the Tradição Planalto, stablished in this region, at least from the Middle Holocene. Several sets stylistic and thematic succession assigned to this tradition have been identified and rearranged, seeking, where possible make analogies and correspondences between the two regions components. Other units or non-Planalto Intermediate and recent pictorial expressions levels were identified which, in some cases, indicated possible influences of traditions from other regions of the country. Combinations of dotted figures, stylistic variations that bring unique themed repertoires have also been proposed. The shallow incisions in turn, have varying sizes and visibility, including miniatures that had not been considered in previous studies. The observation of pattern of use of the internal space of shelters for the execution of the figures, taking into account the different rock media, the interaction of figurations with the background, beyond the distribution of graphic expressions of high and low visibility sites and landscapes, were fundamental to the proposed landscape of chrono-stylistic more detailed, taking into account the changes, stylistic differences and similarities over time.

[pt] Marca de identidade cultural, uma vez que diferem de povo para povo, os vocábulos expressivos são convencionais em cada comunidade lingüística e precisam, portanto, ser considerados no contexto do ensino/aprendizagem de segunda língua para estrangeiros por constituírem-se elementos importantes para a comunicação. Este trabalho apresenta, analisa e classifica, conforme critérios estilístico-funcionais, o uso em contexto de um conjunto de vocábulos expressivos onomatopaicos e não onomatopaicos observados no discurso cotidiano informal do eixo Rio-São Paulo durante o período compreendido entre o início do segundo semestre de dois mil e três e maio de dois mil e seis. Com base nas ocorrências que compõem o corpus do trabalho, verifica-se uma grande margem de variação funcional e semântica dos vocábulos expressivos, reflexo da habilidade do brasileiro em lidar com o contexto em um nível elevado de abstração. Verifica-se ainda que esses vocábulos são elementos reveladores de inúmeros aspectos da cultura subjetiva do brasileiro. / [en] Expressive words are marks of cultural identity as they differ among people. They are conventional in each linguistic community and therefore need to be considered in the context of teaching/learning of a second language for foreigners as they constitute important elements of communication. This paper presents, analyses and classifies according to stylistic and functional criteria the contextual use of a set of onomatopoeic and non-onomatopoeic expressive words observed in the daily informal speech of the Rio-São Paulo axis within the period between August, 2003 and May, 2006. From the occurrences that constitute the corpus described in the paper, one can notice a wide range of functional and semantic variation of expressive words reflecting the ability of Brazilian people to cope with context in a high level of abstraction. One can also observe that these words reveal uncountable aspects of the Brazilian subjective culture.

Cette étude propose une exploration des stylèmes récurrents dans les écrits de Leibniz, dédiés aux thèmes de la théodicée. L’analyse répond à une triple exigence : répertorier les stylèmes leibniziens les plus fréquents, en retracer les sources et les modèles pour ainsi identifier leur fonction logique et leur rôle architectonique à l’intérieur des structures textuelles. L’étude est articulée selon trois grands chapitres qui correspondent aux différentes phases génétiques marquant l’évolution de la réflexion leibnizienne sur ces thèmes et, corrélativement, aux trois ordres de phénomènes stylistiques avec lesquels l’analyse textuelle a coutume de se confronter : les champs notionnels et sémantiques ainsi que les figures microstructurales et macrostructurales. Parallèlement, cette recherche entreprend une critique de la littérature dédiée à la tropologie leibnizienne. L’idée centrale de ce travail – qui se détache méthodologiquement de la discipline appelée Literature&Science autant qu’il se détache des présuposés théoriques admis par G.G. Granger dans son Essai d’un philosophie du style – est d’emprunter les techniques analytiques utilisées dans le champs de la stylistique littéraire pour révéler les structures sous-jacentees à l’architecture des textes leibniziens. L’enquête, conduite à partir de ces présuposés, a permis de contribuer à éclaircir certains des problématiques de la philosophie leibnizienne les plus débattues par la critique, notamment la supposée adhésion du jeune Leibniz au volontarisme, l’interprétation de la célèbre image des deux labyrinthes et certaines oscillations théoriques persistantes dans les écrits de théodicée de l’âge mature. / This thesis offers a systematic exploration of the recurring stylemes in Leibniz’ works wich are dedicated to the theodicy topics.The analysis answers to a triple requirement: to catalogue the most frequent stylemes; to track the fonts and patterns out of them and to identify their logical function and architectonic role within the text structures.The study is set up in three main chapters, which correspond to the three different phases in the evolution of Leibniz’s thought, likewise to the three orders of stylistics phenomena which the text analytics usually confronts with: semantic and notion fields and macro-level and micro-level figures. In parallel, the research conducts a critical confront with the literature dedicated to Leibniz tropology,The central idea of this study – which distances itself methodologically from the discipline called Literature&Science as much as from the theoretical presuppositions endorsed by G.G. Granger in his Essai d’une philosophie du style (1968) – is to borrow the analytic techniques used in the literary stylistics field in order to disclose the structures which are subjacent to Leibniz texts’ architecture. The research based on such assumption contributed to clarify some core issues of Leibniz philosophy among the most frequently debated by critics: the supposed adhesion of young Leibniz to voluntarism, the interpretation of two the labyrinths and certain theoretical persistent oscillations in the theodicy writings of maturity period.

Les poèmes de Guillevic constituent des tentatives sans cesse réitérées de dire l’ineffable du monde, de le nommer et d’apprivoiser un monde vécu comme une menace. Ces poèmes présentent donc l’actualisation des verbes être et avoir dans des énoncés définitoires, des tours présentatifs et des structures clivées, à une très haute fréquence. Par ailleurs, ces énoncés s’écartent régulièrement de la norme syntaxique. Cette thèse se propose de fonder un travail d’analyse stylistique à partir de l’étude syntaxique et sémantique des verbes être et avoir en prenant pour unité d’analyse le texte – c’est-à-dire en considérant ces verbes comme ne prenant tout leur sens que dans leurs rapports avec l’ensemble du poème où ils s’insèrent – pour mettre en évidence le désir qu’a le poète de lutter contre l’instabilité et la fragilité d’un univers, sans cesse sous la menace d’un délitement, en lui donnant substance. Nous montrerons également que la poétique guillevicienne est une poétique du fragment : se caractérisant par ses lacunes, ses trouées, cette écriture est apte à dire un univers en miettes, sous le signe de la déchirure et de l’isolement. Mais elle est plus précisément le lieu d’une tension entre fragmentation et cohésion : l’écriture chez le poète est fondamentalement poiein et a une fonction réparatrice : il s’agit de retisser des liens entre les hommes et le monde et d’apprendre à vivre ensemble. Poésie à dimension éthique, elle s’efforce de définir un nouvel ordre, en abolissant les hiérarchies dans et par le langage : les constituants du réel et mots dans la phrase ont tous une même importance. Enfin, définir êtres et choses permet au poète de construire un projet ontologique : d’une part, être, c’est mener une inlassable enquête pour comprendre (au propre comme au figuré) le monde, d’autre part, la réalité étant maîtrisée, être, c’est vivre dans la plénitude de l’instant. / Guillevic’s poems are endlessly-repeated attempts to tell the ineffable in the world, to name it and to tame reality which is felt as a threat. These poems very often include the verbs "être" and "avoir" in definitional phrases, in turns of phrases which indicate something exists, in cleft sentences. Let it be noted that these sentences quite regularly break with commonly accepted grammatical rules. In this thesis, we intend to make a stylistic analysis which will rely on the syntactic and semantic study of the verbs "être" and "avoir". This study will use the text as a unit for analysis which implies that we consider that these verbs are meaningful only in so far as they connect with the whole poem they are part of. Our purpose is to bring to light the poet’s desire of giving substance to a world which is under constant threat of crumbling down, and fighting against its instability and frailty. We’ll also show that Guillevic’s poetics is a poetics of fragments. This writing features gaps, loopholes, elliptic phrases, and is well-suited to tell about a world which is falling apart, a lonely and fractured world. But it is more precisely the seat of a tension between splitting up and cohesion : for the poet, writing is fundamentally "poiein " and has got a repairing function. It consists in weaving again bonds between human beings and the world and in learning to live together. This poetics with an ethical dimension tries to define a new order, abolishing hierarchies in and through language : all the constituents of reality and the words in the sentence share the same importance. At last, defining living beings and things allows the poet to build an ontological project : on the one hand, being is leading an unremitting investigation to understand the world, on the other hand, and so far as reality is under control, being is living in the fulfilment of the instant.

Aucune étude systématique dans le domaine de la linguistique française n’a porté spécifiquement sur le morphème etc. Nous proposons de cerner les enjeux de cet objet linguistique et littéraire problématique, en diachronie puis en synchronie. Notre travail s’ouvre sur les questions de l’origine et la morphosyntaxe de etc. En effet, l’histoire de la langue permet d’observer le processus de figement partiel de la séquence « coordonnant + adjectif substantivé » et dans un même temps, de distinguer deux grands types d’emplois du morphème. Ces deux types d’emplois établissent un critère de classement pertinent pour toute étude synchronique portant sur la question du etc. De fait, si l’emploi de etc. correspond toujours à une pratique de l’interruption, il intervient soit à la fin d’une énumération, soit entre deux segments textuels. Cette partition nécessite deux niveaux d’analyse, le premier syntaxique, le second lié aux enjeux énonciatifs du texte.Nous avons donc appliqué ce principe de classement aux 350 occurrences de etc. appartenant à un corpus de six textes stendhaliens : De l’Amour, Racine et Shakespeare, Promenades dans Rome, Le Rouge et le Noir, Lucien Leuwen, Vie de Henry Brulard. Le cœur de notre travail se présente à la fois comme un classement de la totalité des occurrences du morphème et comme une analyse des enjeux d’occurrences choisies, à l’échelle phrastique ou textuelle. Une telle étude permet d’aborder un certain nombre de problématiques touchant à la l’utilisation du morphème etc. : effets d’ellipses et d’échos, enjeux des réduplications du morphème, jeux sur l’implicite, logiques référentielles mises en place par l’auteur, portée des ruptures énonciatives et conséquences sur la lecture. Nous entendons enfin montrer que etc. est un ponctème rythmant dont l’impact stylistique est systématiquement exploité par Stendhal. Révélateur d’une écriture qui donne à voir autant qu’elle laisse deviner, le etc. participe de la logique moqueuse, « cryptique » et conversationnelle des textes Stendhaliens. / No systematic study in the field of French linguistics has specifically focused on the morpheme etc. The purpose of this work is to analyse the linguistic and literary issues of this problematic object, first in diachrony and then in synchrony. Our study begins with the question of the origin and of the morphosyntax of etc. Through the history of the language we can observe the partial fossilisation of the sequence ‘coordinating conjunction + nominalised adjective’; we can also identify two main types of use of the morpheme. These two types establish a relevant criterion for the classification of any synchronic study on the issue of etc. If the use of etc. always corresponds to a practice of interruption, it can either take place at the end of an enumeration or in between two segments of text. This partition requires two levels of analysis, a syntactic one and one related to the enunciative issues of the text.We applied this ranking principle to 350 occurrences of etc. belonging to a compilation of six Stendhalian texts: De l’Amour, Racine et Shakespeare, Promenades dans Rome, Le Rouge et le Noir, Lucien Leuwen, Vie de Henry Brulard. The core of our work consists in both establishing the typology of the occurrences of this morpheme as well as the analysis of issues prompted by selected occurrences, on a phrasal or textual level.This study addresses a number of issues relating to the use the morpheme etc.: effects of ellipses and echoes, issues of reduplication of the morpheme, effects of the implicit, referential logics set up by the author, scope of the enunciative ruptures and their effects on the reader. Finally we intend to show that etc. is a beating ‘puncteme’ (acting as a modulating ‘punctuation mark’) whose rhythmical and stylistic impact is systematically exploited by Stendhal. Etc. is an essential part of the mocking, ‘cryptic’ and conversational logic of the works of Stendhal, revealing a writing which lets the reader see as much as it lets him guess.

Cette thèse se propose d’étudier le style indirect libre dans l’œuvre de Pier Paolo Pasolini à travers un axe de recherche qui peut, schématiquement, se rattacher à deux champs: le champs poétique, concernant l'activité littéraire et cinématographique de l'auteur et le champs théorique, où le problème de la forme esthétique devient l'occasion pour l'étude des principes linguistiques etsémiotiques qui en permettent la réalisation. Ce double parcours s'articule à son tour en quatre phases de développement: la phase de la « régression » théorisée dans les années quarante pour expliquer divers processus relatifs à l’emploi du dialecte en littérature ; celle de la « connexion sentimentale », notion tirée des Cahiers de prison de Antonio Gramsci pour décrire le rapport entre les intellectuels et les classes subalternes ; celle du discours indirect libre en tant que tel, qui se trouve à la base de lapoétique des romans romains des années cinquante, et qui est également présent dans d’autres œuvres élaborées plus tard ; et finalement la phase de la subjective indirecte libre, théorisée dans les années soixante pour décrire le style indirect libre au cinéma.La régression, la connexion sentimentale, le discours indirect libre, la subjective libre indirecte constituent le point de contact entre le parcours poétique et dans le même temps théorique de l'auteur. La régression dans la parole de l’autre, ou, comme au cinéma, dans le regard de l’autre, représente en dernière instance la tentative de l’auteur de traduire sur le plan littéraire et cinématographique la réalité de conflits historiques et existentiels. / This doctoral thesis studies the free indirect style in Pasolini's works through a double path of research. On one hand it takes into account his literary and cinematic production; on the other it studies the linguistic and semiotic principles on which its free indirect style hinges. This double path has been crossed in the light of four notions that Pasolini developed in his theoretical essays along his artisticactivity. The first one is the “regression”, elaborated in the 40s in order to describe the usage of the Friulian dialect of his early poems. The second one is the “sentimental connection”, which Pasolini discovered in Gramsci's Prison Notebooks and he employed to analyse the relationship between intellectuals and subaltern classes. The third one concerns the free indirect discourse used in Pasolini's Roman novels of the 50s and studied from a linguistic and semiotic point of view in some essays. The last one is the free indirect subjective theorised in the 60s to describe the cinematic adaptation of the free indirect style.Regression, sentimental connection, free indirect discourse and free indirect subjective are the most important notions of Pasolini's free indirect style. They show how the author established itslinguistic, political and sentimental relationship with the subalterns that populates his literary works aswell as his movies.

L’attribution d’un style à un auteur peut constituer un enjeu problématique. Certains « cas » surprennent, tel le cas du Roman de Violette. Au-delà de l’enjeu socio-littéraire, un enjeu stylistique s’impose. Trois voies de la recherché s’ouvrent : celle de l’analyse de l’écriture selon chacun des « auteurs supposés », celle de l’analyse biographique et historique; celle de la composition et configuration linguistique du matériau verbal constituant le « style » où l’analyse quantitative apporte sa contribution. À partir du corpus étudié (Le Roman de Violette, Une Aventure d’amour d’Alexandre Dumas et Les Cousines de la colonelle de la Marquise de Mannoury d’Ectot) la question a été posée de l’attribution de l’oeuvre publiée sous les noms d’Alexandre Dumas-père et de la Marquise de Mannoury d’Ectot. Pour atteindre cet objectif, il a été nécessaire d’appliquer plusieurs méthodes de type philologique : enquête biographique et contextuelle, analyse des biographies et des correspondances, analyse linguistique et stylistique couplée à des méthodes d’analyses quantitatives.Pour l’attribution des œuvres, la thèse croise diverses approches statistiques. Celle liée à la « théorie de reconnaissance des formes » élaborée au laboratoire d’Études linguistiques appliquées de l’Université d’État de Saint-Pétersbourg – expérimentée pour la première fois sur la langue française – est apparue décisive quant aux résultats obtenus. Elle permet de conclure, à partir de l’analyses systématique d’éléments syntaxiques, que Le Roman de Violette appartient à Mannoury d’Ectot. Or, les résultats de l’analyse littéraire et biographique laissent à supposer que l’idée du texte est à Dumas. / The attribution of a style to an author may constitute a problematic stake. Certain "cases" surprise, such as the case of Le Roman de Violette, published under the names of Alexandre Dumas-father and Henriette de Mannoury d’Ectot. Beyond the socio-literary stake, a stylistic stake leads. Three different ways open to the search: first, the biographic analysis; second, the stylistic analysis; third, the composition and the linguistic configuration of the verbal material constituting the "style", a search for which the quantitative analysis will be used. From the studied corpus (Le Roman de Violette, Les Cousines de la colonelle of Henriette de Mannouryd’Ectot, Une aventure d’amour of Dumas) the question of the role of Dumas and Mannoury d’Ectot in the creation of Le Roman de Violette was asked. To reach this objective, it turned out necessary to apply several methods of philological analysis: biographic anaysis, analysis of archival documents, linguistic and stylistic analysis coupled with quantitative methods. For the attribution of the novel, the thesis crosses different approaches. That based on the "theory of pattern recognition” elaborated in the Laboratory of Applied Linguistic Studies of the Saint-Petersburg State University - used for the first time on the French language - seemed decisive to obtain our results. This method allows to conclude, from the systematic analysis of syntactical elements, that the novel «Le Roman de Violette» was created by Mannoury d’Ectot, however the literary analysis gives a handle to suppose that the plot of the novel belong to Alexandre Dumas.

The project examines how German- and English-speaking translators of selected Maigret novels by the Belgian crime writer Georges Simenon have dealt with cultural and linguistic specificity, with a view to shedding light on how culture and language translate. Following a survey of different theories of translation, an integrated theory is applied in order to highlight what Simenon’s translators have retained and lost from three selected source texts: Le Charretier de la Providence (1931), Les Mémoires de Maigret (1951) and Maigret et les braves gens (1961). The examination of issues of linguistic and cultural specificity is facilitated by application of an integrated theory of translation coupled with the methodology devised by Hervey, Higgins and Loughridge (1992, 1995 and 2002). In addition, consideration of paradigms of detective fiction across the three cultures involved, and Simenon’s biography and wider oeuvre, help elucidate the salient features of the selected source texts. In view of the translators’ decisions, strategies for minimising various types of translation loss are presented. While other studies of translation theory have examined literary and technical texts, this study breaks new ground by focussing specifically on the comparative analysis of detective fiction in translation.

En deskriptiv visuell innehållsanalys genomfördes med en korpus bestående av vetenskapliga artiklar från 30 topprankade tidskrifter jämnt fördelade på de tre disciplinerna matematik, medicin och utbildningsvetenskap, med syfte att undersöka om det fanns ett samband mellan tidskrifternas disciplintillhörighet och den grafiska formgivningen. Kartläggningen omfattade layout (bl.a. sidformat, spalter, marginalstorlek, användning av grafiska element, placering av tabeller, figurer och pagina) och typografiskt utseende hos titel, rubriker, brödtext och abstrakt (t.ex. teckenstorlek, textjustering, teckengrovlek, typsnitt, färg och radavstånd). Resultaten visar att disciplinerna använde olika men även gemensamma konventioner i sitt grafiska utseende. Matematik uppvisade enkelspaltig layout med liten typografisk variation, genomgående användning av typsnitt från familjen Transitional eller Transitional/Didone för hela dokumentet, avsaknad av kulört färg och sällan användning av grafiska element. Medicin uppvisade större variation med användning av kulört färg, icke-centrerad typografi med både sansseriff- och seriff-typsnitt, grafiska element och ramar som förstärker det ofta använda dubbelspaltiga gridsystemet. Utbildningsvetenskap uppvisade en grafisk design som återfanns i båda disciplinerna, men påminde mest om matematik till utseendet. Kodbok ingår i sin helhet som bilaga. Uppsatsen i sig är delvis formgiven med utgångspunkt i de erhållna resultaten. / A descriptive visual content analysis was conducted on research articles from 30 academic journals with highest impact factor equally distributed between Mathematics, Medicine and Education research, to examine whether a correlation could be established between academic discipline and graphic design conventions used. The survey included layout aspects (e.g. size of pages and margins, text columns, use of graphic elements, placement of tables, visuals and page numbers) and typographical appearance of title, sub-headings, body copy and abstract (e.g. character height, weight, alignment, typeface, use of colour and inter-line distance). The results show that the disciplines used different but also shared some common graphic design conventions. In Mathematics often a single-column layout was used, with a small typographic variation, using a single Transitional or Transitional/Didone typeface for the entire document, not using any colour and seldom using any graphical elements. Medicine showed greater variation, using colour, non-centered typography combing sans-serif and serif typefaces, graphical elements and frames emphasising the often used double-column grid system. Education research shared appearance common for both disciplines, leaning mostly towards Mathematics. This thesis is in its entirety written in Swedish and is typeset partially in accordance with the findings from this survey. Code book is included.

The aim of this study is to investigate the occurrence of sexist language-use in the British online newspaper The Daily Mail. The material consists of 162 articles that were analysed by using feminist stylistics. The scope of the study was limited to selected features from feminist stylistics at word- and discourse-level. The features of linguistic sexism analysed were the use of gendered generic words, naming of females and males and how female and male characters are described. The gender of the journalists was also analysed to examine if it affected the language-use in terms of sexism. The results show that linguistic sexism is expressed to some extent at both word-level and discourse-level. At word-level linguistic sexism is expressed inthe generic use of some masculine words, the difference of how first name and surname are used to refer to women and men and in the use of titles. At the level of discourse linguistic sexism is expressed in the difference of how women and men are referred to in terms of their relationship to others and in terms of appearance. The gender of the journalist did not show any significance for the language-use in terms of sexism. Considering the limited material of the study, the results might not be suitable for generalisations. The results are nonetheless interesting and it can be concluded that the toolkit of feminist stylistic is relevant to this day and that linguistic sexism exists to some extent in the online version of The Daily Mail.
