Society, languages and ideologies in the oasis of Siwa (Egypt) : listening to people's voices / Società, lingue e ideologie nell’oasi di Siwa (Egitto) : il punto di vista dei parlanti / Société, langues et idéologies dans l’oasis de Siwa (Egypte) : le point de vue des locuteursSerreli, Valentina 31 March 2016 (has links)
Cette thèse constitue un travail d’ethnographie linguistique de l’oasis de Siwa, une enclave amazighe située dans le désert occidental égyptien. Après des siècles d’autonomie et d’indépendance effective de l’Égypte, Siwa a été inclue au cours du XXème siècle dans le système politique égyptien à travers un processus de changement général touchant aux aspects linguistique, politique et social. Plus récemment, elle a commencé également à (re)découvrir son appartenance à une sphère amazighe internationale. Bien que Siwa soit un terrain de recherche extrêmement intéressant, aucune étude sociolinguistique n’y a été menée jusqu’à présent. Ce travail se veut une contribution visant à combler cette lacune. La recherche adopte une approche pluridisciplinaire basée sur des outils théoriques développés en sociolinguistique et en anthropologie linguistique. Le référent théorique principal est le domaine d’étude des attitudes et idéologies linguistiques. La méthode de collecte des données combine la réalisation d’entretiens ethnographiques et l’observation participante. L’étude identifie les dynamiques d’usage linguistique dans l’oasis tout en les présentant du point de vue des locuteurs et discute les mécanismes et les idéologies qui sont à la base de leurs attitudes linguistiques. Elle suggère que la diversification sociolinguistique qui a récemment remplacé l’homogénéité à Siwa est liée à la variation des attitudes linguistiques en fonction de variables sociales données et qu’elle est observable à travers l’étude des attitudes elles-mêmes. Ce travail dépeint ainsi une communauté multiforme à un moment de transformations socio-économiques et de changement sociolinguistique en cours. / The present thesis proposes a linguistic ethnography of the oasis of Siwa, an Amazigh enclave situated in the Western Egyptian desert. De facto independent for centuries, it is only during the 20th century that this area started undergoing processes of modernization and Arabization with a consequent inclusion in the national (Egyptian) and the international (Amazigh) arenas. Although representing an interesting field for sociolinguistic research, this subject has not attracted scholarly attention so far and this work is a first attempt to fill that gap.This research has a multidisciplinary approach built on sociolinguistic and linguistic anthropological theories. It falls into the field of language attitudes and ideologies’ studies, and it developed a combined method including ethnographic interviewing and participant observation. The thesis presents the dynamics of language use within the oasis from an insider perspective and discusses the mechanisms and the ideologies underlying both speakers’ practices and attitudes, arguing that the emerging differentiation of linguistic practices is related to the attitudinal variation across specific social categories, which adhere to different ideologies. The study portrays a multiform community in a phase of socio-economic transition and sociolinguistic change in progress.
