Cette étude envisage la traduction du Voyage au bout de la nuit de Céline en roumain sous l'angle de la transmission d'une poétique qui se construit sur des valeurs rythmiques. La thèse, qui prend comme fil conducteur la métaphore du jazz,se concentre sur les aspects lexicaux du rythme. Dans la première partie, l'effet dev ariation, source de rythme jazzé, est étudié à travers l'analyse de la traduction du pronom on. L'examen de la variation prend également comme champ d'application l'usage particulier de la variation graphique. Autour de la variation minuscule / majuscule, Céline organise d'autres variations fonctionnelles et textuelles : la variation mention / usage, la variation métaphore / allégorie, la variation polyphonique des points de vue énonciatifs. La deuxième partie, placée sous le signe de l'improvisation, souligne le rôle du néologisme dans la création de ce rythme textuel. Nous étudions le traitement, dans la traduction, des inventions formelles, tout comme la réponse donnée à un certain type d'ambiguïté, que Céline crée en mettant en valeur le sens étymologique des mots. La troisième partie identifie des principes qui caractérisent le fonctionnement poétique du texte, en les signalant comme des défis pour la traduction : la récurrence lexicale, le foisonnement sémantique, l'effet de littéralité des tours figés, la remotivation des rapports arbitraires entre les signifiants. La thèse aborde le sujet dans une perspective précise, analytique, qui se situe au plus près du texte / This study examines the technical and poetic aspects of the translation of Célines Voyage au bout de la nuit, through comparative analysis of its Rumanian versions.The notion of rhythm provides the studys anchoring principle. Here the rhythm ofCélines prose is apprehended in its lexical dimension, with particular attention to a 5guiding theme, namely that of jazz music. In the first part, the jazz theme isfore-grounded through an examination of Célines orthographic variations andspecifically to his idiosyncratic use of small and capital letters. It also brings to bearthe varied effect of the use of the pronoun on. The second part of the thesis isdevoted to the topic of improvisation. It presents an analysis of ways in which formal,functional and semantic neologisms are rendered in Rumanian translations. Finally,the third part seks to identify several governing principles of a poetic dimension inCélines novel, which often pose a challenge to translators, such as lexicalrecurrence, semantic profusion, literal usage and the arbitrary relation of signifiers.This thesis proposes an analytical contribution to scholarschip on Céline through aclose, « practico-theoretical reading of the text

La présente thèse a pour objectif d’étudier le rôle des facteurs cognitifs (traitement phonologique et visuoattentionnel et mémoire lexicale orthographique) dans l’acquisition des connaissances orthographiques implicites et explicites. Afin d’examiner les liens entre les différents facteurs cognitifs et les connaissances orthographiques, une étude longitudinale a été réalisée à l’aide d’un échantillon de 338 enfants suivis de la maternelle 5 ans à la fin de la deuxième année du primaire. À la fin de la maternelle, les enfants ont été évalués à l’aide d’une épreuve d’orthographe approchée et d’épreuves évaluant les facteurs cognitifs en jeu dans l’apprentissage du langage écrit (traitement phonologique, traitement visuoattentionnel et mémoire à court et à long terme). Les connaissances lexicales orthographiques explicites de ces mêmes enfants ont été évaluées en fin de première et de deuxième années. Le premier article de cette thèse rapporte les données d’une étude réalisée auprès des enfants scolarisés en maternelle 5 ans. Cette étude vise l’établissement d’un lien entre, d’une part, la capacité de traitement phonologique, visuoattentionnel et de mémoire lexicale orthographique et, d’autre part, les connaissances orthographiques implicites des enfants qui n’ont pas encore eu d’enseignement formel de l’écriture. Les résultats indiquent que, contrairement à ce qui a été longtemps avancé, la capacité de traitement phonologique n’est pas le seul facteur cognitif à intervenir, puisque la capacité de mémoire lexicale orthographique à long terme ainsi que la capacité visuoattentionnelle contribuent de façon importante et indépendante à l’acquisition des connaissances orthographiques implicites des enfants de la maternelle 5 ans. La mémoire lexicale orthographique est même le facteur qui apporte la plus forte contribution. La deuxième étude de cette thèse vise à déterminer, parmi les facteurs cognitifs évalués en maternelle, celui ou ceux qui permettent de prédire les connaissances orthographiques explicites ultérieures, c'est-à-dire celles de première et de deuxième années du primaire. Les résultats de cette deuxième étude indiquent que les préalables nécessaires à l’acquisition des connaissances orthographiques lexicales sont les capacités de traitement phonologique ainsi que les capacités de la mémoire à court et à long terme. La troisième étude de cette thèse a pour but de mettre en lumière le rôle prédictif que joue le niveau des connaissances orthographiques des enfants de maternelle quant au niveau ultérieur de leurs connaissances orthographiques en première et deuxième années, en lien avec les capacités cognitives qui sous-tendent l’apprentissage du langage écrit, en particulier le traitement phonologique, le traitement visuoattentionnel et la mémoire lexicale orthographique. Les résultats de cette dernière étude permettent de montrer que, parmi les facteurs évalués en maternelle, le niveau des connaissances orthographiques implicites apporte une contribution unique à l’ensemble du niveau des connaissances orthographiques ultérieures. L’influence des connaissances orthographiques précoces sur l’acquisition ultérieure n’est pas surprenante. En effet, la première étude avait montré que le niveau de ces connaissances est fonction non seulement de la capacité de mémoire orthographique lexicale mais également de la capacité de traitement phonologique et visuottentionnel. Les résultats issus de ces trois études présentent un intérêt non négligeable dans la compréhension de l’acquisition du langage écrit. En effet, ces recherches ont permis de montrer qu’avant même l’apprentissage formel de l’écrit, l’enfant témoigne de connaissances implicites non négligeables sur la langue écrite et que c’est à partir de ces connaissances que s’élaboreront ses connaissances explicites ultérieures. Ces connaissances sont tributaires de multiples facteurs parmi lesquels la capacité de mémoire lexicale orthographique, facteur cognitif dont la contribution n’avait pas été démontrée jusqu’à présent. Les résultats de cette recherche montrent qu’il est possible d’envisager des outils de dépistage précoce qui permettront d’identifier les enfants à risque de présenter des difficultés spécifiques d’apprentissage du langage écrit. Ce dépistage permettrait de mettre en place des interventions mieux ciblées et précoces, ce qui réduirait ainsi l’impact des difficultés sur les apprentissages scolaires. / The objective of the present thesis was to study the relation between cognitive factors (phonological treatment, visuo-attentional and lexical orthographic memory) and the acquisition of implicit and explicit orthographic knowledge. A longitudinal study was conducted on a sample of 338 children from the kindergarten to their second year of primary schooling. At the end of kindergarten, the tasks were an invented spelling test and tests assessing the cognitive factors at issue in the apprenticeship of written speech (phonological treatment, visuo-attentional treatment and short and long term memory). The lexical explicit orthographic knowledge of these same children was evaluated at the end of their first and second year of school. The objective of the first study was to establish a link between the phonological treatment, visuo-attentional and orthographic lexical memory abilities and implicit orthographic knowledge of the children, before their formal apprenticeship of written speech. The results showed that, contrary to what was long been advanced, the phonological treatment is not the only cognitive factor into play since the long term orthographic lexical memory ability as well as the visuo-attentional ability properly and independently contribute to the acquisition of orthographic knowledge. The orthographic lexical memory is the factor which provides the strongest contribution. The aim of the second study was to determine which cognitive factors assessed in kindergarten predict the subsequent explicit orthographic knowledge in first and second grades. The results showed that the necessary conditions to the acquisition of lexical orthographic knowledge are phonological treatment ability, as well as short and long term memory abilities. The goal of third article was to bring to light the predictive role played by the spelling knowledge of kindergarten children to their orthographical knowledge in first and second grades, in connection with the cognitive abilities which are at the root of the apprenticeship of the written spelling, more particularly the phonological treatment, the visuo-attentional treatment and orthographic lexical memory. The regressive analyses showed that, among the factors investigated in kindergarten, the implicit orthographical knowledge brings a unique contribution to the subsequent spelling knowledge evaluated by different orthographic tasks in first and second grades. The important impact of early orthographical knowledge on the subsequent acquisition is not surprising because the first study proved that this knowledge is not only depending on the capability of lexical orthographical memory but also on the capability of phonological treatment. The results coming from those three articles present a non-negligible interest in the understanding of the acquisition of the written speech. Indeed, these studies permitted to prove that, even before the formal apprenticeship of the writing, the child shows a genuine implicit knowledge of the written language. Moreover, and it is from this knowledge that the subsequent explicit knowledge will be built up. This knowledge is dependent upon multiple factors among which are the ability of orthographic lexical memory, a cognitive factor whose contribution was not yet proven. The results of this research showed that it is possible to consider early screening measures in order to identify children susceptible to present specific apprenticeship difficulties in the written language. This screening would allow an early and better targeted intervention, which would then reduce the impact of difficulties on the academic apprenticeships.

Serve in the theoretical basis also the work of Auroux (2009), whose considerations aim at the historian's role specification of linguistic ideas, which in our view is consistent with our role of historiographers of linguistics. As to the objectives, that approach prompts us to the understanding of how to unveil not only the linguistic thinking, but also political and ideological positioning of the Renaissance grammarians of Portuguese, Joao de Barros and Fernão de Oliveira, as well as the Portuguese intellectuals the twenty-first century, Vasco Graya Moura and Antonio Emiliano - who demonstrated against the Orthographic Agreement of 1990 - about the linguistic and orthographic issues of language. Corroborates the justification for carrying out our work, the prospect of Schilieben-Langue (1993, p.138), who matter to the description of the history of argumentative communities in which they discuss issues that relate to languages. Thus we have the background of human intervention in the language, or rather the Linguistic Policy, and more specifically, the issue of orthographic standard that is recurrent in history. As a hypothesis, we suggest that there is a confluence between the linguistic thought of men of two seasons marked precisely by their political-ideological attitude towards the language and orthographic issues. Now, taking into account that our analysis is constructed in order to relate ideas and linguistic practices in its social, cultural, political and institutional context (Cf. Swigger, 2009), and that the methodology of historical writing, which involves aspects of categorization, deep categorization and well-structured exhibition which allows the past to be rebuilt according to the categorization of the historian (Swiggers, 2012, p. 43), we can say, regarding the conclusions reached, this research fits into the hall a much continuist historiography, than, exactly, discontinuist. Aside from that, we can also say that what we had achieved here is the realization of a two historiographical dialogue, however, marked by an intersection point, which is observed by the very parallelistic structure of the writing of the thesis. Getting marked, precisely at this point of intersection, the continuities in the linguistic thought of the men of the two centuries that have positioned themselves politically and ideologically, before the language, worrying about the orthographic issues existing at different historic moments. Finally, we conclude that these men demonstrated, above all, a sense of ownership linked to a nationalist defense of the Portuguese language / Esta tese fundamenta-se teoricamente na Historiografia Linguística, disciplina cujos métodos, instituídos por Koerner (1996, 2014) e Swiggers (2009, 2012), permitem-nos delinear nosso objeto de estudo, qual seja: o pensamento linguístico manifestado pelos homens do século XVI e do século XXI a respeito das questões ortográficas que envolveram a Língua Portuguesa nos recortes temporais estabelecidos. Serve-nos de base teórica também o trabalho de Auroux (2009), cujas considerações visam a especificação do papel do historiador das ideias linguísticas, o que a nosso ver, se coaduna com o nosso papel, de historiógrafos da linguística. Quanto aos objetivos, este percurso impele-nos ao entendimento da forma como se desvelam, não só o pensamento linguístico, mas também o posicionamento politico-ideológico dos gramáticos renascentistas da língua portuguesa, João de Barros e Fernão de Oliveira, assim como dos intelectuais portugueses do século XXI, Vasco Graça Moura e Antônio Emiliano - que se manifestaram contra o Acordo Ortográfico de 1990 - a respeito das questões linguísticas e ortográficas da língua. Corrobora com a justificativa para a realização de nosso trabalho, a perspectiva de Schilieben-Langue (1993, p.138), para quem importa fazer a descrição da história das comunidades argumentativas, nas quais se discutem questões que dizem respeito às línguas. Assim, temos como pano de fundo a intervenção humana na língua, ou melhor, a Politica Linguística, e mais especificamente, a temática da norma ortográfica que se faz recorrente na historia. Como hipótese, sugerimos que haja uma confluência entre o pensamento linguístico dos homens das duas épocas, marcado, justamente, por sua postura política-ideológica frente à língua e as questões ortográficas. Ora, levando em consideração que nossa analise se constrói de forma a relacionar ideias e práticas linguísticas a seu contexto social, cultural, politico e institucional (Cf Swigger, 2009), e ainda que a metodologia da redação histórica, que envolve os aspectos de categorização, categorização profunda e exposição bem estruturada, que permite que o passado seja reconstruído de acordo com a categorização do historiógrafo (Swiggers, 2012, p. 43), podemos afirmar, em relação as conclusões obtidas, que esta pesquisa se insere no hall de uma historiografia muito mais continuísta, do que, propriamente, descontinuaste. Afora isso, resta-nos dizer que o que, aqui, se concretizou foi a realização de dois diálogos historiográficos, porem, marcados por uma ponto de intersecção, que se observa pela própria estrutura paralelística da redação da tese. Ficando marcadas, justamente nesse ponto de intersecção, as continuidades no pensamento linguístico dos homens, que se posicionaram, politica e ideologicamente, nesses dois séculos, perante a língua, preocupando-se com as questões ortográficas que a envolveram em diferentes épocas. Por fim, concluímos que esses homens demonstraram, sobretudo, um sentimento de posse vinculado a uma defesa nacionalista da língua lusitana

Studiens syfte var att undersöka stavningen i 20 elevtexter skrivna av elever som antingen var i eller utan lässvårigheter när de gick i årskurs 2. Undersökningen fokuserade på stavningens korrekthet och olika typer av stavfel samt jämförde likheter och skillnader mellan texterna skrivna av elever i och utan lässvårigheter. Materialet bestod av elevtexter som skrevs under den fria narrativa skrivuppgiften i det nationella ämnesprovet i svenska i årskurs 3. Tio av elevtexterna var skrivna av elever som var i lässvårigheter i årskurs 2 och tio texter var skrivna av elever utan lässvårigheter i årskurs 2. För att kunna besvara studiens första forskningsfråga skapades frekvenslistor som presenterade antalet korrekt och inkorrekt stavade ord. För att kunna besvara studiens andra forskningsfråga användes analysmetoden Spelling Sensitivity Score (Masterson & Apel, 2010) där varje ord i elevtexterna analyserades med avseende på korrektheten i fonem-grafem-korrespondensen genom poängsättning från 3–0. Ett korrekt stavat fonem fick 3 poäng. Fonologiska stavfel tilldelades 2 poäng, ortografiska stavfel 1 poäng och utelämnade/tillagda grafem 0 poäng. Resultaten visade att eleverna utan lässvårigheter skrev texter med en signifikant större andel korrekt stavade ord än eleverna i lässvårigheter och att eleverna i lässvårigheter skrev texter som innehöll en signifikant större andel fonologiska stavfel än eleverna utan lässvårigheter. Vidare visade resultaten att texterna skrivna av eleverna utan lässvårigheter uppvisade en marginellt större andel ortografiska stavfel och utelämnade eller extra tillagda grafem än texterna skrivna av elever i lässvårigheter. Sammantaget antyder våra resultat att det är viktigt att stärka den fonologiska medvetenheten hos elever i lässvårigheter för att utveckla deras stavningsförmåga.

This thesis addresses the problem of constructing 3D CAD models from 2D engineering drawings of the object. Procedures for each step in the popular bottom-up approach are described. In each of the steps in this approach, the capability is extended to handle classes of parts not handled by present art. These include auxiliary views, parts with curved entities that are inclined to all viewing directions, and views that result in non-manifold edges in the surface model. In addition this thesis also presents procedures to extract features from the solid model constructed so that the 3D model can be manipulated and modified within current CAD systems. In order to enable extracting the construction history, detecting symmetry in the part is essential. This thesis presents an algorithm to detect symmetry (both global and partial) in the part given the solid model of the part. Working of the procedures is illustrated using benchmark parts from the literature. The thesis concludes with a discussion on scope for further work.

This dissertation is a study of a remarkable change that came about in the kind of drawings that architects used to present their work between the decades of 1960 and 1990. Drawings in this period, visually rich and compositionally complex, seemed to mark an entirely new sensibility towards their function; their goal seemed to be not so much to clearly depict the forms of a proposed building, but to instead focus on its conceptual aspects. In fact, in several cases, drawings seemed to be treated as graphic projects in their own right, over and above the work they presented. This trend was accompanied by two other developments. Around the same time, there was a sudden increase in theoretical interest in drawings within the architectural community leading to a flurry of published articles, essays and books on the topic. And all this happened to coincide with the time that the Postmodern movement came to dominate architecture. The study aims to understand the relationship between these trends, and to develop a better understanding of the reasons for these changes to have occurred. It does so by, first, developing a theoretical framework to help understand the nature and impact of the changes in drawings. Next, it presents a detailed historical account of these changes. This is followed by an in-depth study of a single architect, James Stirling, to show how the new types of drawings were not simply a means to present ideas, but played a formative role in design as well. Apart from developing a contextualized historical account of an important development in contemporary architectural history, the study also finds that the change in the drawing practice and the theoretical interests were not simply an outcome of Postmodern cultural theory of the period, but were instigated by concerns that arose from within architecture itself. It thus offers a useful case-study on how changes in disciplinary practice are brought about.

The topic discussed is straightly linked to the determination of a phonological identity of Portuguese. The study focuses on linguistic and extralinguistic aspects, which allow two different views on the subject. The first, based on social-historical grounds, retakes previous reflections on anthroponyms and their relevance to different people and cultures since ancient times. Under this perspective, the survey deals with discursive issues related to the act of naming people. The second view, based on structural linguistic grounds, is the main focus of the study, which is essentially conducted in the light of non-linear phonological models. By means of phonological contrastive analysis, similarities and differences are highlighted concerning the source language, American English (AE) and the target language, Brazilian Portuguese (BP). The corpus comprises anthroponyms typical of the English language as well as proper names whose spelling refer to this idiom. The names selection was based on attendance sheets from State Schools in the city of São Luís, MA. Recordings were carried out with both native English and Portuguese speakers, aiming at mapping the main phonological processes employed by these subjects when producing the foreign anthroponyms. Subjective matters were investigated through interviews that point out motivational reasons parents had for choosing foreign athroponyms; users satisfaction with their own name, as well as their appreciation for the English language. Following data transcriptions, the research presents the main observed adaptations motivated by speakers' native phonological system, such as: a) addition of the epenthetic vowel [i], resulting...

Foram realizadas gravações com falantes nativos do IA e falantes nativos do PB, com o propósito de identificar os principais processos fonológicos desencadeados por esses informantes ao produzirem prenomes tipicamente derivados da língua inglesa. Por meio de entrevistas, investigam-se questões de ordem subjetiva, como fatos que motivaram a escolha do nome, satisfação do usuário com o nome e admiração pela língua inglesa. Após as transcrições dos dados, foram mapeadas as principais adaptações... / The primary purpose of this thesis is to outline phonetic and phonological adaptations made by Brazilian speakers while pronouncing foreign anthroponyms, especially those derived from English. The topic discussed is straightly linked to the determination of a phonological identity of Portuguese. The study focuses on linguistic and extralinguistic aspects, which allow two different views on the subject. The first, based on social-historical grounds, retakes previous reflections on anthroponyms and their relevance to different people and cultures since ancient times. Under this perspective, the survey deals with discursive issues related to the act of naming people. The second view, based on structural linguistic grounds, is the main focus of the study, which is essentially conducted in the light of non-linear phonological models. By means of phonological contrastive analysis, similarities and differences are highlighted concerning the source language, American English (AE) and the target language, Brazilian Portuguese (BP). The corpus comprises anthroponyms typical of the English language as well as proper names whose spelling refer to this idiom. The names selection was based on attendance sheets from State Schools in the city of São Luís, MA. Recordings were carried out with both native English and Portuguese speakers, aiming at mapping the main phonological processes employed by these subjects when producing the foreign anthroponyms. Subjective matters were investigated through interviews that point out motivational reasons parents had for choosing foreign athroponyms; users satisfaction with their own name, as well as their appreciation for the English language. Following data transcriptions, the research presents the main observed adaptations motivated by speakers’ native phonological system, such as: a) addition of the epenthetic vowel [i], resulting...
