La cryptique chez Montaigne / Crypsis in Montaigne's EssaysKnop, Déborah 08 December 2012 (has links)
« A sauts et à gambades » : de cette formule des Essais, la critique a souvent conclu au décousu de leur écriture. Notre travail montre qu'il n'en est rien dans de nombreux chapitres des Essais, en s'appuyant sur l'idée de « cryptique » chez Ramus (Dialectique, 1555) et Canaye (L'Organe, 1589) et sur le concept rhétorique de ductus ou progression du discours : l'écrivain-dux déjoue réticences ou hostilité de son lecteur, sa repugnantia. La première partie précise, à partir des grands traités rhétoriques, dont Quintilien traduit par Gedoyn (1718), ce que recouvrent les notions de propositum, d'oratio, de sermo, de contentio, de digressio, de delectare et de repugnantia ; et, dans le domaine de la dialectique, de syllogisme et de preuve, ce qui permet d'exhumer la structure profonde de l'argumentation. La seconde partie définit la notion d'insinuatio et son pendant dialectique, la « méthode de prudence », dont Ramus donne les préceptes détaillés. Nous en tirons de nombreux outils en vue de l'analyse des textes littéraires. Nous examinons la notion de dissimulatio en rhétorique, notamment la dissimulatio artis, apanage de Socrate, lequel est si important pour Montaigne. La dernière partie expose différentes formes de ductus dans les Essais, pour séduire le lecteur et le mener sur la voie d'un progrès moral. Ce but suppose une rhétorique extrêmement sensible à ce qui « répugne » à son auditoire, comme à ce qui le « passionne ». Le cheminement ressemble de près à la méthode antique de l'exercice spirituel, qui impliquait une certaine familiarité entre auteur et lecteur, un retour sur soi concomitant et symétrique du maître et du disciple. / “A sauts et à gambades”: from this expression in the Essays, critics often came to the conclusion of a rambling speech. Our work shows that this is not the case in many chapters, by referring to the “cryptical method” in the writings of Ramus (Dialectique, 1555) and Canaye (L'Organe, 1589) and to the rhetorical concept of ductus or progression of speech in which the dux-writer circumvents his reader's opposition or hostility, or repugnantia. The first part, which is based on major rhetorical theories, including those of Quintilian translated by Gedoyn (1718), defines the notions of propositum, oratio, sermo, contentio, digressio, delectare and repugnantia ; and, in the field of dialectics, syllogism and proof. It provides a means of digging out the deep structure of arguments. The second part defines the notion of insinuatio and its counterpart in dialectics, the “method of prudence”, on which Ramus gives detailed precepts. These give us many tools for the purpose of literary text analysis. We look into the notion of dissimulatio in rhetorics, including the dissimulatio artis, specific to Socrates – Socrates is an important figure for Montaigne. The last part outlines various forms of ductus in the Essays, so as to lure the reader and lead him on the path to moral progress. This goal requires the rhetoric to be finely attuned to what the reader is averse to, or what he is passionate about. The whole closely resembles the ancient method of spiritual exercise, which involved some familiarity between the writer and the reader, a concurrent and symmetric introspection from the master and his disciple.

Previous issue date: 2014-02-07 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The research aims to study into photojournalism essays that form part of the project
"Magnum in Motion produced by the photo agency Magnum, available on the
internet and accessible to participator. The study's central purpose is to examine the
use of communication and artistic framing assigned to the limits of images in the
essays Theater of War (2011) by Moises Saman and Entre ciel et terre (2011) by
Cristina Rodero. One of the objectives will be to seek to identify the principal
characteristics of the framework identified in the essays: the first essay depicts the
last days of former dictator Muammar Gaddafi in the midst of a civil war known as the
Libyan Revolution, the second deals with the dualities of different peoples cultural
traditions and paganism rituals. The frames of the images delimit information whilst at
the same time expressing esthetic feelings, always from the photographers point of
view, constituting an audio-visual language of its own, with their own repertoire,
combination rules and use. Our theoretical framework for the study of framing uses
the authors Aumont (2004, 2006), Martin (2005), Nöth (2006) and Deleuze (1983).
Our methodological procedure will be to take into account the dynamic of each essay,
maintaining initially a spontaneous contact with the material then moving to define
reading strategies such as to identify types of framing, examine forms of image
cropping and other significant journalistic and artistic functions. / A pesquisa compreende o estudo de ensaios fotojornalísticos que integram projeto
Magnum in Motion, produzido pela agência fotográfica Magnum, disponíveis na
internet e acessados por um sujeito participador. O propósito central é examinar o
uso comunicacional e artístico de molduras atribuídos aos limites das imagens, nos
ensaios Theater of War (2011), de Moises Saman e Entre ciel et terre (2009), de
Cristina Rodero. Dentre os objetivos buscamos identificar as principais
características de enquadramentos/molduras encontradas nos ensaios: o primeiro,
retrata os últimos dias do ditador Gaddafi na Líbia em meio a uma guerra civil
chamada de Revolução Líbia; o segundo, aborda as dualidades das tradições
religiosas de diferentes povos e rituais pagãos. Os enquadramentos de imagens
jornalísticas delimitam informações e ao mesmo tempo expressam aspectos
estéticos, de acordo com o ponto de vista do fotógrafo, constituindo uma linguagem
audiovisual própria, com seus repertórios e suas regras de combinação e de uso. O
nosso aporte teórico para o estudo de enquadramentos/molduras utiliza os autores
Aumont (2004, 2006), Martin (2005), Nöth (2006) e Deleuze (1983). Como
procedimento metodológico, levamos em conta a dinâmica de cada ensaio
fotojornalístico, mantendo um primeiro contato espontâneo com o material para em
seguida definir estratégias de leitura, tais como: identificar tipos de molduras,
examinar suas formas de recorte de imagens e funções de significação jornalística e
estética.

E.K.K. Matlala : Mongwadi Wa Ditaodišo Tša Mathomo Tša Sepedi (Sepedi)Kanyane, Francinah Mokgobo 10 July 2008 (has links)
Any discussion of the growth and development of essays in Sepedi must include the name of E.K.K. Matlala. Matlala was the first author to publish a volume of Sepedi essays. This publishing of this volume, entitled Mengwalo (Essays) Puku II, by Fort Hare University in 1943 is an event of historical importance in Sepedi literature. This research study investigates Matlala’s essays. The aim of this study is to focus on all various possible types of essays, including the four types that Matlala wrote, namely descriptive, analytical, narrative and meditative essays. Matlala’s volume of Sepedi essays, Mengwalo (Essays) Puku II, consists of four essays, namely ‘Lexae’, ‘Fsika-thsipi la Ramošweu’, ‘Tato ya monnyana ke lesoxana’ and ‘Šakeng la bophelo’. Each of these four belongs to a specific category of essays. For this reason, it can be argued that Matlala is a skilled author of Sepedi essays. His skill becomes clear in an analysis of his essays, which shows that he arranges them to be in line with a clear structure, namely title, introduction, body and conclusion. This structure is generally accepted as the correct structure for an essay. As for thematic content, Matlala’s essays discuss both modernity and the days gone by. In three of his essays, Matlala writes about the importance of events that happened in the past. In the fourth essay, ‘Fsika-thsipi la Ramošweu’, Matlala depicts modernity. Matlala’s writing style is recognizably dated; he makes extensive use of loan words and the archaic language of the twenties and thirties. However, this language is important as it promotes multilingualism. Analysing the classification of Sepedi informal essays reveals that Matlala not only wrote essays but also made an attempt to elevate their status. Therefore, it could be argued that Matlala has a unique talent among the writers of Sepedi informal essays. The argument developed in this study is that Matlala is the most successful author of Sepedi informal essays who has ever been published. This study also examines the influence in Matlala’s work of his study of English essays. / Dissertation (MA (African Languages))--University of Pretoria, 2008. / African Languages / unrestricted

L2 Writing Development in Intermediate College-Level Japanese-as-a-Foreign-Language ClassroomsTatsushi Fukunaga (6622937) 15 May 2019 (has links)
Although much research has reported the effectiveness of task repetition on oral performance (Bygate, 2018), few studies have investigated its effectiveness on writing performance (Manchón, 2014), especially in languages other than English. For instance, Nitta and Baba’s (2014) longitudinal study revealed that EFL undergraduates considerably progressed their syntactic complexity and lexical aspects, but not fluency, through repeating a timed writing task. In relation to the task repetition, however, whether and how L2 learners develop their grammatical accuracy and communicative adequacy (Pallotti, 2009) has remained unclear in the literature. Furthermore, in addition to the linguistic measurements and the qualitative assessments, scant research has attempted to investigate whether any significant changes are brought about in terms of learners’ perceptions through repeating language tasks. <br>Therefore, the current study has shed new light on the developmental changes in the writing performance of Japanese-as-a-foreign-language (JFL) learners. It investigated whether any remarkable changes are brought about in terms of overall complexity, complexity by subordination, accuracy, and fluency through repeating a weekly “15-Minute Writing Task” throughout one academic semester (16 weeks) and one academic year (32 weeks). The writing task topics were considered in terms of the Cognition Hypothesis (Robinson, 2001), which states that different cognitive demands of tasks will lead to different L2 output. Regarding this point, this study explored whether there were any significant differences between two task types: descriptive and argumentative essays. JFL learners who were enrolled in an intermediate-level course at an American university engaged in the two different types of timed writing tasks.<br>First, the one-semester investigation, based on the pre/posttest analysis, revealed different patterns between the two types of writing tasks. For the descriptive essays, despite the improvements in overall complexity, complexity by subordination, and fluency with a large effect size (r ≥ .6) (Plonsky & Oswald, 2014), no significant findings were confirmed for accuracy. In contrast, in the argumentative essays, the learners improved all the linguistic aspects but with a medium effect size (.4 ≤ r < .6).<br>Second, in the one-year investigation, the JFL learners significantly improved overall complexity, complexity by subordination, and fluency during the study period. The dynamic systems approach (Verspoor & van Dijk, 2011) also unraveled the developmental trajectories to show how different variables interacted in the two different types of writing tasks, respectively, throughout the measurement period. Although there were no statistically significant differences in grammatical accuracy measures, the process of L2 writing development showed fluctuations, demonstrating that the improvements in syntactic complexity seemed to have caused many grammatical errors temporarily. Lastly, the learners’ compositions, which were also assessed qualitatively by two native Japanese speakers in terms of readability, indicated significant improvements in communicative adequacy.<br>Finally, to investigate any changes in the learners’ beliefs toward Japanese writing before and after the task repetition, the JFL learners completed the Belief Questionnaire About Writing in Japanese (Ishibashi, 2009). In addition, to examine any changes in foreign language anxiety with a focus on Japanese writing, the learners were required to complete the second-language version of the Daly-Miller Writing Apprehension Test (Cheng, Horwitz, & Schallert, 1999). The study found that the extensive writing experience had a positive impact on the JFL learners’ confidence and willingness when writing in L2 Japanese.<br><br>

Investigating the Teaching and Learning of Creative Writing in English First Additional Language in selected Grade 9 classrooms in the Western CapeNondabula, Nikiwe January 2020 (has links)
Magister Educationis - MEd / Writing is an important aspect of language learning and a tool for assessment in Basic and Higher Education across the globe. Learners need to acquire proficient writing skills to learn and to demonstrate their knowledge and creativity. Given the importance of creative writing in expressing one’s thoughts, emotions and imagination, this study sought to investigate how creative writing was taught through the medium of English First Additional Language (FAL) to Grade 9 learners in one primary school in the Western Cape province. It also sought to observe and analyse the teaching strategies employed by teachers in creative writing to Grade 9 learners who were isiXhosa home language speakers, and who were taught all the subjects (except isiXhosa language) through the medium of English (FAL). Through the lens of Vygotsky’s Social Constructivism Theory, this study explored how the learners’ social context and language played a role in the teaching-learning process. The Social Constructivism theory assumes that the home environment is a primary factor in learning and it is concerned with how learning is facilitated in the classroom. This study employed a qualitative research design by making use of classroom observations, focus group interviews with randomly selected Grade 9 learners, and an interview with the Grade 9 teacher to determine how English (FAL) creative writing was taught and the barriers encountered by learners when taught writing in this language. Data was collected in a township school in Cape Town where the majority of learners were isiXhosa home language speakers. Thematic data analysis was used to make sense of the collected data. Ethical considerations were observed throughout the data collection process. One of the key findings of this study is that the Grade 9 English teacher made use of a teacher centred approach and code-switching in the teaching and learning of creative writing through the medium of English FAL. The findings also indicate that learners had limited English proficiency due to limited exposure to this language in their home environment. This study concludes that writing in English is a challenge to Grade 9 English FAL learners, and this could impede their success in other subjects across the curriculum.
