1	Mortuary Sealing Among the Maya Duncan, William N. 01 January 2014 (has links) In the Maya region, covering architecture and human remains in white marl has traditionally been interpreted as an act of defacement that accompanied some termination rituals. Recently, researchers have shown that such covering was a form of ritualized wrapping or sealing and could occur in the absence of other signs of desecration, as a part reverential termination. Here, I build on this work to argue that such sealing is not necessarily part of termination rites at all and could occur independently in mortuary contexts. I also suggest that such sealing is a distinct subset of other types of mortuary wrapping. Decoupling sealing from termination and exploring its relationship to other forms of wrapping helps refine our understanding of mortuary and ritual categories in the Maya area. body preparation funerary wrapping mortuary treatment ritualized sealing sacred bundles Sociology and Anthropology
2	L’art oratoire chez les Bapunu du Gabon : pour une rhétorique interactionnelle / Oratory in Punu Traditional Society : an Interactional Approach Nzamickale, Damien 06 March 2012 (has links) Dans les assemblées traditionnelles des Bapunu du Gabon, l’exercice de la parole constitue toujours un « événement de communication » (communicative event). Cette étude, qui porte sur l’art oratoire de ce peuple bantu d’Afrique centrale, en est une démonstration manifeste. À partir du cas de deux types de « palabre » à la fois différents et apparentés, à savoir le mariage traditionnel et le jugement coutumier, l’auteur nous plonge au coeur d’une rhétorique interactionnelle particulière. Il nous montre que l’art oratoire punu a un caractère tout à la fois dialogique et monologique : les orateurs, au cours de ces événements communicatifs, se donnent la réplique dans l’« espace de discours » qu’ils occupent tour à tour. Mais ces interventions ― contributions individuelles à l’échange ― correspondent, en fait, à des tirades au cours desquelles se déploient à la fois l’argumentation et un certain nombre de procédés rhétoriques qui mettent à contribution l’auditoire. / In ritualized encounters of the Bapunu in Gabon, there is no doubt that speech is always a communicative event. This dissertation deals with two types of speech events – traditional weddings and customary trials. In these two different though related events, the author gives evidence of a very specific interactional rhetoric. He shows that punu oratory presents aspects of dialogue and aspects of monologue all at the same time. In fact, each orator comes to take the « speechfloor » in order to answer other orator’s contradictions. But these dual contributions to the interaction are intrinsically tirades where argumentation is displayed, and some rhetoric processes are designed to seek the public’s reaction. On the whole, the demonstration leads us to a comprehensive and insightful approach to Punu oratory.
