La Generation Sandwich en Suisse Romande: mieux comprendre les facteurs associés avec la santé perçue afin de mieux agir en promotion de la santé [Sandwich Generation in Roman Switzerland : a better understanding of factors linked with perceived health for better acting in health promotion].

The so-called < Sandwich Generation > (SG) is characterized by concurrent and competing professional, familial, and informal caregiving workloads. These stressors pose potential health risks. However, the current knowledge about SG characteristics and perceived state of health are insufficient to allow occupational health nurses to develop evidence-based interventions designed for health promotion. We aimed to describe this population and examine the relationships between these coexisting workloads and their perceived health. This study is based on a descriptive, correlational design. Employees of a Swiss public administration completed an electronic questionnaire. Of 844 respondents, 23 % are SG members. Ages of frailed parents or parents-in-law, co-residence with the latters, children still living at home predict that employees could be members of the SG. Perceived physical health status of SG members is rated better than mental health status. The heterogeneity of SG is reflected in three clusters. Finally, physical health score is the only that differs from the other health scores adjusting for clusters and sex. This study provides a foundation for developing preventive interventions targeting the SG.

Archaeological and archaeomagnetic dating at a site from the ager Tarraconensis (Tarragona, Spain): El Vila-sec Roman pottery

A very accurate archaeological dating of a Roman site in NE Spain (El Vila-sec) was made based on the typology of pottery artifacts. Three different phases were identifi ed with activity ranging from the mid- 1st century BC to the early-3rd century AD. Analyses of bricks from kilns at El Vila-sec produced data on their stored archaeomagnetic vector. These data were compared with the secular variation curve for the Iberian Peninsula and the SCHA.DIF.3K regional archaeomagnetic model. Both, the reference curve and the model, produced probability distributions for the final period of use for two kilns from the second archaeological phase that were not used during the third phase. At a 95% con fidence level, both time distributions cover a wide chronological range including the presumed archaeological age. Both the Iberian secular variation curve and the SCHA.DIF.3K regional model proved to be suitable models for dating the site, although on their own they do not produce a single unambiguous solution. This archaeomagnetic approach could also be applied to neighbouring archaeological sites that have an imprecise archaeological age.

El marmor de Tarraco. Explotació, utilització i comercialització de la pedra de Santa Tecla en època romana Tarraco marmor. The Quarrying, Use and Trade of Santa Tecla Stone in Roman Times

Aquest és el llibre més complet que hi ha sobre la pedra de Santa Tecla i el llisós, dos materials procedents de Tarragona i molt utilitzats en època romana. Els autors, arqueòlegs i geòlegs, caracteritzen aquestes dues varietats i presenten el panorama de les seves aplicacions, i també donen pautes per identificar-les i diferenciar-les d’altres pedres que s’hi podrien confondre, com la “portasanta” o la pedra de Buixcarró.

The ager tarraconensis project (right side of river Francoli) (PAT): the application of geophysical survey to identify rural Roman settlement typologies

The methodology of the ager Tarraconensis project also included geophysical surveys aiming to distinguish different categories of rural settlements. Two geophysical techniques (resistivity and magnetometry) were combined to reveal traces of unearth structures from a selection of sites identified from the field survey. Results of geophysical surveys of these seven sites as well as conclusions obtained from this approach are discussed here.

L'autre du même : emprunts et répétitions dans le "Roman de Perceforest"

Issu de la fin du Moyen Âge, le Roman de Perceforest est le plus long texte que le Moyen Âge nous ait laissé. Il entend décrire la vie des ancêtres préchrétiens d'Arthur et de ses chevaliers en les faisant descendre d'Alexandre le Grand. Au fil de son récit, l'auteur met en place une véritable poétique de la reprise, tant externe qu'interne. Il multiplie les références à des textes préexistants issus de différentes matières et va même jusqu'à en intégrer des morceaux entiers. Il reprend par ailleurs des parties de sa propre oeuvre, n'hésitant pas à reproduire des schémas, voire des séquences narratives précises. Cette esthétique répétitive a plusieurs conséquences, tant sur l'appartenance générique du texte, sur sa construction, que sur sa réception par le lecteur. Elle est au coeur de notre étude. Nous nous intéressons plus spécifiquement à un phénomène particulier de reprise qui montre l'intégration d'une séquence préexistante dans un contexte distinct de son apparition d'origine et que nous qualifions d'emprunt. Notre travail s'organise autour d'un examen successif des différents types d'emprunts qui apparaissent au sein du texte, tant intertextuels qu'intratextuels. À terme, c'est la cohérence et l'individualité du Perceforest, ainsi que la conception de l'écriture qui anime son auteur que nous mettons en avant, tout en proposant des jalons pour une théorie générale de l'emprunt. - The Roman de Perceforest, the longest known text from the Middle Ages, aims to describe the life of Arthur's pre-christian ancestors and knights, presenting them as descendants of Alexander the Great. Along the storytelling, a genuine poetics of external and internal repetition takes place: the Perceforest s authors multiply the references to previous texts belonging to several materials, integrating sometimes entire parts of other texts. Furthermore the narrative reproduces its own patterns and particular sequences in different places of the text. Throughout this research, we consider the influence of such repetition aesthetics on the literary genre definition, on its construction as well as on the reader's reception. In this dissertation, we explore a specific category of repetitions where pre-existing sequences are embedded in a narrative context that differs from the original context of occurrence, which we called emprunt (s). Reviewing the species of inter- and intra-textual recurrences occurring within the text, we reveal some overlooked aspects of the consistency, the specificity of the Perceforest and its author's idea of writing, striving to groundwork on general theory of «emprunts» that shall thereby be laid.
