Análisis del radioteatro a través de la obra de Julio Cortázar : Adiós, Robinson

SOMMAIRE Cette recherche est basée sur l’étude de la pièce Adieu, Robinson, écrite par Julio Cortazar pour le théâtre radiophonique en 1977. Publiée en 1984, elle a été rééditée en 1995 –après le décès de son auteur– et diffusée, vers la fin des années 70, sur tous les continents. L’analyse de l’œuvre a été réalisée en tenant compte de deux orientations différentes mais complémentaires: l’une plus formelle ou technique et l’autre idéologique. Il y a, d’abord, l’étude du théâtre radiophonique comme discours qui utilise un langage spécifique –le langage radiophonique– et suppose un “théâtre écrit pour la radio”, et ce, à partir des œuvres de Rudolf Arnheim, Armand Balsebre et Etienne Fuzellier. Puis, il y a une mise en contexte de la pièce en faisant référence à la situation particulièrement mouvementée de l’Amérique latine, pendant les années 70, en mettant en rapport le sujet de la “décolonisation” avec celui de la libération. Avant d’aborder le sujet du théâtre radiophonique –ce qui inclut ses origines en Argentine, les premières pièces et les caractéristiques du format– et en prenant comme référence l’auteur Jésus Martin-Barbero, nous revoyons brièvement l’histoire du mélodrame, ce spectacle de forte valeur émotionnelle présent en Amérique latine, notamment, dans le théâtre radiophonique et le feuilleton télévisé. Suivant une revue des caractéristiques concernant le style d’écriture de Cortazar, nous analysons la pièce théâtrale d’un point de vue qui tient compte, principalement, des catégories d’espace et de temps, particulièrement importantes dans l’étude d’une œuvre radiophonique. Finalement, cette étude prétend démontrer que le but de Julio Cortazar, en écrivant Adieu, Robinson, n’était pas de proposer un passe-temps radiophonique, mais plutôt d’atteindre un public plus vaste via un puissant moyen de communication en lui offrant une fable anticolonialiste. Mots-clés : Cortazar, Robinson Crusoé, décolonisation, sémiologie du théâtre radiophonique.

Archipel suivi de L'étrangère en son royaume : la psyché du lieu chez Marguerite Duras

À partir de courts récits, la narratrice reconstitue le passé d’une famille. Le personnage central, une petite fille, est la narratrice qui retrace les événements qui ont mené à l’éclatement de la cellule familiale. Cette histoire autobiographique est rédigée au « elle » dans un souci de se distancier de ce passé. La petite fille a grandi et la narratrice qu’elle est devenue se réapproprie son héritage : la possibilité d’écrire cette histoire. Dans l’œuvre de Marguerite Duras, les lieux sont souvent sollicités pour participer à la narration des événements. Dans La pute de la côte normande et Écrire, deux œuvres autobiographiques rédigées au « je », les lieux sont ceux du quotidien. Ceux-ci sont révélateurs de la psychologie de l’auteure et se mêlent à la préoccupation d’écrire. Ainsi, Marguerite Duras, ses lieux et son écriture se retrouvent-ils liés par le langage de l’auteure, lequel témoigne du vide laissé par la mort de son père.

Convergences/divergences : le dialogue intermédial dans Vues et visions de Claude Cahun

Ce mémoire étudie les rapports texte/image dans Vues et visions de Claude Cahun, première œuvre composite créée en collaboration avec la peintre graphiste Marcel Moore. L’objet littéraire protéiforme, appartenant au genre de l’iconotexte (Alain Montandon), instaure un dialogue intermédial entre le textuel et le visuel au point de déconstruire l’horizon d’attente du lecteur : celui-ci est incité à lire et à voir alternativement les poèmes en prose ainsi que les dessins de sorte que les frontières qui définissent l’espace du littéral et du figural apparaissent poreuses. Subdivisé en deux chapitres, notre travail s’attachera dans un premier temps à mettre en lumière le rôle de l’écriture qui intègre certains dessins de Moore. En nous inspirant de l’iconolecture (Emmanuelle Pelard), nous tenterons d’effectuer des liens entre la plasticité et la signification littérale des signes linguistiques qu’illustrent ces images-textes tout en étudiant les correspondances thématiques et formelles qu’elles entretiennent avec les poèmes de Cahun. Le second chapitre étudiera la manière dont le figural investit le texte littéraire en adoptant une approche intermédiale. Après avoir abordé la figure du double, une partie de l’analyse sera consacrée à la figure de l’allusion, une stratégie d’écriture pour introduire le visuel au sein du textuel, ce qui nous permettra d’entrer en matière pour étudier « l’image-en-texte » (Liliane Louvel). Enfin, l’effet-tableau ainsi que l’anamorphose seront employés comme cadre d’analyse afin de penser le dialogue qui se noue entre le pictural et le texte littéraire dans Vues et visions.

Offline Handwritten Malayalam Character Recognition Based on Chain Code Histogram

Optical Character Recognition plays an important role in Digital Image Processing and Pattern Recognition. Even though ambient study had been performed on foreign languages like Chinese and Japanese, effort on Indian script is still immature. OCR in Malayalam language is more complex as it is enriched with largest number of characters among all Indian languages. The challenge of recognition of characters is even high in handwritten domain, due to the varying writing style of each individual. In this paper we propose a system for recognition of offline handwritten Malayalam vowels. The proposed method uses Chain code and Image Centroid for the purpose of extracting features and a two layer feed forward network with scaled conjugate gradient for classification

A comparative study on the "American innocence" issue : Henry Jame's The American and Daisy Miller : a study

Esta dissertação aborda a questão da “inocência americana” em duas obras do escritor norte-americano Henry James, empregando conceitos da Literatura Comparada como base para a análise dos textos escolhidos: The American e Daisy Miller: A Study. Portanto, os conceitos de intertextualidade, influência e alteridade são fundamentais para o estabelecimento das confluências e divergências entre as duas obras. Este trabalho também apresenta uma análise, com base na teoria comparatista da interdisciplinaridade, entre a obra literária Daisy Miller: A Study e o filme Daisy Miller, dirigido por Peter Bogdanovich. O tema recorrente nas obras analisadas, o da “inocência americana”, foi abordado por Henry James em grande parte de sua produção literária, sendo um reflexo de sua própria experiência como o “outro”, bem como de suas observações sobre seus compatriotas, quando confrontados com os valores e tradições vigentes na Europa, no século XIX. James alcançou seu merecido lugar no cânone literário ocidental, graças ao seu estilo incomparável, o qual foi aperfeiçoando durante toda sua carreira e até hoje é parâmetro para escritores contemporâneos.

Mala na mão, pé na estrada: à procura de uma pedagogia das singularidades

We make many journeys during our lifetime. In each of them we accumulate experiences that result in an amount of knowledge that constitutes our history. The dissertation presents one of these journeys: that one I took along with students of Pedagogia da Terra project from Universidade do Estado do Rio Grande do Norte UERN to think about the knowledge within their memories in their way from countryside to city seeking for education. I used as main references to this task the ideas of Edgar Morin about Method as Strategy, implication of the subject in knowledge, pertinent knowledge, and knowledge reconnection. And from Paulo Freire I used the concepts of cultural identity assumption and dialog. I built as resource of method the metaphor of the suitcase, called by me the trunk of memory treasures . The use of this cognitive operator makes possible for those students bring their memories to the surface and share them collectively, by the process I name as auto-social- biographical narratives. The explicitness of the memories they choose to reveal by means of these narratives permitted me to understand the metamorphosis of these knowledge since their childhood to nowadays. In order to present an archeology of knowledge within these life histories I chose a narrative writing style concerned with simplicity and lightness, where I use the description of facts and discussions occurred during this journey. My main arguments in systematizing this experience are: scientific production can and should be grounded on knowledge diversity and on a more sensible approach to phenomena; education and pedagogy need to take as starting point and fuel for their practices the singularities of the subjects, their life history, educational background and knowledge resulting from both. Teacher s formation programs which students have mixed, rural and urban, background should value cognitive experiences built in the interaction with that knowledge closer of a sensible logic, deeper grounded in land and nature. Doing so, education can contribute to join diverse knowledge against monocutural forms of thinking and educational practices

La musa bambina. 1911-2011: un secolo di letteratura mitologica per ragazzi in Italia tra storia, educazione e narrazione

Questa ricerca mostra l’evoluzione della letteratura mitologica per ragazzi in Italia. Il primo libro italiano di mitologia per bambini è stato pubblicato nel 1911 (lo stesso anno di un’importante e violenta guerra coloniale tra l’Italia e la Libia): la scrittrice italiana Laura Orvieto pubblicò allora “Storie della storia del mondo”, in cui riunì antichi racconti greci per giovani lettori. Queste storie erano ispirate al libro mitologico per bambini “Il libro delle meraviglie” di Hawthorne (titolo originale “A Wonder Book for Girls and Boys”). In seguito molti scrittori italiani scrissero libri mitologici per giovani lettori: serie importanti di libri di mitologia per bambini furono pubblicate durante il regime mussoliniano – talvolta per diffondere l’ideologia fascista della superiorità romana. Durante questo periodo, i libri mitologici spesso mostravano uno stile letterario solenne. Dopo la seconda guerra mondiale, la letteratura mitologica per bambini cambiò lentamente prospettiva: gli scrittori italiani cominciarono ad usare il mito per parlare di problemi sociali (p.e. Gianni Rodari descriveva re Mida come un capitalista) e per spiegare le diverse condizioni umane (p.e. Beatrice Masini fa riferimento alle dee e alle eroine greche per descrivere la condizione femminile). La ricerca analizza anche la relazione tra mito e scuola in Italia: i racconti mitologici hanno sempre fatto parte dei programmi scolastici italiani per bambini dagli 8 agli 11 anni. Le riforme scolastiche – deliberate negli anni ’20 e ’40 – fissarono pratiche didattiche sui miti ancora oggi in uso. I racconti mitologici erano soprattutto un supporto per gli studi storici e letterari. Tuttavia, negli ultimi decenni, i miti sono divenuti un importante aiuto per gli insegnamenti scientifici e artistici.

Natural Language Checking with Program Checking Tools

Written text is an important component in the process of knowledge acquisition and communication. Poorly written text fails to deliver clear ideas to the reader no matter how revolutionary and ground-breaking these ideas are. Providing text with good writing style is essential to transfer ideas smoothly. While we have sophisticated tools to check for stylistic problems in program code, we do not apply the same techniques for written text. In this paper we present TextLint, a rule-based tool to check for common style errors in natural language. TextLint provides a structural model of written text and an extensible rule-based checking mechanism.

ANTROPOLOGIA SEMÍTICA. UMA ANÁLISE EXEGÉTICA DA PERÍCOPE DE DT 6,1-9, COM APROXIMAÇÃO AO VOCÁBULO LEV.

A presente pesquisa tem como objeto de investigação o vocábulo lev na perícope de Dt 6,1-9. Este vocábulo também é utilizado em várias partes do Antigo Testamento. Assim a pesquisa também faz um levantamento deste uso na perspectiva de diversos autores. No primeiro capítulo se apresentam os blocos que constituem a moldura do livro do Deuteronômio com o objetivo de identificarmos o contexto maior onde encontra-se a perícope de Dt 6,1-9. No segundo capítulo partimos de uma análise exegética da perícope ressaltando os vários aspectos da linguagem, como estilo literário, gênero literário, e análise de conteúdo. Nesta parte também consta uma análise das realidades concretas subjacentes à produção do texto, como assento histórico, contexto social, político e ideológico. No terceiro capítulo apresentase o amplo campo semântico do vocábulo lev no Antigo Testamento na perspectiva de diversos autores. Tal delineação tem por objetivo explorar a polissemia do vocábulo, e assim neutralizá-la, buscando o sentido mais apropriado do vocábulo para a perícope de Dt 6,1-9.

Using generative models for handwritten digit recognition

We describe a method of recognizing handwritten digits by fitting generative models that are built from deformable B-splines with Gaussian ``ink generators'' spaced along the length of the spline. The splines are adjusted using a novel elastic matching procedure based on the Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm that maximizes the likelihood of the model generating the data. This approach has many advantages. (1) After identifying the model most likely to have generated the data, the system not only produces a classification of the digit but also a rich description of the instantiation parameters which can yield information such as the writing style. (2) During the process of explaining the image, generative models can perform recognition driven segmentation. (3) The method involves a relatively small number of parameters and hence training is relatively easy and fast. (4) Unlike many other recognition schemes it does not rely on some form of pre-normalization of input images, but can handle arbitrary scalings, translations and a limited degree of image rotation. We have demonstrated our method of fitting models to images does not get trapped in poor local minima. The main disadvantage of the method is it requires much more computation than more standard OCR techniques.
