VALORISING CONTENT THROUGH FORM IN INTERACTIVE COMMUNICATION

VALORISER LE CONTENU PAR LA TECHNIQUE DE FORME DANS LA COMMUNICATION INTERACTIVE

Author(s): Monica Mariana Ioani / Language(s): French / Issue: 4/2012

Keywords: message; interactive communication; form; instruments; valorisation of content

In the interactive communication, it is not enough to learn to speak well, it is necessary to be able to communicate. Public speaking, negotiation, debating, leading a meeting, managing a team, or keeping up conversation require learning and studying. Analysis shows that over 70% of interpersonal communication is not necessarily reason- based and that the key of an interactive relationship is the non-verbal aspect. The present paper discusses the instruments which can be used in a large number of professional or social situations; these instruments represent the art and capability to valorise the content through form. Communication is a continuous interaction and the two ways of transmitting the message, i.e. the information-based and the relationship-related ways, explain the fact that we communicate with the others and not in front of the others.

DAVID JONES’ THE ANATHEMATA: IS MODERN EPIC POSSIBLE?

DAVID JONES’ THE ANATHEMATA: IS MODERN EPIC POSSIBLE?

Author(s): Martin Potter / Language(s): English / Issue: 01/2010

Keywords: genre; epic; modernity; modernism; fragmentation

The epic poem is a problematic genre in the modern era, and might be regarded as having ceased to thrive in Western Literature since the Renaissance. Attempts have been made in criticism to assert that the genre of the epic poem has been replaced by the novel, a genre representative of the modern world view. I this article I shall discuss the reasons for the modern era being a sterile period for the genre of the epic poem. I shall suggest that modern thought is characterised by a scepticism and fragmentariness inconsistent with the cosmic vision which the full epic seeks to express. Traditional epics portray a cosmos in which natural and supernatural realms interact with each other, and modern writers rarely clearly portray the coexistence and interaction of two such realms. The Anglo-Welsh modernist poet and painter David Jones, however, wrote as one of his two main literary works The Anathemata, a long poem which is epic in scope and theme, while embodying at the same time a modern fragmentariness. That he is able to attempt and, arguably, succeed in presenting an epic vision during the time of high modernism is due, I shall argue, to his adherence to a pre-modern world view (including an evocation of natural and supernatural realms and their interaction), adapting it, however, to modern circumstances. I shall endeavour to show how The Anathemata embodies a full cosmic vision, in the traditional epic fashion, while the author is also able to incorporate elements reflective of modern conditions into the form of his text.

Family Therapy without the Family (Parallel Family Therapy Technique with a Juvenile Delinquent and his Family)

Family Therapy without the Family (Parallel Family Therapy Technique with a Juvenile Delinquent and his Family)

Author(s): Andrea Fábián / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2010

Author’s experiences as a family therapist show that the success of the re-socialization of young delinquents is achieved only if their family supports them and cares of them even during the period of incarceration. However, this ideal situation is frequently endangered due to stigmatization, shame, and isolation. That is the reason of why therapist should help not only the delinquent, but also his/her family in terms of activating their social and emotional resources.

The Testimony and the Confess of Fear During the Communist Regime In Memorialistics (1948-1965)

MĂRTURIA ŞI MĂRTURISIREA FRICII ÎN SPAŢIUL CONCENTRAŢIONAR ROMÂNESC ÎN DISCURSUL MEMORIALISTIC (1948-1965)

Author(s): Dinu Gherman / Language(s): Romanian / Issue: XII/2010

Keywords: testimonies, fear, communism, political prisoner, memorialistics

Fear, one of the most crucial human feelings, was used by the communist regime to impose certain patterns for signifying reality and inculcating obedience and docility. Representations of fear are all-pervasive in the collective unconscious and can be identified at the level of discourse within the detention memoirs of former political prisoners. Whereas the depth of the confession varies from one individual to another, fear remains deeply ingrained in the collective memory as a lifetime companion

USING AN ONLINE INTERSCHOLASTIC NEWS NETWORKS AS A COLLABORATIVE CLASSROOM TEACHING TOOL

USING AN ONLINE INTERSCHOLASTIC NEWS NETWORKS AS A COLLABORATIVE CLASSROOM TEACHING TOOL

Author(s): Melanie Faizer / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2013

Keywords: web journalism; collaboration; web entrepreneurship; inter-institutional learning; web pedagogy.

The University of Tennessee’s journalism department established an online news network that hosts the startup websites of secondary schools. The network was intended to help journalism programs make the transition to the web and to connect student journalists via their campus-based news websites. The network has unlimited potential as a pedagogical tool, mirroring as it does the Web’s deliberate interconnectedness, its entrepreneurial potential and its ideals of transparency and hackability. Students can engage with the network on many levels, from simple aggregation and curation of content, to the exchange of ideas on student reporting or regional issues. Web journalism in the classroom too often falls victim to a silo approach that insulates students from real-world and workplace realities where flexibility and collaborative practices are the norm. This paper introduces the concepts behind the intercollegiate online network and its use as an innovative teaching platform. Ultimately, the online news network begins to address the need for journalism schools to graduate students who can produce and manage content – and people – collaboratively and across organizations.

An empirical approach on communication

Perspectivă empirică de abordare a comunicării

Author(s): Merima Carmen Petrovici / Language(s): / Issue: 5/2015

Keywords: science; method; didactic communication;

By nature, man is a communicative being, hungry for knowledge. His wish to answer the questions What is knowledge?; What is scientific knowledge?; How can scientific knowledge be made possible? resulted in the appearance of two branches of science or philosophy: gnoseology and epistemology. Both are thories of knowledge but epistemology has scientific knowledge as a specific trait and also as a field of activity. The elements differentiating between the two theories of knowledge are the methods, that for communication can be defined as a system of rules, principles of knowledge and transformation of objective reality. This paper aims at highlighting the importance of empirical methods in the study of communication and with it the importance of experience in and for the didactic communication.

HOW DO WE DRAFT A PROPER LETTER OF APPLICATION?

COMMENT BIEN RÉDIGER SA LETTRE DE MOTIVATION ?

Author(s): Adina Irina Forna / Language(s): French / Issue: 1/2016

Keywords: lettre de motivation ; offre d’emploi ; candidature spontanée ; lettre manuscrite /vs /tapée à l’ordinateur ; forme ; contenu.

La lettre de motivation/de candidature est un document aussi important que le C.V. Son rôle est d’introduire le C.V., d’annoncer la candidature et d’offrir au recruteur/à l’employeur quelques informations et arguments pour susciter son intérêt et entraîner la lecture du C.V., éventuellement décrocher l’entretien d’embauche. Deux aspects sont à retenir : « la correspondance entre les compétences du candidat et les exigences du poste ; la motivation du candidat, exprimée par la connaissance de l’entreprise et de son activité. » 2 Notre article propose aussi quelques règles générales pour construire une lettre de motivation (forme et contenu). De toute façon, la lettre de motivation ne doit pas répéter les informations déjà présentes dans le C.V., mais mettre en évidence certains atouts et appuyer par des exemples (des réalisations) les compétences et les aptitudes du candidat. Tout en respectant certaines consignes à propos de la rédaction de la lettre de motivation, il est important d’adapter le message à sa propre personnalité, sans omettre la clarté, la précision et la lisibilité.

THE OTHER’S POETRY: SUFI THOUGHT IN PAUL SUTHERLAND’S COLLECTIONS

THE OTHER’S POETRY: SUFI THOUGHT IN PAUL SUTHERLAND’S COLLECTIONS

Author(s): Monica Manolachi / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2015

Keywords: contemporary British poetry; Sufi philosophy; religious conversion; Islam

The influence of the Islamic culture on British literature has had its own tradition and representatives. By drawing on recent sociological, psychological and historical research about conversion to Islam in the West and on studies related to Sufi principles and aesthetics in literature, this paper explores and comments on some of the conditions which can nowadays lead to religious conversions, with a focus on the conversion from Christianity to Islam and on the poetic language of conversion. It argues that certain features of individual identity and an interest in therapeutic solutions to life’s problems can favour such once-in-a-lifetime decisions,as Paul Sutherland’s transcultural poetry exceptionally illustrates. David Westerlund (2004) writes that “Sufism has always been a multiplex phenomenon” (17), hence its universality and flexibility in its relationship with other cultures and religions. Born in Canada in 1947 in a family of British ancestry, Paul Sutherland arrived in the United Kingdom in 1973. The founder and editor of the international literary journal Dream Catcher from 1996 to 2012, he converted to Islam in 2004, when he became a follower of Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani and was given the name Abdul Wadud. He has published several poetry collections inspired by Sufi philosophy, such as Seven Earth Odes (2004), Spires and Minarets (2010), Journeying (2012), Poems on the Life of Prophet Muhammad (2014) or A Sufi Novice in Shaykh Effendi’s Realm (2014), fragments of which are briefly discussed below, in the light of a journey from Canadian Christianity to European type of Sufi Islam.

Musical traditions in the Palm Sunday: Palm Sunday Carols, harmonized by Gheorghe Cucu

Musical traditions in the Palm Sunday: Palm Sunday Carols, harmonized by Gheorghe Cucu

Author(s): Ruxandra Mirea / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2022

Keywords: Gheorghe Cucu; Palm Sunday; Palm Sunday Carols; Sacred music; Modal harmonies;

Music has always been and will always be the artistic and theoretical area where the material force is transcended towards spirituality. Considered to be of divine origin and reminiscent of the Davidic psalms and of many other ancestral songs, music is, through its sacred genres that sanctify its beginnings, and, later, through the secular genres, an area with authentic aestheic virtues. The most important moments of the church year are also accompanied by specific songs which harmonize the being with the divine spirit. The Palm Sunday carols are eloquent songs in remembrance of Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem. The music accompanies this time too, a defining moment of the Christian world, through varied and suggestive sounds. The carol, as a species of Romanian ethnomusicology, at this moment filled with sacredness, reveals a florilegium of songs, with real specificities of musical language. The Sunday Palm Carols, collected by Gheorghe Cucu, are a testimony of the musician's personality, close to his origins, to the Romanian village, to the customs and habits that, sometimes, remained unaltered in his being.

The Life of a Literary Network – A Quantitative Approach to Sburătorul Literary Cenacle

The Life of a Literary Network – A Quantitative Approach to Sburătorul Literary Cenacle

Author(s): Daiana Gârdan / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2022

Keywords: Sburătorul; Lovinescu; literary journals; sociology of groups; network studies;

Investigated mostly in a co-dependent relationship with its titular figure – E. Lovinescu (1881-1943), the Romanian literary circle Sburătorul has achieved a paradoxical position in the field of Romanian critical inquiry. On one hand, this particular group is an ever-present reference in research dedicated to the interwar Romanian literary modernist scene. On the other hand, only a few monographic works explore the actual dynamic of this group, and while they are well documented and multi-layered a lot of material remains yet to be explored. The Sburătorul Literary Journals (Sburătorul: Agende literare), kept by E. Lovinescu and subsequently edited and published posthumously by his daughter, Monica Lovinescu, are one of the most valuable yet underestimated bibliographical instruments in Romania. Owing much to this particular instrument, my paper aims to investigate the human resource of Sburătorul literary circle. The methodology of my paper stands at the intersection between network studies, distant reading, and sociology and within these theoretical frameworks I intend to explore the relationships and dynamics between the most active members of the group, in order to “measure” the symbolic capital of the group.

MEANINGS OF FOOD IN THE FILM “THE HUNDRED-FOOT JOURNEY”

MEANINGS OF FOOD IN THE FILM “THE HUNDRED-FOOT JOURNEY”

Author(s): Monica Alina Toma / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2022

Keywords: food; culture; identity; differences; intimacy; bonding;

The article seeks to explore the meanings associated with food in the film “The Hundred-Foot Journey” (2014), directed by Lasse Hallström. This paper aims to demonstrate that food represents not only a platform for asserting personal, social, national and cultural differences, but also a means of establishing bonds between people in spite of these differences. The hundred feet in the title represent not only the physical distance between two restaurants, but also the gap between the Indian and the French culture that the protagonist Hassan Kadam needs to cross in order to find his rightful place in the world.

A Chronicler Hath a Facebook Page: Enregistering “Old Romanian” Online

A Chronicler Hath a Facebook Page: Enregistering “Old Romanian” Online

Author(s): Monica Huţanu,Adina Chirilă / Language(s): English / Issue: 60/2022

Keywords: enregisterment; indexicality; new media; archaicity; “old Romanian”;

Drawing on Agha’s (2003, 2005) theory of enregisterment, our research is concerned with the linguistic practices through which “old Romanian” as an imagined variety is perceived and represented online by educated non-linguists contributing to the Letopiseț (“chronicle”) Facebook page. The administrator and the community gathered around this page write humorously about current political or social events using, more or less competently, an approximation of 17th-century Romanian – an endeavour similar to the one found on Geoffrey Chaucer hath a blog (Bryant 2010) and other pages. The purpose of our paper is to analyse how “old Romanian” is enregistered as such and what are the salient linguistic and cultural features indexically linked to the idea of “archaicity”. We contend that, on the Letopiseț Facebook page, “old Romanian” is enregistered in three main ways: by using a set of archaic graphic, morphosyntactic and lexical features (either authentic or invented by the administrator); by using dialectal features, thought of as old; and by using quotes and pseudo-quotes (Minugh 1999) from old Romanian texts. In the end, we discuss a few possible reasons for using “old Romanian” online.

Wilhelm Georg Berger: The Fully Chromatic Chorale and the Organ Symphonies

Wilhelm Georg Berger: The Fully Chromatic Chorale and the Organ Symphonies

Author(s): Cecilia Benedicta Pavel / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2018

Keywords: moderate modern; systematization; the theory of proportional modes;

This study is focused mainly on Wilhelm Georg Berger’s double vocation as theorist and composer who applies his own theories (like Paul Hindemith, Olivier Messiaen, Béla Bartók or Arnold Schoenberg), in the context of the '60s, when this practice was widespread among the composers of the new “national school” (Anatol Vieru). Drawing mainly on Berger's book entitled Modal Dimensions, a collection of studies published previously in the Muzica [Music] journal, the first part of this research study dwells on the principle whereby Berger attains the supremacy of the fully chromatic chorale, starting from the modal scales. The second part of the study focuses on Berger's work, more precisely on the way he integrates the organ into his symphonies: either as a solo instrument (Symphony No. 10 for organ and orchestra and Symphony No. 18 for string orchestra and organ), or as an accompanying one (Symphony No. 5 “Solemn Music” and Symphony No. 9 “Fantasia”). Finally, the thematic and formal analysis of the two symphonies (Nos. 10 and 18), along with the sources consulted, confirm the label of “moderate modern” attributed to Berger, as well as to other composers whose aesthetic views resonated with Enescu's (Pascal Bentoiu, Nicolae Beloiu, Dumitru Capoianu, Theodor Grigoriu).

TRANSLATING PROPER NOUNS: ROALD DAHL’S THE BFG IN ROMANIAN

TRANSLATING PROPER NOUNS: ROALD DAHL’S THE BFG IN ROMANIAN

Author(s): Mădălina Șraier (Ștefănescu) / Language(s): English / Issue: 21/2020

Keywords: children’s literature; character; name; translation; roald dahl;

This article covers the translation of proper nouns, more specifically character names, in children’s texts and the implications of such an undertaking. Much like the title of a text contributes to the reader’s first impression of what he/she is going to read, names represent the first contact with the characters. The manner in which a reader perceives a character and the key in which he/she interprets the character’s actions in the economy of the entire text largely depends upon the translation choices made in respect to the character’s name. Left as such, translated or completely replaced, names are an essential component in the texture of a text, with a major impact on the overall reading experience. This paper looks at the names of the characters in the children’s novel The BFG and in its three translations into Romanian. The Romanian translators’ choices are analysed in the second half of this article in an attempt to highlight the main strategies employed and their effect in the economy of the text.

Multimodality: D(I)aspora, Identity construction and the speaking of Migrant Subjects in the New Media

Multimodality: D(I)aspora, Identity construction and the speaking of Migrant Subjects in the New Media

Author(s): Sonika Kumari / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2023

Keywords: Multimodal Analysis; Semiotic Analysis; New Media; South Asia; Diaspora;

The paper has two main goals. First, I want to show how important it is to look at discourse through a multimodal lens. Second, this paper experiments with MDA (multimodal discourse analysis) in examining the three films from south Asian countries. The hegemonic images of “home,” “family,” and “childhood” serve as nodes in building up discursive limits, and they seem to be used to idealise and romanticise the lives of South Asian migrants in both official and personal writings. My research is based on multimodality analysis as theoretical and methodological approaches. In addition, I will discuss the current issue of multimodal studies and the potential of mixed-method approaches that include multimodal analysis. I shall also address the focuses on the dialectical link between the diasporic group and their space of existence to demonstrate, via a multimodal analysis, how space is portrayed verbally and nonverbally in the films. Specifically, the concept of home as a symbol of rootedness and reintegration is examined in connection to several factors, including gender, age, and socio-cultural identity. There are several angles from which to investigate the modality of literature. In this paper, I’ll talk about how the material objects we interact with shape our comprehension of stories and the experiences communicated in novels and adapted films, as well as how the integration of the basic media types of speech, text, and images varies according to the conventions of different qualified media types. Lastly, this article summarises studies that aim to define what makes digital multimodal texts effective through migration and new media.
