Napoléon took theatre in great consideration and used to be extremely vigilant with respect to possible political implications in the tragic genre. Even if the creation of new tragedies was encouraged by the government, there were only a small amount of creation at the Comédie Française during the Napoleonian Age and their success was often due to the quality of its interpreters. During this period, mélodrame proves to be the most creative and innovative genre, and it is also the most appreciated by the public. This paper will focus on the historical character of Tippo-Saëb as he was represented in Étienne de Jouy's tragedy of the same name. To better underline the contradictions and uncertainties of the tragic genre, the political and aesthetic implications of the play, Jouy's text will be analyzed in comparison with the mélodrame Tipoo-Saib ou la Prise de Séringapatam by Dubois and Gobert of the same period.

Aware of the influence that theatre exerts on the public and that it contributes powerfully to forming the coeval public opinion, since his Coup d'État (November 1799) Napoleon took a series of measures that can be summarized in three words: encouraging (first of all, he wanted to help the theatres of the best French tradition to regain their importance as soon as possible), favoring (so that they could act most effectively to the detriment of secondary theatres), controlling (in order for great theatres to act in the service of the Emperor, whose action and name they had to glorify, Napoleon exercised more and more severe control over them). In this paper, after retracing the historical of the institutional interventions that contributes to shape the coeval dramatic landscape, we will try to consider if these measures were really effective and how they determined the evolution of theatrical art. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Consulate and the Empire's cultural policy for the theatres was torn between a republican heritage of revolutionary festivals and the progressive restoration of Ancien Régime practices, as all the while Napoleon's personal grip on power tightened. The commemorations of the storming of the Bastille and of the proclamation of the Republic were eventually put aside and replaced at the end of the Consulate by Napoleon's birthday celebrations (August 15) and the anniversary of his coronation (December 2). During the French Empire, the number of festivals increased with the major victories, campaigns, and other events for the dynasty, such as the Austrian wedding and the birth of Napoleon's heir. This paper examines the organization of these festivities in Paris for the forty free performances (gratis) during the years 1800-1813 and reconstructs the theatrical programme of the eight official playhouses authorized by the 1806 and 1807 decrees. Each institution mainly chose plays from the major plays of its repertoire, but opportune flattery was still a possibility: we see the theatres mixing the political stakes of patriotic propaganda, self-promotion, and branding. When looking at these programmes, three main trends appear: propaganda plays (pièces de circonstance), national and historical dramas, and plays (both new and old) which were supposed to illustrate the French cultural patrimony and glory. As a part of the political ritual, the "gratis" performances shed light on Napoleon's plans for the concepts of power, the people and contemporary culture. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

L'Enchanteur by Charlotte-Rose Caumont de La Force (1654-1724) stands out against other French fairy tales written at the end of the 17th century both because of its treatment of eroticism, and because of its inspiration having been identified as "a gothic book Perceval" by the author herself. The aim of this paper is to provide a comparative analysis of L'Enchanteur and its medieval source in the context of women's writing in 17th-century France. By adapting the tale of Carados that appears in the first continuation to Chrétien de Troyes's Perceval, La Force makes use of the attractive archaic language and setting, while at the same providing a streamlined, woman-centred retelling, in which Carados's mother and lover both seek (and find) love and pleasure.

Résumé: En France, les assurés sociaux de la CPAM ont droit à un examen périodique de santé (EPS) réalisé au centre d'examen de santé. Il est orienté vers la prévention, quelles que soient les maladies préexistantes de l'assuré, la lutte contre la précarité et les inégalités d'accès aux soins. Les médecins généralistes (MG) estiment intervenir fréquemment en matière de prévention. Aux termes d'une enquête quantitative transversale descriptive observationnelle par questionnaire papier anonyme, réalisée de février à mai 2018, auprès de 240 MG libéraux de la Loire, les MG semblent favorables à un EPS adapté à une population qui leur semble devoir être ciblée différemment. Une meilleure collaboration entre MG et centres d'examens de santé préalablement et au décours de l'EPS pourrait être envisagée. In France, social security contributors are entitled to a periodic health examination (PHE) carried out at the health examination center (HEC). The PHE is oriented towards prevention whatever pre-existing illnesses, the fight against precariousness and inequalities in access to care. General practitioners (GPs) consider that they frequently intervene in the field of prevention. According to a quantitative cross-sectional descriptive observational survey by anonymous paper questionnaire, conducted from February to May 2018, among 240 liberal GPs in the Loire district, GPs seem to favour a PHE adapted to a population that they feel should be targeted differently. It would be interesting to better understand this point of view. Better collaboration between MG and HEC before and during the PHE could be envisaged. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The facts reported in this paper are the results of a study processed in December 1905 about the military policy of the German Empire and the Third Republic of France. The paper aims to analyze the complex events of international politics a few years before the outbreak of the First World War (1914). The assumptions of conflict and strategies concerning the German "enemy" and the contemporary French revanchism about a possible conflict between the French Third Republic and the German Empire.

This paper summarizes the past, present, and future of Eurodisney in France from cultural awareness and cultural business ethics viewpoints, suggesting that although the French have not bought into the American dream that is Disney, they are so heavily involved in Eurodisney from a financial angle that they can do naught but continue to provide financial support. Eurodisney is a European business in trouble; it had tremendous national and local backing and continues to receive local financial support as a matter of cultural obligation to local business and banks. Even though it was 5 billion francs in debt, Eurodisney received renewed financial support from European, and especially French, businesses and banks. It is suggested that Eurodisney brings a conflict between the French and European and the American cultures to the forefront. This is a conflict between the old and the new in an age where the service industries are growing at an unprecedented rate. Entertainment is now a product that must be marketed and sold on a world-wide basis, American style, despite France's desire to control it in a more European business style.

This paper presents the preliminary results of a qualitative survey on the implementation of quotas policies, in the context of higher education and research in France, in the field of computer science specifically. Beyond the theoretical controversy over quotas, it is a question of diving into the heart of an environment that we can describe as specific (and of which we will draw some of the specificities), to collect the experience, the words of women, who are computer scientists in the academic environment, in relation to quotas. The main idea is to question the quotas implementation in order to study in which sense these quotas can indeed lead to more professional equality, but also to study the context in which they can slow down this professional equality.

Through three examples coming from long-term studies of population dynamics in France, intra and inter-urban, this paper shows that the introduction of some "a-historical" ontologies was required to implement quantitative analyses of spatial evolutions. However, we demonstrate that these ontologies are far from being neutral, and that they do not dissolve the specificity of the sources we used, but on the contrary, they constitute situated knowledge. Beyond these criticisms, the authors tend to argue that the process of construction and dialogue established around ontology is very beneficial to research, that it is a foundation for an interdisciplinary, shared and sustainable Science.

This paper focused on the terms own to the domaine of the Catholic Church in French and in Czech. These terms are called "endemic". After a review of the theoretic starting points, the paper describes the research in dictionnaries, specialized texts and the computer parallel corpus InterCorp, bringing a list of 131 French "endemic" terms and of their Czech equivalents. The Czech equivalents are not allways "endemic". Le présent article traite la question des termes propres au domaine de l'Église catholique en français et en tchèque. Ces termes sont appelés ≪ endémiques ≫. Après la présentation des points de départ théoriques, l'article décrit la recherche des termes ≪ endémiques ≫ à partir les dictionnaires, les textes de spécialité et le corpus parallèle informatisé InterCorp, en présentant la liste de 131 termes ≪ endémiques ≫ français et de leur équivalents tchèques. Les équivalents tchèques ne sont pas toujours ≪ endémiques ≫ à leur tour. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Online campaign discourse during the 2012 French presidential elections revolved around criticising, ridiculising and attacking the opponent. Concrete policies, part of the candidiates' platforms were, most of the times, neglected in favour of rude incivility. Opposition candidate of the Socialist Party François Hollande deployed significantly more instances of verbal hostility during the campaign than the other four main candidates altogether. Centrist François Bayrou remained level-headed and moderated throughout the campaign. Critique, ridiculisation and discursive blocking of the opponent were analysed with the aid of Tams Analyzer, a discourse-analytical tool that helped with inventorying and coding all of the texts the five main candidates (François Hollande, Nicolas Sarkozy, Marine Le Pen, François Bayrou, Jean-Luc Mélenchon) posted on their personal or official sites between April 9th and May 4th. The codes chosen during the analysis (some of which you will see exemplified in this paper) were part of Derek Bousfield's list for strategies of impoliteness (2008) and were classified with the aid of Benoit's Functional Theory of Political Campaign Discourse (1999). This paper will give a short glimpse of how the main candidates' discourse was constructed online. A further one will compare the data hereby presented to what was witnessed during the final televised debate between Hollande and Sarkozy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper focuses on the facets of fashion as they appear in Perec's critical work "Douze regards obliques" and novel Les Choses. Starting with the concept of fashion, the paper shows the link between fashion and advertising, describes the initiators and the followers, identifies the trends and the musts of the '50s in France, and emphasizes the easy slide of the fashion from pleasure to violence. Finally, it points out that fashion is an element of civilisation which can be analyzed synchronically. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose of this paper is to examine the legitimacy of language policy and language planning instituted in France. Embarking on four directions of inquiry, the belonging of language to the social, the position of French in the global linguistic system, the place France occupies in the world-system and the gravitation around the centre of social groups constituting the world-system, and their synchronisation with the centre, the paper tries to shift the debates concerning the notable draw back of French from the international scene from issues concerning the language itself to a more socially covered ground. The basic assumption that the position of French, although a major language, is a consequence of the so-called decline of French society allows us to search for possible answers in the dynamics of social groups since language is both a factor of identity and a mirror of power relations between groups.

Ecological Solidarity: a new concept for integrated management of National Parks and territories. Our paper analyses the conceptual basis of the concept of ecological solidarity, a core feature of the 2006 law reforming National Park policy in France. Based on lessons learnt from the original 1960 policy, we show the multidimensional nature of ecological solidarity and how it is based on the recognition of the natural spatial interdependence among natural organisms and their physical environment. This sets the scene for a new vision of nature conservation. Ecological solidarity offers a pragmatic compromise between ecocentric and anthropocentric ethics. We designed a typology of ecological solidarities that integrates the diverse functional aspects of the organization and dynamics of biodiversity at different spatial and temporal scales. This typology departs from the previous model of central and buffer zones and sets protected areas within their wider social and ecological contexts. We outline how this gives sense to the elaboration of ecological networks and to the integrated management of cultural landscapes. Its efficient integration into land plarming and conservation management strategies will require, however, the collective exploration by local communities and stakeholders of the diverse facets of ecological solidarity.

This article analyses how the "digitizing" of the press transforms the writing of news in France, through the case of a recent trial, the "Carlton affair" in February 2015. The example chosen is that of Le Monde, which dedicates a blog to legal affairs that is overseen by an experienced journalist who also covers the same questions for the print version of the paper. How does the author take advantage of this double space of publication? Which kind of writing is the freer and the more literary or sophisticated? It appears that web newswriting does not give much importance to the dialog with the reader, but is rather an opportunity to try out ways of telling the story before giving it to the print version. In court journalism the print press still commands the greater prestige and gets more editorial support, whereas blogs or other digital content are used to compensate for the lack of space in the daily press.
