Les articles de ce recueil, réunis par des membres du Laboratoire Langues, Littératures et Civilisations de l'Arc Atlantique de l'Université de Pau et des Pays de l'Adour, explorent les notions de jeu, joie et jouissance dans le champ des études anglophones.

L'auteur nous livre ici un roman en langue kabyle où l'amour sert de toile de fond à une oeuvre complexe mêlant l'histoire, la politique et la littérature. Le récit, achevé il y a quelques années, est ancré dans la réalité quotidienne, avec ses combats contre l'injustice, l'arbitraire, le mépris et les abus de toutes sortes frappant les berbères, prémonitoires de ce qui se passe aujourd'hui en Kabylie.
In this book it is a matter of accounting for the dynamics of Wolof language, of its borrowings, of its diffusion and mostly the etymologies that are at times amazing and give this book a more poetic than scientific character.

The book analyzes the novel Ordained by the Oracle through socio-cultural, symbolic and anthropological frameworks. It examines funeral rituals, the duality between the visible and invisible worlds, and the role of the oracle, spirits and ancestors in society. The study sheds light on the notions of space, time, myth and reality in the Akan society. It demonstrates that literature crosses disciplinary boundaries and can be seen as a form of anthropology. The analysis will be of interest to students and researchers in African studies, literature, religion, culture, sociology, and anthropology.
In an era where the ubiquity of the English language intersects seamlessly with global entertainment, today's youth naturally absorb the language while engaging in leisure activities. Delving beyond conventional pedagogical boundaries, this book illuminates how extramural activities, from cinematic experiences to digital gaming, can be exploited as resources for learning English. Employing a rigorous empirical framework, the present research project uncovers evidence that learners who engage in extramural English activities demonstrate higher English learning motivation, reduced English speaking anxiety, and enhanced willingness to communicate in English. Written for language professionals and researchers, this synthesis of empirical results aims to enrich the discourse on English as a Foreign Language learning and teaching. By unravelling the relationship between leisure, motivation, and individual learner differences in general, this book aims to provide readers with important research findings relevant in current foreign language education.

La quête n'est qu'une illusion. Le monde lui-même n'est peut-être qu'une vaste illusion. Une sorte de séjour des morts où se côtoient des ombres et des zombies. En tout cas, enfermés dans d'insurmontables contradictions, candidats certains à l'aliénation, les mutilés des D.O.M. traversent leur destin. Leurs pays seraient-ils des isles ou des asiles.
Reste-on soi même en changeant de langue ? Question souvent posée, que l'on doit, dans le cas des écrivains, étendre non seulement au style, mais également à la problématique du bilinguisme d'écriture, qui prend parfois une ampleur prépondérante dans l'oeuvre d'un auteur, comme pour Beckett de l'anglais au français ou Nabokov du russe à l'anglais. L'auto-traduction joue alors un rôle crucial qui amène à s'interroger sur l'identité du texte auto-traduit : où se trouve l'original au regard des versions existantes ?

The present publication focuses on the examination of literary diversity. One the one hand it deals with the litarature of various endangered languages (especially that of the Sami), and develops first considerations in constructing a comparative paradigm for mapping the vulnerability of literary processes. On the other, this books pays attention to thematic, formal and stylistic aspects of contemporary translingual literary productions. Special attention is here given to the latest developments in the Finnish literary field. The foci of endangerment and translingualism require addressing several other related literary phenomena such as literary ecology, écriture multiculturelle, code-switching or intercultural dialogism in present day world literature.
The present book is a collection of eleven critical essays on American literature and civilization. The authors, mostly all members of the American and Caribbean Studies Laboratory of Cheikh Anta Diop University, have analyzed a wide range of features of American literature and civilization from the birth of the nation to modern and postmodern times. However, the editor would like to draw the readers' attention that the authors are entirely responsible for the contents of their articles.
The Verb in Akoose: descriptive and theoretical perspectives discusses an aspect of grammar, namely the verb, in a narrow-Bantu language spoken in Cameroon. The book combines descriptive and theoretical perspectives, but it intends primarily to serve a theoretical purpose. The analysis illustrates how morphology interacts with syntax to trigger the movement of syntactic units (object shift and verb raising) in Akoose within the ambits of the Minimalist Program.
The focus of this book is twofold: first, Samuel Beckett's Endgame, its genesis and post-publication development, and second, the reception of his dramas in Hungary. There are, of course, overlaps between the two topics, for example, Gyrgy Kurtág's Fin de partie opera, István Paál's first stage direction of Endgame in Hungary, or Gábor Zsámbéki's TV-recording of the play, which preceded the stage premiere. However, the real bonding agent of the book is the dramaturgy and theatricality of Beckett's work, whether it be unpublished manuscript fragment, full length play or Beckett-staging in scope. This book intends to present Beckett-productions that were the first in one way or another, either the most productive Hungarian-language Beckett-director's oeuvre, a Hungarian premiere, the first Godot-staging after 1989, the first Beckett shows in a theatre's entire programme since its foundation, or the very first Fin de partie opera. All of these involved a certain amount of risk taking, just as one would expect from opening gambits in a game of chess. This is the first time that a selection of Hungarian Endgames and other Beckett-stagings has entered the international platform of Beckett scholarship, to engage in a broader dialogue with artists, scholars, and students around the globe. ANITA RÁKÓCZY is dramaturge, theatre critic, and Lecturer at Károli Gáspár University of The Reformed Church in Hungary. She has conducted research on Samuel Beckett's Fin de partie at CUNY Graduate Centre New York as a Fulbright Scholar, and also in the University of Reading's Samuel Beckett Collection. She has worked for the Hungarian Theatre Museum and Institute and the International Theatre Institute (ITI) Hungarian Centre. She has published in Samuel Beckett Today / Aujourd'hui and the Journal of Beckett Studies. With Mariko Hori Tanaka and Nicholas Johnson, she co-edited Influencing Beckett / Beckett Influencing (Collection Károli L'Harmattan, 2020).
