De la collection / Anne Josef. // Communication & Langages No 201/2019-September
2019.
p.111-132.

Cet article a l’ambition de proposer une analyse sémiotique de la pratique de la collection. En distinguant d’abord la pratique de la collection d’une simple pratique accumulative en déterminant que le geste de collection opère par réduction de l’ensemble des objets à acquérir alors que le geste d’accumulation opère par extension de l’ensemble des objets acquis, l’analyse conduite met au jour son mode opératoire. L’étude de la nature du collectionnable permet de conclure que tout ce qui est culturalisé, y compris l’être humain, peut faire l’objet d’une collection. L’autrice étudie ensuite les opérations d’acquisition qui sont de deux types : les transactions opèrent par compensation alors que les opérations de saisie n’engagent aucune compensation. Une analyse de la trophy room conclut cet article.

The impact of language on gesture in descriptions of voluntary motion in Czech and French adults and children / Katerina Fibigerova, Michèle Guidetti. // Language, Interaction and Acquisition. Volume 9, Issue 1, Jan 2018.

p. 101 - p.136

The present study compares adults, five- and ten-year-old speakers of Czech (a satellite-framed language) and French (a verb-framed language) during the task of describing short animated videos displaying various voluntary motion events. In this research domain, Czech is a hitherto unexplored language whose specifics make it interestingly different from other typologically similar languages. Our focus is on the semantic level of the multimodal expression of motion. We found that in spite of substantial differences in their typical verbal patterns due to the particularities of their respective languages, French speakers and Czech speakers tend to produce the same gestural patterns. Although this phenomenon was observed in all age groups, a cross-language positive effect of age on semantic density of speech as well as gesture was also found. These results are discussed in light of models of multimodal development in language acquisition.
