Post-War Culture And Reconciliation: From Optimism To Resilience, Michel Abou Khalil Aug 2022

Post-War Culture And Reconciliation: From Optimism To Resilience, Michel Abou Khalil

BAU Journal - Society, Culture and Human Behavior

Culture and Post-War Reconciliation: from Optimism to Resilience. At the end of the civil war, Lebanon tried to rebuild itself but fairly quickly wars, assassinations, repeated political crises and an influx of refugees weakened it.

L’Art Post-Catastrophe : Un Témoin Activiste, Michel Abou Khalil

BAU Journal - Society, Culture and Human Behavior

Le Liban, un pays riche artistiquement et intellectuellement, est la scène par excellence d’un enchainement de catastrophes depuis sa naissance jusqu’à nos jours. L’explosion du port de Beyrouth le 4 Août 2020 en constitue l’ultime épisode et peut-être le plus dramatique de tous. Un phénomène inédit s’est révélé suite à cette tragédie sans précédent : la scène culturelle s’est immédiatement mobilisée sans passer par une étape mnésique post catastrophe comme c’est en général le cas après un désastre. Que s’est-il passé ? Pourquoi une telle urgence ? Comment les artistes ont-ils utilisé leur créativité pour exprimer l’indicible, le penser, en …

Interpreting, Stephanie Jo Kent Aug 2014

Interpreting, Stephanie Jo Kent

Doctoral Dissertations

What do community interpreting for the Deaf in western societies, conference interpreting for the European Parliament, and language brokering in international management have in common? Academic research and professional training have historically emphasized the linguistic and cognitive challenges of interpreting, neglecting or ignoring the social aspects that structure communication. All forms of interpreting are inherently social; they involve relationships among at least three people and two languages. The contexts explored here, American Sign Language/English interpreting and spoken language interpreting within the European Parliament, show that simultaneous interpreting involves attitudes, norms and values about intercultural communication that overemphasize information and discount …
