L’Angleterre et le Continent―Xe et début XIe siècles by Marthe Mensah

“…The major development of the 10th century was the monastic reform which was influenced by and indebted to contacts with the continent which are reflected in the Regularis Concordia, the manual of monastic usage to which every Anglo-Saxon monk was required to conform.This monastic reform was supported by the King and the alliance between King and Church helped further the development of artistic life in monastic scriptoria, in particular the creation of magnificent illuminated manuscripts, such as the Benedictional of Saint Aethelwold or the Harley Psalter inspired by continental models.Religious literature in the vernacular developed at the same time among which the best examples are the writings of Ælfric and Wulfstan who sometimes drew their inspiration from the Continent.…”

Pukka English and the Language of the Other in E. M. Forster’s A Passage to India by Catherine Lanone

Architecture vernaculaire de terre et évacuation des eaux by Blandine Besnard

“…Gradually abandoned since the 1970s, the vernacular heritage of the interior region of Oman is experiencing its last fires and there is an urgent need to collect both ethnological and architectural data before they definitely fall into the domain of History and Archaeology.With this in mind, a survey aiming to identify water drainage installations in three traditional mud-brick neighbourhoods in the interior of Oman (Birkat al‑Mawz, Izkī and al‑Ḥamrā') was carried out in March 2020.This survey highlighted the techniques and facilities related to water drainage in traditional Omani neighbourhoods that had never been the subject of any particular attention, but also opened up ethnoarchaeological perspectives, a discipline that postulates that ethnography can enrich the interpretation of archaeological data, or even the absence of the latter.Out of 359 identified installations, gargoyles represent 99% of the sample. …”

Étudiants, sitters, nouchi et bakoroman by Muriel Champy

“…Divided into recurring themes like political mobilisation, waiting and mobility, it shows that, far from only being a question of age, youth presents itself as an implicitly male category, which is designated as such only when it acquires a certain sociopolitical visibility and oppositional firepower.Finally, based on the author’s research among young people living on the streets in Burkina Faso (bakoroman), this article concludes by observing the “young” category’s recent intrusion into Burkina Faso’s political scene, to the point that a re-transcription of vernacular language seems to be asserting itself in the “zenna” written form.…”
