Most Indigenous authors in North America publish in English, but that does not prevent some of them from appropriating the language inherited from colonialism and imposing on it the influence of an Indigenous language. The writing of several such authors also reflects the influence of oral literature. We can see these two specificities in novels like Ravensong (1993) by the Stó:lō-Salish writer Lee Maracle. Maracle herself insists on the importance of orality in her culture and in her own relationship to stories. In addition, she plays with English grammar by, among other things, feminizing certain English terms. To what degree has the translation by Joanie Demers for the Quebec publishing house Mémoire d'encrier, succeeded in doing justice to these characteristics of Maracle's writing?

AbstractWithin the context of illicit drug control, harm reduction is often regarded as the third avenue beside the traditional responses that represented the prohibitionist model and the therapeutic model oriented towards abstinence. Through a comparative analysis of the three approaches, the authors challenge the notion that harm reduction represents a rupture regarding the traditional perspectives on drug use. On the contrary, an examination of how harm reduction strategies are implemented in the field of drug regulation illustrates instead a widening of the apparatus of control. Following a presentation of the cohabitation between these three approaches, the authors then outline a sociological framework for understanding the political appeal of harm reduction strategies. Several reasons for the success of these strategies are then proposed.

AbstractThis article presents a discussion of interactivity from three very different viewpoints. In the first section, the author re-examines the definition of interactivity as it is related to simulation and considering human characteristics. A second section presents educational issues related to interactivity and attempts to show both why and how to promote a central objective which facilitates "becoming an author". The third section describes interactive narrative which reveals that through questions about narrative sequences, aspects of temporality, presence of the reader or the program in the relationship between author-reader, that "fictional theories" about life are always present in the background.

With the crisis of time, characterized by the crumbling of the social rhythms and the feeling of acceleration, thinking the temporalities through has become a new concern for the territorial public policies. However, a gap remains in the issues concerning the hypertension of the territorial rhythms and the existing methods to represent them. From the contribution of Time-geography to the “chronotope” of the istituto politecnico di Milano, studies trying to understand territorial time reveal how hard it is to portray so intangible a phenomenon. Our purpose is to present two innovative methods used in our research to facilitate chronoaménagement and chrono-planning. The first is based on the mapping of time attractors in the revision of the PLU (Plan Local d'Urbanisme) of the city of Niort. The second is based on the development of a serial snapping method destined to capture the subtle evolutions of the customs of a place in order to feed the chrono settlement.
