AbstractThis article discusses the development of a training program for secondary level teachers specializing in drama. This program was implemented in England and evolved over a period of eighteen years. The author reflects on this evolution and notes that, as well as responding to the expectations of government, the promotors and participants of the program have succeeded in developing reflection on their practices: for example, the program evolved from one of teacher training to one of teacher coaching. This article also describes the relation between theory and practice which characterizes the program as well as the choice of theories which allow flexibility. A detailled representation of the program demonstrates the content and teaching methods proposed

ABSTRACTAristotelian ideas on analogy that may be found in Brentano's early thesis help to elucidate his theory of truth, especially what Brentano wrote on truth at the end of his life. It seems as though Brentano did not distinguish between the notion of truth and the notion of evidence ; but, in fact, he has two notions of truth. The original sense of truth in a true judgment means evidence ; in a derived or analogical sense, a blind judgment, which corresponds to an evident judgment in all other aspects, is also called true. Such a judgment is true in so far as it may be judged with evidence.

In this article, we tried to decrypt the nature, the structure and the ways of actions of an active minority within developped countries. Individuals who belong to the transhumanist movement reflect to some extent the conflictual situation which is the own case of our Mankind in this beginning of 3rd millenary which has to cope with the growing importance of Sciences, Techniques and Technology in our daily lives. Discussing about the future of Mankind, Transhumanists interrogate burning core questions which put forward a new ideal posthuman identity where technique, helping human beings, restores their social and cosmological legitimacy.

SummaryTheories of communication usually focuse on the construction of intersubjective agreements and on the stabilisation of expectations and codes. This paper takes the opposite point of view : our communication is primarily based on three virtual liberties of the actor : the transgression of conventions and expectations, the possibility of an hide and show game around our mental states, the metamorphosis of represented reality. This three liberties define a space of virtual reversibility which is a powerful endogenous source of erosion and creation of codes and social forms. History is not a succession of intersubjective agreements ; it looks like a regulation of a desertion, a transgression or a rejection of old conventions, expectations or regularities.
