The Cercle Récamier, founded in Montreal in 1930 by Gabrielle Valois- Hébert, brings together women with a passion for, among others, literature, history, music and travel. The notebooks of minutes they leave are the only tracks that provide access to this form of sociability, to books and authors that are the subject of their studies and to the writing practices and dissemination of knowledge of these women. The first six notebooks written by the Cercle Récamier are a source of unique feminine writing practice, collective, yet private, but little studied until now.

The main objective of this research is to examine the effects of establishing a company in a science park on its innovation process. This exploratory research is based on a qualitative study conducted with 12 respondents established in science parks in the province of Quebec. The results of this research have enabled to not only advance knowledge on the effects of science parks for the development of innovation, but also on the effects of each of the phases of the simplified innovation process: conception phase, implementation phase, and marketing phase. From a managerial point of view, business managers can better understand these effects and thus take them into account in their decisions when developing products or technologies.
Keywords: Science park, Parc scientifique, innovation process, processus d’innovation, conception, conception, implementation, développement, marketing, commercialisation

Paul Lejeune is the author of the majority of the Jesuit relations of New France in the 1630s. With the institutionalization of their publication during this decade, these annual missives circulate outside the Society of Jesus. The representations of the Innu people and of their spiritual otherness then evolve from a demoniac description to superstitions, replaceable by Christian doctrine. To that end, the missionary relies mainly on the ancient meaning of the notion of genius before subsequently nuancing this historical association and the use of Christian terms. In so doing, Paul Lejeune allows, maybe despite himself, the permanence of a spiritual and metaphysical otherness, unthinkable within the European imaginary.

This article proposes that traditions of theatrical practice provide the context for innovation and the development of new forms of theatre culture. It compares two traditions of cultural practice, the Wielka Reforma, or Great Reform that comprises the 20th century theatres of Europe and the art of the director, and the traditional Chinese martial arts. It offers concrete examples of innovative theatrical practices that are derived from traditional principles.

This article proposes to revisit the rich synonymy of “spleen” (sadness, regret, nostalgia, melancholy, boredom, unhappiness, fatigue, lassitude, languor, anguish, neurosis, pessimism, despair, or depression), in order to see how that word can be attached to a 21st century novel and to a specific age group, the elderly. Le dernier des Snoreaux was published in 2019 by Abla Farhoud, a Canadian writer of Lebanese origin. As the title suggests, the novel concerns a sibling, whose only living brother, Ibrahim Abou-Snobara, known as Snoreau, is dying in hospital. After a first crisis suffered at the age of eighteen as a consequence of an incomplete mourning for his brother who died in an accident, Ibrahim’s life will be made up of stays in hospitals or in prison, until today, when he is old and very ill. Talking about the human condition will be done by borrowing the aesthetics of the great splenic poets of the French 19th century in order to demonstrate how the finitude of the human condition can be sublimated through a literary work.

Background: Interviews are considered an important part of the medical school admissions process but have been critiqued based on bias and reliability concerns since the 1950s. To determine the impact of the interview, this systematic review investigated the characteristics and outcomes of medical students admitted with and without interviews.Methods: We searched four literature databases from inception through August 2022; all studies comparing medical students admitted with and without interviews were included. We excluded studies from outside the medical school setting and non-research reports. We reviewed interview type, study design, quality, and outcomes.Results: Eight studies from five institutions across five countries were included. Six reported no demographic differences between students admitted with and without interviews; one found that more men were admitted without than with semi-structured interviews, and both cohorts had similar academic and clinical performance. Structured interviews admitted students who scored higher on clinical exams and social competence and lower on academic exams. Cohorts admitted with and without structured interviews had similar mental health issues by their final year of medical school.Discussion: This review suggests that students admitted with and without unstructured and semi-structured interviews were similar demographically, academically, and clinically. Moreover, structured interviews selected more socially competent students who performed better clinically but worse academically. Further research is needed to determine the impact of the selection interview in medical school admissions.

SummaryThis paper reports on an attempt at open modeling in discourse analysis carried out simultaneously on narration and enunciation. The analysis of Narrative Strategies in Stories and Speech (SNR) was developed on the basis of interdisciplinary borrowings and the examination of discourse practices, whose objective was to identity transformation strategies. The operations investigated are defined in terms of the respective position of enun-ciators and of their socio-institutional situation in their fields. The paper sets out to expose the methodological progression of adjusting concepts and analytical tools as they confront heterogeneous materials and fields - therapeutic interviews, position documents in social policiy.
