In her last novel, Les Sorcières de la République, Chloé Delaume imagines a society run by women who overthrew the French government – judged too patriarchal and oppressive – after having been given magical powers by the Olympic goddesses. If the plot seems whimsical, the use of the witch figure, producer of incantations and spells, provides a way to illustrate the idea that power to act can been seen as fundamentally linked with our ability to talk. This article attempts to analyse how this discursive agency is built in the text by examining the witch voice in detail, starting from the representation of the witch itself (the issuer) to the space where her words resonate.

This article reflects on the relationship between an author’s digital identity and the creation of literary works. The Author and Me (2012, transl. 2014) by Eric Chevillard, serves as a case study to examine the creative undertaking by which the digital presence of this author reinforces and advances his literary project. The goal is to challenge the authenticity of the real by analyzing the ways in which Chevillard confuses himself with his characters, who are often writers themselves. This confluence of identities becomes more complex as the digital blurs the boundaries between the real and the virtual, allowing Chevillard to use his website, blog and interviews to further undermine the distinction between himself and his persona. Having become protean and ubiquitous, authorial presence is well-positioned to call into question a reader’s biases and explore the stakes of contemporary literature in digitally-mediated culture.

Studying the responsiveness of the local population to issues of public and territorial administration is a complex task which, because of its sensitivity and political importance, not only must be done in strict compliance with the regulations in force, but also requires the adoption of a method duly elaborated with relevant assessment instruments that take into account the historical anchorage and socio-economic issues of the sites. The purpose of the survey was to collect information on how the Smart City project in Rabat addresses issues related to citizen participation as well as the nature of new configurations that territorial management can take with the democratization of the use of ICTs. The article presents the bases and modalities of this investigation.

Objectives – Consultation of internet sources for educational and research purposes is the new normal. As a result of information communication technology, information creation and access are more convenient. The current study was carried out to investigate the proportion of use of internet sources for research purposes by research scholars of three central universities of North East India, namely Tezpur University, Mizoram University, and Rajiv Gandhi University. Methods – The researchers collected data from 123 respondents through an online questionnaire that was distributed through different social media platforms. The study was conducted among Research Scholars (PhD and M.Phil) of Mizoram University, Rajiv Gandhi University, and Tezpur University. Results – The research results show that research communities are moving toward digital platforms for searching and consulting their required resources. Most of the respondents consult internet sources for writing their research reports, but they do not format the references properly. Some research scholars do not follow any referencing style for citing web documents, and respondents do not have much awareness about the differences between URLs and DOIs. Research communities also face problems due to the inaccessibility of online documents cited by former researchers. Conclusion – Since most of the respondents are not familiar with the use of web archives, the current study suggests that higher education institutions should arrange awareness programs on the use of web archives. Research communities should follow the proper referencing formats to acknowledge others’ works. Publishers should mandate a citation style for authors and verify the accuracy of the references before publishing articles or other works.

After the Romanian Revolution (1989), aware of the stake in the initial training for the well-being of the society, teachers began working with the aim of the sustainable development of his partner, the learner, and of oneself. Supported by the researches undertaken by didacticiens and benefiting from the development of ICTS (information and communication technologies), to give a constructive sense to our indignations, we made a commitment in inter-university projects. From electronic exchanges between Romanian and Belgian students, a team of young French speakers was established to develop a project of summer French-speaking School (EFE) for learners from 7 to 22 years old resulting from eleven schools of the region, from the humanitarian association Forum of Onesti and from the University V. Alecsandri of Bacau. During the EFE, the success of which confronts in quantitative participation (112 children, teenagers and young people) and qualitative (posters, articles for the journal) of the students, theater show), we learned about solidarity and contributed to our sustainable development.

Educational hub refers to centres of excellence in higher education and research whose aims are to provide high-quality education for both national and international students to enhance the competitiveness of the country. These educational hubs provide an opportunity for knowledge exchanges and innovation in local regions through education and training. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, rapid shifts were made towards online learning in education around the world. Although the lockdown is over, remote learning will likely play an increasingly prominent role in education. The adoption of scaled remote learning during the pandemic provided evidence of the importance of online learning. They offer an insight into global society, helping prepare students for an increasingly interconnected world by facilitating links between different regions. Educational hubs can be tied to distance learning and are successful in attracting international students when offering a combination of distance learning methods and innovative programs. This paper examines the phenomenon of educational hubs in higher education for international education through online learning with digital technology. New opportunities for online and distance learning within the definition of educational hubs are analyzed, and three online and blended learning models that reflect the development of educational hubs based on COVID-19 conditions of education are offered. In addition, the successful cases and experiences of distance learning hubs in China and Iran in recent years are described.

Objective – NosoBase® is a collection of documentation centres with a national bibliographic database dedicated to infection prevention and control (IPC), with over 20 years of experience in France. As a quality assurance activity, this study was conducted in 2017 with a three-step approach to evaluate the bibliographic database regarding (1) the availability and coverage of citations; (2) the scope and relevance of content; and (3) the quality of the documentation centre services. Methods – The three-step quality approach involved (1) evaluating the availability and coverage of citations in NosoBase® by searching for the bibliographic citations of three systematic reviews on hand hygiene practices, published recently in three different peer-reviewed international journals; (2) evaluating the scope and relevance of content in NosoBase® by searching for all documents from 2015 indexed in NosoBase® under hand hygiene related keywords, and analyzing according to publication language, document type (e.g., legislation, research, or guidelines), and target audience; and 3) evaluating the strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities of the documentation centre services, with interviews involving the librarians. Results – NosoBase® contained 70.8%-80.9% of references directly concerning hand hygiene cited by the three systematic reviews. Of the 200 articles indexed in NosoBase® under hand hygiene related keywords in 2015, 22.5% were French language based, with a significant representation of French non-indexed literature. The analysis of the documentation centre services highlighted future opportunities for growth, building on the strengths of experience and collaborations, to improve marketing and usability, targeting francophone IPC professionals. Conclusion – Specialized bibliographic databases may be useful and time efficient for the retrieval of relevant specialized content. NosoBase® has significant relevance to French and francophone healthcare professionals in its representation of French documentation and healthcare literature not otherwise indexed internationally. NosoBase® needs to highlight its resources and adapt its services to allow easier access to its content.

In 2018, the artisan craftsmanship behind the Fourme de Montbrison was listed in the inventory of intangible cultural heritage of France. After Salers in 2016, it is the second cheese, in France, to obtain this type of heritage recognition. This blue-veined AOC-certified cheese, made from raw or pasteurized cow's milk, is one of the trailblazing cheese products in the process of associating heritage (especially intangible heritage) with local development. With this new “label,” which gives this product visibility beyond the borders of Forez and the Loire, local actors are activey playing the «food and culinary heritage» card to develop their territory. Invested with a role beyond its primary nutritional functions, this product seems to be perceived as a response to many issues. Whether it is a question of the values carried by this local product, the expected performativity, the commodification and the mobilization of heritage for economic purposes, this trend questions the notion of heritage. We present here the first elements of an ongoing study rich in paradoxes: the stages of the adding to heritage the Fourme de Montbrison and the understanding of the phenomenon through the deciphering of heritage discourses.
