This book is a contribution to the growing body of research in variational pragmatics and in postcolonial pragmatics, two emergent frameworks in cross-cultural pragmatics. Variational pragmatics studies pragmatic phenomena in regional varieties of the same language from a comparative perspective. Postcolonial pragmatics examines patterns of pragmatic phenomena in postcolonial spaces. The study focuses on the realization patterns of compliments and compliment responses and politeness strategies used in performing both speech acts in Cameroon French and in Canadian French.

Que se passerait-il si suite à un incident majeur, qui aurait pu être celui de Fukushima récemment, la planète financière s'écroulait vraiment ? Si les Etats ne pouvaient plus tenir leurs rôles ? Si les individus étaient livrés à eux-mêmes, sans limites ni valeurs ? Un scénario catastrophe captivant auquel la profonde réflexion de François Lefort sur l'Homme donne une épaisseur magistrale. Et une réflexion à mener impérativement en tant que civilisation, mortelle, comme le rappelait à juste titre Paul Valéry.

Raoul de Cambrai is one of the most violent and passionate Old French poems of the cycle of barons in revolt. The three relations that structure medieval society - companionship, feudalism, and the family - are here seen in crisis. Conflicts of interest, and the competition for resources,result in social disintegration, wholesale loss of life, and the collapse of authority. The poem, probably composed around the turn of the thirteenth century, results from successive reworkings that weave a many-layered commentary on its own moral and political themes. This first edition for over ahundred years draws on important manuscript material unknown to the text's previous editors. It is prefaced by a scholarly introduction and accompanied by an annotated translation into English prose.
